      I've been driving since 1967 and likewise, always use my parking brake, never had any transmission problems, and been wearing my seat belt all that time. Parking brake cables stretch and manual parking brakes have adjustability designed into them somewhere in the system. I'm not sure electric parking brakes do though.

    Too bad for Nissan on this, but I still love my brand new Pro-4X. I always set my parking break each and every single time I park. I've done this with all of my vehicles and never had a problem where the cables needed to be replaced. They would need adjustments every now and again, but never full replacements. I typically drive my vehicles until they're around 400,000 km's or so.
    I think the trick is to not STAND on your parking brake pedal with all of your weight. There is a sweet spot where you put your p-brake on tight enough that your truck doesn't roll away when parked on a hill, but not so tight that you're damaging your cables over time.
    Thanks for the video!!

  • @PennsylvaniaDualSport
    @PennsylvaniaDualSport 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I’ve used the emergency brake for parking an automatic or manual transmission for 30 years for the simple reason of keeping tension off that pawl. I cringe when someone parks on an incline then pulls the shifter from park to drive which creates a lot friction and unnecessary wear hence the “clunk” you get from doing that.
    You should never rest the weight of any vehicle on the transmission alone. Park.. Keep foot on brake and apply emergency/parking brake.

    I use the parking brake all the time, its there for a reason. I also, recall or no recall am not trusting a small metal pin to hold a 4200lb vehicle in its place. You can cause more issues with parking brakes by not using them than with using them, especially the top hat style parking brake that the Frontier and many other pickups and suvs use. I've also never seen a parking brake cable stretch or the assembly wear out when regular brake services are done.

    According to that report you have in your hands, only .03% of the 180,000 trucks sold has this issue. That’s 54 vehicles or so. I’d be curious what other manufacturers hv done in the past with similar pawl issues? Did they replace the piece or the entire tranny? I would think it would be easier to replace the entire (rebuilt/new)tranny as opposed to tearing into the transmission, which is even more work? I don’t think most newer techs would even know how to repair a transmission. Probably easier just to replace?? 🤷‍♂️🤔 Either way, not a huge deal, but it does eventually need fixing/replacing.

    • @4-LOW

      Nope. The official documentation says absolutely nothing about numbers of affected vehicles. It says, and I quote, "Frontier vehicles produced between June 10, 2020 and June 14, 2022". There is nothing that indicates the number of vehicles with the issue, and it only shows the number of vehicles under the recall which is what I mentioned in the video.
      Hopefully we'll discover later that not all Frontiers could have the issue, but as of right now we don't know that.

    The only reason you should use your parking brake is when your on an incline. The reason for this is to take all the pressure of the pawl. The proper way to do this is with the brake on, put it in neutral apply the parking brake, release the brake when the little movement is done put in park, that will not put pressure on the pawl.

    No, use the parking brake unless on flat surface parking lot, even with auto. Not using it will cause it to seize and not work properly when needed…using it is better. Video could have been 2 min.

    As a guy who learned on manual transmission I've always set the parking brake every time on every automatic I've owned, just need to adjust the cable every 100,000 miles or so. Regardless, doesn't make this problem okay

    I used to own a 2009 Frontier with the hand brake and used it all the time, it became a habit. I now own a 2022 SV and hardly ever use the foot parking brake since it just isn’t as convenient.

      Hello.
      I seem to have the same problem with the driver side power seat of my 2022 Frontier. I adjust the driver's seat the way I like it. Seat goes back to default position every time I get in the truck and drive the truck. It is so annoying to keep adjusting the driver's side seat! How did they fix your problem?

    You should always use your emergency brake. I’ve had vehicles with 300,000 and 400,000 km on them and emergency brake being used every day. It’s just fine, they can be adjusted and worst case scenario a cable is much cheaper than a transmission pin.

    Hey at least Nissan doing the right thing when I had a 2011 Ford Explorer I was one of the 1st people in the country to tell Ford that there's a problem with the steering. Ford blew me off and my family barely avoided a deadly accident.
    Took Ford about 5 or 6 years to address it.

    When I saw that Nissan was putting a Mercedes transmission (it's a 9G-Tronic licensed to Jatco) in the Frontier, Titan, and now the Z I figured it would lead to problems. They should have either stuck with the time-tested 7-speed or developed their own 9 speed.

    Wow I just put a down payment on a 2022 frontier 4 days ago. The dealership said they just need a week to get the recall part in and the truck will be ready. The truck is on the lot and l was in it. I can’t wait to hear the stories they give me now that I know this. I insured the vehicle already and was approved thru Nissan financing but they weren’t allowed for me to sign the lease contract until the part is fixed.
