Hello, I am new to this site. So you're saying that if I have pre-cat failure on 05 sentra se-r, I can get a free engine replacement?

I have a 2002 spec-v that has just today (6/16/09) ruined it's second engine due to oil consumption.I purchased the car new in 2002 and with in the first 20k miles had to replace the engine. I completely footed the bill, as the reason given for the failure was lack of oil. I assumed the shop that did the oil change did not put oil back in, I was pissed, but chalked it up to lesson learned. Now, at 140k miles the engine has failed this morning. It has been burning a quart a week for sometime, and apparently just gone beyond that.. I see some comments in the thread about "Nissan owing a new engine" and "02 - 03 can get new engine for pre-cat failure", but after contacting my dealer and Nissan North America I'm told there are no recalls for my vehicle in regards to the engine, other than reprogramming the ECU. And, I'm told that only applies to the ECU, not any repairs / replacement of the engine. So, I'm very curious, where do I find the suggested recall information. What course of action have you guys had luck with? Also, the first engine replacement cost 3.5k, this was in 2k3 or 2k4.

I've heard alot of stories pertaining to engine problems in the 02 SE-R. I think its a manufacturer issue and some thing needs to be done. They have a recall on the Altima 2.5 engines. Thats the same engine in the Se-R

I have a 04 sentra spec v, i been having problems with it for a while i would be driving and the car would just die on me, before it dies it would jurk then it would just die and i could usually just start it up again. The last time it did that to me it wouldnt start at all, I have gone to the dealership and they just say its the throtle sensor, it has been replace but the problem still exist. Has this happen to anyone else also and if it has how did you fix it, or if there are any suggestions it would be appreciated.

i have an 04 spec v and i would be driving and it would randomly cut off then back on and if i drove it for about 30 mins then turned it off an tried to start it again it wouldnt start and it was the crankshaft sensor . hope that helps.ps its under the back side and hard to get to if you have to change it.you have to kinda feel around for it .

There's nothing like the possibility of the brakes going out in your car to get people's attention.

I just got an 08 se-r. Are they under a recall for the motor, or the brakes only? I just want to know what I need to do.
