Stupid move by NY! Not surprised though. When was the last time the Government did something right? Nissan cars are a POS. Look forward to oil consumption, tire wear issues, failing window motors, sun roof flying off, squealing brakes, plastic valve-covers warping and horrible tread wear.
A car being driven thousands of miles a day in heavy traffic. And they went with a Nissan? LOL

The fact that they are using Nissans alone I will never take a cab in the near future in NYC...
I would rather be driven in a garbage can full of dog shit than in a pos Nissan.
those taxis will have 400 TSB. the rear panel will rattle through out the whole ride, better bring your mp3 player.
careful not to touch the sunroof! it might blow off on the highway!
