2000 Nissan Frontier EX review from North America
"Truck has not failed me yet so I would buy again"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Interior cab rattle after 20000km..
General comments?
Only 3 real problems with the truck are:
1. Off road decal... beware if you go into water over the differentials, they will take in water. The fix for this problem is cheap, run a hose off the vents to a higher place, if not you will be replacing a differential, like I had to.
2. The clutch in this vehicle is very grabby when the vehicle is cold, it gets a bit better when the transmission is warm... not a lot though.
3. Poor fuel mileage for a V6.
