These are common bugs we have fixed We are still enjoying the rides AutoJoshNG:
A Nigerian whose moniker on Twitter is @Otunbakush1 listed twenty four (24) cars Nigerians “should never buy” because their problems can’t be fixed except when you take it back to the company.
In this post, we’re going to quote what he wrote on Twitter. He stated the problems the various cars came with.
NB: Please, what you’re about to read is the opinion of @Otunbakush on Twitter and not that of Autojosh.
Below are the 24 cars he listed and the reasons why you should never buy them.
1. Land Rover 3 (LR3):
First on the list of cars you should never buy is the LAND ROVER 3 (LR3), about 27million pieces was recalled months after production, and trust me millions Don enter 9ja.
It might look rugged but, the issues, Transmission, engines, brakes, electrical and so on, it’s can go off anytime on motion, and u will need a mechanic to open d engine right on the spot. The brakes ain’t trust worthy cos it fails anytime, oil leaking into the engine errors.
You will keep visiting the mechanic, and dey will keep collecting money from you, this errors can only be fixed by Landrover themselves, less I forget, d brake disk, and lining has sensors, and dey fail repeatedly, so u fit Match brake and ẹ no catch…you Don die be that.
2. 2015 Mercedes Benz C300:
No 2, Mercedes Benz C300 ( 2015)
All model of this car was recalled due to fire, you can park and it will still catch fire, u can be on motion and it will catch fire, reasons?, fuel leaking into d engine, no Nigerian mechanic can fix it, you have to return it back to d company.
3. 2005 Nissan Pathfinder:
No 3 Nissan Pathfinder 2005 Transmission problem, you can ask anybody using this car, dey have changed gear box like 1million times, major figures of this suv was recalled, failed alot of test, but still found its way to Nigeria, gear can hook OK motion and can lead to accident.
Airbag problem, you can be driving, if u enter big porthole, d airbags will activate and boom on ur face, almost all of this car accident is caused by the airbag pulling on drivers face, avoid it at all cost.
4. 2002/2003 Nissan Xterra:
No 4, Nissan Xterra 2002/2003 Run from this car, it was a test project before it was been released
Engine (60%) Transmission and Drivetrain (0%) Brakes and Traction Control (7%) Suspension and Steering (14%) Electrical and Air Conditioning (18%) Paint, Rust, Leaks, Rattles etc
You can speed to 100mph, at 70mph it starts shaking, at 80mph it shakes hard, at 100, accident, it will overturn by itself, if u no die, na God’s grace, if u die u go explain for heaven wetin kill you, avoid it.

Engine problem Fuel hose problem Now let’s focus on electrical problem, once the problem starts u will know, ur dashboard will be messed up, car won’t move again, now, it will affect d engine.
Since it’s electrical, it sends light back into d engine switch and damages d major part of it, u will need to replace that engine, now 9ja rewire go just do shady work, and dat thing will repeat itself…so don’t buy it.
8. Volkswagen Touareg:

The brake pads wear out easily.

mu2sa2: Unfortunately most naija people hardly do any research before buying used cars. A person would just tell a car dealer to get him a "neat, grade 1 tokumbo direct", without bothering to do even simple Vin check on the car. Even on YouTube you will see car gurus like scotty Kilmer giving useful car tips, but naija people wont give a damn. I know a man who bought Nissan Murano jeep and never enjoyed that car at all. I dont know the millions he wasted on the damn thing, but he wouldn't have bought it in the first place if he had done a little research. From the agony the man went through, I almost concluded that Nissan Murano must be among the worst cars ever made. Later I got to know that the issue with nissan murano had to do with the problematic CVT transmission. Infact because of the issue with the transmission nissan discontinued murano model, but people were ignorantly buying its tokumbo here as graded. You lied! Nissan never discontinued Murano.... you accused people of not doing research yet you’re guilty of it. I currently use a 2015 Nissan Murano with no issues, those issues were with old model Nissan Murano. You’re generalizing and misinforming the public. 19 Likes 3 Shares |

Not all Nissan Murano trims are configured with CVT transmission. Besides, most Nissan Rogues are configured with CVT transmission. Again, it has been discovered that most issue of CVT transmission is centered on the user. Most users operate the vehicles with CVT transmission as if they were driving vehicles that are configured with conventional automatic transmission. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Infact because of the issue with the transmission nissan discontinued murano model, but people were ignorantly buying its tokumbo here as graded. I own a Murano and have been using it for the past 6 years. Like you stated, the problem with the CVT is people using ordinary transmission oil. Murano uses NS2 Transmission oil which very much expensive and many people are ignorant of it or avoids it because of the cost. Once you maintain your gearbox with the right transmission oil, you have no problem. However, I heard from my mechanic some time that some people now change the gearbox with that of Nissan Maxima. 15 Likes 4 Shares |

