SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
1. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED AUG 11, 2010 WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN TRUCK IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT 65 MPH. 2.THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHEN I HAD TO APPLY FOOT PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL DUE TO HEAVY TRAFFIC CONGESTION. AS SOON AS BRAKE PRESSURE WAS APPLIED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL FIVE THINGS HAPPENED: A. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT SOFTER THAN NORMAL. B. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT FURTHER DOWN TOWARD THE FLOORBOARD THAN NORMAL. C. I HEARD A POPPING/PULSATING SOUND AS I HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES. D. I HEARD A GRINDING SOUND AS I HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES. E. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL RED BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I HAD NO CHOICE, BUT TO APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO AVOID CREATING AN ACCIDENT EVEN THOUGH IT SOUNDED AND FELT LIKE BRAKE FAILURE WAS OCCURRING. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS TYPE OF BRAKE INCIDENT/FAILURE HAS OCCURRED ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE PREVIOUS TWO TIMES THIS BRAKE INCIDENT/FAILURE OCCURRED AT A MUCH LOWER SPEEDS AND I COULD NOT FIND RELATION TO WHAT WAS OCCURRING WHEN I INSPECTED THE VEHICLE. 3. ONCE I HAD THE VEHICLE BACK UNDER CONTROL I TURNED INTO A LOW TRAFFIC SIDE STREET AND SLOWLY TESTED THE BRAKES, BUT ALL FIVE SYMPTOMS FROM ABOVE WERE STILL OCCURRING. I ALSO TRIED GOING IN REVERSE VERY SLOWLY, BUT THE SYMPTOMS REMAINED. I COMPLETELY STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND TURNED OFF THE IGNITION KEY AND GOT OUT TO INSPECT THE TRUCK. I COULD NOT SEE ANY VISIBLE DAMAGE TO FRONT ROTORS OR CALIPERS AND I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL, BUT NOTHING APPEARED TO BE WRONG. I TURNED THE IGNITION BACK ON AND THE RED BRAKE LIGHT HAD GONE OFF AND THE BRAKES WERE BACK TO NORMAL. I DO NOT FEEL THAT FAILURE HAS BEEN CORRECTED AND THAT IS WHY I AM WRITING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE I FEEL THERE IS SAFETY ISSUE AT HAND. IT APPEARS TO BE SOME TYPE OF INTERMENT ELECTRICAL FAILURE INTERCONNECTED TO THE BRAKE SYSTEM THAT CLEARS THE FAILURE WHEN THE IGNITION KEY IS TURNED OFF ONLY TO REAPPEAR AT ANOTHER TIME. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TRUCK WAS STALLING AND DYING, HAS HAPPENED A COUPLE OF TIMES. TOOK TRUCK TO DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR, DEALER SAID THE PROBLEM WAS THE IPDM (MODULE) AND REPLACED IT WITH MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. DEALER ALSO INFORMED ME THAT I CAN EXPECT MY CATALYTIC CONVERTERS TO GO OUT IN THE NEAR FUTURE, BECAUSE THE IPDM IS AN IMPORTANT PART FOR CONTROLLING THE WAY THE ENGINE RUNS. IF THIS IS THE CAUSE OF GREATER PROBLEMS IN THE FUTURE FOR MY TRUCK, THEY SHOULD REALLY LOOK INTO GETTING THE PROBLEM FIXED. *TR

