Fuel gauge says empty when 100 miles are on the gas tank. My local nissan dealer, elhart, told me they would have to charge me 5 hours of labor to remove the gas tank to "diagnose" the problem, even though the fuel guage sensors are accessible under the rear seat for replacement. Also,this is a very common problem with all nissans - quests do have a recall on it, but no other nissan, even though they all use the same faulty gas guage.
