BOTH REAR AXLE SEALS LEAKED AT 38,XXX IN 9/2009 AND WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. NO ISSUES FOR TWO YEARS. IN 8/2011 DRIVER SIDE IS LEAKING AGAIN. TRIED TO EXPRESS MY CONCERNS TO NISSAN AND WAS REJECTED BECAUSE OF "WARRANTY" ISSUES. SEEMS TO BE AN INHERENT PROBLEM EXPERIENCED BY A LOT OF 04-07' TITAN/ARMADA OWNERS. TSB ISSUED BY NISSAN TO REPLACE ENTIRE AXLE ASSEMBLY 5 MONTHS AFTER MY FIRST LEAK, BUT THEY DON'T FEEL IT'S THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO NOTIFY OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCED THE ISSUE PRIOR TO THE BULLETIN. WAS TOLD BY A NISSAN REP. THAT THE TSB IS A GUIDELINE FOR TECH'S. TO PROPERLY FIX AN ISSUE IF IT ARISES. I HAD THE ISSUE BUT IT WAS 5 MONTHS BEFORE THEY FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO A "PROPER" FIX, AND ACCORDING TO THEM IT DOESN'T APPLY TO ME UNLESS THE PART OR LABOR OR DRIVETRAIN WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. WAS TOLD THAT IF THIS WAS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE THEY MIGHT OFFER GOOD FAITH CREDIT. CURIOUS AS TO HOW MANY IT WILL TAKE FOR THEM TO NOT TURN THE BLIND EYE TO AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM WITH WHAT I FEEL IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVE AXLE OF A VEHICLE, I BELIEVE THAT SHOULD QUALIFY AS A SAFETY ISSUE OR RECALL. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE PROBLEM MIGHT HAD BEEN CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE FUEL FILTER OR BATTERY. AS A PRECAUTION THE CONTACT REPLACED BOTH PARTS. THE REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO REFERRED HIM TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 136,000.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
LEAVING WORK AT 5:00 PM. STARTED TRUCK AND GOT TO STOP SIGN EVERYTHING WAS FINE. TURNED LEFT ONTO MAJOR STREET AND WHEN APPROACHING FIRST STOP LIGHT BRAKE PEDDLE WENT ALMOST TO FLOOR. IT FELT REALLY SPONGY AND MADE A GRINDING NOISE. HAD TO RUN UP ON CURB TO AVOID GOING INTO INTERSECTION. CAR DID COME TO A STOP AND I NOTICED BRAKE LIGHT WAS ON. I TURNED TRUCK OFF AND STARTED AGAIN. BRAKES WERE BACK. DID A SEARCH FOR THIS DESCRIPTION OF FAILURE AND FOUND SEVERAL THREADS WITH TONS OF TRUCKS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. IT SEEMS TO BE A BAD DELTA SENSOR. NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT THIS BUT DOES NOTHING. HOPEFULLY IT DOESN'T TAKE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT FOR THEM TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. JUST SEARCH FOR NISSAN TITAN DELTA SENSOR AND YOU WILL SEE ALL THE VEHICLES WITH PROBLEMS. I WAS REFERRED TO THIS SITE BY NISSAN. THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL THEY WERE TOLD TO BY NHTSA. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I WAS HAVING AN ISSUE WITH MY ENGINE STALLING WITH AROUND 97,900 MILES ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN. AT THIS TIME, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALSO CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET THE PROBLEM CODE READ AND THEY SAID I HAD FAULTY BANK 1 AND BANK 2 CATALYTIC CONVERTERS. THE DEALER SAID THE STALLING WAS DUE TO A RECALL, NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 10V517000. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT I HAD NO PROBLEM WITH MY CATALYTIC CONVERTERS UNTIL THIS RECALL ISSUE. SINCE MY CATALYTIC CONVERTERS AND EXHAUST MANIFOLD ARE ONE PIECE, IT COST $2,827.28 TO HAVE THEM REPLACED AND I DO NOT FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY THIS, SINCE THIS PROBLEM STEMMED FROM THEIR RECALL ISSUE.

2006 NISSAN TITAN SE REAR LEFT SEAL LEAKING FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. NOW THE SAME ISSUE ON THE LEFT REAR SEAL IS LEAKING AGAIN AND ALSO THE RIGHT REAR SEAL IS STARTING TO LEAK. BASED ON ALL MY RESEARCH I HAVE DONE THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE AND SHOULD BE CONTINUED TO BE COVERED AFTER THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS. MY TRUCK IS NOW AT THE DEALER AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR REPAIRS. MY TRUCK HAS ONLY 88,000 MILES. *TR

HEARD A CLUNK FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTION I FOUND THAT THE ELECTRONIC LOCKER DISINTEGRATED DAMAGING THE REAR END. I FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR 2004 TO 2007 TITAN'S WITH THE OFF-ROAD PACKAGE. NEVER USED THE TRUCK FOR TOWING. IT WAS USED FOR DAILY TRANSPORTATION. THE TRUCK HAD ABOUT 90,000 MILES ON IT WHEN THE REAR END BLEW UP. I HAD A LOCAL SHOP PUT IN NEW AXLES, RING AND PINION AND AN AFTER MARKET LOCKER FOR ABOUT $2500. NISSAN WANTED TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE REAR END WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN ABOUT $3500. *TR

2007 NISSAN TITAN REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED. I NOTICED A THUNK WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR STARTING UP FROM A STOP. UPON DECELERATION THERE WOULD BE A THUNK THUNK THUNK. TEMPO WOULD INCREASE OR DECREASE IN RELATION TO SPEED. I TURNED A CORNER, FELT AND HEARD A VERY SIGNIFICANT CLUNK/BANG, FELT LIKE I ROLLED OVER A BOULDER, AS I PROCEEDED FOR ANOTHER 50 YDS, THE THUNK WAS HARD ENOUGH TO FEEL THROUGH THE VEHICLE AND LOUD ENOUGH TO HEAR FROM OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE AS EVIDENCED BY THE STARES I GOT AS I CAME TO A STOP. TOWED IT TO SHEEHY NISSAN IN MANASSAS, VA, THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS THE REAR DIFF AND REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY. MILEAGE WAS 42,828. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILURE MANY NISSAN TITANS ARE EXPERIENCING PREMATURE CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILURE. SOME FAILURES ARE CAUSING THE ENGINE TO SEIZE, AS PARTICLES OF THE CORE OF SUCKED UP INTO THE ENGINE. THIS HAS CAUSED FAILURES WHILE DRIVING, AND AS OF YET HAS NOT CAUSED ANY CRASHES OR FIRES. I BELIEVE IT IS AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. THERE ARE ARE LARGE NUMBER OF FAILURES BEFORE 80,000 MILES, AND A LARGE NUMBER OF FAILURES RIGHT AFTER 80,000 MILES WHICH LEAVES IT UP TO THE CONSUMER TO PAY $1700+ TO HAVE THE REPAIR DONE. NISSAN IS SAYING IT'S NOT AN ISSUE, BUT INTERNET REPORTS OF THE FAILURES WOULD SAY OTHERWISE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE. THANKS *TT

THE REAR AXLE SEALS IN MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN 5.6L SE STARTED LEAKING. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 89,000. THE SEALS ARE EXTREMELY HARD TO FIND. WHEN REPLACING THE AXEL SEALS YOU ALSO HAVE TO REPLACE THE SPACERS AND THE BEARINGS. NOT ONLY THAT BUT THE FLUID FROM THE LEAK HAS GOT ONTO THE BRAKE PADS AND ROTOR. IT STARTED LEAKING TERRIBLY IN ONLY A MATTER OF A FEW DAYS. *TR
