Symptoms began as random hard shifts, then progressed to a sudden loss of power and high rpms. If the vehicle was turned off and on, the transmission would engage and you could drive a couple hundred feet before it began slipping again. I used this tactic of turning it off and on again to get the vehicle off of the highway. Vehicle has not been sent to shop as of yet. Taking a turn, my Nissan Frontier 2007 suddenly stops right in the middle of the street causing traffic jam, I was lucky enough not to be t-boned with my kids seating on the back. Nissan knew about is but never advised costumers about it to open a recall campaign. Need help with this. Truck was bought brand new at the dealer.

Radiation system and transmission.

I was driving down my driveway and my truck just wouldn’t move I always fill my fluids and get flushes on time when I got my last oil change they said there was milked goo goo in my coolant.

On June 30, July 6 and 9th 2021 I was driving down the street at 50 miles p/hr. And the truck just stopped in the middle of the road. No engine just stopped. I called the nhtsaand reported this according to the October 28th 2010nhtsa campaign number 10v517000 engine control model. It was recalled and supposedly repaired. The person I talked to kathyrn said that it had been recalled and fixed so it was no longer a recall problem. This vechile is a safety recall and still is, it should be fixed, it was evidently not fixed before.

This vehicle suddenly starts to accelerate on its own like it's in cruise control only it's not and I'm not pressing the gas pedal. It would go well only a 100 if I let it and applying the brakes does nothing. The only way of stopping the vehicle is to put it in neutral and one time that didn't stop it and I had to put it in park and turn off the key. I've taken the vehicle to 3 different garages and they are not able to figure out what the issue is. I've contacted Nissan and they have no recalls of this. I finally looked online and saw that other people have been in accidents because of the same problem. This vehicle is deadly to drive and I'm a professional driver so luckily I knew what to do when this happens. I am not able to drive truck safely and I'm not able to sell it or even give this to anyon because I would be responsible when they kill someone from the mechanical failures. I bought the truck for my teenage son and obviously he can't drive it.

Engine vibration at low rpm that can't be explained by several mechanics.

You have to call the dealership Nissan in albuquerque nm on lomas I took the truck in and it's going to be about 5,000 to fix.

Was on a vacation trip December 6, 2019(Friday). Traveling on foley beach express and the engine started shacking, felt like was falling apart, engine died. Tried to restart engine, cranked and immediately stopped, tried several times and and the same thing every time. Had to push off express way, with help. Fortunally was a mechanic. He said seamed as was not getting fuel. Futher checking more the mechanic said it was in the intelligent power distribution module (ipdm) or the (ecm) relay. I am broke down 190 miles from home. Had to have my vehicle 90 miles to mobile,a>> and am stuck. Had to rent an vehicle to get home costing me $214. 00 to get home to go to work Monday. My vehicle is stuck in mobile, al.

Filed a compalint #11288301. Jjust want to be put on the recall update list in the future. Thanks.

My truck has had what feels to me like a rough idle for about as long as I've had it. It was fine for several years but a couple of months ago the truck died at a stop light. It started right back up and I didn't think I'd be able to replicate this for a mechanic so I just kept driving it. It also died once on my wife but she didn't tell me about it at the time. A couple of weeks ago I was driving on the highway at lower speeds due to traffic. It died on me again and this time it wouldn't start. I had to have it towed to a Nissan dealer. They repaired a part in the transmission and gave it back to me. It seemed ok but after about ten miles it died again. I brought it back and they said they couldn't find anything wrong with it. They cleaned the throttle body and gave it back to me. It is still idling rough. It hasn't died again yet but I'm afraid of what might happen if it does. I've looked online and this is a common problem with these trucks. I think it has some defect that needs to be addressed through a recall for the safety of drivers on the road.

Takata recall. . A transmission issue.

I was driving to work in the morning , about 10 miles to work on the highway not a tree or car insight , I heard what sounded like a loud pop / I had no idea what it was , not a tire or anything I look up and see my sunroof shattered.

Tl- the contact owns a 2006 Nissan Frontier. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start, when attempted to drive. There was no warning indicator light illuminated. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or an independent mechanic for a diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was unknown. Aw.

Vehicle will not change gears and is sluggish. The display on the speedometer does not show the position of the transmission. I have spent over 600 dollars to find out that the transmission control module is bad and that there was a recall to fix coolent leaking into the transmission fluid. My vehicle is still broken because of the part cost 1100 usd and the repair. Total bill is 1600 usd. This was a known problem and should be fixed without me paying a dime. My vehicle was in motion. Now it won't even get up to speed the transmission sounds as if it is stuck in a gear. Very erratic. My cruise control also just blinks and when the mechanic tested the codes it gave a network failure code.

