I WAS DRIVING MY 2006 XTERRA ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THERE WAS A CLUNK AND IT STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY. DROVE CAR TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS. DEALERSHIP DETERMINED THAT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM - THE RADIATOR FAILED, LEAKING COOLANT INTO THE TRANSMISSION. BOTH RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION WERE DESTROYED. NISSAN DECIDED TO NOT PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE. UNABLE TO AFFORD REPAIR, SO HAD TO SELL THE VEHICLE AS JUNK AT A LOSS. *TR

WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE FREEWAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO LOSE SPEED. PULLED OFF THE FREEWAY AND THE CAR WOULD JUST ROLL. UPON ACCERALTING THE VEHICLE THE ENGINE WOULD JUST REV. TOOK CAR TO TRANSMISSION SHOP AND THE MECHANIC ADVISED ME THAT THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION WAS RUINED DUE TO RADIATOR COOLANT BEING LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION. PRIOR TO THIS I HAD THE RADIATOR INSPECTED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS IN THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS SINCE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY HAD BEEN PLACED ON THE VEHICLE AND I HAD ALREADY SURPASSED THE MILEAGE OF THE WARRANTY. THE RADIATOR SHOWED NO SIGNS OF WEAR AND TEAR. *TR

THE DEALER CLAIMS THE REPAIR INCLUDES REMOVING THE TENSIONER AND REPLACING WITH AN UPGRADED PART AS THEY KNOW THE ORIGINAL PART IS FAULTY. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN IN 2009 NTB07-042A, BUT REFUSES TO FIX THIS PART IN THEIR VEHICLES. THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED! *TR

ON JUNE 7, 2012, NISSAN TOLD ME THAT MY RADIATOR FAILED CAUSING MY TRANSMISSION TO FAIL. I HAVE 3 CHILDREN AGES 7 WEEKS TO 5 YRS AND COUNT MY SELF LUCKY THAT THE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED BEFORE A POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING TRANSMISSION FAILURE ON BUSY LOS ANGELES COUNTY STREETS OR FREEWAYS. I WAS LATER APPALLED TO FIND OUT THAT NISSAN KNEW OF THE ISSUE, BUT COVERED IT UP AS EVIDENCED IN A NY TIMES ARTICLE DATED 8/24/2011. THE SERVICE ADVISOR AT THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT MY CAR SITUATION WAS AN ISSUE THAT HE HAD SEEN BEFORE. I AM NOW BEING TOLD THAT IT WILL COST ME $4000 FOR MY CAR TO BE REPAIRED DUE TO A KNOWN DEFECTIVE RADIATOR THAT WOULD HAVE COST A FRACTION OF THAT TO REPLACE. I AM STILL WITHOUT A CAR AFTER 11 DAYS. *JS

MY 21 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING OUR XTERRA IN ELLENSBURG, WASHINGTON 260 MILES IN THE DESERT WHEN THE CAR TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING! BROUGHT IT FOR TWO RELIABLE ESTIMATES AND LIKE ALL THE OTHERS THIS IS A CAUSE FROM A DEFECT IN THE RADIATOR THAT OBVIOUSLY NISSAN HAS KNOWN ABOUT FOR QUITE A LONG TIME. DO THEY NEED MORE BAD PRESS? I WILL BE PUTTING IT ON CRAIGSLIST AND ANY PLACE ELSE I CAN TO INCLUDE THE BACK WINDOW OF THE TRUCK. MY DAUGHTER WAS STRANDED!!!! IN THE MIDDLE OF A DESERT WITH NO CELL PHONE RECEPTION. DOES NISSAN WANT THE LIABILITY OF THIS? IT'S THERES BECAUSE THEY KNEW ABOUT THE FAULTY POWER TRAIN AND DID NOTHING. I HAVE ADDED MY NAME AND FILED A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST NISSAN FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT THEY FAIL TO RECOGNIZE. I DON'T GET IT AT ALL. IT'S THE ERROR OF NISSAN AND THEY NEED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR MESS! *TT

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.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: 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.

Consequence & remedy
Consequence: 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.

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.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: 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.
