| Description of the problem | I was driving my truck on the expressway. The past few days there has been a vibration, a clunking noise and very slow acceleration. Until recently, there have been no signs of engine problems. Today on the expressway the truck started vibrating badly and lost acceleration. I was able to coast over to the side of the road but i almost caused a serious accident. I had an appointment schedule with nissan on friday due to the recent symptoms; however, after this morning i took the truck to the dealership. I spoke with someone at the shop who indicated tan extended warranty was issued for radiator and transmission problems. I never received a letter from nissan and i certainly would have brought the truck in for repair. I almost caused a very serious accident. |
