Example complaints

Fuel system: “2011 Infiniti fx 35 - dealer recommends the replacement of the fuel sender & A/C amp for $1,765.09. My research reveals that this issue/part has been a concern since 2003 (nissan/Infiniti) - I have a 2011. Basically the gas gauge no longer works therefore the driver doesn't know when gas is needed. This morning 1/31/2020 I was on my way to work and got 6 doors away from my home and my car stopped in the middle of the street - out of gas and I had to call aaa to bring me gas so I could get to the gas station. …”
