    2005 NISSAN XTERRA - SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT COMES ON, THEN FUEL GAUGE DROPS TO ZERO. LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF APPARENTLY IN RELATION TO AMOUNT OF GAS IN THE TANK. SEARCHED "SERVICE ENGINE SOON GAS GAUGE" AND TOP OF THE LIST WERE DOZENS OF NISSAN OWNERS' COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE VERY SAME PROBLEM. *TR

    2005 XTERRA FUEL GAUGE FAILURE. GAUGE SHOWS EMPTY WHEN FULL AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. DEALER WANTS $550 TO FIX. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT AND SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE SUBJECT OF RECALL. IF A WOMAN WAS ALONE LATE AT NIGHT AND THE GAS GAUGE SUDDENLY SHOWED EMPTY SHE WOULD BE FORCED TO STOP AT THE NEAREST STATION WHICH MAY NOT BE IN THE SAFEST AREA. I KNOW, BECAUSE I WORK NEAR AN AIRPORT IN A HIGH CRIME AREA. *TR

    I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. THE VEHICLE IS WELL-MAINTAINED. RECENTLY, AFTER SERVICE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND REMAINED ON FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. I NOTICED THAT MY GAS GAUGE WASN'T RESPONDING WHEN I FILLED UP THE FUEL TANK. MY FUEL GAUGE WOULD READ 1/4 TANK AFTER FILLING UP, AND THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT WOULD COME ON. *TR

    WE EXPERIENCED A FAILED FUEL LEVEL SENSOR ON OUR 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. WE FILLED THE GAS TANK COMPLETELY AND THEN NOTICED THE FUEL GAUGE WOULD NOT RISE ABOVE 2/3. THEN THE 'SERVICE ENGINE SOON' WARNING LAMP CAME ON. AFTER RESEARCHING THE INCIDENT WE FOUND THERE ARE MANY SIMILAR INCIDENTS POSTED ON THE INTERNET. THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH SEVERAL NISSAN VEHICLES MODELS AND SEEMS TO BE AN INEVITABLE INCIDENT WITH MOST OF THE MODELS. WE BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE. THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE PART WILL COST BETWEEN $300 - $400. *TR
