Description of the problem	I purchased this vehicle at staten island nissan exactly two years ago. Since then, i've only put 4,000 miles on it. I've always smelled something a bit awful when first starting the vehicle. During it's last inspection it was determined that it needed new rotors. While getting the rotors replaced, a mechanic who'd formerly worked at nissan had determined noticed that the secondary timing chain and gasket were bad, causing an internal leak. After brief research, i've discovered that this has been a common problem that nissan has not been informing their consumers and this is a very dangerous/expensive manufacturer's defect. I've since placed several calls to staten island nissan and have been receiving the run around. I've also contacted their consumer affairs department who'd informed me to take it to a nissan dealership to get it inspected. I have to pay for the inspection.
