Nissan Xterra 2001 — Problemas relatados

The vehicle disabled and the steering wheel locked on the highway once the speed hit 70mph. The wheel bearings are always rattling and if I go through a pothole the steering and tire feel really loose. The brake system doesn't feel right and has made a loud metal grind sound. The exhaust and or gasoline smell is way potent and not normal either it is strong smelling all the time. Potential recalls with fuel system, gasoline delivery, fuel pump and suspension, REAR , gasoline storage , tank assembly, filler pipe and cap. All are potential recalls also the exterior lighting

THE XTERRA STARTED MISSING AND HESITATING (ENGINE) EVENTUALLY DYING AND NOT RESTARTING. THE MISSING AND HESITATION OCCURRED WHILE UNDERWAY ON A BUSY 4 LANE DIVIDED HIGHWAY, BUT THANKFULLY MADE IT HOME BEFORE DYING AND NOT RESTARTING. MISSING AND HESITATION OCCURRED WHILE TRAVELING STRAIGHT ON AND WHILE STOPPED AT RED LIGHTS.

CAR FAILED TO START AFTER BEING PARKED OVERNIGHT. WOULD CRANK BUT NOT START. HAD IT DIAGNOSED AND THE FUEL SENDING UNIT REPLACED. THE DEAD UNIT HAD A HOLE THROUGH IT'S PLASTIC WHICH SHOWED A CORRODED ELECTRICAL TAB. IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE CORROSION FROM A CRACK IN THE PLASTIC AS STATED IN CAMPAIGN# 04V230000, BUT MORE LIKE THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION MELTED THROUGH THE PLASTIC, WHICH THEN ALLOWED CORROSION. NISSAN HOTLINE TOLD ME THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE RECALL TAKEN CARE OF ALREADY, BUT COULDN'T SAY IF THE UNIT WAS REPAIRED OR REPLACED.

WHILE DRIVING, ENGINE GOES TO IDLE MODE AND CAN'T ACCELERATE. I HAVE TO SHIFT TO NEUTRAL AND BACK TO DRIVE TO AGAIN DRIVE NORMALLY, THEN PROBLEM HAPPENS AGAIN AND HAVE TO DO THE SAME CONTINUOUSLY EVERY FEW MILES WHILE DRIVING.

MAJOR INTRUSION ON FRONT END AFTER A MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENT WITHOUT AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. THIS OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY AFTER SLIDING ON ICE AND BEING HIT HEAD ON BY A FORD F150.

THE TERMINAL STRIP ARE CORRODE AND CAN'T BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE PUMP GOT DAMAGE BY THE CORROSION OF THE TERMINAL, NOW NISSAN DO NOT WANT TO REPLACE THE PUMP. IS NOT MY FAULT THAT THEY USING PARTS THAT CAUSING THOSE TYPE OF PROBLEM. I CAN'T AFFORT TO PAY FOR THE PUMP PLUS LABOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 NISSAN XTERRA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 04V230000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) AND 02V299000 (SUSPENSION). THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS AVAILABLE; HOWEVER, WHEN THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR THE RECALL REPAIR, THE DEALER STATED THAT THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO PROVIDE THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,000.

I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO AND PAID 4000 DOLLARS FOR IT. THE VEHICLE STOPPED WORKING AND THE FUEL PUMP WASN'T COMING ON. AFTER SEARCHING FOR THE POWER ISSUE I DISCOVERED THE FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT WHICH IS THE TOP TO THE GAS TANK ITSELF. MEANING THE SERVICE HOLE OF THE TANK ACCESS IS THE TOP PART OF THE SENDING UNIT. THE SENDING UNIT HAS 4 FUEL LINE CONNECTIONS AND 4 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS. TWO FUEL CONECTIONS AND 2 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS PLUG INTO THE TOP SIDE OF THE SENDING UNIT AND THEY ROUTE THROUGH THE PLASTIC MOLDED SENDING UNIT AND CONNECTIONS ARE MADE IN THE BOTTOM SIDE. BASICALLY FUEL AND ELECTRICITY ROUTE THROUGH THIS UNIT INTO THE TANK. THE POWER WIRE TO THE FUEL PUMP BURNED AND MELTED THE CONECTION INSIDE THE MOLD AND BURNED THE PLASTIC ALL AROUND THE CONNECTION PLUG WHERE THE POWER GOES TO THE GAS TANK. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THE 00' AND 02' SENDING UNITS WERE RECALLED BUT NOT MY 01'. THIS IS THE EQUIVALENT TO RIDING DOWN THE ROAD WITH A TICKING TIME BOMB UNDER MY CHILDREN'S SEATS. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN BUT I HAVE GOTTEN NOWHERE WITH THEM SO I AM REACHING OUT TO THE TRANSPORTATION SAFTEY AUTHORITIES. *TR

