| Description of the problem | After having ipdm module replaced (campaign number 10v517000), the ses light showed bad catalytic converters within a few thousand miles. The ipdm module failed before being replaced and it caused raw fuel to be dumped on the catalytic converters which caused them to fail. I think nissan should be responsible for the cost of failed catalytic converters when their faulty part caused the damage. This is an expensive repair ($2,800). After looking at forums on the internet, i see many people having issues with the titan catalytic converters and having them fail before the vehicle reaches 100k miles. I filed a complaint with nissan and they would not help with the repair. They said the faulty ipdm would not cause cats to fail. |
