The vehicle stalls after running for a few minutes at fir now stalls when stopped at red light and while making a turn and while driving.
Check engine light is on, when i accelerated on the gas it the car started to jerk and it wouldn't let me get past 40 mph. after i stopped at a stop sign, the car would not move faster than 20 mph before it started jerking. i called a mcclarty nissan dealership in north little rock and they told me that the recall listed on this website did not affect my car even though your website does when i look it up by the vin like they did.
We put our vin into the recall database and it did not come back as being one of the cars affected. however, we have experienced what is described in the recall: engine stalling and having to be turned off and restarted; no power to engine when stepping on gas while in drive. it has been okay on the highway, but will often cut out when driving in city, especially when starting back from a start or rolling start. happens occasionally with no predictability other than has never happened on the highway.
About a couple months after i purchased the car a service engine soon light started to turn on and off, so i took it to get checked at auto zone. they then told me that it was a sensor or spark plug. the light went off but then about a year later i was driving and a vdc off light along with a traction light came on while i was driving, causing the car to jerk so much that i have to pull over and shut it off for a few minutes. when i turn the car back on it gone. i started to search for similar issues to see if any other nissan like mine were having this problem, and found that this is a common issue . i checked to see if there was any recalls which there isn't but one of the recalls you have listed, has similar problems to which im having. it's now to the point when i put my car in reverse for some reason it shuts off or if i brake to much the issue worsens. please help!
The vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly hesitates loses power and stalls. i have been told by two independent nissan repair shops that the ecm needs to be reprogrammed and updated to the newest version. because other components that are tied in together is causing the check engine light to come on. ap0101 diagnostic code states that the maf sensor is bad. the maf sensor has been replaced, the gas tank cap has been replaced with an oem, etc. i believe that the ecm is not communicating correctly with the maf sensor signal and is what is causing the engine to stall unexpectedly. this has happened three time and i can have an accident due to the engine sttalling without any warning. i can be severely rear ended in the freeway.
Flapping sound on driver side when speeding. my vehicle makes a flapping sound when i speed more than 65 mph. i can hear it on the driver side only. it causes the steering wheel to vibrate. i had the shocks replaced and it still makes the sound.
We driving out of state and when the climb started the car started to lose power and was driving only 25 miles an hour. we arrived at a dealer of nissan and the diagnosis was that the transmission oil is heated and needed to install an additional cooling kit ...my car has 112600 miles and that happens on may,26,2016.
When driving the car sometimes the vdc light comes on and the car will not go. it acts like it will not take the gas and it does not want to go. we have tried to cut the switch off but could not. we had to cut the car off and let it set for a few minutes and then start it back up and it would be fine. it has happened a couple of times and its a really scary feeling when your driving down the road and it happens. i would like to know what can be done about this and what the problem might be
When driving from a stop position the car will appear to hesitate upon acceleration. some hesitations are longer than others. it's scary as if the car doesn't want to move but as of yet will then go.not sure of the problem components related to the hesitation. it is intermittent as this time and new to my possession of the car. i fear the car will at some point not go when pressing on the gas. scary.
I purchased the car march 14, 2011 and the vehicle has had issues with making noises and vibrating. i return the vehicle the following week and dealership could find no problems, but referred to nissan service. on july 29, 2011, my mother moved my car out of a fire line at approximately 20-25 mph. the gas pedal went way to the floor and she attempted to depress the brakes. at that time the pedal traveled more than 3/4 to the floor almost instantly. she did lose control of the vehicle and crushed into a tree to stop the car. she never regained the use of the brakes. i did go to the towng company and took picture where the gas pedal is still in 3/4 inch from the floor. dj
I have the intelligent key system with this car. i was told when i purchased this car that in order to start the car, my foot must be on the brake. you can put the car in auxiliary mode with the foot off the brake but in order to start the car the foot must be on the brake. i discovered that i was able to start my car with my foot off the brake. i took the car in for service to dealer that i purchased the car from. i was subsequently told that with my model car i could start the car with my foot off the brake. i called nissan since i was getting conflicting information and they informed me that in fact i should not be able to start my car in this manner. they created a file regarding this problem, file #7139963, then i was told that i should take my car in to another dealer and have them look at this problem. i'm not sure if other sentra owners are having this problem also or whether or not this could become a safety issue (which i would think it could be, especially if a young child was somehow able to start the car and put it in gear) but i figured this should be on record since all nissan suggested was that i take it to another dealer.
The vehicle has had issues with abs actuator making noises and vibrating. dealership could find no problems, but referred to nissan service bulletin. on february 2, 2011, i was traveling at approximately 20-25 mph. as i approached a red light i attempted to depress my brakes. at that time the pedal traveled more than 3/4 of the way to the floor almost instantly. there was a loud metallic clanking and grinding sound and a very strong vibration coming from under brake pedal. i almost lost control of my vehicle as it pulled to the left and almost traveled into the oncoming lane. after 2-3 seconds i regained the use of my brakes. *ln
