MY WIFE RAN OUT OF FUEL ON THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING OUR 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER. I CALLED NISSAN SINCE A VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR THE FUEL GAUGE NOT WORKING WAS ISSUED BY NISSAN, SEE: HTTP://WWW.NISSANASSIST.COM/WEB/FUEL-SENDING-UNIT/PROGRAMDETAILS.PHP?MENU=3 NOW THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT THE RECALL ENDED IN FEB 2013, I BOUGHT THE TRUCK USED IN 2012 WITH 36,000 MILES ON IT. THE LETTER THAT NISSAN PUBLISHED SPECIFIES THAT THE WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED TO 72,000 MILES WITHOUT A YEAR SPECIFIED ON THE LETTER, MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 52,000 MILES AND NISSAN REFUSES TO FIX MY TRUCK. INSTEAD THEY SENT ME TO A DEALER THAT WANTS $500+ TO FIX IT. THIS SHOULD BE A MANDATORY RECALL, MY WIFE COULD HAVE BEEN IN A ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. *TR

GAS GAUGE QUIT WORKING GOES BETWEEN HALF AND QUARTER TANK AND STOPS, LETTING YOU RUN OUT OF GAS. NEXT ITEM IS TIMING CHAIN HOWL ON COLD STARTS FOR OVER A YEAR NOW THEN I READ BULLETIN THAT CHAIN TENSIONERS ARE WEARING AND CAUSING TIMING CHAIN FAILURES AND NISSAN HAS NEVER NOTIFIED OWNERS I WAS JUST IN TO DEALER ABOUT GAS GAUGE PROBLEM ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO AND NO ONE MENTIONED TIMING CHAIN PROBLEM. *TR

Mileage: 52,000

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE STARTING THE TRUCK. IT WAS PLACE ON THE DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE AND THE RESULT WAS THAT A SENSOR IN THE GAS TANK WAS NOT WORKING. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ONE WEEK AFTER THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. THE NOTICE STATED THAT THE WARRANTY WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM. I EMAILED NISSAN TO COMPLAIN AND NEVER HEARD FROM THEM. *TR

AFTER FILLING UP MY GAS TANK, THE FUEL GAUGE STAYED ON EMPTY WHEN I STARTED MY 2007 FRONTIER. AS I WAS DRIVING ALONG THE HIGHWAY, THE GAUGE SLOWLY MOVED TO THE FULL POSITION (ROUGHLY AN HOUR AFTER FILL-UP) YESTERDAY, 7/14/13 I FILLED UP- THINKING THE PREVIOUS INCIDENT WAS A FLUKE. THIS TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON(STILL ON) AND THE GAUGE IS ONLY AT HALF A TANK. THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER QUOTED ME $500.00 TO FIX THE ISSUE ,AND TOLD ME THAT 72,000 MILES WAS THE CUT-OFF FOR THE WARRANTY AGAIN, IT HAS 85,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

Mileage: 85,000

THE FUEL GAUGE HAS ISSUES WITH PROPER AMOUNT OF FUEL IN TANK. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ON WITH A PO0643 CODE. THE 2006 AND 2008 MODELS ARE COVERED BY A RECALL, BUT NOT THE 2007 FOR THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM WITH THE SAME PARTS BEING USED. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE! *TR

IN FEBRUARY OF 2013 MY 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER BEGAN TO DISPLAY A TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. REGARDLESS OF THE TIRE PRESSURE IN EACH TIRE, THE LIGHT REMAINED ON. IT FLASHED WITH ENGINE START UP BEFORE BEING STEADILY ILLUMINATED. ALSO, IN LATE MARCH 2013 THE FUEL GAUGE BEGAN TO INDICATE A PROBLEM. UPON FILLING UP THE VEHICLE'S FUEL TANK THE GAUGES NEEDLE WOULD FALL TO E (EMPTY), THE LOW FUEL INDICATOR LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE, AND THE NEEDLE WOULD REMAIN ON E UNTIL DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20-25 MILES. WHEN THE NEEDLE REACHED F (FULL) THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON (SES) LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND REMAIN ON UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN ENOUGH TO BURN APPROXIMATELY HALF THE TANK OF FUEL. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE ONLINE IT IS APPARENTLY QUITE COMMON WITH NISSAN FRONTIERS, XTERRAS, AND PATHFINDERS IN THIS RANGE OF PRODUCTION YEARS (E.G. 2007). ON JUNE 11, 2013 I FINALLY TOOK THE FRONTIER TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. AN EVALUATION WAS MADE, AND THE SERVICE STAFF IDENTIFIED THE TROUBLE AS BEING A TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR AND FUEL SENDING UNIT FOR THE RESPECTIVE CAUSES OF TROUBLE. MY ONLINE RESEARCH CORROBORATES THIS. I RECEIVED AN ESTIMATE OF APPROXIMATELY $793 FOR REPAIR OF THE TWO COMPONENTS. NISSAN NEEDS TO CONTINUE TO PROVIDE WARRANTY/FREE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT FOR THESE COMPONENTS AS THEY CONTINUE TO BE FAULTY BASED ON COPIOUS INTERNET RESEARCH. BOTH OF THESE FAULTS PRESENT A HAZARD TO DRIVERS AND OCCUPANTS AS THE DISPLAY CENTER, WHICH A DRIVER MAY RELY ON FOR VEHICLE INFORMATION, WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY WHEN NEEDED SO THAT A DRIVER IS NOT CERTAIN WHAT LEVEL OF FUEL IS AVAILABLE IN THE TANK, AND IF/WHEN A TIRE IS LOW OR FLAT. THIS MAY RESULT IN THE DRIVER BEING STRANDED WITHOUT AVAILABILITY OF ASSISTANCE AS WELL AS A VEHICLE ACCIDENT. *TR

