I would like to add my complaint to the long list you already have about the broken bolts on the front and rear manifolds. I had three broken studs that needed re-drilling and one bolt that only needed replacement. The manifolds were warped and had to be removed and planed. Total cost was $756.16. The problem I was having was a loud rattle noise. When I asked the mechanic about not fixing the problem I was told it was a potential fire hazard. There appears to be a defect in this engine model. I understand it...

This is a problem with this manifold. It cracks causing the bolts to break. Now have put over $3,000. Into fixing this problem with 2 services.

Steering assembly shifter bolts had to be replaced. The bolts were missing. I also have another complaint in regarding this same vehicle on file with you. The other complaint deals with the transmission, radiatior and manifold.*Ak
Manifold bolts keep melting and breaking. The bolts are popping as fast as the repair person can put them in. The manifold bolts cost about $80 each. United nissan says that the cost to fix one is about $700 if they do not encounter any additional problems. In 1997, we payed a dealership in gulfport mississippi over a @1000 to put in a transmission because metal parts were in our transmission and radiator. They could not determine where the metal was coming from, but it tore up the transmission. I wrote and called nissan and they have a copy of my request for help but no help was provided.
Engine stumbled, and then quit while at idle. Repair shop reports broken crankshaft (snout)*ak
Nissan dealer told us this was not a common problem and they had not seen it before. (That was a lie) broken stud bolts where manifold connects to engine. 5 Stud bolts replaced 10/01 for $600. Told it would happen again by independent mechanic. Inferior bolts used. Any other breakage would require removal of engine to reach the rest of bolts. $1000 For repair. Currently has broken bolts and we're not ready to make the repair again.
