I'VE OWNED THE TRUCK SINCE 04-08 AND CHECKED FRAME AND WAS NOT BAD AT ALL THEN STARTED TO GO DOWN HILL FAST . ITS UNSAFE TO SELL I HAVE BEEN TAKING CARE OF IT NO ONE WOULD BUY IT AND I CANT JUST GO BUY ANOTHER TRUCK IM CONTRACTING NOW AND IT IS A MAJOR TOOL. I ALSO HAVE PICS OF FRAME WITH BED OFF. *TR

WHEN SLOWING DOWN AND TRYING TO DOWN SHIFT AFTER EXITING AN INTERSTATE, I FIND THAT THE CLUTCH PEDAL IS COMPLETELY DEPRESSED (BOTTOMED OUT) UNEXPECTEDLY, RESULTING IN INABILITY TO DOWN SHIFT OR MOVE GEAR SHIFT TO NEUTRAL. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIME OVER A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR. *NM

I DROVE SOMEWHERE, PARKED THE TRUCK AND I SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING AND SAW SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I ASKED SOMEONE IF THEY HAD A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND THEY DID. I OPENED THE HOOD AND THE GUY USED THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER TO PUT THE FIRE OUT. IT STARTED IN THE WIRING HARNESS UNDER THE HOOD. MORE SPECIFICALLY, THERE IS A RESISTOR AND A CAPACITOR COMING OUT OF THE WIRING HARNESS (NEAR THE DRIVER-SIDE HEADLIGHT / DISTRIBUTOR COIL AREA) THAT WAS ON FIRE. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY NISSAN TRUCKS HAVE THIS DEFECT, BUT THAT'S FOR NISSAN AND THE GOVERNMENT TO KEEP TRACK OF. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO KNOW, HOW MANY ELECTRICAL / WIRING HARNESS FIRES HAVE TO OCCUR BEFORE A RECALL IS IN ORDER? *JB

I HAD A 1993 NISSAN EX CAB P/U STANDARD WITH A/C AND POWER STEERING AND I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE INJECTORS STAYING ON WITH THE KEY OFF AND WOULD FILL THE ENGINE FULL OF GAS.

EXAUST MANIFOLD ) IN THIS VEHICLE AS WELL AS THE MAXIMA AND PATHFINDER HAVE BEEN REDESIGNED. HOWEVER , THE PROBLEM WITH EARLIER YEAR VEHICLES HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. I KNOW OF 6 OTHER OWNERS THAT HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. I WAS ADVISED BY THE DEALER THAT THE REPLACEMENT BOLTS WERE MUCH STRONGER. THEY LASTED 10,000 MILES. THIS IS A WELL CARED FOR VEHICLE IN LIKE NEW CONDITION. PHOTOS OF THE REPLACEMENT OF THE MANIFOLD BOLTS AT THE DEALERSHIP ARE AVAILABLE AND CAN BE PROVIDED IN PDF FORMAT FOR YOUR VIEWING.

RIGHT SIDE OF EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAKING. TWO STUDS BROKEN OFF. CHECKED RIGHT SIDE AND FOUND ONE BROKEN STUD, NOT LEAKING YET. I TALKED WITH TWO DEALERS, A PARTS DISTRIBUTOR, AND A OWNER OF A 1989 PATHFINDER (SAME ENGINE) AND THEY ALL CONFIRMED THAT THIS WAS A TYPICAL PROBLEM WITH THIS ENGINE. I HAD THE EXHAUSET GASKETS AND STUDS REPLACED ON BOTH SIDES. ($ 856.75) THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN VERY WELL MAINTAINED AND THERE IS NO REASON WHY THE EXHAUST STUDS SHOULD BE FAILING AT ONLY 70,000+ MILES. THE SERVICE WRITER INFORMED ME THAT THEY REPLACED THE STUDS WITH "NEW & IMPROVED" STUDS. THIS WOULD INDICATE TO ME THAT THE ORIGINAL DESIGN WAS FAULTY. NEITHER DEALER CONTACTED MENTIONED ANY FACTORY ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN OUT ON THIS ITEM ((FC0009202)
