What owners report
DT: CONSUMER REPORTS: THE TRUNK OF HER CAR FALLS DOWN ON HER HEAD. THERE ISN'T ANYTHING THERE TO SECURE IT; WHEN THE WIND BLOWS OR IF SHE IS PUTTING SOMETHING IN THE TRUNK, IT WILL FALL DOWN . *JB

WITH NO WARNING, THE TIMING CHAIN SKIPPED SPROCKETS ON STARTUP, CAUSING VALVE, CYLINDER, AND CRANKSHAFT DAMAGE. THIS NECCESSITATED REPLACEMENT OF THE ENGINE AT A TOTAL COST OF $3902.21. NISSAN WOULD DO NOTHING ABOUT REIMBURSING ANY OF THE EXPENSE DUE TO A TENSIONER DESIGN DEFECT, SINCE THE AUTO WAS OUT OF WARRANTEE. SINCE INTERNAL TIMING CHAINS USUALLY LAST THE USEFUL LIFE OF AN ENGINE, ABOUT 120-140K MILES, THIS WAS VERY PREMATURE. WHILE, THE INCIDENT HAPPENED WHILE THE AUTO WAS STATIONARY, IT COULD VERY WELL HAVE HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY WHILE TRAVELING AT 70 MPH. THE ENGINE WOULD POSSIBLY SEIZE, WITH AN INSTANT DECELERATION WITH A MANUAL SHIFT CAR.
TREAD SEPARATIONS ON THREE OUT OF FOUR TIRES (TIRESIZE: 195-65R14)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 195-65R14 )
