ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING, ENGINE
KEY INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT A WEEK PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT. MADE 2 PHONE CALLS TO LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIPS (ONE IN PORTLAND OR AND ONE IN VANCOUVER, WA) BOTH DEALERSHIPS CLAIMED THEY HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOING ON BUT I SHOULD BRING IT IN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WHICH RAN AROUND $118 JUST TO LOOK AT. SINCE NOTHING APPEARED WRONG WITH MY CAR I WAITED BECAUSE THE "KEY" LIGHT WOULD GO OFF. IT CAME BACK ON THE DAY I HAD THE INCIDENT AND LEFT ME STRANDED ON MY LUNCH HOUR WITH NO POWER TO START MY CAR. I AGAIN CALLED NISSAN AND THEY WERE NOT SURE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. I HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHICH RAN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. I THEN RECEIVED A PHONE CALL THAT AFTERNOON TO SAY IT WAS MY STEERING LOCK ASSEMBLY AND THE PART WAS EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE. I WAS TOLD THE LABOR WOULD NOT BE MUCH SINCE IT WAS AN EASY FIX. SO THIS PROBLEM TURNED OUT TO THE A $1,200 FIX. I DECIDED TO GO ONLINE TO SEE IF I CAN FIND THIS PART ANY CHEAPER. I THEN RAN ACROSS MANY WEBSITES AND BLOGS WITH NISSAN OWNERS HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH CAR FROM 2009 TO 2011. APPARENTLY THIS IS NOT SOMETHING NISSAN WAS UNAWARE OF. THE SERVICE REP AT THE DEALERSHIP SAID SHE HAS SEEN OTHER 370Z'S WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM AND JUST HAD ONE TOWED TO THE SERVICE CENTER 2 WEEKS AGO. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT WITH THIS MAY CASES BEING REPORTED AND BLOGGED ABOUT ONLINE WHY NISSAN IS NOT DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. THIS CAN BE A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION IF LEFT STRANDED IN A CAR THAT WILL NOT START. WHEN YOU TRY TO BE PROACTIVE NISSAN SERVICE CENTERS CLAIM THEY ARE UNAWARE OF THE ISSUE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE AND QUICKLY. THIS WILL BE THE LAST NISSAN EVER PURCHASED IF NOT RESOLVED AND REIMBURSED FOR EXPENSE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
ON DEC 2 2014 I NOTICED THAT THE INTELLIGENT KET LIGHT WAS ON. ONCE I GOT HOME AFTER WORK I LOOKED IT UP ON THE MANUEL AND IT SAID IT COULD BE A MALFUNCTION AND TO CONTACT A NISSAN DEALER. WELL ON THE MORNING OF 3 DEC I GO TO WORK AND NO LIGHT. AT AROUND 2030 I GOT RELEASED FOR THE DAY. GO TO START MY CAR AND NOTHING. HAD TO GET A RIDE TO A STORE AND WAIT FOR WIFE TO PICK ME UP. *JS

SUSPENSION, POWER TRAIN
WHEN GO FROM PARK TO REVERSE REAR MAKE CLUNK NOISE AS SOON AS THE CAR START MOVING, OR DRIVING AT LOW SPEED WHEN STEP ON GAS IT ALSO MAKE CLUNK NOISE. BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALERSHIP THINKING ITS UNDER MANUFACTURE 5 YEAR/50K POWER TRAIN WARRANTY ONLY TO FIND OUT ITS A NOT A WARRANTY ITEM AND WOULD NOT BE COVERED. BUT ITS TSB NUMBER NTB12-055D. AND ITS OKAY TO KEEP DRIVING WITH OUT THE REPAIR. NOT SURE IF IT WOULD GET WORST OVER TIME WILL HAVE TO WAIT TILL IT CAUSES ACCIDENT. NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR WITH THOSE NOISE.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:MASTER CYLINDER
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN 370Z. WHILE PARKED, THE CLUTCH PEDAL FAILED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER AND CONCENTRIC SLAVE CYLINDER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. ALSO, DIFFERENT BRAKE FLUID WOULD HAVE TO BE USED PER THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,600.

