| Description of the problem | At times, i lose all of my gauges and sometimes when that happens, i also lose all power. This creates a dangerous situation when traveling down a major highway. The other day i was on u. S. 25 south of greenville, sc, when it happened and i drove between 45 and 50 miles with no gauges. I had a doctors appointment in augusta, ga that i had waited several months to get so i had to go on. I have been told by a person that works at the nissan dealership that this is common with the 2001 nissan frontier which is what i have. In checking, i am told that there is no recall for this which doesn't make sense. *jb |
