2005 NISSAN TITAN Fuel/propulsion System Problems

Engine stalled while driving then would crank but not start

My truck just stopped in the middle of the road while driving. I could not move the steering wheel and the engine would not turn over. The gas hand was registering a quarter of a tank of fuel so I did not think that I had run out of gas. After being towed to the shop the mechanic checked the vehicle and said that it was just out of gas but the gas gauge was still registering 1/4 of a tank of gas. Gas was put in the truck and it started right up. The mechanic informed me of a recall on the 2005 nissan titans that matched what was happening to my truck. When I informed nissan they told me there is a recall but that my vin number is not included in the recall. I have had the same incident where the truck just shut off 2 more times now and this should be covered by the nissan recall since this is the exact problem that is happening to my truck that is stated in the recall and my truck is the exact year. Can someone please help me to get nissan to honor this recall for my truck? Recall ID#68290

THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE INACCURATELY DISPLAYS THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAS SOME FUEL, AT ONE QUARTER TANK, WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS ACTUALLY EMPTY. THIS COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF GAS AND STALL ON THE HIGHWAY, WHICH COULD CAUSE A CRASH. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY TRUCK WAS NOT AFFECTED EVEN THOUGH IT IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

THE FEEL GAUGE DOES NOT SHOW ACCURATE GASOLINE LEVELS. IT DOES THIS REGARDLESS OF SPEED OR WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AS IF YOU WERE TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND RAN OUT OF GAS YOU COULD CAUSE A CRASH. THE FUEL GAUGE CAN SHOW YOU HAVE HALF A TANK BUT YOU ONLY ACTUALLY HAVE A QUARTER OF A TANK. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS FOR ANOTHER MODEL BUT NOT FOR MINE.

INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE NOT PROPERLY READING AMOUNT OF FUEL IN TANK. THIS CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF GAS AND STALL ON THE CITY STREET, WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH.

I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS AND ITS GETTING WORSE FUEL TANK IS HARD TO FILL AND MAKES A WHISTLING SOUND.

GAS GUAGE SAYS 189 THEN DROPS TO 70 AND CHANGES EVERY 5 MINS AND ITS DIED WITH READING HALF FULL AND 197 MILES TILL EMPTY IT FLUCTUATES IN MOTION AT A STOP AT RANDOM TIMES

THEIR IS A CURRENT RECALL ON THE FUEL SYSTEM FOR THE GAUGE READING INCORRECTLY AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. MY TRUCK IS HAVING THAT ISSUE, BUT MY VIN SHOWS NOT TO BE UNDER THAT RECALL. I AM ALSO HAVING ENGINE PROBLEMS THAT I ALSO BELIEVE TO BE DUE TO A FAILING FUEL PUMP OR POSSIBLY ONE OF THE OTHER MANY PROBLEMS WITH ENGINE PERFORMANCE ON THIS MODEL TITAN. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE RECALL FOR THE FUEL GAUGE PROBLEM IS NOT COVERING MY VEHICLE , I HAVE HAD MANY PROBLEMS WITH MY NISSAN TITAN SINCE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW AND ABSOLUTELY NO HELP FROM NISSAN TO FIX FAULTY PARTS, INCLUDING THE VALVE COVER THAT IF CLOGGED WILL ALLOW ENGINE OIL DOWN INTO THE VALVES AND CYLINDER AND CAUSE SMOKING PROBLEM, AND EVENTUALLY RUIN THE ENGINE CYLINDER. MY TITAN WILL NOT TAKE FUEL AND STARTS STALING OUT AT 2000 RPM CAUSING ME TO ALMOST BE IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS ALREADY. ALL VEHICLES WITH PARTS THAT ARE BEING RECALLED SHOULD BE INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. NISSAN SHOULD'NT BE ABLE TO PIC AND CHOOSE WHO GETS COVERED, THEY SHOULD MAN UP AND FIX THEIR CHEAP PARTS WHEN THEY FAIL.

