ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE
I WOULD LIKE TO ADD MY COMPLAINT TO THE LONG LIST YOU ALREADY HAVE ABOUT THE BROKEN BOLTS ON THE FRONT AND REAR MANIFOLDS. I HAD THREE BROKEN STUDS THAT NEEDED RE-DRILLING AND ONE BOLT THAT ONLY NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE MANIFOLDS WERE WARPED AND HAD TO BE REMOVED AND PLANED. TOTAL COST WAS $756.16. THE PROBLEM I WAS HAVING WAS A LOUD RATTLE NOISE. WHEN I ASKED THE MECHANIC ABOUT NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM I WAS TOLD IT WAS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. THERE APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT IN THIS ENGINE MODEL. I UNDERSTAND IT IS ALSO PREVALENT IN THE PATHFINDER AND OTHER NISSAN MODELS. WHEN I CALLED MY NISSAN DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. NISSAN SAID THEY HAS ISSUED A TECHNICAL BULLETIN ON THIS ISSUE AND FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE RELATIONS THEY WERE FIXING 1994 PATHFINDERS WITH THIS PROBLEM IF THEY HAD 100,000 MILES OR LESS. *JB

#766672September 4, 2002
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE
MANIFOLD BOLTS KEEP MELTING AND BREAKING. THE BOLTS ARE POPPING AS FAST AS THE REPAIR PERSON CAN PUT THEM IN. THE MANIFOLD BOLTS COST ABOUT $80 EACH. UNITED NISSAN SAYS THAT THE COST TO FIX ONE IS ABOUT $700 IF THEY DO NOT ENCOUNTER ANY ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS. IN 1997, WE PAYED A DEALERSHIP IN GULFPORT MISSISSIPPI OVER A @1000 TO PUT IN A TRANSMISSION BECAUSE METAL PARTS WERE IN OUR TRANSMISSION AND RADIATOR. THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE WHERE THE METAL WAS COMING FROM, BUT IT TORE UP THE TRANSMISSION. I WROTE AND CALLED NISSAN AND THEY HAVE A COPY OF MY REQUEST FOR HELP BUT NO HELP WAS PROVIDED.

NISSAN DEALER TOLD US THIS WAS NOT A COMMON PROBLEM AND THEY HAD NOT SEEN IT BEFORE. (THAT WAS A LIE) BROKEN STUD BOLTS WHERE MANIFOLD CONNECTS TO ENGINE. 5 STUD BOLTS REPLACED 10/01 FOR $600. TOLD IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN BY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. INFERIOR BOLTS USED. ANY OTHER BREAKAGE WOULD REQUIRE REMOVAL OF ENGINE TO REACH THE REST OF BOLTS. $1000 FOR REPAIR. CURRENTLY HAS BROKEN BOLTS AND WE'RE NOT READY TO MAKE THE REPAIR AGAIN.