DRIVING VEHICLE IN LIGHT TRAFFIC AND CLUTCH PEDAL BEGINS SHOWING LITTLE TO NO RESISTANCE, EASILY SINKS TO THE FLOOR. SOON THEREAFTER CLUTCH PEDAL HAS TO BE PRESSED NEARLY TO THE FLOOR TO SHIFT GEARS. CAR IS TAKEN TO LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND CLUTCH FLUID FLUSHED AND REPLACED WITH DOT 4 FLUID. DRIVING CAR THE VERY SAME DAY AND EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS REOCCUR BUT THIS TIME NO GEAR ENGAGEMENT IS POSSIBLE EVEN WITH CLUTCH PEDAL PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. CAR IS TOWED BACK TO DEALER AND INSPECTED. INSPECTION REVEALS FAILED CONCENTRIC SLAVE AND CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDERS. COST TO REPAIR OVER $1000, ACCORDING TO POWERTRAIN WARRANTY PROVIDED WITH VEHICLE THE CONCENTRIC SLAVE SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BUT DEALER CLAIMS OTHERWISE, SPEAKING WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS TO TRY RESOLVING THE ISSUE BUT NO LUCK SO FAR. *TR

THIS IS MY HUSBANDS CAR SO I DO NOT DRIVE IT REGULARLY AND I DO NOT DRIVE IT LIKE A RACE CAR. THE CAR WAS IN OUR GARAGE ALL DAY UNTIL I LEFT SO NOTHING WAS OVERHEATED. I HAD DRIVEN ABOUT 5 MILES AT LESS THAN 50 MPH ALONG AN ACCESS ROAD, STOPPING FOR 3 RED LIGHTS. I THOUGHT IT WAS CLUTCHING ODDLY, BUT SINCE I HADN'T DRIVEN IT MUCH, I THOUGHT IT WAS ME. AT THE 4TH RED LIGHT THE CLUTCH WENT SOFT WHEN I PRESSED IT AND ONLY CAME BACK UP HALF WAY BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET MOVING, THE CLUTCH PEDAL RISING LESS WITH EACH SHIFT. MY DESTINATION WAS JUST AFTER THE LIGHT AND AS I TURNED LEFT ACROSS THE TRAFFIC I LOST THE CLUTCH COMPLETELY AS I WENT INTO 2ND GEAR. THIS LEFT ME COASTING IN NEUTRAL ACROSS TWO LANES OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND A DIP AND CURVE ENTRANCE THAT REQUIRED A MORE MOMENTUM THAN I HAD. 1ST AND 2ND WOULD NOT ENGAGE AND I WAS ABLE TO GRIND IT INTO 3RD AND CLEAR THE LANES. I COASTED INTO A PARKING SPOT AND THE CLUTCH WAS COMPLETELY DEPRESSED TO THE FLOOR AND I COULD SMELL IT BURNING. AFTER MY APPOINTMENT, I USED MY FOOT TO PULL THE CLUTCH BACK UP AND IT ACTUALLY WORKED. I DROVE DIRECTLY TO THE DEALERSHIP, PULLING THE CLUTCH BACK UP EACH TIME AND ODDLY ENOUGH, BY THE TIME I ARRIVED THE CLUTCH WAS FUNCTIONING AGAIN. THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER THEY SAID THERE WAS A BULLETIN ADDRESSING THE 'VERY RARE' ISSUE, SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE BOILING POINT OF THE FACTORY INSTALLED HYDRAULIC FLUID. THEY FLUSHED THE SYSTEM AND PUT IN A DIFFERENT OIL. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR BACK FOR A DAY BUT TO ME THE CLUTCH STILL FEELS A LITTLE SOFT. I AM DOCUMENTING THIS IN CASE IT HAPPENS AGAIN AND BECAUSE THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE MANUFACTURER WOULD HAVE VOLUNTARILY REPLACED THE FLUID, IF THAT IS REALLY WHAT CAUSED THIS ISSUE . *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
AS I WAS MERGING ONTO 101 FROM 880 IN SAN JOSE, THE CAR LOST ALL DRIVE AT THE EXIT OF THE MERGE AS THE CAR EXPERIENCED FUEL STARVATION WHEN THE FUEL ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE GAS TANK SLOSH OVER TO THE LEFT SIDE DURING THE TIGHT TURN FROM 101 AND 880. MY SPEED WAS LESS THAN 30MPH AT THE TURN AND THE STARVATION HAPPENED AS I EXITED THE CLOVER LEAF. THE EXPERIENCE WAS SCARY AS I LOST ALL DRIVE WHILE CARS WERE COMING UP BEHIND ME AT 65MPH. THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE, IT IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 370. I WOULD LIKE TO ASK NHTSA TO STEP IN AND ASK NISSAN FOR A PERMANENT FIX. THIS HAPPENED WITH MORE THAN HALF A TANK OF GAS ON BOARD. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON MONDAY 9/15/14 I ATTEMPTED TO START MY CAR LIKE I HAD DONE EARLIER IN THE DAY WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. WHEN I WENT TO PUSH MY START BUTTON, I NOTICED THAT NOTHING HAD HAPPENED AT ALL EXCEPT THE ILLUMINATION OF A KEY LOCK LIGHT. AFTER CHECKING THE GAS, BATTERY, AND FUSES, I DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS ISSUE. TODAY IS 9/17/14 AND WHEN I ATTEMPT TO START MY CAR I HAVE TO DEPRESS THE START BUTTON 7-10 TIMES BEFORE IT ACTUALLY STARTS THE CAR. I CALLED A NEARBY NISSAN DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT PROBABLY HAD A STEERING LOCK FAILURE, WHICH IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN THE 2009-2010 370Z. *TR

THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED AT A BUSY INTERSECTION DURING HEAVY TRAFFIC. MANUAL TRANSMISSION SUNNY, AIR TEMP APPROX 75 F. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN DRIVEN APPOX 0.25 MILES & 2 MINUTES IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO EVENT AND PARKED FOR THE PREVIOUS 4 HOURS. DRIVER PARTIALLY ENGAGED THE CLUTCH AND SHIFTED TO 1ST GEAR TO INITIATE FORWARD MOVEMENT OF THE VEHICLE FROM A COMPLETE STOP. AT A SPEED OF APPROX 10MPH THE DRIVER FULLY DEPRESSED THE CLUTCH PEDAL (TO DISENGAGE THE CLUTCH) TO COAST MOMENTARILY WITH TRAFFIC AND SHIFT TO 2ND GEAR. THE DRIVER PARTIALLY RE-ENGAGED THE CLUTCH WITH THROTTLE TO RESUME ACCELERATION WITH TRAFFIC. THE CLUTCH PEDAL FAILED TO RETURN TO THE FULLY ENGAGED, DEFAULT, POSITION DURING OPERATION; THE CLUTCH PEDAL RETURNED ONLY APPROXIMATELY 1/3 OF NOMINAL TRAVEL DISTANCE. CONCURRENTLY, THE CLUTCH DID NOT ENGAGE AND SLIPPED WITH REGULAR THROTTLE APPLIED FOR THE SHIFTING CONDITION. PUMPING OF THE CLUTCH PEDAL DID NOT RESTORE NORMAL CLUTCH PEDAL POSITION NOR NORMAL CLUTCH FUNCTION. FAILURE OF THE CLUTCH TO PROPERLY ENGAGE AND DISENGAGE PREVENTED THE DRIVER FROM FULLY AND SAFELY CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE. DRIVER FORCED TRANSMISSION TO NEUTRAL POSITION, INDICATED TO SURROUNDING TRAFFIC AND COASTED TO SHOULDER ACROSS MULTIPLE LANES. DRIVER NOTED THAT NO APPARENT OBSTRUCTION TO THE MECHANICAL OPERATION OF THE CLUTCH PEDAL WITHIN THE CABIN. DRIVER NOTED AN ODOR, PRESUMABLY FROM OVERHEATED CLUTCH OR HYDRAULIC FLUIDS. SUBSTANTIALLY NORMAL CLUTCH PEDAL AND CLUTCH FUNCTION RETURNED WITHIN SEVERAL MINUTES. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN SEVERAL MILES AND PARKED FOR AN HOUR. NORMAL CLUTCH PEDAL AND CLUTCH FUNCTION WERE NOTED AFTER THIS HOUR. *TR

