I'm thinking about lemong lawing mine too... I've been in for over 15 items (and a couple they haven't been able to fix after a few visits..). I've contacted Nissan with my complaints and they didn't do much, just told me that it's up to the dealer to cover warranty work, etc. Anyway, while researching my problems the dealership told Nissan that the car has been in for 109 working days (I know it's not that many, but who knows - I've been back to the dealership so many times), and that they've given me a loaner for over half of the times it's been back (I know for a *FACT* that I only had a loaner once). Anyway, I think my dealer is lying... but 109 days is more than 30 working days which is neccessary to return the car as a lemon.

Is that a hard process? Whom should I contact? What does it cost? I have 12026 miles on it now.... and still having issues (just had my rotors turned...).

Can I Get A Copy Via Email Please

The dealer will only fix TSB's if they can find the problem. So for the trans shifting problems, you know damn well they won't run it on a cold engine so they wouldn't be able to duplicate the problem. So ****ed with my car, I think this is my last nissan. F*ck em for poor craftsmanshift

mattman - Thanks for this reference. I printed this just to have on hand in case I get the 'shimmies'.

This was an interesting read. They do bring out the fact the tires must be warm, psi must be right in all four tires, the Hunter GSP9700 must be used (by a qualified technician), and the steering rack sliding force must be adjusted.

If done properly, these steps should theoretically remove most (if not all) shimmy from most cars. It concerns me that some folks have not been able to overcome the 'shimmies'. I could be wrong, but I feel some of the problem may lie in the fact too many technicians are either uninformed, incompetent or unconcerned.

Thank you for finding this. Little skeptical like everyone else this will be the permenant fix, but at least it is better than nothing.

My dealers diagnosis is that they need to reduce the air pressure in the tires. Well as you can imagine, that didnt fix it. I informed of the TSB, and he said, "its not a sterring rack problem", The Maxima's are known for the shimmy problem and its as good as you're going to get it." This clown actually said that I should just give up because the cars were known for this. What a jacka$$. Grossman Nissan Chevrolet in Old Saybrook, CT. This was the service manager for Nissan there.
