Medium riskHealth Canada

An official Health Canada notice concerns Infiniti - Nissan. Certain vehicles may experience fuel gauge errors. The gauge may read higher than the actual level in the gas tank, or always indicate full. As such, the vehicle could run out of gas without notice. Engine stalling would result in lost vehicle propulsion which, in conjunction with traffic and road condition, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will modify the electrical circuit for the instrument gauge cluster. Published 2012-05-07.
