Coolant mixed into transmission causing electronic module to burn out. This caused vehicle to stop operating correctly and would not allow engine to restart.
I received a warranty notification letter around 2011 , stating that Nissan was providing the highest levels of product quality and customer satisfaction. This letter stated that Nissan was extending the warranty for the fuel sending sensor that can malfunction and incorrectly give a wrong reading on the fuel level. They where extending the new vehicle limited warranty for 36 months/ 36,000 miles to 72 months 72,000 miles. So I put the sticker and letter in my warranty booklet. I called the Nissan dealership and gave them my VIN number and they stated that my vehicle was not part of the "campaign recall" and you dont need to do anything further. So it is now 2014, 3 years later and what happens . . . . . . . . The fuel sending sensor is broken, I spoke to the dealer again on 2-17-2014, and again they stated to me that my VIN number was not part of the campaign recall and when I showed them my letter , they stated to me that yes it was under warranty at the time of receiving the letter. . . . . But they said to me in 2011 that no need if you dont have a problem your vehicle doesnt need to have this replaced . . . . . . . So I got told wrong twice once when you get the letter unless it is broken then they wont fix it. . . . . And now that it is broken my VIN number is not part of the "campaign recall" sad that Nissan does this . . . . . They should honor this recall for all VIN numbers that show this problem. I bought this vehicle new from the dealer and will not give out 600. 00 for them to replace an 80. 00 part. I wish more people complain so this goes to recall. Without fixing this you cannot pass inspection for your car. At the time of receiving the letter they should have fixed it but it wasnt broken. 3 years later they wont fix it my VIN is not part of campaign recall?????.

The vehicle is a 2008 Nissan Xterra. It was February 15,2010 and I was letting my wife out of the car near the store, the car was in drive and my foot was on the break. Suddenly before my wife was totally out of the car it lunged forward and the accelerator on its own started revving up and the car was moving forward. I put the car in neutral and it was revving at a very high rpm. I put the car in park and it shut it off. I took the car to the dealer but they could not find any problem. They said there were no recalls or memo's about the problem. My son said something like that happened to him once before buy not as serious. It was the first time it ever happened to me.
