Consumer Description

THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER FLOOR PANELS ARE TOTALLY RUSTED OUT WITH SIGNIFICANT HOLES EXTENDING INTO THE VEHICLE. MY RESEARCH INDICATES THE ROOT CAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM IS A DESIGN DEFECT. RUSTING BEGAN AROUND THE DRAINAGE HOLES BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT PROPERLY SEALED BY THE MANUFACTURER. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE AND IT HAS BEEN KEPT IN PRISTINE CONDITION. NISSAN IS FULLY AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AS THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE. THEY SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. *TR
