POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AT APPROXIMATELY 45MPH THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOSS FORWARD MOVING POWER BUT THE ENGINE WOULD REV TO A HIGH RPM, CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH THE OTHER TRAFFIC ON THE ROAD WHILE WE ATTEMPTED TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. UPON TAKING THE CAR TO THE DEALER, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE RADIATOR HAD EXPERIENCED AN INTERNAL FAILURE CAUSING ANTIFREEZE TO ENTER AND CONTAMINATE THE TRANSMISSION CAUSING THAT TO BECOME DAMAGED BEYOND REPAIR. ALTHOUGH THE POWER TRAIN (WHICH I IMAGINE INCLUDES THE TRANSMISSION) WAS STILL UNDER MANUFACTURES WARRANTY UP TO 60,000 MILES, I WAS TOLD IT WOULD NOT QUALIFY FOR A WARRANTY REPAIR SINCE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE RADIATOR WAS THE CAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE AND THE RADIATOR WAS ONLY COVERED UNDER A 3 YEAR OR 36,000 MILE WARRANTY. THE REPAIR COSTS FOR BOTH WERE QUOTED TO ME FROM THE DEALER TO BE ~$6,000.00 FOR A NEW RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION. IT IS ALSO MY UNDERSTANDING NISSAN HAS RECENTLY STARTED TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON CERTAIN PATHFINDERS FAULTY RADIATORS (BASED OFF OF VIN NUMBER) AND WOULD ALSO REIMBURSE ANYONE WHO ALREADY HAD TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR OUT OF POCKET. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A LETTER FROM NISSAN TO-DATE STATING MY VEHICLE HAS QUALIFIED FOR THIS PLAN. EVEN THOUGH IT IS OBVIOUS TO ME (AND THE NISSAN DEALER) THAT MY RADIATOR WAS FAULTY THEREFORE CAUSING THE DAMAGE BEYOND REPAIR TO MY TRANSMISSION AS WELL. I FEEL I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR THIS VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR SINCE IT WAS CAUSED OUT OF NO FAULT OF MY OWN. DUE TO THE EXTREMELY HIGH DEALER QUOTE, I OPTED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE REPAIRED AT AN INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED REPAIR SHOP FOR ~$4,000.00 FOR WHICH THEY INSTALLED A NEWLY WARRANTED TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR PACKAGE. I WAS TOLD THEY ONLY SELL THE REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSIONS WITH THE RADIATORS INCLUDED, CONFIRMING TO ME THAT THIS TYPE OF FAILURE IS KNOWN TO THE INDUSTRY AS A COMBINED FAILURE.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I RECEIVED A WARRANTY NOTIFICATION FOR MY '06 NISSAN PATHFINDER STATING THAT MODEL YEAR 2005-2008 PATHFINDER VEHICLES, AN ISSUE WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT MAY CAUSE THE FUEL GAUGE TO INACCURATELY DISPLAY THE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK. I HAD BEEN EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM FOR A WHILE JUST HADN'T HAD THE FUNDS TO FIX IT. NISSAN IS EXTENDING YOUR VEHICLE'S NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY AS IT APPLIES TO THE FUEL GAUGE SENDING UNIT FROM 36 MONTHS / 36,000 MILES TO 72 MONTHS 72,000 MILES. AFTER PLACING THE CALL ON FRIDAY DEC.3, 2010 TO ROMEO #41550 INFORMED ME TO GO GET A VEHICLE DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED ON MY CAR. WENT TO NISSAN SOUTH PAID $107.48 THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WAS INDEED THE FUEL GAUGE SENDER UNIT TECH FOUND CODE P0463. THE ADVISOR MUHAMMAD STATED THAT MY REFERENCE NUMBER WAS FORWARDED TO A REGIONAL SPECIALIST CHRISTY FERREDA EXT. 1658 FOR FURTHER REVIEW. I LEFT SEVERAL MESSAGES TO FIND OUT THE STATUS AND ON 12/8/10 4:10 PM MELISSA EXT. 1658 FROM NISSAN CALLED ME BACK AND STATED THAT IT WAS STILL BEING REVIEWED AND SHE WOULD GET BACK IN TOUCH WITH ME FRIDAY OR MONDAY AND THAT SHE HAD OTHER CUSTOMER'S AND THAT'S WHY SHE CAN'T ANSWER HER PHONE. SHE ALSO STATED THAT IT WASN'T REALLY A RECALL IT WAS JUST AN EXTENSION OF THE WARRANTY. WHILE I WAS HAVING THE CAR CHECKED THEY ALSO REPLACED A ECM RELAY ON RECALL THAT I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT. VERY UNHAPPY WITH MY NISSAN PATHFINDER AND ALL OF THE MANY RECALLS AND THE SERVICETHAT I AM RECEIVING IS TERRIBLE. AS I STATED TO MELLISA I AM EXPECTING FOR THEM TO REPLACE THAT PART AND REIMBURSE ME FOR THE $107.48 BECAUSE THEY KNOW ABOUT THERE DEFECTIVE PART AND IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO . *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER
