Exhaust manifold is there a recall on this because I took it to midas and he said that he has being these van with this problem where the bolts broken into the manifold exhaust. I want do this suppose to happen and do the company no of this. So can you tell me if there are a recall on these vans. If so, can you let me know.
The vehicle was hard starting, engine/transmission surge, at low speeds and up hill. The thermostat stuck and several other malfunctions. *bf the engine suddenly shut down without warning. The over heated engine had serious burning inside. There were no indicator lights on to see the engine temperature gauge at peak heat. The consumer could not find the problem, had no steam, no check engine, just a fear of engine melt down about to recur.
The dealer broke the crankshaft when removing the main pulley bolt. Dealer/nissan refused to provide financial help on repairs. *bf *tc the consumer did some research and discovered numerous broken crankshafts. The manufacturer determined the cause to be initial tensile force set on the engine accessory belts during assembly, therefore a technical service bulletin was issued acknowledging the problem.
Bolt holding lower pulley to crankshaft sheared off. Possible crank shaft failure.
Exhaust manifold replacement, bolts and studs.
Vehicle engine stalled without warning.*mr engine was replaced and stalled again from city speed to highway speed. The check engine light illuminated. The oxygen sensor was replaced and the light continued to illuminate. After 2.5 hours of electrical testing, nothing was found. The existing stalling is repaired by shutting the A/C off to provide the engine with power. The prevention is to use higher octane gas, omit overdrive and avoid using the A/C. Nissan asked that the consumers wait for the vehicle to break so they could find the cause. The engine itself broke at 59k miles. There was a recall on the crankshaft and camshaft system. But the 1994 models the sensor is in the distributor.
The engine warning light came on/off. Dealer replaced one of the sensors. However, the light still came on.
I would like to add my complaint to the long list you already have about the broken bolts on the front and rear manifolds. I had three broken studs that needed re-drilling and one bolt that only needed replacement. The manifolds were warped and had to be removed and planed. Total cost was $756.16. The problem I was having was a loud rattle noise. When I asked the mechanic about not fixing the problem I was told it was a potential fire hazard. There appears to be a defect in this engine model. I understand it is also prevalent in the pathfinder and other nissan models. When I called my nissan dealership they said there was no recall on this problem. Nissan said they has issued a technical bulletin on this issue and for customer service relations they were fixing 1994 pathfinders with this problem if they had 100,000 miles or less.
While driving about 55 MPH on the highway and without prior warning coolant was leaking from underneath the vehicle, and vehicle shut down .
