| Description of the problem | I have a 2007 frontier king cab nismo with 56,000 miles on it. Put fuel in it today and the fuel gauge will not rise above half full. Then the check engine soon light came on. A few miles later the gauge plunged to empty with the low fuel light on. On my return trip the gauge moved up to half with the service engine soon light on. It appears from my research that the fuel sending unit is bad and that numerous owners are experiencing this same expensive issue. Apparently this can cause the fuel to stop being sent and potentially lead to a serious accident. My call to the deal will be tomorrow am. This should be a recall issue as xterra's were recalled for this same issue in prior model years. Just two weeks ago i had a abs sensor replaced at $400. The rear end was dropped at two weeks old to fix another sensor and on and on. This truck has not been reliable and i would not recommend any nissan product at this point! It does not go more than 2 months without something going wrong with it. Help! |
