2011 Nissan Maxima

My steering failed completely while driving, making it nearly impossible to turn.

Airbag warning came on. I took to dealership for diagnostic. There was malfunction with the passenger airbag. Seat coushin needed to be replaced so the “normal” wear and tear airbag would no longer be an issue. Nissan stated this is not a safety concern and all expenses were out of pocket.

The transmission is slipping it’s a cvt and they’re known for being the worst transmissions. I was entering the highway on a on ramp and I could no longer accelerate past 55 I was near flooring it and you can hear the engine working but the rpm’s are all over the odometer going from 3k-6.5k over and over. The problem has not been diagnosed professionally. The vehicle has not been inspected professionally.There were no lights on the dash when this began happening and nothing occurred that led up to that situation it was just a normal drive for me and now this happens every other day.

We are the original owners of a 2011 Nissan Maxima. The dashboard material is deteriorating, creating a sticky and shiny patch across the base of the windshield which is distracting and highly reflective creating glare from the sun and bright lights impeding the ability to safely drive. The dashboard is also cracking and releasing small parts of black dashboard material throughout the car and the passengers. Online research shows this problem has been reported by many Nissan vehicle owners, at our most recent Nissan service appointment, we asked for assistance to have the part replaced and was told we would have to call Nissan directly to request the repair as it was not a recall item. We called Nissan's Consumer Affairs and was told there is no support from Nissan to provide assistance and any repair we desired would be at our own cost. Additionally, in our online research there are pending class action lawsuits for this part to be replaced by the manufacturer. There is potential health hazards to the exposure of the deteriorating dashboard. We have NOT contacted our insurance company for a complaint or repair at this time. It was first noticed about 1 year ago while I was cleaning the car as the duster stuck to the dash in that area and we are now getting to the issue as it continues to further deteriorate.

Cvt transmission jerking , engine is always idling hard sometimes wants to even shut off , accelerating sometimes takes a lil while to respond , rack and pinion assembly faulty I would like for nissan to fix my car or get a lump sum check for all faulty errors these cars have

Dashboard is melting which is making it extremely sticky but the worst part is that it is causing a visibility issues while driving. The glare is really bad.

Hi I bought car Nissan maxima 2011 transmission not working well when I driving I stopped at the traffic after that car does not move forward

Passenger seat airbag sensor has failed

My dashboard has been melted for some time now and it’s a safety hazard. When I drive at night, the light reflects on the dashboard and it makes it difficult to see, which is very dangerous with my kids in the car. I thought I could clean the dashboard but it’s very sticky. Apparently this is a common issue with certain models of cars because I saw a news report on it.

Transmission failed on my vehicle at 40,000 miles while I was in the middle of traffic. My car stopped accelerating without warning and I nearly got into an accident

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS MELTING. COASTAL NISSAN (8519 OCEAN HWY, PAWLEYS ISLAND, SC 29585) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INSPECTED THE VEHICLE BUT OFFERED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OVER THE WARRANTY COVERAGE. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,376.

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING, BECOMING STICKY AND EMITTING TERRIBLE ODOR; SURELY THAT IS PROBABLY HAZARDOUS TO HEALTH AS IT IS A SICKENING SMELL. WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED AS IT IS AN ODOR THAT IN UNBEARABLE FOR DRIVING LONG DISTANCE.

ON THE NIGHT OF FEBRUARY 16, MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING MY 2011 NISSAN MAXIMA WHEN SHE CAME TO A STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN, SHE MOVED HER FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND BEGAN TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN WOULD NOT MOVE. SHE APPLIED HER FOOT TO THE ACCELERATOR SEVERAL TIMES BUT THE VEHICLE STILL WOULD NOT MOVE. AFTER SEVERAL MORE ATTEMPTS, THE VEHICLE JERKED FORWARD IN A VIOLENT MANNER BUT LUCKILY, THERE WAS NO OTHER CAR AHEAD OF HER OR I'M AFRAID A MORE SERIOUS EVENT WOULD HAVE OCCURRED. THIS ALL HAPPENED RATHER ABRUPTLY, WITHOUT ANY ADVANCE WARNING OR INDICATION OF A POTENTIAL PROBLEM. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL NISSAN SERVICE CENTER TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSED. THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED ME A CODE INDICATED 'TRANSMISSION FLUID PRESSURE LOW' (EVEN THOUGH IT CONTAINED PLENTY OF FLUID) AND ADVISED A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT WAS NEEDED AT A COST OF $7,138. THIS WAS THE DIAGNOSIS DESPITE NO DASHBOARD WARNING OR SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT INDICATOR, AS I INDICATED ABOVE. UPON RETURNING HOME AND RESEARCHING THE ISSUE ONLINE, I DISCOVERED THAT THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE VERY COMMON. I LEARNED THAT NISSAN HAS HAD MAJOR ISSUES WITH THE CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT), INCLUDING SEVERAL CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS AND OTHER LEGAL MATTERS WHICH SUBSEQUENTLY RESULTED IN NISSAN EXTENDING THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY ON 2003-2010 NISSAN VEHICLES AND SETTLING OTHER LAWSUITS FOR NEWER MODEL VEHICLES. HOWEVER, MODEL YEARS 2011 AND 2012 WERE NOT

