| Description of the problem | My nissan armada caught fire with no warning. Nissan has admitted this is due to a recalled air compressor unit with likelihood to catch fire. Nissan will not remedy the situation and is now negotiating in bad faith. Nissan has offered to buy out the car so they can sell the components at auction - however, they are unwilling to make us whole. *jb |
