ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
I HAVE A 2006 SE NISSAN TITAN TRUCK, MY CONCERN IS I JUST FOUND OUT FROM MY LOCAL DEALER THAT I HAVE A EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAK. THE MAIN REASON FOR MY CONCERN IS... HOW THIS CAME ABOUT WAS BECAUSE I WAS AND STILL AM GETTING EXHAUST FUMES INTO DRIVER COMPARTMENT WHICH IN RETURN GIVES ME HEADACHES, AND ON TWO OCCASIONS CAUSED SERVE DIZZINESS. WHEN I EXPLAINED THIS TO THE DEALER THE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO! I HAVE TWO CHILDREN WHO I DRIVE TO SCHOOL, I DON'T NEED THEM GETTING SICK FROM THESE FUMES FROM WHICH I EXPERIENCED! I'M ASKING FOR SOME KIND OF HELP! *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, POWER TRAIN
BOTH REAR AXLE SEALS STARTED LEAKING ALL OVER MY BRAKES AND INSIDE THE WHEEL WELL CAUSING POOR BREAKING ABILITY. I CALLED THE NISSAN DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH TITANS AND THAT THEY NO LONGER RECOMMEND REPLACING JUST THE SEALS BUT INSTEAD THE WHOLE AXLE. THE TECH (WHO TOLD ME HE HAD 20 YRS WITH NISSAN) SAID THAT WHEN THEY USED TO JUST REPLACE THE SEALS PEOPLE WOULD HAVE TO COME BACK 6 MONTHS LATER BECAUSE THE SEALS WOULD BLOW AGAIN. ALL OF THE POSTS ONLINE SAY THAT IT IS A RESULT OF AN IMPROPER VENTING SYSTEM THAT DOES NOT ALLOW FOR THE RELEASE OF NEGATIVE PRESSURE. IF THIS IS SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM, AND NISSAN KNOWS THAT IT IS, WHY DON'T THEY DO A FULL RECALL? THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT CAN CAUSE BRAKE FAILURE. *TR

AS MY HUSBAND JUST GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE THE REAR END COMPLETELY BLEW OUT, PARTS WENT EVERYWHERE. WHEELS LOCKED UP. A GENTLEMAN THAT WAS WALKING BROUGHT ME SOME PARTS THAT SHOT ACROSS THE STREET. THANK GOD I WAS OFF THE INTERSTATE WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 70 MPH, THE ENDING TO THIS STORY WOULD BE MORE TRAGIC. LONG STORY SHORT, IT WAS THE ENTIRE REAR END. LOOKS LIKE I AM LOOKING AT A $2,000 REPAIR THAT EVIDENTLY NISSAN KNOWS ALL ABOUT WITH THE COMPLAINTS AND IT IS CRAZY THEY HAVE NOT DONE A THING ABOUT IT. I KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THAT THINGS HAPPEN TO VEHICLES, BUT WE HAD NO WARNING OF WHAT JUST TOOK PLACE. *TR

2004 NISSAN TITAN THE REAR WIRING HARNESS IS ROUTED OVER THE FRAME RAIL DIRECTLY NEXT TO THE TAILPIPE CAUSING IT TO MELT IN THE EVENT OF AN EXHAUST LEAK. THIS HAPPENED TO ME AND NOW I'M STUCK SPLICING WIRES TOGETHER AS THE LOCAL DEALER IN SAINT JOHN NB WANT OVER $1000.00 TO REPLACE, THIS PROBLEM SEEM TO BE A COMMON ONE AMONG OTHER OWNERS I HAVE TALKED TO AND POSES A SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD / POTENTIAL ACCIDENT DUE TO COMPLETE SUDDEN LOSS OF ALL POWER. NISSAN CANADA SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF THIS (I'M SURE THEY ALREADY ARE) TO AVOID ANY LEGAL PROBLEMS THAT MAY ARISE DUE TO THEM NOT RECOMMENDING AN INSPECTION / NOTICE OR RECALL OF THE REAR WIRING HARNESS. *TR

VEHICLE HAS ONLY 49K MILES ON IT AND HAD TO HAVE THE RIGHT REAR AXLE SEAL REPLACED FOR THE SECOND TIME. THIS TIME OUT OF MY POCKET AS IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. MANY TITAN OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. APPEARS THERE IS NO PERMANENT FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AS IF THE FLUID TOTALLY LEAKED OUT, I AND MANY OTHERS COULD HAVE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT CAUSED BY THE REAR END FAILURE. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, POWER TRAIN
JUST HAD BOTH MANIFOLDS REPLACED UNDER NISSAN WARRANTY. AS I WAS DRIVING AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP I HEARD A LOUD POP TURNING RIGHT FROM THE REAR OF THE TRUCK. TURNED AROUND BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIPS PARKING LOT I HEARD ANOTHER POP? THE SERVICE TECH DROVE IT AROUND THEIR SERVICE AREA AND SAID MY REAR DIFFERENTIAL WAS GOING OUT. NISSAN HAS KNOWN THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR YEARS ESPECIALLY IN THE EARLY TRUCKS YEARS BUT REFUSES TO FIX IT UNDER A RECALL. THIS IS A $3500.00 FIX WHICH THE CONSUMER HAS TO PAY AND NISSAN PROFITS FROM A POORLY DESIGNED COMPONENT. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON ALL NISSAN TITANS FROM '04 - '07. *TR
