Defect. NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2004-2006 ARMADA, TITAN, INFINITI QX56 AND MODEL YEAR 2005-2006 FRONTIER, PATHFINDER AND XTERRA VEHICLES. THE INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE (IPDM) ASSEMBLY CONTAINS AN ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM) RELAY THAT HAS A DIODE FOR ELECTRICAL CURRENT NOISE REDUCTION. THE ECM RELAY MAY ALLOW SILICON VAPOR TO FORM AND, OVER TIME, THE SILICON EVAPORATES FROM THE DIODE MOLDING WHICH CAUSES SILICON OXIDE TO DEVELOP ON THE ECM RELAY CONTACT DUE TO ARCING.

Risk. THIS COULD CAUSE ENGINE STALLING INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE ECM RELAY INSIDE THE IPDM ASSEMBLY. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 6, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.

Defect. NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN FRONT AND REAR LOWER LINKS, P/NOS. 54501ZQ00A, 54500ZQ00A, 551A1ZQ00A, 551A0ZQ00A , 54501EA00A, 54500EA00A, 551A1EA500, 551A0EA500, 54501ZR00A, AND 54500ZR00A, SOLD BETWEEN NOVEMBER 25, 2009 AND MAY 14, 2010 AS REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR MODEL YEAR 2004 THROUGH 2010 TITAN, ARMADA, AND QX56, AND MODEL YEARS 2005 THROUGH 2010 FRONTIER, XTERRA, AND PATHFINDER VEHICLES. THE LOWER CONTROL LINK ASSEMBLY HAS TWO CYLINDRICAL COLLARS FORMING THE INBOARD ATTACHMENT POINTS TO THE CHASSIS. DUE TO AN IMPROPER WELDING PROCESS SOME COLLARS MAY CONTAIN WELDS THAT DO NOT MEET STRENGTH SPECIFICATIONS.

Risk. IF THE COLLAR WELD SEPARATES, THE VEHICLE HANDLING WILL DETERIORATE, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH.

Remedy. NISSAN WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND DEALERS WILL REPLACE ANY AFFECTED LOWER LINK FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON JULY 12, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.

Defect. NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006 AND MODEL YEAR 2008 FRONTIER, XTERRA AND PATHFINDER VEHICLES. THE MOLDED FUEL TANK SHELLS CAN DEFORM, CAUSING THE FUEL SENDER FLOAT ARM TO CONTACT AN EMBOSSMENT MOLDED INTO THE TANK SHELL CAUSING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE TO SHOW THAT THE VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY ONE QUARTER TANK WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS EMPTY.

Risk. THIS COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF GAS AND STALL IN TRAFFIC, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FUEL LEVEL SENDING UNIT INSIDE THE FUEL TANK WITH A NEW ONE THAT HAS A MODIFIED FLOAT ARM. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON OR BEFORE MARCH 22, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.

Defect.

IN THOSE AREAS OF THE COUNTRY WHICH USE HEAVY CONCENTRATIONS OF ROAD SALT IN THE WINTER, A MIXTURE OF SNOW/WATER AND SALT CAN ENTER INTO THE FRONT CRASH ZONE SENSOR (CZS) HOUSING. IF THIS OCCURS, THE CZS MAY INTERNALLY RUST RESULTING IN A SIGNAL INTERRUPTION. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE RED AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE TO ALERT THE VEHICLE OPERATOR.

Risk. THIS ISSUE COULD RESULT IN THE NON-DEPLOYMENT OF THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER FRONT AIR BAGS IN A CRASH, INCREASING THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FRONT CZS WITH A REDESIGNED SENSOR. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JANUARY 26, 2009.

Defect. CERTAIN HOPKINS AFTERMARKET TRAILER BRAKE CONTROL CONNECTION HARNESSES SOLD FOR USE ON CERTAIN MODELS OF NISSAN VEHICLES WHICH ARE LISTED ABOVE. THE INTERNAL PART NUMBERS WITHIN HOPKINS ARE: 1010476025, 1040376025, 1110476025, 1170376025, 1290376025, 1010476035, 1040376035, 1110476035, 1170376035, AND 1290376035. A WIRE MAY HAVE BEEN PLACED IN AN INCORRECT POSITION IN THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR HOUSING. THIS RESULTS IN AN INCORRECT ROUTING OF WIRES BETWEEN THE TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER AND THE TOWING VEHICLE WIRING SYSTEM.

