| 116000 mi | Car could use new front wheel bearings as it was again getting a bit louder while driving. I would suggest trying SKF as the Timkens didn't seem to hold up very well even though they were known to be a good brand. Drove/felt OK, but noisy. |

Front and rear suspension bushings were very worn. Also, a front wheel bearing was very noisy. Nissan Canada offered to replace the wheel bearing free of charge ($400 parts and labor) even though the car is way out of warranty. |
