MY MECHANIC TELLS ME MAXIMA 2011 HAS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO REPROGRAM THE ECM. "SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT SOON KEEPS APPEARING" THIS SHOULD BE A FREE SERVICE BECAUSE MY CAR DOES NOT NEED A NEW MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR. PLEASE FACTORY RECALL THIS ISSUE. MY CAR IS ACTUALLY IN GREAT SHAPE AT 49,000 MILES. HERE ARE THE LIST OF CARS AFFECTED. HTTPS://WWW.AUTOCODES.COM/P0101_NISSAN.HTML I WENT TO BAY RIDGE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND TELLS ME MY WARRENTY DOES NOT COVER THIS SERVICE AND THERE IS NO FACTORY RECALL OR BULLETIN. HE WANTS ME TO BUY A NEW PART ($260.00 USD) AND REPROGRAM THE ECM ($175.00 USD). THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.
THE FRONT TURN SIGNAL LAMP ON THE MAXIMA IS 2" BELOW THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT. 31/2" CENTER TO CENTER. WHEN THIS VEHICLE IS ONCOMING WITH THE HEADLAMPS ON, THE TURN SIGNAL IS VIRTUALLY BLOTTED OUT BY THE GLARE OF THE HEADLAMP. THIS IS A PROBLEM ON MANY MAKES AND MODELS OF VEHICLES. THIS CONDITION IS EVEN WORSE FOR ONE THAT WEARS EYEGLASSES AND/OR HAS MILD CATARACTS AS THIS CAUSES THE ONCOMING HEADLIGHTS TO APPEAR TO FLARE. THE FRONT TURN SIGNAL LAMP SHOULD NEVER BE CLOSER THAN 6" TO THE HEADLAMPS. CONDITIONS: VEHICLE STOPPED AND READY TO TURN. WORSE AT NIGHT. CITY STREET OR COUNTRY ROAD.