I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND STOPPED FOR A RED TRAFFIC SIGNAL TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN ONTO A HIGHWAY. WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STOPPED RUNNING. I WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE. I WAS BLOCKING THE LANE OF TRAFFIC TO ENTER THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED AS IT WOULD NOT START AND IT WAS A TRAFFIC HAZARD/BLOCKING TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP. THE MECHANIC DISCOVERED THE VEHICLE'S GAS TANK WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY, DESPITE THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWING THE GAS TANK JUST OVER 1/4 TANK FULL. THE MECHANIC FOUND A RECALL NOTICE, NHTSA RECALL BULLETIN #10V074000 FOR MY VEHICLE, 2005 NISSAN TITAN, DESCRIBING THE EXACT DEFECT THAT MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED; "THE FUEL GAUGE MAY INACCURATELY DISPLAY THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAS SOME FUEL, TYPICALLY ABOUT 1/4 TANK, WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS EMPTY." I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL DUE TO THE VIN, EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE SAME YEAR/MAKE/MODEL, 2005 NISSAN TITAN, AND HAS THE EXACT SAME DEFECT AS THE ONE DESCRIBED IN THE ABOVE MENTIONED NHTSA RECALL BULLETIN. HAD I ENTERED THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING, I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE CRASHED. SEE THE ATTACHED DIAGNOSTIC REPAIR INVOICE, NHTSA RECALL BULLETIN #10V074000, AND NISSAN SERVICE BULLETIN. I BELIEVE THAT MY VEHICLE IS OR SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE EXISTING NHTSA RECALL AND NISSAN SHOULD COMPLY WITH THE RECALL AND REPAIR THE DEFECT AT NO COST TO ME.

I 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.

THE FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT READ CORRECTLY BELOW APPROXIMATELY A QUARTER TANK. IT OCCASIONALLY WILL STICK AND FLUCTUATE BUT ALWAYS AROUND A QUARTER TANK AND BELOW. THE FIRST TIME I REALIZED THE PROBLEM I HAD TO HAVE MY TRUCK TOWED HOME, THINKING IT WAS SOMETHING MAJOR WHEN ALL I DID WAS RUN OUT OF GAS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE, THE FUEL GAUGE DID NOT REFLECT THE AMOUNT OF FUEL INSIDE THE TANK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE BEGAN APPROXIMATELY A MONTH AGO EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WAS FUELED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BILL SEIDLES NISSAN (10500 NW 12TH ST, MIAMI, FL 33172) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE FUEL SENDING UNIT FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 37522490. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A RECALL ON 2005 THRU 2016 NISSAN TITANS FOR A FALTY GAS GAUGE BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED, I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS WITH MY GAUGE SHOWING A 1/4 TANK OF FUEL UP TO ALMOST A 1/2 ON MY GAUGE BUT STILL RAN OUT OF FUEL, I TOOK MY TRUCK TO KEY WEST, FL. AND THE FUEL PUMP WENT OUT AND IT COST ME OVER $700 TO HAVE IT REPLACED. NOW MY GAS GAUGE IS OFF EVEN MORE THAN BEFORE

MY 2005 NISSAN TORNADOES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OKLAHOMA TURNPIKE AND INTERSTATE I-44 CAUSING ONE OF THE LANES TO BE TEMPORARILY CLOSED. AFTER WARRINGTON A TOW TRUCK AND BEING TOWED TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALERSHIP, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE ONLY ISSUE WAS THE FUEL GAUGE WAS NOT REGISTERING THE CORRECT LEVEL OF GAS IN THE VEHICLE. ALTHOUGH THE GAUGE READ 3\8 OF A TANK REMAINING, THERE WAS NO FUEL IN THE TRUCK. THE NISSAN MECHANICS SAID THIS WAS A RECALL ON THIS YEAR TITAN, BUT ONCE HE CHECKED THE VIN, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT LISTED AS PART OF THE RECALL. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE AS THE VEHICLE CAN DIE AT ANY TIME IN ANY CONDITIONS CAUSING LANE CLOSURES OR WRECKS DUE TO THE SUDDEN FUEL ISSUE WITH NO WARNING. IF NISSAN HAS RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE ON THE 2005 TITAN, AND THIS ISSUE IS AFFECTING A 2005 TITAN, I BELIEVE WITHOUT DOUBT THEY HAVE MISTAKENLY OMITTED CERTAIN VIN NUMBERS. IF THIS ISSUE ULTIMATELY CAUSES INJURY OR IN THE WORST SCENARIO, A FATALITY DUE TO THEIR VEHICLE DYING IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRAFFIC SITUATION, NISSAN SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.

WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY CITY STREET, MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN SHUT OFF UNEXPECTEDLY, CAUSING ME TO BE STALLED IN THE LANE OF TRAVEL. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART AND I WAS FORCED TO PUSH IT OUT OF THE LANE OF TRAVEL INTO A NEARBY BUSINESS PARKING LOT. THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER BUT WOULD NOT START. THE FUEL GAUGE READ JUST OVER 1/4 TANK AND NO TROUBLE LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED AND ALL GAUGES WERE WITHIN NORMAL RANGE. I WANTED TO TRY THE MOST SIMPLE THING FIRST SO I HAD MY SON BRING A FUEL CAN TO ME TO SEE IF THE TANK WAS EMPTY. THIS ENDED UP BEING THE CASE AND THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND I STOPPED AT THE FIRST FUEL STATION AND FILLED THE TANK UP. THE GAUGE WENT TO FULL AFTER REFUELING. I RESET MY TRIP ODOMETER AFTER REFUELING TO WATCH THE MILEAGE IN CASE THE GAUGE MALFUNCTIONED AGAIN AND IT DID. THE GAUGE WILL NOT MOVE BELOW 1/4 TANK. NISSAN ISSUED RECALL #10V074000 ON 3-3-2010 FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE. THE RECALL COVERS THE FUEL SENDING UNIT WHICH CAUSES THE FUEL GAUGE TO INACCURATELY DISPLAY REMAINING FUEL. I CONTACTED NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261 AND THE PHONE REP LOOKED UP MY VIN AND TOLD ME THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. MY TITAN IS WITHIN THE VEHICLE YEAR RANGE (2005-2009) THE RECALL COVERS AND IS PRESENTING WITH THIS EXACT ISSUE.

FUEL GAGE SHOWS 1/4 TANK LEFT OF FUEL BUT CAR OUT OF FUEL WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY NISSAN TITAN 2005 STARTED SHAKING WHILE DRIVING ON A MODERN TRAFFIC. I SUDDENLY STARTED LOSING CONTROL OF THE TRUCK AND THANK GOD I MANAGE EXIT THE FREEWAY WITH THE SPEED I MANAGE TO CONTROL. I PULL OVER TO THE RIGHT AND TRIED TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. MY TRUCK DIDN'T WANT TO TURN ON AND I HAD 1/4 OF GAS LEFT SO IT WAS IMPOSIBLE I NEEDED GAS AFTER TRYING DIFFERENT METHODS, I WALKED TO THE NEAREST GAS STATION, BOUGHT A GALLON OF GAS WITH ITS PROPER FUEL CONTAINER AND ADDED TO MY TRUCK THEN IT TURN ON. I CONTACTED MY NEAREST NISSAN DEALER AND THEY FIXED 2 RECALLS THAT MY TRUCK ALREADY HAD BUT THEY DIDN'T WANT TO FIX MY MAIN PROBLEM WHICH IS THE FUEL PUMP. AND I READ MANY NISSAN TITAN 2005 ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM, I FOUND THE RECALL NUMBER (10V074000) WHICH THE DEALER I ATTENDED DIDN'T WANT TO FIX IT. IT'S BEEN A BAD EXPERIENCE BECAUSE I COULD OF CRASH AND IT COULDN'T GONE WORSE DUE TO MY GAS NOT BEEN CORRECTLY PLUS I MISSED WORK AND IT'S JUST PUTTING STRESS ON ME I NEED THIS FIX THANK YOU

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WILL READ NO LOWER THAN A QUARTER OF A TANK. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THE RECALL #10V074000. THAT RECALL IS FOR 2005 NISSAN TITANS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. THEY HOWEVER DENY THE CLAIM BECAUSE IT DOESN'T INCLUDE MY VIN NUMBER. I FEEL THAT THIS VIN NUMBER SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL AS WELL.