MY CAR IS VERY RELIABLE UNTIL NOW WITH ONLY 105,000 MILES? MY PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT SEPTEMBER 2020 WHEN I STARTED TO HEAR MY CAR MAKE A ROUGH SOUND SUDDENLY, LIKE A WINDING NOISE WHEN I ACCELERATE AND WHEN I LET OFF THE GAS AS WELL. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT UNTIL I TOOK IT TO A NISSAN DEALER TO HAVE THEM CHECK IT OUT. THEY CALLED ME THE NEXT DAY TELL ME I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND ITS GOING TO BE AROUND $5,500. WHICH I DON'T HAVE ESPECIALLY IN THIS PANDEMIC. ALSO THEY TOLD ME IF I GET THE NEW TRANSMISSION IT ONLY COMES WITH 1 YEAR WARRANTY. NISSAN ONLY COVERS IT UNTIL 60,000 MILES WHICH I DON'T BELIEVE PEOPLE BUYING A NEW NISSAN EXPECT IT TO GO FURTHER THEN THAT! MY ISSUE IS THAT NISSAN IS PUTTING IN THESE FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS KNOWING THAT IT WILL FAIL SOON AND ONLY GIVE YOU 1 YEAR WARRANTY IF YOU DO REPLACE IT AFTER PAY 5,500?

MY CAR HAS LESS THAN 113,500 MILES AND STARTED LOSING POWER AND COASTING, THE SPEED WOULD FLUCTUATE AND SOMETHING SOUNDS LOOSE IN THE ENGINE. I TOOK IT TO LITHIA NISSAN IN FRESNO CA ON BLACKSTONE AND THEY TOLD ME THE CVT BELT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED THEREBY CAUSING THE CAR TO NEED A WHOLE NEW TRANSMISSION AT $5738.96. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION.

THIS IS MY THIRD NISSAN MAXIMA AND THEY ALL HAD THE SAME IDSUE WITH THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR. SET OFF CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND MAKES CAR HESITATE WHEN ACCERLERATING. MY MOM OWNS A 2013 MAXIMA 45000 MILES AND HAS THE SAME ISSUE WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT.

IT'S HOT IN FLORIDA AND MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING

I NOTICED THE CAMERA NOT WORKING WHEN I WAS BACKING INTO MY GARAGE AFTER WORK. THEN AGAIN THE NEXT DAY WHEN I WAS BACKING INTO MY PARKING SPACE AT WORK. IT COMES AND GO NOW. I'M NOT SURE WHY IT STARTED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LANDERA NISSAN DEALER, LOCATED AT: 371 E. GOODMAN RD, SOUTH HAVEN, MS 38671 WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE CANNON NISSAN OF BLYTHEVILLE DEALER, LOCATED AT: 305 N SERVICE RD, BLYTHEVILLE, AR 72315, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE PASSENGER OCCUPANT SENSOR FAILED, I WAS IN A AUTO ACCIDENT THAT REQUIRED MY FRONT BUMPER, AC CONDESOR AND RADIATOR TO BR REPLACED. AFTER GETTING IT FIXED I NOTICED MY SEATBELT LIGHT WAS BLINKING, I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WOULD GO AWAY. I GOT IT SCANNED TURNS OUT THE PASSENGER OCCUPANT SENSOR WENT OUT AND CAUSED ALL THE AIRBAGS TO TURN OFF.

