1 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem of the 2005 Nissan Titan

Failure Date: 11/08/2019

I purchased a used 2005 Nissan Titan with almost 117,000 miles on it. Even though it was 14 years it was in excellent condition and well maintained. I searched the Nissan website for any possible recalls because another Titan I had looked at had several recalls. The search showed no recalls for my VIN number. Then I called the local Nissan dealer to verify the information. After 2 short trips I noticed it did not use enough gasoline to move the gauge from slightly over a quarter of a tank. On the third trip the engine quit on a rural paved road, fortunately there was a large grassy area I could coast to. I knew some Titans had been recalled for the fuel gauge showing around a quarter of a tank when they were empty. Fortunately again I was only 2 miles from home where I had a gas can with gas in it and my wife was at home to bring it to me. After filling all 5 gallons into the tank, the truck cranked up and drove with no problems. I immediately refueled at the next fuel station where it took another 23 gallons to fill up, 28 gallons total, that is the entire capacity of the fuel tank. I feel that Nissan put my and my families life at risk by not acknowledging a wider problem and expanding the fuel level sending unit recall. Fuel level is a safety concern right after brakes, steering and tires, not to be overlooked. This situation could have ended in tragedy, many people have lost their life because they ran out of gasoline and it put them in a dangerous situation. Even though the engine shutting off is not a danger in itself, like with an airplane, it's what happens after the vehicle stops and the other traffic is still moving that results in tragedy.

Fuel tank whistles while filling. Also, this causes fuel to stop filling. And, at times, it causes fuel to spill onto side of truck and ground this could lead to a fire. This has happened several times, at different fueling locations.

3 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem of the 2018 Nissan Titan

Failure Date: 09/07/2019

When filling gas tank it has a high pitch whistle and blows gas back out all over the side of the truck and on the ground causing a fire hazard. Nissan knows of the issue and has issued a TSB but I feel it is very dangerous and needs a recall before someone gets burnt or killed thanks for your help.

4 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem of the 2019 Nissan Titan

Failure Date: 05/03/2019

Something wrong with fuel tank as it blew a hole outward from inside the tank like an exit wound from a shotgun shell. This caused the 26 gallons of gas to flow out of the tank and lost pressure. Spraying gas on the rear wheel and brake pads which could have ignited if sparked. No idea when it occured as we were not in the vehicle it was parked after the 3rd filling of the tank and about 100 miles of driving on that full tank.

Tl the contact owns a 2005 Nissan Titan. While the vehicle was stationary and while driving various speeds, the seat belts and air bags failed to operate properly. When the contact fastened the driver's seat belt to the harness, the message "seat belt, air bags" immediately flashed on the instrument panel.

8 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem of the 2005 Nissan Titan

Failure Date: 09/05/2012

While driving down the highway the truck stalled and lost all power. After getting to the shoulder of the highway, the truck still had battery power and wanted to crank to start but acted like it wasn't getting gas. After calling around we determined thru a Nissan service advisor that we should try filling the tank with gas, even though I was telling him it read between a quarter and half a tank. After putting in 5 gallons and turning the key and cranking it a few seconds, it started right up. It has done this at various times since this first occurence and continues to vary. I now have to keep no less than half a tank of gas at all times or I will suddenly lose power and have to pull off. Nissan has a voluntary safety recall campaign 2005-2009 armada and Titan fuel gauge inaccuracy, campaign id#r1010 & NHTSA#10v-074, but say that it does not include my VIN. I have tried repeatedly to ask Nissan how this safety campaign does not affect my vehicle if it too has the same problem, as I've been told its the fuel sending unit which is what this recall campaign covers.
