Seeking Advice on Dealing with Uneven Ride Height and Excessive Bouncing in a 2007 Nissan Frontier
(Translated from German)
Summary of the thread
A 2007 Nissan Frontier owner is experiencing uneven ride height and excessive bouncing. The suspected cause is a malfunctioning height sensor, but it could also be due to worn-out struts and shock absorbers. A similar issue was resolved by fixing a faulty sensor cable connection. The suggested solution is to have a mechanic inspect the height sensor, struts, and shock absorbers to determine the exact cause and fix the problem.

Cheers for your reply! Nice to know there's someone out there who has tackled a similar issue. It's a relief it wasn't anything too expensive. I have put in 38799 KM on my frontier since the last service. So, guess I'll have to drop by my mechanic to get this sensor issue checked out. Thanks for the pointers!

Hey, no worries! Always glad to help out. With those kilometers, it makes sense to get it checked. Keep an eye too on the struts and shock absorbers, excessive bouncing could be due to worn-out ones, and that can exacerbate the uneven ride height issue, not just the height sensor. Anyway, a good mechanic will be able to sort it out. Let us know how you get on, fingers crossed it won't be a wallet-buster! Cheers!

Hey, I had a similar scenario with my 2005 Nissan Navara not too long ago. I'm not the biggest car whizz but I've got a bit of experience under my belt. Anyhow, faced an uneven ride height too and had me yerks I can tell you! Took it to my local workshop and turned out the cable connection on a sensor was faulty. Ended up setting me back about 155 Euro to get it right. But listen – check the make, model, and mileage on your Frontier; more details like that can make it easier to guide you further. All the best with it!