AFTER THE CAR WARMS UP IT WILL STALL WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN COMING TO A STOP TO IDLE.SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT START IMMEDIATELY AFTER STALLING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. WE HAVE ALSO HAD MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THE ALIGNMENT DUE TO THE WHEEL BEARINGS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE MASS TURNPIKE, THE FRONT WHEEL CAME OFF THE CAR. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME. FIRST TIME, IN 2013, IN SCHOOL PARKING LOT, DIFFERENT SIDE BUT ALSO A FRONT WHEEL. WE BOUGHT THE CAR USED FROM A NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN AUGUST 2012 FOR MY 19 YEAR OLD SON. THE CAR IS HARDLY DRIVEN AS HE IS AWAY IN COLLEGE. THIS CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED SEVERAL TIMES FOR VARIOUS OTHER THINGS AND TWO DIFFERENT FRONT WHEELS JUST COMING OFF CAN NOT BE A MATTER OF LOOSE LUG NUTS AND INCOMPETENCE ON THE PART OF THE REPAIR SHOP. I FEEL THAT SOMETHING MUST BE FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG OR FAULTY. I SEE THAT THERE WERE RECALLS YEARS AGO HAVING TO DO WITH BALL JOINTS IN THIS MODEL, I CAN NOT TELL FROM CARFAX REPORTS WHETHER THIS VIN WAS EVER SERVICED FOR THAT, AND THAT NISSAN NEVER SHOULD HAVE RESOLD THIS CAR WITHOUT CHECKING TO SEE - DESPITE THE FACT THAT THIS IS AN OLDER CAR. A WHEEL COMING OFF IS DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. MY SON COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED (LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT). I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT WHETHER THIS CAR WAS EVER CHECKED FOR THE RECALL ON BALL JOINTS IN 2003 OR EVER. DOESN'T THE DEALERSHIP HAVE ANY OBLIGATION TO CHECK SAFETY RECALLS BEFORE RESELLING CARS THAT COULD BE DANGEROUS TO DRIVE? I FEEL THAT WE WERE SOLD A USED CAR THAT WAS FUNDAMENTALLY NOT SAFE. TWO DIFFERENT WHEELS FALL OFF WITHIN 2 YEARS OF PURCHASE - SOMETHING DOESN'T SEEM LEGITIMATE HERE. *TR

MY XTERRA WAS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY ON THURSDAY JUNE 13TH AND AT 2 AM MY ROOMMATES COME KNOCKING ON MY DOOR SAYING MY FRONT END OF MY CAR FELL. I GOT UP AND LOOKED AND SURE ENOUGH IT HAD DROPPED. HAD IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC SHOP AND THEY SAID BOTH TORSION BARS WERE BROKE. I HAD TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER TO GET IT FIXED BECAUSE THEY WOULD NOT TOUCH IT. NO CAN BELIEVE THAT I WAS NOT DRIVING IT WHEN THIS HAPPENED, MY XTERRA HAD BEEN SITTING FOR 7 HOURS WHEN THIS HAPPENED. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE BOTH BROKE AT THE SAME TIME AND WHILE IT WAS SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY. *TR

EXITING ONE FREEWAY (315S) TO ENTER ANOTHER (270W). ON A LIGHT WET GROUND, MY XTERRA SPUN OFF THE ROAD DOING A SPIN (APPROX 360 DEGREES) OFF THE ROAD. THERE WAS A LIGHT RAIN 5-10 MINS PRIOR, I WAS DOING NOR MORE THAN 25MPH ON THE EXIT AND WITHOUT A KNOWN REASON, AND DESPITE TIRES WITH TREAD, THE VEHICLE SPUN OUT OF CONTROL. I PURSCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED AND I ATTEMPT NOT TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE IN THE WINTER BECAUSE OF IT NOT BEING ABLE TO MAINTAIN THE ROAD IN THE SNOW. IN ADDITION, IF I HIT A BUMP, THE REAR WHEELS JERK/SKIPS WHEN IT MAKES CONTACT BACK WITH THE GROUND. *TR

