2005 Nissan Xterra complaints

MY 2005 NISSAN XTERRA HAD JUST UNDER 100,000 MILES ON IT. THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SLIP AND THERE WOULD BE NO POWER. I HAD IT TOWED TO NISSAN AND THE RADIATOR HAD LEAKED COOLANT INTO THE TRANSMISSION, DESTROYING THE TRANSMISSION FOR ABOUT A 5,000 $ REPAIR. NISSAN OFFERED NO EXPLANATION OTHER THAN "IT HAPPENS", AND AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH, FOUND THAT I'M NOT THE ONLY CASE OF THIS HAPPENING. LUCKILY FOR ME, I WAS ON A SECLUDED STATE ROAD WHEN MY TRANSMISSION FIRST SLIPPED. HAD I BEEN ON A FREEWAY, I WOULD HAVE LOST ALL POWER IN A BUSY AND UNSAFE LOCATION.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIANS STATED THE ECM FILTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. AFTER THE REPAIRS WERE MADE THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 10V517000 (COMPONENT: ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED IN REGARDS TO REIMBURSEMENT AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

THE FUEL SENDING UNIT IS BAD ON MY 2005 NISSAN XTERRA IT IS THROWING A P0463 CODE AND AFTER SOME RESEARCH I FOUND IT AN APPARENT PROBLEM IN MOST 2ND GENERATION XTERRA'S AND FRONTIERS. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE FUEL SENDING UNIT TELLS THE GAUGE HOW MUCH GAS IS IN THE TANK AND SINCE IT IS NOW WORKING THE GAUGE IS NOT READING THE PROPER AMOUNT OF GAS WHICH CAN LEAD TO A ACCIDENT WHEN THE VEHICLE RUNS OUT OF FUEL. *TR

FUEL GAUGE STAYS AT EMPTY AND SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT COME ON. *TR

DRIVING OF VEHICLE HAS RESULTED IN THE FAILURE OF THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THERE APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW IN THE COOLING SYSTEM TO LEAK ONTO THE TRANSMISSION CAUSING FAILURE. THE ONLY OPTION IS REPLACEMENT OF THE TRANSMISSION. *TR

THE FUEL SENDING UNIT FAILED ON MY 2005 NISSAN XTERRA CAUSING ME TO RUN OUT OF GAS ON THE HIGHWAY. I NEEDED TO WALK APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES ON HIGHWAY TO CONTACT A TOW TRUCK. *TR

2005 XTERRA WITH 60,000, P0463 COMPUTER ERROR, WHICH IS THE FUEL LEVEL SENDING UNIT. (SENSOR A, CIRCUIT HIGH INPUT)

*** IPDM AND DOUBLE CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILURE IN 2005 NISSAN XTERRA *** MY 2005 NISSAN XTERRA ENGINE ONCE SHUT DOWN AS I AM DRIVING ON A BUSY STREET; I HAD TO LET THE XTERRA COAST A SHORT DISTANCE WITHOUT POWER TO PULL OVER AND STOP MY SUV TO THE SIDE OF A SAFER SECTION OF THE ROAD. I COULD NOT IMMEDIATELY RESTART THE CAR. AFTER WAITING ABOUT 15 MINUTES, I WAS EVENTUALLY ABLE TO RESTART AND DRIVE THE SUV. THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER NEVER WENT AWAY. PERIODICALLY THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. IT FINALLY GOT TO THE POINT WHERE THE CAR WOULD NOT START AT ALL. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TWICE, INCLUDING A TOW TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN SANTA MONICA. THE INCIDENT BEGAN IN APRIL 2010. IN MAY 2010, THE NISSAN DEALER IN SANTA MONICA CHECKED THE PROBLEM AND INDICATED THAT THE IPDM HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS WAS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. SHORTLY AFTER THE IPDM WAS REPLACED, 1 OF 2 CATALYTIC CONVERTERS IN THE XTERRA FAILED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. 6 MONTHS LATER (DECEMBER 2010), THE OTHER CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILED. I BELIEVE THE IPDM ISSUE IS SEVERE. I BELIEVE THE IPDM ISSUE IS ALSO ASSOCIATED WITH (AND LIKELY TO BE THE CAUSE OF) THE FAILURE OF CATALYTIC CONVERTERS IN THE VEHICLE. IN MY CASE, IT IS DOUBLE FAILURE SINCE BOTH CATALYTIC CONVERTERS FAILED 6 MONTHS APART FROM EACH OTHER. FAILURE OF THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN. *TR

2005 NISSAN XTERRA STALLED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO JERK WHILE IN REVERSE. THE VEHICLE HAD STRUCK A STEEL BEAM CAUSING SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE. THE FUEL GAUGE WAS MISREADING, SHOWING MY TRUCK HAD GAS WHILE IN REALITY IT WAS EMPTY. *TR

