REAR DIFFERENTIAL STARTED TO POP AND BIND WHILE TURNING UNDER SLIGHT THROTTLE. IT OCCURRED EVERY TIME I TURNED. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE WHOLE REAR AXLE UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. I WISH IT WERE A REAL FIX AND NOT WAITING GAME UNTIL IT FAILS AGAIN. *TR

REAR AXLE SEALS DEFECTIVE. LEAKING IS BAD WHEREAS IT IS COVERING BRAKES. I HAVE HAD IT CHECKED TWICE BY 2 SEPARATE MECHANICS AND THE DEALER AND IT WAS VERIFIED. I ALSO CONDUCTED MY OWN PERSONAL SURVEY AND FOUND THAT 3 OUT OF FIVE TITAN AND ARMADAS OWNERS HAD TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE INTERIOR LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT CONTROL PANEL FAILED REPEATEDLY. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE ELECTRICAL FAILURES 38 TIMES. THE OVER DRIVE WHICH IS ELECTRICALLY BOLTED BEHIND THE TRANSMISSION UNIT FAILED TO ENGAGE AND AS A CONSEQUENCE THE VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO SHIFT INTO GEAR. A TECHNICIAN FROM AN AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE WIRING HARNESS WHICH HAS NOT SUFFICIENTLY REMEDIED THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE HAS EXCEEDED ITS WARRANTY AND THE CONTACT WOULD BE LIABLE FOR THE REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT PROVIDE HIM WITH ANY ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 500 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 57,000.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
PURCHASED A NEW NISSAN TITAN IN 2/2005. HAD THE FRONT BRAKES REPLACED AT 25,000 UNDER WARRANTY WHEN BEGAN TO FEEL VIBRATION IN STEERING WHEEL WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES. PRESENTLY I HAVE 57,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK AND THE SAME VIBRATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES IS HAPPENING AGAIN. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO LOCAL DEALER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT I NEEDED A UPDATED TORQUE MEMBER KIT AND NEW FRONT PADS AND BRAKES FOR MY TRUCK AT A COST OF $756.59 BECAUSE THE TRUCK WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID TO TAKE MY COMPLIANT TO THE FACTORY. I HAVE CALLED REPEATEDLY TO THE FACTORY AND AM STILL WAITING FOR A CALL BACK. DRIVING MY TRUCK IS UNSAFE AND I AM RISKING MY LIFE EVERYDAY I GET INTO IT TO DRIVE TO AND FROM WORK. MY MAJOR COMPLIANT WITH THIS ISSUE IS THAT IT IS NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE, IT IS A MANUFACTURED DEFECT IN THE TORQUE MEMBER KIT AND FRONT BRAKES AND I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKING ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN WITH 70,000 MILES. THIS IS ABSURD THIS TRUCKS REAR AXLE SHOULDN'T BE LEAKING ALREADY. I DON'T EVEN PULL OR HAUL ANYTHING HEAVY IN THIS TRUCK. ITS ONLY DRIVING IN TOWN NOT OFF ROAD. I WAS GIVEN A QUOTE OF $750 TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THE SELS ARE ONLY $25. THEN AN EXTRA CHARGE OF $100 TO REPLACE THE DIFFERENTIAL FLUID. FLUID COSTS $7. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE AND ALOT OF PEOPLE WITH TITANS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE BAD THING IS IF THE LEAKING FLUID GET ON THE BRAKE ROTORS AND PADS YOUR BRAKES COULD FAIL CAUSING INJURIES TO MYSELF , MY FAMILY AND OTHER PEOPLE IF THEY WERE TO GO OUT. *TR

POWER TRAIN
I OBSERVED A LEAKING REAR SEAL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF MY TRUCKS REAR AXLE. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER GETTING A NEW DIFFERENTIAL. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN STATED IT WAS DIFFERENTIAL FLUID. THE DIFFERENTIAL GETS TOO HOT AND THE PRESSURE OF THE HEATED LIQUID FORCES THE SEAL AT THE END OF THE AXLE TO FAIL. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT A NEW DIFFERENTIAL HAD BEEN DESIGNED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND WOULD BE INSTALLED ON MY TRUCK WHEN THE NEW PARTS ARRIVED. THIS SLICK FLUID COULD HAVE IMPACTED BRAKING ON THIS TRUCK DUE TO THE REAR DISC BRAKE ROTORS BEING EXPOSED. I CAUGHT THE LEAK EARLY AND NO FLUID HAD CONTACTED THE ROTORS. *TR

POWER TRAIN
I HEAR A CLUNK FROM THE REAR END WHENEVER I SHIFT FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, KIND OF LIKE IF A U-JOINT WAS GOING OUT. I ALSO HEAR A LOW PITCH WHINE AT ACCELERATION 50-60 MPH, BUT DON'T HEAR IT UPON DECELERATION. I ALSO HAVE A REAR AXEL LEAK ON PASSENGER SIDE, AND NOTICED THAT MY REAR DIFFS PAINT IS PEELING WHICH LOOKS TO BE FROM EXCESSIVE HEAT. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
THE TAILPIPE FELL OFF OF MY TRUCK. RESULTING IN THE HOT EXHAUST TO BE VENTED ONTO A REAR WIRING HARNESS AND THUS MELTING IT. ALONG WITH THE MELTED WIRING HARNESSES, THE ECM AND MASS AIRFLOW SENSOR WERE SHORTED OUT AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS WILL BE OVER $2000 TO FIX AND WILL BE PAID FOR STRAIGHT OUT OF MY POCKET. THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER EXHAUST BECAUSE IT SUPPOSEDLY IS A REGULARLY MAINTAINED PART. THIS TRUCK IS A 2WD MODEL WITH 305/50X20 WHEELS/TIRES , SO IT OBVIOUSLY IS NOT USED FOR OFF-ROAD PURPOSES NOR HAS IT BEEN USED TO TOW ANYTHING. WHEN THE TAILPIPE BROKE, THE TRUCK WAS BEING DRIVEN DOWN A SMOOTH BLACK TOP HIGHWAY AND NOTHING WAS RAN OVER IN THE ROAD SUCH AS AN ANIMAL OR DEBRIS THAT WOULD CAUSE THE TAILPIPE TO FALL OFF. I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK USED BUT WITH ONLY 30K MILES ON IT AND ONLY DROVE IT 1500 MILES SINCE PURCHASING IT. *TR

EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN TITAN. FIVE MINUTES AFTER THE CONTACT STARTED THE VEHICLE, HE NOTICED SMOKE UNDERNEATH THE HOOD. HE SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE AND DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY DISCOVERED THAT THE COOLANT WIRES, FUSE BOX WIRES, HARNESS WIRES, AND COOLANT UNIT/COMBO SWITCH WERE MELTED AND FUSED TOGETHER. THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE COOLING FAN AND THE WIRING HARNESS. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 64,000. UPDATED 062909 *BF THE DEALER STATED THE AC CONDENSER FAN MOTOR HOUSING RUSTED CAUSING THE MOTOR TO SEIZE AND OVERHEAT, LEADING TO THE WIRES BURNING OUT AND SHORTENING. THE CONSUMER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL FOR THE PROBLEM HE HAD ALREADY EXPERIENCED. NISSAN INFORMED THE CONSUMER THE RECALL WAS ONLY FOR THE CONDENSER FAN PORTION OF THE REPAIR. UPDATED 07/02/09.*JB
