Description of the problem | I just called nissan. On june 8 18 i took my car to chandler nissan for pre purchase inspection. They said it had a recall for the transmission, checked it and said everything looked fine. I received a quote on the extended warranty while there. I later called and emailed to extend my warranty but kept getting the run around. Fast forward to this weekend, getting on the freeway no acceleration at all. Rpm just through the roof. Its done that a few times now, since the day i bought it (after inspection) it would lag to accelerate just not totally like it did now. I'm a girl and thought that was normal it just didn't pick up and go and whined a little. Todays miles = 61850. Called nissan, they will look into it and get back to me... The car had 57468 miles at the time of inspection and was under warranty. The other issue was about a month ago, before i hit 60k the side airbag alert went off. After restarting the car it disappeared. Took it to midway nissan and they said could be a faulty sensor or could be a defect in the airbag but its not covered under warranty. They quoted $1400 to fix that. I forgot to tell the nissan rep that when i called but i will do so when they call me back. Hoping they will be helpful. I will update as i get more info. |
