Axle Assembly Problems of Nissan Frontier

The contact owns a 2002 Nissan Frontier. The failurewas related to recall #02v299000 regarding rear axle. The recall states that: on certain pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles, water may enter the rear axle housing due to inadequate sealing of the anti lock braking system (abs) sensor. This could result in corrosion and eventual failure of the wheel bearing. If this occurred the wheel assembly could separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. He stated that one of the seals was blown and it now has water in it. He called Nissan, and they said that therewas nothing that they could do about it, that his vehicle was not affected by the recall. He also took the vehicle to a local foreign dealer and they told him that the problemwas a definite issue relating to the recall, and that he would not recommend that he drive anywhere because it could cause the problem to worsen. He stated that when he drove the car the wheels became to rotate, and when he went to pull the cap off there was a milky substance, which indicated that there was water in the axle.

Problem 1) difficult to start when engine is hot and truck has sat for 1-4 hours problem 2) vibration in driveline under light acceleration in overdrive and when truck bed has weight in it viration occurs all the time. Dealer had truck for three times before deciding to shim the rearend which has not helped any. I believe the problem is with Nissans brand new transmission that is in this truck but it seems they dont want to accept that fact. I have gone as far as to have a Nissan engineer from denver look at this truck but still no fix. Problem 3) passanger side door glass is loose in the frame and rattles-dealer has not yet been notified about this latest problem on the crappy truck. Also to let you know there have been problems with the brakes that the dealer managed to fix after the 3rd trip for repairs.
