“2004 Nissan armada developed problems with the brake equipment.***no answer required*** there was a shimmy when braking, the passenger seat would not adjust and the rear brakes were noisy. The front rotors and pads were replaced, the rotors were resurfaced, turned, re-machined and machined again.”
NHTSA complaint #10130176, filed 2005-07, 4,792 miles“In the first couple days of buying our new Nissan armada to our surprise there was a tear in the arm as well as a white streak on the captains chair just behind the drivers seat. After trying to figure out how it happened we saw that the arm had hit the center console, causing the tear and streak. Shouldn't the arm automatically go up when the chair is released or maybe the center console a bit thinner so as not to tear a rip in the arms of the chairs? I called Nissan and was told we would have to pay ourselves to have the arm replaced. …”
