NHTSA Complaint #10892454 — 2005 NISSAN SENTRA

MY NISSAN 2005 SENTRA COMPLETELY DIED AT 75000 MILES. THE CAR GAVE NO WARNING JUST COMPLETELY DID NOT START ONE MORNING. TOOK IT THE REPAIR SHOP AND THE TECHNICIAN ADVISED ME THAT ONE OF THE ENGINE CYLINDERS WASN'T FIRING AND IT WOULD COST 1600 TO REPAIR. MY COMPLAINT IS HOW CAN A VEHICLE THAT HAS BEEN SERVICED AT IT'S PROPER SERVICING INTERVALS AND UNDER 100 K MILES POSSIBLY HAVE ENGINE ISSUES. MY VEHICLE NOW OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY SITS IN MY DRIVEWAY COLLECTING DUST. I HAVE DONE RESEARCH ONLINE AND HAVE COME TO THE UNDERSTANDING THAT MANY NISSAN SENTRA 05 OWNERS HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM WHICH CLEARLY INDICATES FAULT FROM THE MANUFACTURER ( NISSAN). THIS WAS MY VERY FIRST BRAND NEW VEHICLE THAT I PURCHASED FROM NISSAN. I ALSO CURRENTLY PURCHASED A NISSAN MAXIMAL 09 WHICH I TOOK A LEAP OF FAITH THINKING I WAS GETTING A BETTER QUALITY VEHICLE IN COMPARISON TO THE SENTRA AND NOW THIS VEHICLE HAS STARTED ALSO STARTED TO GIVE ME PROBLEMS ( STEERING LOCK MODULE) ANOTHER DEFECTIVE PART FROM THE MANUFACTURER. IN WHICH I HAD TO COME OUT OF POCKET $ 1000 TO FIX. THIS EXPERIENCE WITH NISSAN HAS LED ME TO HAVE A BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH IN THE OVERALL QUALITY AND CUSTOMER SATISFACTION OF NISSAN PRODUCTS. I WILL NOT BE A REPEAT CUSTOMER AND ADVISED ALL CAR BUYERS TO DO THEIR RESEARCH BEFORE MAKING A PURCHASE
