 I purchased the first Armada in Illinois and have experienced the "first-run syndrome".  After fighting with my dealership over floormats, Nissan stepped in and got me the mats gratis.  Nissan has a serious issue with the rotors on this "beast" as they warp every 20K- 25K miles.  Nissan is aware of the poor materials and is looking into a new manufacturer.  Nissan is gladly replacing all rotors and pads when they warp due to the excessive heat produced by the large vehicle.  Overall I enjoy the Armada and am happy with it.  I can't complain about gas milage since I was aware the Full size SUVs have poor MPG. However..we actually got 24MPG driving to Naples, FL this winter!!!
