NHTSA Complaint #10442543 — 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA

I HAVE AN 2005 MODEL YEAR MAXIMA (BUILT IN MID 2004) WITH FLOOR BOARDS ARE ROTTED OUT AND NEED REPLACING, ISSUE WAS FOUND ABOUT 5000 MILES AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED HOWEVER THE DEALER WOULD NOT HONOR ANYTHING EVEN THOUGH THE ROT WAS SIGNIFICANT AND CLEARLY HAD BEEN HAPPENING FOR MANY MONTHS. I DRIVE OVER 2500 MILES PER MONTH AND ITS CLEAR IT WAS FAILED BEFORE THE WARRANTY ENDED. THIS AMOUNT OF CORROSION SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING ON A CAR THAT WAS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND DEALER MAINTAINED. I SHOULD ADD THAT THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALER AT 98,000 MILES FOR A COMPLETE TUNE UP WITH THE EXPRESS REASON OF MAKING SURE EVERYTHING WAS GOOD BEFORE THE WARRANTY ENDED. I HAD PATCHES REPLACED UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE AFTER THE DEALER WOULD NOT HONOR ANYTHING. THE CAR NOW HAS 134,000 MILES ON IT AND IS GOING IN NEXT WEEK TO HAVE NEW FLOOR PANS WELDED IN. VERY DISAPPOINTED. I MAY LIVE IN THE NORTH EAST BUT I'VE NEVER HAD A CAR ROT OUT LIKE THIS AND HAVE ZERO BODY ROT, JUST THE FLOOR BOARDS.... *TR
