ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL TOOK BACK OF VEHICLE AND WELDED IT ON A 1-TON PICKUP CAB. CONSUMER STATED THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS.*AK
MANUL FOR 86 PICKUP "RECOMMENDS" REPLACING TIMING BELT AT 60,000 MILES. THIS IS NOT A "RECOMMENDATION, IT IS A REQUIREMENT. THE SUDDEN AND COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND BRAKES CAN BE DEADLY. I CANNOT BELIEVE THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS TYPE FAILURE, COMMON PLACE WITH NISSANS AND HONDAS. I DELAYED REPAIR UNTIL I HAD TIME TO INVESTIGATE THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE OF THE BELT CAUSES THE VALVES TO CONTACT THE PISTONS BENDING THE VALVE STEMS. THERE IS NO WARNING OF IMMINENT FAILURE NOR AN INDICATOR TO SHOW THAT THE BELT HAS BEEN REPLACED. THIS IS NOT A NORMAL MAINTENANCE ITEM AND A CONSUMER SHOULD NOT BE EXPECTED TO PAY FOR THE MAJOR COST TO REPLACE A TIMING BELT. HOW CAN ANY MANUFACTURER PERMIT A SUBSTANDARD PART TO DESTROY THE ENGINE?*AK
SEPARATION AT SIDEWALL AND TREAD ON ALL 4 TIRES. *AK (TIRESIZE: 30X95R15LT)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 30X95R15LT )
ENGINE QUITS WHILE DRIVING AND IS EXTREMELY HARD TO START SINCE FUEL PUMP OPERATION IS SPORATIC. A NEW FUEL PUMP, IGNITION SWITCH, PUMP RELAY AND FUSE (ALL GENUINE NISSAN PARTS) HAVE BEEN INSTALLED AND PROBLEM STILL EXISTS AND IS GETTING WORSE. THE STALLING PROBLEM HAS FORCED ME TO SEVERELY LIMIT MY DRIVING TO BACK ROADS.
VEHICLE EXPERIENCED FIRE UNDER DASH, DUE TO POSSIBLE WIRING HARNESS UNDER DASH FAILURE, CAUSING MINOR INJURY. (OHIO TRAFFIC CRASH REPORT). MJS
