2018 NISSAN ROGUE — Complaint #2130873

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:INSTRUMENT PANEL:FUEL GAUGE:FUEL LEVEL FLOAT/SENSOR/SENDING UNIT filed September 16, 2025

NHTSA complaint #2130873 (ODI reference 11687645) concerns a 2018 NISSAN ROGUE and was filed on September 16, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on July 16, 2025. The vehicle had 70,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to New York based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electrical system:instrument panel:fuel gauge:fuel level float/sensor/sending unit, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same NISSAN ROGUE cohort independently describe similar electrical system:instrument panel:fuel gauge:fuel level float/sensor/sending unit failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2018 NISSAN ROGUE shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
