SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE APPLYING BRAKE PRESSURE AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT DOWN TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS SEEN BY THE DEALER. THE ROTORS WERE TURNED, HOWEVER THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ROTORS AND EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE BRAKES. ADDITIONALLY, THE TRACTION, ABS, AND DIFFERENTIAL LOCK LIGHT ILLUMINATED WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE DEALER COULD NOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE ILLUMINATION.

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT
I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN 4X4 THAT SEEMS TO BE BUGGED BY PARTS FAILURES (GREMLINS AS THE DEALER LIKES TP CALL THEM). THE FIRST PROBLEM (BRAKES) HAPPENED AT ABOUT 2 WEEKS OLD OR 1000 MILES. THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY FIXED THE PROBLEM(SO THEY SAID). ABOUT 1 MONTH LATER THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED. AGAIN THE DEALER FIXED IT. AT ABOUT 5 MONTHS OLD (8000 MILES) THE REAR END SEEMS TO FALL APART. WHEN I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM. THAT WHEN THEY FIX IT, THEY WILL PUT THE UPGRADED REAR END IN, WHICH TOOK ABOUT 2 WEEKS TO HAVE DONE. AT ABOUT 7 MONTHS OLD (14000 MILES) WHILE ON VACATION IN FLORIDA, THE STEERING COLUMN DECIDED TO FALL APART, CAUSING ME TO LOOSE STEERING AND ALMOST CRASH. NOW I HAD TO BRING IT TO A NEW DEALER DOWN IN FLORIDA (WHO DID NOT WANT TO TAKE THE TRUCK IN FOR REPAIR, BUT AFTER A LONG CONVERSATION WITH NISSAN OF NORTH AMERICA TOOK IT IN, FOR 3 WEEKS TO FIX THE PROBLEM). NOW AFTER 10 MONTHS (16000 MILES) OF OWNING THE TRUCK, THE REAR END HAS BROKEN AGAIN. IT IS AT THE DEALER ONCE AGAIN, WHERE I WAS TOLD THE PARTS ARE (VOR ORDERED) BACK ORDERED WITH NO DATE OF ARRIVAL. I LOVE THIS TRUCK BUT JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ANYMORE. *NM

TIRES, TIRES:TREAD/BELT
I HAVE A 2006 NISSAN TITAN KING CAB. IT HAS GOODYEAR WRANGLER TIRES SRA 265 70 R18 ON IT. IN THE FIRST TWO TIMES I HAVE HAD IT IN LIGHT RAIN ON GOOD HIGHWAYS IT HYDROPLANES HORRIBLY AT MEDIUM SPEEDS{45 TO 55 MPH}. I HAVE NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF THIS VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES IN LIGHT RAIN. THE TIRES ON THIS VEHICLE DO NOTHING TO CHANNEL AWAY WATER IN MY OPINION. I WENT INTO A SLIGHT CURVE IN THE RAIN AND THE VEHICLE JUST WANTED TO GO STRAIGHT. THE MATCH OF THIS TIRE WITH THIS TRUCK IS GOING TO KILL SOMEONE. THE TIRE OPTION LISTED LATER IN THIS COMPLAINT DO NOT GIVE GOODYEAR WRANGLER AS AN OPTION. SO I HAD TO PUT IN SOMETHING TO PROCEED ,PLEASE NOTE THIS. *NM

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, STRUCTURE
CAN NOT READ COMPUTER-GENERATED INFORMATION IN DAYLIGHT, CLOUDY OR OTHERWISE. INCLUDES GEAR INDICATOR, TOW MODE, MILEAGE, AIR CONDITIONING, ETC. HAD AN ARMY LT. COL. ON HIS KNEES TRYING TO READ THE GAUGES AS WE WERE DRIVING THROUGH LAS VEGAS, NV. PRIOR TO THIS TRIP OUT WEST, ALL OF MY DRIVING HAD BEEN LOCAL AND INFREQUENT (I USE A MORE ECONOMICAL CAR FOR IN-TOWN/LOCAL DRIVING), AND THE SPEEDOMETER IS NOT COMPUTER GENERATED. THIS IS UNSAFE AND I DO NOT WISH TO BE KILLED TRYING TO SEE THE DASH INSTRUMENTS. I HAVE DRIVEN WITH THE RHEOSTAT TURNED ALL THE WAY UP, WITH NO EFFECT/BENEFIT. I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK TO TOW MY TRAILER AND TRAVEL. I AM UNSAFE DURING DAYLIGHT AND TOWING A TRAILER AT NIGHT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE NOR PRACTICAL. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER (NISSAN) WHO DIRECTED ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL DEALER (JENKINS IN LAKELAND, FL). WHILE THE HEAD OF SERVICE (MR. DUNKIN) AGREED HE COULD NOT READ THE INFORMATION ON A CLOUDY DAY, HIS ONLY ADVICE WAS TO TURN THE RHEOSTAT ALL THE WAY UP, WHICH WAS ALREADY DONE. HE SAID NOTHING COULD BE DONE. DID NOT GIVE ME ANY PAPERWORK TO PROVE I WAS THERE. CONDITION IS ON-GOING AND IS VERY DANGEROUS. A PERSON COULD EASILY TAKE FULL ATTENTION OFF OF DRIVING TO TRY TO READ THE GAUGES. THIS COULD AND WOULD CAUSE ACCIDENTS. THE NUMBER OF FAILURES IS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IN DAYLIGHT. *JB