I WAS DRIVING AND MADE A TURN FROM ONE MAJOR STREET TO THE NEXT. I MERGED INTO THE MIDDLE LANE OF A 3 LANE ROAD AND MY TRUCK COMPLETELY LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME SQUEALED ITS TIRES TO AVOID RUNNING INTO THE BACK OF ME. I LET THE TRUCK CONTINUE TO MOVE WITHOUT APPLYING BRAKES OR I WOULD HAVE ENDED UP STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A 3 LANE BUSY ROAD. THE TRUCK WOULDN'T EVEN TURN INTO THE VERY RIGHT LAND WITHOUT ME TURNING THE WHEEL HARD. I PULLED OFF ONTO A SIDE STREET AND CALLED AAA. THE VEHICLE REGISTER AT A 1/4 OF A TANK OF GAS. THE AAA DRIVER ADDED $2 WORTH OF GAS TO THE TANK BUT IT DID NOT START. I WAS TOWED TO A AAA APPROVED SHOP ABOUT 2 MILES AWAY AND WHEN THE SHOP OWNER WENT TO TAKE THE TRUCK OFF THE TOW BED IT STARTED RIGHT UP.

ON FEBRUARY 25, 2017 MY SON WAS GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND HIS 2005 NISSAN TITAN TRUCK COMPLETELY DIED, LOST ALL POWER STEERING, BRAKES, EVERYTHING. MY SON WAS ABLE TO GET THE TRUCK OFF THE BUSY ROAD WITHOUT GETTING REAR ENDED, WHICH WAS HARD TO DO FOR A 20 YEAR OLD. ONCE WE HAD THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED, WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A FAULTY FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT. THE VEHICLE SHOWED OVER 1/4 OF A TANK OF GAS, BUT IN FACT, IT WAS EMPTY. UPON DOING SOME RESEARCH, I FOUND OTHER 2005 NISSAN TITAN'S WERE RECALLED WITH THIS SAME ISSUE, HOWEVER, NISSAN TOLD ME, THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE MY SON COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED FROM THE TRUCK DYING AS HE WAS GOING 50 MPH DOWN THE ROAD. I HAVE TRIED TO SPEAK WITH NISSAN, ASKING THEM TO LOOK INTO MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE, SINCE THERE IS A PAST HISTORY OF THIS PART FAILING ON OTHER TITANS. AFTER 3 PHONE CALLS, ALL THEY WILL TELL ME IS, IT ISN'T THEIR FAULT, THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND RECALL DOESN'T INVOLVE MY VIN. I AGAIN ASKED THEM TO CONSIDER EXPANDING THE RECALL TO INCLUDE MY VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD NO. THE TRUCK IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP TO GET THIS FIXED, BUT IT'S A SHAME THAT NISSAN WON'T EVEN CONSIDER LOOKING INTO THIS WHEN THEY KNOW IT'S AN ISSUE WITH OTHER TITANS. THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN IN THE FAMILY SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW.

AFTER DRIVING FOR 250-300 MILES WITH STOPS FOR FUEL AND FOOD THE ENGINE LOSES POWER AND QUITS. AFTER GETTING OFF THE ROAD AND TURNING OFF THE IGNITION FOR SEVERAL MINUTES THE ENGINE WILL RESTART AND RUN FOR 10 T0 20 MINUTES UNTIL IT QUITS AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS AT SPEED OF 70+/- MPH. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR 6 OR 8 MONTHS. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO SEVERAL SHOPS AND SEVERAL PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED ACCORDING TO THE ECM SERVICE ENGINE CODES. NOTHING HAS SOLVED THE PROBLEM. TOOK THE TRUCK TO NISSAN DEALER FOR HELP. THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND SAID THEY HAD NO RECORD OF ANY SUCH PROBLEM AND COULD NOT DO ANYTHING UNLESS THEY DROVE THE TRUCK AND HAD THE PROBLEM HAPPEN WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THE ENGINE TO QUIT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND AT THIS POINT NEITHER DOES NISSAN. I BELIEVE THIS LOSE OF POWER IS AS DANGEROUS AS THE GM IGNITION PROBLEM WHICH CAUSED A LOST OF POWER. SINCE I NEED THE TRUCK FOR TRANSPORTATION I CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT BUT TRY TO STAY IN THE RIGHT LANE SO I CAN GET OFF THE ROAD WHEN IT QUITS.