Risk. THIS HARNESS WOULD RESULT IN POWER FROM THE TRAILER BRAKE CONTROLLER GOING TO THE TOWING VEHICLE DASH LIGHT CIRCUIT RATHER THAN THE TRAILER BRAKES. THIS RESULT WOULD BE THE LACK OF TRAILER BRAKING WHEN THE TOWING VEHICLE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. IT WOULD ALSO RESULT IN THE TOWING VEHICLES DASH LIGHTS BEING ACTIVATED WHEN THE VEHICLE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THE FAILURE OF THE APPLICATION OF THE TRAILER BRAKE COULD RESULT IN REDUCED ABILITY TO STOP AND CONTRIBUTE TO A POSSIBLE CRASH.

Remedy. HOPKINS WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND REPLACE THE ORIGINAL HARNESS WITH A REVISED HARNESS FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN AUGUST 17, 2007. OWNERS CAN CONTACT HOPKINS AT 800-835-0129.

Timing chains making noises and I have change my oil and it still making the noise...

Car just shut off in traffic loosing all power and braking causing me to crash into the back of a stopped car at a red-light. After inspection from a mechanic shop, they informed me that something in the computer had fried causing the car to shut off, and it had also caused the transmission control unit module to go bad making the car not drive able.

Engine noise: - Noise coming from time belt support - The timing chain guide wore out fast. - Timing chain guide inner plastic wore out causing chain to rely metal bracket then the metal causing noise and eventually break the the timing chain.

Check engine light is on and fuel gauge does not work Can go from full to empty Stays on empty even though I know there is gasoline in tank Has caused us to run out of gas middle of nowhere

The contact owns a 2006 Nissan Xterra. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, the vehicle was shaking. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who replaced the catalytic converter; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was towed back to the independent mechanic, who diagnosed that there was an engine misfire and the other catalytic converter needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 136,900.

On the invoice/receipt the part of automobile is Plenium Seal CK WP. The remarks/labor description on invoice indicates repairing vacuum hose at read of throttle. My car simply stalled while driving on a main busy street. Fortunately, it was on a holiday (Feb 21, 2022) and there were no school crossings on this day!. I was shaken up, anxious. There was a nearby (with in a quarter mile or so) an independent auto repair/service shop and I was able to have them fix the issue. I feel this is a safety issue, as this could have been worse, and stalled while driving on the freeway. I will be writing to the manufacturer to inform them what has happened. There were no other warning signs prior to the vehicle stalling while driving.

The contact owns a 2006 Nissan Xterra. The contact stated while driving 60 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled with the fuel level warning light illuminated. The fuel gauge failed to operate as needed. The vehicle was towed to a parking lot. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer nor independent mechanic. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 159,000.

The transmission was destroyed because a factory default with the radiator leaking antifreeze and transmission fluid into the transmission causing my transmission to self destruct. my safety was not safe since Nissan knew about the defect and I could have ceased into Anything at any time. There was no warning lights it just self destruct. Nissan has done nothing to inspect their failure. It is a well known problem.

My engine self destruct because Nissan used cheap made plastic tensioners that shredded metal into my engine causing it to self destruct. Nissan knew about this problem and continued installing these tensioners from 2005-2015. I could have crashed into anything while driving or someone could have hit me if my engine would’ve died while driving. My safety was not prioritized by Nissan. The warning light was a whining noise coming from the engine while startup and pressing on the gas pedal. So they knew the problem existed but didn’t care.

WHEN I TURN THE KEY IN THE ON POSITION ALL LIGHTS COME ON AND THE MOTOR DOES TURN OVER. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE STARTER AND A WEEK LATER IT DOES THE SAME SO I RAN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND P0181 CODE AND 3RD COIL PACK MISFIRE COMES ON. WHEN I CONTACT NISSAN MECHANIC HE SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE IPDM AND THATS WHY I'M CONTACTING YOU ALL