I'M THE ONLY OWNER OF MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN CREW CAB AND I'VE BEEN HAPPY WITH THE TRUCK FOR 105,000 MILES - UNTIL THIS PAST WEEKEND WHEN, AT HIGHWAY SPEED, I BEGAN TO HEAR A WHINING NOISE. AFTER STOPPING AND VERIFYING THAT NOTHING WAS VISIBLY WRONG UNDERNEATH THE TRUCK BODY (NO LEAKS, ETC) I DROVE ON. I STOPPED A FEW MILES DOWN THE ROAD TO CHECK AGAIN AND WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT HEARD A LOUD CLUNK. I COASTED TO A STOP AND FOUND MY DRIVE SHAFT ON THE GROUND. CARRIAGE NISSAN IN GAINESVILLE GEORGIA IS QUOTING A PRICE OF SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR REPAIRS. I'VE BEEN DILIGENT ABOUT MAINTENANCE ON THIS VEHICLE AND THERE IS NO GOOD REASON WHY THE TRUCK'S REAR END SHOULD COMPLETELY FAIL THIS WAY. ONLINE, I'VE LEARNED I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE. ANY HELP OUT THERE AVAILABLE FOR THOSE OF US WITH THIS PROBLEM? *TR

ON SATURDAY AUG. 7 I NOTICED A PUDDLE OF WHAT APPEARED TO BE OIL AT THE RIGHT REAR OF MY 2006 NISSAN TITAN.THE ENTIRE WHEEL WAS COVERED IN OIL,AFTER INSPECTING, I FOUND I HAD A LEAK FROM THE SEAL ON THE AXLE. WHILE TRYING TO FIND OUT HOW AND WHY, I FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH NISSAN . WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL. THIS COULD BE AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR TO ANY OWNER. NISSAN NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. *TR

PARKING BRAKE, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I HAVE A NISSAN TITAN 2004 THAT I HAD FOR 3 YEARS. THE FIRST COUPLE OF MONTHS EVERYTHING WAS FINE, BUT THEN MY BRAKES WOULD MAKE THIS WEIRD SOUND WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WOULD COME ON. I COULD NOT HIT THE BRAKES ALL THE WAY BECAUSE IT WOULD FEEL LIKE IF THEY WERE LOCK.. I HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND TURN OFF THE TRUCK AND TURN ON AGAIN ,AND THE PROBLEM WOULD FIX IT SELF. AFTER A COUPLE OF TIMES THAT IT KEPT DOING THAT , I DECIDED TO TAKE TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE SENSOR LIGHT NEEDED TO BE RESTED AND THAT THE PROBLEM SHOULD BE SOLVE. A COUPLE AMONTHS LATER IT'S STARTED DRIVING IT AGAIN. IT WOULD MAYBE HAPPENS EVERY OTHER MONTH . I USED TO ALWAYS TAKE THE TRUCK TO GET MY OIL CHANGE AT THE NISSAN DEALER SHOP AND SINCE THE DOS COURTESY CHECK THEY TOLD ME THAT MY CV AXLES NEEDED SOME WORK DONE BECAUSE SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THEM. OF COURSE THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME A LOT, SO I HAD TO SAY NO. NOW I HAVE A TRUCK THAT NEEDS TO HAVE WORK DONE AND VERY EXPENSIVE. NOW I CAN SEE OIL LEAKAGE AT THE WHEEL BEARING. MY TRUCK DID NOT PASSED INSPECTION THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF THAT PROBLEM, SO REGISTER MY TRUCK AT ANOTHER CITY AND IT PASSED CUZ THEY WERE NOT CHECKING THOSE THINGS. I HAVE HEARD AND READ COUPLE OF THE SAME ISSUES THAT PEOPLE ARE HAVING WITH THE BACK CV AXLE SEALS AND BEARINGS. WHY WOULD I BE SPENDING MONEY ON SOMETHING THAT I WOULD LEAST EXPECTED. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF THIS ISSUE BE INVESTIGATED. I GOT 2 KIDS UNDER THE AGE OF 3 AND I'M VERY CONCERN ON THEIR SAFETY. IF NISSAN IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS , THEY NEED TO TAKE ACTION IMMEDIATELY. *TR

