NHTSA Complaint #10706235 — 2009 NISSAN MURANO

MY CAR INCURRED A FLAT TIRE. CAR TOWED TO DEALER WHO SAID THE FLAT WAS CAUSED BY A SCREW WHICH IS WORN AWAY AND CAUSED THE TIRE SENSOR TO DISPLAY AND THE FLAT OCCURRED. SERVING DEALER SAID I NEED TO REPLACE ALL SENSORS AND SCREWS. I CHECKED ONLINE AND FOUND A RECALL FOR THIS VERY ISSUE. I FOUND THROUGH THE DEALER THAT THE RECALL WAS PERFORMED ON ONLY ONE SENSOR/TIRE...NOT ALL OF THEM. NOW I HAVE A BILL FOR OVER $550 TO REPLACE ALL THE SENSORS AND SCREWS EVEN THOUGH THE RECALL WAS NEVER FULLY PERFORMED. CONTACTED NISSAN HEADQUARTERS AND THEY SAID THE RECALL WAS CLOSED OUT. I EXPLAINED THE RECALL WAS NEVER FULLY COMPLETED. THEY STILL DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE.
