 Description of the problemPurchased vehicle new with 6spd manual transmission. At roughly 4k miles an intermittent noise was noticed and perceived to be coming from the dash cluster. At 7. 8k miles truck was serviced as noise became more prevalent. Dealer made repairs to dash cluster by inspecting and sound proofing area. At 9k miles noise had returned and was sent to a different dealer. They too troubleshoot and insulated the cluster. Noise continued off and on until a return to the dealer for repairs at 14. 5k miles. Dealer at this time couldn't replicate issue. After owner of truck performed their own extensive online research the determined the noise to be coming from the clutch and transferring to the pedal on the drivers side. Driver returned to dealer with new description of problem and suggesting of throw out bearing inspection. Upon inspection dealership said that there was abnormal amount of clutch material on top of throwout bearing and was from the driver's driving habit. They want $1000 just to drop transmission and inspect clutch then more $ to replace clutch. From researching online, this is a common problem for nissan 6spd transmission on the 05+ frontiers and xterras. Nissan won't warrant the item because it is considered a "wear" item. Many consumer have noticed the noise from the day they purchased vehicle and others have had complete clutch failure at less than 15k, sometimes as little as 5k miles. How, other than factory defect, could this happen? Noise was noticed at 4k miles originally. Owner is concerned for safety where if the transmission/clutch fails under certain circumstances the vehicle will be rendered useless putting the driving into harms way. I. E. Train tracks, oncoming traffic, emergency vehicles. The problem could leave the driver defenseless and unable to maneuver out of deadly situation.
