2007 Nissan Xterra engine problems

ENGINE

Oil is getting into the radiator and causing a gray gunk build up in radiator and possibly the engine. I have had the car less than a 1 1/2 years And I've already had to have the same issue fixed 3 × first time. The heater hose blew out caused an air bubble in the radiator which caused us to have to burp the radiator Which is when we found it the first time had sent it to the mechanic. Had it flushed, had it fixed. it was fine or so we thought until about a month ago. Car overheats radiator fluid spews out everywhere. Fix the hose, add radiator fluid and start. The burping process again and out comes the gray gunk. Sent it back to mechanic had it flush had gaskets to the transmission cooler and Oil cooler fixed. Mechanic cannot find how it's getting into radiator. Break pads wear prematurely due to calipers constantly sticking. Rust is everywhere on frame, suspension, shocks undercarriage and body. Vdc/slip light will come on while driving causing the car to stall at any speed. Fixed those sensors 2 times since I bought the car in December 2023 from a used car lot. State I I've in has no laws to protect people buying from used car lots but they do for new cars even though new cars come with warranties. Should be the other way around protect the people who can't afford the 30000 dollar cars. There's a reason we go to used car lots. Paid 4500 after taxes and registration and have put almost 5000 into it. Nissan is aware of the problem just not enough to deem a recall.

The vehicle was driving just fine, then about a month later the heat gauge started to fluctuate, i replaced the radiator caps, thermostat...it ran good for another month, started to overheat....i made sure water was in radiator and overflow...about a month went by the gauge started to fluctuate again, i had it towed to sayre auto parts in sayre, al to have a water pump installed and the mechanic told me their is now there is water in my oil, meaning a cracked head gasket...the vehicle never got over the 3/4 mark on gauge and this is the 2nd vehicle ive purchased that the same thing has happened to.

IN MARCH 2019 THE TRANSMISSION STARTED GETTING SLUGGISH WHILE DROPPING MY DAUGHTER AT SCHOOL ONE DAY. EVENTUALLY IT WOULD NOT SWITCH GEARS AS I PULLED IN MY DRIVEWAY FROM MY 1.5 MILE TRIP TO/FROM THE SCHOOL. EVENTUALLY IT WOULDN'T EVEN START IN MY DRIVEWAY EVEN WITH GOOD BATTERY. REPLACED A FUSE FOR THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE AND WAS ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE BUT IT BLEW THE FUSE. HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO OUR MECHANIC AND HE DISCOVERED DISCOVERED THAT THE COOLANT MIXED WITH TRANSMISSION FLUID AND NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE EVERYTHING INVOLVED. ALSO, THE MECHANISM THAT OPENS THE TAILGATE/TRUNK DOOR/LIFTGATE WILL NOT STAY OPEN, ESPECIALLY IN COLDER WEATHER. IT HAS HIT SEVERAL PEOPLE IN THE HEAD AND IS A DEFINITE HAZARD.

I PURCHASED MY FIRST VEHICLE IN JANUARY 2016 AT KIA DEPOT OF SANTA ANA (NOW KIA OF ORANGE).. AND I FEEL IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. ONE MONTH AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, I NOTICED BATTERY CORROSION. ABOUT A WEEK LATER I WAS DRIVING AND THERE WAS A LOUD THUD THAT FORCED ME OFF THE ROAD ON A BUSY STREET AND I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK. TURNS OUT THE EMERGENCY BREAK WAS COMPLETED RUSTED AND CRUMBLED AWAY FROM THE CAR - THIS WAS NOT THE ONLY THING THAT WAS RUSTED I DISCOVERED. THE ENTIRE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE CAR IS TOTALLY COVERED AND BEING EATEN ALIVE BY RUST - THIS CAR WAS SOLD TO ME, BY KIA, AS A "AS IS" CAR - HOWEVER, I REFUSE TO LET THEM HID BEHIND THAT. SINCE I HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR, WHICH WAS SOLD TO ME FOR A TOTAL OF $12,592.00,MONTHLY PAYMENTS OF $285.85- I FOUND OUT THAT IT WAS ACTUALLY SITTING IN NEW YORK AROUND THE TIME OF HURRICANE KATRINA - LEGALLY IF ITS FROM A DIFFERENT STATE, THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO DISCLOSE THAT TO ME & THEY DIDN'T. SO FAR I'VE HAD TO GET A NEW BATTERY, NEW BRAKES, EMERGENCY BRAKE IS GONE, NEW MUFFLER, NEW SWAY BAR, AC RECHARGED, AND JUST RECENTLY A PIECE OF THE LEAF SPRING UNDER THE TIRE COMPLETELY SNAPPED OFF AND BROKE IN HALF WHILE DRIVING - THESE GUYS SOLD ME A RUSTY NIGHTMARE AND THEY HAVE SINCE CLOSED UP SHOP. ALSO THE SALESMAN PADDED MY LOAN APPLICATION AND I JUST RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT IS TOTALLY ILLEGAL - I DO NOT WANT TO WAIT UNTIL ANOTHER PIECE OF THIS THING FALLS APART ON ME AGAIN, I HAD MY 7 YEAR OLD NIECE IN THE CAR WITH ME THE FIRST TIME WHEN THE EMERGENCY BRAKE CRUMBLED. I HAVE LEFT REVIEWS AND COMPLAINTS - MY NEXT STEP IS A ATTORNEY. HERE IS A REPORT I FILED ON RIPOFF REPORT -HTTP://WWW.RIPOFFREPORT.COM/REPORTS/KIA-DEPOT-OF-SANTA-ANA/SANTA-ANA-CALIFORNIA-92701/KIA-DEPOT-OF-SANTA-ANA-SOLD-ME-A-RUSTED-OUT-CAR-THAT-WAS-IN-HURRICANE-SANDY-SANTA-ANA-CA-1312221

TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE CAUSED BY A CRACKED RADIATOR THAT ALLOWED ENGINE COOLANT TO MIX WITH TRANSMISSION FLUID. COST TO FIX IS MORE THAN THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEFECTIVE RADIATOR HAS NO RECALL ON IT ALTHOUGH THE PROBLEM IS WELL KNOWN TO NISSAN.

ENGINE

NISSAN DEALERSHIP NOTIFIED ME ABOUT NEEDING TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE TIMING CHAIN SYSTEM. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, IT IS EVIDENT NISSAN KNEW ABOUT FAULTY TIMING CHAIN TENSIONERS AND GUIDES THAT IT WAS USING ON CERTAIN MODEL YEAR XTERRAS, INCLUDING 2007. IF TIMING CHAIN FAILS WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, IT CAN LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE AND A $8000+ REPAIR BILL FOR A NEW ENGINE. NISSAN KNOWING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM SENT SERVICE BULLETINS TO ITS SERVICE CENTERS BUT DID NOT INFORM CONSUMERS ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THE TIMING CHAIN SHOULD BE GOOD FOR THE LIFE OF THE ENGINE, BUT NOW MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP IS TELLING ME IT IS GOING TO COST AT LEAST $1900 TO REPLACE THE TIMING CHAIN AND ALL COMPONENTS. NISSAN KNEW THE COMPONENTS ARE FAULTY AND YET DON'T CARE ENOUGH TO INFORM CONSUMERS. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. NISSAN KNEW THAT THE TRANSMISSION COOLERS ON SAME MODEL YEAR WERE FAULTY AND DID NOT INFORM CONSUMERS. CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FORCED NISSAN TO FACE THE MUSIC, BUT CONSUMERS STILL HAD TO PAY OVER $2000 OUT OF POCKET TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION, TRANSMISSION COOLER, AND RADIATOR.

TOOK SUV TO WOODBURY NISSAN, HEARING SOUNDS WHEN DRIVING AND NO HEAT. THE RADIATOR COOLANT LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION. BOTH NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THERE WAS NEVER A RECALL OR ANY NOTICE TO ME IN THE 9 YEARS I HAVE HAD THIS FROM NEW.I FEEL NISSAN SHOULD HAVE RECALLED THIS, AND CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A DEFECT THEY KNEW ABOUT.

ANOTHER FRUSTRATED 2007 NISSAN XTERRA OWNER WHO'S RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED. THREE WEEKS AGO NOTICED SOME TRANNY SLIPPAGE WHILE DRIVING (NORMALLY 80 MILES A DAY, 5 DAYS A WEEK AND ALL ON HIGHWAYS), CHECKED FLUID, NO PROBLEM, NO LEAKS OR NOTHING, THOUGH MAYBE JUST DRAIN AND CHANGE FLUIDS. THEN 1 WEEK AGO TODAY, I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT WHEN MY TEMPERATURE GAUGE SPIKED TO HOT AND RADIATOR STARTED TO SMOKE, STARTED TO MOVE ON THE GREEN LIGHT TO PULL OVER TO SIDE OF ROAD FROM A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY AND I WAS IN THE SECOND LANE OVER, CAR STARTED TO CHUG AND BARELY MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF ROAD BEFORE IT QUIT, THEN A GRAY COLORED FLUID STARTED DRAINING OUT OF MY RADIATOR OVERFLOW ALL OVER THE GROUND. HAD TO MAKE THE CALL TO A SHOP AND THEY KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS BEFORE THEY CAME AND GOT IT. THE CAR GOT TOWED TO SHOP WHERE THEY QUOTED ME $5590 FOR TOWING, NEW RADIATOR AND REBUILT TRANNY. WTF'.

