The exaust manifolds cracked and is letting fumes into the cabin. I bought the truck about 2 weeks ago from a private dealer. The cracked manifolds began to leak a few days ago and I truthfully believe it should be covered by Nissan

These units are being sold at various retailers and deceptively marketed. I purchased one with the warning label defaced. The listing stated it was a bStock item due to cosmetic damage otherwise fully functional. It was only after receiving it did I find the truth of the 2 NHTSA recalls in 2019. https://bigjeffaudio.com/products/open-box-ioxus-12v-group-31-smart-power-bluetooth-car-audio-ultra-capacitor After I brought it to their attention and a little convincing, did they add the disclaimer at the bottom of the listing. To be transparent I purchased the same item, through that specific vendor on eBay. I did capture the listing before they added the disclaimer. Ultimately they refunded the purchase and I sent the item back. The photos explicitly omit the "warning" that has large print ultracapacitor and small print, "follow this link to the the actual warning" Going further the manufacturer went as far as to post a video of an employee throwing the battery, showing that it is completely safe and instructs the viewer to hit up a distributor and go buy one now. I have captured that as well https://youtu.be/-EMm-z_WcPY As I understand it these have been sold for over a year. Big Jeff audio just added a disclaimer. It is one thing to inform the customer and quite another to sell to an unsuspecting person.

The gears shift rough causing the vehicle to jerk or down shifting early causing a stall when imcreasing accelaration. It is dangerous when you cant accelarate at times to avoid cars or merging on to the highway. I took it in and Nissan said this was fine and everything seemed normal.

The transfer case shifted between 4x2, 4x4H and 4x4L on its own while vehicle is driving down the road. This caused ABS and traction control failure causing the vehicle to shake and drop suddenly in speed. This is a safety issue because ABS and traction control are safety features to prevent the vehicle from losing control. Nissan Titan XD has several reported issues with transfer cases from 2016-2020 where Nissan replaced them for the owners. The problem was confirmed by Nissan to be a transfer case failure. ABS, traction control, low power mode and 4X4 error lights occurred. ABS, traction control and 4x4 error lights occurred instantly. Low power mode quickly occurred afterwards which caused the vehicle to slow down rapidly on its own. I was able to travel at low speeds with hazards on to a parking lot and towed to dealer.

Acceleration lags because vehicle does not shift correctly.This could put myself and others at risk. My truck only has 7,000 miles on it but the truck has done this since I got it brand new.

Vehicle began to rev the engine to approximately 6,000 or 7,000 RPM's. This occurred for several seconds before correcting itself. Immediately after correcting itself, the engine began to rev to the same RPM's as stated before for several seconds again. After a few seconds, there was a loud clunk sound and the entire truck learched forward aggressively. Truck was travelling approximately 20 mph in stop and go traffic. Vehicle was pulled to the side of the road and felt as if it could not get past the 1st gear/limp mode. For safety reasons, vehicle was moved to a nearby parking lot where it was parked until a tow truck was available.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
My truck just stopped in the middle of the road while driving. I could not move the steering wheel and the engine would not turn over. The gas hand was registering a quarter of a tank of fuel so I did not think that I had run out of gas. After being towed to the shop the mechanic checked the vehicle and said that it was just out of gas but the gas gauge was still registering 1/4 of a tank of gas. Gas was put in the truck and it started right up. The mechanic informed me of a recall on the 2005 nissan titans that matched what was happening to my truck. When I informed nissan they told me there is a recall but that my vin number is not included in the recall. I have had the same incident where the truck just shut off 2 more times now and this should be covered by the nissan recall since this is the exact problem that is happening to my truck that is stated in the recall and my truck is the exact year. Can someone please help me to get nissan to honor this recall for my truck? Recall ID#68290

I purchased my 2017 Nissan Titan SV in 2018 from a dealership in Conyers Georgia. I have taken great care of the truck and performed all regular and millage maintenance to the truck from day 1. I noticed in 2019, while driving on the roadway to merge onto interstate I85 that the vehicle had a lag in acceleration causing an RPM surge which delayed the vehicle from accelerating onto the interstate properly almost causing an accident. The truck would not properly get up to speed causing me to have to pull over to the side of the road and evaluate and re start the truck.The check engine light became displayed. The truck continued to display the same behavior with the surging of RPMs and drag during acceleration. I took the vehicle to Mall of Georgia Nissan, where they took the vehicle in and diagnosed it. I was advised by Nissan that they contacted Nissan Corporate to get advise on the issue and to seek a resolution, in which they performed some type of re flash of the transmission and several other transmission related fixes, but stated that the transmission was fine. I picked up the vehicle and it seemed to be running better than before, however a lag during acceleration was still noticeable. I noticed in January 2022 that the check engine light came on once again after the vehicle stalled while accelerating causing the truck to jerk and me once again pull over on the side of the road. I have been advised by my local mechanic after diagnosing the truck that there is a large amount of metal in the transmission fluid and that the vehicle will most likely need a new transmission. My truck has 122k miles and is in great shape, and also paid for with hopes to continue driving it well past 122k miles. This issue with the transmission which occurred within warranty was not properly diagnosed and fixed in 2019 causing a continuing safety hazard on the roadway. Nissan corporate is refusing to take responsibility of this issue and acknowledge the transmission issues.

Bought my 2017 Nissan Titan brand new, as soon as I drove it from the lot , check engine came on, took it to dealer and dealer fixed a recall, then at about 30,000mi check engine turned on again and they said it was some sensor for the transmission, at 99000mi before my warranty expires check engine turned on again and its pulling a code P0780 and a P0780 pending. My mechanic told me that Nissan just erased the code instead of fixing it due to warranty. And now they said that it may be a part inside the transmission and that they will the cost has to come out of my pocket when I still under warranty.

Transmission issue: *Taking off from a complete stop at a traffic light or stop sign the truck is sluggish unless I give it about 1/4 throttle then it takes off slow it feels like its not in 1st gear. This is dangerous if trying to avoid incoming traffic while turning on a busy intersection. *There's occasions at a stop the truck surges forward by itself. *While driving and trying to pass a vehicle the transmission downshifted normal then it shifts up then down again. *When shifting from park to drive the transmission clunks. *When slowing down the downshift is harsh. I have taken to the dealership 2 times their response its the nature of the transmission.

Faulty Turbo Actuator Vehicle would stall stall without check engine light in traffic. I could Cycle the key and vehicle would run again no check engine light. It did this at least 4-5 times in traffic and on freeways. Nissan also is not providing support as actuator was on back order for over 6 months. Vehicle stall I f with no warning and cycling key to restart. I replaced it and once had it repaired and vehicle still runs poorly.
