Example complaints

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

“I noted an error message on my dash regarding a failure to the ABS.I went to the dealer who pulled a code c1111 for a failed hydraulic control assembly; a very expensive repair. My car has only 19k miles, and is lightly driven. Online research on GT-R blogs, and elsewhere reveal that this is a very common problem on early gt-rs, affecting a high percentage of them at low mileage. I contacted Nissan's GT-R report line, and they were of no help. I recently saw a recall on other Nissan products related to their ABS systems. …”