TL- THE CONTACT OWNS 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THE FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT READ CORRECTLY. THE TANK CAN BE FULL AND IT WILL SAY A HALF A TANK AND WHEN IT REACHES A QUARTER TANK THE GAUGE WILL DROP TO EMPTY. THERE IS NO NHTSA CAMPAIGN RECALL ON THIS YEAR MODEL AND THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS HAD TO MANY MILES TO BE REPAIRED BY THEM. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 81000.RL

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE SENSOR WAS READING INACCURATELY AND SHE WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE HOW MUCH GASOLINE WAS ACTUALLY IN THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE WAS SIMILAR TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V075000 ( FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:AUXILLARY TANK). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND CONCLUDED THAT THE FUEL SYSTEM SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT INFORMED THE MANUFACTURER WHO STATED THAT SINCE THE VEHILCE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 90,000. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

P0463 ERROR CODE FULE LEVEL SENSOR. *TR

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING ISSUES WITH MY FUEL GAUGE ON MY 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. I CAN NO LONGER PLACE TRUST IN THE GAUGE, SINCE I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS TWICE NOW, WHILE THE GAUGE STILL SHOWED FUEL AVAILABLE IN THE TANK. THE ERROR CODES ON THE COMPUTER MODULE STATE IT IS THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH NISSAN AND THEY REFUSED TO RECTIFY THIS ISSUE. *TR

FUEL GAUGE WENT INOP AT APPROX 90,000 MILES. NISSAN HAD EXTENDED THE FUEL GAUGE WARRANTY TO 72,000 WHICH IS RIDICULOUS CONSIDERING MOST XTERRA'S, PATHFINDERS, AND FRONTIERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL, NOT A WARRANTY EXTENSION. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. RUNNING OUT OF GAS ON THE HIGHWAY IS DANGEROUS. *TR

MY 2005 XTERRA WITH 82K MILES STARTED VIBRATING BADLY WHEN ACCELERATING OVER 50MPH. IT FELT LIKE I WAS DRIVING OVER RUMBLE STRIPS. I CALLED NISSAN ASSIST ON 12/29/2010 AND WAS TOLD MY RADIATOR HAD FAILED, LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND TOTALLY DESTROYED IT. MY ONLY OPTION WAS A $4600 REPLACEMENT OF THE RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION. THE NISSAN ASSIST GUY THEN TOLD ME THAT NISSAN KNEW ABOUT THE PROBLEM, BUT INSTEAD OF ISSUING A RECALL, THEY SIMPLY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FROM 60K TO 72K MILES (THIS WAS AN ERROR ON HIS PART, BECAUSE THE EXTENSION WAS ACTUALLY TO 80K MILES). REGARDLESS, IT DIDN'T APPLY TO ME BECAUSE I WAS AT 82K MILES. NISSAN IS TRYING TO EASE THE PAIN WITH EXTENDING THE WARRANTY HOWEVER, THEY MAKE NO ATTEMPT TO CONTACT YOU ABOUT IT. YOU EITHER NEED TO FIND IT YOURSELF OR YOUR SCREWED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A STEEP HILL, I TURNED OFF THE OVERDRIVE AND THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY SHOWED THE VEHICLE HAD SHIFTED INTO 4TH GEAR BUT IN FACT IS WAS STILL IN OD (5TH) GEAR. UPON ACTIVATING THE BUTTON TO SHIFT BACK TO OD, THE VEHICLE NOW SHIFTED DOWN INTO 3RD GEAR BUT DISPLAYED THAT IT WAS IN OD (5TH) GEAR. I LIVE IN THE SAN BERNARDINO MOUNTAINS OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND I NEED TO DOWNSHIFT TO SLOW THE VEHICLE WHEN GOING DOWNHILL AND TO AVOID OVERHEATING THE BRAKES WITH A POSSIBILITY OF BRAKE FAILURE. I HAVE VISITED TWO DIFFERENT NISSAN DEALERS ON A TOTAL OF FOUR OCCASIONS TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM AND THEY TELL ME THAT IS THE WAY THE VEHICLE FUNCTIONS AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO FIX IT. ALTHOUGH I THOUGHT I WAS BUYING A VEHICLE WITH FIVE GEARS, IN FACT WHEN GOING DOWN HILL IT DOES NOT HAVE A 4TH GEAR. UPDATED 02/14/11 *BF

