| Description of the problem | Nissan uses faulty equipment in their vehicles and ashly at their consumer affairs dept actually told me that nissan only expects their vehicles to last the 3 yrs or 36k miles!! Since i purchased this vehicle i have had the a/c compressor replaces, all heater hosses replaced, oil leaks, coolant leaks, drive belts replaced and the alternator replaced. My car literally broke down in my driveway. I was returning from vacation with my son, my dog and my cat-if my trip would have 15 mins. Longer i would have broke down on the side of the road. Nissan does not stand behind their products at all and does not care about the consumer or their safety!! |
