Consumer Description

WATER LEAKS INSIDE THE CAR EVERY TIME IT RAINS, WHEN IT'S STATIONARY. WATER IS ALL OVER THE FRONT FLOOR MATS AND BACK FLOOR MATS. FROM THE MOMENT I BOUGHT THE CAR, WATER GOT TRAPPED IN THE PASSENGER FRONT DOOR. I HAD TO MANUALLY DRAIN THE WATER BY LIFTING THE RUBBER ON THE EDGES OF THE DOOR. CURRENTLY, THE WATER HAS MOVED INSIDE THE CAR. AS SAID ABOVE, ALL OVER THE CAR FLOOR. I TOOK THE CAR TO NISSAN AND THEY DISCOVER THE THE BODY DRAINING HOSE CAME OFF, $500 LATER. THIS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, HOW CAN A DRAINAGE HOSE JUST COME OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE WATER CAN CREATE ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THE CAR AND PRESENT UNSAFE DRIVING.
