NHTSA Complaint #10346076 — 2005 NISSAN FRONTIER

WHY HAS THERE BEEN NO RECALL ON NISSAN FRONTIER PICKUP TRUCKS? THEY HAVE HAD THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS REPORTED ONLINE ABOUT TRANSMISSION FAILURE DUE TO CROSS CONTAMINATION OF TRANSMISSION FLUID AND ENGINE COOLANT DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION COOLER PIPE DESIGN. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. ALSO I HAVE A FAILED GAS GAUGE SENDING UNIT. AGAIN THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS ONLINE. THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON OTHER VEHICLES FOR THE SAME REASON, YET NOT ON THE NISSAN FRONTIER PICKUP. THE RECALLS ON OTHERS WAS ISSUED BECAUSE THERE WOULD BE FALSE READINGS OF FUEL LEVELS AND A PERSON COULD RUN OUT OF GAS IN TRAFFIC AND CAUSE AND ACCIDENT. THE SAME PROBLEM CAN OCCUR WITH THE NISSAN FRONTIER BECAUSE THE GAUGE GIVES AN INACCURATE READING OR SHOWS EMPTY YET THERE IS FUEL IN THE TANK AND THE OPERATOR WOULD HAVE NO IDEA IF HE IS ABOUT TO RUN OUT OF GAS OR NOT. BACK TO THE TRANSMISSION, THE TRANSMISSION CAN GO OUT COMPLETELY WITHOUT NOTICE DUE TO THE CROSS CONTAMINATION. THERE IS NO WAY TO NO IF THERE IS A PROBLEM UNTIL IT WAS TO LATE. THE TRANSMISSION WILL FAIL AND THERE IS NO WAY OF KNOWING THERE IS A PROBLEM UNLESS YOU CHECK THE RADIATOR PERIODICALLY. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO FIND THE PROBLEM WITH OUT HAVING AN ACTUAL BREAKDOWN. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE A RADIATOR, HAVE MY TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY CLEANED OUT TWICE TO REMOVE ANY COOLANT, AND NOW MY TRANSMISSION HAS COMPLETELY FAILED. I AM ASKING FRO AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE NISSAN FRONTIER PROBLEMS AND THE NUMBERS OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS. I AM SURE THERE WOULD BE A BASIS FOR A RECALL. *TR