You’re generalizing and misinforming the public. Bros, I guess mu2sa2 is a typical Nigerian in particular and African in general. They usually accuse others of the blunder they commit every day. Nissan did not recall any vehicle base on CVT transmission be it Murano, Rogue or Santra. When users adapt to the proper way to operate Nissan trims with CVT transmission, they tend to love it. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

AutoJoshNG:
A Nigerian whose moniker on Twitter is @Otunbakush1 listed twenty four (24) cars Nigerians “should never buy” because their problems can’t be fixed except when you take it back to the company.
In this post, we’re going to quote what he wrote on Twitter. He stated the problems the various cars came with.
NB: Please, what you’re about to read is the opinion of @Otunbakush on Twitter and not that of Autojosh.
Below are the 24 cars he listed and the reasons why you should never buy them.
1. Land Rover 3 (LR3):
First on the list of cars you should never buy is the LAND ROVER 3 (LR3), about 27million pieces was recalled months after production, and trust me millions Don enter 9ja.
It might look rugged but, the issues, Transmission, engines, brakes, electrical and so on, it’s can go off anytime on motion, and u will need a mechanic to open d engine right on the spot. The brakes ain’t trust worthy cos it fails anytime, oil leaking into the engine errors.
You will keep visiting the mechanic, and dey will keep collecting money from you, this errors can only be fixed by Landrover themselves, less I forget, d brake disk, and lining has sensors, and dey fail repeatedly, so u fit Match brake and ẹ no catch…you Don die be that.
2. 2015 Mercedes Benz C300:
No 2, Mercedes Benz C300 ( 2015)
All model of this car was recalled due to fire, you can park and it will still catch fire, u can be on motion and it will catch fire, reasons?, fuel leaking into d engine, no Nigerian mechanic can fix it, you have to return it back to d company.
3. 2005 Nissan Pathfinder:
No 3 Nissan Pathfinder 2005 Transmission problem, you can ask anybody using this car, dey have changed gear box like 1million times, major figures of this suv was recalled, failed alot of test, but still found its way to Nigeria, gear can hook OK motion and can lead to accident.
Airbag problem, you can be driving, if u enter big porthole, d airbags will activate and boom on ur face, almost all of this car accident is caused by the airbag pulling on drivers face, avoid it at all cost.
4. 2002/2003 Nissan Xterra:
No 4, Nissan Xterra 2002/2003 Run from this car, it was a test project before it was been released
Engine (60%) Transmission and Drivetrain (0%) Brakes and Traction Control (7%) Suspension and Steering (14%) Electrical and Air Conditioning (18%) Paint, Rust, Leaks, Rattles etc
You can speed to 100mph, at 70mph it starts shaking, at 80mph it shakes hard, at 100, accident, it will overturn by itself, if u no die, na God’s grace, if u die u go explain for heaven wetin kill you, avoid it.
5. Nissan Murano:
No 5 on the list of cars you should never buy, Nissan Murano…God of all problems, if u don’t wanna die from spending money, avoid it.

Airbag failure also Avoid d 2009 model.
7. 2010 BMW X6:
BMW X6 2010 MODEL BMW recalled all of this model, but they only got 30% of it.
Engine problem Fuel hose problem Now let’s focus on electrical problem, once the problem starts u will know, ur dashboard will be messed up, car won’t move again, now, it will affect d engine.
Since it’s electrical, it sends light back into d engine switch and damages d major part of it, u will need to replace that engine, now 9ja rewire go just do shady work, and dat thing will repeat itself…so don’t buy it.
8. Volkswagen Touareg:
Volks Touareg, this suv’s problem is legendary and it’s one of the top cars you should never buy, I will just outline d major ones,

problems with the 2008 CX-7’s Variable Valve Timing (VVT) & timing chain failing, causing major damage to the engine — Mazda uses an interference design so typically the valves are bent & the entire engine needs to be replaced.
The brake pads wear out easily.
19. 2002-2006 Nissan Altima:
Nissan Altima from 2002 till 2006 Avoid them, all of them na birds of the same feathers Engine failure Brake failure Top cylinders issue Crank shafts dey break and ẹ dey damage engine block Bad wiring

mu2sa2: The one you call old model is the trim discontinued. Will I now say you lied by saying they didn't discontinue anything? You will say you don’t know the right terminology to use. The brand or model called Nissan Murano is not discontinued. 1 Like |
