NHTSA Complaint #10747811 — 2012 NISSAN QUEST

MAY 2014, I HAD A WET DRIVER SIDE A PILLAR THAT WAS LEAKING. NISSAN ATTRIBUTED IT TO A DEFECTIVE SUNROOF WITH A CRACK. THE HEADLINER, SUBWOOFER AND AMPLIFIER WERE REPLACED. ON JULY 10, 2015, I TOOK MY CAR TO A FLAGSHIP CARWASH. AFTER MY CAR WAS WASHED I NOTICED WATER ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE REAR SUNROOF AND ON THE HEADLINER IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE ON BOTH THE RIGHT AND LEFT SIDES OF THE CAR WAS WET IN ALL THE ABOVE NOTED LOCATIONS. MY RADIO ALSO STOPPED WORKING. NISSAN HAD MY CAR FOR FIVE DAYS AND SAID THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE LEAK OR DETERMINE WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE RADIO. THEY WOULD NOT LOOK AT THE RADIO AS IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I TOOK MY CAR TO A LOCAL RADIO REPAIR SHOP AND THEY DISCOVERED RUST BEHIND THE PANELS IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE, IN THE CARGO AREA AND 2 INCHES OF WATER UNDER MY CARGO AREA. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED FEB 2013 NEW.
