At 60000 miles had to replace the passenger wheel bearing and ABS sensor in the vehicle. At 90000 miles a knocking sound began to come from the engine while the vehicle was stopped or in park. Mechanic advised this was due to the timing chain, which is a problem due to the plastic parts that nissan uses to hold the tension on the chain. This is a known problem with this model vehicle as numerous complainants have been filed. Concerned that nissan knew it had a bad component and has not fixed the problem that exist. Also, now the driver side wheel bearing is bad and needs to be replaced. Started to have problems with the brakes around 30000. Fixed the brakes with oe parts, and then began to have problems with the rotors. Technician advised these problems came from the rotors getting hot. Had the rotors turned which did not work. Now I am going to have to replace the rotors on the front of the vehicle. Window motor also has went bad in the vehicle.

Windows will not stay up. They go down but when rolled up come back down half way. Drivers side window no longer works at all now. Van is out of warranty so dealership wants to charge over $400 to repair.

The passenger's side automatic window started making a grinding noise, slowed and eventually stopped working. I had to pull the window up while working the button. The same day the driver's side window was making the same sounds and also failed. I took off the inside of the passenger's door, I noticed that a plastic piece holding a metal cable on the window regulator had broken in half. When I checked the driver's door I saw it had broken in the same spot. I was lucky enough to catch the problem before both motors burn out. The failure caused the cable to tangle around the regulator's wheel assembly, it kinked and frayed the cable. I went to the dealership and purchased both assemblies at a very steep price. This is obviously a design flaw and should also be considered a safety recall for the manufacturer.

The driver's side automatic window slowed and eventually stopped working. Because of the failure we had to leave our vehicle in a public parking lot at one point with the window fully open. This is a safety issue and invites theft among other things. One month later the passenger's side window was making the same sounds and also failed. When I took off the inside of both doors, the exact same failure had occurred. A plastic piece holding a metal cable on the window regulator had broken in half in the same spot on both windows. The driver's side failure was so bad that it also caused the window's motor to burn out. I caught the passenger's side window's symptoms in time before it had a chance to destroy that motor. The failure on that side caused the cable to tangle around the regulator's wheel assembly. This is obviously a design flaw and should also be considered a safety recall for the manufacturer.

Dt: caller said both front axles broke. Car made a noise and when she took it in to have it looked at the dealer said that the right one rusted and the left one broke. Both windows will not go up or down. The dealer repaired the windows 4 times. A mechanic was fixing the axles. The manufacturer has been contacted, and caller is waiting for them to call her back. The date was when the windows started going bad. The axle problem started on july 6, 2005.

Driver and passenger windows will not stop once consumer raises them. Dealer found no defects, however the mechanic's finger was caught.

I bought the vehicle in new march 2001. That november the drivers window stopped moving. I had to have my drivers window regulator replaced, it was done under warranty. A little more than a year later the passenger regulator needed replaced. In the fall of 2003 the drivers window stopped moving again and two months later the passenger window stopped. I have searched junk yards for one but they don't have that new of a vehicle. And when I do find one the regulator is already broke. I have since then replaced the passanger window but I still can't find a drivers side. The warranty on the replacement parts was only one year. My vehicle now is 3 years old and out of its warranty. I sent nissan a certified letter and they declined to help. I can buy a new part but afraid it will go bad too.

I own an sl purchased in oct 2003. There has been one continual problem and three new problems recently. First the new problems: the past 2 weeks temps have been in single digits and there has been no snow or rain. I have had to keep car in driveway. During these past weeks I've experienced three problems, one of which infuriated me. First two items - passenger window will not open and car does not 'beep' when I lock from remote (which makes me have to turn back and double check the doors only to find it has indeed locked)- are annoying and I attributed them to the temperature. The third problem occurred yesterday: passenger side automatic sliding door would not close once opened. It would beep, slide almost closed, then open right up again. I could not force it to remain closed. This happened in a grocery store parking lot, temperature was -1 degrees, car had a couple hundred dollars worth of purchases inside, and I had my very young child with me. After checking manual and speaking with people at the nissan dealership (neither of which were helpful, to be honest) I tried cleaning the tracks around door. There was no ice, dirt, sand, etc. And still the door would not close. I was told by the dealership that there was no manual override which would have allowed me to close the door. Later in the day after the car had been in the sun a few hours, my husband was able to get the door closed enough to grab and lock it. This door issue is unacceptable. We have three young children and purposely bought this car for it's reliability and safety. There was nothing reliable nor safe about what happened to us yesterday. Another problem: a creaking, squeaky noise comes from the back of the van while driving. Sounds like an old schoolbus. Dealership has no idea of cause. Were told to bring van in for service.
