problem #2

Xterra 4WD 6-cyl

  • 65,350 miles
Coolant is leaking at the head gasket on my single owner 2000 Nissan Xterra xe V6 4WD. I had this checked by 3 different certified technicians and they all pointed out the same issue. The car has only 65K miles on it. The cost of repairing this is more than $1200. Seems like lot of Nissan has similar issue, yet no recalls on this problem. I have owned cars that had more than $100K miles and never had to replace the head gasket. Currently, a temporary seal is put in place, yet, I see few drops of coolant on the garage floor.
