TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. DROVE HOME AFTERWORK LET VEHICLE SIT FOR NO MORE THAN 15 MINS. PROCEEDED TO DRIVE VEHICLE OUT OF DRIVE WAY AT WHICH TIME I HAD NOTICED NO POWER ENGINE VERY SLUGGISH. IF IT WERE A STANDARD STICK SHIFT VEHICLE IT SEEMED AS IT WAS STARTING IN 3RD OR 4TH GEAR. I CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, PROCEEDED UP A SLIGHT INCLINE OF WHICH I NEEDED TO FLOOR THE GAS PEDAL. MY CAR HAS NOW BEEN AT TONY NISSAN DEALERSHIP SINCE MAY 6, 2004. THEY HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE ARE OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME REPORTED PROBLEM, HOWEVER THEY ARE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH NISSAN TECH LINE, PER NISSAN TECH LINE UNTIL THE DEALERSHIP CAN "DUPLICATE" THE PROBLEM THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. PER TONY NISSAN GM HIS SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS CHECKED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE THEY DON'T SEE ANY PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE THAT IT IS "OKAY TO DRIVE". I ACKNOWLEDGED, I'D PICK UP MY VEHICLE IF HE'S SAYING IT SAFE TO DRIVE, HOWEVER IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO MYSELF OR FAMILY,I WILL HOLD TONY NISSAN AND THE GM LIABLE DUE TO THE FACT IT'S A REPORTED PROBLEM BUT, THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE IT. AS I SPOKE TO THE GM, I READ TO HIM 9 COMPLAINTS LISTED ON THIS WEBSITE REGARDING THIS TRANSMISSION ISSUE. MY COMPLAINT SHOULD MAKE 10, NOT TO MENTION THE OTHER VEHICLES HERE ON THE ISLAND OF OAHU.*AK

POWER SLIDING DOORS RATTLE SEVERLY AND DO NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. SOMETIMES THE LATCH IN THE DOOR STICKS IN THE CLOSED POSITION AND WILL NOT ALLOW THE DOOR TO CLOSE AND LATCH. BACK HATCH OPENS ON ITS OWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES, ONCE AS WE WERE BACKING OUT OF THE GARAGE AND IT RIPPED OFF THE COVER OVER THE LICENSE PLATE LIGHTS. SOMETIMES THE IGNITION SWITCH WILL NOT TURN TO THE OFF POSITION. THE KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION IF THE SWITCH IS NOT IN THE OFF POSITION.

ON CERTAIN MINI VANS EQUIPPED WITH A FOLDING THIRD ROW REAR SEAT, WHEN THE THIRD ROW SEAT IS RAISED FROM ITS STOWED POSITION, IT ENGAGES STRIKER BRACKETS, ONE ON EACH SIDE OF THE SEAT CUSHION. THE FOLD-AWAY STRIKER LOOP IS WELDED TO A MOUNTING BRACKET. THE STRIKER MAY BECOME DETACHED FROM ITS MOUNTING BRACKET DUE TO A BROKEN WELD AT THE POINT OF ATTACHMENT TO THE BRACKET.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THE THIRD ROW SEAT STRIKER WELD FAILS, THE STRIKER COULD SEPARATE FROM THE MOUNTING BRACKET. STRIKER SEPARATION COULD AFFECT THE RISK OF INJURY IN CERTAIN TYPES OF CRASHES.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE THIRD ROW SEAT STRIKER BRACKETS FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 19, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
ON CERTAIN MINI VANS, THERE IS A SEAT ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM THAT CONTAINS EXPOSED MOVING COMPONENTS LOCATED AT THE REAR INSIDE EDGE OF THE SECOND ROW SEAT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: WHEN THE OPERATOR ATTEMPTS SEAT ADJUSTMENT, A FINGER MAY BE PINCHED IN THE MOVING SEAT ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM WHICH COULD CAUSE AN INJURY.
Remedy: ON EARLIER MODEL VEHICLES BUILT THROUGH JUNE 28, 2004, DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE INBOARD SECOND ROW SEAT ADJUSTMENT HANDLE, RIVET A PLASTIC REINFORCEMENT TO BACKSIDE OF THE EXISTING SEAT BACK COVER CARPETING, INSTALL TIE-DOWNS AND A FLANGE TO THE INBOARD SIDE SHIELD. ON VEHICLES PRODUCED FROM JUNE 29, 2004 THROUGH SEPTEMBER 26, 2005, DEALERS WILL RIVET A PLASTIC REINFORCEMENT TO THE BACKSIDE OF THE EXISTING SEAT BACK COVER CARPETING, INSTALL TIE-DOWNS AND A FLANGE ON THE INBOARD SIDE SHIELD. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 19, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
ON CERTAIN MINIVANS EQUIPPED WITH A POWER SLIDING DOOR(S), AT AN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE BELOW APPROXIMATELY 40 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT, THE ACTUATOR FOR THE POWER SLIDING DOOR(S) MAY EXPERIENCE BINDING DUE TO AN OUT-OF-SPECIFICATION CONDITION. IN ORDER TO OPEN, CLOSE OR REVERSE A POWER SLIDING DOOR, THE SHIFT SELECTOR LEVER MUST BE IN "PARK." IF THE ACTUATOR IS EXPERIENCING BINDING AND THE DRIVER SHIFTS THE VEHICLE OUT OF "PARK" WHILE A POWER SLIDING DOOR IS STILL CLOSING, THE DOOR LATCHES MAY NOT ENGAGE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CAN RESULT IN THE DOOR COMING OPEN UNEXPECTEDLY UPON RAPID ACCELERATION, AND AN OCCUPANT COULD FALL OUT OF THE DOOR AND BE INJURED.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE ACTUATOR FOR THE POWER SLIDING DOOR(S). OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 23, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE ADVANCED AIR BAG REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 208, "OCCUPANT CRASH PROTECTION." THE AIR BAG FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS TO BE TURNED OFF (SO THAT IT DOES NOT INFLATE) WHEN CERTAIN OCCUPANTS, SUCH AS SMALL CHILDREN, ARE IN THE FRONT SEAT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS REDUCES THE RISK OF SUCH OCCUPANTS BEING UNJURED BY AN INFLATING AIR BAG IN A COLLISION.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION/SENSOR ASSEMBLY. IF THE SEAT CUSHION/SENSOR IS FOUND TO BE OPERATING IMPROPERLY, THE SEAT WILL BE REMOVED AND RECALIBRATED. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN ON JUNE 23, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.
