2005 NISSAN TITAN REAR AXLE SEALS AND DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE. THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED ON MY NISSAN TITAN ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO. NOW I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE REAR AXLE SEALS LEAKING. ACCORDING TO THE LOCAL DEALERS THIS SEAMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH ALL NISSAN TITANS FROM 2004-2007 WITH THE SEALS AND DIFFERENTIALS BREAKING DOWN. *TR

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. 57K MILES. FOUR TIME THIS WEEK (WEEK OF 21 JULY) THE ABS SYSTEM HAS GONE OUT. I HAVE TO STOP THE VEHICLE AND SHUT IT OFF AND THEN RESTART TO HAVE ABS COME BACK TO LIFE. WHEN IT GOES OUT THERE IS A CLUNKING SOUND WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKES, AND THE BRAKE LIGHT STAYS ON. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN A YEAR THIS HAS GONE OUT AND I HAVE HAD TO TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALER. THIS IS A SAFETY OF DRIVING ISSUE, AND SHOULD BE PERMANENTLY FIXED BY NISSAN. *TR

I JUST HAD A MAJOR REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN TRUCK, WHICH WILL COST ME AROUND $3500 TO REPAIR. I'VE NOTED ON SEVERAL WEBSITES THAT THERE ARE MANY OWNERS WHO'VE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS MODEL TRUCK AND ALL REPAIRS SHOULD BE PAID BY THE MANUFACTURER! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DIFFERENTIAL FAILED. THERE WERE NO RECALLS AND THE MANUFACTURER REFUSED TO ASSUME LIABILITY FOR ANY REPAIRS BECAUSE THE WARRANTY RECENTLY EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE LESS THAN 66,000.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
COLUMN SHIFTER CAUSES DAMAGE TO WIRING HARNESS OF THE MANUAL MODE TRANSMISSION BUTTON. WHEN SHIFTING VEHICLE INTO DRIVE, COLUMN HITS WIRING HARNESS, AND OVER TIME CAUSES WIRING TO THE TRANSMISSION MANUAL MODE BUTTON TO BREAK. ONCE THIS BREAKS, THERE IS NO MEANS TO DOWN SHIFT VEHICLE, CAUSING A HAZARD ESPECIALLY WHEN TRAVELING ROADS WHERE THERE ARE ELEVATION CHANGES. WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE MANUAL MODE BUTTON FAILURE BY RESEARCHING NISSAN TITAN FORUMS (CLUB TITAN AND TITAN TALK). UPON REMOVING STEERING COLUMN SHROUD IMMEDIATELY NOTICED CHAFFING OF THE WIRING HARNESS, AND THE BROKEN WIRE. CONTACTED NISSAN, WAS GIVEN FILE NUMBER 6550464, NISSAN WAS NOT CONCERNED WITH THIS ISSUE DUE TO THE AGE (CURRENTLY 4 YEARS) OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

REAR END STARTED CLUNKING ON TURNS, AND WITHIN 1 DAY WORSENED TO THE POINT IT HARDLY DROVE. NEVER BOUND UP COMPLETELY, BUT HAD IT COULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME ISSUE. I HAVE IT AT THE SHOP RIGHT NOW AND WAS TOLD THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL AND AXLE NEED TO BE REPLACED. NISSAN HAS MADE CHANGES TO THERE REAR DIFF TO HELP THE PROBLEM, BUT NOTHING TO CORRECT ORIGINAL BAD PARTS. PLEASE HELP, SOMEONE WILL GET HURT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN AT APPROX. 45 MILES AN HOUR THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL LOCKED UP AND I WAS FISH TAILING ALL OVER THE ROAD AND WAS FORTUNATE TO HAVE NO HIT SOMEONE OR CRASHED THE TRUCK. 3RD MEMBER SPIT THE DRIVELINE RIGHT OUT AND NOW MY MECHANIC IS TELLING ME NEARLY $4,000.00 TO FIX IT. I ONLY HAVE 94,000 MILES ON IT. NISSAN SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. *TR

