ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON DATE THE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED, BEFORE WE DROVE TRUCK OFF LOT, CENTER CONSOLE HAD UPDATE ERROR MESSAGE DISPLAYED (SEE IMAGES). NOTHING ON CENTER CONSOLE WOULD WORK, BUT VEHICLE WOULD RUN FINE. BLIND SPOT DETECTION WOULD NOT WORK. SYSTEM WOULD TRY TO REBOOT ITSELF FOR ABOUT AN HOUR BEFORE SYSTEM WOULD COME BACK ONLINE AND EVERYTHING WOULD BE NORMAL, INCLUDING BLIND SPOT DETECTION. NEXT DAY, I TOOK TRUCK TO WORK AND CONSOLE WENT OUT AGAIN AS I WAS DRIVING. BLIND SPOT DETECTION NO LONGER WORKED AGAIN. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP. THEY CONFIRMED IT HAD THE LATEST SOFTWARE UPDATE AND DETERMINED HEAD UNIT WAS BAD AND ARE REPLACING IT NOW.

ENGINE
I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW IN JULY 2018. WHEN THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A KNOCKING SOUND I TOOK IT TO A NISSAN DEALER SHIP TO BE DIAGNOSED. I WAS TOLD "THEY WERE AWARE OF ISSUES WITH SOME OF THESE ENGINES AND 2 OTHER VECHICLES HAVE ALREADY REQUIRED THE MOTORS BE REPLACED BY THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I DECIDED TO GET A SECOND OPINION SO I WENT TO ANOTHER NISSAN DEALER. THIS DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THAT THEY HAVE A FACTORY NOTICE STATING THERE ARE ISSUES WITH THIS MOTOR. THE DEALERSHIP IS TELLLING ME THEY CAN NOT PERFORM THE FACTORY REQUIRED TEST FOR THREE WEEKS AND IF IT IS DETERMINED IT IS A DEFECTIVE ENGINE IT WILL BE ANOTHER 3 TO 4 WEEKS UNTIL THE ENGINE CAN BE REPLACED. IN THE MEAN TIME I AM STILL DRIVING THE VEHICLE. IN THE EVENT THAT THIS ENGINE FAILS AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR LOSS OF STEERING AND LOSS OF BRAKES. CURRENTLY THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY RECALLS OR NOTICES SENT OUT TO THE CONSUMER AND FROM WHAT I AM TOLD IT IS UNKNOWN HOW MANY OF THESE VEHICLES ARE DEFECTIVE AND CURRENTLY ON THE ROAD.

WHEN FLOORING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL (AS TO PULL OUT ON ENTRANCE RAMP) IT HAS DIESEL LAG RESPONSE (JUST TAKE A FEW SECONDS TO ACCELERATE) AND ALSO TRANSMISSION HAS SHIFTING ISSUES DURING THIS TIME. SOMETIMES INTERMITTENT I HAD A NEAR MISS EXPERIENCE WHEN THIS HAPPENED TO ME I WAS PULLING OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY FROM THE ENTRANCE RAMP..

POWER TRAIN
WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN ONTO A FOUR LANE ROAD WITH MEDIAN SEPARATING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION LANES, I BEGAN TO PULL OUT AND WHEN PART WAY ACROSS WAS FACED WITH AN EMERGENCY WITH A CAR RACING AT ME IN THE SECOND LANE. FLOORING THE ACCELERATOR, THE TRUCK FAILED TO ACCELERATE OR DOWNSHIFT THROUGH THE TURN. THIS IS BRAND NEW 2018 TITAN XD DIESEL 2000 MILES ON IT. FIRST TRIP TO DEALER TOLD NO CODES ALL FIRMWARE UP TO DATE. "YOU NEED TO DRIVE SOME MORE FOR IT TO LEARN" SYMTOMS STILL EVIDENT AFTER 600 MILES. DEALER FOUND NOTHING AND NISSAN SAID RELEASE TO CUSTOMER. "UNABLE TO REPLICATE CUSTOMER CONCERN." FILED CASE WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. TOLD TO TAKE TO DIFFERENT DEALER FOR SECOND OPINION. SAME ANSWERS. NISSAN SCHEDULED ENGINEER TO MEET ME AT DEALER. DUPLICATED DELAY / LACK OF DRIVE OVER TO MEET ENGINEER. TEST DROVE FOR 30 MINUTES WHERE ENGINEER DUPLICATED HARD SHIFTS BUT NOT DELAYS. MY OPINION BUT HE NEVER TRIED TO MIMIC CONDITIONS FOR DELAY. REPORT " NO PROBLEMS FOUND, EVERYTHING TO MAUNFACTURES DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS. " TOOK BACK TO FIRST DEALER AND TEST DROVE WITH TECH WHO IMMEDIATELY AND REPEATEDLY REPEATED PROBLEM OF DELAY / NO ACCELERATION FOR MULTIPLE SECONDS WITH ACCELERATOR FLOORED. SAID NISSAN NEVER CAME UP WITH FIX, THEY ALL DO IT. ALSO, OFFERED HIS OWN SITUATION WHERE ON A TEST DRIVE ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY A SEMI AFTER MAKING A TURN ON A HIGHWAY FEEDER ROAD. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO FIX IT AFTER 3 YEARS.

TRUCK HAS BAD HESITATION WHEN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTING FROM GEAR TO GEAR AND THE RPMS FLUCTUATE BADLY. NO LOW END POWER. THIS CONDITION IS WORSE WHEN TOWING. DEALER SAID THEY ALL DO THIS. I HAVE OWNED 4 TITANS INCLUDING MY 2018 NONE OF MY OTHER TRUCKS DID THIS. WISH I DIDN'T TRADE IN MY 2013

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BOUGHT THE TRUCK BRAND NEW ON 7/16/2018. WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM DEALERSHIP AND NEXT DAY ON SMOOTH HIGHWAY BETWEEN 60MPH - 80MPH YOU CAN FEEL IT SHAKING. YOU CAN WATCH THE PASSENGER SEAT SHAKE AS IF ON A UNLOADED WASHING MACHINE. EVEN WITH A PASSENGER THEY NOTICED THEY SHAKE TOO. IT IS A VERY NOTICEABLE SHAKE ESPECIALLY AROUND 72MPH, AS IT SEEMS LIKE A WHEEL UNBALANCED OR ALIGNMENT IS NOT RIGHT. I BROUGHT TRUCK BACK INTO THE DON DAVIS NISSAN DEALERSHIP ON 7/17/18 BUT THE DEALERSHIP JUST SHRUGGED IT OFF SAYING IT MIGHT BE A FLAT SPOT IN THE TIRE AND DID NOTHING. TOLD ME TO DRIVE IT FOR A DEW HUNDRED MILES. THIS IS A PRETTY BAD SHAKE WHEN DRIVING WHICH I HAVE NEVER SEEN ON OTHER BRAND NEW TRUCKS.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY JOB REQUIRES ME TO TRAVEL A LOT AND IN DOING SO WHEN I'M EITHER MERGING ONTO THE INTERSTATE OR NEEDING TO PULL OUT AT INTERSECTIONS FROM A DEAD STOP . IT'S AS THO MY TRUCK STALLS AND MY THROTTLE RESPONSE GOES DEAD . LEAVING THE OTHER CARS DO COME CLOSE IN REAR ENDING ME . IT'S SCARY ESPECIALLY WHEN I HAVE MY WIFE ALONG WITH MY THREE KIDS RANGING FROM 8 TO 12 MONTHS OF AGE .
