The floor boards on m/v are rotting. It is a known issue, nissan has been aware and never told the buying public. Please force a recall to fix issue. My nissan only has 54k for mileage and has been well taken care of. Discovered the issue as a result of having struts and break work done to the car.

Rusting floorboards both driver and passenger sides.
During a maintence check the dealership reported that the secondary timing chain is making excessive noise. They recommend I replace the secondary timing kit for $1,500 as soon as possible. They also stated drivers floor pan rust and passagner side show sign of going soon they stated nissan had fix for this that would cost $925 and that this was something that happens alot to this cars
I thought a leaf was hanging from below my car when parked. It turned out that the floorboard is completely corroded through to the inside of the vehicle on the drivers side. I have taken my car to the nissan dealership since purchased in late 2006. They explained that it would cost between $2,000 to $3,000 to get repaired. I have only had the car for 9 years and much of this time it parked in the garage during the winter. I was sure damage was not a expected deterioration based on normal use. This was confirmed later by researching on line and seeing other complaints.
Tl* the contact owns a 2007 nissan maxima. While the vehicle was at the mechanic, the technician diagnosed that the floor pan needed to be replaced due to corrosion. The failure happened without warning. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was 200,000.
The floor pans are starting to rot out on my nissan maxima. This is clearly a manufacturing defect as there are numerous other owners reporting the exact same issue with their nissan maximas. A safety recall should be implemented to replace the floor pans in these cars. There is absolutely no reason why a 7 year old car should be rotting to this extent.
My car has approximately 60,000 miles on it. When I took it to the dealer for a squeaky noise in the engine, they told me the timing chain was failing and needed to be replaced. My hood and roof also have the clear coat peeling up and fading. Since timing chain is a safety issue, I paid 2,000 for them to fix this. I contacted their consumer affairs and since my car is out of warranty, they cannot help me.
