    No mods whatsoever!
    After hearing all of the recall notices that the media thrives on and with co-workers now telling me that my truck has been added to the list, it gets worse.
    I get my mail yesterday and I see a letter with TOYOTA RECALL NOTICE in big bold red letters above my address. Naturally, I think they want me to bring my truck in for new floor mats or gas pedal replacement. Wrong!!
    A reputable Nissan dealer in West Palm Beach has joined forces with General Motors and Ford. To paraphrase the letter, it basically states to NOT drive your unsafe vehicle another day while waiting for a correction remedy. Due to the unprecedented steps that Toyota has taken in recalling over 3.5 million vehicles. Nissan will make up to 3 payments and give you a $1000.00 dollars trade assistance.
    I have now heard that it made the local news when residents began opening their mail in sheer panic. Apparently, this is legal. So to Nissan Headquarters, I say F.U. !!!!

    how long do you think it would take a dealership to call the law if you stood at their front door and told each potential customer how much the vehicles being sold there sucked

    im down, we should start a forum wide movement? camp out in front of Nissan or GM, set up some lawn chairs, and hold up posters saying "Do Not Risk Purchasing A Vehicle That Will Put Your Family's Life In Danger!"

    Put an ad in the paper or online saying Don't buy a Frontier, they have wiggly seats that randomly move! (according to a frontier website). See what the dealerships have to say about that.

    here in Minnesota they even got onto the radio, telling everyone to trade their Toyota in for a Nissan! lol its funny cause in the beginning of their advertisement, they make it sound as it was a Toyota warning Recall and that Toyota made the advertise.

    I would only go with Nissan if they would of made a USDM R34 Skyline GTR. To bad I have to wait till' that car gets 25 years old or older to import it and make it legal.

    Anyways, sorry for jecking tht thread. Just got off work and need to vent a bit. haha

    F U NISSAN!
