Dt*: the contact stated while driving 20 mph down a sloped driveway, the vehicle stalled. as a result, the brakes and power steering system failed. the dashboard lights illuminated while the vehicle was descending. the contact attempted to put the vehicle in park, but there was a grinding noise. the vehicle was shifted back to drive. the parking brake was engaged but there was no tension. the vehicle rolled to a stop. the dealership inspected the vehicle, but was unable to determine a problem.

Tl*the contact owns a 2006 nissan xterra. the contact stated that he has taken his vehicle to the dealer four times or more regarding the air conditioner not working. when the a/c was activated in april of 2006, hot air blew out. he took the vehicle to the dealer who stated that the a/c system was never charged. the dealer charged the system and stated that it should work. on may 9, 2006, at 2,128 miles, the contact returned to the dealer because the ipdm controller was not allowing the a/c to remain on cycle and cool the vehicle. on june 19, 2006, the a/c was not producing enough cold air and the vehicle was taken to the dealer once again. the dealer stated that there was minor engine failure. two seals were replaced for the high and low side from the previous visit because they were not placed back on during the previous visit. on july 17, 2007, at 10,753 miles, the compressor was short cycling and shutting on and off too quickly. the dealer discovered that the system was a half pint low on refrigerant and they replaced the o-ring. the contact believes there is a leak, but the dealer stated that there was not. the current mileage is 10,760 and failure mileage was 1,577. the consumer provided repair invoices pertaining to the defect and also legal documentation in reference to the incident. updated 09/05/07 *tr

In dec 2012 i had to take my 2006 nissan xterra to the garage, there i was told that my radiator had cracked in 3 places and that i had coolant in my transmission. i had to replace the radiator and have the transmission flushed several time. then on april 10 i was driving home. while getting on the interstate my check engine light came on and my vehicle did not want to go (like it wasn't getting any gas). took the xterra back to the garage and was told that i needed to rebuild or replace my transmission. i feel that so many people have had problems with this that nissan needs to do recalls and reimburse everyone that has already had this problem. if they were any kind of "good" company that is exactly what they would do! very disappointed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *tr