TRANSMISSION STARTED JERKING AND RADIATOR BLEW AT THE SAME TIME

THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL FOR RADIATORS IN NISSAN XTERRAS IN 2019 , I WAS NEVER INFORMED ABOUT THIS RECALL OR SERVICE BULLETINS EVEN THOUGH NISSAN KNOWS I OWN THE VEHICLE IN THEIR DATABASE ALSO THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH THE IPDM BOX WHICH IS DEFECTIVE ACCORDING TO THE NISSAN PAGES ON FACEBOOK AND OTHER SITES, WHERE THE WHITE IPDM BOX IS DEFECTIVE AND CAUSES POWER LOSS AND LIGHTS NOT WORKING ALONG WITH CAR STALLING WHILE DRIVING, IT IS APPARENTLY A DEFECT AND THE COST TO REPLACE IT IS OVER I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE XTERRA TRANSMISSION COOLER DEFECT OR RECALL BACK IN 2019, IVE OWNED THIS XTERRA SINCE 2008 AND ITS BEEN TO THE DEALER FOR ANOTHER PREVIOUS RECALL, ALSO THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE WHITE IPDM BOX, (FUSE BOX) WHICH SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED, PER THE NISSAN OWNERS FACEBOOK PAGE, AND OTHER BLOGS THE IPDM CAUSES STALLING AND SHUTDOWNS OF ALL FUNCTIONS IN THE 2005-2014 NISSANS, CONSUMERS ARE HAVING TO PAY UPWARDS OF $600 TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THESE DEFECTIVE IPDM BOXES, THERE IS A KNOWN DEFECT WHICH WAS RECALLED YEARS AGO ABOUT A RELAY FOR THAT BOX, I BELIEVE MY XTERRA RELAY WAS FIXED, BUT I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE VDC/ SLIP LIGHT COMING ON AND MY HEADLIGHTS GO ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. ACCORDING TO THE WEBSITES IT HAS TO DO WITH THE WHITE IPDM BOX UNDERNEATH WHERE THE WIRES ARE HARNESSED, THIS NEEDS TO BE ADRESSED IT IS A SAFETY HAZZARD WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY OR IN TOWN BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS TOTALLY DISABLED AND WILL CAUSE INJURY/DEATH IVE B

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALLS ASSOCIATED WITH THE VIN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

I WAS REQUIRED TO REPLACE THE OEM RADIATOR DUE TO APPEARANCE OF CROSS-CONTAMINATION BETWEEN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID AND ENGINE COOLANT. THE DISCOVERY WAS MADE EARLY ENOUGH TO AVOID BEING STRANDED. IT IS UNKNOWN WHETHER THE AMOUNT OF CONTAMINATION THAT PRECEDED THE REPLACEMENT HAS CAUSED PERMANENT DAMAGE, BUT THE VEHICLE IS FUNCTIONING NORMALLY AS OF THIS MOMENT. I AM AWARE THAT NISSAN HAS BEEN CHALLENGED ON THE TOPIC OF EXTENDED WARRANTY SUPPORT AND/OR RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE OVER A SPAN OF YEARS, AND THIS REPORT IS FILED TO ADD A DATA POINT.

VEHICLE HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES, BOTH IN MOTION AND PARKED. THERE WERE NO WARNING SIGNALS, STRANGE NOISES, OR OTHER INDICATORS TO POINT TO THE ISSUE. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN TRYING TO USE THE OBD PORT TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE, THE OBD PORT WILL NOT READ AND ONLY GIVES AN ERROR. *TR

FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. PUT GAS IN AND IT DOES NOT REGISTER. HAVING TO KEEP TRACK OF MILEAGE WHEN GAS IS PUT IN. SAW A RECALL CAMPAIGN 10V075000 AND CONTACTED MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED IF UNDER RECALL WOULD BE REPAIRED AT NO CHARGE WOULD INQUIRE WITH SERVICE ADVISORS WAS THEN CONTACTED TO SCHEDULE APPOINTMENT. TOOK IT IN THIS MORNING AND I WAS ADVISED NO RECALL.? IS THIS A LEGIT RECALL AND IF SO I NEED IT LISTED UNDER MY VIN SO I CAN GET THIS FIXED.

