Consumer Description

HESITATION GOING UP ANY INCLINE. JUST STARTED WHEN IT HIT 60000. WARRANTY ONLY FOR 50000. LOOKS LIKE NISSAN BUILT IT TO JUST GET BY THEN OVER 50000 YOU ARE OUT BIG TIME. MY BIG ISSUE IS I HAD TO TRADE CAR WITH MY DAUGHTER WHO DROVE THIS. ALMOST HAD 2 ACCIDENTS IN A WEEK BECAUSE OF HEAVY TRAFFIC. STAY AWAY FROM THIS FOR SAFETY ISSUES. ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN.
