General Comments:

I was so pleased with the car when the dealership delivered it; very low kilometers and full service history. I never drive the car in town, yet the clutch shudders, and the entire car shudders if the car is not warmed up. I take care of my cars and this car is nothing but work.

I have never had a car with such low kilometers fall apart so quickly. I found forums that relate to the large and small repairs. It seems clutch, shockers and electronic problems are "normal" for this car. The biggest appointment is the rust. The tailgate needs to be removed to fix it. Dealership said it should have never have had such deep rust for a spotless car!

Every day it seems that I hate the car more and more. The worst thing is I can't sell due to the long list of things to do. I fell in love with the glass roof and fantastic specs, but all that gloss hid a poorly built car. I owned a Honda HR-V for years and drove over 250000 klm; never had a day of trouble. Never will I buy a Nissan again!

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No
