While having minor cosmetic repairs done, our [reputable] body shop repairman pointed out that the front radiator support frame is completely rusted through. Everything else on this truck is solid. I am meticulous about it. There is obviously some sort of defect on this area for it to be 90% deteriorated! the slightest touch causes it to crumble. . . In the past, even Toyota has stood behind their vehicles with corrosion issues. . . I would certainly hope Nissan could look into this the same way. . . Its a real shame that I can only see another year maybe before my radiator falls out and causes something much worse. . .