BEGINNING SUMMER 2010 2005 NISSAN XTERRA (PURCHASED NEW IN 2005) BEGAN MAKING RUMBLING NOISE (AS IF GOING OVER RUMBLE STRIPS) WHILE DRIVING. INCIDENT OCCURRED FREQUENTLY AT DIFFERING SPEEDS FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS. NO OTHER PROBLEMS WERE EVIDENT AT THAT TIME. IN NOVEMBER 2010 WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY VEHICLE BEGAN OVERHEATING, BLOWING HOT AIR THROUGH AIR CONDITIONER, AND REGISTERING HOT ON GAUGE. VEHICLE WAS IMMEDIATELY TAKEN TO LOCAL MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE PROBLEM. THE NEXT DAY VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP WHERE CAR WAS PURCHASED AND TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO RADIATOR FLUID LEAK. AFTER RESEARCH AND FINDING THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE THE OWNER DECIDED NOT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE FIXED AT HER EXPENSE AND IS NOT DRIVING THE VEHICLE UNTIL AN AGREEMENT IS MADE WITH NISSAN. WHILE THERE WERE NO INJURIES OR ACCIDENTS IN THIS INCIDENCE RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS REPORTS OF TRANSMISSION FAILURES IN TRAFFIC EITHER CAUSING OR ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENTS. NISSAN'S FAILURE TO ALERT 05 XTERRA OWNERS OF THIS PROBLEM THAT THEY ARE WELL AWARE OF IS NEGLIGENCE AND RISKS HEALTH AND SAFETY. FURTHER, IT CAN BE FOUND THAT THE PROBLEM CANNOT BE FIXED BY SIMPLY REPLACING THE ORIGINAL PARTS AS THE PARTS AND DESIGN WERE DEFECTIVE TO BEGIN WITH. RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT AFTER BEING "FIXED" BY THE DEALERSHIP THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED AGAIN. *TR

PLEASE HELP! MY FUEL SENSOR IS FAILING. MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON NOW AND THE REPAIR FOR THIS IS EXPENSIVE. I RECEIVED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY IN THE MAIL FOR 72,000 MILES FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. I CALLED NISSAN DIRECTLY BECAUSE MY MILEAGE WAS PAST THIS AND THIS IS AN EXTREMELY COMMON FAILURE IN XTERRAS AND THEY SAID THEY COULD DO NOTHING FOR ME. THERE IS A NISSAN SERVICE BULLETIN NTB07-069B IN EXISTENCE, BUT NOT A RECALL. SINCE THEY WOULDN'T HELP ME, MY LIGHT WAS ON LONG BEFORE I HIT 72,000 MILES, AND THIS IS SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM IN THESE VEHICLES, I FEEL STRONGLY THAT NISSAN SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL. I HAVE HIGH MILEAGE ON MY CAR BECAUSE MY FAMILY LIVES 6 HOURS AWAY AND I DRIVE TO SEE THEM FREQUENTLY. IS THERE ANY THING YOU CAN DO TO HELP ME? PLEASE? *TR

CHECK ENGINE SOON LIGHT ILLUMINATED. GAS GAUGE INACCURATE. GAS LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHEN PLENTY OF GAS IS STILL IN TANK. DTE FEATURE NO LONGER SHOWS NUMBERS ONLY DASHES. ONLY 66,000 MILES ON VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM STARTED AROUND 64,000 MILES. *TR

ON SATURDAY DECEMBER 18, 2010 I NOTICED A VIBRATION IN MY 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. THE FOLLOWING MONDAY I TOOK IT TO A DEALER FOR SERVICE. I WAS TOLD THAT MY RADIATOR HAD FAILED AND THAT IT HAD LEAKED COOLANT INTO MY TRANSMISSION, CAUSING BOTH COMPONENTS TO NEED IMMEDIATE REPLACEMENT. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE FAILURE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND THAT IT OCCURS WITH NO WARNING...NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, NO NOTICEABLE DETERIORATION OF PERFORMANCE, IT JUST HAPPENS. HE SAID THAT IN A WORST-CASE SCENARIO, THE VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION COULD SEIZE CAUSING AN IMMEDIATE STOP AND LOSS OF CONTROL. WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURRED ON MY XTERRA, I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE TRAVELING 60-70MPH. NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE RADIATOR BY 20,000 MILES (TO 80K FROM 60K) BUT THEY REFUSE TO ISSUE A RECALL EVEN THOUGH THIS PROBLEM AFFECTS ALL OF THEIR MID-SIZED TRUCKS AND SUVS MANUFACTURED IN 2005. FURTHERMORE, NISSAN ISSUED THIS EXTENSION TO DEALERSHIPS AND NOT DIRECTLY TO CONSUMERS. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE CHANGE OR ANY POTENTIAL PROBLEM. AS SUCH, I HAVE BEEN DRIVING A TICKING TIME-BOMB THAT LUCKILY DID NOT GO OFF AND HARM MYSELF OR MY FAMILY. *TR

