I just bought a 95 Pathfinder SE and it is being shipped to me. I owned the same vehicle in the mid 90s. It was Recalled then for a valve tap issue. I brought it in and they replaced the upper half of the engine.
I looked long and hard online for info related to this and this is what I found:
The Silent Nissan Recall
In the spring of 1995 Nissan Motor Corporation made a change in their VG3E 6 cylinder engines. By March 1996 Nissan engineers discovered a defect in these engines. Their records showed that these defective engines were put into about 100,000 vehicles, 38,422 of which were 1995-1996 Pathfinders the remainder were in Quests and trucks.
1995-96 Pathfinders with VIN numbers ending in ...075996 through ...114418 were affected.
My Vin falls within this group (ugh) and I dont know if it was brought in for the service. Does anyone have any experience with this and will Nissan even entertain the idea of servicing it (no charge) now??
