    Several months ago the check engine light in my 2003 nissan frontier xe came on. I took the vehicle to a local repair shop and was informed that the fuel tank was rusting at the top. This caused air to enter the system making the check engine light go on. I had to have the tank replaced to pass state inspection. *tr

    When my 2007 frontier reached a little over 50k miles, noticed service engine soon light coming on. Stayed on, turned truck on and off, noticed last time that the gauges all shook a little before engine started, now when to start again to take another child to school and engine won't start at all, makes click click sound and all gauges shake, see many similar complaints, looks like this needs a recall!!!!!!!!!!! *tr

Nissan has a service bulletin out about this very issue but still refuses to do a recall on what they admit is a bad sensor. I have had this diagnosed for free at aamco,(p0463 is…
