1999 Nissan FRONTIER Structure Frame And Members Problems, Complaints and Defects

 Issue ID170227
 Internal NHTSA #709985
 ManufacurerNISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC.
 BrandNISSAN
 ModelFRONTIER
 Model Year1999
 File date01/03/98
 ComponentSTRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
Product type codeVEHICLE
 Description of the problemThe frame was mis-engineered in mass, orientation and design to accomodate the chassis that would be riding on top of it, so much so that the driver feels a constant shuddering, a nearly constant steering wheel chatter, and poor dampening on even smooth or slightly bumpy roads. The vehicle also experiences a feeling of road weariness and sloppyness in turns. I have consulted with other owners and they (and a nissan engineer) say it's confirmed that the vibration is emenating from the back where the especially poor design exists and is channeled/amplified along the way up to the front of the vehicle.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
