 Description of the problemI purchased a used 2005 nissan titan with almost 117,000 miles on it. Even though it was 14 years it was in excellent condition and well maintained. I searched the nissan website for any possible recalls because another titan i had looked at had several recalls. The search showed no recalls for my vin number. Then i called the local nissan dealer to verify the information. After 2 short trips i noticed it did not use enough gasoline to move the gauge from slightly over a quarter of a tank. On the third trip the engine quit on a rural paved road, fortunately there was a large grassy area i could coast to. I knew some titans had been recalled for the fuel gauge showing around a quarter of a tank when they were empty. Fortunately again i was only 2 miles from home where i had a gas can with gas in it and my wife was at home to bring it to me. After filling all 5 gallons into the tank, the truck cranked up and drove with no problems. I immediately refueled at the next fuel station where it took another 23 gallons to fill up, 28 gallons total, that is the entire capacity of the fuel tank. I feel that nissan put my and my families life at risk by not acknowledging a wider problem and expanding the fuel level sending unit recall. Fuel level is a safety concern right after brakes, steering and tires, not to be overlooked. This situation could have ended in tragedy, many people have lost their life because they ran out of gasoline and it put them in a dangerous situation. Even though the engine shutting off is not a danger in itself, like with an airplane, it's what happens after the vehicle stops and the other traffic is still moving that results in tragedy.