I OPENED CASE # [XXX] WITH NISSAN REGARDING THE FAILURE OF ALL FOUR WINDOW REGULATORS IN THE NISSAN XTERRA I PURCHASED FROM NISSAN OF BOURNE (MA) IN 2000 ON MARTHA'S VINEYARD. THAT IS WHERE THE VEHICLE IS GARAGED AND USED AND ONLY HAS 67K MILES ON IT. THE WINDOWS HAVE BEEN ACTING UP FOR QUITE SOME TIME (MANY YEARS) NOW AND THE VEHICLE IS PRIMARILY USED ONLY IN THE SUMMER. THERE WAS A WINDOW REGULATOR WARRANTY EXTENSION (PU307) ISSUED ON THIS VEHICLE AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS ONLINE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE PROBLEM. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS HAS REJECTED THE CLAIM SINCE IT IS BEYOND THE WARRANTY EXTENSION PERIOD EVEN THOUGH I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM SINCE IT ONLY APPLIED TO "WARM WEATHER" STATES. I'D LIKE TO ESCALATE THIS CLAIM TO ENCOURAGE NISSAN TO PICK UP THE COST OF PARTS AS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD THE WINDOW GET STUCK IN THE UP OR DOWN POSITION. THERE ARE NUMEROUS ONLINE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 NISSAN XTERRA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS AND MAKING A TURN HE HEARD A LOUD NOISE IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED BY A DEALER NOR WAS IT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED HIM THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 160,000.

BOTH OF MY FRONT RIMS CRACKED ON MY 2001 NISSAN XTERRA. TWO OF THE FOUR PASSENGER SIDE SPOKES AND ONE OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE SPOKES IS STARTING TO CRACK. THERE WASN'T ANY IMPACT THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THIS. I ONLY NOTICED BECAUSE MY BRAKES BEGAN SQUEAKING AFTER A TRIP WITH MY 10YR OLD SON. WHEN I LOOKED AT THE FRONT RIMS TO CHECK THE BRAKES, I NOTICED THE CRACKS. THEY ARE ALUMINUM 4 SPOKE 15"X7"RIMS. I FOUND A RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 03V307000. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 NISSAN XTERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY WHEN IT CAUGHT FIRE. HE WAS ABLE TO PUT THE FIRE OUT WITH A WATER HOSE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT STATED THAT IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 80,000.

INSTRUMENT GAUGE FAILURE. SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, ODOMETER, HEAT, AND FUEL GAUGES ALL GO TO ZERO. THIS OCCURS USUALLY ABOUT 30 MINUTES AFTER THE CAR IS RUNNING AND/OR THE TEMPERATURE IS VERY WARM OUTSIDE. SUV CONTINUES TO RUN 'NORMALLY' WHEN THIS OCCURS, BUT THIS CAN BE A SAFETY HAZARD IN NOT KNOWING YOUR VEHICLE SPEED OR FUEL LEVEL WHEN DRIVING. TYPICALLY, THE GAUGES RETURN TO NORMAL AFTER THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN RUNNING AND PARKED IN A 'COOL' SPACE FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS ON THE WEB ABOUT THIS, BUT THERE APPEARS TO BE NO SOLUTION AVAILABLE OR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FROM NISSAN. *TR

WINDOW REGULATORS ALL HAVE BEEN MALFUNCTIONING ON MY 2001 NISSAN XTERRA. *TR

ON MY 2001 NISSAN XTERRA, THE WINDOWS ARE NEARLY INOPERABLE ON FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES. THEY STARTED OUT SLOWLY AND GETTING STUCK HALF THE WAY UP, IT WOULD USUALLY TAKE ABOUT 4 ATTEMPTS TO GET WINDOW ALL THE WAY UP. THIS IS A SERIOUS NISSAN PROBLEM, AND ACCORDING TO OTHER FORUMS, OTHERS ARE HAVING SAME PROBLEM. THE WINDOWS NEED TO HAVE A RECALL ON THEM, IT IS VERY AGGRAVATING TO NOT BE ABLE TO ROLL THE WINDOWS UP OR DOWN, WHAT IF YOUR DOOR GETS HIT BY A CAR, AND DOOR IS INOPERABLE? *TR

