“After reading several articles on line about the rusting cross member bar of the radiator core of all Nissan Altima and maxima cars from 1992-2006 and their re-badged infiniti cars I decided to check my vehicle which only has 41500 original miles and kept in a garage most of the time owning it. I am the first owner and kept this car in mint condition. Upon inspection I noticed the cross member bar of the radiator core was completely rusted in the center like what is affecting all the other vehicles of this model. My car is well cared for and has no rust anywhere except for this area. …”

Upon inspection I noticed the cross member bar of the radiator core completely rusted. No rust anywhere except for this area of vehicle. Part should be recalled due to inferior workmanship of the steel this is a serious and dangerous problem because it supports engine components and may cause an accident it the parts give way under the rusted support structure.”
