WHILE CROSSING A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY, I ALMOST GOT TO THE STREET ON THE OTHER SIDE WHEN ANOTHER CAR CRASHED INTO THE FRONT END OF THE PASSENGER SIDE. I NEVER SAW THE CAR WHEN I PULLED OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY, AND I HAD EVEN BEEN VERY CAUTIOUS TO MAKE SURE IT WAS CLEAR. I JUST FELT A HORRIBLE IMPACT, AND WE BOTH LANDED INTO THE STREET OF MY DESTINATION. THE CAR WAS IN MY BLIND SPOT. THERE ARE TWO DANGEROUS AND DEADLY BLIND SPOTS ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD ON EITHER SIDE. THE DIVIDERS OF THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND SIDE DOOR WINDOWS ARE EXTREMELY WIDE AND IN ADDITION TO THIS, THE SIDEVIEW MIRRORS ARE ON THE SAME LEVEL AS THE BLIND SPOT FURTHER BLOCKING THE DRIVER'S VISION. NOT ONLY DOES THE DRIVER NOT SEE OTHER VEHICLES, THE DRIVER ALSO DOES NOT SEE PEOPLE AND CHILDREN. I HAVE HAD A JOGGER IN MY BLIND SPOT, AND IT SCARED ME TO DEATH. OTHER PEOPLE I KNOW WHO HAVE NISSAN ARMADAS HAVE ALSO COMPLAINED ABOUT ALMOST RUNNING OVER PEOPLE AND CHILDREN. I AM NOW PROCEEDING WITH TRADING IN THIS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS VEHICLE. I HOPE AND PRAY THAT AN INVESTIGATION WILL RESULT IN SOME TYPE OF CORRECTION TO THIS PROBLEM. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
APPROXIMATELY MIDDLE OF 2009, WAS PULLING UP TO STOP SIGN AND THE BRAKES DID NOT WANT TO STOP AND MADE A HORRIBLE CRUNCH SOUND WITH PEDDLE ALL THE WAY DOWN THE VEHICLE EVENTUALLY STOPPED. CONTACTED NISSAN AND MADE ARRANGEMENTS FOR A DEALER TO LOOK AT IT. OF COURSE IT DOESN'T DO THIS ALL THE TIME, BUT WHEN IT DOES IT IS VERY FRIGHTENING...THEY SUPPOSEDLY RESET THE SENSOR AND SAID THAT IT MAY IFS THE PROBLEM THEN AGAIN NOT...WENT ON A FORUM AND THERE IS SEVERAL OWNERS OF THIS SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE...SINCE THE IT HAS HAPPEN SEVERAL TIMES. I MADE A COMPLIANT WITH YOU PEOPLE AND NISSAN. IT SHOULD BE A RECALL...THIS IS AN ON GOING PROBLEM. OUR VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND LOW MILES. WE BOUGHT FOR PULLING OUR TOY HAULER WHICH WE NOW DON'T FEEL SAFE TO PULL WITH THIS CONTINUOUS ISSUE...NISSAN KNOWS THERE IS AN ISSUE AND DOES NOTHING BUT TRYING TO GET US TO PAY A 1,000.00 PLUS TO REPLACE THE BREAK BOOSTER AND SENSOR WITH NO PROMISES DO CURING THE PROBLEM.....PLEASE, WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO HAVE A RECALL BEFORE THERE IS A SERIOUS FATAL ACCIDENT. THANK YOU. *TR
