2010 Nissan Xterra Fuel system Problems

“My 2005 Xterra is having same problem as the recalled 2006 Xterra with the fuel gauge and running out of gas...but the dealership said that I would have to pay to get mine fixed costing nearly $500.00....the 2005 xterras should be included in this recall as many are having the same problems with the fuel gauge...”

“My ecu on my Nissan Xterra was supposedly shorted due to a loose or damaged cable. With my initial inspection of the vehicle, the cable was not loose, yet I still had problems. The issue happened when I had parked my vehicle to run an errand. When I returned, I started up my vehicle and attempted to drive. There was no power and the engine would not accelerate over 5 MPH. Not wanting the vehicle to breakdown on a busy road, I backed up and parked the vehicle. I attempted to restart the vehicle, but this time the starter would crank, but would not turn over. …”

“I am writing to report repeated problems with my vehicle, an Xterra 2010. I am very concerned about risk of crash and damage to the transmission. The problems include - slow acceleration on surface streets after light changes ? This happens frequently. - slow acceleration when entering the expressway, car shifts gears slowly ? This happens frequently, - car fills with kerosene or exhaust smell for a short time, even when there are no other cars around ? This occurs occasionally, - car revved up followed by a sweet smell (like coolant/antifreeze) when standing at stop lights ? …”

“I have a 2010 Nissan Xterra I bought in aug 2010. I am constantly having to bring it into the dealership for repairs with same 3-4 issues. It now has apprx 8000 miles and needs a new set of tires which Nissan is refusing to change. The gas gauge is constantly not working, does not read properly, I finally had to prove it to them this past week after complaining numerous time and having them, replace the gas sensor one . The engine hesitates at apprx 40 miles an hour, one of these days I am afraid I will be hit from behind when I step on the gas and it does not go. …”

“My service engine light came on and had the system diagnosed. It was a bad fuel sending unit. I only had 37200 miles on the vehicle. I contacted Nissan and surrounding dealerships and got the it's out of warranty speech. The shop that performed the work mentioned they have had a lot of nissans with the same problem. I still have the receipt and if there is a recall issued, I would like to get my money back.”