ENGINE

MY VEHICLE WAS DRIVING PERFECTLY WITHOUT ANY ISSUES AT ALL UNTIL ONE DAY ON THE WAY HOME I STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN NEAR MY HOME. THEN AS I STARTED TO PROCEED DOWN THE CITY STREET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND 4WD LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE DASH AND THE VEHICLE WOULD BARELY MOVE. I JUST BARELY GOT IT INTO THE DRIVEWAY OF MY HOME. AFTER I TURNED IT OFF I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE IT WOULD NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO TURN OVER. I CHECKED ONLINE TO SEE WHAT WOULD CAUSE THESE SYMPTOMS TO FIND THAT HUNDREDS UPON THOUSANDS OF OTHER NISSAN OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME HAPPEN TO THEM. IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE OF CROSS CONTAMINATION OF RADIATOR FLUID AND TRANSMISSION FLUID DUE TO A FAULTY DESIGN IN THE RADIATOR. I HAD A MECHANIC CHECK MY ENGINE AS WELL AND HE CONFIRMED THAT THE GREY SLUDGE IN THE RADIATOR AND GRIT IN MY TRANSMISSION FLUID FIT THE SYMPTOMS OF THIS ISSUE. NOW I AM BEING TOLD I HAVE TO PAY OVER $5000.00 TO HAVE REPAIRS DONE BECAUSE OF A DESIGN FLAW THAT NISSAN REFUSES TO TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR. I AM LUCKY THAT THIS FAILURE HAPPENED IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD VERSUS THE INTERSTATE OR IT COULD HAVE NOT ONLY LEFT ME WITH FIGURING OUT HOW TO COME UP WITH $5000.00 BUT HOW TO PAY FOR HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR REPAIR BILLS TO OTHER CARS I MIGHT HAVE CAUSED TO WRECK DO TO THIS CATASTROPHIC TRANSMISSION FAILURE.

LAST YEAR WHILE DRIVING MY CAR I BEGIN TO NOTICE A "JERKING" MOTION. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT I WOULD NEED A FLUSH AND THAT THIS WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM. FAST FORWARD ROUGHLY A MONTH LATER AND MY CAR COMPLETELY GAVE OUT WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. NO WARNING JUST STOPPED DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I HAD THE CAR TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC AND SAID THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS "GONE" BECAUSE THE COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO THE TRANSMISSION. I SIMPLY CAN NOT AFFORD TO GET THE REPAIRS DONE BEING A SINGLE MOTHER. I HAVE CALLED NISSAN AND FILED A COMPLAINT AND WAS TOLD THAT BECAUSE MY CAR WAS SLIGHTLY OVER 100,00 MILES THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME. I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS IS S DEFECT IN THE EQUIPMENT THAT NISSAN IS SEEKING AND THE MILEAGE SHOULD NOT MATTER. THERE SHOULD BE SOME SORT OF RESOLUTION ON THE MATTER. AS IT STANDS MY CAR HAS BEEN IMMOBILE FOR THE PAST COUPLE MONTHS AND I AM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS. IT'S A SAD SITUATION AND NISSAN SHOULD BE ASHAMED, SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE.

ENGINE

I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY, WHEN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION STOPPED SHIFTING GEARS AND THE CAR DECELERATED. AFTER IT CAME TO A STOP, THE CAR WOULD NOT START AGAIN. AFTER TALKING TO MECHANICS, IT APPEARS THAT A DEFECT IN THE RADIATOR CAUSED THE RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION FLUID TO INTERMIX, WRECKING BOTH THE RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION.

I OWN A 2007 NISSAN XTERRA WITH 116643 MILES AND WAS JUST TOLD BY THE NISSAN DEALER THAT MY COOLANT IS LEAKING COOLANT FLUIDS INTO MY TRANSMISSION. UPON RESEARCH I DISCOVERED THAT NISSAN SETTLED A CLASS ACTION SUIT BUT THE OWNER IS STILL LIABLE FOR REPAIRS EVEN THOUGH THE RADIATOR WAS DEFECTIVE. THIS LEAKAGE WILL EVENTUALLY DESTROY MY TRANSMISSION.
