TL*- THE CONTACT TOOK THE 2004 NISSAN TITAN TO THE DEALER IN SAN ANTONIO, TX FOR SERVICE BECAUSE HE COULD HEAR NOISES COMING FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE AREA. THE DEALER STATED THAT BRAKE LINE SHEARED OFF THE FIREWALL AND WAS RUBBING AND HITTING AGAINST THE FIREWALL AND AIR CONDITIONER LINE. THEY FIXED THE FAILURE BY REPOSITIONING THE BRAKE FLUID LINE AND REATTACHING IT TO THE FIREWALL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WASN'T ANY PRIOR WARNING BEFORE FAILURE. *AK UPDATED 02/22/07. *JB

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
RUST SPOTS ON THE ROOF. PAINT CHIPS OVER 95% OF THE VEHICLES BODY. I AM NOT AWARE OF HOW THIS ISSUE PRECIPITATED AS THIS VEHICLE IS GARAGED WHEN AT HOME AND IN A SECURE PARKING LOCATION ON A MILITARY AIR BASE WHEN I AM AT WORK. I HAVE MET WITH FERMAN NISSAN SERVICE MANAGER ERIC GREEN, A FERMAN BODY SHOP PROFESSIONAL NAMED 'CHRIS' AND MR. BATTISTA, THE COLLISION CENTER DIRECTOR. ALL CONCUR THERE IS A REAL PAINT ISSUE HOWEVER THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE WAS THE DECISION MAKER ON WARRANTY REPAIRS OF WHICH HE DENIED A CLAIM. THE RUST MUST BE 'PERFORATED' THROUGH ACCORDING TO FERMAN NISSAN WHICH IT IS NOT AS YET. ALSO; I WAS TOLD IT IS 'OUT OF WARRANTY' WHICH I NOW HAVE 39K MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND THIS WAS REPORTED AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE THEN AGAIN WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR THE 32K MILES SERVICE. *JB

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY TRUCK IS EQUIPPED WITH VEHICLE DYNAMIC CONTROL (VDC). IT CUTS POWER TO THE DRIVE WHEELS IF ONE OR BOTH START TO SPIN. ALL TRUCKS OR CARS OF ITS KIND HAVE BEEN EQUIPPED WITH A SWITCH THAT THIS DEVICE CAN BE TURNED ON OR OFF DEPENDING ON THE DRIVERS SITUATION. FOR SOME REASON MY TRUCK DID NOT COME WITH THIS SWITCH, I AM A SITTING DUCK WHEN IT RAINS IF ONE TIRE SO MUCH AS SLIPS ONE REVOLUTION AS I CAN MASH THE GAS PEDAL AND NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. IN 4X4 IT DOES THE SAME THING AND ONLY IN 4X4 LO WILL THIS VDC TURN ITSELF OFF. I HAVE ASKED DEALERS MANY OF TIMES TO FIX THIS AS IT SHOULD HAVE CAME WITH THIS OPTION AND WAS SOMEHOW MISSED. I WANT IT FIXED AS I HAVE ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES B/C OF THIS. *NM

POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY:AXLE SHAFT:SEAL
I HAVE 50,000 MILES ON MY 04 TITAN CREW CAB SE AND JUST FOUND THE RIGHT REAR AXLE LEAKING OIL ALL OVER THE BRAKE AND WHEEL. I WOULD THINK THAT A NEWER TRUCK SHOULD NOT BE LEAKING OIL ON TO THE BRAKE AS THIS COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS WRECK. I WILL BE TAKING MY TRUCK TO THE SHOP THIS WEEK TO BE REPAIRED. I HAVE NOT BEEN DRIVING THE TRUCK FOR FEAR THAT IT COULD INTERFERE WITH MY BRAKING POWER OR RUIN THE REAR AXLE BY DRIVING IT WITH NO OIL. *JB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
2004 NISSAN TITAN, DRIVING THROUGH SUPER MARKET SHOPPING CENTER, THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE TRUCK. MY WIFE HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES REPEATEDLY IN ORDER FOR THE TRUCK TO COME TO A STOP. SHE WAS GOING LESS THAN 10 MPH WHEN THIS OCCURRED. IT CONTINUED TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHICH WAS 1/2 MILE DOWN THE SAME STREET. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM OR REPLICATE IT. SHE REFUSES TO DRIVE THE TRUCK AND WANTS IT GONE. MY DAUGHTER WHO WAS ALSO IN THE TRUCK WILL NOT GO BACK INTO IT. MY BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE IN FIRST AT 11000 MILES AND AGAIN AT 38000 NOW THIS AT 42000 MILES. WITH ALL THE BRAKE PROBLEMS THESE TRUCKS HAVE HAD, SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED. *JB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I BOUGHT A NISSAN TITAN CREW CAB, NEW, IN 2004. IN JUNE OF 2006 THE BRAKES HAD A COMPLETE FAILURE AND WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT STOPPING THE TRUCK. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIME ON MY WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP STATED THE PROBLEM WAS THAT THE SOFTWARE NEEDED UPGRADING. THE SALEMAN ALSO NOTED THAT THEY HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE BREAKS IN THE NISSAN TITANS AND ARMADAS. THEY UPGRADED THE SOFTWARE. THE PROCESS WAS CALLED " MISC REPROGRAM VDC WITH UPDATE" WHICH I HAD TO PAY FOR. THEY FIXED THE ISSUE FOR THAT OCCURENCE. THE BREAKS WORKED UNTIL YESTERDAY, DEC 13, 2006 WHEN THE BREAKS DID THE SAME THING, CAUSING ME TO RUN OFF THE ROAD TO AVOID REAR ENDING INTO ANOTHER CAR. I DID NOT READ IN THE OWNERS MANUAL ANYWHERE , WHERE IT STATED I MUST BRING THE TRUCK IN FOR A COMPUTER SOFTWARE UPGRADE TO MAKE THE BRAKES WORK APPROPRIATELY. THE TRUCK IS AT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP NOW TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. *NM

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT
I HAVE HAD MY 2004 TITAN 3 WEEKS AND YESTERDAY IT MADE A CLUNK THAT I THOUGHT WAS SOMETHING SLIDING IN THE BED. LATER THAT EVENING, I PULLED OUT OF THE CAR WASH AND HORRIBLE CLUNKING STARTED COMING FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. IT SEEMS TO BE STARTED WHEN TURNING WHICH LEADS ME TO THINK IT IS RELATED TO THE E-LOCK FEATURE OF THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. IT IS PARKED AND UNDRIVEABLE UNTIL THE DEALER GETS IT TOWED TOMORROW. IT APPEARS TO HAVE HAD PREVIOUS REAR DIFFERENTIAL PROBLEMS BECAUSE THE STOCK COVER HAS BEEN CHANGED TO ALUMINUM FINNED TYPE AND IT HAS SYNTHETIC OIL IN IT. *NM
