problem #4

Frontier 4.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 91,766 miles

Nissan will not correct their mistake and this is my first and last Nissan. I will tell as many people as I can about my experience with Nissan and advise to stay away...

problem #3

Frontier SE V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 90,800 miles

Dealer estimate $709 for the part (with core additional $150 without), $550 for labor. Check engine light won't go out. They say the warranty ended at 80,000 miles. However it seems the problem is really common around 90,000+ miles. Go figure!
