Frontier

  • miles
Just bought a 2018 Nissan Frontier was driving home from work put windows down in the back and I'm hearing a sound coming from tires like unbalanced. Got home and look to see if there was tire weights on the rim because its like its unbalanced with a loud sound and I noticed also that a swaying a little. And I remember the this website was getting recalls on tires. So I wanted to see if mine was on the list which is P265\60\R18 109T. This is on regular city roads. Emailed my sales man that sold me the truck and told him I was having a problem like a shimmy in rear tire. So we will see maybe this weekend if they get back to me today is 2/25/2020

Frontier

  • 10,000 miles
This truck is a 2018 Nissan Frontier that has ~10K miles and is driven daily. In the evenings it is kept outside. Recently, a horrible odor began coming from the ventilation system. I immediately started dismantling the passenger dash, removed the cabin air filters, and discovered a dead mother rat and 4 offspring in the compartment above the filters. If I had not been able to find the problem, the truck would have been completely unusable. How were they able to gain entry? I am guessing through some fresh air intake that is obviously open to the exterior. Nissan needs to add a very simple wire mesh cover to the offending entrance. To allow access to a fully grown rat, it is assuredly 2-3" in diameter! thankfully, I was able to catch the problem. However, it is summer, high temperatures, and had the truck been left unattended for several days, the resulting odor may have never been remediated. My concern is, if I can't find and cover the opening, this could happen again.
