2009 Nissan GT-R problems

“1. MANY LEDS IN DASH CLUSTER HAVE GONE OUT WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE DRIVING AT NIGHT. 2. THERE IS A FAILURE OF THE AM/FM TUNER. BOTH ISSUES ARE KNOWN TO NISSAN BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX IN MY CAR STATING THAT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT AFFECTED WHICH IT MOST CERTAINLY IS: HTTP://WWW.2009GTR.COM/2012/01/NISSAN-EXTENDS-WARRANTY-ON-INSTRUMENT.HTML”

“THE INSTRUMENT GAUGE CLUSTER ON A 2009-2010 GTR HAS A COMMON PROBLEM WHERE THE LEDS BEHIND THE FUEL GAUGE END OF BURNING OUT. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND OFFERED A FACTORY EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM 3 YEARS / 36K MILES TO 6 YEARS / UNLIMITED MILES. EVEN SO, FOR OWNERS LIKE MYSELF WITH A LOW MILEAGE CAR THAT HAVE PASSED THE TIME PERIOD BUT HAVE A BROKEN CLUSTER. IT'S A COMMON AND KNOWN ISSUE AND DUE TO THIS TECHNICALITY NISSAN REFUSES TO REPLACE THE CLUSTER.”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN GT-R. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL SPILLED OUT FROM THE FILLER NECK WHILE REFUELING. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,300 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 10,900. UPDATED 02/22/12 *BF UPDATED 03/01/12”

“The contact owns a 2009 Nissan GT-R. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was a blinding glare coming from the windshield, compromising driver visibility. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 8,800.”

“I NOTED AN ERROR MESSAGE ON MY DASH REGARDING A FAILURE TO THE ABS.I WENT TO THE DEALER WHO PULLED A CODE "C1111" FOR A FAILED HYDRAULIC CONTROL ASSEMBLY; A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. MY CAR HAS ONLY 19K MILES, AND IS LIGHTLY DRIVEN. ONLINE RESEARCH ON GT-R BLOGS, AND ELSEWHERE REVEAL THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON EARLY GT-RS, AFFECTING A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF THEM AT LOW MILEAGE. I CONTACTED NISSAN'S GT-R REPORT LINE, AND THEY WERE OF NO HELP. I RECENTLY SAW A RECALL ON OTHER NISSAN PRODUCTS RELATED TO THEIR ABS SYSTEMS. ALTHOUGH THIS IS A SMALL NUMBER OF MANUFACTURED CARS, THIS IS AN IMPORTANT SAFETY DEVICE, AND I BELIEVE NEEDS TO BE SCRUTINIZED CAREFULLY. THANK YOU. [XXX] ' *PM”

“DURING A TRACK DAY MY FUEL EVAP CANISTER CAUGHT FIRE. THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER GT-R OWNERS THAT DO NOT EVEN TRACK THE CAR WITH NORMAL DRIVING, THAT HAVE DISPLAYED A FUEL STAIN IN THE PASSENGER FENDER LINER THAT IS SOAKED FROM FUEL FROM AN OVERWHELMED (?BADLY DESIGNED) CANISTER”
