What Nissan has to offer?

cossie1600

I am just saying Nissan isn't as reliable as some of their Japanese competitors. As others have noted, their customer service is horrible. Of course Toyota and Honda are on par with them too as far as how bad they are. It's the same reason why I don't stay loyal to any brand. They treat you like number and dollars sign, I don't see why we should suck on their kool-aid. With all that said, I have purchased over 7 NMAC products and most of them are very good cars. I just don't think they are as great as the Honda and Toyota in terms of reliability. Fun factor and $$$ value, definitely since they are almost always cheaper.

My C6 can pull more G's, have way more problems, yet it can go down to at least 1/4 tank before fuel starvation. The same goes for my RX-8, Lotus, 350, MR2. I mean 1/2 tank fine, but 3/4 of a tank and you go fuel starve? The engineers should be shot for designing a fault gas tank.

Btw. My car at 13K miles, the metal baffle plate broke inside the gas tank. Transmission bearings and clutch whine like a mofo since new. My brake light switch went out of adjustment. Transmission always grind when cold until I change to new fluid. Is that a sign of a great car? I mean the car had never left me stranded, but it is nowhere close from being perfect or even great.

Also I don't know if you guys have ever gotten this one from the dealership. "It's a sports car, get used to the problems and rattles." I got this from three different dealership when I brought the car in for service.

Honda/Acura is becoming boring too, just like Toyota. They canned the NSX, Type R, and S2000. Plus Honda is well known for teens or older people cars.
Even that I believe they are more relaible than a Nissan.

Got a Maxima and love it as well. Fast, sporty, quite a bit of luxury, and looks good. Drove a Murano and it's a really nice crossover with luxury and very smooth. Altima one of the most reliable. Even the Nissan minivan looks strange on the outside but if you see a nicely loaded one its unlike any minivan you have seen with all the luxury features. Titan pick up truck is one of the nicer ones on the market. Xterra is a rugged off road vehicle. Everyone knows the Z and GTR. They make some quality products. Anything that is offered by either Honda and or Toyota I feel like its made cheaper than the Nissan counterpart IMO. Ex. Sentra/Civic, Rogue/CRV, Titan/Tundra, Altima/Camry/Accord, goes on and on.

After owning a 2009 altima, and now a 2011 370z, I can say that Nissan is a a very good company in my eyes. They make quality cars, ones that are affordable, safe, reliable for the most part, and stylish (imo).

If there is one thing Nissan can improve on, then it is their customer service. They dont offer the same quality customer service in their dealerships, parts department, or service department as well as some of the other companies I have had experience with, such as Toyota and Infiniti.

Other than that, I am still a fan of their cars, and I would def buy another Nissan in the future.

The styling of nissans sport oriented offerings and there power trains reliability is what calls me in. Save for the qr25 in the last gen Altima and the 06 350z vq35de which had the higher redline but didn't have the redesigned block the 07s had nissans power train IMO is one of the most reliable mass manufacturer offerings around.