I STARTED OUT OF MY DRIVE WHEN AS I START OUT IN 1ST GEAR THE CAR STALLED.. BECAUSE THE CLUTCH WHICH NORMALLY CATCHES HALF WAY OUT WAS NOW ALL OF SUDDEN CATCHING RIGHT AS MY FOOT WAS LEAVING THE FIRE WALL. WHICH I KNOW WAS NOT NORMAL.. HOW EVER BEING A HYDRAULIC SYSTEM I CHECKED THE FLUID RESERVOIR TO SEE IF IT WAS LOW. THE SYSTEM WAS WITH IN THE MIN AND MAX LEVEL I CONTINUED ON WHEN ONLY A MILE OR SO DOWN THE ROAD THE CLUTCH PEDDLE NOW STUCK TO THE FLOOR AND WOULD NOT RELEASE FROM THE FIRE WALL. IT WOULD ONLY MOVE 2 INCHES IN OR 2 INCHES OUT. IT STILL WOULD ALLOW ME TO SHIFT. I LIMED THE CAR HOME AND SINCE IT WAS SUNDAY AND THE DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT OPEN I HAD TO WAIT TO MONDAY MORNING AUG. 11TH TO CONTACT THE DEALER. WHEN I STARTED TO CAR UP MONDAY THE CAR WOULD NO LONGER ALLOW ME TO SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR AT ALL. I CALLED NISSAN NORTH TOWN IN AUSTIN, TX TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED IN. *TR

DRIVING THE VEHICLE FROM LOUISVILLE, KY TO HAZELWOOD, MO THE LAST FEW MILES OF THE TRIP THE CLUTCH PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. TRYING TO PUMP THE PEDAL IN ORDER TO GET THE CAR IN GEAR AND WAS ABLE TO LIMP THE CAR TO THE HOUSE. THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED 4-5 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 YEARS (ABOUT 38000 MILES OF DRIVING). THE CONCENTRIC SLAVE CYLINDER (CSC) IS A COMPLETE FAILURE AND SHOULD BE TAGGED FOR A RECALL. THERE IS AN AFTERMARKET SOLUTION WHICH COMPLETELY REMOVES SAID PART AND REPLACES WITH A FORK/ACTUATOR MECHANISM. COST IS APPROXIMATELY THE SAME AS ANY WARRANTY WORK THAT WOULD COVER JUST REPLACING FAULTY PART WITH ANOTHER FAULTY PART.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THIS IS TO RECTIFY THE COMPLAINT I SUBMITTED YESTERDAY RELATED TO THE STEERING LOCK UNIT FAILING. I DID HAVE THE PROBLEM (NO CHANGE THERE) AND FILED COMPLAINT #10614959 AFTER DOING THE INITIAL RESEARCH AND READING EVERYWHERE (INCLUDING HERE) THAT NISSAN'S RECALL DID NOT COVER MY MODEL YEAR (2009), BEING THAT MINE IS NOT A GTR. AFTER I HAD COME TO TERMS WITH HAVING TO PAY FOR THIS OUT OF POCKET, I CALLED THE DEALER IN FORT LAUDERDALE, AND HE (VOLUNTARILY) SAID THAT RECALLS ARE VIN SPECIFIC AND THAT MINE WAS COVERED (WHAT A RELIEF). I ALSO TALKED WITH NISSAN USA LATER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT IS NOT A RECALL BUT THAT THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THAT PARTICULAR PIECE OF EQUIPMENT. I AM NOT SURE, BUT I THINK THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT IF THE PROGRAM IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, YOU HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL YOU HAVE THE ISSUE WHEREAS A RECALL YOU CAN TAKE IT IN BEFORE (OR AFTER). WHICHEVER IT IS, THOSE WHO HAD THIS PROBLEM EARLY ON AND HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET MAY WANT TO RE-CHECK WITH NISSAN TO SEE IF THEY CAN GET REIMBURSED. MAYBE NISSAN EXTENDED THE INITIAL RECALL OR OFFERED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY LONG AFTER SOME PEOPLE HAD THE PROBLEM AND GOT MISSED IN THE PROCESS. IF THEY EVER SENT ME A NOTE ABOUT THIS IN THE MAIL, I PROBABLY MISTOOK IT FOR JUNK MAIL AND THREW IT OUT. IN MY CASE AT LEAST, NISSAN DID RIGHT BY ME AFTER I HAD THE PROBLEM. WHEN I CALLED (NISSAN USA) AND ASKED ABOUT THE TOWING, THE REP SAID THE PROGRAM DID NOT SPECIFICALLY SAY EITHER WAY, BUT THEY AGREED TO REIMBURSE ME FOR IT. ANYWAY, GOOD LUCK WITH ALL OF THIS. *TR

