Other Fuel System Fuel Gauge problems of the 2005 Nissan Titan

The fuel gauge seems to work intermittently and after researching the problem online it appears there is a recall affecting my truck, campaign id # r1010 NHTSA 10v-074.

Fuel system, other:storage:fuel gauge system recall for 2005 Nissan Titan - Nissan clearly has a recall for the 2005 Nissan Titan fuel gauge that is not displaying correctly. Upon contacting Nissan, they have said the VIN I provided is not affected which is ridiculous as my 2005 Nissan has the same problem as the 340,000 trucks that are affected. Nissan has clearly not included all VIN's that are affected. This is a dangerous problem as there is not indication of how much fuel is in the vehicle since the gauge will not function properly. If the vehicle quits on a hwy due to running out of fuel, Nissan should be completely liable for any and all damage, injuries that this may cause on an open highway.

Fuel gauge does not work properly. Have ran out of gas twice while the fule gauge would be at half.

My 2005 Nissan Titan is exhibiting the failures as outlined in Nissan NHTSA recall campaign 06v459000 (electrical system / wiring harness) and NHTSA recall campaign 10v074000 (fuel system / fuel gauge system). After reporting my issues to my local Nissan dealer and Nissan consumer affairs, I was told my VIN was not included in either recall campaign. Nissan consumer affairs finally gave me a case number and told me to have my local Nissan dealer diagnose the truck and provide the written diagnosis and cost estimate to a Nissan consumer affairs specialist. After paying $85 for a diagnosis, the local dealer confirmed in a written diagnosis and estimate, that my truck was experiencing the same failures that the 2 recalls cite and that my truck needed the same remedies as outlined in the recalls. After providing this information to the Nissan consumer affairs specialist, Nissan declined to cover my repairs stating that my VIN was not included, I did not have a complete history of Nissan servicing my vehicle and that my vehicle was outside the limited warranty term. I knew my truck was outside the warranty term, my truck needs to be included in the recall campaign, which has nothing to do with warranty. Nissan is negligent in not including my truck in the recall. I have seen this same complaint from numerous others in my same situation, on this website and other online forums. The recall needs to be expanded as they obviously are not covering all vehicles affected by the failures cited.

The contact owns a 2005 Nissan Titan pickup. The contact stated that while driving the vehicle it started sputtering and ran out of fuel on the highway. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who stated there was a recall NHTSA campaign id number: 10v074000 (fuel system, other: storage: fuel gauge system). The contact mentioned that after having the recall repairs performed, strong fumes continued to emit in and around the vehicle. In addition, the vehicle failed to accelerate pass 40 mph. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer in three different occasions within the week to repair the fuel system. The dealer repaired the fuel level sender and the ecm relay. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 89,000.

I was driving home on a state route with a speed limit of 55 mph. The vehicle indicated there was 1/4 of a tank of fuel left and then the engine abruptly shut off while I was going 55 mph with traffic behind me and very limited run off on the side of the highway. When the vehicle shut off I lost all power steering and the vehicle became very hard to stop. Luckily I was in a truck and was able to pull of onto the grass on the side of the road, otherwise it may have caused an accident. I did a little research and found there was already an incident filed for this, but when I called somehow my vehicle wasn't covered, even though my symptoms matched the NHTSA recall 10v07400 exactly. It was a very scary experience and could have been much worse had the road been busier or I hadn't pulled off. I had to wait for gas on a very busy road with very little room between my truck and other traffic. I think if my vehicle isn't covered under the recall it should be expanded since it was the exact same scenario as other Nissan's were having, and could have been much worse.

Purchased a new 2005 Nissan Titan 4-door pick-up truck in February 2005. Both the manufacturer as well as the dealership knew of an existing safety problem regarding the braking system of both 2004 and 2005 Titan pick-up truck models, but failed to alert myself of the problem. I had to threaten to sue the dealership to provide and install the manufacturer's suggested replacement parts to resolve the issue. The replacement parts were installed less than 60 days ago, and the problem has resurfaced. When I spoke with 2 separate Nissan corporation representatives, they provided me false information, and they told me they considered the matter closed and if I was not satisfied then I should contact a lemon-law attorney! I demand the manufacturer and the dealer to refund my money entirely! they fraudently sold me a vehicle that is not safe to be on the road. Additionally, 2 additional problems regarding the driver's power seat and the radio have surfaced and the both the dealer and the manufacturer have done nothing to fix these problems as well.
