| Description of the problem | This is by far the worst vehicle i have ever purchased. I have replaced the transmission once.... It still does not work properly and shifts so hard my passengers think i'm slamming on the brakes. And now the steering lock module has failed. After reading 100s of complaints from people with the same issue, i am appalled to find that this is not a recall. I will never purchase another nissan nor will anyone that knows me as they've witnessed all issues occur with zero accountability on nissan's account. |