AFTER FILLING UP AND ENTIRE TANK OF GAS, MY NEEDLE DROPPED TO EMPTY, AND MY ODOMETER READ -------, NOT READING ANYTHING AT ALL. EVERY FILL UP AFTER, IT IS THE SAME THING. I LOOKED ONLINE AND READ THAT THERE IS AN EPIDEMIC WITH NISSAN AND MY VEHICLE WITH THIS SITUATION, HOWEVER, AFTER GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKING IF THERE WAS A RECALL, I WAS TOLD 'NO' AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET, FOR A COMMON PROBLEM, WITH THE NISSAN FRONTIER/PATHFINDER, FROM THE MANUFACTURER. *TR

THIS REFERS TO MY 07 NISSAN FRONTIER WITH 90K MILES. SINCE AUGUST 2012, FUEL GAUGE IS ERRATIC INDICATING ERRONEOUS FUEL LEVEL. MAY SHOW FUEL WHEN EMPTY OR EMPTY WHEN TANK IF FUEL. POTENTIAL FOR RUNNING OUT OF GAS ON HIGHWAY CREATING HAZARDOUS CIRCUMSTANCE. DIAGNOSTIC CODE IS P0463. INTERNET SEARCH REVEALS MANY WITH SAME PROBLEM ON NISSAN. ALLEGEDLY SAME PROBLEM RESULTED IN RECALL FOR 2006 BUT NOT FOR 2007 MODELS WITH SAME ISSUE. WHY? CUSTOMER SERVICE AT LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND NISSAN MAIN OFFICE NOT PARTICULARLY HELPFUL EXCEPT TO SAY LOCAL DEALER WILL FIX FOR 400-500 PLUS 120 FOR INITIAL DIAGNOSIS. BLATANTLY UNFAIR TO CUSTOMER FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS NOT A WORN OUT PART, IT IS A DEFECTIVE ELECTRICAL FUEL SENSOR SENDING UNIT. *TR

NISSAN EXTENDED A LIMITED WARRANTY FOR A FUEL GAUGE SENDING UNIT WHICH DISPLAYS INCORRECT AMOUNT OF FUEL. MY NISSAN HAS PASSED THE YEAR OF EXTENDED WARRANTY NOT THE MILES. SO NISSAN FAILED MY "HARDSHIP REQUEST" THAT THEY SENT MY CASE THROUGH. THOUGH I DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT UNTIL AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED, NISSAN'S DECISION WAS TO DENY MY FIX. I DON'T SEE HOW I CAN REPORT A PROBLEM IF IT HAS NOT OCCURRED. THE NISSAN OFFICIAL TOLD ME OVER THE PHONE THAT I HAD NOT SPENT ENOUGH MONEY AT THE DEALER SHIP/HAS NOT HAD MY VEHICLE SERVICED THERE ENOUGH THOUGH MY VEHICLE WAS THERE TIMES BEFORE AND I HAD MAINTENANCE PERFORMED AT ANOTHER QUALIFIED SERVICE CENTER. *TR

MY GAS GAUGE BEGAN GIVING BAD READING AFTER DRIVING SEVERAL MILES. WENT TO 1/2 TANK AND STAYED THERE. THIS CONTINUED FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. FILLED THE GAS TANK. THE NEXT DAY THE ENGINE REPAIR LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. CHECKED THE CODE AND IT WAS THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. RESET AND THE LIGHT WENT OUT. UNIT WORKED FINE. NEXT FILL UP THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND THE FUEL GAUGE. KEPT JUMPING AROUND. NOT KNOWING THE AMOUNT OF GAS AND RUNNING OUT AT SPEED WOULD CAUSE LOSE OF STEERING AND BRAKE CONTROL. NISSAN RECALLED THE 2006&2008 MODELS TO FIX. I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT THEY DID NOT USE SAME UNIT IN 2007 MODEL.

SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW. AUTO ZONE CHECKED IT OUT AND STATED IT WAS A FUEL SENDING UNIT FAILURE. I DID NOTICED THE PASS WEEK IT WAS HAVING TROUBLE READING HOW MUCH GAS I HAD LEFT (DTE) I RESEARCHED AND FOUND IT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE FOR OUR VEHICLES. CONTACT UNITED NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND TOLD ME I WAS PASSED THE 72,000 MILE SO IT DOESN'T COVER THE RECALL? I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY WOULD PREDICT WHEN IT WOULD FAIL? I DID NOT RECEIVE A NOTICE OF THIS RECALL OR I WOULD HAVE HAD IT DONE WEATHER I DID HAVE THE PROBLEM OR NOT. ITS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR OUR VEHICLES SO WHY PUT A MARK ON WHEN IT IS COVERED? ITS NOT FAIR FOR THOSE EXPERIENCE THE PROBLEM AFTER. CONTACT NISSAN CONSUMER USA AND STATED THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE " NISSAN FRONTIER" WHICH MAKES NO SENSE TO ME. SO NO HELP THERE... ILL NEVER BUY A NISSAN EVER AGAIN VERY POOR ON ASSISTING THEIR CUSTOMERS. WE NEED A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ON THESE GUYS ITS A COMMON PROBLEM FIX IT!!! *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME ON THE EXPRESSWAY HWY 75 SOUTH DOWNTOWN ATLANTA GA AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY TRUCK JUST STOPPED RUNNING. I MANAGE TO COST TO THE SIDE OF THE EXPRESSWAY. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE TRUCK I CALLED FOR HELP. HAD THE TRUCK TOWN TO A LOCAL SHOP ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT IT RAN OUT OF GAS. THE CULPRIT A FAULTY FUEL GAUGE A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2007 FRONTIER MODELS. I CONTACTED NISSAN TO HAVE IT REPLACE BUT I WAS TOLD THAT SINCE I WAS OVER 72000 MILES THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE IT THE COST TO ME. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN AS LONG AS I LIVE I ALMOST GOT RAN OVER TRYING TO GET THE TRUCK TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. MY FUEL GAUGE WAS READING 1/2 OF TANK OF GAS. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL. I KNOW THAT IT WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED ONE UNTIL SOMEONE IS KILLED AS A RESULT OF THIS ISSUE AND THIS IS VERY SAD ESPECIALLY SINCE NISSAN HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE ISSUE SINCE DAY ONE. *TR

AFTER FILLING WITH FUEL ON 12/2/2011, THE FUEL GAUGE WAS HUNG AT ABOUT 1/4 TANK. I DROVE APPROXIMATELY 75 MILES BEFORE THE FUEL GAUGE WAS REGISTERING NEAR FULL. ON 12/8/2011, I FILLED THE TANK WITH FUEL, AND UPON STARTING THE ENGINE THE FUEL GAUGE READ "EMPTY" AND THE FUEL LIGHT WAS ON. I DROVE APPROXIMATELY 85 MILES, BUT THE FUEL GAUGE REMAINED ON EMPTY WITH THE FUEL LIGHT ON. ON 12/9/2011, I CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS CONCERNING THE RECALL ON THIS MODEL OF VEHICLE AND I WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. HOWEVER, NISSAN DID OPEN A FILE NUMBER (7327001) AND IT IS BEING FORWARDED TO A REGIONAL SPECIALIST FOR REVIEW, BUT AM TOLD IT IS UNLIKELY THAT THE FUEL SENDING UNIT WILL BE COVERED. THERE IS APPARENTLY A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT, AS NISSAN HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THIS COMPONENT TO 72,000 MILES, BUT AM TOLD THAT UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE EXCEEDED THE WARRANTY PERIOD. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE MY VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS, AT MY EXPENSE, AND NO CERTAINTY IF NISSAN WILL STAND GOOD FOR THE DEFECTIVE PART. SO THE DEALER CAN CHARGE ME APPROXIMATELY $120.00 TO ME WHAT I ALREADY KNOW? I WOULD CONSIDER THIS A HIGHWAY SAFETY ISSUE; NOT KNOWING IF YOU ARE GETTING AN ACCURATE FUEL QUANTITY READING, AND THE POSSIBILITY OF BEING STRANDED. *TR

2007 NISSAN FRONTIER AT 54K MILE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH THE ERROR CODE P0463 (FUEL SENDING UNITS FAILURE). FOUND OUT THAT THIS PROBLEM IS ALSO HAPPENED TO THE 06 AND 08 NISSAN FRONTIER THAT WAS ON THE SAFETY RECALLED LIST. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT LIGHT UP ON (P0463) AND GAS GAUGE INDICATOR WILL DROP TO EMPTY FUEL EVEN STILL AT 1/4 FULL, DUE TO THE DEFECTIVE SENDING UNITS NISSAN MANUFACTURED. I AM HOPING THAT NHTSA WILL INCLUDES THE 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER AS A SAFETY RECALL FIX LIST. THANK YOU. *KB

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT SPEED, 11:30 PM TRUCK STALLED OUT, ATTEMPTED NEUTRAL RESTART WHILE MANEUVERING TO THE RIGHT WAS A VERY HAZARDOUS SITUATION. TRUCK FUEL GAUGE WAS READING 1/4 TANK. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS NOW ON SO I DID NOT CONSIDER IT HAD RUN OUT OF FUEL. I HAD IT TOWED TO MECHANIC, CODE READ P0463 WHICH IS THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR ON THE FUEL PUMP LOCATED IN THE FUEL TANK. MECHANIC WANTS $700 TO REPAIR, THE 2006 AND 2008 VERSIONS OF THE VEHICLE HAVE BEEN RECALLED, BUT NOT THE 2007, SEEMS THAT NISSAN HAS USED THESE DEFECTIVE PARTS IN ALL 3 AND PROBABLY MORE MODEL YEARS. I WAS PLACED IN A SITUATION THAT WAS EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS TO ME, MY PASSENGERS, AND THOSE MOTORISTS ON THE ROAD AROUND ME. SINCE THIS EVENT I HAVE READ WEBSITE AFTER WEBSITE DESCRIBING THIS PRODUCT DEFECT, IT IS THE SAME IN EVERY CASE IT IS CLEAR THAT NISSAN HAS PLACED INFERIOR PARTS IN THIS TRUCK AND THEY ARE FAILING PUTTING THEIR CUSTOMERS AND THOSE AROUND US IN HARMS WAY. DO WE NEED TO WAIT FOR FATALITIES TO RECOGNIZE THIS IS A MANUFACTURES DEFECT. NISSAN NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE 2007 AND ANY OTHER MODEL YEARS THAT HAVE THIS PART IN THEM. *TR