MY NISSAN XTERRA HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL GAUGE SENSOR. THE SENSOR READING COMES AND GOES AND I HAVE EVEN RAN OUT OF GAS ONCE. THERE WAS A RECALL OUT ON THIS FOR IMMEDIATE REPAIRS AND ONE THAT GAVE AN EXTENDED MILEAGE WARRANTY TO 72,000 MILES. I CALLED NISSAN IN MAY 2010, AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE STILL DEALING WITH GETTING THE CORRECT PART AND TO CALL BACK IN A FEW MONTHS. I WAS AROUND 66,000 MILES AT THAT TIME. I HAD A FRIEND AT WORK WHO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND HE HAD IT INTO THE DEALER 4 TIMES AND IT WASN'T UNTIL AROUND SEPTEMBER WHEN IT GOT FIXED WITH THE RIGHT PART. SO KNOWING THAT, THAT IS WHEN I CALLED IN SINCE I KNEW THEY HAD THE CORRECT PART. I TOOK IT IN FOR THE FUEL GAUGE AND FRONT CRASH SENSOR RECALLS, AND THEY ONLY FIXED THE ONE. NISSAN TOLD ME THAT THE FUEL GAUGE RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE WAS ONLY GOOD TIL 72,000 MILES, AND I WAS OVER THAT. I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS FAIR SINCE I WAS TRYING TO GET IT FIXED AND I WAS UNDER THAT MILEAGE IN MAY, BUT WHILE WAITING ON NISSAN TO GET IT RIGHT, FROM MAY TO SEPTEMBER, I OBVIOUSLY PUT ON MORE MILES AND IT PUT ME OVER. NOW THEY SAY THEY WONT COVER IT. THIS IS NOT MY FAULT, AND OTHER XTERRAS WITH THIS ISSUE ARE GETTING THIS COVERED, I FEEL THAT I AM ENTITLED TO THE SAME. THANKS *TR

ENGINE STOPPED WHILE MOVING CAUSING INSTANT DECELARATION, CARS FOLLOWING HAD TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION FOUND DEFECTIVE ECM UNIT BY NISSAN DEALERSHIP

THE ENGINE IN MY 2005 NISSAN XTERRA (4WD) BEGAN MAKING A SLIGHT WHINING NOISE. I WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE NOISE WAS A DRIVE BELT. AFTER REPLACING THAT ITEM, A SLIGHT KNOCKING COULD BE HEARD. AS I WAS TRAVELING ALONG A MAJOR HIGHWAY MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND FORCED ME TO AVOID A COLLISION AND COAST OFF THE ROADWAY. I LEARNED THAT THE NOISE WAS FROM A TIMING CHAIN INSIDE MY ENGINE. THE MECHANIC ADVISED MULTIPLE NISSAN VEHICLES HAD BEEN GETTING THE TIMING CHAIN REPLACED, AND THAT THIS WAS VERY UNUSUAL FOR A VEHICLE LIKE MINE WITH ONLY 70,000 MILES. THE REPAIRS FOR THIS COST OVER $1000 INCLUDING A TOW CHARGE, RENTAL CAR ETC. *TR

FUEL SENSOR GOES BAD ON NISSAN XTERRA CAUSING VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF GAS AND STALL, WHEN IT APPEARS VEHICLE HAS PLENTY OF FUEL (ACCORDING TO THE GAUGE.) *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA 4.0. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENTAL PANEL INDICATING THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT HE NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,100.

2005 NISSAN XTERRA 4 WD--SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT COMES ON--CHECKING THE DIAGNOSTICS CODE INDICATE FUEL SENSOR IS THE ISSUE; A FEW DAYS LATER, FUEL GAUGE BECOMES ERRATIC AND EVENTUALLY QUITS WORKING; A CALL TO THE NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS INDICATE THE CAR IS PART OF A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM--EXCEPT THE RECALL IS VOID AFTER 72,000. MY MILEAGE EXCEEDS THE 72,000 LIMIT. *TR

2005 NISSAN XTERRA 4WD--VEHICLE HAS VIBRATION IN STEERING AND GEAR SHIFT ACCOMPANIED WITH A LOW RUMBLE; MECHANIC REPORTS PROBLEM IS IN FRONT U-JOINT;-BEST TO REPLACE BOTH U-JOINTS; ALSO BEING REPORTED BY NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT -- MOST LIKELY WILL BE A RECALL; ENTIRE DRIVE SHAFT MUST BE REPLACED, NOT JUST THE U-JOINT; ADDITIONALLY NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS REPORTING PART IS NOT AVAILABLE. I HAVE A CAR WITH A PROBLEM IN DRIVE TRAIN THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED, A MANUFACTURER REPORTING A POTENTIAL RECALL AND NO PARTS AVAILABLE. MY OPTIONS ARE--PARK CAR UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE (NO ETA ON THE PARTS), DRIVE CAR WITH A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM, OR HAVE A USED PART PLACED INTO THE CAR. *TR

