Consumer Description

THE RANGE METER ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE DASH SHOWS INCORRECT RANGE. I UNDERSTOOD WHEN PEOPLE WOULD SAY IT DEPENDS ON HOW YOU DRIVE, BUT NO MATTER HOW I DRIVE THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY FOR ME TO GET THE RANGE THE CAR SAYS I HAVE. IF IT SHOWS 55 MILES I CAN BE SURE TO GET BETWEEN 20 AND 35 MILES BEFORE BEING STRANDED. I CONTACTED NISSAN FOR A WARRANTY OR SERVICE CONCERN AND THEY CLAIMED IT NOT TO BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT.