DRIVING TO WORK IN THE MORNING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, AT APPROX 65 MPH, I EXPERIENCED MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN SHUT COMPLETELY DOWN LOSING ALL POWER TO THE ENGINE RESULTING IN A LOSS OF POWER TO ALL SUPPORTING ENGINE ACCESSORIES INCLUDING THE POWER STEERING AND ABS. I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING, BY DOWN SHIFTING TO NEUTRAL, WHICH FAILED. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO FIND A FIND A SPOT TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE BUSY HIGHWAY AND CALL FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. IT WAS LATER DETERMINED THAT I HAD RUN OUT OF FUEL, DESPITE THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWING WELL OVER 1/4 OF A TANK OF USABLE FUEL. AT THIS POINT I DISCOVERED A RECALL CAMPAIGN FOR THE 2005 - 2009 NISSAN TITAN INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V074000) AND PROCEEDED TO CALL THE PHONE NUMBER LISTED IN THE REMEDY PORTION OF THE RECALL. WHEN SPEAKING WITH NISSAN IT WAS DETERMINED THAT MY VIN WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS MADE AT THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP BY NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS TO CONFIRM MY FINDING AND SEE IF THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO COMPLETE THE REPAIR FOR ME UNDER THE RECALL. WHEN I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE VEHICLE VIN WASN'T APART OF THE RECALL, BUT DID SEE A SERVICE BULLETIN ASSOCIATED WITH THAT MAKE AND MODEL. IT WAS ULTIMATELY DETERMINED THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO RECOVER WARRANTY MONEY FROM NISSAN, AND INFORMED ME THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR OUT OF POCKET. BOTTOM LINE, IT CAME DOWN TO A MONETARY ISSUE NOT A SAFETY FACTOR ISSUE FOR NISSAN. IT WAS OBVIOUS MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES AS THE OTHER 2005 NISSAN TITAN VIN'S IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN. HOWEVER, BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE IN TRYING TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER, IT IS OBVIOUS NISSAN FEELS THE ONUS OF LIABILITY ULTIMATELY FALLS ON ME AS A CONSUMER AND NOT THEM, IF I WOULD LIKE TO OPERATE MY VEHICLE IN A SAFE MANNER.

HI, I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN AND THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD HAS CRACKED IN THE SAME SPOT TWICE NOW AND IT IS BEFORE THE CAT SO THAT MEANS ITS NOW A GROSS POLLUTER. THE PROBLEM IS YOU GET IT FIXED AND THEY PUT THE SAME PART BACK ON THAT CRACKS AGAIN BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T CHANGED THE DESIGN. THERE ARE 3 OTHER TITANS IN MY TOWN AND ALL OF US HAVE THE SAME STORY. ALSO THE SWAY BAR MOUNT ON ALL OF OURS ARE BROKE WITCH RESULTS IN VERY POOR HANDLING. I HOPE IT CAN BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMETHING SERIOUS HAPPENS. THANK YOU.