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT
REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE (2005 NISSAN TITAN, 12,800 MILES) - THERE WERE VERY FEW SIGNS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE OF THE READ DIFFERENTIAL. I NOTICED SOME LOUD THUDS COMING FROM THE DRIVETRAIN AS I ACCELERATED. THEN WITHIN ABOUT 0.5 MILES OF DRIVING, THE THUDS WERE LOUDER AND MUCH MORE FREQUENT, AND THE TRUCK WAS NOTICEABLY STRUGGLING TO MOVE. I IMMEDIATELY PARKED IT AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY ARE REPLACING THE REAR AXLE ASSEMBLY (THE DAMAGE IS IN THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL, BUT APPARENTLY NISSAN JUST REPLACES THE ENTIRE REAR AXLE ASSEMBLY). THE AXLE ASSEMBLY IS BACK ORDERED FOR 2 WEEKS. *JB

POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY, POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT
PULLED UP TO STOP SIGN WITH NO PREVIOUS INDICATION OF PROBLEM. WHEN I PROCEEDED TO TURN LEFT, THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL STARTED MAKING LOUD CLUNKING NOISES AND SLIPPED IN AND OUT OF ENGAGEMENT. I WAS ABLE TO PUT TRUCK IN 4 WHEEL DRIVE TO GET IT TO DEALERSHIP. *JB THE PROBLEM HAS NOT YET BEEN CORRECTED AS NISSAN STATES I NEED A NEW REAR DIFFERENTIAL AND THEY ARE ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER. THEY CAN GIVE ME NO ESTIMATE AS TO WHEN I WILL GET MY VEHICLE BACK.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ON 03/27/2006 DRIVING TO WORK IN MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN [XXX] PICKUP ACCELERATED ON ITS ON. I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT MERGING IN TO TRAFFIC WHEN IT ACCELERATED FORWARD BY IT SELF AND WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. WHEN THIS ACCRUED I TRIED TO PUT IT IN TO NEUTRAL, STILL NOTHING HAPPEN, EVEN WITH BOTH OF MY FEET BARRING DOWN ON THE BRAKE THE TIRES WHERE BURNING RUBBER AND I WAS STILL MOVING SLOWLY FORWARD. FINALLY I TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND IT SHUT DOWN, I WAITED A FEW MOMENTS AND TRIED TO START THE ENGINE AGAIN. AT THIS TIME IT DID IT AGAIN AND TURN THE ENGINE OFF AGAIN, WAITED A FEW MORE MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN, AT THIS TIME IT STARTED CORRECTLY AND I DROVE IT DIRECTLY TO KRAFT NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR THERE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. KRAFT NISSAN TOOK THE AFTERNOON TO LOOK OVER THE TRUCK, AT AROUND 3:01 PM THE SERVICE WRITER CALLED AND SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND MY TRUCK IS READY TO BE PICKED UP. I SAID THAT THE PROBLEM IS REAL AND THAT THEY NEED TO FIND IT, THEY SAID IF PROBLEM CAN'T BE SEEN THEY CAN'T FIX IT. I TALK WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER AND THEN CALLED NISSAN AND WAS BASICALLY TOLD THE SAME THING. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND IF THE PROBLEM HAPPENS AGAIN THEY CAN TRY TO SOLVE AT THAT TIME. ALSO WAS TOLD THAT MY FOOT COULD HAVE BEEN ON THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDAL AT THE SAME TIME, TOLD HIM THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE BOTH OF MY FEET WHERE PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR BOARD TO STOP THE TRUCK. *JB [XXX] UPDATED 07/16/2012 *JS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
