NISSAN, I WANT 3 MINUTES OF MY LIFE BACK PLEASE!
i wish nissan would stop the magic tricks, gimmicky commercials, and all around stupidity(cars that honk when the air compressor pumped enough air)- and go back to making high quality cars at affordable prices.

While I can agree about the silly viral and gimmick adverts I can't agree with your take on the "Easy Fill Tire Alert". My wife has this on her new car and it is simply wonderful. The computer already has all the information necessary to make it happen, all it took was some programming. You just pull up at the air compressor, set the parking brake and start filling until you hear the horn. If you live in a place like STL, where the air temp swings back and forth 40 degrees on each side a freezing a few times a week, this really makes filling the tires (or deflating) extremely easy.
Really, try it.
Really, try it.
