So frustrating that we had no idea about this problem. If we had just been contacted by Nissan and told that with a simple replacement hose that they could save us $5500 we would have done it. My car has been so great up until this and now it's nothing but a paperweight because we are still paying it off and now they want us to pay $5500 to fix a problem that they new about. So frustrating! If they don't come up with a solution or compromise I will never buy another Nissan again!!!
