UNKNOWN OR OTHER
NHTSA RECALL 16V-244, THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM SOFTWARE, NOTIFIED 6/16, DEALER ATTEMPTED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM IN JUNE, JULY, SEPT., OCT., NOV., AND ADVISED ME IN DEC. THAT THERE WAS NO "FIX", AT THAT TIME I WAS TURNED OVER TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, CASE#24846736, IN LATE DEC. I WAS ADVISED THAT NISSAN WOULD DECIDE TO EITHER BUY THE CAR BACK OR REPLACE IT IN 10 DAYS; THAT PERIOD HAS PASSED AND THEY ARE BLAMING THE DEALER FOR NOT SENDING WORK ORDERS, BUT I VERIFIED THEY WERE SENT TWICE AND NISSAN MISPLACED THEM. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITH A PASSENGER AND I FEEL THAT I AM JUST GETTING THE "RUN-A-ROUND". I HAVE PHOTOS BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO ATTACH THEM.

SOMETIMES IT WORKS AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. AGAIN WE ASKED THEM TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT . WHAT THEY TOLD US TO WIGGLE AROUND ON THE SEAT, WHICH IS STUPID. IT'S STILL NOT FIXED.THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND WE WANT IT FIX. NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS. IS IT A SOFTWARE PROBLEM?

WE HAVE REPEATEDLY COMPLAINED TO OUR DEALER REGARDING THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG NOT ACTIVATING WITH A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT. IT DOES NOT OCCUR ALL OF THE TIME, AND WILL USUALLY ENGAGE WITHIN 5 MILES OF DRIVING. I JUST HAD THE DEALER LOOK AT IT AGAIN AND REQUESTED THAT THE SENSOR BE REPLACED. THEY CAN'T RECREATE OUR ISSUE AFTER HAVING THE CAR FOR 4 DAYS, SO THEY REPLACED NOTHING AND GAVE ME THE CAR BACK. I AM COMPLETELY FRUSTRATED AT THEIR LACK OF CONCERN OVER WHAT I CONSIDER TO BE A SAFETY FAILURE. WE HAVE HAD THE ISSUE SINCE WE BOUGHT THE CAR IN APRIL 2016. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
THE FORWARD EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT COMES ON (THIS MEANS THE SENSOR IS NOT WORKING AND THE EMERGENCY WARNING IS NOT WORKING; FURTHER YOU CANNOT USE CRUISE CONTROL WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON). THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FROM THE BEGINNING OF OWNING THE CAR. THE DEALER TRIED MANY TIMES TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM, ALL UNSUCCESSFUL. NEXT THE DEALER REPLACED THE SENSOR, AND THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. THE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR A FEW MINUTES- 5 TO 30 MINUTES AFTER STARTING.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
TWO TIMES IN THE PAST MONTH I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE ROADS. MY GAS GAUGE AND TRIP MONITOR INDICATED I HAD ABOUT 60 MILES UNTIL EMPTY THEN AFTER DRIVING A FEW MILES IT SAID ABOUT 30 MILES TO EMPTY AND SHORTLY AFTER THAT CAR STARTED SPUTTERING AND LOSING POWER AND I HAD TO MAKE EMERGENCY MOVES TO KEEP FROM GETTING HIT. BOTH TIMES I WAS ABLE TO PULL UNTO THE SHOULDER AND DRIVE A SHORT DISTANCE TO A GAS STATION TO FILL THE TANK WHICH TOOK ONLY SLIGHTLY OVER 15 GALLONS AND THE TANK HOLDS 19 GALLONS. I HAVE FOUND THE IDENTICAL COMPLAINT ON SEVERAL WEB SITES AND THERE DOES NOT SEEM TO BE ANY HELP FROM NISSAN OR EVEN AN ADMITTANCE THAT THE PROBLEM EXITS. I JUST RETURNED FROM MY DEALER IN NAPLES, FL. AND ALL THEY COULD TELL ME WAS THAT NO ERROR CODES WERE SHOWING AND I COULD NOT EXPECT THE GAUGE TO BE ACCURATE AT ALL TIMES SINCE IT IS CONSTANTLY RECALCULATING AND CHANGING DISTANCE TO EMPTY. THAT REALLY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PROBLEM SINCE THE CAR WAS APPARENTLY NOT OUT OF GAS AND IN THE PAST I HAVE PUT OVER 18 GALLONS IN THE TANK SO I AM CERTAIN IT WAS NOT OUT OF GAS. I BELIEVE THERE MUST BE A PROBLEM WITH THE PICKUP TUBE, SENSORS OR A COMBINATION OF BOTH. HAVING YOUR VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALL IN FRONT OF A SEMI TRUCK IS NO LAUGHING MATTER AND WE WERE LUCKY TO HAVE ESCAPED WITHOUT A MAJOR ACCIDENT. ON ONE OF THE FORUMS THE OWNER WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT IT WAS NOT A PROBLEM IF THEY WOULD NOT LET THEIR TANK GET BELOW 1/4 FULL. NOT MUCH HELP! *TR

