THE CAR STOPPED RUNNING AT A STOP LIGHT. THE FAILURE IS A KNOWN RECALL BY NISSAN IN MODEL OF 2005 XTERRA - IT IS THE RECALL FROM 2010 FOR THE ECM (ENGINE CONTROL MODULE). THE PROBLEM STARTED AFTER A WEEKEND ON NON-USE WHEN MY BATTERY WAS DEAD ON MONDAY 11-3-2014. THEN AFTER KEEPING THE CAR RUNNING WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF A BATTERY BOX AND TRAVELING SHORT WAY TO WORK I HAD THE BATTERY EVALUATED AT AUTOZONE AND REPLACED ON MONDAY NIGHT, 11-10-2014. THE CAR THE NEXT MORNING DIED TWICE AFTER QUICK TEMP CHANGE IN DRIVEWAY BUT THEN RAN TO GET WIFE AND 5 MONTH CHILD TO WORK. ON WAY HOME WHILE ON FEEDER ROAD ON MOPAC SOUTH AT DUVAL DIED AT STOP LIGHT UNABLE TO RESTART. CALLED AAA AND TOW WAS IN ROUTE WHEN CAR RESTARTED 20 MIN AFTER FAILURE ALLOW WIFE TO PULL INTO APARTMENT COMPLEX LOT. HAD CAR TOWED THEN RESEARCHED FAILURE WITH LONG CRANKING AND ROUGH IDLE AND THEN TOWED TO TOWN NORTH NISSAN ON 10-12-2014 AGAIN BY AAA. THE CARE WAS UNABLE TO START AND RUN PROPERLY AFTER GETTING INTO THE SAFETY OF THE APARTMENT PARKING LOT. TOWN NORTH NISSAN CONFIRMED RECALLED PART WHICH HAD NOT BEEN DONE ON VEHICLE. WIFE PURCHASED VEHICLE CLOSE TO 2010 RECALL CAMPAIGN BUT DID NOT RECEIVE NOTICE. THE ECM MODULE APPEARS TO REMAIN AND ISSUE AND OUTSTANDING CAMPAIGN OF CONCERN. IF THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ON FEEDER ROAD CAR COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN IN MAJOR ACCIDENT WITH MY WIFE AND 5 MONTH OLD CHILD. PLEASE INVESTIGATE IF RECALL NOTICE NEEDS TO BE REMAILED OR IF THE REPLACEMENT ECM IS PRONE TO SIMILAR FAILURE. IN THIS CASE LUCKILY IT WAS THE ECM THAT WAS SUBJECT TO RECALL THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. *TR

ON DEC 29, 2008, A RECALL (NHTSA 08V690000) FOR 2005 XTERRA VEHICLES. MARYLAND (MD) AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA (DC) WERE INCLUDED ON THE LIST, BUT NORTHERN VIRGINIA WAS NOT LISTED. THE REASON THE AIR BAGS COULD MALFUNCTION WAS DUE TO AREAS WITH A HEAVY CONCENTRATIONS OF ROAD SALT IN THE WINTER. NORTHERN VIRGINIA IS SURROUNDED BY DC & MD, THE SNOW COVERED ALL THE SURROUNDING AREAS. THE SALT IS HEAVY ON THE ROADS IN VA, DC, & MD. REQUEST VIRGINIA BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, TO EXCLUDE NORTHERN VIRGINIA WAS NONSENSICAL. *TR

I HAVE LEARNED THAT THE RADIATOR CRACKING AND LEAKING INTO THE TRANSMISSION IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE 2005 NISSAN XTERRA, AND THAT NISSAN SETTLED A LAWSUIT IN OCTOBER OF 2012. I DO NOT REMEMBER GETTING ANY INFORMATION THAT THIS MIGHT BE A PROBLEM AND I HAVE TO PAY $3000 TO GET THE TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR REPLACED! AFTER 100,000 MILES I AM STUCK TO PAY THE COMPLETE COST OF THE REPAIRS. IS THERE ANY KIND OF RECOURSE FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT I AM UNAWARE OF? *TR

I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A KNOWN CONDITION REQUIRING REPLACEMENT OF THE RADIATOR AND REBUILDING OF THE TRANSMISSION. I WAS TOLD THAT SINCE THERE WAS 101000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE, THAT THE ENTIRE $3800 FOR REPAIR WOULD HAVE TO BE BORNE BY ME . I TRIED DRIIVING THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES AFTERWARDS WITH THE SAME RESULT. IT HAS BEEN PARKED IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE FOR 6 MONTHS NOW AS I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO REPAIR. *TR

AFTER THOSE ATTEMPTS I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A NEARBY DEALERSHIP WHO TOLD ME THAT COOLANT FROM THE RADIATOR LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND MIXED FLUID, DAMAGING BOTH THE TRANSMISSION AND ECM. CAR WILL NOT START AND THE IS NO COMMUNICATIONS WORKING. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED I GET A NEW RADIATOR, IPDM MODULE, AND TRANSMISSION WHICH WAS ESTIMATED AT A COST OF $5,500 AFTER PARTS AND LABOR. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP FOR A SECOND OPINION AND WAS TOLD THE SAME THING AS THE DEALER HAD SAID. *TR

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.

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.

On February 29, 2012 the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) received a letter petitioning the agency to conduct a defect investigation into MY 2005-2010 Nissan Pathfinder, Frontier, and Xterra vehicles [the subject vehicles] for automatic transmission failures related to failed transmission coolers.NHTSA conducted a comprehensive review of data related to this subject. Our report, documenting this review, is available in the document file for this defect petition.It will also be published in the Federal Register. Of the 2,505 referenced complaints, 638 relate to a potential hazard (unable to maintain speed, no motive power, engine stall) and 1,867 concern customer satisfaction issues including, but not limited to, repair cost, vehicle shudder and shake, and engine overheating.Taking into account the allocation of agency resources and priorities and the likelihood that additional investigation would result in a finding that an unreasonable risk to highway safety exists, we conclude that further investigation is not warranted and deny the petition.ODI Complaint ID numbers are referenced on the next page.
