Faults:

The tappets are noisy on the vehicle.

The air conditioning clutch is making noise.

The manual transmission is difficult to engage from first to second gear when it is cold outside.

General Comments:

Overall the vehicle is excellent.

The vehicle has an average of 26.5 miles per gallon at 65 miles per hour.

The vehicle is squeak and rattle free.

The motor is good for anywhere between 250,000 and 350,000 miles with routine fluid and filter changes.

The vehicle is sound, reliable transportation.

Faults:

I do not use this truck off road.

A leaf in both rear springs broke.

A cab mount broke on passenger rear side.

Emergency brake mechanism on rear wheels seized.

I also had rust on all four chrome rims and both bumpers.

The sending unit for the gas tank failed.

General Comments:

I feel my truck is a good truck and is in very good condition.

I have to keep after the chrome rims to prevent the rust from getting worse.

Rear bumper was replaced under warranty.

I fought with dealer over front bumper until warranty period was over and then tried Customer Satisfaction Line. By then it was too late. After buying a 1994 Nissan Pathfinder and a 1995.5 Hard Body, two of my in-laws also bought a Pathfinder and a Hard Body. I recently gave up on Nissan and purchased a replacement bumper for front of my truck.

Rear brakes and cab mount failed while under warranty, but dealer service could not find either problem and I had to repair them myself after warranty.

Faults:

The only thing that I have had to do to my Nissan hardbody is basic stuff (oil change, tune up).

General Comments:

I really love this truck I have a 1990 Nissan hard body with a 2.4l 5 speed, my first truck. then I got a 1992 Nissan hard body 2.4l auto, and I have my 1995 Nissan hard body I have never had any major problems with any of my trucks and now my 1990 has 400,000 miles on it, still kicking.

Faults:

I have made several modifications but nothing has gone wrong with the vehicle yet.

General Comments:

These trucks are unbelievably tough. I have mine on a 3" lift with 30" tires and you can hardly tell the difference in power. You can when hauling a load though. This is why I am changing the ring & pinion to a lower gear.

I would recommend this truck to anyone who needs a reliable means of transportation or a fun truck to play with.

Faults:

"Check Engine" light comes on occasionally, but it runs fine. I think this may be the oxygen sensor screaming for replacement.

General Comments:

This truck is bulletproof! I plan on driving it 200K plus.
