WHILST DRIVING IN BAD WEATHER I HAD MY 4 WHEEL DRIVE ENGAGED. I WAS DRIVING 5 MILES AN HOUR ON A STRAIGHT GRAVEL ROAD, WHEN I STARTED HEARING A GRINDING NOISE. BEFORE I COULD GET STOPPED SAFELY TO SEE WHAT THE ISSUE WAS THERE WAS A LARGE THUD AND MY ENTIRE TRUCK SHOOK. IT WAS THEN POURING GEAR LUBRICANT OUT OF MY FRONT DIFFERENTIAL. AFTER TAKING THE TRUCK APART TO FIND THE DAMAGE I DISCOVERED THE AXLE SHAFT (NISSAN PART NO.: 38220-8S11A) HAD BEEN STRIPPED OF ITS SPLINES ON THE END. THE PART LOOKS AS IF IT WAS MACHINES PERFECTLY CYLINDRICAL. THE METAL SHAVINGS FROM THE SHAFT SLIGHTLY MARRED UP THE SEALS SO I REPLACED THE SEALS AND SHAFT, SPIDER GEARS SEEMED OKAY TO REUSE.

NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2004-2006 ARMADA, TITAN, INFINITI QX56 AND MODEL YEAR 2005-2006 FRONTIER, PATHFINDER AND XTERRA VEHICLES. THE INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE (IPDM) ASSEMBLY CONTAINS AN ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM) RELAY THAT HAS A DIODE FOR ELECTRICAL CURRENT NOISE REDUCTION. THE ECM RELAY MAY ALLOW SILICON VAPOR TO FORM AND, OVER TIME, THE SILICON EVAPORATES FROM THE DIODE MOLDING WHICH CAUSES SILICON OXIDE TO DEVELOP ON THE ECM RELAY CONTACT DUE TO ARCING., I HAVE OWNED THIS TRUCK SINCE 2005, WHY WAS I NOT NOTIFIED BY NISSAN OF THIS RECALL, AND WHAT CAN I DO TO CORRECT THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION?

IN JULY 2016, I APPEALED TO NISSAN NORTH AMERICA FOR PAINT DEFECTS ON MY TRUCK. THE PAINT CONTINUES TO PEEL OFF . MY TRUCK IN PATCHES AND HAS HAD NO OTHER REPAIRS. I DID A PRESURSORY SEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND NUMEROUS OWNERS WITH PAINT DELAMINATING,PEELING OFF AND CHIPPING.I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN AND THEY DENIED MY CLAIM STATING THAT IT WAS AATTACHED TO A PAST WARRANTY, BUT IT CLEARLY IS A LARGER ISSUE. I LOOKED AT THE CLUB NISSAN FORUM, AND CARCOMPLAINTS WEBSITE AND OTHERS ARE HAVING A SIMILAR ISSUE.
