POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
THE REAR AXLE SEAL ON MY NISSAN TITAN WAS LEAKING OIL ON THE REAR BRAKES AND THE FLUID LEVEL WAS EXTREMELY LOW. NOT SURE HOW OFTEN THIS FAILURE OCCURS, BUT NOW THAT I AM AWARE OF REAR AXLE SEAL LEAK PROBLEMS I WILL MONITOR FOR THE FAILURE. THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP REPLACED A BEARING, SPACER, AND REAR OIL SEAL. AFTER RESEARCHING NISSAN TITAN REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKS THERE APPEARS TO BE A TREND OF REAR AXLE SEAL FAILURES. THE PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURE BEFORE SERIOUS ACCIDENTS OCCUR. *TR

RIGHT REAR AXLE SEAL BLEW OUT AND LEAKED DIFFERENTIAL FLUID. DIFFERENTIAL FLUID LEAKING ON REAR BRAKE ROTORS WHICH COULD CAUSE BRAKE FAILURE. ALSO, THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL OIL WILL SLOWLY LEAK AND CAUSE THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL TO LOSE FLUID AND FAIL. AS THIS SEEMED TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE NISSAN TITAN, NISSAN SHOULD ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AND OFFER A PERMANENT FIX TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

POWER TRAIN, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
NOTICED A SMALL GRINDING NOISE UNDERNEATH MY 2006 NISSAN TITAN LE. A FRIEND TELLS TO CHECK THE BEARINGS. I BRING IT THE DEALER, DEALER TELLS ME I NEED TO REPLACE THE REAR BEARINGS AND SEALS - $900.00. THEY ALSO TELL ME MY BRAKES AND EMERGENCY BRAKES SHOES ARE SHOT DUE TO BEARING FLUID LEAKING ALL OVER THEM, THEY WANTED $1600.00. REPLACED ALL THE BRAKES MYSELF, WHICH WERE TOTALLY FINE....I THEN NOTICE THE SAME GRINDING NOISE PLUS ANOTHER UNDER MY DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR. BRING IT BACK TO DEALER ASKING THEM WHY. I COME TO FIND OUT THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL IS SHOT ALONG WITH THE TRANSFER CASE. THIS TRUCK HAS HIGHWAY MILES, ONLY DRIVEN IN 4X4 FOR SNOW. HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN? I THEN PROCEED TO LOOK FOR ANSWERS ON THE INTERNET AND FIND OUT THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER TITAN OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS. NISSAN HAS ACTUALLY CHANGED THE PART NUMBERS FOR THE AXLE DUE TO THE ISSUES THAT ARE RELATED. THE NEW REPAIRS WILL COST BETWEEN $3600-$4000 WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD AT THE MOMENT. DRIVE SAFE TITAN OWNERS... *TR

2004-2008 TITAN; REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKS. MINE IS A 05'. RIGHT REAR WHEEL WELL IS COVERED WITH OIL AND THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE IS FLOODED WITH OIL ALSO. 55K MILES AND FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND I WAS LUCKY IT LASTED THIS LONG. DEALERSHIP WANTS $1,500+ TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT NOT JUST WEAR AND TEAR. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
THE VEHICLE HAD WARPED FRONT ROTORS FROM DAY OF PURCHASE. THE STEERING WHEEL SHOOK FROM SIDE TO SIDE DURING TEST DRIVE AFTER APPLYING THE BAKE AT ABOUT 50 TO 60 MILES PER. I HAD TO TAKE IT BACK TO NISSAN DEALER TO REPLACE THE BRAKES AND ROTORS UNDER WARRANTY THE TRUCK HAD 632 MILES AT THE TIME. THAT WAS IN 2006. JUST RECENTLY I HAD THE BRAKES REPLACED AGAIN THE PADS WERE NOT WORN OUT COMPLETELY BUT THE ROTORS WERE WARPED AT 33,673 MILES. I PAID ANOTHER NISSAN DEALER TO HAVE PADS AND ROTORS REPLACED FOR $600 THAT SEEM TO BE THE MINIMUM CHARGE. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
FAILURE OF CRACKED MANIFOLD EXHAUST WITH BUILT IN CATALYTIC CONVERTER. I HAVE CRACKED 3 MANIFOLD EXHAUST DUE TO THE FACT THAT NISSAN DID NOT INSTALL FLEX PIPES IN THEIR EXHAUST SYSTEM. IT IS HAPPENING ON ALL THE TITAN TRUCKS...LOOK AT THE FORUMS AND MY DEALER HAS CONFIRMED IT. EXHAUST IS LEAKING INTO THE CAB AREA. IT COST OVER $900 TO JUST REPAIR THE PART. THEY WILL NOT FIX IT! IT IS LEAKING STRAIGHT EXHAUST FUMES.