FIRST THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW STOPPED WORKING. SOUNDS LIKE BREAKING GLASS WHEN IT IS ROLLED DOWN. WILL ONLY ROLL DOWN 1 -2 INCHES AND WILL NOT ROLL BACK UP. THE LEFT REAR WINDOW WILL ROLL DOWN BUT WILL NOT ROLL BACK UP. THE RIGHT REAR WINDOW WILL OCCASIONALLY ROLL DOWN BUT WILL NOT ROLL BACK UP. THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW WORKS FOR NOW. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 25 MINUTES ON THE TURNPIKE AND PULLED OFF FOR GAS, THE SECOND I TURNED OFF THE CAR SMOKE STARTED TO POUR INSIDE FROM THE FRONT AREA AND ALSO POURING FROM THE UNDER HOOD AREA. THIS TURNED INTO AN ACTUAL FIRE NEXT TO A GAS PUMP. FIRE DEPT. WAS CALLED TO PUT IT OUT . ENGINE TOTALLY BURNED UP AND HOOD ETC... *TR

HEARD A SAND ON GLASS SOUND WHEN ROLLING UP MY 3 OF MY WINDOWS AND NOW DRIVER, PASSENGER AND REAR PASSENGER WINDOWS DO NOT WORK. *TR

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2001 NISSAN XTERRA XE V6 3.3L ENGINE. ALL MAINTENANCE DONE AT MOSSY NISSAN IS SAN DIEGO. I AM NOW HAVING TO REPLACE THE HEAD GASKET AFTER 89000MI. NISSAN DOES NOT OFFER ANY WARRANTY FOR THE FAILURE OF THE ENGINE GASKET. THIS IS PROBLEMATIC AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED. *TR

MY 2001 NISSAN XTERRA SHUTS OFF WHILE IN MOTION. ALSO, WILL NOT START AT TIMES. OVERALL, CAR HAS SHUT OFF OR NOT STARTED PROBABLY ABOUT 10 OR SO TIMES. ACCORDING TO NISSAN THE RECALL ON THIS PART WAS ALREADY FIXED BEFORE I OWNED THE CAR (I BOUGHT IT PREOWNED)....BUT OBVIOUSLY IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN THEREFORE THEY HAVE NOT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM AT ALL. HOWEVER, SINCE THEY REPAIRED IT ONCE THEY HAVE WASHED THEIR HANDS OF IT. *TR

I WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH WHEN A VEHICLE PULLED OUT OF A BUSINESS PARKING LOT, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO YIELD, CAUSING ME TO COLLIDE WITH HER DRIVER DOOR. MY CONCERN IS THAT MY AIRBAG IN MY 2001 NISSAN XTERRA FAILED TO DEPLOY CAUSING ME TO HIT THE STEERING WHEEL WITH MY CHEST. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND THE RESULTS WERE THAT I FAILED TO PROPERLY DECELERATE; THIS WAS THE CAUSE FOR THE FAILURE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 NISSAN XTERRA. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BE REPAIRED UNDER A RECALL. THE REMEDY WAS PERFORMED BY SILICONE SPRAY BEING SPRAYED OVER THE STRAP SENDING UNIT, WHICH RESTS ON THE FUEL PUMP AND INDICATES HOW MUCH FUEL THE VEHICLE IS USING. AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE REPAIRED, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED. THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE A CRASH COULD HAVE OCCURRED. HE FEELS THAT THE REPAIR WAS NOT FIXED PROPERLY, BUT COVERED UP INSTEAD. HE WOULD LIKE THE REPAIR WORK INVESTIGATED. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 92,000.

IT'S BEEN 1 1/2 YEAR THAT I HAVE THE PROBLEM WITH REAR WINDOWS ON MY NISSAN XTERRA. THEY CAN GO DOWN, BUT THEY WANT GO UP. I HAVE TWO KIDS OF 5 AND 16 YEARS OLD AND I AM LITTLE CONCERNED WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I PUT THE WINDOWS DOWN BY MISTAKE.I THINK THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. I DID CONTACT NISSAN AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS IS NOT THEY PROBLEM. I DID LOOK ONLINE AND I FOUND THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE IF I OPEN THOSE WINDOWS BY MISTAKE LETS SAY IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. VERY UNSAFE!!!!! THANK YOU! *TR

