| Description of the problem | 2006 nissan xterra 4x4 - bought new - only owner - perfectly maintained after reading all the information from nissan we thought since we hadn't had issues that we were safe. Not to mention that our xterra was over the mileage that would qualify us for the extended warranty. Our transmission just quit leaving us stranded away from home with our two children. 130,000 miles on the odometer. We contacted nissan only to get an email saying they could not help us with our issue. This is a known issue! An internal crack on the oil cooler tube so why are they not standing behind their vehicles? We have been die hard nissan fans since purchasing our xterra in 2006! We even own a titan too. We were contemplating adding a nissan juke to our nissan collection. However now we do not feel we can trust nissan nor do we like the fact that they are not standing behind their vehicles. We wont purchase another nissan ever. |
