Consumer Description
THE VEHICLE TAKES OVER 40 MINUTES OF DRIVING TO HAVE THE HEAT BLOWER ACTIVATE ON COLD TEMPERATURES. STARTING AND LETTING THE VEHICLE RUN IDLE FOR 20 MINUTES BEFORE DRIVING DOESN'T SEEM TO HELP THIS SITUATION. HEATER WILL NOT WORK UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, CAUSE THE WINDOWS TO FOG UP WHILE DRIVING AND PUTTING THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS IN A SERIOUS SITUATION IN WHICH THEY CAN EXPERIENCE FROSTBITE FROM THE EXTREME TEMPERATURE, ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THRU THE WINDOWS AND LOSING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE COLD CAUSES THE DRIVER TO LOSE GRIP ON THE STEERING WHEEL. DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE HEATING SYSTEM, SAYING THAT IS TYPICAL FOR NISSANS TO TAKE THAT LONG TO HEAT UP. NO OTHER EXPLANATION PROVIDED OR SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE.
