2013 Nissan Sentra electrical complaints

Filed May 4, 2014 · Airbags, Electrical · 30 miles · HI

I bought my nissan sentra sv on november 18, 2013 and the next day I had to take it back to the dealer to check the light indicating low pressure in tire(s). The second time I took the car into nissan dealership was on december 18, 2014 when my vehicle air bag light kept disengaging when my husband was seated on the passenger seat. [xxx], who I told what was happening with the air bag light turning off, had the auto tech look at and after the vehicle was done being checked I was told that everything was okay. [xxx] showed me that it was working properly, but when he sat in the passenger seat and the light went off and he tried several time to engage it didn't work, so he went back to talk to the tech and came back and told me that it's okay and to monitor it. Now, I receive a recall notice letting me know about the same problem that I took my car in several months ago and told nothing was wrong with it. Seriously, what happened if I was in an accident and the airbag didn't work properly and some one got hurt or worst killed. A life can't be replaced, but a car can. I hope that when I take the car into the dealership I don't get the run around and being told nothing is wrong.

Engine stalled on the interstate while traveling at 70 MPH. Stalled again about an hour later at 30 MPH. Went to dealership, they were unable to reproduce the issue. Others have had similar experiences, but nissan will not recognize engine stalls as a current issue with 2013 nissan sentras. However nissan did send me one months car note for the vehicle being in the shop several times for this problem. According to nissan there is a suggested repair involving the accelerator on these vehicles, but the company will not authorize the repair unless their technicians can reproduce the issue. After several calls to nissan they simply say that they understand the problem I am having but the company will not authorize the repair at this time. They more or less left it to me to continue with my own research about a potential recall involving engine stalls.

Update on what herb gordon nissan found on the brake issue - the first time they were instructed to lube the brake cylinders as per a service bulletin. The noise was gone for a few days but started to occur again. The second time they changed the brake cylinders all together which has seemed to fix the grinding/crackling noise. The AC stopped working and was blowing hot air - they had to replace the entire AC compressor. So many issues in less than 5000 miles of driving.
