Description of the problem | On february 9, 2015 i was driving my nissan sentra and everything stopped (all power) i thought it was the battery so i got a jump it started and i drove to the store. When i stopped at a store the car was dead again. After some investigation i realized the battery terminal on the positive side was not staying on the battery so therefore the power in the car could stop at any time. I researched online to see if this problem has happen with any other nissan sentras, and found it had so i called nissan corporate office. I was told that the recalls for the car i have did not include the battery terminal. My concern is that if this exact problem was an issue reported and recalls done for other sentras is it possible the same could be for my car. I think this very dangerous and nissan should repair the car. |
