| Description of the problem | My check engine son light came on, i went to autozone and i was told the error code stated fuel sending unit/sensor. I was told that nissan recommends you keep a half a tank of gas in the tank. My xterra guage is very unpredictable 90% of the time even when i fill the tank up the guage doesn't register, and it's stuck on e with the gas light on constantly, which has caused me a single mother of 3 to run out of gas twice. I have done some research and found that there was a voluntary recall, but i've been told that there wasn't. I also live in a city where there is emissions testing which i can't pass because of the check engine light, i cannot receive my vehicle tag, which means i can't work or drive. I would like this sensor replaced at no charge to me because as reading online there has been 53,000 people with the same issue. I would like to know what are my options and the next step i can take to get this resolved. *tt |
