What owners wrote

Purchased a 2004 350z touring model brand new in march 2004. Unable to put gasoline into tank. Automatic function on gas pump activates no matter how fast you attempt to insert fuel. Experienced same problem at numerous service stations. Fuel tank is being replaced.

May 2004

The fuel gauge en the speedoometer does not tell the correct amount of gas in the car. It says there is fuel when the care is actually empty causing me to get out of gas for several times. I took it to the dealership and they told me the only way to repare it is to change the whole speedometer, and that the cost of it is almost a $1,000.00. This is a lot of trouble for me because I have to fill up the car every 2 to 3 days so the car doesn,t leave me with out fuel.
