| Description of the problem | After several dealerships would not address a heated steering wheel that does not heat up it gets luke cool to warm only in spots around the steering wheel! As per finally one nissan service center the service mgr a very decent person tested it with a wireless thermometer tried very hard to get this supposedly heated steering wheel to work properly replaced it with a new one but still does the same thing! Does not work like nissan states in brochure! This is unfair that i have over 20 problems with this car and nissan will not do the right thing! I feel my health declining over a car that needs a babysitter! |
