Truck started dying randomly. Finally it died and would not restart. The truck was diagnosed with having no fuel pressure. I found out that there was a recall on the truck (ntb04-062c) that could cause the fuel pump to stop working. I verified with nissan over the phone that the truck was definitely involved in the recall. I had the truck towed to a local nissan dealership (southlake nissan in merrillville, in). After keeping the truck there for a week and telling me that they had to order parts, they told me that they could not perform the recall because the vehicle was not running. I had the truck towed home today. This recall is specifically for an issue that is known to cause a no start condition. How can I get the recall performed if they will not work on it if it won't start? I now have paid over $300 in towing charges and have not had any work done.

Traveling south on tx 130 near manor at 65 MPH. Bright cool, sunny weather, dry road. Right rear tire exploded. Tread came off in one long strip, which thrashed the car. Was able to safely pull car off road, but damage to right rear panel, wheel well, and fuel filler estimated at between $1500 and $3000. The car had been vibrating at highway speeds for a while, but I suspected a suspension problem rather than a tire problem. Now I notice all tires appear rotten on outside; they had not been holding air well for several months. Have replaced all 5 tires. Car: 1999 nissan frontier pickup. Tire: wilderness ht, p215/65r15 95s, dot #w2vf nna 129. Tire was original equipment with truck, 42000 miles on it, tread wear minor. Complaint filed with firestone, and tire sent to them at my expense. They refuse to accept any responsibility, and claim low inflation and age are the causes of the problem (not surprising since the tire needed inflating every week). They want me to pay to have tire sent back to me, but hell will freeze over before that or before I stop telling anybody willing to listen about the experience and firestone's response.
