I backed out of driveway towards the south to head north on public way. Vehicle immediately started accelerating backwards (south) without assistance, quickly getting out of control. No amount of pressure on my part would make the brakes work and there was no control of the steering. The vehicle was no longer under my control and crashed backwards into a large tree which held it from crashing farther, and a small tree on the side which held it from rolling down into a brook. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request and I would prefer that it be inspected. No vehicles or pedestrians were in the street when the vehicle lost all control without human assistance. The passenger is front passenger seat was taken to ER and has since been seeing a doctor. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or other service center. The police were at scene of accident right after it occurred. No lights, messages, or other symptoms gave any warning before the vehicle started racing and immediately went out of control with no control over speed, brakes or steering The consumer provided photos and police report.

The fuel gauge shows an incorrect reading. The indicator shows that it is empty even when I refuel it with full tank. The car stops on the road as the fuel shows an incorrect reading which poses a dangerous threat. I have got the fuel pump replaced three times. It is very frustrating to spend so much time and money and not getting the issue fixed. The car also failed inspection because of this issue. There is a recall for 2007-2008-2009 Nissan Quests' but my 2008 Nissan Quest is not included in the recall!

Takata recall my van has left us in the middle of the road multiple times at least 4. when ever it gets to a quarter tank of gas we get worried. It says we still have fuel but in fact is empty. I saw online that our van year has a recall but this website shows there is nothing for our van. It worries us because we have our kids in the vehicle normally and the last thing we need is for someone to hit us because we ran out of gas. We have been at stop lights and it just dies. We have been in motion and it just dies. My wife worked night shift and 3 am she was trying to come home and it was no fuel in it. I put the last date it happened below.

Nissan recalled certain VIN for fuel gauge malfunction. My fuel gauge does not work at all, and my engine light is on all the time. I live in temperatures in AZ that can exceed 125 degrees, so if I run out of gas, this could be a very serious situation.

Car ran out of gas with gauge reading 77 miles to empty. I have a mailing form Nissan North America, Inc-- with my name, address, make and model of car, VIN number -- stating that there is this exact problem and that they will fix the issue at no charge. Yet-- when I talk to the dealership as well as 1800 nissan1-- both explain that there is no recall on the van at all and that I must pay $130 to have the vehicle looked at and then for the repair. I don't understand how they are not aware of the mailing they sent me. I cannot add the letter to this complaint-- but have it should you wish for me to email it to you or send a photo. I am taking a long distance trip in this van with my 3 children and am very upset. They keep telling me they have no record of this. How is it possible that I have had this same issue and they mailed me the letter informing me of this exact issue" big coincidence" please help.

Inaccurate fuel gauge - my wife's Nissan Quest 2008 came to a complete stall in the middle of the road, while the fuel gauge was showing 70 miles left to empty. The regular dashboard gauge, also showed some level of gas. In reality, the tank had no gas at all. We confirmed that when, after some people's help, we were able to manually put some gas to arrive to the nearest gas station. My wife was in the car with the kids and it was a scary moment, to say the least. This was the second time it happened (unnoticed the reason the first time). Contacted Nissan Consumer Affairs and brought the car to a Nissan dealer for diagnostics. They validated that the car run out of gas with 66 miles left to empty on the display. Nissan Consumer Affairs doesn't consider this a defect nor decided to include the car under the recalls they had for this issue. They suggested that I upfront the cost of fixing this defect. This is a dangerous situation, as you cannot rely on the instruments to read levels of gas and the car can stall at higher speeds, causing significant injuries.
