| 2005 | POWER TRAIN | WHILE DRIVING ON THE 73N FREEWAY IN ORANGE COUNTY, MY CAR STARTED SHUDDERING. THE TEMP GAUGE WAS TA THE MAX SO I PULLED OVER. I WAS TOWED IN TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE THE MASTER MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY THE TRANSMISSION COOLER IN THE RADIATOR FAILING CAUSING RADIATOR FLUID AND TRANSMISSION FLUID TO MIX RENDERING BOTH INOPERABLE. HE ALSO TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A GROWING PROBLEM WITH NISSAN AND HE HAS PERSONALLY SEEN MANY SUCH CASES. HE SAID THAT NISSAN IS USING DEFECTIVE RADIATORS WHICH IS THE MAIN CAUSE OF THIS. *TR |
| 2002 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM | THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE IS CRACKED ALLOWING EXHAUST FUMES INTO THE PASSENGER AREA. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM AMONG NISSAN XTERRA OWNERS. *TR |
