Airbag warning light won't turn off. I'm worried it will spontaneously deploy at anytime. It is the opinion of various car wash establishments that roof and hood paint is a common defect on Nissan vehicles, including mini-vans. My car's hood and roof look like I've lived by the sea for years. Truth is that I've always lived inland. There's no reason why my car should look 20 years old!

Passengers side front floor pan rusted through as if car is 40 years old. Not only is this a body frame defect but a safety issue. Hundreds of on line forums note the problem is obvious and Nissan refuses to admit design defect. This defect justifies a recall for repair otherwise value of vehicle has been significantly diminished. See: Maxima.org/forums/6th-generation-Maxima-2004-2008/655476-floor-pan-rust-anyone.html.

I took my Nissan in for a routine oil change at pep boys and was immediately notified of rust on the floor boards on both sides of the car. It was brought to my attention that the driver side is becoming a safety issue and can fail at any time due to the severity of the problem. I notified my local Nissan dealership and was given a quote for the repairs. I forwarded said quote to Consumer Affairs at Nissan of North America and was later notified that the manufacture declined any solution to my problem. It has come to my attention that many cars of the same make and model have the same exact issue. It has been reported before both with the NHTSA as well as the BBB. If it is a prevalent problem the manufacturer should take responsibility for the defect and try to repair all issues before people are hurt. The repairs are extensive, labor consuming and expensive.
