MY DIESEL TITAN HAS A DANGEROUS EXCELLERATION PROBLEM. I HIT THE PEDAL TO CHANGE LANES WHEN IN TRAFFIC OR WHEN TRYING TO MERGE ONTO A STREET THERE IS A HUGE DELAY BEFORE IT KICKS IN. I COMMUNICATED THROUGH FORUMS AND ONLINE TO SEE I AM NOT THE ONLY COMPLAINT . THE ANSWER FROM NISSAN IS IT IS BY DESIGN? HOW IS THIS A SAFE DESIGN?

SERVICE BRAKES
FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS, I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELING "SPONGY" AND OCCASIONALLY GOING TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT ANY REDUCTION IN SPEED. THE BRAKE PEDAL PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE AND CULMINATED WHEN I WAS TRAVELLING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH AND TRIED TO SLOW DOWN DUE TO SLOWER TRAFFIC. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I HAD TO SWERVE INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO KEPT IT FOR SEVERAL DAYS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. HE REPLACED SEVERAL BRAKE COMPONENTS INCLUDING THE FRONT BRAKE CALIPERS, MASTER CYLINDER, BRAKE BOOSTER, AND THE ABS MODULE. HE THEN BLED THE BRAKE LINES MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET THE BRAKE PEDAL BACK TO ITS NORMAL RANGE. ALL OF THIS WORKED FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND THEN THE PROBLEM RETURNED. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER ON JANUARY 31, 2018 AND HAD THE FOLLOWING DONE. THEY PERFORMED ANOTHER BRAKE FLUSH, CLEANED AND ADJUSTED THE REAR CALIPERS, AND CLEANED AND LUBRICATED THE SLIDES AND PAD CONTACTS. I PICKED THE TRUCK UP AND THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT LIKE NEW. IT HAS NOW BEEN A LITTLE OVER THREE MONTHS AND THE BRAKE PEDAL IS GRADUALLY FALLING TOWARDS THE FLOOR DURING BRAKING, SIMILAR TO PAST EXPERIENCE. BRAKING DISTANCES WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION HAVE INCREASED AND THE BRAKING POWER DOESN'T SEEM TO BE THERE ANYMORE.

STEERING
MY TITAN HAS ONLY 34617 MILES ON IT AND THE POWER STEERING UNIT WENT BAD AND ALSO SENT METAL SHAVINGS INTO THE RACK AND PINION STEERING. I HAVE TO PAY NISSAN $1200.00 DOLLARS TO FIX THE POWER STEERING UNIT AND TRY TO FLUSH OUT THE METAL SHAVINGS.IF THEY CAN'T FLUSH OUT THE SYSTEM ADD ANOTHER $2500.00 TO REPLACE THE RACK AND PINION STEERING ON MY TRUCK. $4000.00 TO FIX MY TRUCK WITH LESS THAN 35000 MILES ON IT. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN TO A VEHICLE WITH LOW MILES AND HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND PAMPERED SINCE I BOUGHT IT.I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF THIS TRUCK AND NISSAN SHOULD HAVE TO FOOT THIS BILL! HELP!!!!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
DRIVING DOWN A BUSY ROAD ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK AND VEHICLE SPUTTERS AS IF OUT OF FUEL UNTIL IT DIED. COULD NOT GET TRUCK TO CRANK AND WAS CLEARLY A LACK OF FUEL. FUEL GAUGE READ 1/4 TANK FULL EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED IN CAMPAIGN 10V074000. FORTUNATRLY A POLICE OFFICER ASSISTED IN PUSHING MY TRUCK INTO A PARKING LOT. I CALLED A FAMILY MEMBER TO DRIVE UP WITH A GAS CONTAINER TO PUT A FEW GALLONS IN. SURE ENOUGH, CRANKED RIGHT UP. THE FOLLOWING DAY, I CONTACTED NISSAN OF USA, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CAMPAIGN AND BECAUSE OF THE AGE AND MILEAGE OF MY TRUCK I WOULD NOT RECEIVE ASSISTANCE IN THE REPAIR OF THIS MANUFACTURER DEFECT.

SERVICE BRAKES
THE BRAKES IN OUR 2004 NISSAN TITAN FAILED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THANKFULLY WE WERE NOT GOING FAST AND WERE ABLE TO PULL TO THE DIRT ON THE SIDE TO STOP. THERE WAS NO WARNING. WE HAD NO DEFERRED MAINTENANCE ON THE TRUCK. BRAKES WERE MECHANICALLY PERFECT.( TWO MECHANICS VERIFIED THIS ) ONCE WE TURNED THE TRUCK OFF AND BACK ON THE BRAKES WORKED AGAIN. FOUND A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN LA FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE. CONTACTED NISSAN, THEY DENIED KNOWING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. NO HELP. TOWED THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY DENIED KNOWING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS CHRONIC PROBLEM. TURNS OUT ITS A DELTA STROKE SENSOR PART OF THE ABS SYSTEM. NHTSA YOU NEED TO ORDER A RECALL, THIS IS A PUBLIC SAFELY ISSUE. THERE IS NO WARNING BEFORE FAILURE. PLEASE PROTECT THE PUBLIC GET THESE TRUCKS OFF THE ROAD AND FIXED BEFORE ONE OF THEM PLOWS INTO YOUR FAMILY. SO SADDENED BY NISSAN, NEVER AGAIN WILL I TRUST THIS COMPANY.

