2005–2009 Infiniti QX56 & 2005–2009 Nissan Armada + 1 more recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2005-2009 Titan, Armada, and infiniti QX56 vehicles. The instrument panel fuel gauge may inaccurately display that the vehicle still has some fuel, typically about one quarter tank, when the fuel tank is empty.
💥 The risk
This could cause the vehicle to run out of gas and stall on the highway, which could cause a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the fuel sender unit inside the fuel tank with a new improved sender card. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on march 22, 2010. Owners may contact nissan at 1-800-647-7261.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
