2007 Nissan Xterra

OWN 2007 NISSAN XTERRA MAINTAIN CARE WITH ALL PROPER SERVICES SINCE PURCHASED NEW. SUDDENLY DRIVING AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON PARK CAR AND WAIT FOR MORNING TO TAKE TO DEALERSHIP,TRY TO START NEXT MORNING WONT START. HAVE CAR TOWED TO CERRITOS NISSAN AND HAVE THEM INSPECT IT,THEY CALL ME BACK A FEW HOURS LATER TELLING ME THAT MY RADIATOR HOSE HAVE LEAKED COOLANT INTO MY TRANSMISSION AND DESTROYED MY TRANNY. I ASKED WHY THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED AND THEY EXPLAINED THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT FROM NISSAN AND EXPLAINED TO ME SINCE I WAS OVER 100K MILES THAT IT IS NOT COVERED. PRICE FOR NEW TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR 5000 DOLLARS. RIDICULOUS FOR ME TO PAY FOR A DEFECT FROM NISSAN THAT IS GOING TO EVENTUALLY HAPPEN TO ANY OWNER OF XTERRA,PATHFINDER AND FRONTIER OWNERS FROM 05 TO 11. I DO NOT THINK US AS LOYAL NISSAN OWNERS SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A DEFECT FROM NISSAN THAT IS BOUND TO HAPPEN NISSAN SHOULD HAVE ATOTAL RECALL ON ALL THOSE MODELS AFFECTED BY THE SHOTTY RADIATOR THAT THEY MANUFACTURED. I HAVE PURCHASED 4 NISSANS THROUGH THE PAST 12 YRS AND I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER NISSAN AFTER THIS INCIDENT. I HAD TO PAY 5000 TO FIX A DEFECT FROM NISSAN. *TR

MY 2007 NISSAN X-TERRA BEGAN SUFFERING CROSS CONTAMINATION OF TRANSMISSION FLUID AND RADIATOR FLUID AROUND 88,000 MILES. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE RADIATOR REPLACED, THE RADIATOR LINES FLUSHED TWICE AND I AM STILL HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE RADIATOR TRYING TO OVERHEAT DUE TO THE CROSS CONTAMINATION. IN ADDITION TO THE RADIATOR I HAVE HAD TRANSMISSION ISSUES AS A RESULT OF ELECTRONIC MODULE FAILURES IN THE TRANSMISSION. I CONTACTED NISSAN ABOUT THIS MATTER AND THEY NOTIFIED ME THE WARRANTY HAD BEEN EXTENDED BUT I WAS STILL OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY EXTENSION AND THAT IT WOULD COST ME CLOSE TO $5,000 OUT OF MY POCKET TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR. I HAVE ALREADY SPENT ALMOST HALF THAT TRYING TO FIX THIS VEHICLE AND CONTINUE TO HAVE ISSUES. NISSAN HAS A PRODUCT DEFECT AND SHOULD HAVE TO STAND BEHIND THIS ISSUE. *TR

IN JANUARY OF 2013, MY CAR WAS TOWED TO THE KRAFT NISSAN IN TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA AND THERE I LEARN THAT MY COMPUTER/BRAIN THAT MAKES MY CAR FUNCTION NEEDED TO BE REPLACE. HOWEVER, I WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR COULD BE AT THE DEALERSHIP APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS OR LONGER BECAUSE THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER. THE PART COULD NOT BE FOUND ANYWHERE IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA OR IN THE UNITED STATES. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT THAT THE PART NEEDED TO BE REPRODUCE. I INQUIRED IF THIS PART WAS A DEFLECT ISSUE OR A NATIONAL CAMPAIGN FOR DEFLECTED CAR PARTS, AND WAS TOLD NO. I PAID APPROXIMATELY 1800 DOLLARS FOR THE REPAIR BILL. WHILE MY CAR WAS IN THE SHOP, I RECEIVED A LETTER THAT EXPLAINED THE COOLANT FLUID IN THE RADIATOR CAN BECOME CONTAMINATED WITH THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AND CAUSE THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE. I WAS HAVING A ISSUE WITH MY TRANSMISSION; HOWEVER, AFTER THE CAR WAS REPAIRED I REQUESTED THAT SOMEONE FROM THE SERVICE DEPT TEST DRIVE THE CAR AND INDEED THEY DRIVE IT AND STATED THEY HEARD NOTHING. LATER, I REQUESTED IT BE DRIVEN BY A MECHANIC; THEREFORE WE WENT FOR A DRIVE AND INDEED I WAS TOLD IT WAS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM, BUT IT WILL COST ME 7500 DOLLARS FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT HONORING ANY LETTER I RECEIVED ACCORDING TO THE OWNERS OF KRAFT AFTER SHOWING THE LETTER AS PROOF. AS OF TODAY, I WAS TOLD THE COMPUTER /BRAIN WAS A DEFECTED PART AND NISSAN SHOULD HAVE REPLACED THE DEFLECTED PART ALONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION; TODAY MY CAR IS AT NISSAN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND STILL TO THIS DATE I AM BEING TOLD THAT THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF ANY NATIONAL CAMPAIGN FOR THE TRANSMISSION ISSUES I AM HAVING EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE CONFIRMED TODAY THAT THE FLUIDS ARE CONTAMINATED. SERVICE REP QUOTE ME A EXTENDED WARRANT I CAN PURCHASE FOR 3000 DOLLARS SINCE MY CAR NOW HAVE 103000 MILES PRIOR TO IT HAD APPROX 95000. I NEED HELP WITH THIS ISSUE. *TR

WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING DOWN HILL MIND I ASS WHEN MY 2007 NISSAN XTERRA BEGAN TO DOWN SHIFT MY ITS SELF. I CAN JUST IMAGINE IF I WOULD HAVE TOTAL TRANNY FAILURE AND CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. AFTER DOING SOME SEARCH AND ASKING AROUND I WAS TOLD THAT IT MAY BE MY TRANSMISSION. I THEN TOOK IT TO A LOCAL TRANSMISSION SHOP WHERE THEY TOLD ME THAT MY RADIATOR WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AND THERE WAS COOLANT LEAKING INTO MY TRANSMISSION THAT IS CREATING WATER DAMAGE. IT'S NOT THE CONSUMER'S PROBLEM THAT THEY INSTALLED FAULTY COMPONENTS IN THEIR CARS AND TRUCKS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS ITEM. NOW I'M FORCED TO PAY FOR A RADIATOR AND FOR THE TRANNY TO BE REBUILD PLUS RENTAL CAR PRICE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 NISSAN XTERRA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 68 MPH THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT RADIATOR FLUID HAD LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND BOTH THE TRANSMISSION AND THE RADIATOR WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED BUT STATED THAT DUE TO THE MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE, THEY WOULD NOT ASSIST IN THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 113,000. ..UPDATED 04/18/13 *BF

WHILE ACCELERATING, MERGING ONTO A MAJOR HIGHWAY, AND WITHOUT WARNING THE VEHICLE LOST POWER LUNGED FORWARD AND STARTED MAKING A LOUD GRINDING NOISE. I WAS NEARLY HIT FROM BEHIND BY A VEHICLE HAVING THE RIGHT-OF-WAY BEFORE I COULD GET TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AND WAS DIAGNOSED BY A MECHANIC AS HAVING "CROSS CONTAMINATION OF TRANSMISSION FLUID AND ANTIFREEZE DUE TO TRANSMISSION INTERCOOLER FAILURE". THIS INCIDENT HAS BEEN REPORTED TO AND DISMISSED BY NISSAN AS NOT BEING A FREQUENT PROBLEM FOR THEM. *TR

DRIVING MY VEHICLE, THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO DRAG, I THEN CALLED THE DEALER AND BROUGHT IT RIGHT IN AND FOUND THAT THE RADIATOR WAS LEAKING INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND IT WAS GOING TO COST 6,600 DOLLARS TO REPAIR. I COMPLAINED THAT IT WAS TOO MUCH MONEY. THE DEALER BROUGHT IT DOWN TO 2,500 DOLLARS TO FIX. THEN I FIND OUT IF IT HAD HAPPENED BEFORE 80,000 MILES IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED. THIS IS NOT RIGHT AS NISSAN KNEW THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES BECAUSE OF A POOR DESIGN ON THERE PART. AS A CONSUMER I FEEL I WAS TAKEN. WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF MY VEHICLE STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF A HIGHWAY OR A DESERTED ROAD. PLEASE HAVE NISSAN OWN UP TO THE PRODUCT THEY ARE SELLING. *TR

MY 2007 NISSAN XTERRA BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE A RUMBLE STRIP LIKE AFFECT APPARENTLY DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE RADIATOR HAVING A LEAK INTO THE TRANSMISSION AND CAUSING A TRANSMISSION TO BEGIN TO FAIL. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE A RECALL ON NISSANS PART I WAS FORCED TO PAY 3000 DOLLARS FOR A CO-PAY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT. *TR
