Owner Letter

Dear Nissan Pathfinder Owner:

Subject:
WARRANTY EXTENSION

Nissan is dedicated to providing vehicles of outstanding value and quality. To meet these goals we closely monitor in-use vehicles for long term durability performance. In this way, opportunities for improvement are quickly identified before Nissan owners are inconvenienced.

It has come to our attention that some owners of 1996 - 1998 Pathfinders may be experiencing a minor noise involving the exhaust manifold, and/or corrosion/ rattles involving the main muffler and post muffler assembly. These conditions have no effect on performance or driveability, and you may continue to drive the vehicle if either should occur.

Nevertheless, Nissan is committed to maintaining your full confidence in our products. To demonstrate this, we are extending the Nissan New Vehicle Limited Warranty coverage for repair of the exhaust manifold and/or the main muffler and the post muffler assembly. Specifically, should you experience either a manifold noise, and/or corrosion/rattle, involving the main muffler or post muffler assembly, Nissan will repair these conditions without cost to you throughout the extended warranty coverage period.

The extended warranty coverage for the exhaust manifold is now 100 months/100,000 miles, whichever comes first; and for the main muffler and the post muffler assembly 60 months/ 60,000 miles, whichever comes first. Each extension date is from the original in-service date.

If you should experience either of these conditions and want either of them corrected, you should schedule an appointment with your servicing Nissan retailer at your convenience and your retailer will verify the condition following procedures provided by Nissan. Because the exhaust manifold required for this repair is not normally kept in retailer inventory, your patience and understanding will be very much appreciated should parts not be immediately available. Again, however, if your Pathfinder experiences either of these conditions, you may continue to drive your vehicle until your servicing Nissan retailer receives the parts.

Thank you for your purchase of your Nissan Pathfinder. We hope this expression of our commitment to your satisfaction will provide you with added confidence in your Pathfinder and the company that stands behind it.

If you have any questions, please contact your servicing Nissan retailer, or call us at 1-800-NISSAN1 (1-800-647-7261). If you reside in Hawaii, please call 1-(808) 836-0888.