SAME PROBLEM AS EVERYONE ELSE IS REPORTING ABOUT VEHICLE NOT STARTING BECAUSE THE SMART KEY PUSH BUTTON IGNITION IS STUCK IN THE LOCK POSITION. I THINK THEY CALL IT STEERING WHEEL SYSTEM FAIL. APPARENTLY NISSAN HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS FOR A LONG TIME, HAS RECALLED NEWER MODELS BUT IS NOT WILLING TO RECALL THE 2009S. SO THE QUESTION IS, HOW MANY PEOPLE NEED TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM BEFORE A MANDATORY RECALL IS IMPOSED? THIS IS RIDICULOUS. DESPITE THE PROBLEM BEING KNOWN, THERE IS NO WARNING ON IT, SO PEOPLE, INCLUDING MYSELF, GET STRANDED IN HORRIBLE SITUATIONS. NOTE TO NISSAN. I HAVE BEEN A REPEAT CUSTOMER. I HAVE HAD 1 MAXIMA, 2 ALTIMAS AND NOW A Z. I WILL FIX THIS CAR, SELL IT AND UNTIL/UNLESS NISSAN DOES THE RIGHT THING AND ISSUES A RECALL ON THIS, I WILL NEVER LOOK AT ANOTHER NISSAN AGAIN. *TR

CLUTCH LOST ALL PRESSURE AND I WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT COMING OFF THE INTERSTATE. LEFT ME STRANDED FOR HOURS ON MY WAY TO NORTH CAROLINA FROM FL. APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 370Z AND LONGER TRIPS. I WAS JUST TRAVELING WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON AT ABOUT 70MPH AND THE CLUTCH PEDAL FELL TO THE FLOOR WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO SLOW DOWN WHILE EXITING THE INTERSTATE I-75N. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED! I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. I WILL NOT BUY OR RECOMMEND ANOTHER NISSAN UNTIL THIS GETS REPLACED FOR FREE. *TR

I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CLUTCH PEDAL LOSES ALL PRESSURE AND DROPS TO THE FLOOR WHILE I WAS TRYING TO DOWNSHIFT TO SLOW DOWN. MY CAR WOULD NOT LET ME OUT OF GEAR AND I HAD TO STOP WHILE IN GEAR CAUSING THE ENGINE TO CUT OFF. THIS CAUSED ME TO LOSE ALL POWER ASSISTED BRAKES. I WAS EXITING AND TRYING TO SLOW DOWN. I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID HITTING CARS AHEAD OF ME WHILE STILL TRAVELING AROUND 50 MPH. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PART. *TR
