So, big thanks to all 73 of you that took our oil overheating survey... here are the results... some observations:

- owners with automatic transmissions are 85% more likely to say "all is good"
- owners that track their car are 2.5x as likely to experience temps over 260F, and 8x as likely to hit limp mode
- yet still, we registered almost 1 in 10 hitting limp mode only on the street, and 1 in 3 only on the street reporting temps above 260F



In case you're wondering what "average disposition to nissan" means... that was the question where we asked: "TO WHAT EXTENT DO YOU AGREE WITH THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT: Nissan has failed to properly engineer this vehicle and it does not meet my expectations due to the oil overheating issue. Nissan should take immediate action to correct the situation."

'5' means "strongly agree"... a '1' means strongly disagree... this is the average score for each group
