2004 Nissan Maxima SE review from North America

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Had the Goodyear tire problem, cracking sidewalls. Dealer failed to disclose this to me until after I filed a complaint. Originally just want to charge me $1,200 to replace the tires with less than 30K on them.

Transmission started slipping at 58k, they charged me for a trans service/flush and it helped for long enough to get the car out of warranty. Now I have the exact same problem with the trans that everyone else has.

AC when out right after warranty too.

RF strut rattles like others, of course the front heat shield.

Ate up a second set of tires in 20k, on third set of tires in first 70K!

Car blows cold air from heater when idling; this occurred within warranty, dealer bled coolant system; same problem reoccurred after warranty expired.

The car has great power and looks nice, but reliability is horrible. Many complaints to the NISSAN complaint department with nothing resolved, NISSAN is a JOKE. I should have learned my lesson on the first 93 Maxima that had the cam chain tensioner problems; one set covered under warranty, defective parts installed again, problem reoccurred right after warranty, and NISSAN did what they appear to do best, turn their backs on GOOD CUSTOMERS.

NISSAN burned once, burned twice, lost me, my family and friends and anyone I can tell FOREVER!!! Show me where to sign for the class action.
