I took my Xterra in for a fuel gauge problem and was told it was computer code po463 which is a fuel sensor problem. I was then told that the repair would cost around 600. 00 this is outrageous! I have been on the internet where numerous people have complained about the same problem. Please force Nissan to make this a factory recall. 600. 00 is the cost of a mortgage payment and the truck will not pass inspection without this fix!!!!.
Defective fuel gauge sensor. Was not aware that there was a recall period to have sensor checked out and fixed for free. Grace period has expired and dealership which is lokey Nissan now wants to charge us nearly $700 dollars to fix. If we had known about this defect earlier via any type of communication, we would have had vehicle checked out. Since we purchased this vehicle from said dealership, we would have expected some sort of notice concerning this flaw. We have had our share of problems that should not have occurred with such low mileage, but this is over the top.

Fuel gauge problem with 2006 Xterra.
2006 Nissan Xterra fuel gauge / ses light are inop.
I have a 2006 Nissan Xterra off-road that was bought new in may of 2006 and now has approximately 12,000 miles. Within the last few weeks a few times the gas gauge has become erratic. After a fill up the gauge will drop to around 3/4 full after only 25+ miles being driven and other times reads correctly as the gas is used. I have checked gas used against odometer mileage and it seems correct -- so no leaks! dealers have been called but no ideas, and it has not been taken in for this complaint yet. I plan on checking the obdii port for error codes prior to taking to dealer.
