1998 NISSAN FRONTIER Complaints

BULB TO TAIL LIGHT POPS OUT OF SOCKET LAMP. ALSO, THERE IS NO BRAKE LIGHT TO WARN ANOTHER DRIVER THAT VEHICLE IS STOPPING OR SLOWING DOWN. NISSAN IS AWARE OF PROBLEM. BUT, CONSUMER'S VEHICLE ISN'T ONT RECALL. *AK

AM INTERESTED IN ANY REPORTED INSTANCES OF EITHER DRIVER OR PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOYING ON THIS MAKE/MODEL VEHICLE. I WAS INVOLVED IN A MOVING ACCIDENT WITH A LARGE DEER 0615 AM 30 JAN 01. I DIDN'T GIVE MUCH THOUGHT TO THE BAG/BAGS NOT DEPLOYING UNTIL BOTH THE INSURANCE REP AND THEIR APPRAISER WERE REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE BAGS NOT DEPLOYING. *AK

FIRESTONE WILDERNESS TIRES (P215 65 R15) EXPERIENCED TREAD SEPARATION, THESE TIRES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. *SLC

THE SIDEWALL OF THE LEFT FRONT FIRESTONE FIREHAWK TIRE BLEWOUT WHILE DRIVING WITH 25,000 MILE ON IT (P215/65R15 95S M+S DOT W2VF JBA 309). NLM

PE00 020; CONSUMER WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 50 MPH ON RAMP AND LEFT FRONT TIRE BLEWOUT. HE WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER, AND TIRE WAS CHANGED. FIRESTONE FIREHAWK #SS10, P215/ 65R15 AND DOT #W2VFJBA309. THERE WERE NO INJURIES, AND ALSO THERE WAS A WHITE CIRCLE AROUND THE TIRE.*AK

REAR SEATBELTS DO NOT PROPERLY RESTRAIN CHILDREN, WHEN EVER A CHILD MOVES AROUND BELT LOOSENS UP, AND WILL NOT TIGHTEN BACK UP.*AK

FRONT TORSION BAR LINKAGE BUSHINGS DO NOT HAVE WASHERS ON TOP TO RETAIN THEM IN PLACE. THIS ALLOWS THE BUSHING TO BE SHOVED OVER THE TOP OF THE RETAINING NUT RESULTING IN THE TOTAL FAILURE OF THE BUSHING.

REAR SEAT BELTS WILL NOT REMAIN "SNUG". BELT ASSEMBLY WILL FULLY LOOSEN AND WILL NOT PROTECT CHILDREN IN CASE OF ACCIDENT.

PE00 020; CONSUMER CHECKED HER FIRESTONE WILDERNESS#HT TIRES, P21565R15, AND SHE SAW CRACKING AND STRESS LINES ALL AROUND THE TIRES. CONSUMER NOTTFIED FIRESTONE. *AK

WHILE REFUELING I NOTICED 3-4 OR MORE PLACES ON THE TIRE WHERE THUMBNAIL SIZE CHUNKS OF RUBBER HAVE COME OFF OF THE TREAD.BEEN TO 1 FIRESTONE RETAILER & 1 FIRESTONE MASTERCARE TIRE & SERVICE CENTER COMPANY OWNED STORE. NO ONE WILL HELP. JUST KEEP GETTING RUN AROUND & TOLD TO GO TO ANOTHER STORE OR CALL SOMEONE ELSE. MADE A DOZEN OR MORE PHONE CALLS & VISITED TWO PLACES AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED & STILL NO HELP. I'VE ALSO CALLED THE 800 465-1904 NUMBER. THEY JUST REFER ME BACK TO A LOCAL STORE THAT I'VE ALREADY BEEN TO. CAN YOU HELP?( DOT NUMBER: W2VFNNA178 TIRE SIZE: P215/65R15 )
