problem #1

Feb 152007

Sentra 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 22,000 miles
The contact owns a 2005 Nissan Sentra. The contact noticed that the fuel pump would suck the fuel back into the tank instead of maintaining pressure in the fuel injectors. He would attempt to start the vehicle, but was unsuccessful because gasoline was in the tank. The issue occurred many times in the previous year. The contact had to replace two set of spark plugs. The dealer charged $100 for a diagnosis and then informed him of the fuel pump issue. The manufacturer did not assist. The contact stated that his extended warranty did not cover the failure and he would have to pay out of pocket for a completely new fuel pump. The current mileage was approximately 43,000 and failure mileage was 21,582. Updated 12/22/08. Updated 12/23/08.
