2008 Nissan Frontier se 4x4 king cab. 35000 km notice rock chips in the paint, had some repaired at Nissan around bottom of doors(all four). Now am getting bubbling of paint and rust across the top of the windshield, wear I notice other paint chips. I've taking the truck back to Nissan wondering why the rock chip around the drivers side wheel well was not fixed when I brought the truck in the first time for paint damage, they said "we only pay up to 500 bucks in damage to paint for the hole truck'. . . . Now I have a brand new truck with 35000 km on it with rust. . I'm taking the truck over again today (Aug 9 2010) to brasso Nissan in calgary alberta, to show then the rust across the top of the windshield and see what happens. . . I've called Nissan of canada and they said ' take it to brasso Nissan first and see what happen, and call as back with the info brasso gives you. . .
Left work about 4 days ago at night when I was driving on the highway and the truck cut out on me(no gas pedal) so I look down at the voltage gauge and its reading about 10v. . . . . So I thought to myself "ok well maybe the alternator finally went after all the [xxx]I put it through. " went to pull over and here is where it gets weird, I went to hit the brakes and the pedal went to the floor, I coasted to the slow lane and turned my acc. Off and got it back home safely. Long story short I tested the alternator and battery, both of which were shorted/old/dead. . . . Replaced both at the tune of $191 for the alternator and $70 for the battery. Now, I hooked everything up today. Started the truck. . . Volt gauge is back at 10v. . . Then I see a small amount of smoke from under the hood, shut the truck off to find that the brake lines going from the master cylinder to the abs module are smoking. . . And the lines leaving the module are as well. I cooled everything down, went inside to grab a drink (4-5 min) and came back out and the truck was completely dead. . . Unhooked the battery and put it on a trickle charger for now. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