I PURCHASED A 2006 NISSAN XTERRA WITH 36K MILES. MAY 15TH, 2009. I CURRENTLY HAVE 112K MILES ON IT AND HAVE A NOT START A/T CONT FUSE BLOWN ISSUE. MY SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON AND TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THERE WAS A CODE STATING A SPEED DIFFERENTIAL BETWEEN THE FRONT AND REAR OF THE TRANSMISSION. SOON AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION, MY MECHANIC VERIFIED RADIATOR FLUID LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND I WILL NEED TO REPLACE BOTH MY RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION TO THE APPROX COST OF $5500. NEEDLESS TO SAY, NOT ONLY IS THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED, BUT I WILL HAVE TO PAY THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE REPAIR OUT OF POCKET SINCE THE LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST NISSAN CONCERNING THIS ISSUE EXPIRED IN 2013.

A LA SEMANA DE MARZO 30 DEL 2019 QUE SAQUE ESTA CAMIONETA DEL DEALER HAPPY'S AUTO, LLC EN HAYS, KS 67601. ESTE PRESENTO UN CALENTAMIENTO DEL MOTOR, TUBE QUE PAGAR PARA QUE LE CAMBIARAN EN TERMOSTATO, PERO SIGUIO EL PROBLEMA SIEMPRE HASTA QUE ME DIJERON LOS DEL MISMO DEALER QUE EL MOTOR YA NO SERVIA. DI 2200 DOLLARS DE PAGO, DIJERON QUE TENIA YO QUE PAGAR OTRO MOTOR MAS EL COSTO 11,072 DOLLARS DE LA CAMIONETA. ES UN ROBO, ME ENTREGARON LA CAMIONETA CON EL ESTEREO MAL, LA REFACCION NO ME LA PUSIERON ABAJO EN SU LUGAR, LO CUAL CAUSO QUE SE ME QUEBRARA UN PLASTICO DE LA CAJUELA TRADERS. AL FINAL LES DIJE QUE NO QUERIA MAS LA CAMIONETA Y ME DIJERON QUE ESTABA BIEN PERO NO ME DEVOLVERIAN MI DINERO, NUNCA ME ENSEARON EL HISTORIAL MECANICO DE LA CAMIONETA. LA CAMIONETA YA TENIA MAS DE 150000 MILLAS. AHORA AUTO CHOICES,LLC ME ESTA COBRANDO POR UNA CAMIONETA QUE NO TENGO PORQUE ELLOS SE LA QUEDARON, QUE ME FALLO SIEMPRE Y CON UN INTERES DEL 20% ANUAL. NECECITO AYUDA POR FAVOR.

ON 6/12/2018 PULLED INTO MY GARAGE AT HOME AND ON TURNING ENGINE OFF SAW ELECTRICAL SPARK UNDER HOOD AND SUV WENT UP IN FLAMES. FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT AVAILABLE.

MY TRANSMISSION AND DRIVE SHAFT WENT OUT OF MY VEHICLE TODAY OUT OF NOWHERE. I HAVE A NEW JOB TO GET TO AND NO MONEY TO FIX OR REPLACE THIS VEHICLE. IT'S RIDICULOUS CONSIDERING IT ONLY HAS 136,000 MILES ON IT. I WAS 2 MILES FROM MY HOUSE AND DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20MPH AND IT JUST STOPPED ACCELERATING. I WAS STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN 5 DEGREE WEATHER. I AM BEYOND DISMAYED AND COMPLETELY WITHOUT OPTIONS.

I PURCHASED A 2006 NISSAN XTERRA AFTER-MARKET IN AUGUST 2019, MILEAGE 144K. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF A PROBLEM DURING A TEST-DRIVE, AND IT OTHERWISE APPEARED TO BE IN GOOD CONDITION. THREE DAYS LATER, DURING CITY DRIVING, THE CAR BEGAN TO STRAIN TO ENTER FIRST GEAR FROM A STOPPED POSITION (STOP SIGN, TRAFFIC LIGHT), FIRST A LITTLE, AND THEN SIGNIFICANTLY, AND BEGAN OBSTRUCTING TRAFFIC-FLOW, AND BEGAN OVERHEATING AFTER MULTIPLE STOP/STARTS. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO GET THE CAR HOME (4 MILES) WITHOUT HAVING TO PULL OVER AND CALL A TOW-TRUCK. A TRIP TO THE TRANSMISSION SHOP ON THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY CONFIRMED NOT JUST A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, BUT WAS TOLD IT WAS DUE TO A KNOWN DEFECT IN NISSAN SUV-TYPE VEHICLES FROM THIS TIME-PERIOD. THE CAR FROM THE USED DEALER CAME WITH "CAR PROTECTION PLUS" COVERAGE SPECIFICALLY FOR POWER-TRAIN ISSUES, WHO DENIED THAT THEY WOULD COVER THIS PARTICULAR TRANSMISSION PROBLEM FOR THIS REASON. I NOW OWN A VERY EXPENSIVE PAPERWEIGHT, OR PAY A REPAIR BILL OF $3K-$4K TO FIX A TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR THAT IS MORE THAN THE VALUE OF THE CAR.