I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT A PROBLEM THAT HAS DEVELOPED IN MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN. BOTH REAR AXLE SEALS ARE LEAKING, OIL IS GETTING ONTO THE REAR WHEELS BRAKING SYSTEM THEREBY POSING A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR THE OCCUPANTS AND THE VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM OCCURRED JUST AROUND 50,000 MILES ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN, WHICH IS VERY SURPRISING FOR ANY VEHICLE WITH THIS SMALL AMOUNT OF MILEAGE. I HAVE FOUND ON OTHER WEBSITES THAT HUNDREDS OF OTHER TITAN OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH LEAKING REAR AXLE SEALS, WITH MILEAGE AS LOW AS 8,000 MILES, 25,000 MILES, 40,000 MILES; YET STILL, NISSAN CONTINUES TO IGNORE THIS PROBLEM, AS FAR AS A RECALL IS CONCERNED. THIS PROBLEM IS VERY COSTLY TO BE CORRECTED, RANGING FROM $1,000 TO AS HIGH AS $3,000, DEPENDING ON THE DEALER'S ESTIMATION. I WOULD STRONGLY RECOMMEND, FOR THE SAFETY OF PERSONS AND VEHICLES, THAT NISSAN BE COMPELLED TO COME UP WITH A RECALL OF THESE FAULTY AXLE SEALS ON NISSAN TITANS. THANK YOU. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN CAUGHT FIRE AND BURNED TO THE GROUND ON 7/29/10 AT 4:30PM. IT ALL STARTED AS I WAS BACKING UP AND I NOTICED AN ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL. I LOOKED DOWN AND SAW SMOKE AND INSPECTED IT CLOSER AND NOTICED THAT THE SMOKE WAS BLOOMING FROM AN ELECTRICAL COMPONENT WHICH APPEARED TO BE THE COMPUTER. I TOOK SOME VIDEO OF IT AS PROOF OF WHAT WAS GOING ON NOT KNOWING THAT MY TRUCK WOULD BE ENGULFED IN FLAMES MINUTES LATER. THE VIDEO IS CLEAR THAT IT WAS MANUFACTURER DEFECT. I TRIED TO STOP IT BY DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY BUT THAT WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL. LATER MY FIRE INSPECTOR SAID IT WAS NISSANS BCM THAT FAILED! HE WAS VERY HAPPY HAD THE VIDEO OTHERWISE HE WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY. HE SAID THE VIDEO IS REALLY CLEAR AND APPARENT WHAT HAPPENED. NISSAN NEVER RECALLED JUST SENT SERVICE BULLETINS. MY INSURANCE MAY COVER THE REMAINDER OF THE LOAN BUT THAT DOES NOT PUT ME ANOTHER VEHICLE. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN ON THIS MATTER AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO LET MY INSURANCE DEAL WITH IT, WHICH I EXPLAINED ABOVE HOW THAT DOES NOT WORK FOR ME. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS NISSANS FAULT AND THEY SHOULD HELP ME BUT THEY ARE NOT. APPARENTLY I NEED TO HIRE AN ATTORNEY THAT DEALS WITH FIRE AND I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT THIS IS VERY EXPENSIVE, WHICH I CAN NOT AFFORD. I TOLD NISSAN I HAD THE VIDEO BUT THEY DID NOT CARE. YOU WOULD THINK AFTER ALL THE TOYOTA INCIDENTS THAT THEY MAY HELP ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAD THE VIDEO OF PROOF AND THEY DID NOT . I HAVE SENT THE VIDEO AND ALL PICTURES I HAVE TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY AS WELL BUT ALL THEY WILL PROBABLY GET IS THE MONEY THEY PAID FOR LOAN. SO MY INSURANCE COMPANY IS COVERED BUT I'M LEFT OUT TO DRY. PLEASE READ THIS PART. THE FIRE INSPECTOR FOR MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND AN OUTSIDE INDEPENDENT FIRE INSPECTOR HAVE CONCLUDED IT WAS THE BCM ( BODY CONTROL MODULE). NISSAN KNEW OF THE PROBLEM BUT JUST SENT OUT SERVICE LETTERS AND NOT RECALLS. MY INSURANCE WILL BE PURSUING NISSAN AS WELL ! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE CAR WILL STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AT ANY SPEED AND START KNOCKING. THE LIGHTS WILL GO ON AND OFF IN THE DASH FOR A FEW SECOND BEFORE IT COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF. IF YOU TRY TO IGNITION AGAIN YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO START. BUT YOU CAN TURN OFF THE CAR FOR A MINUTE AND START IT BACK UP. ONE TIME I WAS ABLE TO SHUT OFF MY TRUCK HITTING THE CRUISE BUTTON. THE BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS IS THAT WHEN YOU ARE ON THE ROAD CURSING AND YOU VEHICLE STALLS YOU JUST HOPE NO ONE IS BEHIND OR IN FRONT OF YOU. THE DEALER REPLACED THE PART BUT I HAD TO COVER HALF OF THE COST OF LABOR AND PART. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
