Description of the problem	My car would not start. Apparently there was a recall on this problem - only if the car was affected - and it happened to my car after the warranty on the recall expired. I am the 2nd owner and was never notified of the recall despite the fact i purchased the car from a dealer. The nissan customer service refused to even pay for the part - which i could not purchase or get repaired elsewhere. It was very expensive. I have owned many other cars and have had car manufacturers stand by their products and right was was wrong. Not in this case. Nissan should have at least paid for the part as there was no other place to make the repair. I spoke to several people and went as far up the ladder as possible and was finally told they would not assist with the cost in any way. This is not an acceptable way to run a business and stand by a product. I had a 12 year old car from lexus replace a cracked dashboard for free! The car is used by my son, a college student, who needs it for transportation and safety while away at school. I was very upset at the way i was treated and how my complaints were not addressed in any way.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
