NHTSA Complaint #10683916 — 2007 NISSAN VERSA

CONTINUOUS BLINKING TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT THAT STAYS ON EVEN WHEN TIRES ARE CORRECTLY FILLED WITH AIR. THIS IS SECOND SENSOR I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE. FIRST ONE LASTED 6 YEARS AND SECOND ONE LASTED ONE YEAR. ALSO DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE ME 50 DOLLARS JUST TO TELL ME SENSOR IS BAD AND THAT INFORMATION I CAN FIND IN CAR'S MANUAL. I TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY CAR. LOW MILEAGE 48,000 FOR AN EIGHT YEAR OLD CAR. THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT IS A BIG PROBLEM AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN. IT STARTED AT 15 THOUSAND MILES AND 27 THOUSAND MILES AND THEN I HAD TO KEEP TAKING IT TO DEALER TO GET RECALIBRATED...MORE MONEY. THEN THE SENSOR MALFUNCTIONED AND I HAD TO REPLACE THE FIRST ONE LAST YEAR AND NOW ONE YEAR LATER AND 7 THOUSAND MORE MILES IT IS ACTING UP AGAIN AND NEEDS REPLACEMENT. THE DEALER IS CHARGING 50 DOLLARS JUST TO LOOK AT IT. IT IS A DEFECTIVE TIRE SENSOR AND I BELIEVE THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD RECALL THEM. IT IS ANNOYING AND DANGEROUS. *TR
