I HAVE A 1994 NISSAN TRUCK, WHICH I BOUGHT NEW. TRUCK RUNS GREAT HARDLEY AND RUST ON BODY. I WAS DRIVING TRUCK ON 11-19-2008 AND HEARD A LOUD BANG. TRUCK DARTED TO THE RIGHT AND JUST ABOUT WRECKED. I PULLED OVER AND LOOKED UNDER MY TRUCK. MY FRONT A-ARM STRUT MOUNT RUSTED AND BROKE FROM MY FRAME. THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS KILLED OR INJURED. I LOOKED AT MY FRAME AND THE ENTIRE FRAME IS RUSTED COMPLETELY. NOT JUST A SPOT HERE OR THERE BUT ENTIRE FRAME IS LITERALLY FALLING OFF THE TRUCK. I AM TO AFRAID TO DRIVE TRUCK AND NOONE WILL REPAIR DUE TO CONDITION OF THE FRAME. THE TRUCK HAD BEEN WELL CARED FOR AND SHOULD NOT BE RUSTED. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. IT APPEARS THAT TOYOTA HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND PURCHASED THEIR FAULTY TRUCKS BACK. NISSAN SHOULD DO THE SAME BEFORE MORE PEOPLE ARE KILLED OR INJURED FROM THEIR FAULTY PRODUCT. *TR

I AM AN OWNER OF A 1994 NISSAN PICK UP WITH SERIOUS FRAME PROBLEMS. THE FRAME IS RUSTED IN MANY PLACES AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE. AFTER RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM IT SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH NISSAN PICK UPS AND PATHFINDERS. *TR

I TOOK MY 1994 NISSAN 4X4 PICKUP TRUCK IN FOR A WATER PUMP AND EXHAUST SYSTEM TO A NISSAN DEALER. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE TRUCK BECAUSE THE FRAME IS SO RUSTED THAT IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE TRUCK. THIS VEHICLE HAS 118,000 MILES AND WAS NOT USED FOR ANYTHING OTHER THEN DAILY TRANSPORTATION TO WORK AND BACK HOME. *TR

I HAVE A 1994 NISSAN 4X4 PICKUP XE WITH 118,000 MILES ON IT. I TOOK IT IN TO A NISSAN DEALER BECAUSE I NEEDED A WATER PUMP AND EXHAUST SYSTEM REPAIRED. I WAS INFORMED BY THE DEALER THAT THEY WOULD NOT MAKE THE REPAIR BECAUSE THE FRAME IS RUSTED THROUGH ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE TRUCK AND THE TRUCK IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. HOW CAN THIS BE POSSIBLE, THIS IS NOT A TRUCK THAT IS USED OFF ROAD OR FOR ANY 4X4 ACTIVITIES. I PURCHASED A NISSAN BECAUSE I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT A NISSAN WILL BASICALLY LAST FOREVER. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO BUY ANOTHER VEHICLE AND FEEL THAT NISSAN SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A THING IN MY LIFE THAT THE FRAME IS RUSTED AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE. *TR

FOR THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS, I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE RIGHT TAILLIGHT ON MY 1994 NISSAN PICKUP. I'VE TRIED TO HAVE IT REPAIRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THUS FAR IT HAS BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL. I AM NOT ABLE TO GET MY TRUCK PAST STATE INSPECTION BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. IN LOOKING UP RECALLS ONLINE, I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR TAILLIGHT FAILURE FROM 1995 FORWARD AND WANTED TO KNOW IF 1994 WAS ALSO IMPACTED. *NM
