Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Bought a new 2018 Nissan Armada in dec 2018 in the evening. Not thinking much about it purchased my new SUV and drove home. Shortly after my purchase I noticed in the sun that my truck paint didn't look quite right. After washing I noticed a couple paint chips around the door area that were quite significant. Contacted Nissan promptly about this issue. After taking to a Nissan collision center and being told its a bad quality paint and will only be correct with being stripped down to the metal and redone, this was completely disregarded by Nissan. …”
