This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
2001 Nissan Pathfinder with gas leak. Consumer states fuel leaked from the vehicle making it unsafe to drive. The dealer did not have all the parts to repair the problem. The consumer discovered there was a recall for the exact same problem they were experiencing. The engine light was on. The dealer replaced the 02 sensor. (recall 07V435000)
Well, I don't know where to start. I purchased this vehicle brand new, my check engine light keep coming on I took this vehicle at least 5 to 6 times to the dealer they couldn't find what was wrong with it. God, I a nurse I need to get to my patient as we speak this car is at the dealership they told me they cant find nothing wrong with it. Isn't there a problem with the catalytic converter with this vehicle.
The contact stated when attempting to pass state inspection the vehicle failed emissions testing due to a faulty rear oxygen sensor. The inspection site performed a diagnostic test that produced this code. There was a technical service bulletin NHTSA item 628220 concerning this problem. The vehicle has not been seen by a dealer or repair shop. There were no warning indicators to let the contact know there was a problem with the emissions system. Updated 03/09/06.
My 2001 Pathfinder had only 37,800 miles when the service engine light came on. My dealership says it needs both rear oxygen sensors at a cost of over $500. It was my understanding that oxygen sensors weren't supposed to need replacing until 90,000 miles. There is a service bulletin (02006) regarding this issue. I feel that at least of portion of this cost should be covered under warranty. How do I check on this?
