Excess engine oil consumption recall #06V223000 - I took my vehicle to an automotive repair shop because my vehicle ran out of oil on 3 separate occasions and the low oil light did not come on to let me know that there was an issue. During each occasion, I pulled over because I heard a loud "knocking' sound coming from the engine as I was driving and became worried. Each time the issue occurred before the 3 month/3,000 mile scheduled oil change. The mechanic located an external oil leak on the 1st occasion and repaired the external leak. My car was inspected to see if there were any other external oil leaks when the problem of running out of oil continued to occur; however, no additional external leaks were located. My mechanic recommended that I contact Nissan regarding the excessive oil consumption. I was advised by a Nissan representative that they have already fixed the excessive oil consumption issue for my VIN and that they would not inspect or repair that issue again without me paying a local Nissan dealer.

Was leaving store and when pulled out onto road, I was involved in a crash! left the scene and then was taken by private vehicle to local emergency room and from there, airlifted with brain injury! was almost across the road and vehicle stalled and wouldn't accelerate and stalled and caused a horrible accident. The vehicle that hit me got me in passenger rear as he was traveling up highway and threw me and went air borne and knocked a telephone pole in half and done damage to front as well. Air bags didn't deflate at all. I am making attempt to make Nissan aware and opportunity to make right. I have researched what could cause this and recalls are effective while I'm going to state unknown to cause, as there are several reasons on forum as to what could cause this. Takata recall for air bags but unknown on other....updated 07/11/17
