2006 Nissan Armada Engine Problems

“We purchased our car used with 53,000 miles on it. Upon reaching 60,000 miles we heard some knocking and periodically smelled exhaust in the cabin while driving. We took it to the dealership for diagnosis and was told that both exhaust manifolds were cracked and needed replaced. We were also told that Nissan did extend the warranty for this issue on some 2006 armadas to 80,000 miles, however the time period had been too long for our car to be covered. …”

“I had my mom, aunt and 2 small kids in the truck we were on the way to drop my mom off at her home. Once I pulled up in front of her house we noticed the truck smoking. I got out of the vehicle and looked under the hood. I observed wires burning from that point I closed the hood so that the vehicle could cool off. I then walked my mom to her front door as I walked back to my vehicle I observed my truck on fire. I immediately rushed to the vehicle and got my kids and aunt out of the vehicle. The fire department was called and responded within 7 minutes. …”

“My husband and I were driving back home and our Nissan Armada breaks failed. Senor lights flash on and off all the time. Clicking sound when driving parked etc. Horrible sound from under vehicle, as I'm driving. Steering wheel shakes even after a wheel alignment. City streets and highway. I have taken the car to Nissan and they just brush it off and say there is nothing wrong with the car take it for a long drive.”

“The contact owns a 2006 Nissan Armada. While driving approximately 50-55 MPH, the engine stalled. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence and then towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 131,000. The VIN was not available.”

“Takata recall so I have a 2006 Nissan Armada that just recently had the exhaust manifold change out for crack manifold and it hasnt been a year yet and already have another crack manifold. Nissan really need fix this issue because no one has that kinda of money to be buying new exhaust manifold every year for emission.”
