“I bought my 05 Murano from the dealership for $6000 and I only drove it for 3 months before the alternator and the transmission went. I paid $600 for the alternator to be repaired and 2 weeks later the transmission went. The dealership said that it would cost me $4200 to fix the transmission. They refused to give me any sort of discount. I got 3 months out of a $6000+ dollar car. I am so upset this has caused so many problems in my life in so many ways. I can't believe Nissan is morally ok with ripping me off like this.”

The first two times were in residential areas, but the third time was on a heavily traveled road at night causing a serious and extremely dangerous situation. The car was almost struck several times while I was removing my toddler from the backseat of the disabled car. …”