TRANSMISSION BELT DISINTEGRATED. LOTS OF POWER IN DRIVE. SHAKING, HESITATING WHEN DRIVING. FINALLY WOULD BARELY MOVE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, MY TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY STARTED SLIPPING OUT OF GEAR. THIS CAUSED THE CAR TO SUDDENLY SLOW, ALMOST BEING REAR ENDED BY THE CAR BEHIND ME. NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT THESE PROBLEMS, BUT REFUSES TO FIX ALL OF THEM. THEY HAVE SETTLED THOUSANDS OF CLAIMS OUT OF COURT FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY STILL CLAIM THEIR CVTS TRANSMISSION IS NOT DEFECTIVE.

MY DASH HAS BEEN STARTING TO MELT THE LAST TWO YEARS AND NOW THE SHINE FROM THE MELTING DASH ON THE WINDSHIELD MAKES IT VERY HARD TO SEE THUR WINDSHIELD WITH THE SHINE THAT IS ON IT

DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 65 MPH AROUND 7:00 AM, THE CAR STARTED TO SHAKE AND WAS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL, THEN STOPPED SHAKING AND THE TIRE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS ABLE TO GET VEHICLE TO DISCOUNT TIRE. TIRE WAS SHREDDED AND REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. TIRE WAS THE PIRELLI CINTURATO STRADA AS 245/45 R18 100V

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING. IT'S EXTREMELY STICKY AND I IF I TOUCH IT, OR PUT SOMETHING ON IT, BLACK STUFF GETS EVERYWHERE. *TR

THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG (OFF) LIGHT STAYS LIT ON THE PASSENGER DASH, EVEN WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT IN THE SEAT, AND A SEPARATE ONE IS ON THE DRIVER'S DASH PANEL. WAS TOLD IT PROBABLY WAS A SENSOR IN THE SEAT AND WOULD COST ABOUT $1600. IT STAYS LIKE THAT AND NEVER CHANGES. NISSAN WANTS MONEY JUST TO TAKE A LOOK.

THE DASH BOARD IS MELTING DOWN AND WHEN THE SUN HITS THE STICKY DASH BOARD IT CAUSES A GLARE IN THE WINDSHIELD TO WHERE IT MAKES IT HARD FOR YOU TO SEE.

TRASMITION

WHEN LOCKING AND UNLOCKING DOORS, THE DRIVERS DOOR IS NOT RESPONDING FROM THE REMOTE, SAME EXACT THING ON MY MURANO, AND THEN EFFECTING THE FUEL DOOR CAP.

TAKATA RECALL STEERING WHEEL LOCK MECHANISM WILL NOT LET ME START CAR AFTER BUYING NUMEROUS PARTS

I WAS DRIVING DOWN 240 IN MEMPHIS AND MY SUN ROOF EXPLODED . IT'S THE PANORAMA SUNROOF. I WASN'T NEAR AN OVER PASS OR NEAR ANYTHING THAT COULD HAVE HIT IT . IT WAS EXTREMELY LOUD. IT SOUNDED LIKE A SHOT GUN BLAST OR SOMETHING . I SWERVED AND ALMOST WRECKED BUT THANKFULLY DID NOT . I HAVE DONE RESEARCH AND SEEN WHERE OVER A HUNDRED PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED OF THE SAME THING HAPPENING WITH THEIR NISSANS AND APPARENTLY IT'S BECAUSE OF THE TEMPERED GLASS THEY USE AND THE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN MAXIMA. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE SUN ROOF EXPLODED WITHOUT WARNING OR AN IMPACT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SANDY SANSING NISSAN (LOCATED AT 5705 PENSACOLA BLVD, PENSACOLA, FL 32505, (850) 479-4700), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

MY BRAKE LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHT COME ON AT THE SAME TIME. MY WENT DEAD IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN. I REPLACED THE BATTERY. HAD THE ALTERNATOR CHECKED. WAS TOLD IT WAS FINE. AFTER A NEW BATTERY MY CAR RUNS FINE BUT LOSES POWER AND HESITATES LIKE ITS GOING TO STALL FROM TAKE OFF OR ENTERING A TURN AND MY BRAKE AND BATTERY ARE STILL COMING ON AT THE SAME TIME. I GOOGLED THE ISSUE AND IT APPEARS BE A LONG STANDING ISSUE NO REAL RESOLUTION. I TOOK IT TO AUTOZONE THEY DID DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND I GOT CODE P0011 THE SAME ONE I PAID TO BE REPAIRED PREVIOUSLY.

