| Transmission blew. these cars are sold as cars who have a very long engine life. i just love my car and am very disappointed that i only got 125k out of it. the body and all other parts are in great shape. i service this car religiously. i see on your site a fair amount of others who have the same complaint. i love the car so much, i almost wanted to pay for a new transmission and keep driving it until i read on your site that nissan is aware of this problem and has not done anything about a recall. will most likely purchase another vehicle. thanks | |||