FIRST PROBLEM - WHEN I HAD 53,000 MI ON IT, IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, IT STARTED CUTTING OUT AND WOULDN'T ACCELERATE AT ALL, HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER TO FIND OUT THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS BAD. THEY SAID THAT HE RADIATOR LEAKED, FLOODING MY TRANSMISSION WITH COOLANT AND RUINED MY TRANSMISSION. THEY REFUSED TO HONOR THE WARRANTY STATING THAT "THE TRANMISSION DID NOT FAIL - THE RADIATOR DID (WHICH WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY) THEREFORE THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT COVERED". I HAD TO LET THEM REPLACE THE RADIATOR AND FLUSH THE TRANSMISSION 3 TIMES - IT COST ME $1,400 OUT OF POCKET - NOW HERE I AM 30,000 MILES LATER AND MY REVERSE WILL NOT WORK AT ALL, MY TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACED. SO I HAD PAID 1,400 JUST TO BUY MYSELF AN YEAR & A HALF AND NOW I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. 2ND PROBLEM - I HAVE THE FUEL GAUGE/SENSOR PROBLEM, ALSO. I FILLED UP ONE DAY, GOT IN MY CAR AND GAUGE READ EMPTY & CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I HAD A RIP-OFF MECHANIC CHARGE ME $170 TO REPLACE THE SENSOR - NOTHING EVER CHANGED, GAUGE IS STILL BROKE AND LIGHT IS STILL ON. NISSAN IS SO WRONG FOR NOT HANDLING THEIR PROBLEMS, CONSUMERS DESERVE TO BE TREATED FAIRLY. THERE SHOULD BE A CLASS ACTION SUIT AGAINST THEM - JUST READ THESE COMPLAINT BOARDS. SOMEHOW I HAVE BOTH OF THE MOST COMMON PROBLEMS WITH THESE VEHICLES.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. AFTER REFUELING THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED A READING OF EMPTY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO BEGAN TO ILLUMINATE ON THE DASHBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FUEL SENDING UNIT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE CONTINUED TO RECUR INTERMITTENTLY AFTER REFUELING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 118,000.

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA 4X4 OFF-ROAD SUV (VIN#[XXX]), AROUND 50,300MI. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED ON NOV. 5, 2010 AROUND 11PM. MY XTERRA STARTED TO STALL ON THE FREEWAY AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY WHERE THE ENGINE DIED. I TRIED RE-STARTING IT AND THE ENGINE RAN ROUGH, SO I TURNED IT OFF. I TRIED RE-STARTING IT AFTER 30 SECONDS THIS TIME THE ENGINE RAN SMOOTH, WAITED FOR A MINUTE AND THEN STARTED DRIVING BACK ONTO THE FREEWAY HEADING HOME. ABOUT A MILE LATER THE ENGINE STARTED TO STALL AGAIN AND I HAD TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD RIGHT AWAY ALMOST NEARLY HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE BECAUSE MY ENGINE HAD NO POWER TO SPEED UP BECAUSE IT WAS DYING. LUCKILY NO ACCIDENT, JUST A NEAR MISS. I WAS ABLE TO RE-START MY XTERRA AGAIN AND WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME SAFELY. I HAD TO TOW MY XTERRA TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. FROM THEIR DIAGNOSIS. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE REP TOLD ME THAT I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE MY IPDM. HE WAS CHECKING TO SEE IF THIS PART WOULD FALL UNDER MY POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. HE CALLED ME BACK LATER AND TOLD ME IT WOULD COST $550 TO REPLACE IT. I ASKED WHAT ABOUT MY POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, HE TOLD ME HE HAVE TO GET BACK TO ME BECAUSE THE WARRANTY SPECIALISTS WAS SICK. JUST MY LUCK. I WILL HAVE TO WAIT TILL MONDAY TO SEE IF I WAS COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. THEY DIDN'T EVEN OFFER ME A LOANER CAR OVER THE WEEKEND. I INFORMED HIM ABOUT THE RECALL ON THE IPDM NISSAN PUT OUT ON OCT. 28, 2010. THE SERVICE REP SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE IPDM. GO FIGUR

2005 XTERRA SE. WHEN DRIVING AT 1.5 TO 2 RPMS TRUCK RUMBLES UNDERNEATH LIKE IT IS GOING OVER THE RUMBLE STRIPS ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. ACCELERATION OR DECELERATION STOPS THE NOISE. REAR DIFFERENTIAL ISSUES HAVE BEEN RAISED ON MANY NISSAN AND TRUCK FORUMS DISCUSSING THE LATER 2000 XTERRA MODELS. NISSAN SAID I NEED THE NEW REAR DIFFERENTIAL. CURIOUS IF THIS IS A WIDE RANGE PROBLEM. *TR

NISSAN XTERRA ENGINE STALLED ON THE HIGHWAY ABRUPTLY TWO TIMES ON OCT 27TH 2010. CAR TOWED TO DEALER FOR REPAIR ON OCT 28TH, 2010. COMPLETE INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE REPLACED AFTER A 10 DAY LONG WAIT WITH NO FEEDBACK FROM DEALER OR MANUFACTURER ABOUT RECALL OF THIS PART. MANUFACTURER NOT RETURNING CALLS TO CONSUMER REGARDING COVERING COMPLETE COST OF SERVICES IN SPITE OF THE CONDITION CLEARLY BEING A RECALL ISSUE (CAMPAIGN ID 10V517000). *TR

I DRIVE A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AFTER I FILLED MY VEHICLE WITH GAS AND THE GAS GAUGE READ EMPTY. *TR

