What good would a fuel shut off do?

it shuts off the fuel if it senses an accident. that way you arent continuously leaking fuel if something got cut or broken open. leaking fuel is all bad, and a potential fire hazard. however, sometimes if your vehicle thinks you got in an accident it will shut off your fuel and you have to manually turn it back on

Call his local Nissan dealer.....Tell them his brand new car is stuck on the freeway and they need to come pick the thing up and fix it!! Abviously your friend just spent some dough and they need to come and the get the thing, and work the bugs out of it......:scared1:

I understand now.

I originally thought that it was a switch the USER could flip and shut the fuel off.

^^ my '99 had a manual switch... I'm assuming the Grab-Her does too but I haven't found it (and haven't looked).

I know what good it is for an accident but why shut if off if he's pulled over on the freeway?? Or are you thinking it shut itself off and you wanna turn it back on??

You can, when changing fuel filters or working on the fuel system.

Step 1: Call your nissan dealer
Step 2: tell them that your brand new Nissan broke down on the freeway
Step 3: Tow into nissan dealer
Step 4: Have the vehicle fixed under warranty
Step 5: Enjoy your just repaired car

Ok well hes a dumbass and it was just outa gas. Needless to say I drove all the way down there to sock him in the face :)

DisturbedESV 08-16-2009 11:32 PM

Why doesn't that surprise me? :-x

Roach2004 08-16-2009 11:41 PM

Those new 370Z's are some sweet ass rides I dont like the 350's though they are almost the same exact car! I would still rather have a G37!
