| Description of the problem | Vehicle check engine light came on shortly after regular service at the dealer. Returned to have it checked, was told that the issue was caused by a faulty oil pressure sensor. The location of the sensor requires removal of the intake manifold, fuel injector's and rails, etc., resulting in approx. 4 hours of labor at the dealer. The dealer advised that they have "seen thousands of these sensor's fail on the 3. 6 engine". There is a tsb; 18-034-14 rev. A, documenting complaints. Because the vehicle has 41k miles on it, the dealer will not cover the cost of the repair. I called the manufacturer to complain about the fact there apparently is no recall on this defective item. I was told that i could do nothing, except for put in a complaint about the dealer. I told them that the dealer is not the problem, it is the manufacturer who refuses to issue a recall despite the fact there are numerous instances of this part failing across their product line. Was told to complain to nhtsa. |
