The front driver window will not go up. The back passenger window is also breaking down. I've heard there is an issue with nissan's windows. Is there a recall for 2007?

What owners say
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 nissan xterra. The contact stated that the fuel gauge and the window motors malfunctioned. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the fuel sensor was defective and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but did not offer any assistance since the vehicle had surpassed the specified mileage. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage and current mileage was unknown.
I opened case # [xxx] with nissan regarding the failure of all four window regulators in the nissan xterra I purchased from nissan of bourne (ma) in 2000 on martha's vineyard. That is where the vehicle is garaged and used and only has 67k miles on it. The windows have been acting up for quite some time (many years) now and the vehicle is primarily used only in the summer. There was a window regulator warranty extension (pu307) issued on this vehicle and there are numerous online complaints about the problem. Nissan consumer affairs has rejected the claim since it is beyond the warranty extension period even though I was never notified of the problem since it only applied to "warm weather" states. I'd like to escalate this claim to encourage nissan to pick up the cost of parts as this is a safety issue should the window get stuck in the up or down position. There are numerous online complaints about this problem. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
All of the window regulators on my 2002 nissan xterra do not work,causing the windows to never be used for fear of them being stuck in the down position. I have had to repair the drivers side once already to the tune of $200. This apparently a known problem by nissan,and the best they would do is to extend the warranty to 60k miles or 5 years from purchase. Most people I've talked to were already past this point,so there is nothing that nissan will do for them...me included. I could replace the other 3 windows but at $200 ea and with it being a known issue why should I be stuck with this.
Multiple complaints: at approx 55k miles, engine would rev out before shifting gears, at approx. 72k miles started vibration when at steady speed (approx 45 MPH), so purchased new tires. At approx. 76k miles temperature gauge would fluctuate and vibration and gear slam increased. At approx. 79k miles blower stopped working and temperature gauge would go up and down. At 80,532 mi. Had radiator replaced and coolant flushed and two transmission flushes done, as coolant and transmission fluids mixed due to radiator leaking. Transmission continued vibration and began slamming again 3 mos. Later. 6 mos. Later engine overheated , had towed. Engine was bad due to overheating from radiator assembly fault nissan describes. Rebuilt engine, new timing chain and timing control valve, and new radiator. Still cannot drive vehicle- severe transmission slamming gears, vehicle stalls when you take foot off gas, oil pressure gauge goes to bottom when foot off gas and up when you depress. Since, nissan has extended warranty to 80k for radiator assembly can crack and internal leakage of coolant mixes with transmission fluids. I am not covered they say, but if I had been notified of this 2 years ago I would have been. Their letter specifically states that it can occur at "higher mileages". I want nissan to reimburse me costs incurred and fix my transmission. I have been without a vehicle on and off for 8 mos. Of the past two years, and do not think this vehicle will ever run properly due to their negligence to notify owners of the potential problem. I've seen hundreds of complaints. Also have had engine light go on and off for last 2 years- due to fuel sending unit problem, nissan has extended warranty for this to 72k. I now have 94k - these issues need to be recalls and owners reimbursed- please investigate warranty extension issue! Also had squeaks, battery issue, no start even w/new battery, cleared electronics/radio blown, cds don't eject, driver window won't go up unless pulled.
Window regulators all have been malfunctioning on my 2001 nissan xterra.
First the driver side window stopped working. Sounds like breaking glass when it is rolled down. Will only roll down 1 -2 inches and will not roll back up. The left rear window will roll down but will not roll back up. The right rear window will occasionally roll down but will not roll back up. The front passenger window works for now.
(1) my driver window began to grind when I used it. Shortly after it would not work at all. (2) currently, 3 of 4 of my window regulators do not work properly. I started to look on the net to see if others are having this problem and that is how I found this web site. Nissan never sent me anything on this issue even though they had a voluntary service campaign (pu306 & pu307). They don't consider it a danger, but I think that in the middle of a michigan winter when my windows won't go up and you have a baby in the back seat dangerous. After multiple phone calls to nissan they want me to take it into to the dealer and pay $100 for them to diagnose the problem. I don't have $100 to gamble with knowing that it may lead to not reimbursement. I am the only owner of this vehicle and nissan has always had my contact info, yet they never sent me any notice of this expired campaign.
I have a 2001 nissan xterra that I bought in 2002 while the windows were still working. Within two months of my purchase the two rear windows stopped working. It was not but a couple of weeks until the passenger window completely broke and slid down into my door. The drivers side goes down very slowly making a grinding noise and has to be manually rolled up. The warranty is up and it will cost me $1800 to get it fixed. I will not spend that kind of money on a poorly manufactured car after the fact that they will not recall it. I will never buy another nissan again.
Both rear window regulators failed in the consumer's 2001 nissan xterra. *ts the blower motor only blows on high. The dealer found that the blower motor resistor shorted out. The check engine light illuminated while driving. The dealer diagnosed that the thermostat had to be replaced.
