2005 Nissan Frontier 4dr Extended Cab 6ft bed

265-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range

37 mi Used car warranty service. Replaced broken hood holder clip; lubricated driver's door hinges since it shuts hard; examined but did nothing about a floppy seatbelt retractor saying it is normal (reminded me of the early 80s Toyotas that were recalled). 
38600 mi Under used car warranty, Nissan repaired passenger door handle which started to fall off! Also, resealed the gasket around the windshield as it was pulling out.
