Description of the problem	After filling my vehicle up with fuel, the gauge still read one quarter tank, and it took most of the day before the gauge slowly moved up to read full. After that, when the tank would reach 1/2 full, the gauge would start acting crazy. One minute it would read 1/2 full, the next second it would read empty and my gas light would come on. Also, at half full down to one quarter full, the service engine soon light would come on. When i discovered that there was a recall on my year and model vehicle, i called nissan to inquire, but was told that due to my vin # my vehicle was not covered. The problem i was having with my fuel gauge is exactly the same problem that the recall covered, and the parts that i had to have replaced are the same parts that the recall covered. I had to pay $300 to have my vehicle repaired, when obviously the part covered in the recall was also defective in my vehicle.
