| Electronic Stability Control problems |
My 2010 Nissan Sentra (was stationary each time) failed to start so I replaced the battery and it began starting for a week. Then one morning it failed to start again. I cleaned both the cable ends on the battery and each post. I was able to get the car started and lasted a few days and the same problems arises again. This time the engine would turn over but would not start. Put a code machine on the car and received a code for camshaft position sensor or the crankshaft position sensor. I have discovered there was a recall for the positive battery cable that would cause the car to not get good connection and create failure for the engine control module. I entered my VIN number but the NHTSA system is not responding. Could please respond to see if my vehicle is on the recall list?.
While I was driving the dash lights started flickering and it started making a humming noise then the steering wheel locked up to the right and it did this twice and I almost crashed.
After 4 days of not driving my car, my car will not start. This happens every time I don't drive my car, (the four days). I have to jump start my car. I have bought new batteries. I have had my alternator checked.
I was driving the car and it turn off on me while 40 miles an hour.
Positive battery terminal caused irregular voltage and burn the engine control module ecm to burn/die causing car to stop while on movement.
I just purchased my 2010 Nissan Sentra used from reputable car dealership 3/4/16. On 7/10/2016 my battery died and was completely dead and could not be recharged. On 10/4/16 I was waiting on my daughter to get off of work. The car starting trying to die out. I turned off vehicle checked all my lubricants and radiator everything was fine. She got in was in process of backing up car electrical systems(dash lights, head lights,and all the other warning lights) started flashing car felt like it was hesitating and died out. Could not get to crank. Used jumper box to check battery battery was not completely dead. We pushed vehicle back into parking place and let battery charge. Car would start but not catch. Few days later battery completely dead. Read about recall associated with my vehicle. Loose positive cable terminal causing drop in voltage essentially damaging ecm. Vehicle towed to Nissan dealership. Diagnosis is ecm is dead and needs replaced, positive terminal cable needs replaced. Cost of repair $1250. 00 and now I am having to pay to fix repairs. Per Nissan dealership and Nissan corporate my VIN number was not part of the recall and therefore will not be covered by them. Definitely not right especially when diagnosis is exactly what recall of 33,803 vehicles was for.
After driving for about 10 minutes, the transmission did not want to come out of low gear. At 35 mph, I was at about 6,000rpms in drive. I confirmed the overdrive off button is not engaged, nor is it in "l", and the emergency brake is off. When it has been cooled off for about 3+ hours, it will drive fairly normal for about 10-12 minutes until warmed up, then it all starts again. Even once it is cooled off, there is a slight drag on power and it will begin to have erratic shifting (similar to a regular automatic transmission slipping) after a few minutes on take off it feels like the parking brake is on, but it is not. The service engine soon light comes on, the vdc control light comes on, and another light that is above the vdc light comes on. Codes p0720 and p1778 were found by a local non-Nissan dealer who checked them as a courtesy for me. Have discovered that Nissan has extended the cvt transmission warranty on certain Nissans up to 10 yrs or 120,000 miles, my Sentra is included among others. . Read more...
