VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
IN THE 2005 NISSAN TITAN OWNER'S MANUAL PAGE 2-45 "INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS" READS "AUTO-REVERSE FUNCTION...IF THE CONTROL UNIT DETECTS SOMETHING CAUGHT IN A WINDOW EQUIPPED WITH AUTOMATIC OPERATION AS IT IS CLOSING, THE WINDOW WILL BE IMMEDIATELY LOWERED." THAT IS NOT HAPPENING, WHEN WE USE THE AUTOMATIC CLOSE FOR THE WINDOW, IT WILL NOT IMMEDIATELY LOWER IF AN OBJECT GETS IN THE WAY. *JB

POWER TRAIN
I BOUGHT A CAR ON 08/06/2005 THE SALES PERSON TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A PURCHASE AND HE ASK ME TO SIGN THE BLANK FORMS AND THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO FILL THEM UP AND SEND THEM TO MY HOME ADDRESS WHEN I RECEIVED THE PAPERS I NEVER CHECKED THE INFORMATION. I HAVE BEEN PAYING TILL NOW BUT NOW I TRIED TO TALK TO THE SALES PERSON TO CHECK MY CAR HE TOLD ME THAT I HAD TO PAY BECAUSE I HAD A LEASE THAT WAS WHY I CALLED TO THE NISSAN MOTOR ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION AND THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY INFORMATION ABOUT ME THEY ONLY HAD INFORMATION ABOUT SANTOS ROMERO. THAT IS WHY I WANT TO CANCEL THIS LEASE AGREEMENT BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO LEASE A CAR I WANTED BUY A CAR AND THEY LIED ME. *NM

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH
2005 TITAN KING CAB DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE STICKS OPEN IN FREEZING TEMPERATURE OR A LITTLE BELOW. NO CONTACT WITH WATER FOR OVER A WEEK. THIS KEEPS THE DOOR FROM CLOSING ALL TOGETHER. QUICK FIX. MUST HOLD CLOSED AND LOCK MANUALLY. ONCE LOCKED, HOWEVER, ONE CANNOT EXIT VEHICLE FROM THAT SIDE. POSSIBLE DEATH TRAP. DEALER FOUND NO PROBLEM. ONCE IT GOT IT TO THE DEALER IT WAS 50 DEGREES OUTSIDE. GO FIGURE. NEW DOOR HANDLE ASSEMBLY ON ORDER. *AK

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT
REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE DURING NORMAL DRIVING. VEHICLE HAD 9,000 MILES. UPON TAKING A RIGHT TURN A LOUD CLANK WAS HEARD BY MYSELF AND PASSENGERS FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. ON MY WAY HOME I REALIZED THAT ONE TIRE WAS NOT MAINTAINING TRACTION EVEN THROUGH SLOW TURNS, AND THE CLANKING RECURRED EVERY SO OFTEN. TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND HE AGREED THAT REAR DIFFERENTIAL WOULD BE REPLACED. THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB OF REPLACING THE UNIT IN 8 DAYS, HOWEVER IT WAS A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE TO BE WITHOUT THE CAR FOR THAT PERIOD.*AK

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
I PURCHASED A NEW 2005 NISSAN TITAN LE. THE FACTORY INSTALLED BRAKES ARE UNSAFE AND INADEQUATE FOR THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD SHAKE TERRIBLY. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY REPLACED THE ROTORS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE FACTORY ROTORS WERE TOO SMALL FOR THE TRUCK. THE TRUCK NOW HAS 7,000 MILES ON IT AND THE TERRIBLE BRAKE JUDDERING IS BACK. IT MAKES THE VEHICLE MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO STOP. IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE STOPPING THE BRAKE PEDAL SHOOK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHO STATED THAT DURING ASSEMBLY THE DISCS AND ROTORS FOR A MAXIMA WERE PLACED ON THIS VEHICLE. THE DEALER OFFERED TO REPLACE THE DISCS AND ROTORS, BUT THE CONTACT DECLINED. THE DEALER INDICATED THERE COULD BE MULTIPLE VEHICLES PRODUCED AT THE SAME PLANT WITH THE INCORRECT BRAKING COMPONENTS.*AK

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH
I OWN A 2005 NISSAN TITAN CREW CAB WHICH HAS FAULTY DOOR LATCH MECHANISMS. WHEN TEMPERATURES BECOME NEAR OR BELOW FREEZING SOME OR ALL OF THE DOOR LATCHES FAIL TO OPERATE PROPERLY. WHEN IT OCCURS IT CAUSES THE DOORS TO STAY LATCHED, IF IT OCCURS ON ALL THE DOORS AT ONCE YOU CANNOT GAIN ENTRY TO THE VEHICLE. THEY ALSO MALFUNCTION IN THE OPPOSITE, OPENING BUT NOT LATCHING LEAVING THE DOOR ABLE TO SWING FREE. I BROUGHT THIS PROBLEM TO MY SERVICE MANAGER AND THEY SAID THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THEY HAD HEARD OF THE PROBLEM. THEY APPLIED A GROSS AMOUNT OF SILICONE SPRAY TO THE LOCKING MECHANISM HOPING TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE DOOR HAS MALFUNCTIONED TWICE SINCE THEN WITH THE COLD TEMPERATURES. I HAVE A SMALL CHILD AND I FEEL THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE PROBLEM THAT COULD RESULT IN INJURY. *NM

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHILE PUTTING GASOLINE INTO MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN IT SPILLS BACK OUT OF THE TANK. THE GAS WILL GO INTO THE TANK THEN THE PUMP WILL STOP AND THEN GAS WILL SPUW BACK OUT. THIS NORMALLY HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE I CAN GET THE TANK FULL. THIS HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN ONE TIME, IT HAPPENS ANYTIME MY TANK IS LOW AND I AM READY TO FILL UP WITH GAS. THE TANK HAS BEEN REPLACED BY THE DEALERSHIP. THIS HAS NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM. *NM

REAR END FAILURE (MANY FAILURES HAVE BEEN REPORTED) I HAVE CHILDREN THAT RIDE WITH ME AND AM CONCERNED IF REAR END WENT AT SPEED. MINE WAS NOT A TOTAL FAILURE, YET. WHINNING NOISE AND DASH LIGHTS MADE ME BRING IT IN. THEY DID SOME TESTING AND ADVISED ME THAT THEY WOULD ORDER A NEW REAR END. TOLD ME TO DRIVE IT TILL THE NEW ONE COMES IN. I THINK THIS COULD BE A DANGEROUS SITUATION. *NM
