LEAVING WORK, I TRIED TO START MY CAR AND IT TRIED TO TURN OVER BUT STOPPED. THE DASH LIGHTS WENT DIM AND THE NEEDLE INDICATORS QUIVERED AND THE CAR QUIT TRYING TO START. I CLEANED THE BATTERY TERMINALS AND THE CAR CRANKED CONTINUOUSLY BUT WOULDNT TURN OVER. AFTER GETTING IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC WHOSE COMPUTER COULDNT COMMUNICATE WITH THE VEHICLE COMPUTER, THEN A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP (NO NISSAN DEALER IN MY TOWN) WHO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, MY COWORKER BROUGHT ME A COPY OF A RECALL BY NISSAN FOR HIS 2006 PATHFINDER FOR A ENGINE CONTROL MODULE. I HAD IT TOWED FOR A 3RD TIME (TOTAL OF $415.00) TO THE NISSAN DEALER IN HELENA, MT 65 MILES AWAY, THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A BAD E.C.M. ENGINE CONTROL MODULE. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN SAID "I WAS LUCKY I WASN'T ON THE HIGHWAY"!!!! NOW IM OUT OF $1700.00 FOR A BAD ECM THAT I WAS NOT NEGLEGENT IN BREAKING, ON A VEHICLE LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD. I FEEL SINCE IT WAS A FAULTY PART, I SHOULDNT HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. NOW IM IN MORE DEBT!!! *TR

I TOOK MY 2009 NISSAN ARMADA SE TO ESSERMAN NISSAN IN MIAMI FLORIDA TO THE SERVICE CENTER IN REFERENCE TO MY FUEL GAUGE WAS MARKING HALF WHEN I JUST FILLED MY TANK ALL THE WAY. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR NUMEROUS TIMES AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. AFTER SEVERAL TIMES OF TAKING MY VEHICLE FOR THE SAME THING THEY FINALLY CONCLUDED THAT IT WAS ON A RECALL LIST. NOW ITS BEEN ABOUT 4 MONTHS AND IM TOLD THAT THEY STILL DON'T HAVE THE PART. NOW I HAVE A BRAND NEW CAR THAT I CANT TELL HOW MUCH GAS I HAVE IN IT. THIS MILLION DOLLAR COMPANY (NISSAN) IS QUICK TO SELL ME A CAR BUT CANT FIX A SMALL PROBLEM FOR ME. CAN YOU HELP!!? *TR
