I'M CURRENTLY FINANCING A CAR. MY OIL RUNS OUT TOO FAST. IN ONE MONTH I PROBABLY USED 1000 MILES MAX AND I'VE ALREADY HAD TO GET A OIL CHANGE 3 TIMES. I'M AFRAID MY ENGINE IS EITHER GOING TO LOCK UP OR BLOW UP AND AS A YOUNG DRIVER I'M VERY SCARED OF MY SAFETY ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING ON THE PARKWAYS. *TR

THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT POP ON WHEN I WAS STOPPING FOR RED LIGHT. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN A CRASH ,FIRE , OR FLOOD. THE AIR BAG MODULE MUST BE A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM, THIS IS NOT NO ROUTINE MAINTENANCE PROBLEM. THERE ARE OTHER NISSAN MODELS WITH SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE DON'T LET MANUFACTURERS GET AWAY WITH THIS, IT IS PUTTING ME AND MY PASSENGERS IN VERY HIGH DANGER. THIS IS A ITEM ONLY MANUFACTURERS HAVE EASY ACCESS TO.I PAYED ALOT OF MONEY FOR VEHICLE, PLEASE ADD MY VEHICLE FOR RECALL , THERE'S NO WHERE ELSE TO TURN TO. THANK FOR YOUR HELP AND CONSIDERATION.

I HAVE BEEN GETTING GRINDING NOISES FROM MY TRANSMISSION SINCE THE FALL OF 2016. TOOK THE CAR INTO THE GEORGESVILLE NISSAN SHOP IN COLUMBUS, OH WHERE THEY STATED THEY CAN'T RECREATE THE NOISE OR HEAR IT EVEN THOUGH THE NOISE IS NOTICEABLE WHEN THE CAR STARTS TO MOVE AFTER SITTING STILL FOR AT LEAST HALF AN HOUR. IT SOUNDS AS IF SOMEONE ISN'T PUSHING ON THE CLUTCH BEFORE CHANGING GEARS, THE PROBLEM IS THOUGH THIS IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. I HAVE GONE TO THE SHOP A FEW TIMES WHERE I'VE BEEN GIVEN THE SAME THING, THEY CAN'T RECREATE IT. MY CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY AT THE TIME AND NOW IT'S NOT. I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS WAS THEM TRYING TO NOT REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION UNDER WARRANTY. THE CAR WAS AROUND 90K MILES WHEN THE PROBLEM STARTED AND I'VE BEEN THERE TWO OR THREE TIMES. NOW MY CAR IS AT 123K MILES AND I AM NO LONGER COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. I AM CURRENTLY AT WORK AND CAN NOT UPLOAD MY RECEIPTS FROM MY VISIT BUT WILL SEND PICTURES WHEN NEED BE. I'M SURE I HAVE A VIDEO I RECORDED OF THE NOISE TO, IF NOT, I HAVE A DASHCAM THAT I'M SURE HAS RECORDED THE SOUND MANY TIMES OVER.

MY VEHICLES TRANSMISSION WARRANTY ENDED AT 120,000 MILES. MY VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 145,500 MILES. I'VE READ ONLINE THESE VEHICLES WITH CVT TRANSMISSION HAVE ISSUES WITH REPAIR CODE P0744. THEY HAVE A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR OLDER VEHICLES EXCEPT MINE TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY. I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND WAS TOLD THEY CANNOT HELP BECAUSE WARRANTY EXPIRED AND VEHICLE IS OLD. ALL I'M ASKING FOR THEM TO COVER MOST OF THE REPAIRS OR ALL OF IT. IN THIS CASE VEHICLE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN. VEHICLES RPM FLUCTUATED? JERKED AND LOST SPEED, THEN SPEED WOULD INCREASE. REPAIRS IS GOING TO COST ME OVER $1200.00.

I HAVE GONE THROUGH 5 BATTERIES IN 6 YEARS ONE BLEW UP UNDER MY HOOD. I CHANGED THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE ASSEMBLY AFTER THAT HAPPENED. IT HASN'T HELPED IN KEEPING BATTERIES FOR MORE THAN A YEAR IN THIS CAR. I HAVE HAD THE SYSTEM CHECKED EVERYTHING COMES BACK NORMAL.

MY VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF TOO MANY TIMES TO COUNT UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. IT HAPPENED IN A SUPERMARKET PARKING LOT, ON AN ON RAMP TO GET ON A FREEWAY, IN THE MIDDLE OF A STREET.

THIS IS A 2009 NISSAN SENTRA PURCHASED NEW FROM REED NISSAN IN 2009. IN JANUARY 2016 THE HORN FAILED COMPLETELY. FOR SOME TIME BEFORE THAT THE HORN WAS WORKING ONLY INTERMITTENTLY, AND FOR APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS BEFORE THAT THE CAR WOULD MAKE A CLACKING SOUND WHEN TURNING. ON JANUARY 28, 2016 WE BROUGHT IT IN TO REED NISSAN TO INVESTIGATE. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THE CONDITION AS "TECHNICIAN FINDS THAT THE STEERING COLUMN ASSEMBLY IS FAULTY CAUSING NOISE AND BINDING." WE WERE CONCERNED THAT SINCE THIS IS AN ELECTRONIC COLUMN NOT REPLACING IT MIGHT LEAD TO STEERING FAILURE, AND THE LACK OF A HORN MADE THE CAR UNSAFE. REED NISSAN INDICATED THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE COST OF THIS SERVICE WAS: PARTS$1,956.48 LABOR$ 289.88 FREIGHT $ 80.00(TO REPLACE STEERING COLUMN).

APPROX. 5/26/15 AFTER OPENING AND TRYING TO FUEL MY CAR AT THE GASOLINE STATION I NOTICED THE FUEL FILLER TUBE WAS LOOSE. THIS STATION (USA GASOLINE) HAD RECENTLY INSTALLED NEW NOZZLES ON THE GAS PUMPS. DUE TO THE LOOSE FILLER TUBE ON MY CAR, I HAD TO DRIVE TO AN ARCO STATION TO COMPLETE THE FUELING OF MY CAR. ON 6/10/15 DURING NORMAL MAINTENANCE (OIL CHANGE, CHECK FLUIDS, ETC) I ASKED THE SHOP TO REPAIR THE LOOSE FUEL FILLER TUBE. THEY REFUSED, SAYING I HAD TO HAVE THE REPAIR COMPLETED AT AN AUTHORIZED NISSAN DEALER. I DROVE TO THE NISSAN SHOP, THEY SAID I HAD TO CALL NISSAN NORTH AMERICA FOR AUTHORIZATION. I NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL OR ANY NOTICE ABOUT FUEL DELIVERY PROBLEMS, MY NISSAN WARRANTY EXPIRED 3/25/15. SHOULDN'T FUEL SYSTEMS BE COVERED UNDER SOME TYPE OF SAFETY DESIGNATION? MY NISSAN SENTRA 2009 HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON ODOMETER, SHOULDN'T FUEL SYSTEMS PROBLEMS BE CONSIDERED A DEFECT IN DESIGN OR WORKMANSHIP?
