Description of the problem	A high pitched humming/whining noise from under the hood on a 2007 nissan pathfinder. Took to dealership and after performing a diagnostic check, they stated that it was the timing chain and it would be $935. 00 to repair. I asked that since the car was only two years old with maintenance records shouldn't it be under warranty. They stated that since i had 65,000 miles i missed the deadline by 5,000 miles and it was o. K. To keep driving and not to worry about it. I researched and found that they have had a service bulletin (ntb07-042a) out about this issue since april, 17,2009. I have had my vehicle in a few times since the bulletin came out and feel that they should have notified me especially since i have paid for another bulletin issue regarding the fuel gauge(reference service bulletin ntb07-069b) that cost me $395. 00. I feel the dealership is negligent in advising my wife to not worry about the timing chain and to go ahead and deal with it later. It appears that they wanted more mileage to placed on the vehicle so they would have a stronger claim down the road to not pay for the repairs that were mentioned on a bulletin five months prior -which means that issues have existed long before this time frame for a bulletin to be issued. I live in atlanta, ga., a major metropolitan city and i feel that the dealership put my family at risk by advising that the vehicle was safe to drive off the lot because whent he timing chain goes the car looses the capability to function - which is not safe on the busy major interstate system. I have seen a few internet threads that mention similar experiences. Regarding the fuel gauge issue (ntb07-069b), this service bulletin came out august 12th, 2009 i had to have this work done on 04/24/2009 and it cost me the $395. 00. I have also had the vehicle in and repaired at my cost for service bulletin (ntb07-063)... Another bulletin i discovered today. The main point is a timing chain should not go out at 65,000 miles... Vehicle = lemon.
