| We bought a new 2007 maxima in 5/07. at 26,425 miles (almost 2 years old), the front rotors needed replaced because they were warped and thin. now, another 25,804 miles (and almost 2 years after the first replacement) the same problem has occured. they tried to blame it on hard braking and/or driving steep hills regularly; which is not accurate. rotors should not fail with low miles. we have a 20 year old car that we replaced the rotors once. i searched the web for simular complaints and found allworldauto.com. on their web site, there were numerous complaints about the maxima rotors. i believe that this problem is under reported by consumers and the company. the company should not be getting away with this. | |||

| I have had several problems with this car...this being the latest. since buying this vehicle brand new i have had to have the entire dashboard replaced because it warped, the radio replaced, the chrome rails on top of the car replaced and now i took my vehicle in for service because i was hearing a chirping noise. i then got a call back and was told that the compressor had gone bad. but it gets better as right after that i was told that nissan got a bad batch of compressors and they can't get a new one for me. but it still gets better...i was then told that if i don't replace the compressor (at a cost of over 1k) then it will fail and damage the belts, which will cause the power steering to fail as well as damaging the condenser. so i need a part that nissan says is defective so they don't have anymore of them and are waiting on a new supplier, but in addition to that if i don't get this part it will cause additional damage to the car. *tr | |||
