Infiniti JX35 RFecall, False Gas Gauge Readings

Vehicle Make / Model:     Model Year(s):
     INFINITI JX35     2013
Manufacturer: NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC. Mfr's Report Date: AUG 13, 2012
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number: 12V398000 NHTSA Action Number: N/A
Component: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY
Potential Number of Units Affected: 7,842
Summary:
Nissan is recalling certain model year 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles manufactured from February 15, 2012, through June 22, 2012. Due to an assembly issue, the fuel transfer tube may be misrouted inside the fuel tank. As a result, the fuel level float may be prevented from dropping as the fuel is consumed and the fuel guage may read a fuel level higher than actually exists.
Consequence:
If the fuel guage does not accurately show when the tank is becoming empty, the vehicle may run out of gas unexpectedly, stalling, and increasing the risk of a crash.