MY TRANSMISSION MESSED UP ON ME WITH 114,000 MILES! BRAND NEW ALMOST AND WHEN IT WOULD GO OVER 45 IT WON'T CATCH MY GEARS THE RPM WOULD GO STAY PUT AND MAKE A LOUD WHINING NOISE!!

MY DESKTOP IN MY CAR WERE GETTING STICKY SO I CALL ALEXANDRIA LA DEALER AND TOLD MY PROBLEM BUT THEY NEVER RESPONDED AND NOW IT'S GETTING CRACKED SO I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY ALSO TOLD ME THEY CAN NOT FIX IT BECAUSE SEVEN YEAR OF MY CAR.WHEN I HAD SAME ISSUE WITH MY TOYOTA SIENNA 2008 AFTER 8 YEARS THEY DID REPLACE NEW DESKTOP FREE OF CHARGE. SO PLEASE CAN YOU LOOK IN TO IT AND FIX IT.

BROUGHT VEHICLE TO REPAIR SHOP BECAUSE OF NOISE. REPAIR SHOP INFORMED ME THAT NOISE COMES FROM TRANSMISSION. DID SOME INVESTIGATION AND FOUND THAT NISSAN HAS HAD ISSUES WITH THESE CVT TRANSMISSIONS. NISSAN HAD A RECALL FOR ALL YEARS UNTIL 2010 INCLUDING 2010. NOT 2011. THIS IS THE SAME TRANSMISSION THAT FAILS PREMATURELY. I CALLED THE DEALER $145 DIAGNOSTIC. NO GUARANTEES THAT NISSAN WILL PROVIDE "GOODWILL ASSISTANCE" . WHY DID RECALL STOP IN 2010?

ON MY WAY TO WORK AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY MY 2011 NISSAN MAXIMA ALL OF THE SUDDEN WOULD NO LONGER SPEED UP. THE VEHICLE WAS ON AND AS I TRIED TO ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE SPEEDOMETER WENT TO 0 MPH BUT THE RPM WOULD CLIMB. I LUCKILY WAS ABLE TO STEER THE CAR INTO AN EMPTY PARKING LOT. MY CAR HAD NO CHECK ENGINE/SERVICE ENGINE LIGHTS ON. THERE WERE NO WARNINGS. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE SPEED SENSOR DUE TO THE ORIGINAL DIAGNOSTIC CODE OF P0500 AND TRIED REPLACEMENT BUT THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE. MY VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHO SAID IT WAS SHOWING 'PAGES FULL OF CODES' AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED AND THAT 'IT JUST HAPPENS.' PRIOR TO THIS TOTAL FAILURE I EXPERIENCED ABSOLUTELY ZERO SIGNS OF TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS (CHECK ENGINE/SERVICE ENGINE SOON), NO SLIPPING/JERKING, LEAKING, NOTHING AT ALL. AFTER RESEARCHING THE POTENTIAL CAUSE OF TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN MY MAKE/MODEL/YEAR VEHICLE I FOUND THERE WERE MANY 2011 OWNERS WHO WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE, TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE WITHOUT WARNING.

TAKATA RECALL. AFTER BEING TOLD A PART ON MY TRANSMISSION WAS BROKEN I IMMEDIATELY GOT IT FIXED. WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR WOULD REV TO HIGH RPM ON ITS OWN. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC. THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A WHOLE NEW TRANSMISSION THAT IS ON BACK ORDER BY NISSAN. IT'S BEEN A MONTH WITHOUT MY CAR AND TRANSMISSION ISN'T RECALLED EVEN AFTER BEING ON BACK ORDER. MY MAXIMA HAS ONLY 90000 MILES AND THIS SHOULDN'T BE AN ISSUE FOR A NEWER 2011 MAXIMA. I JUST WANT TO PREVENT ANYONE ELSE FROM BEING TRICKED INTO PURCHASING A CAR WITH A FAULTY TRANSMISSION WITHOUT KNOWING IT'S ISSUES. NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!

