| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I contacted performance nissan and also nissan corporation several times. they told me that there was nothing that they could do to fix my rear suspension cracking noise. all they could do was put rubber between the springs in hopes that it would take care of the suspension problems. well, it did for about 4 or 5 months, but the cracking noise is back and worse than before. i also complained about front suspension cracking noises but also was told nothing could be done. seat belts have been changed before, but are acting up again. they don't retract. the engine has knocking and pinging noises at all speeds, so i tried super unleaded to see if the engine knocking and pinging noises would stop, but they didn't. what concerns me the most is the fact that my suspension was inspected by nissan corporation and they themselves said that there was nothing they could do to fix the problem. again, like i said before, they put some kind of rubber between the springs to quiet the noise. it did not last. i have asked independent nissan dealers if they have ran into this problem. they said yes. they also told me that nissan knows that there is a problem and that they can fix it, but do not want to spend the money. i believe that they wanted for my warranty to expire so that i would stop complaining to nissan about their vehicle. pretty much, it seems like a bought a lemon. it has been in the shop so many times for just about every component. if the office of defects conducted an investigation and got records from performance nissan, in regards to my vehicle, they would see how many times i was in and how they inconvenienced me. thank you for taking the time to investigate my concerns. i hope that you are able to help me, since i could not get any results from nissan corp nor from performance nissan. thank you for your efforts. if paper work is needed to support my claims, i have plenty of it, i just need to look for it. *ak |
