1999 Nissan Maxima GLX review from North America
"Very nice car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
All six ignition coils need to be replaced. It will cost about $700.
The power steering hose had a leak and needed to be replaced which cost $160.
General comments?
I really like this car, but was surprised that all six ignition coils need replacing. This seems like a very common problem with these cars and I think there should be a recall on these parts. I follow the regular scheduled maintenance of the car and have had no other problems.