FUEL GAUGE FAILED. SLIGHT SMELL OF FUEL IN CABIN. DEALER STATED THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE THE FUEL SENDING UNIT UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. DEALER STATED THAT WHILE TROUBLESHOOTING THE FUEL SENDING UNIT THEY DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL LINES LEADING TO THE FUEL TANK. TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THERE APPEARED TO BE DAMAGE TO THE FUEL LINES CAUSED BY AN UNKNOWN ANIMAL CHEWING THROUGH THE FUEL LINE, REQUIRING THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE FUEL TANK. THIS SOUNDED VERY IMPROBABLE AND I BELIEVE IT HAS TO BE A RESULT OF THE POOR QUALITY OF THE PLASTIC FUEL TANKS USED IN THIS VEHICLE. *TR

I PULLED INTO THE GAS STATION AND FILLED UP LIKE I NORMALLY DO. WHEN I STARTED MY ENGINE, MY GAS GAUGE DID NOT CLIMB PAST THE 1/4 MARK. I TURNED MY TRUCK ON AND OFF 2 MORE TIMES TO SEE IF THIS MIGHT FIX THE PROBLEM, IT DID NOT. AS I DROVE HOME, THE GAUGE CLIMBED EVER SO SLOWLY BEFORE STOPPING AT 1/2 TANK. THIS IS WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I GOT HOME AND GOOGLED THE PROBLEM AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM. WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IS WHY THE 06 AND 08 MODELS ARE RECALLED BUT NOT THE 07. I REFUSE TO TAKE IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I HAVE ALWAYS HAD LESS THEN STELLAR SERVICE AND JUST REFUSE TO DEAL WITH THEM AND BE FORCED TO OVERPAY.

THE FUEL SENDING UNIT ON MY 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER WENT BAD AT 74,000 MILES. NISSAN HAS DECLINED TO REPAIR IT AS IT IS OUT OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD.

I TURNED ON THE CAR, AT WHICH POINT THE NEEDLE DID NOT REGISTER THE FULL TANK. AFTER DRIVING A COUPLE MILES, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I WENT DIRECTLY TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A FUEL SENDING UNIT/SENSOR AND THAT IT WAS NO LONGER COVERED AFTER 30K MILES. AFTER RETURNING HOME AND DOING RESEARCH, I WENT ONLINE TO X.NISSANHELP.COM AFTER PERFORMING A SEARCH, I CAME ACROSS MANY OTHERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. APPARENTLY IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. A SIMILAR PROBLEM WAS FOUND ON THE 2000-2004 XTERRA MODELS AND A RECALL WAS PERFORMED WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD STOP AFTER NOT GETTING ANY FUEL, POSING A GREAT DANGER. IT SEEMS THAT SOMETHING IN THE UNIT IS FAULTY AND WILL CORRODE OVER TIME. THERE IS A GENERAL CONSENSUS THAT EVERYONE WHO IS HAVING THE PROBLEM IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE FOR OVER 2 YRS AND WITH AROUND 39K-49K. IF THIS PROBLEM EXISTED IN PREVIOUS MODELS, AND IT WAS RECALLED, THE 2005-2007 XTERRAS, FRONTIERS, AND PATHFINDERS SHOULD GET THIS FIXED AT NO CHARGE TO THE CUSTOMER!! WHY WAIT FOR ACCIDENTS AND POSSIBLE DEATHS, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE PROBLEM LIES IN AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE VEHICLE. COST OF REPAIR RANGES FROM $300-600." *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WITH ERROR CODE P0463. THIS IS DUE TO A FAULTY FUEL LEVEL SENSOR. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH NISSAN AND THE PREVIOUS MODELS WITH THE SAME ISSUE WERE RECALLED.

MY GAS GAUGE TAKES A LONG TIME TO GET BACK UP TO FULL AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON. I MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE GAS CAP IS ON TIGHT AFTER EACH FILL UP. I WAS TOLD THAT THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR MAY BE BAD. I HAVE NOT HAD THE PROBLEM FIXED YET SO THE PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE AFTER I HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED. *TR

I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY SAID THAT MY VIN NUMBER DOESN'T FALL IN THE RECALL LIST. I AM ON FORUMS AND EVERYONE IS HAVING ISSUES WITH THIS BUT THEY ARE ONLY PICKING A FEW TO FIX. THIS IS WRONG. ANYWAYS NOW WHEN I FILL IT UP IT GOES TO EMPTY AND THE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT LIGHTS. THEN AFTER 30 OR SO MILES IT EVER SO SLOWLY STARTS TO CLIMB UNTIL IT IS FULL.

