2006 Nissan XTERRA Fuel Propulsion System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	979703
Internal NHTSA #	10511331
Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	XTERRA
Model Year	2006
File date	26/04/13
Component	FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The fuel gauge displays the fuel level incorrectly due to the fuel gauge sending unit sensor being faulty. This problem causes the "check engine" light to come on. Since the fuel gauge reads incorrectly, it is very difficult to know how much fuel is in the tank. This should be a recall issue since this has happened on numerous years of nissan vehicles. I spoke with a mechanic and was informed they would have to completely uninstall the fuel module to repair the issue and would cost $900. When i call the nissan dealership (continental nissan anchorage) they say they there isn't a recall for this issue.
