Consumer Description

MY CRANKSHAFT IN THE ENGINE BROKE AT THE TIMING BELT PULLEY SIDE. I HAD ONLY 53288 MILES ON THE VAN AND HAVE FOUND OTHERS THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THE EXACT SAME FAILURE IN THE SAME LOCATION. BEGINNING IN 1996 NISSAN WENT TO A LARGER CRANKSHAFT. IF THIS WAS DUE TO A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE EARLIER CRANKSHAFTS (1993-1995) THEN CUSTOMERS SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED AND THE REPAIRS MADE. A BROKEN CRANKSHAFT AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED COULD BE FATAL. THIS HAS BEEN THE THIRD NOTED BROKEN CRANKSHAFT AT THE DEALERSHIP AT THIS LOCATION ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC.*AK