WE TOOK THE TITAN TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR RECALL SERVICE AND GENERAL SERVICE ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR THAT WAS ON RECALL NOTICE IS NOT COVERED ON OUR PARTICULAR VIN. INTERESTING THAT THE $110 DIAGNOSTIC TEST I WAS CHARGED FOR SHOWED THAT SENSOR HAS FAILED, BUT NISSAN REFUSES TO COVER MY VEHICLE UNDER THE RECALL. BY LOOKING AT THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE, I CAN SEE I AM NOT THE ONLY CONSUMER AFFECTED BY THIS ISSUE. MAKES ME WONDER IF NISSAN IS ACTUALLY HONORING ANY OF THE RECALLS FOR THIS PARTICULAR REPAIR. INTERESTING THAT AFTER MY SERVICE DATE, I WAS CONTACTED BY A SALES REPRESENTATIVE WITH THE SAME DEALERSHIP ASKING IF I WOULD CONSIDER BRINGING IN MY 2005 TITAN FOR A TRADE-IN OPPORTUNITY. I DON'T WANT A NEW CAR, I WANT THIS ONE REPAIRED WITH THE RECALL THAT WAS ISSUED TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. I CONTACTED THE NATIONAL OFFICE AND WAS ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER AND THE INDIVIDUAL HANDLING THE CASE ALSO DECLINED MY REQUEST FOR REPAIR. ON THAT SAME CALL, I WAS ASKED HOW MANY NISSAN VEHICLES I OWN AND IF I WOULD CONSIDER BUYING A NISSAN IN THE FUTURE. BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS RECALL, I WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER NISSAN. NOR WILL I RECOMMEND NISSAN TO ANYONE WHO ASKED WHAT OUR EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THE NISSAN MOTOR CORPORATION. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, MY ENGINE STALLED. I LOST ALL ENGINE POWER TO MY TRUCK, WITH NO ERROR CODES, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAD TO PLACE MY TRUCK IN NEUTRAL WHILE AT SPEED IN TRAFFIC IN THE LEFT LANE AND COAST TO A SAFE LOCATION ON THE RIGHT SHOULDER. DURING THIS TIME, I HAD NO POWER STEERING OR POWER BRAKES. AFTER I SAFELY STOPPED ON THE SHOULDER, I TRIED TO RESTART MY ENGINE. MY ENGINE WOULD NOT START. APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT, MY TRUCK HAD INTERMITTENTLY STALLED WHILE STOPPED, WITH AN ERROR CODE THAT POINTED TO AN INEFFECTIVE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. I HAD MY MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR REPLACED, MY ECM RELAY REPLACED, AND MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER REPLACED, AT A COST OF ~ $5000 TOTAL. I AM NOW TOLD THE INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE IS LIKELY THE CULPRIT FOR ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS, WHICH WILL COST ME ANOTHER $700 TO REPLACE. IN RESEARCHING PREVIOUS RECALLS, THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL FOR THE ECM RELAY, BUT NOT THE IPDM MODULE. IT APPEARS IN OTHER TITAN FORUMS THAT SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE HAVE SUFFERED FROM THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

THE OTHER DAY I WAS SITTING IN TRAFFIC FOR ALMOST 30 MIN STOPPED WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING (LOTS OF CHRISTMAS TRAFFIC ON THE 5 SOUTH FREEWAY), I PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK BECAUSE I NOTICE AN ACCIDENT. I HAD MY WINDOWS UP AND MY CABIN AIR ON. THEN A FEW MIN LATER I STARTED FEELING DIZZY ALMOST FAINTING. THE CAR NEXT TO ME SAW THAT I WAS STRUGGLING, CAME TO MY WINDOW AND ASKED ME IF I WAS OK. I ROLLED DOWN MY WINDOW AND HE NOTICED THE SMELL OF EXHAUST INSIDE MY TRUCK. AFTER MY HEADACHE WENT AWAY. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME BOTH OF MY EXHAUST MANIFOLDS WERE CRACKED AND THAT'S HOW THE EXHAUST WAS ENTERING NEAR THE FRONT CABIN. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE TRUCK STALLED AND LOST ALL POWER. AFTER GETTING TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY, THE TRUCK STILL HAD BATTERY POWER AND WANTED TO CRANK TO START BUT ACTED LIKE IT WASN'T GETTING GAS. AFTER CALLING AROUND WE DETERMINED THRU A NISSAN SERVICE ADVISOR THAT WE SHOULD TRY FILLING THE TANK WITH GAS, EVEN THOUGH I WAS TELLING HIM IT READ BETWEEN A QUARTER AND HALF A TANK. AFTER PUTTING IN 5 GALLONS AND TURNING THE KEY AND CRANKING IT A FEW SECONDS, IT STARTED RIGHT UP. IT HAS DONE THIS AT VARIOUS TIMES SINCE THIS FIRST OCCURRENCE AND CONTINUES TO VARY. I NOW HAVE TO KEEP NO LESS THAN HALF A TANK OF GAS AT ALL TIMES OR I WILL SUDDENLY LOSE POWER AND HAVE TO PULL OFF. NISSAN HAS A VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN 2005-2009 ARMADA AND TITAN FUEL GAUGE INACCURACY, CAMPAIGN ID#R1010 & NHTSA#10V-074, BUT SAY THAT IT DOES NOT INCLUDE MY VIN. I HAVE TRIED REPEATEDLY TO ASK NISSAN HOW THIS SAFETY CAMPAIGN DOES NOT AFFECT MY VEHICLE IF IT TOO HAS THE SAME PROBLEM, AS I'VE BEEN TOLD ITS THE FUEL SENDING UNIT WHICH IS WHAT THIS RECALL CAMPAIGN COVERS. *TR

