| Description of the problem | The engine control module went out. Nissan stated it would cost 1000. 00 for the part and 500. 00 labor. I have had so much trouble with this vehicle since i bought it in 2010. I started having trouble with the gas gauge 3 months after i bought it. It was burning oil and i had to pay 380. 00 to fix that. The tire sensor has been out for 1 year. Now this about the engine control module. This is not a good car. I feel i have been screwed and now i have to pay for a car that i can't afford to have fixed. |
