All depends if someone was renting it and had a couple of flat tires then they will put on the cheapest tires they can.

I had a 17 Camry that had at least ten dents and scratches, stains on the seat, and expired Ohio plates to boot (I didn’t know which sticker meant the year until it was too late to return the car) at Louisville International back in May. I’m in disbelief they would actually keep that thing in rotation.

Did you rent from Budget? I've been getting extremely beat up cars from Budget over the past few years. Much more so than any other rental car company. Starting to choose other rental car companies due to this.

Nissans CVTs have proven to be quite problematic in some models, sometimes even at extraordinarily low mileage

An online search of reported problems will easily confirm this.

My friend has a 2015 Sentra never had a problem with the transmission and if they were that bad why is the Nissan Rogue the number 2 best selling CUV in the country.

Glad your friend has been happy with his Sentra...I would like to know how happy he is when he goes to trade it and realizes the horrible depreciation in comparison to a Civic or Corolla.

A ton of people still associate Nissan with the quality of the vehicles they were making 20 years ago. Average car buyers see a Japanese nameplate and jjst assume it's reliable and don't research beyond the features they have interest in.

The Rogue is number two because of the reasons above and it being relatively inexpensive for the segment.

Cheap always comes with a price.

If you say so and by the way he is leasing it so no losing money so what else you got to say, and the reason they are number 2 in the CUV is because they are a nice vehicle have you ever thought of that. Have you ever had a Nissan or are you one of those people who read it on the web so it must be true.

The Nissans of the old days is dead and gone unfortunately. Their quality has gone to the crapper since Renault got involved.

You seem to always show up with your CVT rant right around the 4th post. Listen, nobody cares anymore. The car is fine.
