Nissan transmission last just five years before you needs to replace them I was driving on the highway going around 65 to 75 MPH when my car started to slow down. I pulled over to the nearby exit into a gas station turn off my car and add more gas and oil into the car. When I turn back on my car I notice that my check engine light was on, got a diagnostics the check engine light code was po840 and po845 codes mean transmission fluid pressure sensor/ switch. Took my car to nissan dealer repair shop they said that my transmission was going out and I need to replace my transmission. Got in contact with nissan consumer affairs they refuse to fix my problem. My nissan is a five year old car with 133000 mile this is the first time I had any major problem with my car. I cannot afford to repair my transmission that cost $ 3600.00 dollars just for the parts not the lobar. I need to know what I can do to get nissan to fix my car for free. I also like to know if anyone else had this problem and what did you do to solve your issues.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 nissan sentra. The contact stated that the power steering and engine warning lights would illuminate intermittently, followed by a loss of power steering assist. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the dealer advised that since the vehicle was no longer under warranty and the power steering and engine lights did not remain illuminated consistently, there was nothing that could be done to repair the vehicle. The manufacturer would not repair the failure unless the power steering light and engine light remained illuminated. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 42,000 and the current mileage was 44,000.

The check engine light came on. The dealer told me it was from defective gasoline. When the light immediately came back on, the dealer told me I needed a new engine and denied warranty repairs because I had changed my own oil and could not show receipts from a commercial oil change.

I drove the 2007 nissan sentra for about 7 months with almost no issues except the "check engine light was on." I took it to the deal for the scheduled maintenances and had regular oil changes, and used premium gas. While driving on the highway going about 60mph, the car stalled and caught on fire. I was not able to pull over. It was a very traumatic experience. Recently I have received a recall notice concerning the brake fluid leak. I know that fluid and electricity do not mix, so it may very well have been the cause of the fire.
