Can't fill up with gas sometimes?!
Occasionally when I'm putting gas in my car, it seems to be telling the nozzle that the gas tank is full, but I know its not.. and when I check the gas level when I turn the car on, it proves its not full.. any ideas on whats causes this?
And occasionally my service engine soon light comes on but goes off a day or two later? Connected i'm assuming...?
Thanks guys.

There's a recall on this issue if you still have a warranty and then sometimes it's the fault of the nozzle at the gas station. When that happens just keep mess'in with it until it's to the top of the filler. Heat and expansion make it difficult to fill the tank too but since we're into cold/winter that shouldn't be a factor.

Check the fuel tank vent it could be plugged. My company truck does the same thing when it is lower than a quarter tank. I found out that the vent was stopped up cuz we ride on alot of dirt and mud roads. I doubt that yours is doing it because of mud. Buy could be stopped up from road grime. Just an idea.

Yeah I have the exact same issue I think the shape of the gas tank is flawed because I fill it to 35 litres, and it shuts of as if it's full. I shake the car and it seems to even out the air in the tank then you can keep filling, I didn't know it was a recall though, good to know gonna have Infiniti fix it.

I had the problem of my tank only filling up three-quarters of the way each time I got gas. So I took it to the dealership who fixed it under warranty. Drove for months without any issues. End of story, right? WRONG! Now it's happening again. It's not as bad as before, but I can only fill up about seven-eighths of my tank. I've tried repositioning the nozzle, but it mades no difference. And, of course car is now out of warranty.
Since the problem originally happened under warranty, so you think the dealership will cover their original repair? Or am I screwed?
Thanks,
