1995 NISSAN D21 Structureframe And Members Problems

I BOUGHT A ONE OWNER LOW MILEAGE 63,000 MILES 1995 NISSAN KING CAB 4X4 TRUCK. I TOOK IT IN FOR A OIL CHANGE AND WAS REFUSED SERVICE DUE TO THE FRAME DEEMED UNSAFE TO SUPPORT THE VEHICLE WHILE RESTING ON THE VEHICLE LIFT. I HAVE DOCUMENTED WORK ORDERS FROM ZIEBART STATING WHEN NEW FROM THE DEALER UNDERCOATING WAS APPLIED AND YEARLY INSPECTED FOR THE DURATION OF THE IMPLIED WARRANTY (10 YRS). STILL THE FRAME IS 40% GONE. DOES NISSAN UNDERSTAND MY BLUE BOOK VALUED TRUCK OF $5,300.00 IS NOT ONLY WORTHLESS IT COULD KILL ME OR OTHERS WHEN THE FRAME DOES COLLAPSE UNDER NORMAL HIGHWAY USAGE. PLEASE NISSAN DO SOMETHING! *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN A ONE OWNER TRUCK. I HAVE CAREFULLY MAINTAINED AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO STOP A SERIOUS FRAME RUST PROBLEM. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER AND CORPORATE USA NISSAN. NISSAN HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS MY REPEATED REQUESTS FOR ASSISTANCE WITH THIS MATTER. I CAN NOT BE CERTAIN AT WHAT POINT THE TRUCK BECOMES UNSAFE TO OPERATE. NISSAN NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE ASAP TO PREVENT ANY SAFETY PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE AS OTHER MANUFACTURES HAVE IN THE PAST. *KB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1995 NISSAN PICKUP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS BEING EXAMINED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHEN THE MECHANIC NOTICED SMALL HOLES THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE FRAME. THE MECHANIC PATCHED UP ALL THE HOLES, BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT PASS INSPECTION AFTER THE REPAIRS. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO A FRAME SPECIALIST, WHO REPLATED THE FRAME WITH STEEL. THE VEHICLE AGAIN WOULD NOT PASS INSPECTION BECAUSE THE CROSS MEMBER WAS CORRODED. THE MANUFACTURE WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT AGAIN REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 117,000.

I SEE THAT YOU ARE INVESTIGATING THE FRAMES ON THE INFINITI QX AND NISSAN PATHFINDERS. THE NISSAN HARDBODY TRUCKS ALSO SUFFER THE SAME FRAME PROBLEMS AS THE AFOREMENTIONED VEHICLES. HERE IS A LINK THAT WILL SHOW YOU THAT FRAME FAILURE IS ALSO COMMON IN THE HARDBODY TRUCKS. HTTP://WWW.CARSURVEY.ORG/REVIEWS/NISSAN/PATHFINDER/R78984/COMMENTS/PAGE-13/ THERE ARE MANY HARDBODY OWNERS ON THERE ASKING FOR A REMEDY AS WELL. MY FRAME ON MY 95 IS RUSTED AND CRACKING AS WELL RIGHT BEHIND THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT SUSPENSION. ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE FRAME GIVES WAY AND CAUSES A CRASH ON MY TRUCK AND SEVERAL OTHERS. NISSAN MOTOR CORP NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND GET THESE TRUCKS OFF THE ROADS. *TR

FRAME OF THE TRUCK IS RUSTED OUT VERY BADLY. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. NO NOTIFICATIONS OF THE COMMON DEFECT. OTHER OWNERS AND DRIVERS OF THE VEHICLES OF SAME MAKE AND MODEL NEEDS TO MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. ALSO, THESE TRUCKS SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

SEVERE FRAME RUST WHICH WEAKENS THE STRUCTURE. REQUIRED WELDING SEVERAL PIECES OF STEEL PLATE TO THE FRAME TO STRENGTHEN THE RUSTED AREAS. THE PROBLEM CONTINUES AT OTHER AREAS OF THE FRAME AS CHUNKS OF RUSTED METAL CONTINUE TO SEPARATE FROM THE INSIDE OF THE FRAME RAILS. *TR

