 On two occasions while making right turns, the engine failed to operate. the first occurance, the engine restarted and appeard to operate normaly. the second occurance, the engine failed to restart and the vehicle was towed to nissan maintenance where it was determined that the battery was leaking acid, which was ingested in to the air intake, destroying the air filter and causing severe contamination of the spark plugs and fuel injector system, as well as corrosive damage to the framing. had this engine failed on the freeway, it would have jeapordized the lives of the occupants. action is being addressed with the battery manufacturer, but this report is implemented to address the poor design of the vehicle which placed the battery above the air intake, without provisions for containment in the event of such an acid leak.

 The car is 3yrs old and the exhaust pipe has detached underneath the car approximately by the rear axel and is now resting on top of the rear wheel base. the flange which connects the front exhaust to the rear exhaust assembly has completely corroded and disintegrated.

 The car ran fine, until one day the electrical system seemed to die (all the lights on the dash illuminated) and the car seemed to lock itself up. the power steering stopped functioning and made it hard to drive. after pulling over to restart it, it would not. at first i thought it may be the battery, but when i took it to the dealer they were unable to figure out the exact problem. it's been nearly a week since the problem started and no resolution yet. i chose to report this because when the car began to malfunction it became very unsafe to operate. since i was in a fairly residential area it wasn't hard for me to pull over and get help, but had i been on a major roadway i could see this problem being potentially disasterous. i also feel that this problem needs to be more closely looked at since the technicians were not able to accurately identify the problem because it had yet to be seen until i brought my car in.

 My 2007 nissan sentra caught on fire while i was driving on the higway. no warning lights came on, no noise, just stalled and i was not able to pull off the road. car was a total loss. i had taken it in to the dealer for 2 recalls (brake master cylinder and airbags) last year, but was told my car cleared both.

 I took my car in to be service and they did not service it. so i stop payment on the check and they file a complaint against me with the state attorney office they told me it would take about two hours to service my car and they did not service it at all they had charge me over three hundreds dollars. the case # 27671367. i won my case. now i received this recall notice from you all and i really appreciate it. but i have lost faith in there service, but i am going to take it back to the bill seidles nissan the dealer where i got it from. i let them know how disappointed i was with there service. i am doubtful about there service. thank you all so much for looking out for all of us who drive. *tr
