Scott of Vero Beach FL (09/03/08) I brought my 2005 Nissan Armada in to have a tsb done for the ABS (a known problem). When I started to get failure in my brakes, Nissan did not have a solution for it. I bought a big brake kit for Stillen because of the saftey issues. This is one of the following reasons why I am writing this. Another reason was because a put a hole in the glovebox, aftermarket wheels, had a telephone wire run in my truck, had a aftermarket radio, etc.. Randy (service advisor) call me and stated there were on tsb for my SUV and that I do not know what I am talking about. He told me I have couple of problems. First I needed to have a brake fluid flush. Second I need to have a transmission flush. Last something had chew up my washer fluid bottle. I knew that that happened and had already had it checkout by my local shop. That was not good enough for Randy. Then he gave me a price to do the 2 flushes around 700.00. I told him I could spend that much and said I bought the truck to you for just the tsb. Again Randy said there are no tsb or recalls on my SUV. I told him I would call him back. I talk to my local shop and he told me that the two flushes would be less then 300.00. At this part I decide to get my Armada and call Nissan. When my father went do to the dealership to get my SUV, Randy got an attitude because I wasn't going to have them do the work. My father told him I had already contacted Nissan. Randy's reply was that not to do that and if I did he would void my warranty. When my father drop the truck off he signed a paper giving permission to anything up to 100.00 and then saw it with a 155.40 hand writing in and told that is what we owed. Needless to say they told me since I didn't do the bgrake flush they (the dealership)were not going to do any of the tsb or recalls. I pay the 155.40 and got my truck the following day and nothing was done with a void warranty stating nissan was not going to do any of the tsb or recalls. I feel that if there is a problems with the ABS and A/C before the reasons there gave me for not doing it. What is the difference the samething is happening either none of my add on or no add ons.

Tony of Shelton CT (08/12/08) The Nissan Titan had underengineered brakes that would warp rather quickly. Nissan stepped up and redesigned the brake system and installed an entirely new brake system in my truck at no charge. This included new pads, rotors and calipers on all 4 wheels. Now, 9k miles later and the new brakes are warped. Dealer made note of the problem yet Nissan will not fix them. They say wear and consumable items are only warranteed for 12k/12 months. Well it's been less than that!

Emmylou of Paw Paw IL (06/28/08) I had just bought a used 2004 Nissan Titan with only 30,000 miles on it. My husband was just driving back home and the tailpipe fell off. There was no apparent reason why the tailpipe fell off; my husband didn't run anything over and the road was smooth. The hot tailpipe then melted the rear wiring harness and this resulted in the ECM and mass airflow sensor to short out. The extended warranty will not cover this because the exhaust is considered to be a regularly maintained part (like brakes and filters!!!) Doesn't make much sense since the exhaust doesn't require regular maintenance.

Kathy of Milton Freewater OR (05/27/08) I have a very expensive SUV that has every probleum you can think of.(2004)Nissan Armada. I was told that again our car needed a 1400.00 repair due to a part that was updated, not recalled. although when this part failed it caused totaL LOSS OF POWER and that could end in an accident or even death to one of us. How do I get this labeled right so I am not responsiable for this type of repair.

The tires would not stay in contact with the road after encountering uneven road surfaces ! I have now fixed this problem ! ! !
