I pulled into the gas station and filled up like i normally do. When i started my engine, my gas gauge did not climb past the 1/4 mark. I turned my truck on and off 2 more times to see if this might fix the problem, it did not. As i drove home, the gauge climbed ever so slowly before stopping at 1/2 tank. This is when the check engine light came on. I got home and googled the problem and this seems to be a fairly…

The fuel sending unit on my 2007 nissan frontier went bad at 74,000 miles. Nissan has declined to repair it as it is out of the warranty period. However this is such a common and well documented problem, the 2007 frontiers should be included in the recall that is available for some of the '06 and '08 frontiers. *tr

I turned on the car, at which point the needle did not register the full tank. After driving a couple miles, the check engine light came on. I went directly to the dealer and was told that it was a fuel sending unit/sensor and that it was no longer covered after 30k miles. After returning home and doing research, i went online to x.nissanhelp.com after performing a search, i came across many others who have…

Check engine light comes on with error code p0463. This is due to a faulty fuel level sensor. This has been a problem with nissan and the previous models with the same issue were recalled. This failure causes the vehicle to be out of compliance with texas laws and will not pass annual inspection without repair. *tr

I have a 2007 nissan frontier. I ran out of gas despite my fuel gauge showing that i had a little less then 1/4 tank of gas left in the tank. I see that there was a recall for 2006 and 2008 vehicles but not the 2007. Have there been any other complaints for this problem for 2007? My gas gauge takes a long time to get back up to full and my check engine light stays on. I make certain that the gas cap is on tight…

The fuel gauge malfunctioned it would indicate that it was empty eventhough the tank was full. I talked to service manager, he says that nissan would not cover repair because it was not a recall item. Nissan did have a recall on the same item for the 2006 and 2008 models. They could not explain why the 2007 models were not included. *tr

Service engine soon (ses) light is on constantly. Fuel system reads erratic levels - when it reaches approx 1/4 to 3/8 of a tank, the fuel gauge drops to the bottom and the light comes on, as though the tank were empty. The truck reports p0463 code. *tr

I have a 2007 nissan frontier, and the gas tank sensor failed like so many others from 2005 to 2010. I ran out of gas the first time and it stopped so suddenly i almost got rear ended. I called nissan and they said that my vin number doesn't fall in the recall list. I am on forums and everyone is having issues with this but they are only picking a few to fix. This is wrong. Anyways now when i fill it up it goes to…

Nissan frontier 2007, service bulletin notes defective fuel gauge sensor and this can give a false fuel level and cause breakdown on highway. Sb # ntb07-069b and they will not honor this as a recall need. Defective fuel gauge is a dangerous item when traveling on highways at night. Please push nissan to recall / improve these units. *tr

I am having an issue with the fuel gauge on my 2007 nissan frontier king cab. First off when my tank would get to just under a quarter my check engine light would come on and i would have to disconnect and reconnect the battery to make the light go away. Now my gauge reads empty on a full tank of gas and the low fuel light and check engine light are on. This first happened right after filling my gas tank up all the…

If left idling longer than 3 minutes (+-), the gas gauge drops to "e" and warning lot comes on. After fill-up, the gas gauge will not move for approx. 120 miles, after which i assume it is accurate. *tr

Fuel level sensor. Service engine soon light came on. The gas gauge stopped working and sometimes creeps up. Not sure how much gas is in the truck. Sometimes it is full and sometimes it goes to half and other times it just drops to empty. *tr

I own a 2007 nissan frontier se 4x4 crew cab pickup. I purchased the aforementioned vehicle new in 2007. Recently the "service engine soon" warning light came on. Shortly after the warning light came on i began to notice my fuel gauge needle dropping to empty or near empty when i knew i had at least 1/4 tank of gasoline. If i shut the engine off and started it back up the fuel gauge needle would indicate 1/4 tank,…

Fuel gauge showed that i had a quarter tank but i ran out of gas. Went to station and filled up and gauge still showed 1/4 tank. On 8/2, gauge finally reported that i had 3/4 tank of gas which was probably close to what was in my tank. In doing some research, it appears this is a common problem for nissan frontiers, but my year (2007) does not show up in the recall database. *tr

On or about 7-15-10, i filled the fuel tank in my 2007 nissan frontier se crew cab to capacity. Within seconds of starting and driving the vehicle afterwards, the "service engine" warning light came on and my fuel gauge indicator dropped to the half-full mark. It has been erratic since that event and has not properly indicated how much fuel remains in the tank. On 7-16-10, i took the vehicle to the dealer from which…

I have a 2007 frontier and had a problem with the fuel gauge. I filled the truck and the gas gauge went to empty. After driving for 10-15 minutes it would float up to near the full mark, but then it would drop back down to half full. This failure caused the check engine light to come on and this in turn automatically failed my emissions test. *tr