TAKATA RECALL. AT 80K MILES MY VEHICLE IS IDLING WHILE IN PARK AND ALSO WHILE ACCELERATING ITS DOING A JERK AND FEELS AS IF IT DOESN'T WANT TO GO INTO GEAR TO REACH HIGHER SPEED. I CHECKED THE CODE AND IT READ AS A AIR MASS FLOW SENSOR, CATALYST CONVERTER, AND O2 SENSOR. THE CAR TURNED OFF ON ME WHILE ON, JUMP STARTED IT AND TURNED BACK ON. I CHANGED THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR AND ITS STILL DOING THE SAME THING. I TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND THE MECHANIC SAID THE CODE SAYS BATTERY AND OTHER THINGS. RECCOMMENDED WE START CHEAP BY CHANGING THE BATTERY AND GOING FROM THERE. I CHANGED THE BATTERY AND THE COMPUTER NOW SAYS O2 SENSOR. I KEEP DUMPING ALOT OF MONEY INTO THIS VEHICLE AND TO ME IT SEEMS THAT THIS ISSUE IS ALSO HAPPENING MANY OTHERS INCLUDING MY CLOSE FRIEND WHO OWNS THE SAME VEHICLE.

OCS SYSTEM DOES NOT SENSE WHEN A PASSENGER (GROWN ADULT OVER 150 LBS.) IS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. AS A RESULT THE AIRBAGS REMAIN OFF.

TAKATA INFLATORS. I'VE NOTICED THAT THE REAR DRIVER SIDE SUSPENSION DOES NOT SUSPEND CORRECLY. I FEEL THE REAR TIRE SLIPPING UNDER NORMAL WEATHER CONDITIONS. SO MUCH SO THAT ONE CAN FEEL THE TIRE SLIP. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT MY TIRES ARE STILL NEW. I'M ALSO HEARING A WEIRD SOUND THAT COMES FROM THE SAME AREA. I'M NOT SURE WHAT'S HAPPENING. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION.

WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH ON I10, 20 MILES EAST OF BEAUMONT TEXAS, MY PANORAMIC SUNROOF EXPLODED ON ITS OWN. THERE WAS NO COLLISION WITH ANY ROAD DEBRIS, NOR WERE WE IN THE VICINITY OR IMPACTED FROM ANYTHING FALLING FROM AN OVERPASS. THE TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY AND AS A RESULT OF THE EXPLOSION, I WAS FORCED TO GET TO AN EXIT COVERED IN SHARDS OF GLASS. THIS GLASS EXPLOSION CREATED A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION NOT ONLY FOR MY IMMEDIATE FAMILY, BUT FOR THE OTHER INNOCENT PEOPLE THAT WAS IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA. I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SIDE SHOULDER TO GAIN MY EXPOSURE THEN DROVE TO AN OFF RAMP. I TOOK PICTURES AND CLEANED THE BROKEN SHARDS FROM MY WIFE, MY TWO CATS AND MYSELF FIRST AND FOREMOST. WE ALL HAD GLASS CUTS, BUT DID NOT NEED ANY SUTURES. I THEN CLEANED UP THE REMAINING BROKEN GLASS FROM THE SEATS, FLOOR ETC... AND PILED THE BROKEN SHARDS INTO A PILE ON THE VEHICLE ROOF. I TOOK A PICTURE OF THIS PILE TO SHOW HOW MUCH GLASS COVERED US IN RELATION TO HOW MUCH GLASS EXPLODED OVER THE INNOCENT VEHICLES BEHIND ME AT THE ACTUAL TIME OF EXPLOSION. I CALLED PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE TO NOT ONLY REPORT THE INCIDENT, BUT TO FILE A CLAIM. THEY GAVE ME CLAIM NUMBER 184507967. WHEREAS I WAS ON A BUSINESS TRIP AND DID NOT LIVE IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA, I DID NOT HAVE THE LUXURY OF PARKING THE VEHICLE IN A GARAGE AND GETTING A RENTAL UNTIL RESOLUTION OF THE CLAIM. I DROVE WITH NO PROTECTION FROM THE 35 DEGREE WEATHER AND DRIZZLE TO THE CLOSEST HOME DEPOT AND PURCHASED MATERIALS TO FABRICATE MY OWN INSULATED
