Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: At 57,000 miles a code was pulled from ecup0740 diag. poss electrical problem (unknown) could not find problem, $152 fee. returned vehicle several times for engine rpm rev. vehicle wants to move when at a complete stop. reset and reprogrammed computer (ecu). i wore breaks out several times, and the e-brake.($1,000) finally the intermittent problem was found repaired (2) o2 sensors $610.00. same problem occurs 2 months later. found bad ecu, core return iacv-aac valve. ($914.00). again 3 months later vehicle performing the same way, found and replaced another sensor oh this one was under warranty per nissan. at this time the vehicle is performing the same way and needs to go back to the dealer for more repairs. i spoke to the service manager at hart nissan, and he recommends that when you replace one sensor all six should be replaced. i know two people who own the 2000 maxima and they also had their sensors repaired. i have been a nissan owner for about 10 years and owned six vehicles myself/wife. i am in the market for another vehicle and i will never purchase other nissan ever again. this sensor problem needs to be addressed by nissan. don't bother calling nissan customer service because, a-they won't get back to you right away, b-they won't do anything for you besides say your vehicle is out of warranty and what do you want use to do you have 50,000-90,000 miles on your vehicle, things do go wrong. call the federal trade commission and loge a complaint, call your state m/v department dealers and repairs and have them investigate this sensor problem, and contact your states attorney office. (nissan is making hundreds of thousands of dollars of this sensor problem that should be a recall). *nm
