I OWN A 2004 NISSAN TITAN, AND I NOTICED OIL ON MY REAR WHEELS, AND ON THE FLOOR BELOW BOTH OF MY REAR BRAKES. THE OIL WAS LEAKING FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL AT BOTH ENDS OF THE AXLE. THE OIL WAS LEAKING ALL OVER THE BRAKE BACKING PLATE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED BOTH REAR WHEEL BEARINGS AND SEALS. I TURNED THIS INTO NISSAN,AND THEY RE-EMBERSED ME FOR THE REPAIR. I FOUND THAT THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON ON THE 2004 NISSAN TITAN, AND I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE REAR BRAKES DO NOT OPERATE WELL NOW THAT THE OIL WAS ON THE BRAKES. AT THE TIME, I HAD APPROXIMATELY 75000 MILES ON THE TRUCK, AND DON'T TOW OR USE FOR HEAVY USE. I DRIVE THIS AS I WOULD A CAR. ANYHOW, THE PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL SEAL HAS STARTED LEAKING AGAIN, AND I HAVE 90,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK NOW. I FEEL NISSAN SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL THIS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS MANUFACTURER DEFECT. *TR

REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKING AGAIN IN LESS THAN 3 YRS. I HAVE HAD TWO REAR ENDS IN MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN AND IT IS NOW LEAKING ON THE LEFT REAR. I HAVE HAD THE REAR REPLACED LAST YEAR AND NOW IT IS JUST OVER THE YR. WARRENTY FOR ANOTHER REPLACEMENT AND NISSAN IS SAYING I NEED TO HAVE THE ENTIRE REAR REPLACED AND IT IS COSTLY. *TR

TIRES, TIRES:SIDEWALL
TIRE SIDEWALL SEPARATION. ON 4/25/2009, I PURCHASED 4 NEW TOYO OPEN COUNTRY H/T, P265/70R18 TRUCK TIRES FOR MY 2006 NISSAN TITAN PICKUP TRUCK. ON SUNDAY, 5/3/2010, I NOTICED THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE HAD A SMALL CHUNK OF THE BLACK OUTSIDE SIDEWALL MISSING. UPON INSPECTION, I COULD NOT FIND WHERE ANY TYPE OF DEBRIS HAD HIT THE TIRE, NOR COULD I FIND WHERE ANY OF THE OTHER TIRES HAD BEEN DAMAGED. THE FOLLOWING DAY, I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THEM INSPECT THE DAMAGE. AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE, THE TOTAL VEHICLE MILEAGE WAS 30,586. AS OF THIS DATE, THE MILEAGE IS 40,845. A TOTAL OF 10,259 MILES HAVE BEEN DRIVEN SINCE THE TIRES WERE PURCHASED. AS THE TIRES CAME WITH A 60K MILE DAMAGE WARRANTY, I WAS EXPECTING TO HAVE THE TIRE REPLACED AND TO PAY ANY MILEAGE ADJUSTMENT FEE. THE DEALER INSTEAD INFORMED ME THAT, BECAUSE OF THE TYPE OF DAMAGE, THEY WOULD HAVE TO CONTACT TOYO AND OBTAIN THEIR APPROVAL TO REPLACE THE TIRE. I WAS TOLD UNTIL TOYO CONTACTED THEM, THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO, BUT THAT IT WAS SAFE TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER REGULARLY, AND HAVE TOLD THAT TOYO HAS YET TO RESPOND. AFTER CHECKING THE NTSB.GOV WEBSITE, THE ONLY RECALL FOR A TIRE CLOSE TO THE ONE I HAVE MENTIONED IS A TOYO OPEN COUNTRY A/T MODEL. *TR

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
RIGHT AND LEFT REAR AXLE SEALS BLEW OUT AND LEAKED DIFFERENTIAL FLUID. DIFFERENTIAL FLUID LEAKING ON REAR BRAKE ROTORS WHICH COULD CAUSE BRAKE FAILURE, WHICH WAS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN TO ME. BOUGHT USED ON 3/22/2010 WITH 61,611 MILES ON VEHICLE. NO SUSPENSION MODIFICATIONS HAD BEEN DONE TO VEHICLE. 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 SO WE WOULD NOT BE FACED WITH THE SAFETY ISSUE IN THE FUTURE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2006 NISSAN TITAN, WHEN SHE WAS ARRIVING TO AN INTERSECTION AND CAME TO A STOP THE TRUCK JUST SHUT OFF WITHOUT A WARNING. THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY TYPE OF WARNING. MY CONCERN IS FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY, WE HAVE A FOUR MONTH OLD BABY THAT WE TRANSPORT ON THAT VEHICLE. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE IPDM INOP HAS NO POWER TO THE FUEL PUMP.BUT, I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND I'M NOT THE FIRST INDIVIDUAL WITH THIS PROBLEM; ON ONE INCIDENT A TRUCK, SAME MODEL DIFFERENT YEAR, SHUT OFF ON THE FREEWAY WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED WERE THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. NISSAN RIGHT NOW HAS A RECALL WITH THEIR GAS GAUGE, BUT THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM WITH MY TRUCK WAS NOT RELATED WITH THE COMPONENT ON RECALL. I QUESTIONED THAT FACT THAT THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE OR ANY TYPE OF WARNING IF THE TRUCKS COMPONENT HAS POWER AND IS ATTACHED TO THE TRUCKS COMPUTER; I COULDN'T GET AN EXPLANATION FROM THE ASSISTANT SERVICE MANAGER AT THE NISSAN DEALER. *TR
