NHTSA Complaint #10366601 — 2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER

MY 2005 NISSAN PATHFINDER STARTED STALLING LAST WEEK. I WOULD BE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IT WOULD JUST GO DEAD MAKING IT NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. I WAS TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHOM INFORMED ME IT WAS AN IPDM ISSUE WHICH WAS IN THE PROCESS OF A RECALL.I INFORMED THEM I WAS STRAPPED FOR MONEY BEING IT WAS A 700 DOLLAR JOB. THEY SAID CHANCES WERE IT WOULD BE COVERED. IT WAS NOT COVERED! I WAS INFORMED BY THEIR CONSUMER AFFAIR PEOPLE IF THERE WAS INFACT A RECALL I MAY BE NOTIFIED FOR REIMBURSEMENT. I HAVE FOUND ON NUMEROUS SITES THAT IT IS RECALLED BUT BECAUSE I DID NOT RECEIVE A LETTER IT IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST ISSUE I'VE HAD WITH NISSAN. A FUEL SENSOR ISSUE WAS FOUND AND THEY COVERED NOTHING TELLING ME IT WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY SO TOUGH LUCK. ANOTHER 377.00 BUCKS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE NISSANS PRACTICES. I WILL NEVER TRUST THE NISSAN NAME AGAIN. *TR
