Consumer Description

MY 2008 NISSAN MAXIMA SL FLOORBOARDS HAVE RUSTED ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES. THE RUST WAS SO BAD, THE CAR WOULD NOT PASS THE STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA VEHICLE INSPECTION. I HAD TO HAVE A BODY SHOP CUT OUT THE FLOORBOARDS ON BOTH SIDES, WELD IN NEW SUPPORTS, FLOORBOARD AND THEN RESEAL AND REPAIR CARPET. THIS WAS A DEFECT AS TO THE WAY THE CORROSION OCCURRED, MOISTURE TRAPPED IN BETWEEN LAYERS OF FLOORING. IN ADDITION, IT IS NOT A PLACE ANYONE NORMALLY EXAMINES, AS MOST CARS DON'T HAVE THIS TYPE OF DEFECT. THE REPAIR COST ME $850, JUST SO I FELT SAFE IN THE VEHICLE AND IT WOULD PASS INSPECTION. THE COMPANY DOING THE REPAIR TOLD ME ALL I HAD BETWEEN MY FEET AND THE ROAD WAS CARPET LINER.
