THE EGR TEMPERATURE SENSOR HAS FAILED. THE MFG. HAS PLACED THIS COMPONENT IN A LOCATION THAT IS ACCESSIBLE ONLY AFTER REMOVAL OF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. THE ACTUAL SENSOR IS AVAILABLE FOR $70. ACCORDING TO THE NISSAN DEALER, REPLACEMENT OF THIS COMPONENT WILL COST MORE THAN $900. THIS IS SUCH A POOR VEHICLE SYSTEM DESIGN THAT CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BEAR THE RIDICULOUS COST OF THIS REPAIR.

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
