| 2004 |
POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION |
THIS IS IS REGARDS TO THE NISSAN MAXIMA 2004 AND 2005 MODELS. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN THESE MODELS. THE CAR WILL STALL AT RED LIGHTS OR WHEN TRYINGING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC ON EXPRESSWAYS, INTER STATE HIGHWAYS OR SIMILAR ROADWAYS. NISSAN REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS PROBLEM OR CORRECT IT. WE WERE UNAWARE WHENL WE INITIALLY BEGAN TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH OUR VEHICLE. SINCE WE PURCHASED OUR VEHICLE, WE HAVE RETURNED TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES. THE FIRST TWO TIMES WE WERE TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH OUR CAR. THE FIRST TIME WE TOOK IT IN WAS ABOUT THREE DAYS AFTER PURCHASE. THE SECOND TIME WAS ABOUT 3-4 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE. THE PROMBLEM HAS BECOME SEVERE, AND NOW THEY SAY IT IS TOO LONG. IF YOU SEARCH THE INTERNET -- WE DID LOOKING FOR HELP, YOU WILL FIND LOTS OF CHATTER (COMPLAINTS) ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION IN THESE MODELS. WE HAVE A 2004 MAXIMA. NISSAN SHOULKD RECALL THESE VEHICLE AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM. INSTEAD, THEY CONTINUE TO SALE THE UNSAFE VEHICLES. |

STRUCTURE:BODY:HOOD |
THE PROBLEM LIES WITH THE HYDRAULLIC RODS THAT HOLD UP THE HOOD FOR ANY KIND OF MAINTENANCE. I WAS TOLD BY A DEALER THESE OFTEN FAIL UNDER COLD CONDITIONS, BUT WHEN WEATHER WARMS, THE RODS WILL WORK AGAIN. THIS FAILURE IS TOTALLY UNEXPECTED. THE RODS SHOW NO LEAK AND APPEAR TO BE WITHOUT PROBLEMS. AS I RAISED THE HOOD ON MY MAXIMA, NEVER HAVING EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM BEFORE, I REACHED IN TO BEGIN MY INTERIOR INSPECTION WHEN THE HOOD DROPPED STRIKING MY HEAD, BUT ALLOWING ME TO REMOVE MY HANDS BEFORE THE HOOD SLAMMED DOWN. IF IT HAD NOT STRUCK MY HEAD AND FORCED ME BACK, I WOULD HAVE BROKEN OR SEVERED SEVERAL FINGERS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE NISSAN COMPANY HAS OPENED A FILE ON MY COMPLAINT. THE FILE NUMBER IS 2766755. THE CAR IS ONLY 31/2 YEARS OLD. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS TYPE OF FAILURE IN MY OTHERS CARS. NISSAN AGREED TO COMPENSATE FOR 1/2 OF THE REPLACEMENT COST, BUT I BELIEVE THIS IS A MATERIAL DEFECT THAT HAS SAFETY IMPLICATIONS SO THAT IT WHY I AM REPORTING THIS. |
