| My vehicle has developed a vibration while i am driving which has been very uncomfortable, however, nothing major in the performance of the vehicle, however, now my vehicle has decided to randomly turn off while driving. this is extremely dangerous and could cause an accident. i took it to the nissan dealership and they said that they found trans fluid mixing with coolant due to leaking trans cooler in radiator and the total cost would come out to $5,000. i am unable to afford this bill so i have not been able to repair my vehicle. | |||

| After filling truck up with gas the fuel gauge did not register full. after driving a few miles down the road the check engine light came on and the gas gauge went to empty. mechanic checked the the check engine code, which was a fuel sensor error. the mechanic reset the check engine. after several miles the gas gauge started working again. it has been this way for six months now. every time i fill my truck up with gas it does not register full. a few miles later the gas gauge goes to empty and the check engine light comes on. after several miles (varies from approximately 20 to 100 miles) the fuel gauge starts working again. sometimes it not a matter of miles but time. fill my truck up, gas gauge goes to empty, park my truck at the airport for a few days and when i get back the fuel gauge works. | |||

| Service engine soon light came on and the fuel gauge started going wacky and ultimately showed empty eventhough i had 1/2 tank of gas. light would not go out, so i researched the issue on the internet and found that it is a known issue on my nissan truck. there is even a service bulletin out on it. so, off i went and took it into my nissan service department and they said the code p0463 was a fuel sensing unit that they would repair for over $350. i see this as a safety issue, since my wife drives the truck and if she is unable to correctly determine how much fuel is in the truck she runs the risk of running out of gas in traffic or maybe even in an unsafe neighborhood. *tr | |||
