Description of the problem	My car 2007 nissan xterra started to make a revving noise under the hood on sunday 10/2/2011. The next day i was on the highway on my way home from work when the check engine light came on. I cautiously drove the min speed limit to the mid-city nissan dealership which was less than 2 miles away at this point. The next day, mid-city nissan informed me that i needed the timing chain repaired asap. This sight isn't the better business bureau so i'll save you the extraneous lies nissan tried to sell me so they didn't have to fix my car which was under 46000 miles and still under extended nissan factory warranty. Not wanting to spend $2000 on a car that i am still paying for and is still considerably new at 46000 miles. So i called my trusted neighborhood mechanic to look at it. He concluded that the guards on the secondary belt are worn away and it need to be replaced. Looking into "timing chains on nissan trucks" becomes quite a fruitful search when browsing the internet. Right now there is a service bulletin for defective engines in trucks like mine. This is the first truck i've owned and i believed that the high pitched whining sound coming out of the engine was normal for such a big, powerful car. I'm afraid that the engine has sounded like this for the last few thousand miles. I feel if it's such a widespread problem among nissan truck owners, it could one day result in someones engine stalling on the highway. Thank goodness it wasn't me. Nissan needs to address this problem and there should be a recall on these engine parts.