MY TRUCK STOPPED ONE SUNDAY I WAS SITTING AT THE RED LIGHT. I TRIED TO START IT BUT IT WOULDN'T START SO I CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. ON MONDAY MORNING I GET A CALL FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY TOLD ME MY TRUCK WAS OUT OF GAS. I TOLD THEM THAT I HAD A LITTLE BIT OVER A QUARTER TANK OF GAS IN IT. HE TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK AFTER A COMPLETE CHECK. THEY CALLED BACK AND TOLD ME THAT MY TRUCK NEEDED A FUEL SENDER UNIT AND A FUEL RING, I TOLD THEM TO GO AHEAD AND REPAIR IT. ON TUESDAY I WENT AND PICKED UP MY TRUCK AND THEY EXPLAINED TO ME THAT MY FUEL LEVELING SENSOR SHORTED OUT. I PAID A TOTAL OF 515.88 PLUS 65.00 FOR TOWING ON SOMETHING THAT HAD A RECALL ON IT. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY KNEW IT WAS UNDER RECALL OR NOT BUT I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT IF I PAID FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. I HAVE MY RECEIPTS AND IT SHOWS THE DATES OF THE INCIDENT CAME AFTER THE RECALL DATES. *TR

WAS ACCELERATING AFTER COMING TO A STOP AT A STOP SIGN. GOT UP TO ABOUT 15 MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ENGINE DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. TRIED TO RESTART BUT COULD NOT. COASTED INTO A SIDE STREET. FUEL GAUGE INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAD 1/8 OF A TANK OF FUEL. AFTER PUTTING IN ABOUT A HALF OF A GALLON OF GASOLINE WAS ABLE TO GET TO A GAS STATION. ONCE TRUCK WAS FULL IT RAN WITH NO PROBLEM. A WEEK LATER I RAN THE FUEL DOWN TO THE SAME AMOUNT (1/8) WHERE THE TRUCK HAD DIED BEFORE. THIS TIME I HAD A SPARE GAS CAN WITH ME. THE VEHICLE DIED AGAIN. *TR

WHILE DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY, MY TITAN RAN OUT OF GAS WHILE THE GAUGE SHOWED 1/4 TANK, STRANDING MYSELF, MY PREGNANT WIFE AND 2YR OLD DAUGHTER IN A DANGEROUS AREA, AND IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY STREET. I HAD TO GET OUT AND PUSH THE TRUCK TO A PARKING LOT. I THEN WALKED TWO MILES TO GET 2 GALLONS OF GAS, FORCED TO LEAVE MY FAMILY WITH THE STRANDED TRUCK(MY WIFE CAN'T WALK THAT FAR RIGHT NOW). I RETURNED, PUT THE 2 GALLONS IN THE TANK AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. I CALLED THE DEALER, WHICH GAVE ME A LOUSY EXCUSE AS TO WHY THOUSANDS OF THESE TRUCKS WERE RECALLED BECAUSE OF THIS SAME ISSUE, EXCEPT MINE. THEY OFFERED TO GIVE ME A GREAT DEAL. 600 DOLLARS FOR THE REPAIR WHEN THE PART COSTS $77. THEN JUST LAST WEEK THE TRUCK RAN OUT OF GAS, THIS TIME ON THE FREEWAY, NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT WITH A SEMI TRUCK, WHILE SHOWING ALMOST 1/2 TANK. UPON RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THOUSANDS OF TITAN OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND NOT BEING COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. I CONTACTED THE BAR AND AFTER THEIR INVESTIGATION, THE DEALER DISCLOSED THAT ALL TITANS WERE MADE WITH THE DEFECTIVE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR, AND THAT THE DEALER WAS REPLACING THESE PARTS EVERY DAY, NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. TO SUM IT UP, I SPENT GOOD MONEY FOR A TRUCK THAT I THOUGHT WOULD BE A SAFE VEHICLE FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY, WHICH IT IS NOT. I'M VERY SERIOUS I WAS ALMOST KILLED WHEN IT HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY. I HAVE OWNED A LOT OF VEHICLES, AND HAVE NEVER EVER HEARD OF SUCH A SAFETY ISSUE THAT ISN'T ADDRESSED BY RECALLS. BASICALLY THIS TRUCK IS A DEATH TRAP, IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL SOMETHING TRAGIC HAPPENS, ALL BECAUSE NISSAN WILL NOT OWN UP TO THEIR FAULTY PARTS. IN FACT THEY ARE VERY DISRESPECTFUL, AND UNPROFESSIONAL WHEN TALKING TO THEM ABOUT IT. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER NISSAN AGAIN, KNOWING HOW UNSAFE THEY ARE AND THE WAY THEY TREAT THEIR LOYAL CUSTOMERS AFTER A PURCHASE. .... UPDATED 08/05/14 *BF *TR UPDATED 08/18/2014 *JS

MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN IS EXHIBITING THE FAILURES AS OUTLINED IN NISSAN NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN 06V459000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM / WIRING HARNESS) AND NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM / FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM). AFTER REPORTING MY ISSUES TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, I WAS TOLD MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN EITHER RECALL CAMPAIGN. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS FINALLY GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER AND TOLD ME TO HAVE MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER DIAGNOSE THE TRUCK AND PROVIDE THE WRITTEN DIAGNOSIS AND COST ESTIMATE TO A NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS SPECIALIST. AFTER PAYING $85 FOR A DIAGNOSIS, THE LOCAL DEALER CONFIRMED IN A WRITTEN DIAGNOSIS AND ESTIMATE, THAT MY TRUCK WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURES THAT THE 2 RECALLS CITE AND THAT MY TRUCK NEEDED THE SAME REMEDIES AS OUTLINED IN THE RECALLS. AFTER PROVIDING THIS INFORMATION TO THE NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS SPECIALIST, NISSAN DECLINED TO COVER MY REPAIRS STATING THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED, I DID NOT HAVE A COMPLETE HISTORY OF NISSAN SERVICING MY VEHICLE AND THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUTSIDE THE LIMITED WARRANTY TERM. I KNEW MY TRUCK WAS OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY TERM, MY TRUCK NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WARRANTY. NISSAN IS NEGLIGENT IN NOT INCLUDING MY TRUCK IN THE RECALL. I HAVE SEEN THIS SAME COMPLAINT FROM NUMEROUS OTHERS IN MY SAME SITUATION, ON THIS WEBSITE AND OTHER ONLINE FORUMS. THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED AS THEY OBVIOUSLY ARE NOT COVERING ALL VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THE FAILURES CITED. *TR

AFTER I TRIED A FEW TIMES AND FAILED TO GET IT STARTED I WALKED TO A GAS STATION AND GOT GAS, PUT IT IN THE TANK AND MY VEHICLE STARTED.

TRAVELING AT 65 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE RAN OUT OF GAS. THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATED THAT THERE WAS BETWEEN 1/4 AND 1/8 OF A TANK REMAINING AND THE LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT HAD NOT COME ON. MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE ENGINE WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. UPON ADDING 1.5 GALLONS OF FUEL THE VEHICLE RE-STARTED ON THE FIRST TRY SO IT WAS DEFINITELY OUT OF GAS.

THE VEHICLE INDICATED THERE WAS 1/4 OF A TANK OF FUEL LEFT AND THEN THE ENGINE ABRUPTLY SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS GOING 55 MPH WITH TRAFFIC BEHIND ME AND VERY LIMITED RUN OFF ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WHEN THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF I LOST ALL POWER STEERING AND THE VEHICLE BECAME VERY HARD TO STOP. LUCKILY I WAS IN A TRUCK AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OF ONTO THE GRASS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, OTHERWISE IT MAY HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH AND FOUND THERE WAS ALREADY AN INCIDENT FILED FOR THIS, BUT WHEN I CALLED SOMEHOW MY VEHICLE WASN'T COVERED, EVEN THOUGH MY SYMPTOMS MATCHED THE NHTSA RECALL 10V07400 EXACTLY. IT WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE AND COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE HAD THE ROAD BEEN BUSIER OR I HADN'T PULLED OFF. I HAD TO WAIT FOR GAS ON A VERY BUSY ROAD WITH VERY LITTLE ROOM BETWEEN MY TRUCK AND OTHER TRAFFIC.
