: the contact stated on four separate occasions the check engine light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealership after each of the first three incidents. On every visit to the dealership the gas cap was replaced. When the light illuminated the fourth time two months ago the dealer was contacted and suggested diagnostic testing. There were no warning signals indicating a problem except for the check engine light.

My 2001 Nissan Frontier has spilled fuel every time I fill up the tank since I purchased the truck. I am the original owner of the truck. I wondered why this had not been corrected by a recall so I searched the internet and found this web site. I found NHTSA campaign id number 02V300000 and to my surprise found that this problem had been noted and a recall had been issued. I contacted the dealer but he told me that based on the vehicle id number my truck did not qualify for this recall. I then called Nissan directly to be told the same thing. The problem described in the recall is identical to what I am experiencing and it would appear that neither the dealer nor Nissan is willing to do anything to remedy the problem. Thanks, sean

Fuel overflows from filler neck at end of refueling procedure, when fueling with nozzle on "automatic" and at normal/full pressure. Happens about 70% of the time. Both dealer and manufacturer contacted, and are aware of similar complaints from others. Only recommendation was "refuel at lower pressure".
