Description of the problem	After filling my godmother's 2006 nissan xterra gas tank from 1/4 to full, i notice while driving on the highway that the gas needle never moved from the 1/4 mark. But by the time i got to my destination which was approx. 20-25 miles away, i noticed the gas needle just reached 1/2 mark and "service engine soon" illuminated. Per my code reader, i pulled a code for the fuel level sensor. My godmother took the truck to a repair shop wherein the mechanic charged her to erased the code without troubleshooting, & insisted that she drive until code returned. In the meantime, i found a recall campaign bulletin ref. Ntb 10-031. It is a voluntary recall campaign for 2006 & 2008 xterra (n50), which to my knowledge this is. I called nissan north america (case #31357696/ agent id: 7319344) & gave the vin #. The agent stated there was no open or current recall(s)/bulletin(s) associated with this vin number. I informed her that i was physically looking at a recall, so she advise first that i have nissan run a diagnostic with their scanner & start from there. I also let her know that a diagnostic could be a costly non-beneficial investment especially if nissan's repair estimate is to high. I called nissan passport in marlowe heights, maryland and spoke to a service adviser who later told me that once code is active a diagnostic could be perform for approx. $130. Then i asked, if there was a recall/bulletin which included our symptoms but apparently not our vin number could it somehow be covered. He replied "no." so i then asked if he would like to get information from me about other nissan products such as this vin # that was possible faulty, again he said "no." so i then called nhtsa , & the agent ultimately gave me the phone number to the federal trade commission. With the federal trade commission i filed a report/claim (9549774) about my treatment with nissan.

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.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
