i own a 2010 nissan frontier the problem im having is this vehicle sqeels at start up if the temp is 10 degrees or lower if its warmer than that i dont get that noise i have taken this vehicle to 2 dealerships the first dealer heard the noise and replaced the drive belt, fan clutch , tinchener and a couple of the pullys in the engine and still having a problem but told me they have been having complaints of the same nature hmmmmm? so 2 weeks later still having problem took it back to the same dealer and told me to take it back to the dealer i bought it from cause they couldnt figure it out (?) now i have taken it to another dealer in my state and there saying it has to be replicated for them to help me fix it. so is there anybody out there that has this year of frontier that has this problem ? and do u have this issue as well ? and how did u fix it ?

There is a NTB for 05-08 model yrs. for this concern, but
nothing for the 10. Are you sure that the heater blower is
off before starting so the A/C comp does not activate if in
def mode?

I think the service bulletin Frontierguy mentioned is in reference to a bad secondary timing chain tensioner issue that should be resolved. If you had this problem you would hear the noise all the time, and it's more of a gear whine. My 2006 Xterra had this problem, but it didn't start until around 90,000 miles.