Transmission damage caused by transmission cooler.

On 11/10/2018 while driving on the freeway with no warning light my 2006 Nissan starts to lose power!!! I was able to get off the freeway and pull into a gas station to call aaa to tow it to a mechanic. The mechanic told me the transmission has coolent in it and the transmission will need I be rebuilt or replaced with a rebuilt transmission. He said there was a crack in the coolent hose that was a manufacture defect. I never got any warning light until after the transmission failed.

Cross contamination coolant and transmission . Vehicle will not start. Was perfectly fine one month ago when took it to Nissan for service.

While driving truck on highway it occasionally felt like I was driving over rumble strips.

When the throttle pedal is pressed the engine does not react immediately. Very difficult to pull out into traffic. Very dangerous pulling out into traffic. You never know how long it is going to take for the engine to respond to the throttle position sensor (tps) and accelerate. I have been to the selling dealer 2 times for this, they cannot "duplicate" the issue.

While driving on a county highway, the engine caught fire for no apparent reason resulting in the total loss of the vehicle. Engine compartment was completely destroyed. About 2100 miles on odometer, speed at time of fire was about 30 mph. I had been driving about 5 minutes, just long enough for the engine to warm up. I checked the oil about 1 week prior to the fire and reading was normal. No problems starting the vehicle and it was running normally until the flames erupted from under the hood. No injuries or other property damage.

Tl- the contact owns a 1998 Nissan Frontier. The contact stated that the engine constantly lost power. The dealer (campbell Nissan of edmonds, 24325 wa-99, edmonds, wa 98026, (425) 774-2174) was notified of the failure, but was unable to provide a permanent remedy to repair the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to two different independent mechanics who diagnosed that the engine assembly needed to be replaced. The first independent mechanic rebuilt the engine, but the failure continued with the contact having to go across 4 lanes of traffic to an exit ramp as the vehicle was lost power. The vehicle was towed to the second independent mechanic who stated that the engine assembly needed to be replaced again. The manufacturer was notified. The manufacturer issued eight tsbs for the engine, but no recalls for the engine concerning this year, make, and model. The VIN and failure mileage were not available.

In January 2018 my Nissan was running great . . . . Drove to work and when I came out to go home the truck wouldn't start. . My truck has been sitting since then. . Cant afford a new transmission but I was told it is the main board to the transmission. . I have power but it will not start. The vehicle remains in my garage. . . I had no warning before the this happened. Had to pay a tow fee straight to Nissan dealer for diagnostic and they told me it was my battery and starter. . We \replaced both and still nothing. I sure hope someone can help me because the cost to fix the problem as I was told was gonna be around $4500 they wanna replace the tranmission.

After 2 and a half months of fighting with Nissan consumer affairs, Nissan has basically told me they do not care about me or the other people affected by this issue or their safety. As sad as it sounds its going to take someone getting killed because of this issue before they open their eyes.

Truck cuts off while driving no matter what speed your at. Have to wait a few seconds to get it to start again.

When I drive on highway, my 2006 Frontier is shaking or vibrating even if I completely stop, I have 118,000 mileage. I went to my dealer and change the spark plug, change the valve gasket cover, and do oil change because the service engine went on. I did finished the service, my service advisor called my phone and he said that my truck is ready for pick up. I arrived, went to the cashier I paid $748 for the service, got my truck. Then I drove after a munite the shaking issue is still thier so I called my advisor, he advised me to bring back and do diagnos test for $150. After the diagnose test they said they found missing accelaration and need to replace 4 ignition coil for $1114. 00 parts/labor. Unfortunately I paid $749 for the recent repair, so, because I spent a lot of money for the first repair, he only want me do 2 ignition coil replaced for $775 parts/labor.

Crankshaft sensor went bad at 70,000 miles. Resulted in engine shutting off while driving which resulted in loss of power steering and brake boosting. Luckily had just turned onto a residential road so had space to stop truck.

Nissan timing chain needs replaced, Nissan has not published TSB's about the issue. Costs are 4000 by Nissan. Bought truck used. If Nissan has not published any tsbs, why should a consumer have to shell out thousands of dollars to fix the issue.

My Nissan dealer told me today that the timing chain on the 4. 0l v6 engine in my truck requires replacement. This truck has less than 60,000 miles on it and the dealer charges $2,140 for the work. Timing chains are normally expected to last for the life of the vehicle. Failure of the timing chain would destroy the engine and, if it occurred while the vehicle was in motion, could result in a crash. Nissan has known about a defective timing chain problem on this and related engines since at least 2004, yet they continued to use those defective timing chains until approximately 2010. Nissan should issue a recall and replace the chains under warranty.
