Description of the problem | I was riding down i25 when my truck engine unexpectedly quit. At 75 mph it was all i could do to change lanes and pull over to the median without causing an accident. The fuel gauge showed that i still had 1/4 tank of gas. I tried repeatedly to start the truck without success. After scratching my head for a while i called my son to bring me some gas. After adding gas the truck started up after a few turns of the ignition. Not knowing what the heck had happened i continued driving the truck. Unfortunately i ran out of gas again some week later, this time in a neighborhood where the speed issue was not quite as severe. Since that time i've ignored my fuel gauge and determined when to refuel by mileage. This is really aggravating because there is a recall on titan fuel senders for model year 2005. However nissan is telling me that my vin is not covered by the recall. |
