2000 Nissan Frontier review from North America
"Okay choice for a one vehicle family"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission 1st gear and synchro broke from a hard acceleration.
Tailgate latch broke twice.
Clutch pedal rod bent.
Body dents easily, many little dings.
General comments?
Bad fuel economy, this despite the overly lightweight components in body and chassis. Crew cab weighs in like a car. Lightweight truck boils down to flimsy.
