| Description of the problem | Check engine light on, took car to local shop to read codes, showed fuel sensor issue. Gas gauge is all over the place. It shows full when empty, empty when full, and some in between. This appears to be a common issue, my vin # shows no recalls or none that are covered over 72k miles?? What a disappointment in nissan! Would hate to run out of gas in -29 degrees with the kids and freeze trying to get home but i guess that is not a safety issue and "not worth mentioning". |
