TRANSMISSION ON MY 2010 NISSAN GTR FAILED AT 40,138 MILES. NISSAN WANTS ME TO PAY 18,000 TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. STATED THAT THEY DON'T REPAIR THEM. CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE OR FORWARD GEARS AFTER NORMAL DRIVING. NISSAN CHARGED ME 1034.00 DOLLARS TO LOOK TO SEE IF THEY COULD IDENTIFY THE ISSUE. NO DETAILS INCLUDED IN THE ACCESSMENT BUT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACE AND IT WOULD COST OFER $18000.00 TO REPLACE. THE TRANSMISSION ONLY HAS 40,138 MILES ON IT AND WAS HAVING ISSUES AT 37000 MILES.

THE LED IN MY GTR CLUSTER ARE NO LONGER WORKING, THEY ARE DEFECTIVE AND ARE NOT REPLACEABLE = NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THE CLUSTER DRIVING AT NIGHT TIME CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS. SAFETY IS EVERYTHING, NISSAN NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND THE SAFETY BEHIND NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THE CLUSTER WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE REPAIR SHOULD BE SIMPLE AND REPAIRABLE BUT IN THIS CASE IT IS NOT.

AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS BLINKING. AFTER DEALER DIAGNOSED, DETERMINED FAULTY SENSOR B1018 PASSENGER OCCUPANT SENSOR UNIT FAIL. I HAVE NOT CHANGED A SEAT OR ALTERED ANYTHING TO THE SYSTEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL SINCE IT INVOLVES THE AIRBAG SYSTEM AND MANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME ISSUE.

Is 11 complaints a lot? They were filed between 2010 and 2021, roughly 1 a year, which is fewer than the typical model in this dataset. We do not have sales figures for this model, so treat this as a rough volume, not a rate per car on the road. Popular, high-volume models naturally collect more complaints over time.
