2011 Nissan Frontier

AUTOMOBILE HAS BODY RUST AND RUST LIKE STAINING. NISSAN ATTEMPTED TO REPAIR BY PUTTING SANDING PUDDING AND PAINTING IT. CAR STILL HAS CONSTANT RUST PROBLEMS. NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICE IS UNABLE TO COME UP WITH SOLUTION AT THIS TIME. THE REAR BUMPER IN PARTICULAR HAS THAT ISSUE NISSAN CUT HOLES IN IT TO DRAIN WATER OUT AFTER IT RAINS TO PREVENT FURTHER RUSTING. ONGOING ISSUE WITH NO SOLUTION. THIS IS A 2011 MODEL PURCHASED NEW. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 NISSAN FRONTIER. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH WHEN THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR OPENED INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT MANUALLY HELD THE DOOR IN ORDER FOR IT TO REMAIN CLOSED WHILE DRIVING, DUE TO THE FAULTY LATCH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND THE CONTACT WAS AWAITING A REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,530.

GOING DOWN BACK ROAD, HIT A DEPRESSION, THE TRUCK NATURALLY ROCKED A BIT FROM SIDE TO SIDE, SIDE AIRBAGS (PASSENGER AND DRIVER) SUDDENLY DEPLOYED W/A HORRENDOUS LOUD BANG, SCARING ME HALF TO DEATH A LONG W/MY LEFT EAR RINGING. RIDICULOUS THAT IT IS THAT SENSITIVE IN A 4X4 TRUCK THAT THEY ADVERTISE NAVIGATING ROUGH CONDITIONS. I TRULY HOPE THIS DOES NOT END UP COSTING ME AND THAT NISSAN STEPS UP TO THE PLATE AND MAKES THIS RIGHT. 2 OTHER VERY SIMILAR REPORTS ON THIS SITE. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING APX 60 MPH THE TRUCK LOST POWER, SOME WARNING LIGHTS ON DASH ILLUMINATED, I WAS FORCED TO PULL OVER. ENGINE WAS CHUGGING, COULD NOT KEEP IT RUNNING. I SHUT IT OFF AND ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE FURTHER, I COULD NOT. IT WAS TOWED TO DEALER AND CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR REPLACED. I GIVE THANKS IT DIDN'T HAPPEN ON THE LOGGING ROAD WHERE THERE IS NO CELL SIGNAL AND FEW OTHER CARS. *TR

MYSELF AND THREE KIDS AND DOG HAD BEEN ON A MILD 4 WHEEL DRIVE ROAD HAVING A LITTLE COOK OUT AND HIKE. WE WERE COMING HOME ON A SMOOTH MAINTAINED COUNTY ROAD GOING AND COMING TO STOP BY A STREAM. I THINK MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE, WE WERE MAYBE GOING 20 MILES AN HOUR WHEN MY SIDE AIRBAGS EXPLODED. SEAT AIR BAGS AND FRONT AIRBAGS FORTUNATELY DID NOT EXPLODE. I RECEIVED MILD BURNS AND BRUISES ON MY FACE. MY 6 Y.O. RED, HURT ON HIS CHEST. 11 Y.O. LOST HIS HEARING TEMPORARILY AND RED STINGING EAR. OTHER CHILD, 8, UNINJURED AS SHE WAS BENDING OVER PUTTING ON HER SHOES AS WE WERE COMING TO A STOP, BUT IS AFRAID TO SIT UP STRAIGHT IN A CAR NOW. WANTS TO LAY DOWN ON THE SEAT ALL THE TIME. WE HAD TO CUT OURSELVES OUT OF THE VEHICLE WITH OUR JACK KNIVES. WE HAD NO CELL PHONE SERVICE AND HAD TO DRIVE HOME 45 MINUTES WITH NO SEAT BELTS AND THEY LOCKED UP. I CAN NOT EVEN START TO DESCRIBE HOW SCARY IT WAS. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT IT. 2011 NISSAN FRONTIER WITH A 6 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THEY ARE TRYING TO GET OUT OF FIXING IT. NO ONE UNDERSTANDS HOW THIS CAN BE. NISSAN IS NOW LOOKING IN TO THE 'LITTLE BROWN BOX'. WE ARE LOOKING FOR HELP. *KB
