 Description of the problemI own a 2007 nissan frontier xe pick up. After filling up with gas on 2/28/2010 i noticed that my fuel gauge did not move to the full mark. The fuel gauge eventually (after about 30 minutes of driving) began to move to about the 3/4 full mark. My wife took the vehicle into the dealer on 3/1/2010 for a strange engine noise and to determine the problem with the fuel gauge. The service manager from the dealer informed me that there was a problem with the fuel gauge sending unit. I authorized the dealer to complete the repair,(3/3/2010) the cost was $474. 38. The next day a friend called to tell me that they heard of a nhtsa recall on certain nissan models regarding the fuel gauge malfunctioning. I consulted your website and in reading the summary of the recall discovered that it was very similar if not exact to the symptoms my vehicle had demonstrated. I called nissan and furnished my vin fully expecting my vehicle to be included in the recall. Unfortunately nissan insisted my vin was not covered in the recall. I appealed within their company asking them to consider covering the cost of the repair since the defect so closely mirrored the recall even though my vin was technically excluded from the recall. They refused to offer any assistance towards my repair costs. I realize that i am asking a large company to show integrity since they are secure that my vin is excluded, but i thought they would honor my request given the nature of my repair and the recall. Is there anything nhtsa can do to assist me in this? It seems a shame that even though my vehicle demonstrated nearly exact symptoms of the recall, they can deny responsibility because for whatever reason my vin is not included in the recall at this time.
