MY ENTIRE REAR AXLE HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 31,500 MILES ON MY NISSAN TITAN. IT STARTED HOWLING AND SMOKING WHEN DRIVING TO MOAB. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ENTIRE REAR AXLE. THANKFULLY I WAS NOT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN THE REAR END FAILED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE HAS HAD 4 SETS OF BRAKES/ROTORS/CALIPERS ON THE VEHICLE AND IS STARTING TO EXHIBIT SIGNS OF NEEDING THE FIX AGAIN. *JB

I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT ONTO A STREET. MY REAR WHEELS SPUN BRIEFLY IN THE SNOW UNTIL THEY HIT THE DRY PAVEMENT. A LOUD BANG CAME FROM THE REAR END OF MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT BACK TO CAMP. THE NEXT MORNING I CHECKED THE UNIVERSALS. THEY WERE OK. THEN I PROCEEDED TO SHIFT THE TRANS. BACK AND FOURTH FROM R TO D. THERE WAS A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF PLAY AND BANGING COMING FROM THE REAR END. I REMOVED THE REAR END DRAIN PLUG AND OUT POURED MY GEARS. I HAD IT TOWED HOME TODAY. I WILL CONTACT MY DEALER TOMORROW MORNING FOR THEM TO PICK IT UP. THERE IS ONLY 33.000 MILES ON MY TRUCK. *NM

I HAVE A 2004 NISSAN TITAN. HAD TRUCK IN FOR TIRE ROTATION. SERVICE PERSON NOTICED REAR AXLE SEALS WERE LEAKING. EXPLAINED THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF FLUID LEAKING ON BRAKES. NISSAN SAID THEY WOULD NEED TO INSPECT AND PROBABLY REPLACE BRAKES WHEN FIXING SEALS, THUS ADMITTING THEY ARE UNSAFE.*JB
