| Water gets in the seal of the upper rear tail light/cargo light. the water leaks through damaging the headliner and carpet. also blew my fuse and none of the lights work in it, as well as blowing out the fuse every time i replace it. there is still no updated version or recall for it all you can do is get a new one and hope it lasts a little longer. *tr | |||

| While having minor cosmetic repairs done, our [reputable] body shop repairman pointed out that the front radiator support frame is completely rusted through. everything else on this truck is solid. i am meticulous about it. there is obviously some sort of defect on this area for it to be 90% deteriorated! the slightest touch causes it to crumble...in the past, even toyota has stood behind their vehicles with corrosion issues...i would certainly hope nissan could look into this the same way...its a real shame that i can only see another year maybe before my radiator falls out and causes something much worse... *tr | |||
