#5127 of 8972 02 Maxima Paint by jim7689 Jul 12, 2002 (9:26 am)
I have an 01 Max. GLE, I had to have the hood repainted. The paint would chip like yours and then peel right off. They never did tell me why, they just called it a warranty claim.   Good Luck   Jim

Maxima spare tire - it's not full-size, but I believe there is enough space to put a full-size spare one. In Canada the spare is full-size.   Dealer tire installation - anoter alternative is to purchase the tires from tirerack, or any other discount place and then bring them to your dealer to install. I did this a couple of years ago, and my BMW dealer was very reasonable with the price of installation. In this way you ensure the job is done properly, yet you get the tires cheap.

I did not opt for the full size spare on my I35 because it ate up too much trunk space. The spare is one of those donut sized wheels .... did not want to suffer the humiliation of being seen driving around on one of those all weekend   .... the I35 is basically a GLE w/ a few extra bells and whistles.
#5130 of 8972 TRANSPORT CANADA HAD TO FORCE NISSAN by djp2c Jul 12, 2002 (6:33 pm)
I had to send a registered letter to Transport Canada to get Nissan to fix the hood bounce that I have.   They are fixing the problem in the U.S.A. but said they were not doing anything with the cars in Canada.   They are now?   I have lost all faith in Nissan and their dealers   Two recalls and the hood bounce is three visits. That is more than I had with my Ford Focus Wagon and it drives better than my 02 GLE   My next vehicle will be a Saturn

EKKK You have got to be kidding me. Focus drives better then a Maxima?!?!?!?!?!?! EEEEKKKKKKKKKKK The government issued numerous investigations for the ford focus! By the way...you live in Canada...the government doesn't do jack in that country...all they want is money money money...
#5132 of 8972 Hood bounce fix by oilers1 Jul 13, 2002 (10:31 am)
I don't think Transport Canada would care about hood bounce--this is not a safety issue, just an annoyance. My dealer fixed it for me, maybe you should have tried a different dealer or contacted Nissan directly. Saturn????!!!? You must not care about cars. jdog368, why don't you keep your opinions of our government to yourself. Speak about things you actually know something about.

Transport Canada phoned to say they were monitoring the Hood Bounce because it is distracting to drivers.   I had called Nissan Canada and they called back and said no action would be taken in Canada regarding this problem.   They did react after Transport Canada was contacted.   Please carefully read messages on this board as it will help you comprehend the disussion.

Why the hostility? No where in your post did you mention that you contacted Nissan directly. You stated that the dealers in Canada were not fixing this problem and I know that that is incorrect as my hood bounce was fixed.
