Xterra 4WD 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 33,995 miles
Fuse #11 which protects the alternator/charging circut and 4WD/atp warning light circuts kept blowing. When this fuse blows the alternator stops working and the vehicle then runs off the battery. And when the battery dies 30 minutes later so does your Xterra!

Nissan Xterra's window regulators are faulty. I had two of mine replaced in 2 years and the third one just broke. Nissan admits that this is a common complaint but is not recalling the equipment. I am out of warranty and I will have to pay for it if I get it fixed. Every Nissan Xterra user has had this problem and atleast 2 window regulators have been replaced on each 2001 models. Its time Nissan recalled the equipment.
