why arent nissans reliable? i thought japanese had good work ethic and only made reliable cars
>>
The were compromised by the French.

>>28958768
depends on the nissan
>>
>>28958768
depends on the owner, youd be a fool to think nissan could do any wrong faggot wrenchlet
>>
>>28958776
their main culprit for being shit is jatco though, which is 100% japanese
>>
>>28958782
Jatco is owned and run by Nissan, it's not an independent OEM like ZF
>>
>>28958790
So that means there's nothing wrong with the trannies and the main complaints are from Africans
>>
>>28958768
They are, apart from their garbage CVTs. Thankfully their new CEO hates them and going back to using conventional automatics.
>>

Enjoy you shit mpg kek

Nissan is an exception, they learned how to be French

crazy how made in Germany is more reliable than made in Japan now.
>>
>>28958768
They’re getting better, but I wouldn’t own anything from them unless it’s rwd.
>>
>>28958834
CVTs get like 1mpg better than a standard automatic. They were implemented mainly for planned obsolescence because they're a known part to break.
>>
>>28959014
This is true. You can get up to 3 more mpg at best with a CVT but that's garbage when said CVT destroys itself at random.
>>
>>28958768
They're owned by renault. It's like when ford bought mazda and made them use recycled steel and shit paint and ford engines to try and destroy their reputation. Mazda is just starting to get their rep back.

Gee I can't imagine why the product made under his supervision was shit
>>
>>28959304
where's nissan on this list?
>>
>>28959315
Don't forget how the French government tried to litterally take over nissan by having Renault merge with nissan and then increasing their ownership in Renault. Nissan was almost pumped and dumped as a Trojan horse to get Europe to own a Japanese company in Japan
>>

Nissan is the Dodge of Japan
>>
>>28959315
Now the truth:
Nissan was a dead company and Ghosn managed to unfuck it.
Once Nissan was unfucked, the japanese decided to try and take it back.
They failed.
>>
>>28960752
Ghosn temporarily unfucked it by cutting so much they were spending less on both quality and research and development, pushed CVTs in everything for fuel economy, and pushed rental fleet sales (keeps the lights on but makes no profit) and started allowing subprime loan financing to sell more cars. This tarnished Nissan's reputation forever because their transmissions don't last 100k anymore, they brought on the meme that they're exclusively owned by shit drivers who bought one because that was the only thing they could get financed on, and their shit in showrooms was 20 year old designs until the last few years. He might have gotten their finances to an okay place for a few years but did irreparable damage to the brand in the process that they're having a very hard time climbing back out of.

Maybe in the US, sure.
The first world though has no issues with current nissans.
In any case, the company was finished without Renault and Ghosn.
>>
i work on my neighbor's frontier sometimes and people say this shit is like toyota adjacent
but i have a tacoma and work on it a lot
nissans are treated like shit, have plastics and paint that age like shit
and stuff just breaks on them
everything has a feel to it that i cannot describe, there were costs cut for sure

maybe nissans are decent when new but i am of the firm belief that toyotas are better by a lot
>>
>>28960874
This, you gotta be the dark as fuck to tear up a Japanese car.
>>
>>28960917
The crazy thing is they all just copy each others homework and buy from the same suppliers, normshitters aren't even equipped to analyze the differences of any vehicle they're purchasing. They're not analyzing bore surface finishes of engines, bearing clearances, or anything the manufacturer actually cares about they're judging the paint and interior trim.
>>
>>28960919
Jatco CVTs can't hold up to wypipo driving them either
>>
>>28960917
It's a huge lie to tell people all japanese cars are the same
Aging is the ultimate test of a vehicle
They all drive similar enough when brand new
>>
>>28960925
Whatever helps you sleep at night nigger, buy a Mercedes/BMW/Dodge/tesla they can withstand your jungle wrath for much longer
>>
>>28960930
Where is this meme you're forcing that Nissan CVTs aren't utter shit coming from? Post your toolbox
>>
>>28960874
Nissan needed a lifeline and france thought it could trjan horse their way into owning a Japanese company while flaunting Japanese laws meant to keep forgeiners from owning Japanese companies. Ghosn was a scion of Gen X yuppie business in which everything was sacrificed in the short term to keep the company in the black, but the reputation Al damage ruined the brand. The most interesting part is how the French government then attempted to gain control over the renalt/nissan partnership by increasing their control over Renault, and how litterally right after than Ghosn suddenly got arrested for crimes that other nissan execs where doing at the time.

He did the awful things that have to be done sometimes to keep a business afloat, honestly I do give him props for that, it's a pity about the rest

Nissan is called the 90s era Dodge of Japan, so make of that what you will.

>>28958768
Nissans are just renaults cosplaying as japanese cars nowadays

have you considered why nissan has always been the troubled bastard child of the japan autos in modern times

they killed the RB, one of the most bulletproof engines ever made, and replaced with a gay v6.

It works well and doesn't eat oil but I still have that nagging worry about the motor just exploding for no reason.
I blame Carlos Ghosn.
>>
>>28958768
I'm excited for their new gen of cars that include EREVs. I think EREVs will be hard to fuck up, should be reliable. We'll see how the new rogue does but an EREV Xterra would by my next car in 4-5 years
