Car lost power and engine got louder. Took car in for repair and had to replace heat shield which was covered under extended warranty and the exhaust had so how come out of the mounting brakes. Everything but the manifold had to come out of pocket.
Update from Apr 24, 2025 Lost power when accelerating and engine got louder. I have in the past 3 years put in over 10k in repair to this car and that is not including Maintenance. It is a money pit and a huge POS. I have done ALL recommended Maintenance per Nissan guideline, use all premium fluids and etc. That's has done nothing for the reliability on this car. NISSAN IS CRAP!! They are not reliable at all!! It feels like the company only want to recall issues that "cost efficient" and not do anything about the issues that are a real problem.
