THE ENGINE ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN AFTER LIFTING THE ACCELERATOR FOR ONE TO FIVE SECONDS. THIS OCCURS REGULARLY AND HAS CAUSED TWO VEHICLE TO OBJECT ACCIDENTS. THIS OCCURS IN TRAFFIC, SLOW SPEEDS, HIGH SPEEDS, FORWARD, REVERSE, AND IS EASILY RECREATED. DEALER TECH COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG THAT WOULD CAUSE THIS ISSUE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
UPON START UP PARKING BRAKE LIGHT ON DASH ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED ON, HOWEVER THE PARKING BRAKE WAS NOT SET. ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION THE BRAKES BECAME INEFFECTIVE. THE PEDAL WAS SOFT AND THERE WAS A PULSING SENSATION. IF I HAD NOT BEEN GOING LESS THAN 5MPH I AM UNSURE IF I COULD HAVE STOPPED, I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A STOP AND PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK. ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED ALL LIGHTS AND PROBLEMS DISAPPEARED AND BRAKES FUNCTIONED OK. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL DEALER AND THEY LOCATED A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND/OR MASTER CYLINDER. *TR

POWER TRAIN
AXEL SEAL LEAK ON A LONG 2,500 VACATION DRIVE THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED A BAD ACCIDENT IF ALL THE GEAR OIL WOULD HAVE BEEN LOST. LUCK IT WAS DISCOVERED SOON ENOUGH THAT I COULD FILL THE DIFF BACK UP. SEALS HAVE BEEN REPLACED PREVIOUSLY AS WELL AS THE WHOLE AXEL ON A DIFFERENT OCCASION. THESE AXEL AND AXEL SEAL PROBLEMS MAY CAUSE A DEADLY ACCIDENT ONE DAY. MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 54,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I HAD AN ACCIDENT IN MY 2006 NISSAN TITAN IN JULY 08. I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT WHEN THE ENGINE ROARED THE TRUCK QUICKLY MOVED FORWARD AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE TRUCK. THE ONLY THING THAT STOPPED THE TRUCK WAS A CEMENT SPINDLE FENCE. I DESTROYED 10 FEET OF FENCE AND MY INSURANCE HAD TO PAY FOR THE DAMAGES. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO NISSAN AND THEY CHECKED IT, BUT THEY STATED THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THEY THEN PERFORMED THE 30000 MILE MAINTENANCE FOR APPROX $600. THE NISSAN SERVICE PERSON TOLD ME THAT I MUST HAVE PUSHED THE GAS AND THE BRAKE AT THE SAME TIME TO CAUSE THE ACCIDENT. I THEN TOOK THE TRUCK TO AN OPEN FIELD AND PUSHED THE BRAKE AND THE GAS PEDAL AT THE SAME TIME AND THE TIRES JUST SPUN AND THE TRUCK DID NOT MOVE. I TRIED THE SAME THING IN AN EMPTY PARKING LOT, THE TIRES SPUN AND THE TRUCK DID NOT MOVE. I ENDED UP GETTING RID OF THE TRUCK BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID IF THE TRUCK SPED FORWARD ON ITS OWN AGAIN AND I COULD NOT STOP IT I MIGHT GET HURT OR KILLED. I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS SOME TYPE OF DEFECT THAT CAUSED THE ENGINE TO ROAR AND CAUSE THE TRUCK TO SPEED FORWARD. I FILED A POLICE/ACCIDENT REPORT WITH THE LOCAL POLICE. *TR

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
