Replying to: rmsing (Jan 24, 2007 6:53 am) My 07 Armada has the same issue. I've made an appt w/ the nissan dealership so they can repair this- I'm guessing they will have to add in a switch, as I have looked for one but it does not exist for the glove box itself. I'll reply as to how they resolve this problem for me... PL

Replying to: rmsing (Jan 24, 2007 6:53 am) I had a total loss engine fire on March 6th, 2008. I noticed a strange, but strong odor while driving my '05 Armada (27,000 miles). Thought it was a truck next to me. Drove 3 miles to my kids school to pick them up. When I started the ignition again, two puffs of smoke came out either side of the engine. Quickly got my 5 & 2 yr. old children out. Within minutes smoke was billowing out of the engine. Within 10 min, the engine was engulfed in flames. Thank God we got out in time. The Fire Captain said it was most likely due to a battery or gas leak. The insurance company declared it a total loss. Nissan has been unwilling to do anything to remedy the situation - especially Nissan Consumer Affairs. I had multiple issues with the battery not starting and heavy corrosion. They replaced and performed work on the battery for 10 days in Sept. '07. Not sure if it's also related to the glove box.
