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.
