| Description of the problem | I turned on my truck in the morning it made a weird noise it sounded like something was rattling in the truck i checked the truck water oil everything looked normal except the noise ... I went who work after work i a son as i turned on truck noise was louder and i couldn't drive it more then 20miles it started shaking and swerving i rite away took it to a mechanic ... And he said that the timing belt and transmission were the cause of that rattle noise and that's why i couldn't run it more than 10-20miles ... Now to fix it's 4,500 for a new transmission... I had just got the viechle 3 months ago from the dealership now they won't help me fix . Now am stuck with a car that doesn't work and still making payments... I've seen online that nissan suv's have this kind of problem that's like a manufacturer defect . |
