My 2004 Nissan Maxima exp transmission problems @ 65k replaced out of warranty since then the car has had (4) front motor mounts (1) transmission mount. (1)rack and pinion replaced,(1) right front axle replaced. Struts are now bad! wheel bearings replaced, oil seals replaced and the front end makes noise like something big is loose. Over $12,000. 00 dollars into vehicle last year alone? when the car came back with the new trans it still was not right ? I notified the dealer and they said they could not find anything? I chose not to pay @ last minute to bring to there attention and I was sent to collections? I am still paying the $3,997. 00 plus $1,500. 00 fine for isf the vehicle is on its 2nd transmission and its gone bad now as well? Nissan did replace the right axle @no/charge that was all.
