 Description of the problemMy truck was diagnosed with a timing chain issue due to a whining from the engine. If timing chain fails the engine will lose power putting people at risk. Nissan has known about the issue since tsb # 07-042 issued july 17 2007. I purchased in oct 2007 had i had this information available to me i would have made a different decision. In april 17 2009 another tsb was issued #07-042a, on december 14 2009 another tsb #07-042c. Sometime between 2006-2007 the primary timing chain tensioner was redesigned. So nissan was well aware there was an issue. The service department never mentioned this issue until i was out of warranty leaving me on the hook for repairs. The timing chain should last the life of the motor . Please open an investigation on this matter. Nissan did not do anything for their customers about the radiator transmission cross contamination until a class action suit was brought against them and they lost. There is a class action suit in process in california for the timing chain issue. Any one who has whining buzzing in the engine in their nissan from 2004-2007 with the v-6 q40 should file a complaint as well.
