Description of the problem	Our pathfinder has failed and been "repaired" 7 times now for the same problem. It's related to the issue about the fuel sending units. I was even also told by nissan that the sending unit was replaced before we purchased the vehicle with less than 22k miles. To date no less than 3 units have been installed (including the newly designed one 2x ) to address plastic gas tank issues. On three occasions we've run out of fuel. It registers 1/2 tank and then we run out. Or it is supposed to have 1/2 tank and then drops to e and the empty fuel light comes on. This whole thing has passed the insane level. Once i had to pay 400+ for repairs as the warranty on the vehicle was expired. I tried to argue it was covered under previous repairs but that's like spitting in the wind (nissan as well as the dealer cowels nissan). Since the last "repair" a few months ago it has also failed 4 more times. We're just in the habit of using the trip meter. First question is this is a very serious safety issue when you potentially could just run out of gas on the interstate. Also with all these errors in the computer the vehicle won't pass state safety inspections. Last time nissan refused to replace the sender unit or authorize any repairs or pay for a loaner vehicle. They claimed the mechanic drove it home and found no errors... Is there something you can help out with this issue. With all these repairs all these parts / labor warrantied for 12m / 12,000 miles. Why are they not helping? Can someone assist us here ? [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

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.