ON THE AFTERNOON OF FEB. 25TH, 2010 MY NISSAN TITAN REAR DIFFERENTIAL MADE A LOUD BOOM NOISE. AFTER WARDS, THE WHENEVER THE VEHICLE ROLLED A LOUD WHIRLING NOISE COULD BE HEARD IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. I TOWED THE VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC WHERE HE SAID THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL IS SHOT. AS HE WAS BACKING UP FROM THE TOW TRUCK THE TRUCK MADE A SECOND LOUD POP NOISE. MY VEHICLE HAS ONLY 40K MILES ON IT. I DO NOT TOW ANYTHING. I DO NOT CONSTANTLY LUG HEAVY ITEMS ON IT. I DON'T PUSH MY TRUCK TO THE LIMIT AT ALL. BUT THIS HAPPENS. AND WORST OF ALL IT HAPPENS WHEN THE WARRANTY EXPIRES. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND UNACCEPTABLE ESPECIALLY FROM NISSAN. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND SHOULD BE FIXED. I HAVE THREE OPTIONS FROM MY MECHANIC. USED FOR A THOUSAND DOLLAR. REBUILD IT FOR 1,200.00 DOLLARS, OR OVER 2000 FOR NEW. AND THIS DOES NOT GUARANTEE IF IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN. I AM VERY UPSET AT THIS SITUATION. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON A SIDE ROAD DOING 25-35 MPH AND HER 2004 NISSAN TITAN CC SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND THEN ENGINE SHUT OFF. SHE CAME TO A STOP AND THE TRUCK RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY. ON FEB 26TH, 2010 MY WIFE WAS AT A FRIENDS HOUSE AND THE TRUCK WOULD NOT START. SHE HAD GIVEN ME THE WRONG DESCRIPTION OF WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TRUCK I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A DEAD BATTERY. SO I JUMP STARTED THE TRUCK AND IT FIRED RIGHT UP SO I REPLACED THE BATTERY. ON FEB 27TH, 2010 MY WIFE AND I WERE SITTING AT A STOPLIGHT AND THE TRUCK'S ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE ENGINE WOULD NOT RESTART AND THIS CAUSED A MAJOR TRAFFIC JAM AND WE WERE ALMOST HIT MY MULTIPLE VEHICLES. LUCKILY A COUPLE BYSTANDERS HELPED DIRECT TRAFFIC AND HELPED PUSH THE TRUCK OFF THE ROAD. THE TRUCK WOULD NOT START AND NOTHING ELSE WAS VISIBLY WRONG SUCH AS BATTERY OR ANY OTHER COMMON ITEMS. AFTER APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES THE TRUCK STARTED RIGHT UP WITH NO PROBLEMS. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH ONLINE THROUGH MULTIPLE NISSAN TITAN FORUMS IT CAME TOP MY ATTENTION THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN KNOWN ABOUT BY OWNERS FOR SOME TIME. THE INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE (IPDM) IN THE TRUCK WERE FAULTING CAUSING THE ECM RELAY ON THE TRUCK TO STOP WORKING. THE SHORT TERM FIX FOR THIS WAS TO REPLACE THE RELAY. THE LONG TERM FIX FOR THIS IS TO REPLACE THE IPDM. SO I REPLACED THE IPDM AND HAVE NOT SEEN A PROBLEM SINCE. WHEN I WENT TO THE PARTS COUNTER AT KORUM NISSAN IN PUYALLUP TO PICK UP MY $178 PART I ASKED HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE ORDERED THIS PART. I WAS TOLD BY THERE PARTS REP MIKE THAT HE HAS SOLD A LOT OF THESE UNITS FOR VARIOUS REASONS. HE SAID IT WAS A COMMON KNOWN ISSUE BY THE PARTS REPS AND THE SERVICE REPS. WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IS HOW SUCH A THING COULD BE KNOWN SO WELL BUT NO SAFETY RECALL HAS HAPPENED. MY PROBLEMS WERE RELATIVELY MINOR COMPARED TO OTHERS WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED SUCH PROBLEMS AT HIGH SPEEDS WHERE DEATH OR INJURY COULD OCCUR. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
THE ISSUE I AM HAVING IS WITH MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN. WHEN IT GETS COLD OUT, ALL OF THE DOOR HANDLE FREEZE AND WON'T OPEN. IF YOU ARE LUCKY AFTER A FEW HOURS AND YOU DO GET IT OPEN, YOU CAN'T GET THEM SHUT. SEVERAL TIMES I HAD TO TIE THE SEAT BELT AROUND THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE IN ADDITION TO HOLDING THE DOOR CLOSE SO I COULD GET HOME. I TOOK MY CAR TO RICART NISSAN AND THEY SAID IT WILL $1000 TO FIX ALL 4 DOORS. SO, I CONTACTED NISSAN DIRECTLY AND THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET INJURED AND/OR KILLED. *TR