THIS '05 XTERRA HAD A THOROUGH CHECK OUT & DIAGNOSTIC. THEN 500 MILES LATER, AT AROUND 46000 MILES, WHEN THE FUEL INDICATOR WAS AT 1/2 TANK- THE NEEDLE SUDDENLY PLUNGED TO BELOW EMPTY, A LIGHT CAME ON AND THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON. THIS WAS ALL VERY ALARMING, AND WE WERE STUCK IN BUMPER-BUMPER TRAFFIC IN A BAD PART OF PHOENIX WHEN IT HAPPENED. IT WASN'T HOT OUT, JUST A BIG TRAFFIC JAM IN 5:00 RUSH, AND WE WERE NOWHERE NEAR A GAS STATION. IT WAS TERRIBLE, AND WE WERE VERY SCARED TO BE STRANDED. AFTER THAT WE BOUGHT A HUGE GAS CAN, AND JUST DROVE AROUND WITH 10 GALLONS OF GAS JUST IN CASE. THAT IS TERRIBLE, TO HAVE TO DRIVE WONDERING IF WHEN YOU'LL ACTUALLY RUN OUT OF GAS, VS. JUST BEING TOLD YOU ARE OUT OF GAS.THIS STARTED HAPPENING DURING THE BEGINNING OF OUR CROSS-COUNTRY TRIP TO THE COAST AND BACK. IT WAS AN ISSUE THE ENTIRE TIME, AND VERY NERVE WRACKING. NISSAN SHOULD FIX THIS, SINCE I'VE RETURNED FROM OUR TRIP AND FOUND THAT 100'S OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING EXACT SAME PROBLEM! THIS IS A FAULTY PART, AND IT MAKES ME WONDER WHAT ELSE WILL GO WRONG. THIS IS THE FIRST NISSAN OUR FAMILY HAS HAD, AND I AM AFRAID WE MIGHT NOT BE BUYING ANOTHER ONE, AND TELLING OTHERS TO STEER CLEAR OF NISSAN. *TR

2005 NISSAN XTERRA SE, FUEL SENDING UNIT IS ERRATIC AND DOESN'T READ PROPER AMOUNT OF FUEL IN TANK. THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN FOR ANYONE WHO ACTUALLY USES THEIR TRUCK OUT IN THE DESERT THINKING THEY HAVE MORE FUEL THEN IS INDICATED. QUITE OFTEN THE GAUGE WILL DROP DOWN TO EMPTY AND I'VE GONE TO FILL THE TRUCK UP JUST IN CASE AND END UP PUTTING ONLY A FEW GALLONS OF FUEL IN THE TRUCK. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, ALTHOUGH ITS NOT A SAFETY CONCERN I DO BELIEVE THAT THE GAUGE SHOWING THE TANK IS AT 3/4 OR MORE THEN DROPPING DOWN TO 1/4 TANK (THE ACTUAL AMOUNT OF FUEL) IS ONE. MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT IS THAT NISSAN HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR MODELS EARLIER THEN THE 2005 AND THE MODELS FROM 2006 FORWARD. WHY IS IT THAT THESE MODELS GET THE RECALL AND NOT THE 2005 MODELS? THE COMPONENT THAT IS FAILING IN BOTH THE EARLIER AND LATER MODELS IS THE EXACT SAME PART. *TR

2005 NISSAN XTERRA FUEL LEVEL SENSOR MALFUNCTION. APPARENTLY ITS EXTREMELY COMMON AND NISSAN ISN'T DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

NO SPECIFIC EVENTS LEADING TO FAILURE. STANDARD USE OF THE 2005 NISSAN XTERRA AND THE FAILURE HAS OCCURRED AT APPROXIMATELY 70K MILES ON THE CAR.. THE FAILURE IS THE FUEL SENSOR GAUGE WHICH CAUSES THE GAS GAUGE TO BE INACCURATE AT ALL TIMES. IT WILL GO FROM FULL TO EMPTY IN 1 SECOND WHILE YOU ARE HEADED DOWN THE ROAD. OTHER TIMES IT WILL SHOW HALF TANK WHEN THE TANK IS EMPTY. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME WE ARE IN THE CAR. CONSEQUENCES COULD BE FATAL IF WE HAD NOT CAUGHT ON TO THE ISSUE. AT ANY POINT WE RUN THE RISK OF RUNNING OUT OF GAS DUE TO AN ERROR IN THE WAY THE GAUGE IS READING.. WE ARE FORCED TO TRACK MILES ON THE ODOMETER EACH TIME WE FILL UP. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE BY ME AT THIS POINT. NISSAN HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THE ISSUE BY RECALLING 2006+ MODELS AND EXTENDING THE WARRANTY TO 72K MILES ON THE 2005 MODELS. OUR CAR NOW HAS 90K MILES ON IT SO WE DO NOT MEET EITHER OF THEIR "SAFETY" FIXES. *TR

