MY FUEL LINE IS NOT STANDING UP TO WORK AND IS LEADKING, SAME AS THE KIA. EXPENSIVE REPAIR TO TAKE CAREOF THIS

I PURCHASED MY 2005 NISSAN SENTRA FROM A PRIVATE SELLER IN 2007 WITH THE TOTAL MILEAGE OF 9,100. AFTER SIX MONTHS OF DRIVING THE SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON AND I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHOM I HAVE USED FOR ALL MY AUTOMOBILES. I WAS TOLD THE SEAL ON THE VAPOR HOSE WAS LOOSE AND HE COULD TIGHTEN IT, BUT IT WOULD ONLY BE A TEMPORARY FIX. THE COST TO REPAIR THE SEAL WAS OUT OF MY PRICE RANGE. SINCE 2007 THE SERVICE LIGHT ON MY DASH WOULD LIGHT UP INTERMITTENTLY WHETHER THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION OR STATIONARY. I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE LIGHT TO SWITCH OFF BEFORE I COULD GO FOR AN INSPECTION STICKER. A COUPLE OF TIMES THE INSPECTORS AT THE STATION TOLD ME OF THE VAPOR LEAK AND WERE NICE ENOUGH TO TIGHTEN THE SEAL TO THE VAPOR HOSE SO THE CAR COULD PASS INSPECTION. TO DATE THE SEAL ON THE VAPOR HOSE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED AND I AM CONCERNED ABOUT A FIRE HAZARD. IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT THE VIN ON THIS SPECIFIC 2005 NISSAN SENTRA DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN #05V269000 FOR THE FUEL TANK VAPOR HOSE. WHAT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND IS WHY THIS VEHICLE IS HAVING THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM. AND IT IS A PROBLEM. STARTED 01/07/2010

Nissan Dealer locally will not repair my vehicle as per the recall for my air bags. Have driven out of town to a Nissan dealer and they said they did not have the part in stock and could not fix it. I would like to have my car fixed before the passenger air bag EXPLODES.

I had an appointment for 10am I called ahead to confirm the estimated amount of time I was told it would take 2-4 hours. When I arrived they refused to service my vehicle they claimed they we're busy and refused to service my recall and treated me like a nuisance and with little respect. I spoke to the Nissan representative of San Leandro on Marina Blvd.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN SENTRA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. BANISTER NISSAN OF CHESAPEAKE (LOCATED AT 930 N BATTLEFIELD BLVD, CHESAPEAKE, VA 23320, (757) 214-6342) WAS CONTACTED AND A DIAGNOSTIC APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED AND STILL PENDING.

ENDLESS REPAIRS CONTUING OVER HEADLIGHTS, WHICH KEEP BLOWING OUT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN AND WHERE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS ALL BY THEMSELVES STOP CONNECTING SWO THAT THERE IS INTERMITTENT HEADLIGHTS. THIS HAPPENS OVER AND OVER AND OVER. HEADLIGHT BULB HARDLY WORK FOR LONG. THIS HAPPENS OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN - NOT JUST ONE ONE DAY.

I purchased a 2005 Nissan Sentra on [XXX] from TMZ Auto Sales. The front passenger and driver side calipers, rotors, brake pads, brake hoses, front driver side hub bearings and knuckle hook up, were replaced by me, and the left passenger side ball joint needs to be repaired. All repairs were done within 30-60 days of purchase. The dealer replaced the front driver side caliper and brake, but I had to replace them a second time, and the dealership also replaced the sensor that he thought needed to be replaced, but the check engine light is still on. I was driving to and from work with my grandchildren and the brakes, calipers, rotors would start to malfunction. My daughter and myself were driving when the front driver side and passenger brake hose malfunctioned. The dealership confirmed that both front calipers and brake pads needed to be replaced and he claimed to have fixed them both when he came to my house. The dealership also knew that both front brake hoses needed to be repaired and told me to have them replaced by the guy who was repairing the front passenger side caliper and brake that he allegedly fixed. The other problems were confirmed and resolved by my friends who work on cars. The front driver side brakes started to make a squeaking noise on September 2nd 2025 and I took the vehicle to my friend who works on cars. and he stated that the front passenger side brakes and caliper was not functioning properly. The car has not been inspected by anyone. The check engine light was on when I purchased the vehicle. The dealership worker, Wesley, stated that the check engine light might be related to the car needing a new gas cap. Wesley also stated prior to me purchasing the car that the car runs good, "I only need to change both brake pads and calipers".