THE METAL TUBES THAT SEPARATE ENGINE COOLANT FROM THE TRANSMISSION FLUID CRACK. COOLANT AND TRANSMISSION FLUID MIXES AND CAUSE THE TRANSMISSION TO FAIL. THE SUBSTANCE IS MILKY, AND CLOUDY LIKE A MILK SHAKE. CAR WAS IN MOTION ON THE CITY WE WERE COMING FROM THE STORE.

I HAVE AN NISSAN XTERRA WITH A BAD RADIATOR , IT IS LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID, ACCORDING TO THE INTERNET NISSAN HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS DEFECT FOR OVER 13 YEARS AND HAS NEVER ISSUED A RECALL, I THINK IT NEEDS TO RECALLED DUE TO BAD RADIATORS THAT LEAK TRANSMISSION FLUID AND ANTIFREEZE TOGETHER, NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE DEFECT BUT HAS DONE NOTHING TO FIX OR ADRESS THE ISSUES ALL NISSAN XTERRA OWNERS HAD DUE TO THE DEFECT, INCLUDING REPLACEMENT OF TRANSMISSIONS AND RADIATORS AND OTHER PARTS RELATED TO THE DEFECT, IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE IF THE TRANSMISSION LOCKS UP ON THE ROADWAY AT ANY SPEED LIMIT..

FUEL GAUGE INACCURACY WHEN FULL READ 1/4 AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. NTB10-031 MARCH 18,2010 HAS A SAFETY RECALL ON THIS. THE CAR IS A 2006 BUT HAS LOW MILEAGE AND HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER SINCE MARCH 2010. MY SERVICE MANAGER AT NISSAN OF MELBOURNE HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN XTERRA. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SWAYED FROM LANE TO LANE. THE VEHICLE DRIFTED WITHOUT TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL.

THE CONTACT FILED A CASE WITH THE MANUFACTURER AND RECEIVED A CASE NUMBER. A CASE MANAGER WAS SCHEDULED TO CALL THE CONTACT BACK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,000.

RADIATOR COOLANT LEAKED INTO TRANSMISSION AND WE ONLY HAVE 70,000 MILEAGE. PURCHASED EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT NISSAN SERVICE SAID THEY DON'T COVERE THE REPAIR AND OUR EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED. WE SAVED THIS CAT FOR OUR 16 YEARS OLD SON FOR HIS COLLEGE SOON ANG PREPARING FOR DMV. WE SAVE MONEY FOR HIS CAR SO WE DON'T NEED TO WORRY. NOW, WE ARE WORRIED BECAUSE IT WILL COST US$8,000 FOR REPAIR BY REPLACING TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR. BESIDES THIS I HAVE TO PAY $190.00 FOR DIAGNOSTIC FEE. WE ARE NOT RICH AND WE PREPARED THIS CAR FOR OUR SON, FOR HIS SAFETY, NOW HIS 16 YEARS OLD THIS JUNE 2019 AND READY TO TAKE THE WHEELS, THIS CAR IS HIS CAR FOR COLLEGE. NOW, I'M HEARTBREAKING BECAUSE IT'S GARAGE KEPT CAR WITH BLANKET ALL THE TIME. 70K MILEAGE ONLY. SECURITY PLUS SAYS 72 MONTHS/75,000 ON ODOMETER. WE REALLY NEED HELP FOR REPAIR.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DICK SMITH NISSAN OF COLUMBIA (803-256-6600, LOCATED AT 9940 TWO NOTCH RD, COLUMBIA, SC 29223) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN RECOMMENDED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT "THE FUEL LEVEL SENDING UNIT INSIDE THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED". THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS NOT PERFORMED AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 62,000.

