Description of the problem	Back in november, 2009, i stopped to fill up my 2006 nissan 4x4 frontier extended cab pickup truck with gas. After filling tank, started the engine and put truck in gear to pull out of gas station and the gas gauge e (empty) light came on and check engine light came on and stays on till this day. I took it to a dealer to find out problem why gas gage quit working on my 51,000 mile truck at the time and they wanted to charge me $600. 00 to replace the fuel level sending unit which is inside the fuel tank. Of course i haven't had the money to get it fixed. I never know how much gas i have because the gage is not working. I ran out of gas 1 time, luckily while i was strolling in to a gas station. I have since found out nissan will be implementing a recall on certain models year 2006 & 2008 frontier pickups, xterra and pathfinder vehicles. The problem that the recall states was the molded fuel tank shells can deform, causing the fuel sender float arm to contact an embossment molded into the tank shell causing the instrument panel fuel gauge to show that the vehicle has approximately one quarter tank when the fuel tank is empty. This could cause the vehicle to run out of gas and stall in traffic, increasing the risk of a crash, which came close to happening to me two days ago. I called nissan regarding a recall notice i found out on the internet, recalling these vehicles manufactured from 01/23/2006 to 3/16/2006. Mine was manufactured 06/2006 and i was told my vin number did not show up on their recall database list. My complaint, my truck has the same defective part, i'm driving under dangerous conditions, i need nissan to stand behind their products and replace this part with no charge to me, the consumer. I'm taking a chance every time i drive this truck in the gas running out, and my vehicle stalling on the major interstate causing crash, injury, possibly death. I want my vehicle repaired now, not have to wait until my vin no. Shows up on a recall list.
