“This is my second Infiniti I30 which is the exact same vehicle as the nissan maxima. I currently own a 1996 and have owned a 1997 prior and both had rust in the middle of the lower radiator core support. Over the weekend I looked at a 2000 Infiniti I30 for a family member considering purchase and noticed the same problem. After 3 different cars all of different model years I did extensive research and have discovered all over the internet that this is a major problem effecting every nissan maxima and Infiniti I30 from the years 1995-2000 regardless of climate or region. …”