FRAME IS ALL ROTTED OUT AND IS BREAKING IN HALF. *TR

THE ENTIRE UNDERCARRIAGE AND FRAME IS RUSTED OUT. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE GASOLINE LINES, THE BRAKE LINES AND THE POWER STEERING LINES. THE FRAME IS TOTALLY RUSTED OUT AND CAN NOT PASS INSPECTION. EVERY COMPONENT UNDER THE VEHICLE IS DANGEROUSLY RUSTED AND FRAIL. BOTH FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS ARE ALSO FALLING OFF. ALSO EVERYTHING IN THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE IS DISINTEGRATING. I HAVE CALLED NUMEROUS AGENCIES, INCLUDING NISSAN, BOTH DEALERSHIPS AND THEIR HEADQUARTERS, INQUIRING ABOUT RECALLS DUE TO THE RUSTED OUT FRAME ISSUES AND GET NOWHERE. THEY DENY ANY PROBLEM EXISTS. I UNDERSTAND THAT TOYOTA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED A SIMILAR ISSUE AND HAS TAKEN EXTREME ACTIONS TO BUY BACK OR REPAIR THE AFFECTED VEHICLES. *TR

FRAME RUST ON A 1995 NISSAN TRUCK -- HAVE TRIED TO HAVE THE FRAME REPAIRED BUT RUST DAMAGE IS TOO MUCH. REPAIR SHOP SAID TRUCK IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. *TR

FRAME RAILS ON 1995 NISSAN PICKUP RUSTING OUT FROM INTERIOR. RESEARCHING WEB FOR SOLUTIONS INDICATE A LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS. WHILE IT IS AN OLD TRUCK WITH HIGH MILES, IT APPEARS TO ME THAT A DEFECT IN DESIGN, FINISHING, OR MATERIALS MAKES THIS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR THOSE PICKUPS (AND PATHFINDERS) ON THE ROAD TODAY. *TR

EXTENSIVE RUSTED FRAME. *TR

FRAME RUSTED BADLY AND ROTTED THROUGH AT REAR LEAF SPRING FORWARD MOUNT, REAR CAB MOUNT AND FRONT BED MOUNT. *TR

ALTHOUGH THIS HAS NOT LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT YET, THE FRAME ON MY 1995 NISSAN PICKUP TRUCK IS RUSTING SO BAD IT APPEARS TO BE ROTTING. I CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING IT, BUT SCARED TO SEE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. I KNOW TOYOTA HAS BOUGHT BACK THERE OLDER PICKUPS AND I THINK NISSAN SHOULD DO SOMETHING OTHER THEN TURN THEIR CHEEK. *TR

I CURRENTLY OWN A 1995 NISSAN PICK UP TRUCK THAT HAS SEVERE FRAME RUST BEYOND WHAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED NORMAL. IT IS TO THE POINT THAT IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN. I HAD CONTACTED NISSAN AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY WOULD BE WILLING TO DO. AFTER RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM IT APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN ISSUE ON NISSANS PART AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO OWN UP TO IT. I CAN SEND YOU PHOTO DOCUMENTATION OF THE FRAME TO PROVE THAT IT IS NOT REGULAR WEAR AND TEAR ON THE VEHICLE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC LAST WEEK AND THE TRUCK WAS DEEMED UNSAFE AND DANGEROUS BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF FRAME RUST. *TR

THE FRAME OF MY TRUCK IS ROTTING THROUGH. IT STARTED WITH THE AREA OVER THE BACK WHEELS, THE GARAGE REFUSED TO GIVE ME A STATE INSPECTION UNTIL I HAD IT REPAIRED. I HAD METAL PATCHES WELDED OVER THE DEFECTIVE AREAS ON BOTH SIDES OF MY VEHICLE. NOW A YEAR LATER THE FRAME HAS SPLIT IN BOTH SIDES OF THE TRUCK BEHIND THE FRONT WHEELS. I CONTACTED NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICE AS WELL AS THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO NO AVAIL. THEY SAID THIS WAS DUE TO ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. *TR

I BOUGHT A 95, 4X4 NISSAN PICKUP IN 2006. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER, ARMORY NISSAN IN ALBANY, NEW YORK FOR A DIAGNOSTIC WORKUP. THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS ALRIGHT, SO I BOUGHT IT. 2 YEARS LATER, WITH ONLY 70 SOME ODD THOUSAND MILES ON IT, I CANNOT GET THE VEHICLE INSPECTED BECAUSE THE FRAME IS SO RUSTED OUT IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. ( I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL NEIGHBORHOOD GARAGE) I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND MY STATEMENT WAS TAKEN. THEY TOLD ME TO GO TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALER AND GET A DIAGNOSTIC AND SEND THE REPORT TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. I HAD TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC - $46.00. I HAD TO ARRANGE TO HAVE THE TRUCK TOWED FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD GARAGE TO NISSAN ARMORY. I TOLD THEM THIS TIME THAT IF THE FRAME CAME DIAGNOSED AS "OK" I WAS GOING TO ASK...
