| Description of the problem | Last year, 10/29/12, i noticed my gas gauge showing empty when i had slightly more than 1/4 tank of gas, but needle moved once truck warmed up and started moving. Then last month the check engine light came on. Nissan is telling me i have to pay roughly $600. 00 to fix the fuel level sensor (code p0463). My truck has not even 38,000 miles on it. Now i didn't pass inspection. I strongly believe that nissan should be responsible for this repair and recall due to this part. |
