| Description of the problem | My 2005 nissan pathfinder se has a loud squeak/vibration coming from the underbody, the same as described in complaint number 10143438. I too, have confirmed that the source of the loud squeak/vibration is from the fuel tank/fuel pump design. Recently, i have been informed (as of two weeks ago) that the tech people of nissan of north america in california have yet to find a solution to the problem. Although my vehicle is completely under warranty, i have also found dealing with the nissan customer service center to be difficult as, unlike local mechanics, the nissan customer service center does not appear to want to even acknowledge the existence of the problem let alone put anything in writing about customer service issues to its consumers. Often times, (such as right now) the nissan customer service center won't call me back even though they promised me that they would do so. This vehicle is an expensive vehicle and i agree with the previous complaint that it is absolutely unacceptable that nissan does not have a fix for this problem and/or won't communicate with its life-long consumers about what the problem actually is, what they are doing about the problem or when they expect to have a fix for the problem. *jb |