OCS RECALL TO HAVE THE COMPUTER RESET FOR THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT. I HAVE THE EXACT SYSTEMS AS SOME OTHERS IN THE COMPLAINT SECTION WITH THIS RECALL. WHICH IS THE LIGHT DOES NOT ALWAYS GO OFF WHEN SOMEONE IS SITING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. I HAVE NOTIFIED THE DEALER ABOUT IT BUT THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING SINCE IT IS A FIRMWARE ISSUE THAT NISSAN WILL HAVE TO PATCH AGAIN AND NOTIFY DEALERS BY A TSB PLUS I DID NOTIFY NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE ABOUT THE ISSUE BUT THEY GAVE THE USUAL RUN AROUND ANSWER GO BACK TO THE DEALER ETC. BECAUSE YOU ARE DEALING WITH A CUSTOMER SERVICE REP NOT AN ENGINEER WHO CAN ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM. SO IT WILL TAKE ANOTHER RECALL ETC. BY NHTSA TO FORCE A FIX.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OCS (16V244000). THE DEALER COMPLETED THE SERVICE. SHORTLY AFTER THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO EXHIBIT THE SAME SYMPTOMS AGAIN. THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG OFF INDICATOR LIGHT WAS ON EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A 160 LB. PERSON IN THE SEAT. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME BUT PERIODICALLY. I JUST HAD THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE AGAIN AND REPORTED THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. THE DEALER HAD SOMEONE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON AT THAT TIME. THEY SIMPLY GAVE ME A SHEET OF PAPER TELLING ME HOW THE LIGHT WORKS WHICH IS NO DIFFERENT THAN WHAT THE MANUAL SAYS. THEY SAID THE PERSON SITTING IN THE SEAT HAD PROBABLY NOT BEEN SITTING RIGHT CAUSING THE SYSTEM TO THINK NO ONE WAS IN IT? THERE IS STILL A PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR, DESPITE THE INITIAL RECALL. THE PROBLEM DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME BUT IT DOES HAPPEN PERIODICALLY.

SERVICE BRAKES, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
NISSAN CAMPAIGN : PC482 ON 9/92016 TOOK VEHICLE IN TO HAVE ABS ACTUATOR CHECKED. IT WAS WITHIN RANGE FOR RECALL. PART WAS ORDERED. WEEK OF 9/192016, RECEIVED CALL FROM DEALER CENTRAL APPOINTMENTS (SHEEHY NISSAN WALDORF) TELLING ME PART WAS IN AND WAS GIVEN APPT ON 9/23/2016 TO HAVE ABS ACTUATOR REPLACED. ON 9/23, AT DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD NISSAN IS NOT REPLACING ABS ACTUATOR AS CALLED FOR IN CAMPAIGN UNLESS IT HAS LEAKED AND ABS LIGHT IS ON. THIS IS A PART NON-CONFORMANCE ISSUE. WHEN SEAL ALLOWS LEAK, IT DRIPS ON CIRCUIT BOARD WHICH WILL CAUSE A FIRE. REMEDY IS TO PARK VEHICLE, CALL FOR TOW AND GET RENTAL. THIS IS UNSAFE AND REMAINS SO. NISSAN RECALL STATES "YOUR NISSAN DEALER WILL INSPECT THE SERIAL NUMBER OF THE ABS ACTUATOR, AND IF IT IS WITHIN THE AFFECTED RANGE, THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE ABS ACTUATOR WITH A NEW ABS ACTUATOR AT NO COST." MY ACTUATOR IS WITHIN AFFECTED RANGE AND NISSAN IS NOT COMPLYING WITH THEIR OWN RECALL REMEDY.
