I purchased a 2003 Nissan Frontier brand new, had only 2
miles on it. I have had no real issues, besides dealing
with dealerships and the fuel pump, until about 4 years
after purchase, but LESS than 5. I took the vehicle into
the dealership, Green Gifford Nissan, now Charles Barker
Nissan in Norfolk, VA. They told me that the paint
peeling off wasn't covered by warranty and that the paint
warranty was only good for 4 years. I argued with them
but they refused to do anything about the growing issue.
Even after showing them my warranty book they told me
that the dealership won't fix the paint job. Since then
my real quarter panel is nearly primer only, my roof
spread, my front right fender is peeling, my right rear
door and now left rear door. At first I thought it was my
truck alone, until I got online, and also saw some other
truck in Prescott, AZ with the same issue. This is
OBVIOUSLY manufacture defect, even after speaking to 9
different paint shops, 2 of them being Nissan run shops,
they all agreed, that there was a problem with the paint.
Since Nissan has continued to not assist me in any manner
what so ever, I will never buy from them again, and will
give all the bad publicity possible so that none of my
friends or family will buy again, and whenever possible
park near a Nissan dealership so that customers that may
have thought about buying their product will think twice.
I will also post these pics on blogs sites everywhere,
along with twitter, Photobucket, and Craigslist to deter
anyone from buying poor quality workmanship. For anyone
who thinks I am overreacting, I have posted pics, just
click on this link and you will understand why paying for
this quality is ridiculous. If anyone from Nissan is
reading this, I have already talked 2 family members and
7 people from my previous command in the Navy from buying
Nissan's, that’s a minimum of $225,000 I have already
discouraged, without even trying.

Have you tried calling customer assistance or even the Better Business Bureau?
