2008 Nissan Armada

I made an appointment with the dealership peoria nissan for 8:15am on the morning of 4/18/26. I confirmed the recall and brought the vehicle in early they received it told me it should be done by lunch. At 3:45 pm they messaged me it was all done and ready to go. I called and questioned them as to whether or not the airbag needed to be replaced, where they admitted they actually didnt do anything. They started to work on it, realized they wouldnt have time and put it back together. The keys would be at the front desk at sales they were going home. I went down and asked about a rental as the vehicle had a dangerous recall (I had just purchased the vehicle used) they said service is closed go ahead and drive it home and set another appointment and try again. Not only did they lie originally by stating it was all done and ready to go in hopes I wouldnt ask about the airbag. They then insisted I drive it home knowing it was a danger to my family and myself.

The contact owns a 2008 Nissan Armada. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, she heard a knocking sound coming from the vehicle and the air bag warning light was blinking. Additionally, the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where the vehicle was diagnosed and the spiral cable and horn were replaced. The mechanic also stated that the fuel tank and fuel sensor needed to be replaced however, the vehicle was not repaired due to the cost. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to file a complaint. The failure mileage was 144,000.

I HAVE A 2008 NISSAN ARMADA, BOUGHT IT NEW AND MY WIFE USE TO TELL ME THAT THE BRAKES WOULD GRIND AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WOULD GO ON, I USE TO THINK SHE WAS CRAZY, NOW THAT I DRIVE THE CAR MY SELF I KNEW SHE WAS RIGHT, WHEN WE STEP ON THE BRAKE PETAL THE BRAKES START GRINDING AND THE BRAKE COMES ON WE HAVE 3 CHILDREN AND IS PRETTY SCARY WHEN WE TRY TO STOP AND COMPLETELY LOOSE BRAKE POWER, WHEN MY WIFE FIRST TOLD ME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY COULDN'T CHECK FOR THE PROBLEM SINCE IT HAD TO BE DOING IT WHEN I TOOK IT WELL THEN IT DIDN'T DO IT OFTEN, THEN I TOOK IT ONE TIME WHILE IT WAS DOING IT AND THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THEY NEW EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS BUT COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT SINCE I WAS OUT OFF WARRANTY. I THINK IS RIDICULOUS THAT THE MANUFACTURER KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT THEY WON'T DO NOTHING ABOUT IT SINCE THEIR IS NO RECALL, I THINK NHTSA NEEDS TO STEP IN AND ISSUE A RECALL AS WE KNOW THEIR IS A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, I HAVE 3 CHILDREN AND A WIFE AND DON'T US TO BE THE NEXT VICTIM OF AN ACCIDENT. IS NOT LIKE WE PAID PENNIES FOR THIS CAR, HOPE YOU GUYS CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR WORSE LOOSE A LOVE ONE

I PURCHASED A USED NISSAN 2008 ARMADA LE FROM ROYAL NISSAN ON 07/11/2015 AND THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WAS ON AND THEY TOLD ME THE TIRES WERE LOW AND THE SENSORS ARE GONE AND THEY WANT ME TO PAY FOR IT HAD THE TRUCK FOR 3 DAYS AND TRUCK WOULD NOT START PAID FOR FUEL PUMP AND WRECKER AND THEY SAID IT WAS COMPUTER 400.00 OUT OF POCKET WHEN IT WAS A RECALL ON FUEL SYSTEM BEFORE I HAD TRUCK AND WHEN DRIVING TRUCK AROUND CURVE IT IS LIKE THE TRUCK IS ABOUT TO LOOSE CONTROL FROM THE FRONT AND REAR YOU HAVE TO HOLD STEERING WHEEL TIGHT.BUT I NEED MY 400AND SOMETHING DOLLARS BACK THEY MADE ME PAY FOR A RECALL PART SHAME ON THEM.NOW IN APRIL MY BATTERY WENT OUT AND I CHANGED IT AND THE AIRBAG SEAT BELT LIGHT IS ON BLINKING AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME FOR THIS AND IT IS MAKING A CLICKING NOISE UNDER THE DASHBOARD AND REAR BACK DOOR NOW WHEN YOU START IT UP.

MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES - WHILE DRIVING, THE BRAKES BEGIN TO GRIND, STUTTER, AND STOP WORKING. I HAD TO DOWNSHIFT IN ORDER TO SLOW THE VEHICLE, AND PULL OVER. THE BRAKE LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE AS THIS OCCURS. AFTER STOPPING THE VEHICLE, IT MUST BE COMPLETELY TURNED OFF FOR A FEW MOMENTS, AND THEN IT WILL GO BACK TO "NORMAL." THIS HAS ALSO OCCURRED WHILE EXITING THE FREEWAY - NOT SAFE! AIRBAG LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON. MANY OF THE ELECTRICAL PARTS ARE NOT WORKING. WE THOUGHT NISSAN WOULD BE THE BEST VEHICLE TO BUY. BUT HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT MAJOR PROBLEMS. PLEASE SEND RECALL FOR BRAKES AND AIRBAGS
