- Acworth, GA, USA

There was a recall issued March 3, 2010 by Nissan for my 2006 Nissan Pathfinder to replace a defective fuel level sending unit. When I attempted to get my fuel level sensor replaced at their woodbury NJ Nissan dealership in April 2010, because of a failure of the sensor, I was advised that my vehicle was not covered under the recall and that I would have to pay for the repair. I desperately needed the repair because I no longer had any dash speed or fuel level readout and I could not financially afford the dealership estimated charge for the fuel level sensor replacement. I was forced to seek a less expensive repair shop to complete the repair so I could continue to safely drive my vehicle. The sensor unit was replaced April 30, 2010 by a local repair shop at a cost to me of $291. Unfortunately, the Nissan dealership refused to do the free fuel level sending unit replacement that I was entitled to under their March, 2010 recall of over 80,000 2006 Pathfinder's. there was no logical explanation given by the woodbury dealership for the refusal to do the free replacement of the defective part. I sent an appeal letter to Nissan corporate May 2010 requesting reimbursement and they ignored the recall issue and sent me a form letter saying my vehicle was out of warranty and declining my request for assistance.
