| Description of the problem | We had to replace the ipdm in november 2010, the truck stopped running in middle of the road, we had 118,000 miles on vehicle. In july 2011, we were on vacation in indiana and on our way to see family in ohio. We were on the interstate and the vehicle would not excellerate over 40 - 45 mph., we stopped at an autozone to test the vehicle to see what the problem was and it cleared it. Since that time, the engine light would periodically come on. On september 15, 2011, the truck would not start. The truck is still at the mechanic to be repaired, we were advised the problem is the radiator leaking into the transmission causing transmission to fail. Cost is $6,000 to repair and truck has 127,000 miles on it. This is a consistant complaint of owners of this vehicle, however, nissan does not want to do anything to correct the problem. This is my first and last nissan. |
