2005 Nissan Titan: fuel pump failure

Filed Aug 11, 2020 · Engine, Fuel system · 140,000 miles · AR

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.

I understand there is a recall on 2005 thru 2016 nissan titans for a falty gas gauge but was told that my model was not included, I have run out of gas with my gauge showing a 1/4 tank of fuel up to almost a 1/2 on my gauge but still ran out of fuel, I took my truck to key west, fl. And the fuel pump went out and it cost me over $700 to have it replaced. Now my gas gauge is off even more than before

I was driving on the highway when my nissan titan 2005 started shaking while driving on a modern traffic. I suddenly started losing control of the truck and thank god I manage exit the freeway with the speed I manage to control. I pull over to the right and tried to find out what was wrong. My truck didn't want to turn on and I had 1/4 of gas left so it was imposible I needed gas after trying different methods, I walked to the nearest gas station, bought a gallon of gas with its proper fuel container and added to my truck then it turn on. I contacted my nearest nissan dealer and they fixed 2 recalls that my truck already had but they didn't want to fix my main problem which is the fuel pump. And I read many nissan titan 2005 are having this problem, I found the recall number (10v074000) which the dealer I attended didn't want to fix it. It's been a bad experience because I could of crash and it couldn't gone worse due to my gas not been correctly plus I missed work and it's just putting stress on me I need this fix thank you

While driving one the highway I noticed my vehicle start to shutter and shut down as if it ran out of gas. My fuel gauge said half a tank so I didn't think it was the problem until I walked to the gas station to fill up a gas can. I put 2 gallons of gas into my fuel tank that said I had a half a tank. I started my truck and it started. Since that incident it has happened 3 times, the most recent being yesterday 07/02/18. I replaced the fuel pump today in hopes that it fixes the problem.

I have a 2005 nissan titan which I purchased used at 23,000 miles. Two years ago (2013) I heard a loud noise coming from the front differential. I took it to a mechanic and I was told that the u-joints failed which cost $1400 dollars. Now, march 2015, I again heard a loud noise coming from the front differential. I found that the right axle had popped out. I took it to a mechanic and I was told that the front differential failed which cost $2300 dollars. I was told by my mechanic that both of these incidents could have caused me to crash and that I was lucky. I have had several other issues with this vehicle (fuel pump, brakes, exhaust system). I was also contacted by an attorney who informed me that he was conducting a law suite and wanted to know what issues I have had. The attorney informed me that my vehicle was deemed a "lemon" by the first owner.

Nissan ipdm (intelligent power distribution module) which houses the fuel pump relay will inadvertently shut off power to the fuel pump. It has happened to me from a parked vehicle and has also happened to me while I was driving down the road. There is no timed sequence as to when this happens, but when it does you lose power to the vehicle immediately. The vehicle will re-start after sitting for 10 minutes, but may cut out again 15 minutes later.
