SUSPENSION:FRONT, SUSPENSION, POWER TRAIN, POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE, STEERING
2005 NISSAN TITAN CREW CAB 4X4 WITH OFF-ROAD PACKAGE, WITHIN 10,000 MILES THERE WERE LOOSE BOLTS ON THE TRANSFER CASE. AT 38,500 MILES THE LEFT FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SEAL FAILED AND LEAKED. AT 39,800 MILES THE POWER STEERING HOSE WENT BAD AND LEAKED. AT 51,000 MILES THE CIRCULAR CLIP ON THE AXLE AT FRONT LEFT DIFFERENTIAL DEFORMED CAUSING AXLE TO BEGIN TO FALL OUT OF VEHICLE!!! THANKFULLY ALL HAS BEEN COVERED UNDER OUR EXTENDED WARRANTY, AND DEALERSHIPS HAVE REPLACED PARTS, BUT WHEN IT RUNS OUT THESE WILL COME FROM OUR POCKET, AND NO ONE CAN GUARANTEE THE NEW PARTS ARE NOT JUST REPLACEMENTS OR ANY BETTER. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN DEATH OR INJURY TO US OR SOMEONE ELSE HAD THAT AXLE FELL FROM VEHICLE, AND COULD OCCUR AGAIN. *TR

AT ONLY 60,755 MILES I EXPERIENCED A REAR AXLE SEAL LEAK WHICH AFFECTED MY ABILITY TO APPLY MY EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE. THE FLUID HAD LEAKED SO BAD THAT IT COVERED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ROTOR, PREVENTING IT FROM HOLDING.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, PARKING BRAKE
I DROVE ABOUT 20 FEET WHEN I HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND REALIZED I HAD FOGOT THE PARKING BRAKE ON. I TOOK IT OFF AND DROVE AWAY. THE NEXT DAY I HEARD MORE NOISE AND ONE OF MY REAR BRAKES SEEMED TO BE DRAGGING. I DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. ON THE HIGHWAY, ALL HELL BROKE LOOSE WITH CRAZY NOISE AND GRINDING, THEN IT WENT AWAY. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES ON THE WAY TO DEALER. WITH MY 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SEAT I LIMPED THE CAR INTO THE DEALER WITH NO EMERGENCY BRAKES WORKING. THANKFULLY WE WERE ALL OKAY AND I DID NOT LOOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER SAID IT WOULD BE AT LEAST $1,700 TO FIX IT AS THE WHOLE REAR AXLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE SEALS BLOWING OUT AND LEAKING OUT ALL OVER THE PADS. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE EXCEPT FOR BRAKES, BRAKES AND MORE BRAKE ISSUES. I THINK THE E BRAKE BEING ON MAY HAVE CAUSED THE SEAL TO BLOW OUT THEN THE AXLE AND BRAKES JUST MELTED. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS VEHICLES BRAKE DESIGN. IF THESE SEALS ARE KNOW TO BE BAD BY NISSAN THEY SHOULD AT LEAST RECOMMEND REPLACING THEM SO OWNERS CAN PROTECT THEMSELVES AND AVOID ACCIDENTS,

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
I WAS DRIVING A 2004 NISSAN TITAN APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH. THE MOTOR CUT OFF AND I COASTED TO A STOP. THE MOTOR RESTARTED AFTER A FEW MINUTES AND I ATTEMPTED TO GET TO A REPAIR SHOP. AFTER DRIVING APPROX 3 MILES, THE MOTOR CUT OFF AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE AFTER A FEW MINUTES AND DROVE APPROX 1 MILE TO A REPAIR SHOP. AFTER LEAVING THE REPAIR SHOP, I CALLED TWO NISSAN DEALERS AND BOTH SAID THAT IT SOUNDED LIKE A RECALL THAT NISSAN HAD PLANNED FOR EARLY DEC 2010. ONE OF THEM SUGGESTED THAT I HAVE THE REPAIR SHOP RUN A DIAGNOSTIC TO SEE IF ANYTHING SHOWED AS A PROBLEM. IF NOTHING SHOWED THEN IT WAS PROBABLY RELATED TO THE SCHEDULED RECALL. I CONTACTED THE REPAIR SHOP AND RELAYED THE INFO. AFTER RUNNING THE DIAGNOSTIC, I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WERE NO WARNINGS. I HAVE MAJOR CONCERNS ABOUT DRIVING A VEHICLE WITH AN ENGINE THAT WILL JUST CUT OFF FOR NO APPARENT REASON. WHEN I ASKED THE TWO DEALERS WHAT COULD BE DONE, I WAS TOLD NOT MUCH SINCE THE RECALL ISN'T DUE TO GO INTO EFFECT UNTIL DEC AND THAT THEY (THE DEALERS) HAD BEEN INSTRUCTED TO NOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL DEC. IT APPEARS THAT NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT CHOOSES TO IGNORE THE POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES. *TR