APRIL 5, 2019 I PURCHASED A 2006 NISSAN XTERRA WITH 126K MILES. MAY 15TH, 2019 MY SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON AND TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THERE WAS A CODE STATING A SPEED DIFFERENTIAL BETWEEN THE FRONT AND REAR OF THE TRANSMISSION. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO AAMCO AND AFTER INSPECTION, THEY VERIFIED WATER FROM THE RADIATOR LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND I WILL NEED TO REPLACE BOTH MY RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION TO THE APPROX COST OF $5800. NEEDLESS TO SAY, NOT ONLY IS THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED, BUT I WILL HAVE TO PAY THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE REPAIR OUT OF POCKET SINCE THE LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST NISSAN CONCERNING THIS ISSUE EXPIRED IN 2013.

FUEL PUMP SENDING UNIT AS REPORTED BY THE MANUFACTURER BACK IN 2010

THIS VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED WITH PLASTIC TENSIONER GUIDES TO THE SECONDARY TIMING CHAINS. THE ENGINE IS DESIGNED WITH AN "INTERFERENCE" TIMING CHAIN WHICH MEANS THAT IF THE TIMING CHAIN BREAKS, IT RESULTS IN CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE WITHOUT WARNING. ALTHOUGH NISSAN DID NOT DESIGN THE TIMING CHAIN AS A MAINTENANCE ITEM, THE PLASTIC GUIDES WEAR OUT LONG AFTER THE VEHICLE WARRANTY EXPIRES. ALTHOUGH THEY CORRECTED THE PROBLEM IN SUBSEQUENT MODEL YEARS, THEY NEVER CONTACTED OR NOTIFIED THE AFFECTED OWNERS OF THE PROBLEM THAT UNLESS THESE GUIDES ARE REPLACED THEY WILL EVENTUALLY RESULT IN THE SECONDARY TIMING CHAINS WEARING OUT THE GUIDES CAUSING THE SECONDARY CHAINS THEMSELVES TO RUN METAL ON METAL AGAINST THE TENSIONERS. BECAUSE OF THIS CONTINUED WEAR, THE SECONDARY TIMING CHAINS MAY FAIL AT ANY TIME THE ENGINE IS ON WITHOUT WARNING AND DESTROY THE ENGINE. NISSAN ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE PROBLEM BUT FAILED TO NOTIFY OWNERS THAT AS THE VEHICLES APPROACH APPROXIMATELY 100,000 MILES OR MORE, THE SECONDARY TIMING CHAINS MAY FAIL. I HAVE ATTACHED PHOTOS OF THE SECONDARY TIMING CHAIN TENSIONERS REMOVED FROM MY VEHICLE WHICH SHOW THE PLASTIC GUIDE ON ONE NEARLY COMPLETELY WORN THROUGH, AND THE OTHER ONE BROKEN WITH ONLY HALF OF THE PLASTIC GUIDE STILL IN PLACE ON THE TENSIONER. I ALSO INCLUDED MY REPAIR RECEIPT FOR THE $2,123.40 REPAIR. FINALLY, I INCLUDED THE NISSAN TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THEY RECALLED THE V8 ENGINES WITH

I BOUGHT A USED 2006 XTERRA AND I HAD NO IDEA THAT THE TRANSMISSION COOLERS FAIL PREMATURELY. ALL SEEMED OK FOR 2 WEEKS. ONE DAY DRIVING BACK FROM DROPPING MY 2 DAUGHTERS OFF AT THEIR MOTHERS HOUSE, I WAS ON AN INCLINE, IN A BLIND CURVE, AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED PULLING COMPLETELY. WHILE STOPPED I TRIED TO CHECK THE TRANS FLUID AND WAS ALMOST RAN OVER BY A TRACTOR AND TRAILER BECAUSE HE COULDNT SEE THROUGH THE CURVE TO KNOW I WAS BROKE DOWN IN THE ROAD. THEN 10 MINUTES OR SO GOES BY AND A MINIVAN COMES AROUND THE CURVE AND HAD TO LOCK HIS BRAKES UP TO KEEP FROM RUNNING INTO ME. I WAS ALMOST HIT 2 TIMES IN A MATTER OF 20 - 30 MINUTES WAITING FOR HELP TO ARRIVE.
