Nissan used parts in the timing chain system which prematurely fail and will not cover the repair after warranty. the issue was not able to be discovered until it had already failed and in this case, is not a repair the owner can perform on their own. certain mechanics have even chose not to perform this repair and the ones which are able to, charge in the $2000+ range. when contacting nissan about this issue, they were aware of this problem but had said it would have to have been repaired while under warranty. once the timing is effected, the engine and drive train seem to have dropped in performance in which i have very sluggish acceleration and cannot ready speeds over 30 mph. there is no way i was able to even check if the timing chain system had signs of going bad, and if there was a recall, this issue could have been avoided for myself and others. this faulty system creates an unsafe, unreliable machine which nissan should take full responsibility.