1. THERE WERE NO KNOW EVENTS APPARENT BEFORE THE FAILURE. 2. REAR AXLE SEAL HAS FAILED ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN LE 4X4 AT 57,000 MILES. AXLE LUBE IS EVERYWHERE ON DRIVERS SIDE RIM, TIRE AND BRAKE COMPONENTS. THERE IS ALSO NOTICEABLE BLOW BY ON THE TAILGATE AND I'M SURE LUBE HAS BEEN DISSIPATED TO VEHICLES THAT HAVE BEEN BEHIND ME ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS WILL LEAD TO A FAILURE OF BRAKE EFFECTIVENESS AND VISION ISSUES WITH FOLLOWING VEHICLES. 3. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING THE TRUCK IN THE SHOP TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

TOOK 2005 NISSAN TITAN PICKUP WITH 36,600 MILES TO DEALER FOR REAR AXLE SEAL LEAK. THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH NISSAN!! THIS HAPPENS REGULARLY. DEALER REPLACED ,BEARING ,SPACER, SNAP RING, SEAL UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. 5 YEARS OR 60,000 MI. THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM !! I THINK THEY SHOULD OFFER A LONG EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR FREE TO TITAN OWNERS!! *TR

I NOTICED A KNOCK WHEN I WAS TAKING HARD LEFT TURNS. TRIED DRIVING IT TO WORK A FEW DAYS LATER AND ON MY WAY IN TO WORK (ANOTHER LEFT TURN) I HEARD A LOUD POP ALMOST LIKE I HIT A POT HOLE OR SOMETHING, BUT THERE WAS NOTHING ON THE ROAD. THAT NIGHT ON MY WAY HOME(APPROX. 1 MILE) TOOK MY FINAL LEFT TURN - LOUD CRACKING NOISE AND TIRES SQUEALED-ALSO SLIPPED OUT OF GEAR COMPLETELY FOR A FEW SECONDS. MECHANIC SAID THE SPYDER GEARS IN THE REAR DIFF. HAVE LOST THEIR TEETH. NISSAN WILL ONLY SELL THE WHOLE DIFF. WHICH COSTS $2000 PLUS TAX AND LABOR. NOT COOL. THERE WERE NO ACCIDENTS OR PROPERTY DAMAGE ONLY BECAUSE I WAS IN MY CONDOS DRIVEWAY AND THERE WERE NO CARS IN THE PARKING LOT. *TR

REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE AFTER HIGHWAY DRIVING ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AT AN EXIT DUE TO UNEXPECTED LUNGE OF VEHICLE AFTER COMING TO A STOP AND CONTINUING. NISSAN CLAIMED THIS WAS COMMON WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR REPAIRS. THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WAS REPLACED WITH THE SAME TYPE AS BEFORE. *TR

SEATS
1. THIS IS PIGGY BACKING ON TSB #05092; NHTSA ITEM #10017420. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS ISN'T A RECALL. I KNOW NISSAN DOESN'T WANT A RECALL BECAUSE THEY JUST GAVE ME A QUOTE FOR $600 TO FIX THEIR DEFECT!!! AND WHERE DOES SAFETY START INSIDE THE VEHICLE? THE SEATS! SO I'M BASICALLY ASKING NHTSA TO UPGRADE THIS TSB TO A RECALL. 2. THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT RATTLES AND MOVES CONSTANTLY. CONSEQUENCES I DON'T EVEN WANT TO THINK ABOUT IF WE GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND MY FAMILY IS IN THE TRUCK. LOSE SEAT; NOT GOOD. 3. I HAVE A QUOTE THAT SHOWS THE "SEAT ADJUSTER" NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. AND IT'S FOR THE LOW LOW COST OF $600. AGAIN, NO WONDER NISSAN WOULD RATHER SLIDE THIS THROUGH ON TSB RATHER THAN RECALL. THE SEAT HAS DONE THIS AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER SO THE 1/1/07 DATE IS NOT EXACT (I BOUGHT THE TRUCK IN 2005). ALSO, THIS REPAIR IS NOT COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. I TRAVEL VERY FREQUENTLY SO I MISSED GETTING MY TRUCK IN UNDER THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY, WHICH EXPIRED IN AUG-08. THANKS! *TR