MY NISSAN XTERRA HAS A FAULT FUEL GAUGE SENDING UNIT, THE SENOR WENT OUT BUT I AM PAST THE 72K EXTENDED WARRANTY. I RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL TODAY INDICATING THAT IF THIS PARTICULAR ITEM IS BEING EXTENDED TO CUSTOMERS OF THE NISSAN XTERRA BUT UP TO 72K MILES, I CURRENTLY HAVE 75K ON MY CALL. ONCE I CALLED NISSAN AND ASKED IF THIS COULD BE EXTENDED AS A COURTESY BECAUSE I JUST RECEIVED THE LETTER TODAY I WAS NOT GIVEN A CLEAR ANSWER BUT INSTEAD TOLD TO GO TO A DEALER HAVE THEM RUN THE DX AND THEN HAVE THE DEALER CONTACT NISSAN? IM CONFUSED WHY CAN'T THEY JUST EXTEND IT FOR ME SINCE I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE DIAGNOSTICS COMPLETED BY SOMEONE OTHER THAN NISSAN. PLEASE HELP ME. *TR

THE FUEL SENDING UNIT ON MY 2005 NISSAN XTERRA FAILED AT 50105 MILES. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AND IT IS UNDER RECALL *BUT NOT FOR MY YEAR/VIN). THIS IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT AND NISSAN SHOULD EXTEND THE RECALL TO COVER ALL 2005-2010 XTERRAS. OBSERVED PROBLEM: 1. SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT 2. CODE: P0463 3. FUEL GAUGE NO LONGER WORKING (FILLED TANK SHOWING HALF FILLED). *TR

STEERING WHEEL SHAKES BETWEEN 55 AND 75 MPH, INCONSISTENTLY BUT ALWAYS SOMEWHERE IN THAT RANGE. CUSTOMER SERVICE AT NISSAN IS NON EXISTENT. THEY DO NOT RETURN CALLS,AND ARE NOT CONCERNED ABOUT CUSTOMER SAFETY DEALERS ARE A-HOLES, THEY DO NOT SERVE THEIR CUSTOMERS, ONLY WANT TO CHARGE A LOT OF MONEY AND THEN 1/2 THE TIME WILL NOT ACTUALLY FIX WHAT WAS WRONG. AT LEAST THE ONE IN MARYLAND WHICH I GO TO (JONES) I HAVE HEARD OF THEM TAKING YOUR CAR IN AND ACTUALLY TAKING PARTS OFF OF IT TO PUT ON SOMEBODY ELSE'S CAR, THEN PUTTING BAD PARTS BACK ON YOUR CAR AND RELEASING IT TO YOU AS WELL AS NOT DOING ANYTHING AND CHARGING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS AS IF THEY DID DO SOMETHING. CROOKS. *TR

2005 NISSAN XTERRA- TRANSMISSION FAILURE DUE TO LEAKAGE OF RADIATOR FLUID FROM TRANSMISSION COOLING LINE INFILTRATING INTO TRANSMISSION AND CAUSING IT TO FAIL. TRANSMISSION WHEN FAILS WILL CAUSE SEVERE VIBRATIONS OR WILL SEIZE UP. DEALERSHIP HAS NO SPECIFIC INFORMATION ABOUT TECHNICAL BULLETINS BUT SERVICE PERSONS (OFF RECORD) CONFIRM INCREASING NUMBER OF UNITS BEING PRESENTED FOR REPAIR. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA PURCHASED NEW IN 2006. IT LOOKS NEW STILL AND I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF IT. I REPORTED MANY TIMES ABOUT THE GAS GAUGE NOT WORKING CORRECTLY TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS O.K. WHEN CHECKED. THEY SINCE SOLD TO SOMEONE ELSE. IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE, A LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME TO CHECK MAINTENANCE BECAUSE OF IT AND I CANNOT PASS STATE INSPECTION UNTIL I PAY SEVERAL HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO REPAIR IT. I HAVE TALKED TO MANY PEOPLE I SEE WITH THEM, MANY CAR SALES PEOPLE AND DEALERS AND SOMETIMES PEOPLE WILL COME UP TO ME WHILE GETTING GAS, COMPLIMENT ON THE CONDITION OF MINE, AND ASK IF I HAVE THE PROBLEM AND MANY OF THEM HAS A NEWER VEHICLE AND/OR OLDER VEHICLE. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR TO GET REPAIRED AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. I REALLY DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY THIS AND MAKE MY MONTHLY PAYMENTS ALSO. CAN YOU HELP ME AND THE MANY OTHERS? YOU FILL UP WITH GAS AND THE GAUGE GOES TO EMPTY UNTIL SUCH TIME IT GOES BACK TO READING SOMETHING AND A COUPLE OF TIMES HAS CAUSED US TO RUN OUT OF GAS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. THE CONTACT WAS ACCELERATING 5 MPH FROM A TRAFFIC STOP WHEN THE VEHICLE ABNORMALLY LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND LEFT. ONE WEEK PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER IN REGARDS TO AN UNUSUAL RUMBLING IN THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS LEAKING INTO THE RADIATOR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 58,500.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT STARTED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE FUEL GAUGE WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN SHE FIRST FUELS UP THE GAS GAUGE WORKS FINE. SHE STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE STOPS WORKING BETWEEN THREE QUARTERS OF A TANK AND A HALF OF A TANK. THE FAILURE HAD BEEN ON GOING FOR TWO YEARS AND THREE MONTHS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER BUT THE CONTACT REFUSED TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 100,800.

