Description of the problem | I purchased a 2019 nissan versa june of 2020 with only 9,000 miles on it from a licensed dealer. August of 2020, while driving at a speed between gear 4/5, all of my electric was lost(touch screen display, interior/dash lights) about 2 seconds later all lights returned. This occurred again in october of 2020. Same conditions. There were no other issues with the vehicle, no check engine lights, nothing. Then again in december of 2020, same issue. Since december, i noticed my vehicle hesitating more and more to turn the engine on when starting. First week of january 2021, my vehicle did not start. I waited a moment and tried again, it started. I took the vehicle into a nissan dealer who inspected the vehicle. They scanned my obd for codes - none to be found. Said the odb system was "monitoring" one of the systems' (bcm) but didn't have any codes stored. After requesting them to re-flash my bcm, they then responded that it was my tire pressure sensor that was being monitored. I have had a failed bcm before so the symptoms with the car are very consistent with a failing bcm. I paid $160 total for them to tell me the car is perfect. Obviously not because vehicles just don't loose power while driving at highway speeds. I have a 5 year old child who goes everywhere with me. If it is in fact the bcm and i get into an accident because it failed while driving high speeds - neither of us are likely to walk away uninjured. There are no after-market parts on the vehicle. No modifications. The vehicle gets detailed/cleaned/maintained regularly as needed to keep extended warranty valid. Doesn't make sense. I have a 360 dash cam arriving this weekend so the next time it "surges" power - i have proof. |
