I OWN A 2005 NISSAN TITAN PICKUP WHICH I PURCHASED NEW. THE VEHICLE HAS 57,000 MILES. MY DRIVEWAY IS STEEP AS I LIVE IN A REMOTE LOCATION. ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO I WAS HEADED TO TOWN. THE REAR END WENT OUT AND MY TITAN SLID OFF THE ROADWAY. THE MECHANIC WHO IS REPAIRING MY VEHICLE TOLD ME THIS WAS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH MY MODEL OF VEHICLE. I CHECKED ON LINE AND FOUND MANY SIMILAR INCIDENTS. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND FOUND THERE WAS NO RECALL REGARDING THIS. REPAIR COST IS NOW OVER $2000. *TR

AFTER A CAR PASSED, HE PROCEEDED TO TURN INTO THE PARKING LOT. AT THAT TIME, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND UNCONTROLLABLY ACCELERATED. HE PUT HIS FOOT ON THE BRAKE, BUT TO NO AVAIL.

POWER TRAIN
1. NORMAL, HIGHWAY AND LOCAL DRIVING OF VEHICLE. NO ABUSIVE VEHICLE TREATMENT. A MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO DO A TEMPORARY REPAIR TO ENABLE US TO DRIVE HOME AND WE THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE TO OUR LOCAL GARAGE TO HAVE IT FULLY INSPECTED. 2. THE FRONT RIGHT AXLE (HALF-SHAFT) OF THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE FELL OUT OF THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL UNIT. HAD THIS HAPPENED AT A HIGHER SPEED IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE OR EVEN 2 WHEEL DRIVE A LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL COULD OCCUR RESULTING IN A CRASH. 3. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL OF THE VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH THEY REALIZE THERE WAS A FAULTY BEARING DESIGN. THE BEARING HAS SINCE BEEN REDESIGNED BUT VEHICLES WITH THE DEFECTIVE BEARING ARE STILL IN SERVICE. THE LOCAL VEHICLE DEALER'S MECHANICS HAVE SAID THEY HAVE SEEN THESE INCIDENTS AND CAN REPLACE THE BEARING AT MY EXPENSE SINCE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY (THE VEHICLE HAS 76,00 MILES -- NO OFFROAD -- AND THE WARRANTY IS ONLY GOOD FOR 60,000). HOWEVER, THIS IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT THAT IS KNOWN TO THE MANUFACTURER AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED AND REPLACED A LONG TIME AGO. I AM REQUESTING THAT YOU INVESTIGATE THIS MATTER AS THE MANUFACTURER SEEMS TO WANT TO IGNORE THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ON MY 2006 NISSAN TITAN HAVE CRACKED, CAUSING TOXIC EXHAUST FUMES TO LEAK INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. THE TRUCK HAS LESS THAN 100,000 MILES. I BELIEVE THIS ISSUE TO BE CAUSED BY FAULTY PARTS SUPPLIED BY NISSAN. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM, EQUIPMENT
EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAKING FOR THE SECOND TIME. BANK 1 SIDE WAS BAD BEFORE THE 80 EMISSIONS WARRANTY WAS UP, HOWEVER DEALERSHIP WOULDN'T DO IT, SO WE PURCHASED ANOTHER OEM MANIFOLD/CAT AND HAD ANOTHER SHOP REPLACE IT. NOW 2 YEARS LATER THAT SIDE HAS FAILED AND IS LEAKING AGAIN. THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER HAS FAILED ON THAT SIDE ALSO. NISSAN HAS NOT OFFERED A RECALL. EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAKING ALLOWS EXHAUST FUMES TO NOT BE VENTED CORRECTLY AND THE FUMES CAN COME INTO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND IT SHOULD BE NOTED I'M OUT OF THE 80 K EMISSIONS WARRANTY. THE OEM EQUIPMENT IS NOT UP TO PAR. *TR
