| Description of the problem | Fuel level sending unit inside the fuel tank is out on my 2006 nissan xterra. This is under recall on certain model/year nissans and mine is having the same problem. Not sure why mine is not included in this recall as my service engine light has been on for three months as the cost of repair is over $600 as the entire gas tank has to be removed (had light "read" and problem was fuel sending unit". |
