Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“After a refuel, I noticed the gas was being auto stopped before what I know to be full based on length of time pumping and cost. After driving several days the gas meter did not lose notches despite the mileage showing a decrease in available miles. I am concerned I will be driving and run out of gas at a dangerous time due to not being able to read an accurate fuel level. I took the vehicle to Orr Nissan west in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma where they confirmed the discrepancy and they stated this is an issue they have being seeing nationwide.”
