No follow up from dealer about the federal safety agency campaign number 02v299000. I called nissan to get more information because my ABS sensor lights tend to turn on during rainy days. Researched online and found this recall, asked to schedule my truck for servicing with no results, not even a call back.

Tl*the contact owns a 2002 nissan frontier. The failurewas related to recall #02v299000 regarding rear axle. The recall states that: on certain pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles, water may enter the rear axle housing due to inadequate sealing of the anti lock braking system (ABS) sensor. This could result in corrosion and eventual failure of the wheel bearing. If this occurred the wheel assembly could separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. He stated that one of the seals was blown and it now has water in it. He called nissan, and they said that therewas nothing that they could do about it, that his vehicle was not affected by the recall. He also took the vehicle to a local foreign dealer and they told him that the problemwas a definite issue relating to the recall, and that he would not recommend that he drive anywhere because it could cause the problem to worsen. He stated that when he drove the car the wheels became to rotate, and when he went to pull the cap off there was a milky substance, which indicated that there was water in the axle.

The vehicle's ABS light always comes on, and the A/C doesn't blow out cool air/per invoice-when driving at freeway speed, the A/C will stop blowing. Scc

While traveling on the highway without prior warning. The ABS braking light will appear on the dashboard. And will stay on until the vehicle is turn off. Please provide additional information dealer is aware of the problem. Ts

Dealer is denying responsibility for the problems I am having. I brought the truck 4 times for ABS, 3 for A/C not working & engine light remains on. I just finished arbitration and bbb auto line decided that ABS is not a safety issue despite the fact that the nissan manual shows the importance of it in braking. I think the arbitrator is not fair and influence directly by the dealership. *jb ***dimssii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis***770777
