| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I am a 2000 nissan maxima owner and have had the ignition coils misfire that the dealer wants to $850 to replace. i feel that this repair should be covered by nissan in the form of a manufacturers recall due to the fact that many other maxima owners have experienced the same problems and that there is evidence that the original ignition coils are defective. 1) this issue is very common with maximas and they perform many ignition coil repair/replacements. 2) i have seen on the internet service advisors suggesting to replace all the coils even if only one of them is malfunctioning because they say, "the coils are defective and will all fail eventually". 3)there is a recall petition on the internet with about 2200+ people all having the same problem i understand that nissan has since issued a new part and part number for all ignition coil replacements, which suggests that the original coils are, in fact, defective. to maintain brand integrity and loyalty, i respectfully submit my complaint and request for a manufacturer's recall. sincerely, [xxx]. *nm information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr |
