My 2001 Maxima AE exhibits some symptoms of a couple of TSBs put out by Nissan.

TSBs from AllData
00-088A MAY 02 Brakes - Vibration/Judder
01-054 AUG 01 Window Glass (Front Door) - Squeak/Squeal Noise
00-039A DEC 00 A/T - 1st to 2nd & 2rd to 3rd Gear Slippage (not so sure about this one, it's done it a few times but I tested it out this morning and all worked fine)

Since I've got 51K on the car I think the only thing that might be covered under warranty is the tranny work. The brakes, I assume, would have to be fixed (the TSB said it was due to uneven rotors) and the window just ****es me off (though I haven't been able to find the actual TSB to read).

A couple of questions then:
1. Anyone know of any decent Nissan dealers or Specialists in the Orlando, FL area?
2. Anyone know how much it costs to turn-out the rotors as opposed to replacing them?
3. I also don't know if the car has been taken in yet for this recall work. Is there anyway I can find out without visiting a dealer?

02-064 JUN 02 Recall - Transverse Link Replacement


Thanks for any help.

 

hmmmm.....Maybe I can check recall info on Carfax? I have a dealer friend who can check that out for me.

 

1. cant help on that.
2. my dealer charges around 90 to turn rotors when you can purchase new brembo blanks for the same cost. local shops will turn them for cheaper but cutting them only increases the chance they will warp again since they are even thinner with the same heat conditions.
3. you can call 1-800-nissan and give them your VIN. they should be able to tell if the tranverse link has been done but the tsb work is typically covered under 3yr/36k warranty.
