I heard so many problems with the N20
can somebody tell me what is going on with this engine and should we buy the car?
only thing i heard was timing chain issue....
thanks
The timing chain was redesigned for the 2015 model year because of its problems. The 2012-14 models had recalls to address this issue along with the fuel pump. My 2015 hasn't missed a beat,though it only has 13K miles on it. My subjective opinion is that it is a wonderful engine. Torquey and powerful with good gas mileage. Go for it.
