 Description of the problemI have a 2007 nissan pathfinder. I was driving it to work and all of a sudden i just felt my car`s engine is having a heart attack, - a myocardial infraction. Then it started choking minute by minute. By then i knew my silver 2007 pathfinder is turning blue. Gotta call the code blue team. I am a nurse so this is the only way i can explain what i think what's going on rather than mechanically. The car is 7 years old, always used premium gas, use synthetic oil on it, always took the car to the dealership for diagnostic check up and maintenance, only 63,000 less mileage, i'm the sole driver. Got it towed to the dealership, got diagnosed by mechanic and told me that the timing chain system is screwed, and eventually damaged the pistons, then there was some leakage.... They asked me $4,100 for the repair. This expensive repair cost is very unexpected and not my priority right now cause i have other more important to spent it with. And reading "nissan north america named in class action lawsuit alleging failure to disclose defect in timing chain systems which results in premature failure". Nissan never issued a recall and now the consumers has to pay costly repairs. I paid $4,480 something.

    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.
