NO EVENT OTHER THAN 74K MILES. DURING 60K MILE SERVICE MECHANIC SAID MY RIGHT SIDE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WAS CRACKED AND THEY'D REPLACE IT FOR $405.00. QUIT NISSAN DEALERSHIP MECHANIC FOR GOOD. CURRENT MECHANIC FOUND SERVICE BULLETIN ONLINE ADDRESSING RIGHT-SIDE EXHAUST MANIFOLD CRACKING. I WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE TO REPLACE THE MANIFOLD. I DON'T KNOW WHETHER OR NOT I AM RECEIVING CO IN CAB OF 2001 NISSAN FRONTIER XE CREW CAB 4X4? *JB

POWER DOOR WINDOWS BEGIN "STICKING" WHILE POWERING UP AND EVENTUALLY FAIL AND GET STUCK. THIS HAPPENED ON MY FRIEND'S TRUCK JUST 2 WEEKS BEFORE MINE. OURS WERE MANUFACTURED JUST A FEW MONTHS APART AND IT HAPPENED ON BOTH OF MY WINDOWS (FRONT) WITHIN A WEEK OF EACH OTHER. A SMALL PLASTIC END ON THE WIRES USED TO "PULLEY" THE WINDOWS BREAKS AND ALLOWS THE WIRE TO WRAP IMPROPERLY AROUND THE WINDOW MOTOR'S INTERNAL PULLEY RESULTING IN WIRES OVERLAPPING AND EVENTUALLY WEDGING WITHIN THE MOTOR. THIS SHOWS ME THAT THIS IS A FLAW IN THE MANUFACTURERS WINDOW MOTORS ON NOT ONLY MY FRONTIER, BUT OTHERS I HAVE MET.*AK
