At the car wash, i was using the scrubber brush to clean the rear window, and the nozzel that dispenses wiper fluid became detached. I noticed it right away and investigated it. It apparently just snaps into the hole, and one of the plastic cleats that collapses into the hole had just broken off, all because i was washing the vehical. What kind of cheap grade of plastic is nissan using? Are they sure they should be touting this rigg as a tough off road capable vehical. From what ive seen, if you look at it side ways something might break.
