MY 2005 XTERRA GAS GAGE GOES TO EMPTY AND WILL NOT SHOW TRUE AMOUNT IN TANK. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 1 MONTH. ALSO THE CHECK ENGINE STAYS ON AND I KNOW IT IS FROM THE FILL VALVE FROM THE GAS TANK. I HAD ONE REPLACED ALREADY ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO AND THE PROBLEM IS BACK. THIS IS A RE OCCURRING PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN CONTINUING FOR THE LAST 2 MONTHS. ALSO THE LATCH FOR THE REAR HATCH SOME TIMES WILL LOCK AND NOT OPEN I ALSO REPLACED THIS ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. *TR

ON 1/25/10, MY 2002 ALTIMA WITH ONLY 27,000 MILES ON IT, KEPT STALLING OR NOT STARTING DURING 3 SHOPPING STOPS. I THOUGHT IT WAS MY BATTERY AND WAS NEAR CLARK AUTO WHERE MY BATTERY IS UNDER WARRANTY... *TR

2006 NISSAN MURANO SEAT FALLS DOWN AND BRACKETS BREAK WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. I HAD MY NISSAN MURANO POWER SET FAIL WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE BOTTOM SECTION THAT IS CONNECTED TO THE SEAT RAIL FAILED AND CAUSED ME TO GO OUT OF CONTROL WHEN THE SEAT LEANED BACKWARDS I JERKED ON THE STEERING WHEEL. VERY VERY BIG PROBLEM AND I ALMOST ENDED UP IN THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC. *TR

AT REGULAR DRIVING, BRAKES FAILED AT 7500 MILES (WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 47 MPH ON THE 5 FREEWAY SOUTHBOUND). TUSTIN NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOUND ALL 4 ROTORS WARPED AND BRAKES DEFECTIVE. REPLACED ALL ROTORS AND ALL BRAKES. ALSO DEFECTIVE: DRIVER'S SIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR (REPLACED AT 8000 MILES), PAINT TRIM PEELING (UPON NEW VEHICLE DELIVERY). *TR

MY 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA AT SLOWER SPEEDS SEEMS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO LOCK UP MOMENTARILY SCARY ALMOST STOPPING THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AND OFF FOR A YEAR NOW. *TR

I LEASED A 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA AND FELL IN LOVE WITH THE CAR SO MUCH THAT I PURCHASED THE CAR WHEN THE LEASE WAS UP. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, I BEGAN SMELLING BURNED OIL. I ALSO NOTICED THE CAR BEGAN TO JERK REALLY HARD GOING FROM PARK TO DRIVE AND GOING FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS GOING BAD AND THEY WERE GOING TO REPLACE IT. THE CAR HAD APPROXIMATELY 44K MILES ON IT AT THIS POINT. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION WITH A REMANUFACTURED ONE. THE CAR WAS FINED BUT SEEMED NOT TO HAVE THE SAME POWER. ANYHOW, THREE MONTHS IN TO HAVING THE REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION I NOTICED THE CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO THE DRIVING GEAR. THE CAR WOULD ONLY MOVE IN REVERSE. THE CAR ONLY HAS 46,524 MILES ON IT. *TW

HEATER IN VEHICLE WENT OUT HAVE SPENT $999.79 BECAUSE PARTS MELTED NOW APPROX. 2 WEEKS AFTER PARTS REPLACED SMELLS AS IF SOMETHING IS BURNING AND NOW DEALER INFORMS ME I NEED A NEW BLOWER THAT WILL COST AN ADDITIONAL $414.63 AND I HAVE VERY LITTLE HEAT AGAIN. I FORESEE THIS AS A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD AND NISSAN NEEDS TO RE-DESIGN THIS FAULTY EQUIPMENT. I AM TALKING WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND SERVICE MANAGER BUT THEY KEEP TELLING ME I AM OUT OF WARRANTY . VEHICLE HAD 83,533 MILES WHEN TOOK IT TO SHOP FIRST TIME THEY ALSO REPLACED THE RADIATOR BECAUSE THEY SAID IT WAS CRACKED. *TR

WE HAVE 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH THE 2.5 MOTOR, CARS ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WE TOOK IT TO OUR MECHANIC AND HE SAID IT WAS THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR, AND TOLD ME ABOUT THE RECALL. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALER, AND ALL THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE ECM, AND THAT WAS ALL., NOTHING ABOUT THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. I TOLD THEM ABOUT IT AND THEY SAID MY CAR WAS NOT UNDER THAT RECALL. HOW CAN THAT BE WHEN THERE IS A RECALL FOR THAT YEAR, THAT MODEL, AND THAT MOTOR. I EVEN CALLED A NISSAN REP; AND HE TOLD ME THE SAME THING. I HAD TO HAD TO HAVE MY CAR THAT WEEKEND SO I TOOK IT BACK TO MY MECHANIC AND HE REPLACED THE SENSOR AND WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS SINCE. I THINK I GOT '!@#$% BY NISSAN. *TR

THIS MORNING THE CAR WAS WARMING UP IN FRONT OF OUR HOUSE ; IT EXPLODED AND BURNED DOWN; THE FRONT IS COMPLETELY MELTED; WE WERE LUCKY NOT TO HAVE ENTERED THE CAR YET - FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED AND MANAGED TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE BEFORE IT REACHED THE TANK - OTHER WISE WE WOULD ALL BE DEAD AND OUR HOUSE GONE. *TR
