When it rains or snows, the fuel fill overflow valve stops working correctly and fuel spits right back out when trying to fill with fuel and the check engine light comes on. The light comes on when driving in rain or snow.

The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Frontier. The contact stated while driving at approximately 60 mph the vehicle unexpectedly started to leak fuel. There was no warning lights to indicate the failure. The contact safely pulled the vehicle over and the fire department was called. The vehicle was towed to a local mechanic where the repairs were made. The prognosis was that the vehicle had a punctured fuel tank. The dealer was contacted but offered no resolution. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure was 40,000.

I try and fill up fuel and the pump constantly shuts off. I have to pump the fuel super slow in order for it to fill up. I have tried different gas stations, same issue. I took it into the dealer and they did some repairs under the enhancement warranty they implemented, but the issue still exists. They want to charge me $1900 to replace the fuel tank and other fuel components even though the exact same issue is happening as described in the warranty enhancement for the issue. Code P0448. The issue is beyond just the evap canister if the issue still exists after they replaced it, so it seems as though they are only trying to repair part of the issues even though it is beyond the basic fix, if it is still occurring. If you try and fill up normally, the nozzle shuts off or the fuel spills out because it is detecting it is full even though it's not.

I purchased a 2017 Nissan Frontier in August of 2017. Recently when I went to fill up with gas, gas started coming back up. I researched this online and it is a common issue with Frontier. The evap fuel canister and solenoid valve.
