Description of the problem	I have a 2005 nissan pathfinder. Around 50000 miles the fuel gauge quite working properly and continues to show both accurate and erroneous indications. I will indicated properly at times and indicated improperly at times. Also the distance to empty calculator has quite working. This is a very common issue with the pathfinders, nissan recently issued a recall for the 2006 and 2007 nissans for this problem. However they failed to include the 2005 pathfinders which have numerous reports of the exact same symptoms. I have run out of fuel twice due to incorrect fuel indications. Fortunately they were both near home on unbusy streets. I have a 2 year old son and i can't afford to drive and unsafe vehicle. Heaven forbid i run out of gas on a 4 lane highway with no shoulders. Nissan knows there is a problem with these and yet neglected to include 2005 pathfinders in their recall. They continue to deny responsibility for the safety of the people that drive their cars. The fix for this cost nearly $500. In my case it caused the check engine light to come on, which in turn means my vehicle will not pass inspection. All because of a fuel level sendign unit that was either engineered improperly, manufactured imporperly or installed improperly. Why is it that the exact same type of vehicles have the exact same problem all around the same mileage. I highly doubt it is coinsidence. In fact, nissan recognizes that there is a issue with the fuel level sending units, yet somehow the 2005 pathfinders don't fit into the recall. You would think with the recent issues with toyota that nissan would be more willing to ensure the safety of their passengers.
