REAR PASSENGER AXLE SEAL IS LEAKING AND IS COATING BRAKE PADS AND BRAKE ROTORS. THIS SHOULD NOT BE LEAKING ESPECIALLY WHEN THIS VEHICLE IS NOT HIGH MILEAGE NOR IS IT DRIVEN CRAZY/RECKLESSLY. THIS IS CAUSING BRAKES TO NOT BE AS EFFECTIVE AS IT SHOULD BE. *TR

POWER TRAIN
HAD TRUCK IN SHOP FOR EXHAUST PIPE FALLING OFF AND IT WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT BOTH THE LEFT AND RIGHT REAR AXEL SEALS AND BEARINGS ARE BAD AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE AXEL HAD BEEN LEAKING FLUID ONTO MY TIRES AND BRAKES WHICH COULD HAVE RESULTED IN BRAKE FAILURE OR FIRE. NISSAN WILL NOT WARRANTY THE REAR AXEL REPAIRS. THIS IS THE SECOND NEW NISSAN FACTORY AXEL TO BE INSTALLED ON THIS VEHICLE SINCE PURCHASED NEW IN 2006. IT IS CURRENTLY HAVING THE REAR SEALS AND BEARINGS REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE NISSAN TITAN MODEL AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE
DRIVING CROSS COUNTRY IN NISSAN TITAN. TRUCK FLOOR GOT HOT AT ONE POINT. LATER TRUCK SPUTTERED AND SHUT ITSELF DOWN. I LET IT COOL DOWN AND IT DROVE FINE FOR A WHILE. NEXT DAY ALL OF US IN THE CAR WERE A LITTLE SICK AND NAUSEATED. CAR DROVE FINE THE REST OF THE TRIP AND IT WASN'T UNTIL AFTER WE ARRIVED AT OUR DESTINATION THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT CAME UP. LOOKED UP THE CODES WHICH WERE THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS HAD LOSS EFFICIENCY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEAL FOR A COMPLETE DIAGNOSIS. DEALER CONFIRMED ALL 4 CAT CONVERTERS WERE DEAD AND IT PROBABLY CAUSED BY A LEAK IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS. FURTHER RESEARCH SHOWS THAT NISSAN TITANS HAVE A HISTORY OF CRACKS IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THIS NOT ONLY RUINS THE CAT CONVERTERS BUT EXHAUST FUMES LEAK INTO THE CABIN CAUSING A HEALTH RISK. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN ABOUT THIS BUT HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THEM YET. *TR

MY TRUCK HAD A WHINE THAT SOUNDED LIKE BRAKES SQUEALING. I HAD THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP CHECK IT OUT AT MY LAST SERVICE AND THE TOLD ME THAT THE REAR BRAKES WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED SOON. SO A FEW MONTHS LATER MY TRUCK SUDDENLY BEGAN TO POP AND LUNGE WHEN TURNING SO I BROUGHT IT IN SAME DAY. $3,600.00 LATER I HAD A NEW REAR END BECAUSE THE OTHER ONE JUST "FAILED". REALLY? NO WARRANTY, NO NOTHING FROM NISSAN. CHECKING THIS SITE (AND OTHERS) THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH TITANS. SINCE THIS IS A (DOT) GOV. SITE HOW ABOUT DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS! *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM
I WAS DRIVING HOME ON A STATE ROUTE WITH A SPEED LIMIT OF 55 MPH. THE VEHICLE INDICATED THERE WAS 1/4 OF A TANK OF FUEL LEFT AND THEN THE ENGINE ABRUPTLY SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS GOING 55 MPH WITH TRAFFIC BEHIND ME AND VERY LIMITED RUN OFF ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WHEN THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF I LOST ALL POWER STEERING AND THE VEHICLE BECAME VERY HARD TO STOP. LUCKILY I WAS IN A TRUCK AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OF ONTO THE GRASS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, OTHERWISE IT MAY HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH AND FOUND THERE WAS ALREADY AN INCIDENT FILED FOR THIS, BUT WHEN I CALLED SOMEHOW MY VEHICLE WASN'T COVERED, EVEN THOUGH MY SYMPTOMS MATCHED THE NHTSA RECALL 10V07400 EXACTLY. IT WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE AND COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE HAD THE ROAD BEEN BUSIER OR I HADN'T PULLED OFF. I HAD TO WAIT FOR GAS ON A VERY BUSY ROAD WITH VERY LITTLE ROOM BETWEEN MY TRUCK AND OTHER TRAFFIC. I THINK IF MY VEHICLE ISN'T COVERED UNDER THE RECALL IT SHOULD BE EXPANDED SINCE IT WAS THE EXACT SAME SCENARIO AS OTHER NISSAN'S WERE HAVING, AND COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE. *TR

NOTICED THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR AXLE SEAL IS LEAKING FLUID. COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE THE AXLE TO SEIZE AND/OR BRAKES TO FAIL. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. LUCKILY I HAD A MECHANIC NOTICE IT BEFORE I GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS AND EXPENSIVE PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER DUE TO POOR QUALITY PARTS. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I'VE HAD TWO INCIDENTS WHERE MY TRUCK HAS RUN OUT OF GAS DUE TO THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYING THE WRONG AMOUNT OF GAS IN THE TANK. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON 2005 - 2009 TITANS FOR THIS SPECIFIC PROBLEM YET MY VEHICLES VIN HASN'T BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL. I'VE CONTACTED TWO LOCAL DEALERS AND THE NISSAN COMPANY DIRECTLY FOR A RESOLUTION BUT I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM MYSELF. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE CONCERNING THIS DISCREPANCY? THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR
