My truck just stopped in the middle of the road while driving. I could not move the steering wheel and the engine would not turn over. The gas hand was registering a quarter of a tank of fuel so I did not think that I had run out of gas. After being towed to the shop the mechanic checked the vehicle and said that it was just out of gas but the gas gauge was still registering 1/4 of a tank of gas. Gas was put in the truck and it started right up. The mechanic informed me of a recall on the 2005 nissan titans that matched what was happening to my truck. When I informed nissan they told me there is a recall but that my vin number is not included in the recall. I have had the same incident where the truck just shut off 2 more times now and this should be covered by the nissan recall since this is the exact problem that is happening to my truck that is stated in the recall and my truck is the exact year. Can someone please help me to get nissan to honor this recall for my truck? Recall ID#68290

The instrument panel fuel gauge inaccurately displays that the vehicle still has some fuel, at one quarter tank, when the fuel tank is actually empty. This could cause the vehicle to run out of gas and stall on the highway, which could cause a crash. There is a recall for this but was told that my truck was not affected even though it is having the same issue.

The feel gauge does not show accurate gasoline levels. It does this regardless of speed or whether the vehicle is stationary. This is very unsafe as if you were traveling at high speeds and ran out of gas you could cause a crash. The fuel gauge can show you have half a tank but you only actually have a quarter of a tank. There is a recall for this for another model but not for mine.

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.