I BROUGHT MY 05 NISSAN SENTRA IN MARCH 2005. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR REGULAR VISITS, AND EVERY TIME FOR A YEAR EVERYTHING SEEMED FINE. THEN IN APRIL OF 2006 MY CAR WOULDN'T START. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE MOSSY NISSAN ON MILE OF CARS IN NATIONAL CITY (WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE) TWO AND EACH TIME THEY SAID THEY FIXED IT. THE THIRD TIME I TOOK IT BACK BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T START THEY SAID THAT I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE! AND WANTED ME TO PAY FOR IT. I WAS PREGNANT ON BED REST AND HAVING TO ARGUE WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND NISSAN CORP. THAT REGULAR MAINTENANCE NEVER REVEALED ANY PROBLEMS AND THAT IF THERE WERE PROBLEMS THEY SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT THEM. I INFORMED THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE TO HONOR THE 60 MONTH WARRANTY THAT I HAD I WOULD JUST SUE THEM. AFTER HAVING MY HUSBAND PARENTS ARGUE WITH THEM BECAUSE THE STRESS DURING MY PREGNANCY WAS JUST TOO MUCH. THEY AGREED TO PAY FOR THE NEW ENGINE. SO FAR SO GOOD FOR ALMOST ANOTHER YEAR AND NOW THE CAR'S SERVICE ENGINE SOON KEEPS COMING ON THE CAR IS AT THE DEALER TODAY FOR THE 3RD TIME. THE CAR STALLS OUT. THE SERVICE MAN JUST LEFT A MESSAGE ON MY PHONE AND IS NOW SAYING THE REASON FOR THE PROBLEM IS THE SENSOR IS OFF?! WHATEVER .. I AM GOING TO GO PICK IT UP .. IF THE PROBLEM HAPPENS AGAIN I AM GOING TO HAVE MY BOSS WHO'S SPOUSE IS A LEMON LAW ATTORNEY GET INVOLVED. *JB

ON 10/04/07 I BOUGHT A LEMANS CHAMPION HR BL 195/690R15 88H TIRE FROM FIRESTONE COMPLETE AUTO CARE BUENA PARK. ON 11/1107 I NOTICE THE TIRE WAS FLAT I CHECK THE TIRE FOR ANY HOLE OR TEAR'S I COULD NOT FIND ANY. THE PRESSURE OF THE TIRE BEFORE I REFILLED IT WAS 19 PSI AFTER WARDS IT WAS AT 31.8 PSI. I CHECK THE TIRE PRESSURE 10 DAY LATER ON 11/21/07 IT WAS AT 25 PSI. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE STORE TO BE REPLACED. I TOLD THEM WHAT WAS GOING ON THEY RAN SOME TEST AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG SO THEY DID NOT REPLACE THE TIRE. I BELIEVE THERE IS A DEFECT IN THIS TIRE. *TR

REGARDING THE BRIDGESTONE TIRES ORIGINALLY INSTALLED ON MY CAR - THE CAR WAS PURCHASED ESSENTIALLY NEW OFF OF THE LOT IN 2005 (300 MILES). IT HAS THE ORIGINAL TIRES - BRIDGESTONE P195/60/R15. IT NOW HAS ABOUT 2000 MILES ON THE CAR. THE LEFT FRONT TIRE BLEW OUT WHILE DRIVING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE TREAD AREA HAD APPARENTLY SEPARATED FROM THE SIDEWALL - A SPLIT ABOUT AN INCH LONG. THERE IS ALMOST 1/2" OF TREAD ON THE TIRE, AND THEY APPEARED FINE UNTIL THIS APPARENT SEPARATION OF TREAD AND SIDEWALL, BUT THE TIRE COULD NOT BE REPAIRED AND I HAD TO BUY A NEW ONE. *JB