OUR NISSAN PATHFINDER 2006, FUEL LEVEL INDICATION FLUCTUATES SO THAT WE DON'T KNOW THE TRUE FUEL REMAINING. BY FILLING THE GAS TANK AND RECORDING THE MILEAGE, WE CAN MONITOR DISTANCE TRAVELED TO ESTIMATE WHEN THE TANK WILL BE EMPTY. WE ALSO HAVE A SERVICE LIGHT INDICATION, WHICH I HAD READ BY MY LOCAL MECHANIC, CODE # P0463, WHICH SAYS ITS A "FUEL LEVEL SENSOR A CIRCUIT HIGH INPUT." HE SAYS I NEED TO HAVE MY FUEL TANK REMOVED TO REPLACE THE SENDING UNIT LOCATED ON TOP OF THE FUEL TANK. THE DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME $90 FOR DIAGNOSTICS, AND THEN IT WILL COST $150 FOR PARTS AND $500 IN LABOR, TOTAL BILL $740. I PLAN TO DO IT MYSELF, PARTS ON LINE FOR $98.95, TO SAVE $650. I JUST HOPE I DON'T BLOW-UP MYSELF AND OUR HOUSE WHILE TRYING TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE. ALSO, CAR WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION UNTIL SERVICE LIGHT IS EXTINGUISHED (DUE BY END OF NOVEMBER). VIN # [XXX] IT HAS 57,000 MILES. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
THIS IS IN REFERENCE TO THE 2005 AND 2006 NISSAN PATHFINDERS AND THE FAILING IN-RADIATOR TRANSMISSION COOLERS ALLOWING COOLANT INTO THE TRANSMISSION CAUSING THEM TO FAIL. MY 2006 HAS NOT FAILED BUT I AM REPLACING THE RADIATOR TODAY TO STAY AHEAD OF THE POTENTIAL FAILURE. (I AM A MECHANIC AND AFTER REVIEWING APPROX 200 INTERNET POSTS SEE THE ISSUE VERY CLEARLY) YOU ARE WELCOME TO THE RADIATOR I WILL BE REMOVING FOR A FORENSIC EVALUATION OF THE INTERNAL TRANSMISSION COOLER, I HAVE MAINTAINED MY VEHICLE RELIGIOUSLY AND THIS WOULD BE A GOOD INDICATOR IF THERE ARE CORROSION ISSUES WITH PROPER MAINTENANCE AND LOW MILEAGE. JUST LET ME KNOW WHERE YOU WOULD LIKE IT SENT. *TR

NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS CONSUMERS AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT: 10/10/10 IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS BEGINNING MAY 2010 HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTING TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE NISSAN REP. FOR THE NORTHERN REGION. I WAS RECENTLY INFORMED BY REP IN SEPT 2010 THAT NISSAN REFUSED MY REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE IN REPLACING THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER IN MY 2006 NISSAN PATHFINDER THAT CURRENTLY, AS OF SEPT 24, 2010 HAS 86,000 MILES. YOU SEE BACK IN APRIL 14, 2010 I WAS INFORMED BY NALLEY NISSAN OF DECATUR GA. THAT I NEEDED TO HAVE THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER REPLACED ON MY 2006 PATHFINDER, AND THAT THEY COULD DO THE JOB FOR $1,200 -$1,500 AT THE TIME MY VEHICLE HAD APPROXIMATELY 80,000 MILES OR LESS YET WHEN I HAD WORK DONE AT NALLEY NISSAN ON APRIL 14, 2010 THE MILEAGE WAS DOCUMENTED AS BY NALLEY NISSAN AS BEING 125,000 IN AN ATTEMPT AS NOT TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE UNDER THE MANUFACTURES WARRANTY FREE OF COST. ON MAY 24, 2010 I HAD A SECOND OPINION DONE AS WELL AS SOME REPAIR WORK DONE AND AT THIS TIME 1 MONTH LATER MY CAR READ 81,254 MILES READING ON THE ODOMETER KNOWING ALL OF THIS HAD TRANSPIRED THE NISSAN REP INFORMED ME THAT NISSAN WOULD NOT REPLACE OR ASSIST IN GETTING THIS MATTER TAKEN CARE OF. IS IT COMMON THAT THE CONVERTER SHOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED IN A CAR SO NEW. AS WELL AS THE RECORDS BEING FALSIFIED SO MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT QUALIFY FOR REPLACEMENT OF THE CONVERTER. IT IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO HAVE HAD 125,000 MILES ON 4/15/10, AND 81,254 MILES ON 5/24/10 NOT TO MENTION THAT AS OF SEPT 24, 2010 MY READING IS 86,000 MILES. ALSO, I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT A CODE FOR THE GAS SENSOR IS BEING DISPLAYED, THE FUEL READING SAYS EMPTY YET I HAVE JUST PUT $45.00 WORTH OF GAS IN THE TANK ALSO THESE PARTS WOULD NOT BE KEPT IN STOCK IF NOT FOR FREQUENT REPLACEMENT OF SAID PARTS. I HAVE COPIES OF BOTH RECEIPTS SHOWING THIS TO BE A FACT . VEHICLE ID # AWAITING YOUR RESPONSE UPDATED IVOQ 11/19/10 *TR