DESIGN FLAW ON NISSAN TITAN DUE TO EXHAUST LEAK WHICH WILL THEN BURN THE ELECTRICAL WIRING AND THE TRUCK WILL STOP ALL OF SUDDEN WITH LOST OF POWER AND BRAKES, WHICH MAY CAUSE ACCIDENTS. *TR WE WERE ON OUR WAY BACK FROM CAMPING TRIP WITH TRAVEL TRAILER IN TOW. ON INTERSTATE 81 NEAR WILKES BARRE, PA...WE WERE GOING 65 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE ENGINE STOPPED, WE HAD A LOST OF POWER AND BRAKES AND HAD TO CRIPPLE TOWARDS THE SHOULDER AND COULDN'T START THE ENGINE AGAIN. WHAT CAUSED THIS FAILURE IS THE TAIL PIPE CAME LOOSE DUE TO RUST AND THE HEAT FROM THE EXHAUST BURNED THE ELECTRICAL WIRING THAT WAS PLACED ALONGISDE THE EXHAUST CAUSING THE ENGINE COMPUTER TO MALFUNCTION. WE HAD TO PAY $1,300.00 TO GET THE VEHICLE REPAIRED NOT INCLUDING ONE NIGHT HOTEL STAY AND RENTING A CAR BACK HOME BECAUSE THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR A FEW DAYS AND HAVING TO DRIVE BACK UP TO PICK UP THE TRUCK WITH THE TRAVEL TRAILER AND BRING THEM ALL BACK HOME. THE DISTANCE IS 156 MILES FROM WHERE IT BROKE DOWN TO WHERE WE LIVE. I BELIEVE THERE'S A DESIGN FLAW THAT COULD BE DANGEROUS. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, SERVICE MANAGER IN WILKES BARRE ACKNOWLEDGED SEVERAL OTHER TITANS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WHEN THERE IS AN EXHAUST LEAK AS WELL AS OUR LOCAL NISSAN SERVICE MANAGER ACKNOWLEDGED THE SAME. NISSAN SHOULD HAVE PROTECTED THE WIRING IN THE EXHAUST AREA WITH HEAT SHIELD OF SOME SORT. EXHAUST LEAKS OVER TIME, IT'S THE NATURE OF THE EXHAUST BUT IT SHOULD NOT REQUIRE CUSTOMERS TO PAY $1,300.00 TO GET THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM REPAIRED. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS ASKING FOR ASSISTING IN THE REPAIR COST DUE TO DESIGN FLAW, THEY DECLINED ASSISTANCE INDICATING THAT IT IS MY NEGLIGENCE THAT THE TAILPIPE SEPARATED FROM THE MUFFLER. NO OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD WITH A DANGLING TAILPIPE NEEDS TO HAVE ELECTRICAL WIRINGS REPLACED BECAUSE OF THAT, IT'S BECAUSE THEY DON'T RUN THE WIRINGS PARALLEL TO THE EXHAUST. *TR

STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS, SUSPENSION:REAR
I HAVE COMPLAINED TO THE DEALERSHIP, SINCE DAY ONE THAT MY TRUCK HAD HANDLING ISSUES. THAT MY REAR AXLE WAS OFF CENTER AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TRACKING STRAIGHT. THEIR ANSWER WAS AN ALIGNMENT ABOUT 20 OF THEM. BAD TIRES, MY DRIVING, ETC. NOT THEIR PERFECT TRUCK. AFTER 2 1/2 YEARS OF FIGHTING NISSAN THEY SENT MY TRUCK TO A FRAME SHOP. THE REAR OF THE FRAME FROM THE FT SPRING HANGERS TP THE REAR IS BOWED UPWARDS. PUTTING MY SPRINGS IN A BIND AND CAUSING THE REAR AXLE TO BE OUT OF LINE. CAUSING THE ERRATIC HANDING. IF YOU HAVE A TITAN WHICH SEEMS TO HAVE AN OFFSET REAR AXLE HAVE THE FRAME CHECKED BY COMPUTER. THOUGH THE FRAME MAY BE STRAIGHT, THE REAR OF IT MAY BE BOWED HORIZONTALLY, CAUSING PROBLEMS. I TOOK MY TRUCK TO A FRAME SHOP 2 YRS AGO AND TOLD THEM THE FRAME WAS NOT RIGHT. I GUESS AFTER THINKING THERE WAS NO WAY MY FRAME WAS BENT THEY ALLOWED ME TO TAKE IT TO THE FRAME SHOP. HA! HA! ON THEM MAY FRAME WAS BOWED HAS BEEN SO SINCE DAY ONE. HOPEFULLY THE LAWYER CAN GET ME OUT OF THE TRUCK. *TR
