“While driving home from wa to ca I noticed while driving up the great vine my 2009 Nissan Rogue started to decelerate from 70 MPH to 45-55 MPH, I had my foot pressed pedal to the metal with no acceleration.

“I was leaving a store and gas light came on. I knew that I had fill up before entering the I-95 interstate and I was a bit perplexed.

On 9/19/13, I stopped at a gas station and the check engine light came on. On 9/20/13 I took the vehicle to the dealership for a diagnostic check and was told that I needed a fuel sending unit which would cost me $1,087 which includes parts and labor. …”
