Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On or about when my 2000 nissan maxima reached 52,000 miles the check engine light came on which turned out to be my 6 ignition coils. according to other mechanics these coils are supposed to last the life of the car or at the very least much longer than 52,000 miles. i had replaced one due to the cost of $84.00 a piece and a labor cost of $280.00. this fixed the problem but i was told that eventually all the coils would fail. well, that day has come and i must replace all the remaining coils. i am surprised that the dealer mechanic was aware that these parts failed with such frequency and that a recall has not yet been submitted. please investigate nissan on this defective part and protect us consumers from this fraud. *nm
