Description of the problem	I am a 64 yr old woman driving across the country alone when my fuel gauge indicated i have gas when i did not. Luckily i was not in traffic. This is a dangerous situation when in the remote areas that i travel in utah where gas stations can be 100 miles apart and no cell coverage. I had only 67365 miles on the vehicle and didnt expect to have problems. I found that 2006 xterras were recalled for those made in a 3 month period, however my vehicle is 2 months prior to their voluntary recall. Same gas tank and sending unit as those recalled. (campaign id #: pc042 nhtsa #: 10v-075) i am guessing nissan did a partial voluntary recall in hopes the nhtsa wouldnt investigate the issue. Now the fuel gauge shows half a tank just after a fillup and then gradually jumps to full after the vehicle sits or is driven for a bit. The engine light stays on unless cleared. Diagnostic scan was done which indicated code p0463 which is defined as a fuel level sensor sensor high circuit input,
