| Description of the problem | 2006 nissan pathfinder fuel level sensor has been diagnosed as having failed. Nissan has a recall on some 2006 pathfinders' fuel level sensor, but my vin is not on the list. Having a vehicle with a faulty fuel level sensor is a safety hazard in that one could run out of fuel and cause an accident if the fuel gauge is reading that there is fuel in the tank. Every nissan pathfinder with this problem should be fixed by nissan no matter the vin. There are many other pathfinder owners who have experienced this same issue according to edmund's town talk and autoforums classifieds 1000. |
