I had my fuel senders replaced last week after three different trips to the dealer regarding this issue. The last light has been out for 4-5 tanks in a row before I had it replaced. Before that, it was working intermittently.

The service advisor said that the fuel sender was bent, hence not reading all the way full. Which is strange because they didn't say anything about a bent sender when they took it apart the first time. I hope this fixes it.

More Problems
 

:tup:Starting to get crazy readings on gas just like everyone else.... seriously doubt that Techron has anything to do with it.

P.S. Mazda, Ford, BMW, Audi, and now my Nissan all have fuel problems :0):ughdance::happydance:

I've noticed the same problem recently. I thought maybe the pump shut off early and I didn't realize it but I don't think that is the case. :confused:

Apologies for bringing back an old thread, just for updating purposes.

When I bought my car, the dealership filled it up. I noticed the last LED wasn't lit, I wasn't about to complain since I figured the gas card must max out at 50 bucks or something. Just filled it up Sunday and noticed the last LED still wasn't lit.

It actually makes me laugh that something this stupid went wrong. Depending on how I feel about it in the next month, I may take it into the dealership.

i didnt take mine in until i had 2 lights that didnt light up and now everything is all good

Me Too!
 

I had defective Fuel senders @ 8k on my '09.
Problem is, if the Tech doesn't "see" the issue himself, they are hesitant to fix it.
The dealer spent a few hours "inspecting" the car, and didn't find anything so I drove to a local gas station with a Tech sitting shotgun and he saw with his own eyes the fuel gauge not liighting up. The Service Advisor had no choice but to order the parts and ok the fix :tiphat::driving:

P.S. This was a big problem on the 350z's and a buddy of mine went thru 3 sender units within 36k mi. warranty and at 38k it failed again. Once his gauge hits mid tank, it just drops

PPS... you'll be surprised how inaccurate it gets... I almost ran it dry with 2 dots lit. :stirthepot::eekdance:

Dammit! This issue just came up this morning. Last dot doesn't light up.

i didnt have that problem...told them i had fuel sender issues, they ordered the part and replaced it.
didnt have to go through proving to them that i had the issue.

:wtf: I drove it this afternoon and fixed it itself. I guess it was a fluke.

it WILL come back

Yeah.. that's the 1st sign of a problem....shows up then maybe later in the day it goes away.

I'm sorry, i hope you are still under warranty:shakes head:

:iagree:

My lights usually come all the way back up after at least 24 hours.

Yup, still under warranty. I also have the extended warranty. This kind of sucks though. I hate having to get warranty work done.