ENGINE, FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN I WAS DRIVING WITH SLIGHTLY LESS THAN 1/4 TANK OF GAS AND STOPPED TO PARK ON A HILL WITH VEHICLE ON IDLE. WHILE IN IDLE ON THE HILL THE VEHICLE STALLED OUT. I TRIED TO RESTART BUT THE ENGINE JUST CRANKED WITH NO START AND A LOW PRESSURE FUEL SYSTEM SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON. I TRIED TO PUSH IT DOWN THE HILL ON FLAT GROUND AND TRIED TO START AGAIN WITH JUST CRANKING NO START. I THEN HAD TO PUSH THE VEHICLE WITH THE HELP OF MY NEIGHBORS INTO A GUEST STALL AND CALL FOR A TOW. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO TONY NISSAN TO BE LOOKED AT WHERE THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THERE WERE NO ISSUES AND HE REVIEWED ALL THE FUEL SYSTEM AND NO ISSUES WERE FOUND. HE INFORMED ME HE LET THE VEHICLE CRANK OVER UNTIL THE PUMP WAS ABLE TO PICK UP FUEL AND PURGE THE LINE OF AIR AND THE CAR STARTED. THE SERVICE ADVISOR INFORMED ME OF THE FUEL TANK BEING LONGITUDINALLY PLACED IN THE TRUCK WITH FUEL PUMP IN THE CENTER WHICH STOPPED TO IDLE ON A HILL MAY HAVE CAUSED THE PUMP TO GO DRY AND PUMP AIR. I INFORMED HIM THAT THIS COULD BE AN ISSUE IF I WAS DRIVING UP OR DOWN A HILL WITH MY FAMILY AND THEN STOP AND IDLE WHEREBY THE TRUCK STALLS OUT ON A HILL OF SUCH MAGNITUDE LIKE IN SAN FRANCISCO OR WILHEMINA RISE IN HONOLULU, HI. HOPEFULLY THIS IS REVIEWED BY THE ENGINEERS AT NISSAN MOTOR WHICH THIS EMAIL IS ALSO BEING FORWARDED TO NHTSA. INVOICE NUMBER, I BELIEVE, FROM TONY NISSAN IS 653922. *TR

ENGINE
2005 NISSAN TITAN 121K MILES. CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD CAUSING A EXHAUST LEAK. THERE IS A STRONG EXHAUST SMELL IN THE CAB WHEN TRAVELING AT SLOWER SPEEDS (UNDER 35MPH). IT HAS BEEN SO BAD AT TIMES IT MAKES YOU LIGHT HEADED AND SICK TO YOUR STOMACH. THIS COULD CAUSE SOMEONE TO PASS OUT WHILE DRIVING CAUSING THEM TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THEIR VEHICLE. DEFIANTLY A SAFETY HAZARD! ALSO CAUSING A DECREASE IN GAS MILEAGE AS WELL AS A LOUD KNOCKING/PUFFING NOISE UPON ACCELERATION. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET FINDING 100'S IF NOT 1000'S OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS! WHY HAS THIS NEVER BEEN RECALLED? THE SAFETY ISSUE ALONE SHOULD WARRANT A RECALL, ITS OBVIOUSLY A FAULTY COMPONENT!

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I NOTICED AN ARCHING SOUND COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE TRUCK. UPON INSPECTION I NOTICED A BRIGHT WHITE ARC EVERY 30-32 SECONDS COMING FROM THE FUEL LINE TO THE TOP OF THE FRAME RAIL. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALER, NISSAN CAME BACK AND SAID THAT THIS WAS A "NORMAL CONDITION DUE TO A STATIC BUILD UP IN THE FUEL SYSTEM, NO REPAIR NECESSARY". IF THIS IS NORMAL WHY DIDN'T MY TRUCK DO IT WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT IT? ALSO, IF IT IS NORMAL WHY DON'T THEY ALL DO IT? IT WILL DO THIS DURING ALL MODES OF OPERATION AND WILL EVEN CONTINUE AFTER THE ENGINE HAS BEEN SHUT OFF IF THE IGNITION IS TURNED BACK ON.
