SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
NISSAN HAS ACKNOWLEGED THAT THE BRAKES ON NISSAN TITAN ARE INADEQUATE. THIS CAUSES THE ROTORS TO WARP UNDER EVEN THE LIGHTEST USE. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE DEMAND FOR THE REPLACEMENT PARTS IS VERY HIGH, THEREFORE THE REMEDY IS TO GO THE DEALERSHIP, HAVE THE ROTORS TURNED TWICE BEFORE THEY WILL ORDER PARTS. I ASKED TO ORDER THE PARTS RIGHT AWAY WITHOUT TURNING THE ROTORS FIRST AND THEY DECLINED. MEANTIME, I AM DRIVING A BRAND NEW TRUCK WITH 6000 MILES ON IT WITH WARPED ROTORS. I DO NOT FEEL THAT I AM IN IMMINENT DANGER HOWEVER THIS IS A BRAKING PROBLEM WHICH IN MY OPINION IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE.

BRAKES ON MY 004 NISSAN TITAN STARTED FAILING A FEW MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT IT TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND GOT IT REPAIRED AND A FEW MONTHS AFTER IT STARTED TO HAVE EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM, SHAKING BADLY WHEN YOU TRY TO STOP. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER GOT IT FIX AND IT STARTING TO SHOW THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN ONLY A FEW WEEKS AFTER I TOOK IT BACK THE 2ND TIME.THE THING THAT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE RIGHT TO ME IS THAT AT THEIR GARAGE REPAIR SCHEDULING IS ALL ABOUT BRAKES .

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
DT: NISSAN 2004 TITAN PICKUP AND FRONT BRAKE PROBLEMS. THE BRAKES ARE VIBRATING WHEN YOU COME TO A STOP. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP DESCRIBE IT AS WARPED ROTORS ON BOTH FRONT BRAKES. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WOULD TEMPORARILY FIX THE PROBLEM UNTIL NISSAN CAME OUT WITH A PERMANENT FIX. AS YOU APPLY THE BRAKES THE STEERING WHEEL WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE CONSUMER HAS NOT HAD THE TEMPORARY FIX DONE, STILL WAITING ON NISSAN FOR THE RECALL NOTICE. THE NISSAN DEALER SAID THAT NISSAN IS WORKING ON A PERMANENT FIX. *TT *EH CONSUMER STATES THAT WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED STEERING IS HARD TO CONTROL.*SB

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
AT 13,000 MILES, MY TRUCK HAS BEEN TO THE NISSAN DEALER 3 TIMES FOR BRAKE ROTER PROBLEMS. THE ROTORS WARP AND CAUSE VIOLENT SHAKING OF THE STERING WHEEL WHEN BRAKING. THE TRUCK WILL ALSO PULL TO THE LEFT WHEN BRAKING. THIS SEEMS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND IT IS VERY DISSAPOINTING THAT NISSAN HASN'T FIXED THIS PROBLEM.

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:DISC
THE FRONT BRAKES ON MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY AT 8100 MILES IN JAN '05. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY ONLY RESURFACED THE ROTORS AND PUT ON NEW PADS. AGAIN IN APR '05 IT STARTED SHAKING CAUSING ME TO ALMOST LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER THE NEW BRAKES FROM NISSAN SINCE THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT ALLOWING DEALERS TO STOCK THE PARTS. THEY HAD TO ORDER THEM BY VIN. NEARLY TWO WEEKS LATER MY PARTS ARE NOT IN AND I AM FORCED TO PUT THIS UNSAFE VEHICLE ON THE ROAD EVERY DAY CARYYING MY 22 MONTH OLD TWINS. THE DEALER AND NISSAN DON'T SEEM TO BE CONCERNED LIKE IT'S NO BIG DEAL. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE ANYTHING GETS DONE WITH THIS?

