My 2009 Nissan Frontier came with a full size spare tire that had no sensor for the tire pressure monitoring system. This means that, when I rotated the tires, the tpm system lit up and stayed on. Further, the system will stay on 80% of the time, which is the amount of time that the spare will be on the ground during the life of the tires. It will be in the spare position only 20% of the time. It seems that adding a sensor to the spare should greatly increase safety with only a slight increase in cost per vehicle.

Tire pressure monitoring system for Nissan products. I read the recall and service posting. You must include 2007 vehicles such as my 2007 Nissan Frontier pick up truck 4wd. This same condition has been a problem on my truck since mid/late 2008 and driving me crazy. The light now comes on after about 20 minutes of driving. . . First blinking and then steady. It goes off after 10 minutes. Problem is, this happens now every day. Please include 2007 vehicles such as mine. Thanks, jim triebwasser.

First noticeable complaint is the automatic transmission that does not shift back down in lower gear when climbing a hill. It jerks and shakes at that moment. Secondly, the tire pressure sensor does not go off after correcting the tire pressure and keeping it constant. Were told the dealer will have to reset,which they did once and it happened again so for 2 years we have just lived with it, keeping check on tire pressure the old way. Last but definitely not least for this is the cost factor involved, is the alignment cannot be done due to needing to purchase and have installed 4 camber kits! Nissan should have done this already for a $25,000 vehicle!! OH and finally this just happened but the rear passenger power window switch went completely out!.
