In 2017 at 60,062 miles the tail pipe corroded fell off. A repair was made at the eau claire nissan dealership were the cut and clamped it back together.

The entire dash has to be removed to accomplish the repair. The second issue is the (Bcm) body control module. This module controls all the accessory electronics inside and outside the vehicle (Tpms, door locks, horns, lights, turn signals, windows, trailer hitch etc.) nissan knows this is…

The truck will not shift from park. You have to stick something down into the column to unlock it. Breaks and everything else work fine it's something in the steering column that is faulty and will cost close to 1000 to replace.
