| 2006 | POWER TRAIN | TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN FRONTIER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION COOLING SYSTEM FAILED AND ALLOWED RADIATOR FLUID TO LEAK INTO THE TRANSMISSION CAUSING IT TO FAIL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AT OWNER'S EXPENSIVE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 111,500. UPDATED 5/15/13 *CN UPDATED 05/31/2013 *JS |
| 2003 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS | THE HIGH MOUNTED BRAKE LIGHT ON MY 2003 NISSAN FRONTIER HAS SEALS THAT ARE COMPROMISED. THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY TAKES ON WATER CAUSING THE BRAKE LIGHT TO FAIL. NISSAN REPLACED THE LIGHT ONCE DURING THE INITIAL 36 MONTHS OF THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY AND REFUSES TO REPLACE THE UNIT AGAIN. SINCE THE BRAKE LIGHT IS A SAFETY COMPONENT, I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR INVESTIGATION OF THIS COMPLAINT. IT IS MY POSITION THAT NISSAN IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ENGINEERING AND MANUFACTURING A SAFETY COMPONENT THAT WORKS PROPERLY. *JB |
