| I just bought a used 2008 nissan armada le (48000miles) with tow package and hooked up to my small enclosed trailer (1800 gwr). i went into my house for less than 5 minutes and when i returned to the truck i saw it was completely bottomed out in the rear. i started the truck and the compressor came on and auto leveled out, but within 15 minutes of driving it was completely flat and caused severe handling issues. this is very dangerous and could lead to an accident. after doing some research online i saw that this is extremely common and nissan has a service bulletin out but will not recall there faulty air lines that run from the compressor to the rear air bags. people all over have been shocked at nissan's failure to address the problem and not finding a permanent fix. i have seen people with brand new models claim the have had the whole system replaced multiple times and the leak still re-occurs leading to the air bag failure. this is what the lemon laws were written for so i hope someone pursued it. i hope writing this helps all owners get this problem resolved and i urge anyone that owns a nissan armada to look and listen for the compressor running. it's not too obvious of a problem until you attempt to tow but you will see the rear sagging and the compressor turning on frequently. for more info research it here http://www.clubarmada.com/forums/show thread.php?t=12815 and the technical service bulletin for nissan is ntb10142. *tr | |||
