2000 Nissan Frontier Fuel system Problems

“I was driving back from school on march 10th 2011. While entering a highway onramp my car engine stopped. I was traveling 40 MPH and did not get any warning about the stall, my steering did not have any power and brakes were difficult to operate. When I called Nissan (1-800-nissan1) about my incident and ask if there were any recalls made to my vehicle I was told that there was no recall. I then took my truck to a repair shop where it was diagnose with a faulty pump and burned electrical wires. This repair cost me over $900. …”

“On march 07, 2007 my 2000 Nissan Frontier began intermittently to lose engine power. No recognizable events lead up to the power failure, it came on suddenly and without any warning. The first incident occurred at a major highway intersection, and nearly caused vehicle crash. On march 08, 2007, I had my vehicle towed to my primary mechanic for inspection. On march 09, 2007, my primary ase certified mechanic diagnosed the problem as being a faulty fuel tank sending unit. …”

“I noticed a fuel odor for about 2 days and then my check engine light came on. I went to my local Nissan dealership on 9/26/2014 and was told that my fuel pump is not sealing properly on top of my fuel tank due to rust. I was informed that the tank needs to be replaced and the cost would be $954 dollars. This is the second time I have had this problem. This same problem occurred in may 2009. I had the same fuel odor issue. They dropped the tank,cleaned up the rust, resealed the fuel pump, and re-installed the tank. At the time it cost me $594 dollars. I have the receipts for both issues. …”

“Upon having Nissan dealer troubleshoot reason for service engine soon light being on at 26,800 miles on my 2000 Nissan Frontier, I was told that the emissions system evap canister had exploded and charcoal pellets contaminated the system, requiring total replacement of the charcoal canister and evap valve to the tune of $597.00. Being that item is part of emissions system and requires zero maintenance by the consumer, I was shocked to learn that the item was not covered under the emissions warranty.”

“2000 Nissan Frontier fuel sending unit set off service engine light. This was a recall which was repaired on 6 sept 2007 fuel tank and sending unit were replaced. Vehicle had 62698 miles then. Now fuel sending unit set off service engine light again at 73444 miles. Gas tank corroded around sending unit just 3 years and 11000 miles later. Fuel tank and sending unit were replaced again, at my expense. How was this a fixed recall when Nissan still has the same problem and will not pay for it?”
