| 1997 | VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD WIPER/WASHER:LINKAGES | MY NISSAN SENTRA RECENTLY NEEDED TO HAVE BOTH WINDSHIELD WIPER LINKAGES REPLACED DUE TO THE PROBLEM WITH WATER ENTERING AND RUSTING OUT THE BEARINGS. I NEW OF THE SAFETY RECALL BUT ALL THE DEALER DID WAS ADD A RIDICULOUS 10 CENT STRIP OF FOAM TO THE PANEL ABOVE THE FALLEN APART BEARINGS. BOTH ME AND MY STEPFATHER ARGUED WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND NISSAN MOTORS BUT THEY REFUSED TO REPLACE THE BEARINGS FREE OF CHARGE. MY STEPFATHER ENDED UP BUYING AND REPLACING THEM HIMSELF BUT IN THE MEANTIME I GOT A $50.00 TICKET BECAUSE DURING THIS DELAY MY INSPECTION STICKER RAN OUT AND I COULDN'T GET A NEW ONE UNTIL THE WIPERS WERE FIXED. *LA |
| 2006 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC | I HAD PURCHASED MY VEHICLE IN DECEMBER 2010. WHEN I HAD PURCHASED IT, IT SEEMED TO HAVE A BARRING PROBLEM, OR A BRAKE PROBLEM. IT KEPT SHAKING, AND MAKING A THUMP-SOUND. IT KEPT PULLING, WHEN I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES. ABOUT MARCH 2011, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, MY CAR WAS SHAKING SO MUCH, THAT I HAD TO PULL OVER. IT BLEW MY ENTIRE RIM AND TIRE OFF. I GOT A TOW TRUCK AND BROUGHT IT TO MY MECHANIC, HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW TIRE AND RIM. ABOUT A COUPLE MONTHS LATER, I NOTICED THE PULLING IN THE BRAKES AGAIN,IT WAS GETTING WORSE, SO I BROUGHT IT BACK TO MY MECHANIC, AND HE CHECKED OUT THE WHOLE CAR. HE NOTICED THAT THEIR WAS BRAKING FLUID LEAKING, AND THAT IT NEEDS NEW BRAKE PADS. I HAD MY CAR FOR 7 MONTHS, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I NEED NEW BRAKE PADS. HE SAID IT SHOULDN'T OF PASSED THE SAFETY. MY DAD AND HIS LAWYER LOOKED AT THE SAFETY AND E TESTED PAPERS, AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS FORGED, SO IT PROBABLY WASN'T A PROPER SAFETY. I AM PLANNING TO GIVE THE CAR BACK, AS IT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE A PROPER SAFETY. *KB |
