| Description of the problem | While driving thursday, february 14th, 2019, my check engine light came on. I pulled over in a nearby parking lot as soon as i could. At this point, i noticed that my fuel gauge had dropped from 1/4 tank down to empty. I used an odb2 scanner to check my error codes, and found an error code p0463 (fuel tank level sensor - voltage high). I immediately proceeded to a gas station, refueled, and cleared the engine code to see if it would reappear. It has not since reappeared. After some research, i found that this is a known issue for 2008 nissan pathfinders, and that there is a recall associated with the issue. The nhtsa campaign id is 10v075000. I called nissan's public number and a local dealership owned service center. Neither found any active recalls regarding my vehicle, and neither knew what a nhtsa campaign id number was. I asked to speak to the manager of the service center. I left a voice mail for them thursday afternoon, but have not heard back. Based on the symptoms my vehicle is experiencing, i believe my vehicle is likely suffering from the same issue as described in the aforementioned nhtsa campaign, and that my vehicle, and likely others, were missed in the recall. |
