Description of the problem	2006 nissan pathfinder was purchased new in sept 2006. In 2008 with approximately 53,000 miles on vehicle, the fuel sending unit failed which resulted in my gas gauge not reading and the service engine soon light coming on. Massachusetts will not pass for inspection a vehicle with a service engine soon light on. Nissan stated that while the fuel pump is part of the power train, the fuel sending unit is not and therefore not covered under the power train warranty. The fix was to be over $400 to the nissan dealer. After writing to mr goshen, nissan north america president, it was eventually covered. I have kids and with the gas gauge not reading, i ran out of gas on the highway, despite my best attempts to track miles driven and relate it to the gas level. Nissan has a service bulletin and knows this is an issue. The government should force a recall as thousands have had this same issue with xterras, pathfinders and frontiers. Someone will be hurt or worse by their neglect of consumers.