NISSAN OFFERED ME $250.00 TOWARDS THE REPAIRS AT THEIR DEALERSHIP. I AM NOT SURE WHY THE 2007 MODEL'S ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALLS.

I OWN A 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER SE 4X4 CREW CAB PICKUP. I PURCHASED THE AFOREMENTIONED VEHICLE NEW IN 2007. RECENTLY THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. SHORTLY AFTER THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON I BEGAN TO NOTICE MY FUEL GAUGE NEEDLE DROPPING TO EMPTY OR NEAR EMPTY WHEN I KNEW I HAD AT LEAST 1/4 TANK OF GASOLINE. IF I SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND STARTED IT BACK UP THE FUEL GAUGE NEEDLE WOULD INDICATE 1/4 TANK, AND THEN SHORTLY AFTERWARD DROP TO EMPTY OR NEAR EMPTY. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE VERY COMMON AND SHOULD WARRANT A RECALL. MY VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 45,800 MILES ON IT. IN MY OPINION RUNNING OUT OF FUEL OR BEING DISTRACTED BY A MALFUNCTIONING FUEL GAUGE COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. I REQUEST THAT THIS PROBLEM IS INVESTIGATED AND A RECALL IS INITIATED IMMEDIATELY.

IT HAS BEEN ERRATIC SINCE THAT EVENT AND HAS NOT PROPERLY INDICATED HOW MUCH FUEL REMAINS IN THE TANK. ON 7-16-10, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FROM WHICH IT WAS PURCHASED. THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND ADVISED THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW FUEL SENDING UNIT. THEY ALSO ADVISED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THAT PART, ALTHOUGH THERE WAS A RECALL ON THAT PART FOR THE NISSAN TITAN. THROUGH RESEARCH, I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT NISSAN HAS HAD PREVIOUS RECALLS ON FUEL SENDING UNITS ON OTHER MODEL YEARS AND VEHICLES, AND MANY OWNERS HAVE POSTED THE SIMILAR PROBLEM ONLINE, SPECIFICALLY REGARDING THE FUEL SENDING UNIT ON THE 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER. NISSAN IS AT THIS TIME UNWILLING TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM AT THEIR COST, WHICH I FIND FRUSTRATING AS IT IS AN OBVIOUS PART PROBLEM. MY CONCERN IS THAT AN INACCURATE FUEL LEVEL READING CAUSED BY THIS FAULTY UNIT COULD LEAD TO A STALLED VEHICLE IN TRAFFIC, POSING A CONSIDERABLE SAFETY RISK. *TR

I AM ASTOUNDED THAT SUCH A RECALL WOULD EXCLUDE VEHICLES WITH SAME PART AND SAME HISTORY OF PART FAILURE. THIS IS ESPECIALLY SURPRISING SINCE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR OTHER MODELS OF MY YEAR, JUST NOT MY MODEL. IF THE PART IS FAILING AND IS A ENOUGH OF A SAFETY ISSUE TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR OTHER MODELS IN THE SAME YEAR AND FOR THE SAME MODEL IN OTHER YEARS, WHY WOULD IT NOT BE CONSIDERED ENOUGH OF A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MY MODEL YEAR?

I OWN A 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER XE PICK UP. AFTER FILLING UP WITH GAS ON 2/28/2010 I NOTICED THAT MY FUEL GAUGE DID NOT MOVE TO THE FULL MARK. THE FUEL GAUGE EVENTUALLY (AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES OF DRIVING) BEGAN TO MOVE TO ABOUT THE 3/4 FULL MARK. MY WIFE TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER ON 3/1/2010 FOR A STRANGE ENGINE NOISE AND TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL GAUGE. THE SERVICE MANAGER FROM THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL GAUGE SENDING UNIT. I AUTHORIZED THE DEALER TO COMPLETE THE REPAIR,(3/3/2010) THE COST WAS $474.38. THE NEXT DAY A FRIEND CALLED TO TELL ME THAT THEY HEARD OF A NHTSA RECALL ON CERTAIN NISSAN MODELS REGARDING THE FUEL GAUGE MALFUNCTIONING. I CONSULTED YOUR WEBSITE AND IN READING THE SUMMARY OF THE RECALL DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS VERY SIMILAR IF NOT EXACT TO THE SYMPTOMS MY VEHICLE HAD DEMONSTRATED. I CALLED NISSAN AND FURNISHED MY VIN FULLY EXPECTING MY VEHICLE TO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. UNFORTUNATELY NISSAN INSISTED MY VIN WAS NOT COVERED IN THE RECALL. I APPEALED WITHIN THEIR COMPANY ASKING THEM TO CONSIDER COVERING THE COST OF THE REPAIR SINCE THE DEFECT SO CLOSELY MIRRORED THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH MY VIN WAS TECHNICALLY EXCLUDED FROM THE RECALL. THEY REFUSED TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE TOWARDS MY REPAIR COSTS. I REALIZE THAT I AM ASKING A LARGE COMPANY TO SHOW INTEGRITY SINCE THEY ARE SECURE THAT MY VIN IS EXCLUDED, BUT I THOUGHT THEY WOULD HONOR MY REQUEST GIVEN THE NATURE OF MY REPAIR AND THE RECALL. IS THERE ANYTHING NHTSA CAN DO TO ASSIST ME IN THIS? IT SEEMS A SHAME THAT EVEN THOUGH MY VEHICLE DEMONSTRATED NEARLY EXACT SYMPTOMS OF THE RECALL, THEY CAN DENY RESPONSIBILITY BECAUSE FOR WHATEVER REASON MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AT THIS TIME. *TR

DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED IT AS A TOASTED FSU, BUT BECAUSE THE TRUCK WAS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY, I HAD TO SHELL OUT $407.00 BUCKS TO GET IT REPLACED. THIS ISSUE IS MORE THAN AN INCONVENIENCE AND AN UNNECESSARY EXPENSE...IT'S DOWNRIGHT DANGEROUS FOR SOMEONE CAUGHT IN A SITUATION WHEN THE FSU FAILS, AND THEY CAN'T MANEUVER OUT OF A SITUATION BECAUSE OF THE LOSS OF POWER.

I HAVE A NISSAN FRONTIER 2007, ITS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD AND ITS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT WHICH COSTS 300-600 DOLLARS TO REPLACE, BUT MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, I WENT TO: HTTP://X.NISSANHELP.COM/FORUMS/XTERRA/4151-FUEL-GAUGE-PROBLEM-SERVICE-ENGINE-SOON-LIGHT.HTML AND IT SHOWS THAT IM NOT THE ONLY ONE. NISSAN SHOULD HAVE A RECALL BECAUSE ALOT OF OTHER CARS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. IT COULD ALSO PROVE TO BE DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT WORK AND THE VEHICLE MIGHT RUN OUT OF GAS WHILE MOVING AT HIGH SPEEDS. *TR

AT ABOUT 41,000 MILES, JUST OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY, FUEL GAUGE STOPPED WORKING AFTER I FILLED GAS TANK UP. IT WILL OCCASIONALLY WORK NOW BUT NOT ALL THE WAY. NOW I CAN NOT TRUST THE FUEL GAUGE. NISSAN SHOP EMPLOYEES SAID THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. IT IS A FUEL GAUGE SENSOR AND WILL COST OVER 500 DOLLARS TO REPAIR. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. IF I WAS TRAVELING WITH MY FAMILY AND RAN OUT GAS AT NIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY, ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN BEFORE I GOT HELP. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER WITH 41000 MILES ON IT. AT 39000 MILES THE FUEL GAUGE STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN I FILL UP WITH GASOLINE, THE FUEL GAUGE REMAINS AT EMPTY WITH THE EMPTY GAS TANK LIGHT ON. OCCASIONALLY THE GAUGE KICKS UP BUT DIES DOWN AGAIN. ON 9/9/09 I TOOK THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS FUEL GAUGE SENSOR NEEDS REPLACEMENT. THEY WANTED OVER $500 FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS AND SO I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY PROMISED TO LOOK INTO A "GOODWILL" REPAIR OF THE PROBLEM. HOWEVER THEY CALLED ME TODAY TO SAY THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR THE PART TO BE REPLACED. THIS PROBLEM, I NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH FUEL I HAVE IN THE TANK AND I JUST KEEP FILLING IT UP EVERY COUPLE OF DAYS. I AM AFRAID THE GASOLINE WILL RAN OUT WHEN ON THE ROADSIDE AND PUT ME AND MY FAMILY IN DANGER OF AN ACCIDENT OR BURGLARY OR WORSE. *TR

MODEL YEAR 2007 MAKE NISSAN MODEL FRONTIER COMPONENT* FUEL GAGE SYSTEM THE FUEL SENDING UNIT HAS QUIT WORKING WHICH CAUSES THE FUEL GAUGE TO GIVE FALSE READINGS. NOW THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THE UNIT IS NOT WORKING AGAIN. AFTER TALKING WITH SEVERAL OWNERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE I FOUND OUT WE ARE ALL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, GOING THROUGH MULTIPLE UNITS. NISSAN DOES SEEM TO BE FIXING THE PROBLEM BUT, JUST COVERING IT UP. AFTER TALKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP THEY DO NOT WANT TO TRY TO COVER IT, THEY WANT ME TO PAY $400 FOR PARTS AND LABOR WHICH I AM NOT GOING TO DO. BESIDES THE FACT THAT $100 FOR PARTS AND $300 FOR LABOR IS OUTRAGEOUS I AM NOT GOING TO REPLACE THIS PART JUST HAVE IT FAIL AGAIN. THIS PART SHOULD BE ON A RECALL BECAUSE IT IS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE AND NOT A PART THAT SHOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED 2, 3, OR 4 TIMES OR EVEN AT 10000 MILES. NOW MY PROBLEM IS THE TRUCK SEEMS TO BE USING MORE GAS BECAUSE OF THIS. *TR

