2008 Nissan Armada UNKNOWN OR OTHER

OUR 2008 NISSAN ARMADA LE CENTER OVERHEAD CONSOLE FELL FROM THE ROOF OF THE VEHICLE WHILE PARKED. I CAME AND LOOKED TO SEE IT BROKE IN HALF LYING IN THE SEATS, WIRES HANGING. IF YOU LOOK, YOU WILL SEE THERE ARE NUMEROUS INCIDENTS OF THESE CONSOLES FALLING OUT OF THE ROOF. THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE PART. THERE HAS TO BE A DEFECT WITH THE WEIGHT OF THIS PART AND THE SCREWS THAT SHOULD BE ABLE TO HOLD THIS UP. THE PLASTIC CRUMBLED UP AROUND THE SCREWS. NISSAN SHOULD REPLACE THE FAULTY PART!!

THE REAR OVERHEAD CONSOLE BROKE OFF. LUCKILY IT DID NOT OCCUR WHILE WE WERE DRIVING AS IT WOULD HAVE STARTLED US GREATLY AND AN ACCIDENT COULD HAVE EASILY OCCURRED. ALSO IT IS RIGHT ABOVE WHERE MY CHILDREN SIT AND COULD HAVE CAUSED HARM TO THEIR HEAD, NECK OR EYE WHICH ARE ALL VERY CRITICAL AREAS OF THE BODY ESPECIALLY FOR A DEVELOPING CHILD.

OVERHEAD CONSOLE COLLAPSED DURING CRASH.

OVERHEAD CONSOLE IN THE BACK AND FRONT HAVE CRACKED AND BROKE. WENT OUT TO MY CAR TODAY TO SEE THE FRONT PIECE JUST HANGING DOWN. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS I HAVE 4 SMALL KIDS THAT ARE USUALLY RIDING BACK THERE.

NISSAN ARMADA 2008: WENT OUT TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF MY TRUCK, FOUND THE WHOLE CENTER ROOF PANEL DOWN HANGING ON BY WIRING. SINCE IT WAS THE HOLIDAY I CALLED NISSAN DEALERSHIP THE FOLLOWING DAY FOR REPLACEMENT PART. I WAS GIVEN COST $2600.00. I TRIED JUST GETTING PLASTIC SHELL, BUT TOLD PLASTIC SHELL ISN'T SOLD SEPARATE. THIS PART WAS MADE WITH A CHEAP PLASTIC CLAMPS THAT BROKE WITH SCREWS STILL IN PLACE.

THE OVERHEAD CONSOLE SUDDENLY FELL DOWN.

TODAY I NOTICED A CRACK IN MY OVERHEAD CONSOLE. MY INTENTIONS WERE TO TAKE IT TO A NISSAN DEALER AFTER I GOT OFF FROM WORK. I WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET AS I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK. I STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT. ONCE THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN AND I BEGAN TO DRIVE, THE NEXT THINK I KNOW MY ENTIRE CONSOLE FALLS NEARLY HITTING ME IN THE FACE. IT WAS A SUNNY DAY, NO SPEED BUMPS OR ABNORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS WERE INVOLVED.

WHEN ENTERING INTO THE VEHICLE WE NOTICED THE FRONT PORTION OF THE CENTER OVERHEAD CONSOLE WAS SAGGING. WE OPENED THE FIRST COMPARTMENT AND THE PIECE IN WHICH THE SCREW IS PLACED INTO TO CONNECT THE CONSOLE TO THE ROOF OF THE VEHICLE CRACKED OFF AND HAD FALLEN OFF CAUSING THE CONSOLE TO LONGER BE CONNECTED. HAD THIS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING, IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

AS I WAS DRIVING, THE ENTIRE MOLDING AROUND THE DVD PLAYER, BACKSEAT AIR CONTROLS, AND LIGHT FIXTURES CAME CRASHING DOWN. PIECES OF THE MOLDING FLEW EVERYWHERE. *TR
