REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE. ATTEMPTING TO CROSS TRAFFIC WHEN REAR DIFFERENTIAL BROKE INTERNALLY AND HAD TO HAVE VEHICLE TOWED FROM SCENE (NEARLY HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC). THIS IS A KNOWN CONSUMER PROBLEM, THAT HAS BEEN SERIOUSLY DENIED BY THE MANUFACTURER. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED OF HAVING THESE UNITS REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES!! THE POTENTIAL EXISTS TO HAVE THE REAR WHEELS TO BECOME LOCKED UP IN THE EVENT OF A FAILURE!!!!!! WHY HAS NO INVESTIGATION BEEN OPENED?? SEVERAL CONSUMERS HAVE GONE TO AFTERMARKET EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT BECAUSE OF THE HIGH FAILURE RATE. THIS PROBLEM IS HAPPENING IN 2004-2006 MODEL YEAR VEHICLES!!!! *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
NOISE IN CONDENSER FAN MOTOR. THIS IS 3RD TIME SINCE PURCHASE OF TITAN IN APRIL 2006 THAT I HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK TO DEALER. 1ST TIME, REPLACE A/C CONDENSER, 2ND TIME IN 2007 REPLACE COMPRESSOR, 2ND CONDENSER AND KEPT VEHICLE FOR 3 WEEKS. THIS SUMMER THE CONDENSER MOTOR. THEY SAID HAD RECALL ON IT AND PATCHED A SECTION OF THE MOTOR WITH A/C TAPE AND WRAPPED THE WIRING WITH TAPE AND PUT A WEDGE BETWEEN MOTOR AND BRACKET. MY WIFE WAITED TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AND 4 HOURS LATER WENT HOME. I WORK OUT OF TOWN AND I CHECKED THE INTERNET FOR RECALLS AND FOUND MORE THAN JUST THIS PROBLEM WITH THE TRUCK BUT, HAVE NOT BEEN TOLD BY NISSAN OR THE DEALER OF THESE OTHER RECALLS. THE LAST TIME MY TRUCK WAS KEPT FOR 3 WEEKS I REPORTED TO NISSAN THE PROBLEMS AND WAS CUT OFF WHEN I WAS GIVING MY COMPLAINT TO CUSTOMER SERVICE {?}. NEVER HEARD FROM THEM OR THE LOCAL DEALER SPARKS NISSAN.OH YES, I ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE BATTERY REPLACED IN MARCH 2008 AS IT DIED AND WOULD NOT HOLD A CHARGE AND IT WAS ON A WEEKEND AND HAD TO BE REPAIRED BEFORE I LEFT TOWN AND NO WAY FOR MY WIFE TO GO. THE DEALER OWNER HERE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT HIS CUSTOMERS AFTER THE SELL AND EACH TIME SOMEONE ASK ME HOW I LIKE MY TRUCK; I TELL THEM HOW WE HAVE BEEN TREATED AND WHAT PROBLEMS WE HAVE HAD. I SUGGEST STRONGLY THAT THE HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMIN. CONTACT THESE MANUFACTURES AND ENFORCE THE RECALLS. SOME OF THESE CAN BE FATAL IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS ALL UNACCEPTABLE FOR THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT IS SPENT ON THE PURCHASE OF A VEHICLE. *TR

EQUIPMENT
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, SMOKE ENTERED THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE VENTS. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED PRIOR TO THE FAILURE; HOWEVER, THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL STOPPED WORKING. THE DEALER COULD NOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE, BUT THEY REPAIRED THE VEHICLE ACCORDING TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 08V284000 (EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL:AIR CONDITIONER). THE DEALER STATED THAT THE AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR CENTER THAT HAD PREVIOUSLY PERFORMED THE REPAIR CAUSED THE WIRES TO MELT AROUND THE FAN. THE AUTO CENTER REPRESENTATIVE (WHO WAS ACTUALLY THE ONE FILING THE COMPLAINT) STATED THAT THE RECALL REMEDY DID NOT ACTUALLY REPAIR THE ENTIRE FAILURE. THE REPRESENTATIVE FURTHER STATED THAT THE FAN REPAIR WAS INSUFFICIENT AND THE RECALL NOTICE NEVER DESCRIBED WHAT COULD OVERHEAT. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 28,400 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 28,300.