2007 NISSAN FRONTIER WITH 45,000 MILES DEVELOPED "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT WHEN FILLED UP WITH GASOLINE. CODE SHOWN WHEN READ WAS "FUEL SENDING UNIT HIGH OUTPUT". AFTER RESEARCH WITH SEVERAL NISSAN DEALERS, AN APPROXIMATE REPAIR COST OF $600 WAS GIVEN, INCLUDING A $100 DIAGNOSTIC FEE FOR READING THE CODES. I HAVE BEEN RUNNING VEHICLE WITHOUT A PROPERLY OPERATING FUEL GAUGE FOR APPROXIMATELY 5,000 MILES SINCE, DUE TO HIGH COST OF REPAIR NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. THIS IS A RISK SINCE THE FUEL GAUGE DROPS TO EMPTY ONCE TANK IS BELOW HALF FULL. THIS CAN RESULT IN LOSS OF POWER COMPONENTS UPON VEHICLE CEASING TO OPERATE ONCE OUT OF FUEL. THIS IS A RECURRING DEFECT IN SIMILAR AND PAST MODEL YEARS THAT THE MANUFACTURER IS CHOOSING TO IGNORE ONCE OUT OF WARRANTY. *TR

FUEL SENSOR PROBLEM 2007 FRONTIER -47,000 MILE. AFTER FILLING THE TANK, THE FUEL GAUGE DROPS TO EMPTY, THE LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT COMES ON, AND SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT COMES ON. THIS IS A COMMON RECURRING PROBLEM WITH NISSAN MODELS AND BECAUSE IT IS NOT A TRUE SAFETY ISSUE, NISSAN DOES NOT FEEL THE NECESSITY TO ISSUE A RECALL. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 FRONTIER KING CAB NISMO WITH 56,000 MILES ON IT. PUT FUEL IN IT TODAY AND THE FUEL GAUGE WILL NOT RISE ABOVE HALF FULL. THEN THE CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON. A FEW MILES LATER THE GAUGE PLUNGED TO EMPTY WITH THE LOW FUEL LIGHT ON. ON MY RETURN TRIP THE GAUGE MOVED UP TO HALF WITH THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT ON. IT APPEARS FROM MY RESEARCH THAT THE FUEL SENDING UNIT IS BAD AND THAT NUMEROUS OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS SAME EXPENSIVE ISSUE. APPARENTLY THIS CAN CAUSE THE FUEL TO STOP BEING SENT AND POTENTIALLY LEAD TO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. MY CALL TO THE DEAL WILL BE TOMORROW AM. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE AS XTERRA'S WERE RECALLED FOR THIS SAME ISSUE IN PRIOR MODEL YEARS. JUST TWO WEEKS AGO I HAD A ABS SENSOR REPLACED AT $400. THE REAR END WAS DROPPED AT TWO WEEKS OLD TO FIX ANOTHER SENSOR AND ON AND ON. THIS TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN RELIABLE AND I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ANY NISSAN PRODUCT AT THIS POINT! IT DOES NOT GO MORE THAN 2 MONTHS WITHOUT SOMETHING GOING WRONG WITH IT. HELP! *TR

I JUST BOUGHT MY 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER LE WITH 60,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING IT HOME I NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WAS NOT GOING ALL THE WAY UP EVEN THOUGH I HAD JUST FILLED THE TANK COMPLETELY. THEN THE GAUGE JUST DROPPED ALL THE WAY TO EMPTY AND THE EMPTY LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT AND THE DTE (DISTANCE TO EMPTY) LIGHT STARTED TO FLASH. I HAVE NOT YET HAD THIS PROBLEM REPAIRED BUT WILL WITHIN THE NEXT WEEK. *TR

FUEL SENSOR OR SENDING UNIT IS BAD ON A 07' FRONTIER. FUEL GAUGE DROPS TO EMPTY AT 1/4 TANK, AND ALSO DOES THE SAME AFTER FILL UP. TAKES A WHILE TO COME BACK UP TO FULL READING. NISSAN WANTS ME TO PAY 600.00 FOR A REPAIR WHEN THIS IS APPARENTLY A ISSUE ON ALL OF THEIR VEHICLES. THEY NEED TO ISSUER A RECALL. *TR

I FILLED UP MY TANK AND AFTER SETTING FOR A MINUTE IDLING I NOTICED MY GAS GAUGE WAS BELOW EMPTY AND THE DISTANCE TO EMPTY LIGHT WAS ON AND READING -----. MY ORIGINAL THOUGHT WAS THAT I DIDN'T TIGHTEN MY GAS CAP ENOUGH, BUT I ALWAYS DO. A MINUTE LATER THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT COMES ON. I HAVE A 2007 FRONTIER CREW CAB NISMO WITH 67,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING HOME THE GAS GAUGE SLOWLY WORKED ITS WAY UP TO JUST BELOW FULL AND THE SES LIGHT IS STILL ON. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN VERY MUCH MORE TO SEE IF THE GAS GAUGE WORKS PROPERLY. I HAVE BEEN CHECKING THROUGH MY EXTENDED WARRANTY, WHICH EXTENDS OUT TO 72 MONTHS OR 100,000 AND IT DOES SHOW THAT THE GAS SENDING UNIT IS COVERED. AFTER VISITING THE FOLLOWING FORUM: HTTP://X.NISSANHELP.COM/FORUMS/XTERRA/4151-FUEL-GAUGE-PROBLEM-SERVICE-ENGINE-SOON-LIGHT.HTML, I NOTICED MANY OTHER PEOPLE WITH 2005-2007 NISSAN FRONTIER, XTERRA AND PATHFINDERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND THE DEALERS ARE CHARGING 400-700 DOLLARS TO FIX. MANY OF THESE PEOPLE ARE OUT OF THEIR WARRANTY PERIOD AND HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. MY WARRANTY REQUIRES ME TO PAY A 100 DOLLAR DEDUCTIBLE. SOUNDS LIKE THIS FUEL SENDING UNIT DESERVES A RECALL. *TR

SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON AT ~55000 MILES. WHEN I FILLED UP MY GAS TANK THE LEVEL DID NOT REGISTER CORRECTLY AND THE SES LIGHT CAME ON. WILL GO OFF BETWEEN 3/4 AND 1/4 TANK, BUT COMES BACK ON EACH FILL UP. FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE NISSAN FRONTIER. MINE IS A 2007 MODEL. *TR

2007 FRONTIER NISSAN CHEAP GAS TANK... WHAT GOOD DOES A LOCK GAS CAP DO? THE GAS TANK IS MADE OUT OF CHEAP PLASTIC WHICH IS VERY EASY FOR A LOW LIFE PERSON TO PUNCTURE WITH ONLY THE POINT OF A POCKET KNIFE!!! (THE REPAIR PERSON,HIMSELF SHOWED ME WITH HIS OWN POCKET KNIFE HOW IT TOOK NO STRAIN TO STEAL MY GAS.) ( I FOUND OUT THE HARD WAY!!! A LOW LIFE PERSON HAD NO DIFFICULTY AT ALL STEALING MY GAS WITH JUST THE POINT OF A POCKET KNIFE. AND WITH THE HIGH PRICES OF GAS A LOT MORE OF US WILL ALSO FIND OUT THE HARD WAY!!! ) TO REPLACE MY GAS TANK IT COST ME ABOUT $1,000.00.!!! BUT EVEN WORSE!!! MY NEW $1,000.00 GAS TANK IS JUST LIKE THE OLD GAS TANK THAT WAS PUNCTURED WITH ONLY THE POINT OF A POCKET KNIFE,BY A LOW LIFE PERSON WHO ALREADY KNOWS WHERE MY NISSAN IS PARKED!!!AND HOW EASY IT WAS TO STEAL MY GAS BEFORE!!! HEY!!! I CAN'T AFFORD A $1,000.00 EVERY TIME SOME LOW LIFE PERSON STEALS MY GAS!!! CAN YOU??? I DON'T THINK NISSAN CAN EVEN AFFORD THAT!!! EITHER!!! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN FRONTIER. THE CONTACT THOUGHT HE DROVE OVER AN OBJECT AT 60 MPH. HE IMMEDIATELY SMELLED GAS AND PULLED OVER THE VEHICLE. HE NOTICED GAS SPILLING FROM THE MIDDLE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT JUMPED BACK INTO THE VEHICLE AND DROVE OFF BECAUSE HE WAS AT A GAS STATION. ONCE FAR ENOUGH FROM THE STATION, HE TURNED OFF THE ENGINE, WAITED FOR THE GAS TO STOP LEAKING, RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, AND DROVE HOME. THE DEALER DID NOT MAKE ANY REPAIRS, BUT STATED THAT THE GAS TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY AN OBJECT THAT STRUCK THE ALUMINUM COVER AND CRACKED THE PLASTIC GAS TANK. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 2,000. UPDATED 02/19/08. *LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE GAS TANK WAS MADE OF POOR QUALITY PLASTIC MATERIAL, WITH A VERY THIN ALUMINUM PLATE COVERING. THE OBJECT THAT HIT THE GAS TANK WAS SMALL BECAUSE IT MARKED A FOUR-INCH DENT ON THE FRONT SIDE OF THE GAS TANK AND THE SMALL PIECE OF SQUARE THAT WAS IN FRONT OF IT. UPDATED

WHEN PARKING '07 NISSAN FRONTIER INTO A PARKING STALL, I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO COME TO A FULL STOP. THE ENGINE THEN STARTED TO RACE AND MOVE THE TRUCK FORWARD. I ALREADY HAD THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESPONSE, THE TRUCK CLIMB THE PARKING CURB AND HIT A SITGN AND THEN A PARKED CAR. COULDN'T BELIEVE THAT NOTHING COULD STOP THE TRUCK TILL IT HIT THE CAR AND THEN THE ENGINE STOPPED RACING. I HAD THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER TAKE ALOOK AT THE TRUCK AND MADE HIM PRESS THE BRAKES WHERE IT WENT DOWN TO THE FLOOR. HE THEN HAD A TOWING COMPANY TOW THE TRUCK DOWN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO PREVENT ANOTHER ACCIDENT. DEALER HAD THE TRUCK FOR A WEEK BUT COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE TRUCK. THEY NOTED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS SOFT BUT IT SHOULD BE OKAY. THEY COULD NOT GET THE MOTOR TO RACE SO THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING. THEY DID ALL THE TEST THAT THEY COULD BUT INFORMED ME THAT THEY CAN'T FIX SOMETHING THEY CANNOT FIND.
