2001 Nissan Frontier EX review from North America
"Junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
AC compressor bearings shot at 39K
Alternator X 2 at 38k and 59K
Rear spring broken (No load ever in truck)
Shock mount broken
Front rotors pitted beyond use
Windshield washer pump
Tailgate latch broke at 400 miles
Burns oil like crazy
Been in the shop most of its life.
General comments?
Radio still works. I use the truck to commute to work 68 miles one and all the miles on this truck are highway miles. 78 miles per hr 3100 RPM. Synthetic oil every 5000 miles.
