While this is a real horror story for those who have the problem, you might want to try to determine what percent of buyers have the oil consumption problem before deciding not to buy one. I read about this problem shortly after I bought mine and was worried about it for a while, but mine hasn't burned a measurable amount of oil in 2,500 miles. I'd be furious if my car had been in the shop for a month (or even a couple weeks) out of the first year and I sure sympathize with those who have this problem, but it sounds like Nissan is at least doing something for them.

For what it's worth, my previous car was a Mazda Speed3 and there are even worse stories on the Speed3 boards. Enough that I would not have bought it if I had read them first. As it turned out I had no problems with mine even with a few mods.
