NHTSA Complaint #10807587 — 2008 NISSAN PATHFINDER

MY 2008 PATHFINDER'S CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE MY FUEL GAUGE IS SHOWING EMPTY WHEN I WOULD FILL UP CONSTANTLY, THE MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE WAS APPROX. 105,000. I WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS MY FUEL LEVEL SENSOR THAT NEEDED REPLACED, NISSAN NORTH AMERICA INFORMS ME MY VIN ISN'T COVERED IN THE NHTSA REFERENCE #10V075000 RECALL OF THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR THAT BEGAN MARCH 2010, I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE USED AFTER THE RECALL WAS INITIATED. DUE TO THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR NEEDING REPLACED ($600), I WAS NOT ABLE TO PASS MY EMISSIONS TEST IN CO ($25), AND AM NOT ABLE TO REGISTER MY VEHICLE ($200). SO IF I HAVE TO PAY FOR MY OWN REPAIRS I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE A PART THAT NISSAN IS AWARE HAS AN ISSUE, GET A SECOND EMISSIONS TEST AND PAY ANY LATE FEES ON TOP OF MY ANNUAL REGISTRATION FEE. I BELIEVE THAT IF NISSAN IS AWARE OR THIS ISSUE THEY SHOULD REPAIR MY VEHICLE AT NO COST TO ME AND/OR IF A RECALL WAS INITIATED THEN THERE NEEDS TO BE MORE EXPLANATION AS TO WHY MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED.
