Replying to: paisan (Oct 21, 2007 5:43 pm) To all who have had problems with the Armada stalling and losing power, you also cant accelerate, my dealer is very good and helpful and after many weeks in the shop we think we conquered it. We worked through the main airflow filter down to the catalytic converter, inbetween also the airflow manifold also was replaced all seems well now , the mechanic kept the car and kept driving it each time it happened he put it on the computer and fixed the problem that came up reset the computer and drove it again.

Replying to: kap78 (Jan 23, 2008 2:57 pm) To all who read that we have found the answer to the stalling and loss of power problem we have had a reoccurrence and the Armada is back in the shop, the head mechanic who is supposed to be one of the top ones on the east coast said if i cant find the answer Nissan Headquarters will be contacted. I will keep you updated. Replies to this message: ianppk (Feb 25, 2008 1:41 pm) ianppk (Feb 25, 2008 6:48 pm) momof4now (Mar 02, 2008 8:04 am)
#581 of 656 Lights flashing On Armada 04 by daculataz Jan 26, 2008 (4:25 pm)
I have a 04 Armada that after you have stopped and taken the keys out and have left the car, it will flash the lights, blow the horn and lock the doors on its own. It will repeat this every 15 to 30 minutes. Sooner or later it will quit, but will start back up later. It also does it when you are driving sometime. I wanted to see if anyone has run into this problem? Replies to this message: paisan (Jan 26, 2008 4:45 pm)

#583 of 656 Love the 2008 Armada... BUT !!!!!!!!!! by steveo1515 Feb 11, 2008 (3:50 pm)
My question to you guys is I am in the market for A new large SUV & I love the 2008 Armada, but from what I read like Consumer Reports, J.D. Powers and most of the unbias consumer mags. They rip on the Armada like no other large SUV on the market. I have owned several Nissans & they have all been great cars. Is the Armada that bad of A SUV ? Would it be throwing good money away if I purchased one? If they are such A bad SUV why has Nissan not done A better job in their large SUV segment and fix the problems. I don't know, I want the new 2008 Armada but I am very worried that it's A very large piece of JUNK!!!! What should I do? Thanks guys, Steveo1515 Replies to this message: brad701 (Feb 11, 2008 4:57 pm) paisan (Feb 11, 2008 7:14 pm)

Replying to: steveo1515 (Feb 11, 2008 3:50 pm) Take a look at the 2008 Consumer Reports Buying Guide and you will see a huge improvement in the frequency of repair history for the '06 Armada versus the two earlier years. Granted in '06 there was still lots of room for improvement, but if you read the posts here from owners of '07's and '08's there seems to be a clear trend towards improvement. CR has continued to predict low reliability ratings because of all the disappointing past experiences, because that's all the data they had when they tabulated the results recently published. Sounds to me like Nissan is on the right track, but if having a problem free vehicle is your highest concern, this may not be the truck for you. I still don't think you can buy one today and expect a completely problem free vehicle. But will the issues be as severe as they were in '04 and '05, not likely. If you really love the truck, I would suggest it's now worth a look, keeping in mind that the truck may still not yet be bulletproof. Five months ago I bought a new QX56 (Infiniti's sister to the Armada) and I've had no trouble at all, perhaps I've been lucky. Replies to this message: paisan (Feb 11, 2008 7:14 pm)

Replying to: brad701 (Feb 11, 2008 4:57 pm) My 04 has been nearly trouble free (had to tighten a sway bar, and had the brake upgrades done by nissan, both covered under warranty). For the $ you aren't going to find a more comfortable, capable vehicle. As with any vehicle there will be bad ones and good ones. Just the luck of the draw. I haven't heard any catch fire like the new GM SUVs I heard on the news last night. I tow 10,000lb High Performance Boat with mine and it tows it well and gets 10.5mpg at 65mph on the highway. Not too shabby if you ask me. -mike Motorsports and Modifications Host
#586 of 656 From--- I love the 2008 Armada BUT by steveo1515 Feb 13, 2008 (3:21 pm)
Thanks guys for you quick reply to my many questions, about negutave reviews on the 2008 Armada. Your answers have help me and my wife on this subject. But when spending very close to 50K I want to make A good and wise choice. If anyone else wants to reply I would like to here what you guys think. Also would the extra money for the Inf. QX56 be the better choice???????????? Thanks Again, Steveo1515 Replies to this message: paisan (Feb 13, 2008 3:30 pm) keg97 (Feb 26, 2008 2:03 pm)

Replying to: steveo1515 (Feb 13, 2008 3:21 pm) Having gone through the numbers. It looks like the QX56 for 08 is a bit more expensive, and only gets HID headlights (you could get them for the Armada for about $135 on Amazon) a different look, painted roof rails, Infinity dealer service (loaner cars?), adaptive cruise control?, and perhaps 2nd row heated/cooled seats? I don't think the few things available on the QX56 that aren't available on the Armada are worth the extra $$$$$. -mike Motorsports and Modifications Host
