Set belts at time are hard to get off and airbag light blinks on and off.
Takata recall - received mail telling us about the recall on air bags. will be taking into have fixed or replaced
I bought new tires, same size and brand name as the last 4 tires but a different model type of tires. as i was driving the vehicle on a 2 lane road, the front passenger tire flew off the rim. the rim scraped the roadway and flipped my truck upwards and spun the vehicle up in the air over a guard rail and i hit into a concrete culvert. the vehicle was declared a total loss. the tires were installed by a shop, balanced and aligned. the vehicle was brought back a few days later to that same shop due to the vehicle shaking vigorously at roughly 40 mph. the shop rebalanced the 4 tires and rotated them. the mechanic advised me that the back driver tire had lost psi and was close to 30 psi, the cold psi on the tire says 50 psi. the mechanic advised me that a rotation was completed and that tire was now in the front passenger location and was inflated back to 50 psi. the shop mechanic also advised me that he believed the tire that was then in the front passenger location may be faulty in regards to the wire inside the rubber of the tire and asked where i purchased the tires. as i entered the highway with speed limit of 70, i could merely approach 60 mph with vigorous shaking. i advised the shop of this, but decided to go with another shop to check the balancing and preform a new balancing. the new shop advised me that the rims were not cleaned properly for the initial shop's weights to stay on and said the vehicle may had been throwing their weights off. upon completion of the 3rd balancing, the shop had also installed a back up camera for me but did not hook the front air bags back up. these did not deploy during the accident. after the last balancing, the vehicle still shook at higher speeds but was much less than the other times. my vehicle never had any of these issues with the tires i previously purchased which lasted approximately 55,000 miles and never shook before.
Sun visor pivot side bracket is very flimsy. caused visor to break loose and fall into steering wheel causing momentary loss of control. no crash resulted but could have caused one.
The 2012 nissan frontier has a rubber grommet on the clutch pedal which triggers saftey switch. the grommet goes bad and the vehicle will not start. cannot be jumped. must be towd or fixed on the spot. these grommetts go bad in 15,000 miles and it cost 15.00 for a new one. you cannot maintain a piece of rubber on te clutch. rediculous
I first noticed the incident today in a downtown area, speed of 35 mph. upon removing my foot from the accelerator the rpm dropped to 1000, not lower, and the vehicle continued to move at the 35 mph. at every opportunity i was able to duplicate the event. as i entered our street i braked reducing speed. the vehicle rpm remained at 1000 and the speed was lower,but requiring braking to slow completly. i inspected the accelator pedal area, with my wife to verify that nothing was blocking the accelator. my wife and i took the vehicle on another test drive and was able to duplicate the event, crusing at 35 mph with no foot on the accelerator, rpm at 1000. the outside temp. was approx. 102/104f. weather clear and dry. the vehicle was used over the weekend for a round trip of approx. 700 miles. the vehicle is serviced on a regular basis, mileage upon parking was 18,135. i think this is potentially a serious safe issue. *tr
Somewhere between sept., 2014, and may 2015. my air conditioner stopped working. warranty expired in january, 2015. problem is a faulty a/c clutch. unfortunately, clutch and compressor are one unit. nissan of north america said nissan dealer had to diagnose problem for them to make a decision, since i was out of warranty. i did so, and nissan north america said they could not help, since vehicle was out of warranty. nissan is not the nissan of years ago. poor quality, poor customer service. do not get stuck like me. do your homework before buying.
