Consumer Description

MY FUEL GAUGE SHOWS THE WRONG FUEL LEVEL AND THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON INDICATING A FAULT WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. I THOUGHT MY VEHICLE WOULD BE PART OF THE RECALL ID # 10V075000 - FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:AUXILIARY TANK. I CALLED NISSAN AND GAVE THEM MY VIN. THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I HAVE THE EXACT PROBLEM ADDRESSED IN THE RECALL. SAME MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR. *TR
