I was never notified of the recall from nissan. I discovered the recall on my own. I took my truck to the dealer and was told that my VIN number was not included in the recall, which was only a number off. I contact nissan and after many attempts with no return call and being told one time that I would be granted financial assistance to fix the tail light harness and after being directed to several nissan specialist I was told that nissan would not cover my problem being the tail light harness, exactly that of their recall, and that of a safety issue.

I have a 1995 nissan pickup that I just purchased from my sister-in-law, the original owner. It has chonic problems with the brake lights not working. The metal light socket barrel will separate from the plastic socket that holds the lamp in the lens assembly. My nephew who drove the truck on numerous occasions had to reinsert them in order so they would work. This problem I learned was common with this nissan pickup had resulted in a safety recall (#98v‑234) campaign by nissan. However I was informed that my pickup did not qualify for this recall due to the VIN number not being within the applicable range. Even so my truck has this problem and I feel it should be repaired. The recall should not be limited to certain VIN numbers if there are other vehicles exibiting this problem. If nisan will not fix it they could at least provide me with the parts to do it myself.