PROBLEM AS DESCRIBED BY NISSAN SERVICE TECH: XTERRA WAS TOWED TO US WITH THE CONCERN "MY XTERRA IS SLIPPING, WILL NOT GO BACKWARDS, WILL NOT DRIVE IN DRIVE, ONLY DRIVE IN 3RD, HOOKED UP TO COMPUTER AND CAME UP P1716". WE CONFIRMED THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE IN REVERSE, AS IT WAS TOWED IN AND PARKED SO THAT BACKING UP WAS THE ONLY OPTION. THE CODE P1716 IS RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION TURBINE CIRCUIT NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. UPON FURTHER DIAGNOSIS, WE REMOVED THE RADIATOR CAP TO FIND THE RADIATOR FILLED WITH THE MILKY COMBINATION OF COOLANT AND TRANSMISSION FLUID. THE RADIATOR IS A SUB-LEVEL RADIATOR, WHERE THE TOP PORTION IS FOR COOLANT AND THE BOTTOM PORTION IS FOR COOLING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. THE RADIATOR CRACKED INTERNALLY CAUSING THE FLUIDS TO MIX. THE TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR NEED TO BE REPLACED TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEMS. NEW TRANSMISSION IS $3215.71 WITH THE ESTIMATED ARRIVAL DATE OF TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 21. THE NEW RADIATOR IS $538, CURRENTLY IN STOCK. THE LABOR ESTIMATE IS $1442.70. THE ESTIMATED COMPLETION OF WORK IS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, WITH ESTIMATED TOTAL BILL COMING TO $5560.16 TAX INCLUDED. *TR

FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT FAILS AT 1/4 OF TANK/THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON. *TR

IN THE PAST MONTH I HAVE EXPERIENCED A SERIES OF ANOMALIES WITH MY FUEL GAUGE. I INITIALLY NOTICED THIS WHEN I COMPLETELY REFILLED MY GAS TANK ONLY TO NOTICE THAT THE GAUGE SHOWED 7/8THS FULL. IT SEEMED ODD, BUT I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS AN ISSUE AS THE PUMP MAY HAVE AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF PREMATURELY. TURNS OUT TO NOT BE THE CASE. ON MY NEXT TRIP TO THE GAS STATION, UPON REFILLING THE GAS TANK, MY GAUGE ONLY READ A HALF TANK. UPON MY NEXT TRIP IN THE VEHICLE, THE GAUGE READ PROPERLY. HOWEVER, SUBSEQUENT TRIPS THE GAUGE READ SOMETIMES MORE THAN IT SHOULD AND SOMETIMES LESS THAN IT SHOULD. FOR EXAMPLE, AFTER GOING 78 MILES THE GAUGE STILL READ "FULL", AND THEN AFTER GOING 96 MILES THE GAUGE READ "HALF FULL". AFTER REFILLING THE GAS TANK THIS LAST TIME, THE GAUGE READ 3/4 OF A TANK. THE NEXT TRIP THE GAUGE READ "FULL". SUBSEQUENT TRIPS THE GAUGE READS SOMETIMES MORE THAN IT SHOULD AND SOMETIMES LESS THAN IT SHOULD. THE LAST COUPLE OF TRIPS THE GAUGE SHOWED THE SAME AMOUNT EACH TIME EVEN THOUGH I HAVE DRIVEN MORE THAN 60 MILES. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALER (WHERE I'VE HAD SERVICE PERFORMED BEFORE) TO CHECK FOR A RECALL AS I HAD HEARD THERE WERE VEHICLES WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. APPARENTLY, NISSAN HAS ISSUED THE RECALL FOR "SOME" MODELS AND YEARS BUT NOT FOR MINE. THEY OFFERED TO "DIAGNOSE" THE PROBLEM, FOR THEIR USUAL SHOP FEE NATURALLY. YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THIS ISSUE IS NOT LIMITED TO THE MODEL YEARS ALLOWED IN THE RECALL. I HAVE BEEN READING ON ONLINE FORUM WIT

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN XTERRA THAT HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT. THE GAS GAUGE TAKES A LONG TIME TO REGISTER THAT THE TANK IS FULL AND NOW THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. I HAVE READ MANY FORUMS WHERE PEOPLE WITH BOTH THE XTERRA AND PATHFINDER ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THEY DID A RECALL ON THE 2001-2003 XTERRA FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. HOW IS THIS NOT A RECALL. THIS IS AN EXPENSE THAT OWNERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BEAR AS IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. CONSUMERS NEED HELP WITH THIS ISSUE. *TR