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:LEVER AND LINKAGE:FLOOR SHIFT
WHILE BACKING MY BOAT INTO ITS PARKING SPOT I PUT MY VEHICLE IN "PARK", LEFT THE DRIVER'S DOOR OPEN, LEFT ENGINE RUNNING AND EXITED VEHICLE TO UNHITCH MY BOAT TRAILER FROM MY TRUCK TRAILER HITCH. I WAS AT THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE TURNING THE TRAILER JACK. I WAS BEHIND THE TRUCK FOR APPROXIMATELY 45 SECONDS WHEN I HEARD A CLICK, AND MY VEHICLE STARTED MOVING BACKWARDS. I REALIZED WHAT WAS HAPPENING--THE GEAR SHIFTED FROM PARK TO REVERSE. I ATTEMPTED TO ENTER THE DRIVER'S SIDE,AND OPENED DOOR TO HIT THE BRAKE. WHILE ENTERING THE DRIVER'S SIDE I WAS HOLDING ONTO THE DOOR AS LEVERAGE ATTEMPTING TO APPLY MY RIGHT FOOT ONTO THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE REVERSE MOVEMENT CAUSED THE DOOR TO COME IN CONTACT WITH A TREE. THE TREE PULLED THE DOOR FORWARD AS THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING BACKWARDS. THE DOOR'S CONTACT WITH THE TREE CAUSED THE DOOR TO PULL ME OUT AND THREW ME TO THE GROUND, CAUSING INJURY TO MY LEFT ARM AND LEG. I GOT UP AND RAN AND JUMPED INTO THE CAB OF THE TRUCK AND WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. SUPPOSEDLY BEING INVESTIGATED BY NISSAN TECHNICAL REPRESENTATIVE.*AK

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
LIKE MANY OTHER TITAN OWNERS I AM HAVING CONSTANT PROBLEMS WITH THE FRONT BRAKES GETTING SOFT AND VIBRATING. NISSAN KEEPS SAYING THAT THEY HAVE A SOLUTION COMING, BUT THEY KEEP PUSHING THE DATE BACK. THE LAST TWO TIMES I'VE BEEN IN WITH THIS ISSUE, THEIR INTERIM FIX HASN'T HELPED FOR MORE THAN A DAY. BRAKES ARE SOMETHING THAT BOTH YOU AND NISSAN SHOULD NOT BE SCREWING AROUND ON. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED MONTHS AGO.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED VEHICLE DID NOT STOP PROPERLY. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER, AND CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THAT ROTORS WERE WARPED, AND UNDERSIZED, MAKING IT HARD TO HANDLE VEHICLE WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES. *AK CONTACTED NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY CONFIRMED THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN MANUFACTURED WITH UNDERSIZED ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS. THEY WOULD NOT REPLACED UNDERSIZED ROTOR OF PADS. THEY WOULD/AND DID TURN THE ORIGINAL ROTORS AND REPLACED PADS WITH IDENTICAL UNDERSIZED PADS. WHILE IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC BRAKES BECAME LESS AND LESS AFFECTIVE POSSIBLE FROM OVER HEATING. *BF

FRONT ROTORS WARPING WHICH CAUSES POOR DRIVABILITY AND DIFFICULTY CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE UNDER NORMAL BRAKING CONDITIONS. NISSAN HAS ISSUED A TSB AND VEHICLE WAS SERVICED UNDER THIS TSB AT 4000 MILES, PROBLEM RECURRED AT 7500 MILES. NISSAN SERVICE STATES THERE HAS BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS WITH THIS VEHICLE AND WILL AGAIN SERVICE AT NO COST. I AM UNAWARE AT THIS TIME IF THIS WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. *NM

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
PURCHASED VEHICLE IN AUGUST 2004, TRUCK STARTED TO SHAKE SLIGHTLY WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED AT AROUND 7000 MILES. HAD BRAKES/ROTORS REPLACED AT APPROXIMATELY 11000 MILES WHEN THE SHAKING MADE THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I AM NOW AT 17000 MILES AND THE TRUCK IS DOING THE SAME THING. STARTS OFF AS A SLIGHT SHUTTER, AND PROGRESSES TO THE POINT WHERE THE STEERING WHEEL PRACTICALLY SHAKES OUT OF DRIVER'S HANDS. *AK
