(imagine an engine shut down while turning left with oncoming traffic.) though nissan customer care and my dealer indicate no recall has been issued, i am working with both the resolve. to me $26,000 is a substantial purchase, and commensurate product quality and customer support is expected. absent nissan standing behind its product, the estimated dealer repair cost is $500+. the potential cost of not repairing the fuel sending unit on any affected nissan vehicle is immeasurable. *tr.Mileage was 105000 miles.

Nissan Xterra 2005 Fuel System, GasolineNissan Xterra 2005 Fuel System, Gasoline Review #10303306 NISSAN XTERRA 2005 car safety problem was reported on Jan 30, 2010.NISSAN XTERRA 2005, manufactured by NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . i had 1/4 of a tank of gas and went to fill up. after filling up my gas tank, i turned on the car, at which point the needle did not register the full tank. after driving a couple miles, the check engine light came on. i went directly to the dealer and was told that it was a fuel sending unit/sensor and that it was no longer covered. after returning home and doing research, i went online to x.nissanhelp.com after performing a search, i came across many others who have experienced the same problem. apparently it has something to do with the fuel sending unit. a similar problem was found on the 2000-2004 xterra models and a recall was performed when the vehicle would stop after not getting any fuel, posing a great danger. it seems that something in the unit is faulty and will corrode over time. there is a general consensus that everyone who is having the problem is experiencing the same thing after having the vehicle for over 2 yrs and with around 39k-49k. if this problem existed in previous models, and it was recalled, the 2005-2007 xterras, frontiers, and pathfinders should get this fixed at no charge to the customer!! why wait for accidents and possible deaths, especially since the problem lies in an integral part of the vehicle. cost of repair ranges from $300-600. i eventually ran into a situation where i ran out of gas and was stranded due to the inability to know how much gas was in my tank. the vehicle stalled and i was stuck on the edge of a busy street until i could be towed. *tr.Mileage was 50000 miles.

Nissan Xterra 2005 Power Train Review #10468458 NISSAN XTERRA 2005 car safety problem was reported on July 05, 2012.NISSAN XTERRA 2005, manufactured by NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . my 2005 nissan xterra started having some problems early in july. on or about july 5 i was pulling onto highway 30 in montgomery illinois. there was oncoming traffic. i pushed the gas and proceeded to merge on to the highway. the car moved very slowly almost causing an accident. i pulled over out of traffic and rested car for approx 5min. when i began to accelerate again the car performed normally. i took to a mechanic who stated that the radiator fluids had mixed with the transmission fluids causing the transmission to slip and fail. after hearing this i went online and observed that over 500 people have also experienced the same problem and that it is a defect in the manufacturing of all 2005-2010 trucks and suv's. i have asked nissan to repair my car at their expense since it is a problem they knew about. they first stated they did not send me the original info on this problem because they did not know i owned the car. this is not true. they had previously sent me information about a tow bar issue/recall and a nissan dealer in san jose ca fixed that problem. i believe that nissan intentionally did not inform owners because they wanted the mileage to exceed what they were offering (80,000). had i known i would have had my truck looked at long before the mileage expired. what happened to me could happen to a family and if they were to pull into ongoing traffic an accident would certainly occur. this is very dangerous and nissan needs to do the right thing. i appreciate you opening an investigation on this and hope you get results before someone dies. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 115000 miles.

Nissan Xterra 2005 Power Train Review #10474351 NISSAN XTERRA 2005 car safety problem was reported on Apr 11, 2012.NISSAN XTERRA 2005, manufactured by Nissan North America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . i was noticing a difference in the shifting of my vehicle and took it to a transmission specialist who discovered i had radiator fluid mixed in with my transmission fluid. i was told my radiator needed to be replaced and the transmission flushed, which may or may not solve the problem. there was hope this would work as i caught the problem early and never had a service code pop up. i paid $1110 for this work. subsequently i contacted my nissan dealer who told me it was related to the radiator problem that nissan had extended the warranty on. i contacted nissan and made a claim for reimbursement and for the problem to be rectified completely. nissan advised me to take the vehicle to the dealer at my own expense for a diagnosis. the nissan dealer verified that indeed my problem was due to the radiator issue and my transmission needs to be replaced. i contacted the manufacturer again and when i told them this i was told my vehicle had surpassed the extended warranty of 80,000 miles and they would not assist. during my research, i have discovered that most of the people with the same problem were also over the 80,000 miles granted by nissan. my transmission completely stopped shifting and is parked in my driveway. i feel the extended warranty notice sent by nissan was very misleading. it stated a "radiator issue" which in no way identifies that is only the culprit and not that the transmission will be impacted and rendered useless. it would have been such an easier option to replace a radiator and continue to have transportation, then to have a lawn ornament. by the way...why was there never a service code light that alerted to the problem? *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 118214 miles.

Nissan Xterra 2005 Power Train Review #10482150 NISSAN XTERRA 2005 car safety problem was reported on Sept 18, 2012.NISSAN XTERRA 2005, manufactured by Nissan North America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . on september 18, i took my nissan xterra tot he dealership and made an appointment because it had a horrible shifting vibration and was jumping in between gears. however, after making the appointment for the next day, i was rear-ended and had to have body repairs made. i got the car back. the vibration was still there, of course, because the vibration had nothing to do with the body. i was in town where the dealership is located on october 18. i was pulling out of a drive onto a busy road. no power, the car only moved with gravity rolling toward the road and the engine revved with the gas. i stopped quick enough to avoid rolling onto the road which has a 45 mile an hour speed limit where i was. i shut the car off. i started it back up and with my foot on the brake i ran the shifter through the gears. when i tried to accelerate, it had some power, but it was clearly diminished. i headed for the dealership. the car was jerking so hard that it clunked my teeth together and made my neck and back hurt. i got to the dealership. it appears that my radiator rusted or cracked and leaked the fluid into my transmission causing it to destroy my transmission. all total, the repairs would be about $6,300. the car sits at the dealership because i am unemployed and cannot pay that on a car that i have managed while being unemployed since february to continue $482.58/mo payments on and having only 6 left!!! nissan refuses to help me because i have over 100,000 miles on the car. how would they have liked it if i had rolled into traffic and gotten killed or hurt? and, the person from nissan consumer affairs told me that they had just extended the warranty to 100,000 because of this problem. so, they even know it is a major problem. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 130000 miles.

Nissan Xterra 2005 Power Train Review #10487963 NISSAN XTERRA 2005 car safety problem was reported on Nov 27, 2012.NISSAN XTERRA 2005, manufactured by Nissan North America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . i recently had to replace my radiator and transmission due to the known 2005 nissan xterra radiator problem. the problem started off as heavy vibration when gears shifted, and the heater was noticeably not as warm as it had been. after a short amount of time with the vibration issues, the transmission got to a point where the vibrations would last longer, meaning the vehicle was not shifting gears reasonably. this became a serious safety issue when i was merging onto the interstate one day and my overdrive completely missed, leaving me in basically neutral at approx 50mph with no ability to accelerate with a car almost slamming into the rear of me since it could not move out of the lane to avoid me. for this not to be considered a safety issue is very ridiculous. a failing transmission is most certainly a safety issue when it fails while you are driving. nissan may have agreed to have this repaired for free for vehicles under 80000 miles, but the likelihood of this problem occurring is past 80000 miles. nissan should not only be responsible for the cost of this repair, but nissan should also be responsible for letting owners know of the symptoms, problems, and associated safety concerns with a failing transmission. as far as i am concerned, nissan has failed in every aspect of dealing with such a costly issue. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 93000 miles.

Nissan Xterra 2005 Fuel System, GasolineNissan Xterra 2005 Fuel System, Gasoline Review #10537228 NISSAN XTERRA 2005 car safety problem was reported on Aug 10, 2013.NISSAN XTERRA 2005, manufactured by Nissan North America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . gas gauge reads empty when the fuel tank is full or shows some quantity of gas when it is empty and variations in between. this is a known problem affecting several models and years that nissan extended its warranty for, but did not recall, claiming it is not a safety issue (see http://www.nissanassist.com/web/fuel-sending-unit/index.php?menu=2). the extended warranty did not advise owners to replace the problem sending units, it just provided for repairs if and when, subject to mileage and time limits, the vehicle manifested the sending unit problem. my low mileage vehicle developed this problem at 46000 miles, well under the extended warranty mileage limit but the timing was beyond the arbitrary extended time period. following my opening a case with nissan consumer affairs they denied coverage for replacement of the fuel sending unit as it was beyond the arbitrary time limit, although well below the mileage limit. faulty fuel quantity readings are not just an inconvenience. they can result in hazardous overfilling of fuel tanks (or attempts to fill an already filled tank) when the gauge erroneously reads empty resulting in flammable gas spills, dizzying and environmentally unsound vapor emissions at the pump. on the flip side when there is little or no fuel in the tank but the gauge shows some quantity of fuel such as 1/4 tank or more, driving off on long commutes or trips results in running out of gas on highways. in my case this is in rural areas or back roads and highways out of cell phone range and far from services, and can occur in severe weather conditions. i believe this known problem is a safety problem that poses unnecessary risks to drivers and should have resulted in a recall, not just an arbitrary limited extension of warranty, and disclaimer beyond that. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 45600 miles.

Nissan Xterra 2005 Reports
i took my 2005 nissan xterra to a dealership in long beach ca, to have them run a diagnostic test on why my check engine would go off. I drove off having more problems then a had when i took my vehicle into be tested. i paid 1'323.28 for a battery what does it mean when I put my 2004 Nissan Altima in drive and it takes it about 10 or seconds before it will go into drive. The weird thing is I can go into reverse with no problem or lower gear it goes I have a problem with my 2005 Nissan TPMS. After about 10 miles, the reading on the display changes to "**" for 1 of the 4 tires and the low pressure warning light comes on. I've checked pressure on the tires and they are all fine. The dealer t Why my 2008 Nissan maxima flat tire light keep on even we filled air full? i am getting zzon zoon sound from air compressor nissan maxima gxe model1997.what i have to do get its serving or replace the air compressor?please reply. hi would it cause the brakes to lock on if the brake light switch was fitted in the wrong postion on a 4 pin switch nissan tiida?. Crossed jumped my cars battery for 2 sec. Now car will crank but not start 2010 Nissan Frontier Extended Cab and five foot bed vibrates when starting off from a dead stop.....only lasts a second and again only when starting from a dead stop....dealers answer was has an 80,000 mile power train warranty, drive it till it b This is my 2nd quest. I've owned this one over a year. Do the sliding doors not have sensors? My other 05' did. My 1 year old got her fingers caught, thank God it was nothing major, but it could have been. Why would they not have sensors??? This can result in gradual wear over a period of time inside the joint that could lead to the separation of the wiper linkage assembly from the wiper motor linkage at the joint ball. I have a 05 nissan maxima with 35,000 miles. I'm not having a problem at this time. I would like to know if a transgo Kit for the valvebody will help to prevent future problems with the transmission. I have a 01 Niss UD 2600 No Fuel aqt the inj pump but fuel getting to the pump its been very cold and i have changed both filters. i was told there is a crank sensor in the inj. pump where is it?? And How do i check it
