Example complaints
Body and structure: “While towing a 600 lb trailer (aproximate inside cargo was 100 lbs)with my Nissan frontier(weight recommendation of 2000 lbs or less as stated in owner's manual), the rear bumper broke also causing my trailer to ram into the broken bumper.no one was injured but Nissan isn't backing thier product with my warranty. They are saying that I should not have been towing, if so why would the owner's manual have spec's on how much weight you can tow and besides who ever heard of a truck that you can't use for towing?”
NHTSA complaint #10030647, filed 2003-08, 6,900 milesVehicle speed control: “Gas throttle was stuck and the RPM was racing very high. I had to use both feet on the brakes to keep the vehicle under control before putting it into neutral. The case occurred when I was approaching a traffic light. According to maroone Nissan in miami, it is the throttle cable which is damaged. My truck had the last two major service done at the same location. My minor services like oil changes is never usually done there and I can watch when they are working on the vehicle. I just want to make sure that if this becomes a serious issue, it is on record.”