POWER TRAIN
THE REAR AXLE SEALS WERE REPLACED WITH OEM 2 YEARS AGO. THEY ARE NOW LEAKING AGAIN ALLOWING GEAR LUBE TO RUN DOWN THE TUBES ONTO THE REAR BRAKES AND TIRES. RENDERING THE REAR BRAKES AND PARKING BRAKES USELESS AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THIS MAKES THE PARKING BRAKE USELESS PUTTING THE WHOLE TRUCKS WEIGHT CONSTANTLY ON THE PARK PIN OF THE TRANSMISSION. THIS REAR BRAKE LOSS CAUSED BRAKE FADE OF THE FRONT BRAKE COMING OFF AN INTERSTATE NEARLY REAR ENDING ANOTHER VEHICLE. I SAW ON THE FORUMS AND YOUR OWN COMPLAINT SEARCH THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON AND DANGEROUS ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED. THE PROBLEM MUST LAY IN THE AXLES AND NOT THE SEAL THEMSELVES TO BE GOING SO OFTEN. I TOW SOMETIMES AND THIS IS MY DAILY DRIVER SO I MUST FIX THE PROBLEM ASAP. I HAVE TO REPLACE BRAKES AND ROTORS ALL THE WAY AROUND ALONG WITH PARKING SHOES AXLE SEALS AND BEARING RETAINERS. THIS IS VERY EXPENSIVE.

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN JULY 2006 WITH 51, 100 MILES AND DISCOVERED BOTH REAR AXLE SEALS LEAKING. NISSAN REPLACED THE ENTIRE REAR AXLE IN JULY 2006. NOW 5 YEARS AND 39,000 MILES LATER THE PROBLEM RETURNED. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAKING FOR THE SECOND TIME. BOTH SIDES WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND THEN 1 YEAR AND 8 DAYS LATER I WAS TOLD THEY WERE LEAKING AGAIN. NISSAN REFUSES TO COVER UNDER WARRANTY. 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 ALSO FILED A REQUEST WITH THE MAIN NISSAN CORPORATION. *TR

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
WHILE DRIVING MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN SE CREWCAB 4X4 THIS PAST WEEKEND, I HEARD LOUD BANGING NOISES COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE TRUCK. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN (AT LOW SPEED), I NOTICED THE LEFT REAR TIRE LOCKED UP COMPLETELY. THIS SAME SYMPTOM CONTINUED THROUGH THE NEXT DAY SO I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AND DROPPED OFF MY TRUCK THIS MORNING (TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2010) AT THE NISAN DEALER IN MELBOURNE, FL. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE REAR DIFFERENTIAL AND IT WOULD COST ME AROUND $3,400 PLUS TAX. I ONLY HAVE 79,732 MILES ON THE TRUCK, DON'T USE IT TO TOW, AND DON'T OFF ROAD WITH IT. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP THIS WAS RIDICULOUS BECAUSE I HAD A DODGE RAM 1500 THAT I DROVE UNTIL ABOUT 176K MILES AND IT NEVER HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS. THE DEALER HAD NO ANSWER ... I DID SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AND NOTICED THIS IS A RECURRING THEME FOR 2005 NISSAN TITANS. I HAVE A CALL INTO A LEMON LAW ATTORNEY TO SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE SINCE I DON'T HAVE $3,400 PLUS TAX TO THROW AWAY ON A NISSAN DEFECT. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL
2006 NISSAN TITAN DIED IN PARKING LOT ON SUNDAY, AUGUST 1ST, STARTED RIGHT UP. ON MONDAY, AUGUST 2ND, DIED IN BANK DRIVE THROUGH, TOOK ABOUT 8-10 MINUTES TO GET STARTED, THEN ONLY "CHUGGED". WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF DRIVE THROUGH LINE AND TO PARKING SPOT. TURNED ENGINE OFF FOR 20 MINUTES, STARTED UP AND WENT BACK TO WORK. AT 5:00 ON THAT DAY, WOULD NOT START. TRIED FOR 30 MINUTES. HUSBAND HAD FRIEND TOW IT HOME AND THEY CHECKED THE SPARK PLUGS AND A FEW THINGS WITH NO LUCK. ON AUGUST, 4TH, HUSBAND TOWED THE TRUCK TO THE CLAY COOLEY NISSAN DEALERSHIP, THEIR TEST SHOWED IT TO BE THE IPDM SENSOR OUT. THIS PART WAS REPLACED AND TRUCK WAS FIXED. THE COST FOR THIS REPAIR WAS $306.16. I HAVE JUST FOUND OUT THAT THIS SENSOR HAS BEEN RECALLED ON TITANS PRODUCED FROM 2004 TO JUNE 2006. ACCORDING TO CLAY COOLEY NISSAN, MY TRUCK WAS PRODUCED IN APRIL 2006; ACCORDING TO NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE THIS RECALL WAS EFFECTIVE FROM 2004 TO MARCH 2006. THIS MAKES NO SENSE TO ME. THIS PART WAS RECALLED AND IT WENT OUT ON MY TRUCK. I PLAN TO KEEP FOLLOWING ON THIS ISSUE UNTIL I GET MY 306.16 REFUNDED. *TR
