I WAS DRIVING DOWN MY STREET AT APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH AND AS I WENT AROUND A TURN I HEARD A LOUD "POP" AND THEN A THUMPING NOISE. THE TRUCK MADE THE THUMPING NOISE EVERY TIME THAT I WENT AROUND A CORNER. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL SPIDER GEARS BLEW OUT. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON TITANS AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED BY NISSAN. *TR

2005 NISSAN TITAN REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE. THE TRUCK BROKE DOWN AND LEFT ME STRANDED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT MY DRIVE TRAIN WARRANTY RAN OUT 600 MILES AGO AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $3,500.00 TO REPAIR IT.

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN TITAN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE REAR END STARTED POPPING AND LOST POWER. TRUCK HAS 62000 MILES ON IT . I DON'T TOW ANYTHING WITH IT. I TOOK TRUCK TO THE DEALER,THEY STATED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM, DEALER WANTED $3500 TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE REAR END ! IF SO MANY TRUCKS MADE BY NISSAN ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WHY HAVE YOU NOT MADE THEM RECALL THIS ITEM. THE REAR END IN THIS TRUCK IS DANGEROUS, IF IT HASN'T ALREADY IT WILL GET SOMEONE HURT OR KILLED . *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
NISSAN IPDM (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE) WHICH HOUSES THE FUEL PUMP RELAY WILL INADVERTENTLY SHUT OFF POWER TO THE FUEL PUMP. IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME FROM A PARKED VEHICLE AND HAS ALSO HAPPENED TO ME WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THERE IS NO TIMED SEQUENCE AS TO WHEN THIS HAPPENS, BUT WHEN IT DOES YOU LOSE POWER TO THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY. THE VEHICLE WILL RE-START AFTER SITTING FOR 10 MINUTES, BUT MAY CUT OUT AGAIN 15 MINUTES LATER. *TR

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
2005 NISSAN TITAN. DOOR LATCH FAILURE DURING COLD WEATHER BELOW FREEZING. LIVE IN ANCHORAGE ALASKA, SO TIME PERIOD OF THIS WEATHER IS OCTOBER - APRIL. DOOR WILL NOT OPEN, NOR CLOSE PROPERLY FROM INSIDE, OR OUTSIDE OF VEHICLE. HAD THIS PROBLEM LAST WEEK, WAS NOT ABLE TO GET BACK INTO VEHICLE FOR 10MIN WHILE CHILD WAS STILL IN BACK SEAT. YESTERDAY 2 NOV DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY DOOR OPENED UNEXPECTEDLY AND PASSENGER NEARLY FELL OUT OF VEHICLE. NO ONE INJURED, HOWEVER YOU CAN IMAGINE THE EXPERIENCE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THERE IS A NISSAN TSB THAT THEY WILL REPLACE DOOR LOCKING MECHANISM IF VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY. NISSAN USA: TBNS BX56AA / TSB 05118. HOWEVER IF VEHICLE IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY THEY QUOTED ME AT $400+ PER DOOR X'S 4 DOORS. THIS IS UNREASONABLE AND A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD FOR MOST OF THE COUNTRY THAT EXPERIENCES WEATHER BELOW 32DEGREES F. IT IS A KNOWN FAILURE THAT NISSAN USA KNOWS ABOUT. THIS SHOULD BE A MANDATED RECALL. THERE WILL BE SEVERE LAWSUITS FILED IF ANOTHER PASSENGER, MY CHILD, OR MYSELF CANNOT GET INTO A VEHICLE, OR UNEXPECTEDLY FALLS OUT. BELOW ARE LINKS TO A NISSAN TITAN ONLINE FORUM WITH MULTIPLE OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS.

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN HAD A REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE AT APPROX. 73,000 MILES. THERE WAS A LOUD BANGING/RATCHETING SOUND AND THEN THE FAILURE. NISSAN (OR NO ONE ELSE, FOR THAT MATTER) WILL NOT SELL REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THIS PROBLEM. YOU CAN ONLY PURCHASE THE "ENTIRE UNIT", AT A COST OF $3500.00, WHICH IS TOTALLY RIDICULOUS, SINCE IT IS ONLY A PART OF THE ENTIRE UNIT THAT HAS FAILED. I'M AFRAID THAT IF I HAD BEEN AT HIGHWAY SPEED, THAT MYSELF AND/OR OTHERS COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR EVEN KILLED. *TR

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT
THERE ARE NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE. THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WENT OUT ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN, IN ORDER TO REPAIR THE PART, I HAD TO BUY AN "ENTIRE" NEW REAR DIFFERENTIAL (BECAUSE THIS OF COURSE HAPPENED OUT OF WARRANTY). I WAS TOLD THE PART THAT NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED IS ACTUALLY A VERY SMALL PART OF THE DIFFERENTIAL, BUT I HAD TO PAY $4000 TO GET THE ENTIRE THING REPLACED. I WOULD LIKE TO STATE THAT I AM VERY VERY GLAD THAT THIS DID NOT HAPPEN WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. I WAS ONLY DOING ABOUT 15 MPH WHEN IT WENT, AND IT FELT LIKE I GOT HIT BY A MACK TRUCK!!!!! I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING THE INTERNET TO SEE HOW OFTEN THIS IS HAPPENING AND IT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING ALOT! SOMEONE SHOULD CHECK INTO THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED! *TR

DOOR LATCHES FREEZE AND WILL NOT OPEN, OR IF ABLE TO BE OPENED, WILL NOT LATCH IN FREEZING TEMPS. OTHERWISE, IF THE DOOR IS SECURED, THE LATCH FREEZES TRAPPING THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE! WHAT IF THERE IS A FIRE? WHAT IF MY FAMILY IS INVOLVED IN A CRASH? DOES A CHILD HAVE TO FALL OUT OF A MOVING VEHICLE AND GET KILLED BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE ABOUT THIS? YOU FOLKS HAVE BEEN AWARE FOR SOME TIME NOW, WHY HAVEN'T YOU DONE ANYTHING? THIS IS A VERY BLATANT SAFETY ISSUE. MY NEXT STEP IS TO CALL MY ATTORNEY. *TR
