1 Engine Clicking And Tapping Noises problem of the 2006 Nissan Frontier

Failure Date: 11/16/2011

When starting the vehicle a whining clicking noise is noticeable until vehicle is at normal operating temperature . After investigating this problem on the internet I learned that this is not an isolated occurrence and Nissan motor corporation is well aware that this is a manufactures defect in there v6 motors at the timing chain guides but refuses to take responsibility to address and fix this problem and expects the owner of the vehicle to pay for Nissan motor corporation defective timing chain guides that end up dropping downward out of their original position that causes timing chain failure . I paid 24000 dollars for this truck brand new from metro Nissan in ontario calif, for that kind of money Nissan should treat there customers better and take responsibility for there mistakes and be held accountable to fix this defect. . I will never by a Nissan again and I will never recommend purchasing a Nissan to anyone if this doesn't become a recall!.
