1993 Nissan Hardbody Pickup review from North America
"Not up to Japanese quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My timing chain guide broke after the first 3000 miles. Shortly after, transmission failure.
General comments?
This was my first and last Nissan purchase. Paying $3200 for a truck, you would think it would last more than 4 months.
First problem was the timing chain guide; had it repaired, setting me back $1500. A month later the transmission went out.
I was hoping this truck would be up to Toyota standards.
