Give it time. Nissan had so much trouble out of them that they doubled the warranty on the transmission instead of a recall. My mom's went out at 75,000 miles.

I don't intend to, it's a 2015 and has 33k miles. I typically trade up at 40k-50k.

Looking at the Acura MDX AWD next.

The hamburger buns at Micky D's have enough sugar in them to be be classified as a confectionery.

Sure, this guy lost weight but look at what he ate.

A typical day's sustenance varied, but it would typically include two egg white delight McMuffins, a bowl of maple oatmeal, and a 1% milk for breakfast; a salad for lunch; and a value meal for dinner.

Well of course what you eat from the menu matters. That being said, I just saw an article circulating about fast food places with the lowest average calorie items and mcduck's was fairly low.

I'm saddened by the fact that Honda has gone to the CVT as well. I'll bet the Acura will have one too. When they're good they're great but when they break they're done. You can't replace the belt. You have to replace the tranny. That's good that you trade that often. I'll bet you never have to repair anything!

Last time I ate there my eggs were cold and looked like they had been in the skillet for 8 seconds. I called the bull rider eggs and they sucked.

I've had others tell me they've had problems, but thankfully I never have.

Comcast...shouldn't be any explanation needed
Dell Computers...used to be great but started going with cheaper components and their tech support is great if you like talking to Bill from India who is reading off a cue card.

Beware the nav system. It's a piece of junk. We had to buy a Garmin to keep in the car. We got the advance package...but they never had one available to test drive so we just assumed the 2016 would be better than our 2012 TL. Uh uh. Have been VERY disappointed and extremely FRUSTRATED.

Lexus is much better, friend has one. After seeing our MDX in action he stopped looking at Acura.

Sad too, we had always been pleased with Acura until the MDX.

Also, Time Warner and Comcast for their ****ty business. I wish there were other businesses I could boycott but it's difficult based on the monopolies they run like Ticketmaster and the Airlines

The CVT in my Q60 is great, no problems at all.
Click to expand...

In addition to the cvt going out I've had the following issues:

Rear sway bar rusted through and broke - common problem for '07
I've replaced 2 brake sensors- the ones behind the brake pedal that tells the car it's ok to start because your foot is on the brake- luckily they're only $50-still a pisser
Got a hole in the manifold- I'm thinking no biggie I can have it welded -- well nope---- it was right where all four of the pipes come together and couldn't reach it with the welder
Power steering rack went out..... leaking fluid everywhere- replaced it- then about 10 months later it went out again- under warranty but still a pisser

If one more thing breaks on that car I'm setting it on fire

I had a contaminated Bourbon County last year that I had aged and saved for a special occasion. Apparently, there was a recall earlier that was for a limited time only. I explained to customer service that I had no way to know about that, but they said they would not offer a refund/replacement with the next batch. So, I politely told them that there was plenty of other good beer in the world.

I feel like boycotting them for the way they handled your issue

You had all these problems on a QX60? Good grief. Fortunately mine's new enough to be under warranty, they just replaced my headlights ($1,000's) because they started to haze over ever so slightly. That's about the worst problem I've had with my Infiniti.

That's disappointing to hear. I looked at the RX 350 hybrid a couple of years ago and didn't really find it appealing. The Buick Enclave was under consideration too.

I may wait a year or two, see how the corporate tax thing plays out and look at a Tesla P85 or X (if the cost comes down a bit).

The headlights on the Altima ****box are garbage too. The cheap plastic lenses haze over like chateracts....Nissan is building hot garbage these days

Marshalls- fired my mother for taking off to get married
Home Depot- fired me my first day on the job
McDonalds- super size me
Chobani- ran by anti American terrorist
Verizon- screwed me out of 1400$ after cancelling my contract (2 iPhones)
Jack wills outdoor living- fired me for being a whistleblower after I caught 2 co workers lying about shipments and changing the manifest off trucks to hide merchandise and sell it on the side, and they were lying and falsifying paper work on warranty orders basically getting full swing sets (Rainbow play systems) for free and only replacing what needed to be replaced on customers who made the warranty claim.
