STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR:HINGE AND ATTACHMENTS
I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN P/U IN WHICH THE DOOR HANDLE CABLES GET FROZEN IN THE WINTER MONTHS. I FEEL THAT THIS IS HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THAT NISSAN HAS FAILED TO ADDRESS AS A RECALL! I CANNOT GET IN OR OUT OF MY VEHICLE EXCEPT THROUGH THE DOOR WINDOWS WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I HAVE ALREADY HAD THIS VEHICLE IN TO MY DEALERSHIP ON 2/15/08 TO GET REPAIRED, BUT THEY HAD TO ORDER OTHER PARTS THAT THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW THAT THEY NEEDED. THEY DIDN'T ORDER THEM OVERNIGHT AND THERE WAS NO SENSE OF URGENCY ON THEIR PART TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM! IT STILL IS NOT REPAIRED. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH
I OWN A 2005 NISSAN TITAN CREW CAB AND WHEN THE TEMPS DROP BELOW FREEZING THE DOOR HANDLES OR LATCHES FREEZE UP AND YOU CAN NOT SHUT THE DOOR, YOU HAVE TO HOLD THEM CLOSED WITH YOUR HAND WHILE DRIVING. THERE WAS NOTHING THAT I DID LEADING UP THE THE FAILURE OTHER THAN MAYBE WASH MY TRUCK. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY $500 OUT OF POCKET FOR SOMETHING THAT COULD END UP KILLING A CHILD. I TOOK A FRIEND OF MINES CHILD TO SCHOOL TODAY AND THE DOOR OPENED AND WHEN I CLOSED IT EVIDENTLY DID NOT LATCH BECAUSE THE CABLE WAS FROZE UP. GOOD THING THAT HE WAS IN A CAR SEAT AND BUCKLED IN CAUSE WHEN I TURNED THE CORNER THE DOOR FLEW OPEN. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND SOMEONE NEEDS TO STEP IN AND DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP, TIRES, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS
PURCHASED 2005 NISSAN TITAN TRUCK ON 2/1/2005. ON 4/21/05 WITH 6,000 MILES, TRUCK SHOOK/SHIMMIED WHEN APPLYING BRAKES. UNDER WARRANTY, NISSAN DEALER REPLACED FRONT PADS AND RESURFACED THE FRONT ROTORS. ON 6/23/05 WITH 11,000 MILES, TRUCK AGAIN SHOOK/SHIMMIED WHEN APPLYING BRAKES. STILL UNDER WARRANTY, NISSAN DEALER REPLACED FRONT AND REAR PADS AND ROTORS AGAIN! ON 1/14/08, NEEDED TO REPLACE THE CRAPPY GOODYEAR WRANGLER SR-A (P265/70R18) TIRES THAT CAME WITH THE TRUCK (ALSO HAD 3 FLAT TIRES) EVEN THOUGH I ROTATED THEM REGULARLY (LESS THAN 40,000 MILES). TODAY, THE TIRE CENTER INDICATED I NEEDED NEW BRAKES. CALLED NISSAN DEALER AND AM AGAIN TAKING THE TRUCK INTO SERVICE TO CORRECT AND GET NEW ROTORS/PADS. BY THE WAY, THE WARRANTY ON MY TRUCK FOR THIS REPAIR RUNS OUT ON 2/1/08. GOING FORWARD, I WILL HAVE TO BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY. THIS STINKS! HOW COME THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL AND CORRECTIVE PROCEDURE IMPLEMENTED? $37,000 VEHICLE! *TR

POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY:AXLE SHAFT:SEAL
I PURCHASED THIS 2005 NISSAN TITAN NEW. DURING A RECENT OIL CHANGE AND SERVICE AT 34,150 MILES I NOTICED FLUID LEAKING ONTO THE BOTH SIDES OF THE REAR BRAKE ROTOR ASSEMBLIES. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS BRAKE FLUID BUT UPON CLOSER EXAMINATION I DISCOVERED IT WAS GEAR LUBE FROM THE REAR AXLE. IT WAS LEAKING PAST THE SEALS AND DOWN THE BACKING PLATES AND DRIPPING ONTO THE WHEEL AND SOME OF THAT OIL BEING SLUNG ONTO THE BRAKE ROTORS THEMSELVES. I STOPPED DRIVING THE TRUCK SINCE I FELT THIS IS NOW A SAFETY ISSUE AND CALLED THE DEALER. THEY ADVISED ME TO BRING TRUCK IN FOR INSPECTION WHICH I DID ON 1/3/08 AT 34,206 MILES. THEY CONFIRMED SEALS ARE LEAKING AND ORDERED PARTS. I ASKED THEM TO MAKE A NOTE ON THE SERVICE ORDER THAT I HAVE STOPPED DRIVING TRUCK UNLESS NEEDED. THEY THEN CALLED AND TOLD ME PARTS ARE IN AND TRUCK WAS BROUGHT IN FOR REPAIR ON 1/14/08 AT 34,361 MILES. THE PARTS THAT WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY ARE AS FOLLOWS; QTY-2 P/N:43070-7S200 AXLE SPACER, QTY-2 P/N:40210-7S210 REAR BEARING, QTY-2 P/N:43252-7S200 OIL SEAL, QTY-2 P/N:01541-0001U SNAP-RING AND QTY-1 999MP-DF100P SYNTHETIC DIFF FLUID. I AM VERY HAPPY THAT NISSAN REPAIRED AND COVERED THIS UNDER WARRANTY. BUT, I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS TYPE OF FAILURE OCCURED AT SUCH LOW MILEAGE. *TR

SEAT BELTS:REAR/OTHER
REAR SEAT BELTS (LEFT & RIGHT) HAVE NO HEIGHT ADJUSTMENTS WHICH CAUSE MY GRANDMOTHER & MOTHER (BOTH ARE SHORT ABOUT 5 FT TALL) TO NOT USE THE SEAT BELT CORRECTLY OR NOT TO USE IT AT ALL BECAUSE THE BELT IS RUBBING THEIR NECKS CAUSING SLIGHT RED BURNS ON THEIR NECKS EVERY TIME THEY USE IT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN CREW CAB. WHEN IT BECOMES REALLY COLD IN THE SINGLE DIGITS, THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR DOES NOT OPEN WHEN THE RELEASE BUTTON IS RELEASED ON THE REMOTE OR ON THE DOOR PANEL. THE CONTACT CAN HEAR IT CLICKING, BUT HE CANNOT OPEN THE DOOR. HE CAN PULL OUT THE HANDLE, BUT IT DOES NOT DISENGAGE THE LOCKING MECHANISM. THE FAILURE IS CONSTANT AND DEPENDENT UPON THE TEMPERATURE. THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND THE DEALER STATED THAT THE CONTACT WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 49,200 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,150.

POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY
AT 16,000 FIRST AXLE SEAL LEAK. THEN AT 74000 MILES SECOND LEAK. FIRST WAS FIXED BY NISSAN AND SECOND LEAK WAS TOLD COULD NOT BE FIXED,COMPLETE REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAD TO BE REPLACED OIL GETTING ON BRAKES AND REARS THAT COULD POSSIBLY BREAK EASILY COULD BE A SAFETY CONCERN. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH SOME TITAN TRUCKS. THIS IS THE FIRST REAR DIFFERENTIAL I HAD GO IN 48 YEARS OF DRIVING AND ATTRIBUTE THIS TO A BAD DESIGNED AND COST CUTTING BY NISSAN. *TR
