2005 Nissan PATHFINDER Fuel System, Gasoline Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Fuel gauge has been behaving erratically for over a year. In the last 6 months it works some of the time and dte indicator is stuck to "----" all the time. When fuel level drops below 1/4 of tank, it always shows empty, and even after filling up, it still shows empty for a long time. I can only guess how much fuel i have at all times, based on overall mpg rating and mileage since last fill-up. I've already got stuck once with no gas, thankfully not in the middle of a highway which could have been extremely dangerous and hard to get gas to the car. This apparently is an issue with thousands of owners of 2005 nissan pathfinders, like mine, yet nissan hasn't recalled this units, even though they recalled 2006 and later models, which indicates a major pattern of failure in their nissan pathfinder fuel level sensors. They are forcing me to replace the sensor and pump at a cost of almost $600 when it should be a part replaced as a part of a recall. Please, do something about it. There are thousands of people out there with 2005 pathfinders that have the same problem and nissan is completely ignoring us!!!!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
