Description of the problem	The fuel sending unit has quit working for the second time which causes the fuel gauge to give false readings. Nissan replaced the unit when it quit at 10000 miles under warranty but, now the vehicle is out of warranty and the unit is not working again. After talking with several owners of the same vehicle i found out we are all having the same problem, going through multiple units. Nissan does seem to be fixing the problem but, just coving it up. After talking with the dealership they do not want to try to cover it, they want me to pay $400 for parts and labor which i am not going to do. Besides the fact that $100 for parts and $300 for labor is outrageous i am not going to replace this part just have it fail again. This part should be on a recall because it is clearly defective and not a part that should have to be replaced 2, 3, or 4 times or even at 10000 miles. Now my problem is the truck seems to be using more gas because of this. I have been going off of the mileage because i know my vehicle will do a little over 400 miles on a tank of gas but, it left me on the side of the highway in a bad neighborhood at 11:30 at night with 352 miles showing. My girlfriend also has to drive this truck and i fear her safety when she is driving the vehicle. She could get stuck in a bad neighborhood or in dallas, tx traffic it is not easy to get to the side of the road when it runs out of gas. Also, this problem sets off the check engine light and the vehicle inspection is out. They will not let the vehicle pass with this on.
