Fuel gauge shows empty when its full or vise versa. Gauge does not work because fuel tank has warped and float wont read it properly. Nissan is aware of their problem but nissan in reno nv wants $400.00 to fix it. Their faulty parts and they wont stand behind them. Weak. *tr

I was told that my vehicle does not have a recall due to the vin but yet when i went on the safecar.gov website and the issue's that i am having with my truck is what is on the list. What i don't understand why the place that i get it repair will not honor this. I have the abs/vdc wheel speed sensor and the fuel gauge issues. *js

My vehicle no longer registers how much fuel is in my tank because of a faulty fuel sending unit. I ran out of gas on the freeway. Why wasn't a recall issued to fix the known problem? Stalled vehicles pose a hazard. *tr

After filling up my gas tank, the fuel gauge stayed on empty when i started my 2007 frontier. As i was driving along the highway, the gauge slowly moved to the full position (roughly an hour after fill-up) yesterday, 7/14/13 i filled up- thinking the previous incident was a fluke. This time the check engine light came on(still on) and the gauge is only at half a tank. The local nissan dealer quoted me $500.00 to fix…

Nissan extended a limited warranty for a fuel gauge sending unit which displays incorrect amount of fuel. My nissan has passed the year of extended warranty not the miles. So nissan failed my "hardship request" that they sent my case through. Though i did not have any problems with the fuel sending unit until after the warranty expired, nissan's decision was to deny my fix. I don't see how i can report a problem if…

The fuel gauge has issues with proper amount of fuel in tank. The service engine light on with a po0643 code. The 2006 and 2008 models are covered by a recall, but not the 2007 for the same exact problem with the same parts being used. Something must be done! *tr

The check engine light came on while starting the truck. It was place on the diagnostic machine and the result was that a sensor in the gas tank was not working. I received a recall notice one week after the warranty had expired. The notice stated that the warranty would take care of the problem. I emailed nissan to complain and never heard from them. *tr

2007 nissan frontier at 54k mile check engine light came on with the error code p0463 (fuel sending units failure). Found out that this problem is also happened to the 06 and 08 nissan frontier that was on the safety recalled list. The check engine light light up on (p0463) and gas gauge indicator will drop to empty fuel even still at 1/4 full, due to the defective sending units nissan manufactured. I am hoping that…
