this is why i hate nissan as a company

No offense but this is the 8th dealer you have had a problem with? Maybe its you or how you treat them that they dont wanna help.

Find a new dealer and be nice and explain all your issues and hopefully they will help figure it all out.

The fuel gauge and tranny noise I think almost every has, multiple threads on here about the clunk and noises and fuel gauge not always lighting up or dropping.

Remove the tow hook and go somewhere new and see what happens.

I understand the gauge is shady at best, but the problem is definitely getting worse. I have 1 year left under warranty, I just wanted to have the part replaced before it fails completely

I got my Fuel Sending Unit replaced after two trips to the dealer. But is was a royal pain.

yeah you basically have to suck them off to get anything done, imagine trying to get them to solve the fuel starve

Cmike2780 · 06-27-2012, 04:27 PM

I didn't even see the part about this being your 8th dealership. I'm hoping NNA has at least been contacted once? It does sound a bit hard to believe that no one among 8 dealerships would help you solve a problem that's covered under warranty.

..also, are the "new" problems really problems?

#1: You already know personally that the tranny fluid is clean. Did they blame the noise on this? If they were just trying to state a "fact", it doesn't really affect you. You could always change it again if it makes you feel better.

#2: You know for a fact it's not a problem, so it's not really a problem unless they claim this is where the tranny noise is coming from which is BS. Remove it and go back in and prove them wrong or show them it's impossible.

#3: Rent/borrow/buy a scanner and see if there's any codes. I find it hard to believe 1,000 stored codes wouldn't throw a CEL.

Well 8 dealerships seems to be a ton of places to still get no help, it might not be you at all and if your mercedes and toyota dealer dont hassle you then perhaps you have had a string of bad luck with Nissan dealers...

Still, remove the tow hook and go to a new dealer and see what happens.

cossie1600 · 06-27-2012, 04:38 PM

I am only at my second dealer with 370, 6 with 350.

I don't have a cell, the tec 2 can read other codes that we cant

I see... and I think you mean consult-3. If the code was something major, it would have thrown a CEL or would show a pending code on an OBD scanner, so I would really worry too much about it. I don't know enough about what the consult-3 can tell you, to be honest.

kenchan · 06-27-2012, 05:17 PM

maybe uprev can clear it or read it or something?

not sure either. i only read the DTC's that's scannable.

You are right I am sorry. TEC II is Toyota i believe. Anyhow there are tons of information they can get from those computers. Anyway I am over it, time for a new dealer when winter hits. I am not losing any summer driving time to have them fool around with it when they have no intentions to fix anything.

Tech2 is GM

close enough, i knew it was one of the brand i had before....

buddyZ · 06-27-2012, 09:38 PM

After my 3 year lease is up, i dont think i will continue business with Nissan. The overall experiences have been Terrible, 2005 Frontier had so many recalls and cheap stuff happen to it i have stories for days. The whole process with dealerships raise my blood pressure to the point where i actually dont care if i go to jail just to knock one of the sleezbags out.. Its really scary how much i rage dealing with Nissan.
