BOUGHT SOME GAS TO PUT INTO TANK WHICH STARTED THE TRUCK. HE DROVE TO FILL TANK ! FUEL GAUGE INACCURATELY DISPLAYS FUEL READING. CALLED NISSAN TO INFORMED THEM OF MY UNDERSTANDING THAT A FUEL SYSTEM RECALL. I WAS TOLD I SERVICED MY TRUCK WITH THIS RECALL WHICH I TOLD CORPORATE I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH MY FUEL SYSTEM. I ALWAYS ASK FOR OLD PARTS BUT WAS NOT PROVIDED. TODAY, I TOOK MY TRUCK TO PICAYUNE NISSAN TO GET INFO ON COST, DIAGNOSTICS FOR CORPORATE FOR THEM TO MAKE DECISION TO APPROVE THIS RECALL WORK. I SPOKE WITH SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE DEALERSHIP SENDS USED PARTS TO CORPORATE BECAUSE THEY PAID FOR WORK. I ASK I SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO INSPECT OLD WORN PARTS?! DEALERSHIP NOW WANTS TO CHARGE ME ABOUT $400.00 FOR THIS RECALL WORK. WHY IS A RECALL WARRANTY ALLOWED A ONE-TIME FIX!?! LEMON COMES TO MIND!!!! THX. *TR

WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2006 NISSAN TITAN, WHEN SHE WAS ARRIVING TO AN INTERSECTION AND CAME TO A STOP THE TRUCK JUST SHUT OFF WITHOUT A WARNING. THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY TYPE OF WARNING. MY CONCERN IS FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY, WE HAVE A FOUR MONTH OLD BABY THAT WE TRANSPORT ON THAT VEHICLE. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE IPDM INOP HAS NO POWER TO THE FUEL PUMP.BUT, I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND I'M NOT THE FIRST INDIVIDUAL WITH THIS PROBLEM; ON ONE INCIDENT A TRUCK, SAME MODEL DIFFERENT YEAR, SHUT OFF ON THE FREEWAY WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED WERE THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. NISSAN RIGHT NOW HAS A RECALL WITH THEIR GAS GAUGE, BUT THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM WITH MY TRUCK WAS NOT RELATED WITH THE COMPONENT ON RECALL. I QUESTIONED THAT FACT THAT THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE OR ANY TYPE OF WARNING IF THE TRUCKS COMPONENT HAS POWER AND IS ATTACHED TO THE TRUCKS COMPUTER; I COULDN'T GET AN EXPLANATION FROM THE ASSISTANT SERVICE MANAGER AT THE NISSAN DEALER. *TR
THE ENGINE ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN AFTER LIFTING THE ACCELERATOR FOR ONE TO FIVE SECONDS. THIS OCCURS REGULARLY AND HAS CAUSED TWO VEHICLE TO OBJECT ACCIDENTS. THIS OCCURS IN TRAFFIC, SLOW SPEEDS, HIGH SPEEDS, FORWARD, REVERSE, AND IS EASILY RECREATED. DEALER TECH COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG THAT WOULD CAUSE THIS ISSUE. *TR
LAST YEAR OUR TITAN P/UP SUDDENLY STOP 3X AND OUR FRIEND MECHANIC SAID SOMETHING WRONG WITH FUEL INJECTION. IT REGISTER IT HAS FUEL BUT IN ACTUALITY NO GAS. OUR FRIEND MECHANIC FIXED IT LAST YEAR. *TR
FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT READ FULL, IS SLOW TO RESPOND, OR IS INACCURATE. I HAVE A 2006 NISSAN TITAN THAT HAS HAD THE FUEL SENDER UNIT REPLACED TWICE. NISSAN IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ON GOING PROBLEM BY THE UPDATED SERVICE BULLETIN THEY ISSUED ON FEB. 3, 2009 (REFERENCE # NTB08-091A) NOW I'M OUT OF WARRANTY AND NISSAN WONT COVER THE WORK FOR A 3RD TIME. *TR
THE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT LYNNES NISSAN IN STANHOPE, NJ. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FUEL LEVEL SENDING UNIT HAD FAILED AND THE THE 2006 NISSAN TITAN WHICH HAD ABOUT 36,600 MILES ON THE ODOMETER WAS OUT OF WARRENTY. I PAID LYNNES NISSAN $488.00 FOR THE REPAIR.
AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE THE FUEL GAUGE FAILED TO RETURN TO FULL IMMEDIATELY. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN FOR MORE THAN 15 MINUTES THE GAUGE WOULD FINALLY READ FULL. WHEN THE VEHICLE SAT FOR MORE THAN 2 HOURS THE SAME CONDITION OCCURRED. AFTER NEXT REFUEL THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE RESOLVED UNTIL THE VEHICLE SAT FOR MORE THAN 2 HOURS. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALER FOR FURTHER ASSISTANCE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE HAD BEEN A SERVICE BULLETIN DESCRIBING THE PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WOULD GO AWAY AFTER SEVERAL DAYS. IT HAS BEEN SEVERAL WEEKS AND SEVERAL REFUELS AND THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED. *NM
