1995 Nissan Maxima experiencing oil leak. There was a pre-existing oil leak. The engine light had come on immediately after the vehicle was picked up. The dealer promised the consumer a new battery but they cleaned off the battery acid and said that is was new. After about three weeks a new battery was placed in after several no starts. The dealer stated the alternator was bad.

The oxygen sensor has failed several times, the earliest time the vehicle having only 28299 miles. Vehicle has experienced and exhaust leak. The transmission will not shift out of park. The vehicle would not start due to a blank spot on the starter. The vehicle experienced several electrical problems, the dome light would not work due to a power wire rivet that was loose and loosing contact. The dome light, the door lights, and the map light malfunctioned when the consumer tried to replace the bulb for the map light. The factory installed alarm would go off unless the keyless entry was used, the dash indicator lights for the trunk open and door ajar for the passenger side also would not work. The hydraulic hood supports failed, in order to check the engine or make any repairs the hood has to be propped open. Recently the consumer heard a clicking noise in the front end, the dealer stated that the cv boot was torn and that the clicking noise meant the axle was damaged, however, later the dealer stated the problem was only the strut mount but didn't know which one was causing the problem, so both of them needed to be replaced.
