"Luxury at half the cost"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

There has been a ticking noise when ever the Heater/Air Conditioner fan is on. The dealer claims that they have never heard this noise.

The brakes always squeak. Even after they get fixed it still continues shortly after. The dealer claims it is a "Maxima Problem".

The back seat area is to small.

The gas mileage is not the best I've experienced. People with SUV's pay less to fill up their gas tanks.

The air conditioning is a little confusing to operate. What ever happened to a button that says air conditioner?

General comments?

I am very pleased with the exterior look of the car. It looks well put together and powerful based on the front end. I feel the back end is lacking a little on looks though.

The interior is nice and classy looking. Good job on the features.

When it is well tuned up it runs excellent. It is very powerful and fast. It glides nicely on the highway at high speeds.

It has a classy and sophisticated look at a lesser price than the other luxury cars with the speed and performance of a sports car.

I use to have the same problem with squeaky brakes on my 99 Maxima... Then I was told by a friend the people who did my breaks did not place the right clips back on them which will cause a squeaky sound from the brakes, even if they are new!

I am now going through the coil issue... We had the problem at 50K and the Nissan Dealership told us its the spark plugs, the fuel injectors need to be cleaned, so on and so forth, now 86K its the coils...
