Pickup a problem? 3:01pm on 28 Oct 2008 Our Nissan Navara D22 blew up in April 2007, mileage 42000. We were in the outside lane of M74, thank goodness it was a quiet Sunday afternoon otherwise the consequences could have been fatal. Loud knocking noise followed by total engine failure 20 seconds later. When the truck was returned to dealership for repair, total denial of ANY PROBLEMS with this vehicle. As service history was incomplete, no assistance meant a repair expense of £7,000. VOSA did investigate however, Nissan would not admit any liability and said the that noise would have given us due warning to get to safety. 20 seconds notice on a busy motorway in heavy traffic would have caused catastrophe/fatalities. VOSA also said in their reply to us 28/08/07 that there was insufficient evidence to warrant action! Angry was not the word, I was a trauma theatre nurse and saw the results of car accidents as did my husband when in
the London Fire Brigade based at an RTA station.