MY 2001 NISSAN PATHFINDER WAS PURCHASED 3 YEARS AGO. A BOSE 6-CD PLAYER CAME INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE. THE 6-CD PLAYER STOPPED WORKING, AND DISPLAYS AN ERROR MESSAGE, "ERR 2". MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THIS PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED WITH THE NISSAN DEALER (SERVICE DEPARTMENT) IN BUENA PARK CALIFORNIA ON DECEMBER 21, AT 6:40PM. I WAS INFORMED THAT I COULD PURCHASE A NEW CD PLAYER, HOWEVER THIS WOULD BE QUITE COSTLY. THE NISSAN DEALER FURTHER STATED, WHEN A CUSTOMER WHOSE VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY HAS THIS SAME PROBLEM, THEY DO NOT REPAIR THE PROBLEM. THE CD PLAYER IS REPLACED WITH ANOTHER. NO REPAIR SHOP WILL LOOK AT MY SYSTEM. APPARENTLY, THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON WITH NISSANS. OTHER THAN PURCHASING A NEW CD PLAYER, THERE HAS TO BE SOME TYPE OF CONSUMER REPAIR SHOP. NISSAN SEEMS UNCONCERNED WITH THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. *TR

BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT EXHAUST MANIFOLDS CRACKED, CAUSING EXHAUST FUMES TO ENTER THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. THE CRACKS WERE PRESENT FOR SOME TIME. THESE FAILURES ON THIS VEHICLE ARE VERY COMMON AND IN MY OPINION VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

1) BETWEEN 8/07 & 10/07 THREE WINDOW REGULATORS HAVE BROKEN 2) WINDOW REGULATORS BROKE & WINDOWS UNABLE TO MOVE UP OR DOWN 3) CAR WAS TAKEN TO AUTO BODY SHOP FOR REPAIR, REPAIRS WERE COMPLETED & MONEY PAID TO AUTO BODY SHOPS. *TR

(1) MY DRIVER WINDOW BEGAN TO GRIND WHEN I USED IT. SHORTLY AFTER IT WOULD NOT WORK AT ALL. (2) CURRENTLY, 3 OF 4 OF MY WINDOW REGULATORS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY. I STARTED TO LOOK ON THE NET TO SEE IF OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND THAT IS HOW I FOUND THIS WEB SITE. NISSAN NEVER SENT ME ANYTHING ON THIS ISSUE EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD A VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN (PU306 & PU307). THEY DON'T CONSIDER IT A DANGER, BUT I THINK THAT IN THE MIDDLE OF A MICHIGAN WINTER WHEN MY WINDOWS WON'T GO UP AND YOU HAVE A BABY IN THE BACK SEAT DANGEROUS. AFTER MULTIPLE PHONE CALLS TO NISSAN THEY WANT ME TO TAKE IT INTO TO THE DEALER AND PAY $100 FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I DON'T HAVE $100 TO GAMBLE WITH KNOWING THAT IT MAY LEAD TO NOT REIMBURSEMENT. I AM THE ONLY OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE AND NISSAN HAS ALWAYS HAD MY CONTACT INFO, YET THEY NEVER SENT ME ANY NOTICE OF THIS EXPIRED CAMPAIGN. *TR

IN 2003 THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2000 XTERRA'S - NHTSA ID 03V307000. THIS RECALL HAD TO DO WITH WHEELS CRACKING. I HAVE A 2001 XTERRA OUTSIDE THE VIN RANGE OF THE RECALL AND HAVE HAD 2 WHEELS CRACK IN THE LAST 16 MONTHS. NO ONE AT NISSAN OR THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT EXCEPT TO SELL ME NEW WHEELS. *JB

2001 NISSAN XTERRA ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAD A MAJOR ELECTRICAL FIRE DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT**CW** *JB

MAJOR ELECTRICAL FIRE WHICH DESTROYED THE ENGINE ROOM HARNESS , SHORTED THE POWER TRANSIISTOR IN THE DISTRIBUTOR, DESSTROYED THE HOOD RELEASE CABLE AND BURNED THE WINDSHIELD WASHER TUBING, AND ALSO MULTIPLE FUSES AND RELAYS.THIS CONDITION OCCURED DUE TO THE MANUFACTURER CRUSHING THE WIRING FOR THE LEFT FRONT COMBINATION LIGHT UNDER THE AIR FILTER HOUSING AGAINST THE METAL BODY DURING INSTALLATION AT THE FACTORY.ALL PARTS RETAINED AND VEHICLE AVAILABLE FOR INSOECTION VEHIICLE CURRENTLY NOT RUNNING.
