Nissan Repair

Highest-Rated Nissan Repair Shop

Creech Import is Raleigh’s most trusted Nissan repair service. Our experts have seen countless Nissan vehicles, and we can handle the wide variety of problems the various Nissan models may face. Nissan makes cars, SUVs, minivans, and trucks. Each model has unique needs, and our technicians are familiar with all of the situations a Nissan vehicle may see itself in.

The Nissan Altima is a mid-sized car. The most common issue with the Altima is engine problems. The 2002 model is especially susceptible to engine failures. However, these cars may also have problems with the exhaust system, suspension, cooling systems, and electronics. The experts at Creech Import know the ins and outs of the Nissan Altima and can identify and resolve any issues your car may be experiencing.

Another popular car made by Nissan is the Maxima. Transmission problems are by far the most common issue we see at Creech Import. However, the strain placed on the body of cars in Raleigh is immense. The sand, gravel, and chemicals placed on icy roadways in North Carolina can lead to rust and other damages to the bodies of all kinds of cars – and the Maxima is no exception.

Nissan Repair
Problem:

Engine misfiring, check engine light on.

Solution:

Replace ignition coils

Models affected:

Infiniti I30 3.0 liter. 1999 thru 2001
Nissan Maxima 2008 thru 2011 3.0 liter.

Diagnostic:

Verify correct factory or NGK spark plugs are installed. Check power, ground, and connections at coils. Check wiring harness under the hood by passenger strut tower for wire breakages per service bulletin NTB01-076B. Replace ignition coils if needed. Our experts understand these unique stresses and can repair any problems you are having with your Maxima.

Nissan Pathfinder

Just like the Maxima, the Nissan Pathfinder is susceptible to transmission failures. The size of this SUV places a unique load on the vehicle’s transmission, which can lead to premature wear and failure. This appears to be a very serious issue with the 2005 model, especially. In addition, we commonly see cooling and fuel delivery problems in the Pathfinder.


The Sentra is another mid-sized car made by Nissan. Our mechanics can handle jobs for all varieties of the Sentra, including the S, SR, and SL makes. These vehicles may experience engine problems as they age. The 2005 model is especially prone to problems within the engine. Our technicians also see problems with clutches, brakes, and exterior accessories.

Problem:

If system power is lost due to dead battery or battery disconnected, it may be necessary to
reset the limit switch.

Models Affected:

Solution:

To reset the limit switch, raise the glass to the top position. Then press and hold the reset switch that is on the power window motor (door panel removed) and lower the glass to the bottom position (don’t use the automatic portion of the power window switch). Release the reset switch and verify that the reset switch returned to its original position. Then raise the glass to the top position and verify window operation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Nissan Repair and Maintenance

Nissan models are generally known for their solid reliability, particularly when they’re well-maintained. Regular maintenance—including timely oil changes, fluid checks, and filter replacements—plays a huge role in preventing common issues. At Creech Import Repair, our ASE-Certified technicians follow Nissan’s guidelines to keep your car running smoothly and extend its lifespan.

Most Nissans benefit from routine maintenance every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. This includes basic tasks like oil and filter changes, as well as checking fluids, brakes, and tires. More comprehensive services—like spark plug replacements, coolant flushes, and transmission fluid changes—occur at longer intervals. Consult your owner’s manual or let our experts at Creech Import Repair guide you based on your specific model and driving conditions.

Nissans typically fall into a moderate range of maintenance and repair costs, making them generally more affordable than many European brands. By staying current with factory-recommended maintenance, you can reduce the risk of major repairs down the line. Our team at Creech Import Repair focuses on preventive care and transparent pricing to help you manage costs effectively.

No. As long as all maintenance and repairs follow Nissan’s guidelines and use the proper parts, your warranty remains intact. Creech Import Repair’s technicians have the expertise, tools, and access to quality parts needed to maintain your warranty, often at more competitive rates than a dealership.

With proper, consistent care, many Nissan models can surpass 150,000 to even 200,000 miles or more. Keeping up with recommended oil changes, fluid services, brake inspections, and other routine maintenance helps ensure your Nissan remains reliable for years to come.

While Nissan vehicles are generally dependable, some models have experienced issues with CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) performance, electrical sensor glitches, or premature brake wear. Regular inspections and prompt attention to any warning signs—like unusual noises, dashboard lights, or shifting irregularities—help catch these issues early, preventing more costly repairs later.

Most Nissan parts are readily available and reasonably priced, especially compared to certain luxury or specialty brands. Creech Import Repair has access to a wide range of OEM and high-quality aftermarket parts to ensure your Nissan gets the correct, long-lasting components it needs.

Nissan’s CVTs generally benefit from regular fluid changes and inspections to maintain optimal performance. Following the manufacturer’s recommended service intervals for the transmission fluid is crucial in preventing issues like shuddering or slipping. Our team can guide you on the best maintenance plan to keep your CVT smooth and reliable.

Opting for OEM or premium aftermarket parts can reduce the likelihood of repeated fixes, saving you money over time. At Creech Import Repair, we provide guidance on part options to balance performance, durability, and cost-effectiveness, ensuring long-term value for your Nissan.

Our friendly, knowledgeable staff at Creech Import Repair is here to help. We’ll review your vehicle’s service history, inspect key components, and recommend maintenance or repairs based on Nissan’s guidelines and your car’s unique condition. This personalized approach ensures that your Nissan stays reliable, safe, and efficient for the long haul.
