#744246April 19, 2001
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
THE PROBLEM WITH FUEL PUMP WIRING INSIDE OF FUEL TANK. THE PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT A YEAR AGO WITH THE FUEL PUMP'S PERFORMANCE,SUCH AS HUMMING SOUND FROM TANK SECTION OR NO PUMP START UP AT STARTING THE ENGINE. BUT LAST DAY OF MARCH OF THIS YEAR I WAS NOT ABLE TO START THE CAR AT ALL DUE TO COMPLETE PUMP FAILURE. I CONSIDER MY SELF AS VERY GOOD MECHANIC AS FAR AS CAR IS CONCERN. WHEN I OPEN THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY , I DISCOVERED TWO ELECTRCAL WIRES,RED(+) AND BLACK(-), WERE TANGLED EACH OTHER. DUE TO FRICTION OF TWO WIRES TOGETHER, RED WIRE'S INSULATION WERE MAY BE TWO PAPER-THIN LEFTBOF BARE COPPER WIRE. BLACK WIRE WERE EVEN THINNER THAN RED'S WHERE I CAN ALMOST SEE THE BARE WIRES. I COULD ONLY IMAGINE WHAT COULD HAPEN WITH ELECTRICAL SHORT INSIDE THE FUEL TANK. I REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP WITH ORIGINAL FACTORY PART WITH DIFFERENT REARRANGEMENT OF ELECTRICAL WIRES. I WAS VERY LUCKY TO FIND THE PROBLEM EARLIER. YOU MAY CALL ME AT WORK OR E-MAIL ME .*AK

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION, SUSPENSION:REAR, AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
I'VE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY VAN STALLING ON ME IN. IT USUALLY HAPPENS IN HOT TEMPERATURES, BUT LATELY HAS BEEN HAPPENING IN AVERAGE TEMPS. THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THERE IS A VERY LOUD HUMMING NOISE COMING FROM THE BACK OF MY VAN. VERY SCARY! IT SOUNDS LIKE IT WILL EXPLODE! THIS STARTED HAPPENING ABOUT 1998. IN AUGUST 1998, WE WERE EVACUATING FOR A HURRICANE AND WE WERE LEFT STRANDED ON THE INTERSTATE. IT WAS HOT AND THE TRAFFIC WAS REALLY BAD. WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO! WE WAITED AROUND FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND THEN TRIED TO START THE ENGINE AND IT WORKED! ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. WE WAITED AGAIN, AND IT STARTED. 15 MINUTES DOWN THE ROAD, WE WERE STUCK! WE FINALLY WORKED OUR WAY OUT OF HARMS WAY, NEEDLESS TO SAY, VERY LATE! BAD WEATHER! THE NEXT DAY, WE DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE VAN! AS A MATTER OF FACT, THE VAN DIDN'T STALL ON US FOR ABOUT ANOTHER MONTH OR SO! THEN IT STARTED AGAIN! ALWAYS WHEN IT WAS HOT, AND SOMETIMES WHEN STUCK IN TRAFFIC! THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SOME TIME NOW! I'VE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT MY VAN AND THEY NEVER DID RETURN ANY OF MY CALLS! I BROUGHT MY VAN IN SEVERAL TIMES TO BE CHECKED OUT AND THEY COULD NEVER FIND A PROBLEM! ODD HUH? I NORMALLY DON'T HAVE ANY COMPLAINTS WITH MY VAN, BUT I JUST CAN'T CONTINUE TO DRIVE AROUND WITH MY CHILDREN, NOT KNOWING WHEN IT WILL STOP ON ME AGAIN! SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. RECENTLY, MY VAN STALLED ON ME AND LEFT ME ON THE HIGHWAY AND WOULDN'T GET ME BUT ABOUT 2 BLOCKS MORE WITHOUT STOPPING. THATS WHY I COULDN'T ENTER MY VIN #, BECAUSE MY VAN IS IN THE SHOP. THEY HAVE HAD IT FOR 2 DAYS NOW AND THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM! AGAIN! I'VE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS AND NOTICED A LOT OF OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. SHOULD THERE BE A RECALL OR SOMETHING? WHEN SO MANY VEHICLES WITH THE SAME MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR, HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS? HAVE PROBLEMS STARTING IN COLD WEATHER. HADHAD FRONT END ACCIDENT AND AIRBAG DIDN'T OPEN.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
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
