The Fight Is On With Nissan!!!!!

[Aussie Frontier]

Well I know how you feel. Looks like I have blown the LSD outa my rear diff(only got rear in a 4x2 lol).
I think another of the Aussies blew his front diff so its looking like a somewhat wide based problem

STERLING MCCALL, ITS NOT THEM THAT THE PROBLEM BUT A BUNCH OF WARRANTY REPS IN FROM THE FACTORY, THAT GOT REAL INTERESTED IN WHAT MY TRUCK WAS IN FOR LOOKING AT IT. THEY DID THE TRADITIONAL OH BY LOOKING AT YOUR TRUCK YOU ABUSE IT LABEL WHICH IS WHAT THE MAGNUSON-MOSS WARRANTY ACT IS IN PLACE FOR. TO PROTECT CONSUMERS FROM FACTORIES OR DEALERS GOING YOU MODIFIED AND YOURE SOL. IVE DONE THIS BEFORE, JUST HAVE TO BE NICE AND COME LOADED FOR BEAR. I ALREADY HAVE PICS(SEE PREVIOUS POST) OF PRESS RELEASES AND ACTICLE, ADS FROM NISSAN AND THEY SHOW THE FRONTIER DOING ALL KINDS OF OFF ROAD/CRAWLER STUFF. SO TELL ME NISSAN "ARE YOU SAYING, THE TRUCK IS INCAPABLE OF DOING THE THINGS YOU SHOW IN YOUR AD CAMPAINS WITHOUT DAMAGE?"

What pissed me off about them was when i was not getting anywhere with the SM, I tried to call the GM of the dealership, the front desk sent me to the SM each time, they never would let me talk to the GM. I did however find Mr. S. Mcalls info on the web and his current addy from county tax records and sent him a letter....

I think next time I need service, I'm gonna try the dealer in Richmond/Rosenburg down 59.

Good luck Brutal. I hope everything turns out OK in the end. These problems (although I have had none, and I wheel A LOT), are really starting to get me to question my decision to buy this truck. A decent offroading rig and comfortable daily driver was why I went Nissan. If I can't be reasonably sure this truck will get me back from a trail (especially here where there aren't a whole lot of people you encounter on the trails) maybe it's time to look at other truck options.

SEE THATS EXACTLY WHAT I AM PO'D ABOUT, ALOT OF YALL WHEEL WITHOUT PROBLEMS AND MINE BREAKS, AND THEY GAVE ME THIS CRAP ABOUT ABUSE JUST FROM MY TRUCKS LOOK. EVERYTHING I HAVE DONE, WINCH, SKIDS, TOOL BOXES ON ROOF ETC HAS BEEN IN THE INTEREST OF CAMPING AND OFFROADING WITHOUT PROBLEMS, NOT IN TEARING UP WHEELING. BUT I GUESS THEY THINK IF IT WALKS LIKE A DUCK IT MUST BE A....
