Their is a current recall on the fuel system for the gauge reading incorrectly and could cause an accident. My truck is having that issue, but my VIN shows not to be under that recall. I am also having engine problems that I also believe to be due to a failing fuel pump or possibly one of the other many problems with engine performance on this model titan. I don't understand why the recall for the fuel gauge problem is not covering my vehicle , I have had many problems with my nissan titan since I bought it brand new and absolutely no help from nissan to fix faulty parts, including the valve cover that if clogged will allow engine oil down into the valves and cylinder and cause smoking problem, and eventually ruin the engine cylinder. My titan will not take fuel and starts staling out at 2000 RPM causing me to almost be in several accidents already. All vehicles with parts that are being recalled should be involved in the recall. Nissan should'nt be able to pic and choose who gets covered, they should man up and fix their cheap parts when they fail.

Cracked exhaust manifold found by dealer on an inspection but has been cracked for several years. When I researched the crack I found it to be an issue with no recall.

For the past three months, I've spent over $3,000 diagnosing and "fixing" erroneous warning lights. This past week, my truck (2005 titan) would not start. The first time, it just cranked the starter, but would not engage. Now, I can turn the ignition to start and the starter won't even engage (no "clicking" noise, no noise whatsoever). It will start after several attempts, but I have to wait at least 2-3 minutes between each attempt. I've replaced the ECM (at my own expense) and it still does not start properly. It appears (from reading online posts in titan forums) that the issue is the ipdm (intelligent power distribution module). The symptoms all line up. I feel lucky that my engine has not completely stopped while driving (yet). This is an utter hazard and needs to be addressed before someone loses their life because nissan will not address the ipdm problem and recall/replace those that are faulty.

The ipdm (intelligent power distribution module has failed four times on this vehicle. When failure occurs the vehicle will stall, not crank,and runs rough. This has happened in traffic many times with these failures. This creates a hazardous situation. I never know when this failure is going to occur. There seems to be something causing these premature failures of this module.

When exiting highway engine quit running. Fuel tank showed 1/4 tank left. Highway support vehicle stop to help, gave me some gas, about 1 gallon. Still would not start, had vehicle towed. Put 2 more gallons of fuel in tank, vehicle started. Found a the federal safety agency campaign id number 10v074000, for 2005-2009 titan's for this exact same problem, but for some reason my titan is not covered even though it's a 2005. I have called my local dealer and nissan customer service with no help. Just asking why my titan is not covered? I have uploaded a file of the campaign id number.
