“My auctuators door locks have failed numerous times. The passenger rear was replaced when the vehicle was still under warranty. In the last 6 months the front drivers side, and passenger side has failed. Nissan does not have a recall on these and should! My car only has 32,000 miles on it. There obviously is an issue that needs to be addressed with a recall.”

“This vehicle was purchased new without disclosure of any recalls. When I checked the vin a few months ago it showed as haveing 5 recalls, some of them major. When I checked recently it showed as having O unfixed recalls. The dealer never fixed the recalls and is running me around to even schedule. I didn’t think they could sell new cars with open recalls?”

“Right when the summer started to reach 100 degree weather, the air conditioner went out on my car. It jas stopped reading the outside air temperature.
