Nissan knows that even the most alert drivers can be caught off guard by a vehicle in their blind spot. That is why they have included the Blind Spot Warning System as one of the innovative new safety features in their Nissan Intelligent Safety Shield Technologies. This feature provides you with an extra set of eyes right where you need them, monitoring your blind spots and sending an audible warning if you begin moving over when there is a vehicle in your way. This technology is the theme of the latest advertisement that the brand has released which also features that all-new Nissan Maxima. In the spot, we see a man driving his Maxima around two while surrounded by a number of different vehicles that all seem to blend into their surroundings. However, he is able to easily spot and avoid them all because they are always in his direct line of vision. That is until one ends up in his blind spot just as he turns on his blinker and begins changing lanes. Thanks to the Blind Spot Warning System, however, he is alerted to the other vehicle and is thus able to avoid a possible collision. This technology is available on the Nissan Maxima, Altima, and Sentra and we have all three of these models available here at Loughead® Nissan where we serve customers from Swarthmore, Philadelphia, Drexel Hill, PA; Wilmington, DE; or Concordville, PA. So stop by and see us today for a test drive.

The 2016 Nissan Frontier has earned the top spot in the mid-size truck segment in the J.D. Power 2016 Initial Quality Study. This annual study was conducted from February through May of this year, during which, owners and lessees of new vehicles were asked to complete a survey that measured their satisfaction with their new vehicles after the first 90 days. More than 80,000 new owners participated in this year’s survey which included 233 questions broken up into eight different categories. “Earning the top spot among vehicles in the extremely competitive mid-size truck segment is an immense point of pride for us,” said Dan Mohnke, vice president, Chief Marketing Manager and Marketing Operations, Nissan North America, Inc. “For our brand to jump 10 spots in the industry is an amazing feat. This recognition is a testament to the incredibly skilled men and women at our manufacturing and engineering facilities around the world.” In addition to the Frontier being named as the top model in its segment the Nissan brand’s overall spot on the list improved by ten points placing it in 10th place overall and 6th place amongst non-premium brands.

The 2016 Nissan Maxima has been named to the top of the full-size car segment in the Strategic Vision Total Quality Impact (TQI) study. This vehicle earned an overall score of 720 out of 1,000 with specific recognition given to its NVH (noise, vibration and harshness), comfort, thoughtful engineering, workmanship, power and pickup, durability, safety, and style. This final total was noticeably higher than the segment average which is what earned it this top rating for the entire segment. "The 2016 Maxima, the flagship of our popular sedan lineup, sets the standard for style, performance and technology – all aspects that were acknowledged by the Maxima owners participating in the Strategic Vision TQI study," said Dan Mohnke, vice president, Nissan Chief Marketing Manager & Marketing Operations.
