ENGINE BROKE DOWN AT 25000 MILES ONLY WITH ALL MAINTENANCE DONE ,
Car will only start sporadically. Had both camshaft sensors replaced, check engine light still on. Unable to predict when vehicle will start. Sometimes it will rev up but wont actually start. Dealership says it needs ECM and engine harness replaced. I have had to get it towed several times from several random parking lots or streets because it wouldn't start. Wont pass an emissions test even though sensors were replaced, check engine lights wont go off.
The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Versa. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the mechanic retrieved fault code: P0705 indicating the Engine Control Module (ECM) or Transmission Control Module (TCM) failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 107,799.
Transmission went out on highway, car went from 70 to zero while on cruise control on 85 n in SC. Car startled again in traffic causing an accident
HYDROCARBONS ARE LEAKING INTO THE CAR CABIN. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO NISSAN SEVERAL TIMES AND HAD TWO REGIONAL TECH SPECIALISTS LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. I EVEN GAVE NISSAN THE NAME OF THE MECHANICS THAT FOUND THE LEAK AS WELL AS A COPY OF MY MEDICAL RECORD THAT SAID I HAD CARBON DIOXIDE POISONING. THE LAST INSPECTION I HAD WITH NISSAN THEY REFUSED TO GIVE ME A COPY OF THE INVOICE/WORKORDER. NISSAN SAID IF I WANTED A COPY I WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE LEGAL DEPARTMENT. NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW. I HAS LESS THAN 20,000 MILES AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER 10 TIMES FOR THE SAME ENGINE LEAK THAT I MAKING ME SICK.
WHEN I FIRST GOT MY CAR IT WAS FEELING LIKE IT WAS GOING IN AND OUT OF GEARS (STILL DO). MY BRAKES AREN'T GOOD AND WHEN I START MY CAR FROM NOT DRIVING FOR HOURS IT MAKE A LOUD NOISE.
