| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My 2005 nissan pathfinder le has a loud squeak/vibration coming from the underbody. dealer (ramsey nissan - ramsey, nj) has confirmed that the source of the loud squeak/vibration is due to the change in design for the "fuel pump spring assembly". apparently, the 2004 pathfinder had a 2 spring design which was changed to a 1 spring design in 2005. once the fuel tank becomes pressurized (car running for approximately 10 minutes), a loud, constant, and obtrusive squeak/vibration comes from underneath the car. to date, nissan does not have a fix for this which is unacceptable since the vibration is coming from a critically sensitive area such as the fuel tank. this is an expensive vehicle that should not sound and feel like it is 10 years old. it is absolutely unacceptable that nissan does not have a fix for this. *nm |
