lemons exists everywhere. Porsche, Honda, Nissan etc. some manufacturer makes less, some make more (Proton)

Tan Choong has shown in the past they don't handle lemons well. Likewise with Honda Malaysia.. just google some history of previous owners in the past.

The only thing you can do is make use of the warranty. If you got the time and money you can get lawyers.

As you see, Every car manufacture has its own production or manufacture defects once in awhile. We can't just blame everything based on nissan only. If you find that your car or vehicle got problem, why not bring back to the SC and have a check before the warranty void? that's the question.

We as customer should be aware of the 3 years or 100k Warranty, Sometimes we just can't argue with the black and white thingy, just my 2cents. Besides that, based from my experience, sylphy is a decent and quiet car though yet fuel efficient among the category its in.

One of my friends has a Sylphy, bought new last year. Actually not bad, pretty comfy & quiet, decent performance, and no complain so far. The dash and the door panels are also wrapped in some synth leather materials so does not feel as cheap looking as other Japanese sedans in it's class which just use plastics.

Can recomment the shop ??
would like to say hai to all the zerotohundred members since i'm one of the new join in babies in the forum today. :proud: .Knowing that lots of Sylphy car owner facing the caliper problems like me as well, here to share some effective solution where i had done. I went to a shop in Seri Kembangan, Selangor where near by my house 3 months ago to change my four tyres,after that i just share experience with the shop's boss regarding the caliper stuff that had been putting me in a very headache situation since i got my car on August 2008. Had sent to Nissan so many time for this problems in fact they had changed 2 sets for me, but still cant solve my problem......The tyres shop boss told me to give him a chance to fix the problem, i agreed, i leave my car to him for 1 day and he really help me to solve the problem with only RM 200 charges!!!so thank you!!!and i've been using the after modified caliper untill now still in very satisfied condition.
Just to share this with all the Sylphy owner if u interested in fixing the problem, may send me PM then i can introduce u to that shop.
P/S: 1).They not fixing your problem by putting lot of grease at the caliper pins like what Tan Cheong did before.
2). Have to leave ur car 1 day for them to fix the problem.
