| Description of the problem | My vehicle stalled on me while showing a quarter of a tank of gas when in fact it was empty. We had to have the gas pump sending unit changed out because it was not working correctly. A part that was recalled back in 2014 and replaced under the campaign# 647389. We bought this vehicle from a trade in at a car dealership and this was the first week we drove it, so i find it hard to believe that the replacement part just went out. So the recall replacement part was not any better than the original part seeing it didn't last even four years. I am just glad i was on a country road and not the interstate at the time. We contacted nissan about the situation and they refused to cover the bill to fix it. They said they did the recall work. What good is a recall if the replacement part is no better? Thank you. *js |
