I have a 2007 nissan xterra sport editionand have been having issues with cold starting.I think we have narrowed it down to the ECM computer being no good due to moisture around the backside of the module.Why in the first place would they put it under a hood knowing dirt and weather conditions would be an issue? Ive called my local Nissan and have been told mine is not on a recall list? Ummm maybe if they see how many people having the same issues are complaining they should add those years to the list.We started it with a blowdryer today but winters coming and im not too pleased about paying 300.plus dollars for replacement computer .Its not right that Nissan doesnt stand behind their products because i have only had my truck for 6 months and i really wanted it and i love it but if it is going tobe a headache i will most definately never buy a Nissan again point blank....think about how many customers they are losing by not doing the right thing?.
