The vent for the rear differential clogged and a back up of pressure pushed the seals on the axle causing extensive damage to the axle and brakes. I do not drive off road or submerge the drive train.
2011 Nissan Frontier brakes complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 13 of 13, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Brake rotors have developed severe rust along brake pad surface. Not superficial rust. The surface is "pitted" with rust. Vehicle has 17000 miles. All 4 rotors require "turning" or replacement way too early. This confirmed by two reliable mechanics.
While backing up from park position front brakes make a low groan or rubbiing sound like the calipers are not releasing properly. Have had it in the dealer twice, once they put molycote grease on the pads, then they replaced the pads and turned rotors all done with less than 5,000 miles,still has the problem. Also seems like once you brake and come to complete stop and start again takes alot of power to get going like there is a drag on the front end.also rotors a very hot.
