| In 2003 i purchase a nissan maxima and the next year i received a recall for the skyview. i was told by nissan headquarters to take it to the nearest dealership and they would take care of me. the reason for the recall was that the glass was not tempered correctly. my concern then was that they would mess my car up on top .at the time of the recall my warranty was good. now two years later my car has correction and the paint is chipping where they replaced the glass. i took it back to the dealership that did the work previously and they say my warranty doesn't cover the paint. i have an extended warranty and that doesn't cover the problem either. at the present time nissan has giving me no hope of fixing their mistake. my car is only three yeard old and i live in texas. i should not have corroction on my car.my car is garage kept most of the time.*ak | |||

| Safety concern regarding the front end. i've had to take my truck in for vibration of steering wheel and front end when slowing down at stop signs, lights, or parking. the vibration is only when slowing down and it feels like it radiates towards the rear end right before the complete stop. i've had to take my truck in for 4 times due to the front end. three, because of the vibration and once in dec. for red fluid dripping and getting all over the bottom and side of truck while coming back from a christmas trip about 7hrs away. i was told it had something to do with the rack and pinion. that was not good news to hear especially since we had driven back a few nights ago in the snow. now, april 2005 i still have the same problem for the fourth time with the extreme vibration of the front end while braking or slowing down. i need to be inconvenienced again when i take my truck in for a check and leaving it behind several days and be without a car. the other problems are the fact that the two front windows of the truck do not always go up when the automatic button is used. it seems that the windows begin to go up then just slide back down. this has been serviced more than four (4) times with still the same problem occurring to one of the windows. it is an inconvenience when the window does not go up when it is raining or cold wind blowing while driving and my kids are at the back seat.*ak | |||

| Backup laser warning system has failed three times, dealer washes parts and wiggles wires and works temporarily. resulted in property damage twice, as the rear view mirror is very limited and has enormous blind spots. manufacturer refuses to pay for damage and i'm afraid in busy parking lot because of huge blind spots, this is a real safety problem because of the size of the vehicle. *jb | |||
