2006 nissan frontier fuel system. after fueling up my pickup, the check engine light comes on and gas gauge show empty and dte computer goes out. being a component of the fuel system this can be dangerous. any malfunction in a gas tank should warrant investigation and resolution. *tr

I have a 2006 nissan frontier nismo i have had 3 fuel "sending units" replaced and have only 21000 miles on the truck. this is due to very erratic and somewhat unsafe defective equipment ie; gas gauge/sending unit. i recently had it replaced for the third time and it is now worse than before. i am very frustrated and this seems to be a universal problem with the gas gauge/sending unit. i would like to see a recall and this problem fixed once and for all. thanks *tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 nissan frontier. the contact stated that fuel gauge did not work and she would have to periodically check the odometer to determine how much fuel was in the tank. she called the dealer and was referred to the manufacturer who advised her to file a complaint with nhtsa. the failure mileage was approximately 60,000. the current mileage was approximately 70,000. updated 6/1/10 *cn the transmission was not acting properly and the air conditioner was not working. updated 06/04/10.*jb

i own a 2006 nissan frontier, it was delivered with only half the keys programmed for the vehicle, a strange rattling of plastic shrouding in the engine compartment and as i found out a fast set of tires later, the front end out of alignment [ too much toe in ]. when i read the manual i found out that my 4wd vehicle was "not intended to be used off of the road", this was not in any of the presales literature and the reason i buy 4wd is so i can use it off road. at 100 miles after warranty i had to take it in because the fuel sending unit had failed, about a $600 repair on a part that should last 200,000 miles. the mechanic told me their dealership is replacing about one of these a week on a couple of models. when i picked it up i got the trouble light on the way home, i scanned it to see what the problem was [code po448 ]. i took it back. the first canister they ordered showed up broken [ kind of fragile for something mounted on the bottom of a 4wd ]. parts replaced under the emissions warranty were 14953zp50c filter-canister, 14950-ea20a canister assy. e, and 14935-am60b valve assy.-co. the service order says " ...inspected/found no flow very rusty....". as the vehicle only has 36,000 miles on it this does not bode well for the future. *tr
