Well, this time it is about brakes and it is serious. Nissan has to recall 10,586 units of 2009 Sentra because the brake fluid may leak from the major cylinder. Although the cars have an indicator which will show the low amount of brake fluid in the cylinder, it might be too late... ed5e27eccb17551cf3c91b1263fae981 /Article/Nissan_Houston_energy_firm_team_up_on_car_charging_grid_detnews_com_The_Detroit_News/5885 Mon, 16 Nov 2009 07:55:32 GMT Nissan Motor Co. and electricity provider Reliant Energy of Houston have signed an agreement to team up to promote a charging infrastructure for electric cars. The partnership was announced at the American debut of Nissan's LEAF electric car at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.

During tests it has been discovered that "a screw in the steering gear housing cover may loosen over time and could fall out." If the screw comes out, the steering system will be out of control in case of large input on the steering which would lead to an accident. Nissan says that there have not been any problems reported on this matter.

Nissan Motor Co.'s environmentally friendly automobile -- a blue hatchback with a sporty design and a recharging opening in the front -- is set to go on sale in Japan, the U.S. and Europe next year.

The massive frame rails underpinning on this test vehicle and the heavy duty, eight-lug wheels show this is a serious commercial truck. This particular test car seems to be wearing at least some Armada sheet metal and probably does not represent the final design. The vents on the rear quarter panel also intrigue us.

At some point just about every kind of car is the unwilling recipient of Lambo doors, and the Nissan GT-R is no exception. German company LSD announced a new vertical door system to transform Nissan's supercar into a winged Godzilla, available for a mere 1,949 euro. The kit includes a guided roller system that connects to the stock mounting point and a buffer system to prevent the doors from being opened too wide or from dropping down.

Nissan's NuVu, or 'New View,' city car concept is just that. It may make you smile, laugh, do a double-take, shake your head, draw you in for a closer look, or all of the above. One thing you can't do, however, is ignore it. NuVu is nothing short of a complete rethinking of the car's role in an urban environment. It's not designed for highway use or cross-country travel, but rather just zipping around on congested city streets and squeezing into... 2e0af9143b6bbbf62358f83fa671cf92 /Article/Nissan_370Z_to_appear_at_MIMS/5274 Tue, 10 Feb 2009 08:19:04 GMT Nissan’s all-new 370Z will make its first Australian appearance at this year’s Melbourne International Motor Show.The first full redesign of the iconic Nissan Z since the 350Z arrived in 2003, the more aggressively cut 370Z features more prominent wheel arches, distinctive light clusters and is also shorter with its wheelbase shortened by 100 mm, wider and lower than its predecessor.

That's nothing new to Detroit. We've been chewing this entree for years, and we find little solace that the rest of the country finally gets a seat at our table. At least we have a country song written about us. There's always a silver lining -- even if it's a tarnished silver plated one. Optimism, you see, is free. The 2009 Nissan Maxima makes me optimistic.

Up until the GT-R arrived this year, and with the exception of the 370Z's predecessor, you've spent the last decade building modest SUVs, trucks, and sedans for the masses. Sure, there have been a few hot compacts in there, but your latest Sentra SE-Rs haven't exactly set the enthusiast world ablaze. Now it's all Porsche this, Nürburgring that. It's like we don't even know you anymore.

The most significant improvement concerns the GT-R's hand-built 3.8-litre V6 twin-turbo engine which has gained 5PS thanks to some fine tuning of its electronics, taking power output to 485PS, while torque remains unchanged at 588Nm.[source] 15b758a989a96a7d1be08e74031e74c2 /Article/Nismo_S_Tune_Pack_for_the_Nissan_370Z_official_information_pricing_and_photos/4570 Tue, 9 Dec 2008 06:02:13 GMT We know all of you are tired regarding the Nismo S-tune Package for the new Nissan 370 Z a.k.a.

I just don't know. Unlike the Porsche time, we have video evidence of Toshio Suzuki setting a 7:29.03sec lap and he is super-committed. In fact it's a brilliant piece of driving.
