1998 NISSAN FRONTIER- FUEL PUMP FAILED-TOWED TO DEALER IN MID WINTER. DEALER CLAIMS THE TANK AND SENDING UNIT MUST BE REPLACED DUE TO RUST/CORROSION FOR OVER $1100.00. OK'D REPAIR BUT CANNOT BE DONE BECAUSE NO FUEL TANKS AVAILABLE. DEALER HAS TRUCK, TO TOW IT TO A PRIVATE REPAIR SHOP WOULD BE AN ADDED EXPENSE WITH NO GUARANTEE OF REPAIR. DEALER WILL ONLY USE NEW NISSAN TANK THAT THEY CAN'T GET. I HAVE NO TRUCK. *TR
