2005 Nissan Titan 4-DR.

THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE INACCURATELY DISPLAYS THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAS SOME FUEL, AT ONE QUARTER TANK, WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS ACTUALLY EMPTY. THIS COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF GAS AND STALL ON THE HIGHWAY, WHICH COULD CAUSE A CRASH. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY TRUCK WAS NOT AFFECTED EVEN THOUGH IT IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKES OCCASIONALLY FAILED TO ENGAGE WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT RELATED THE FAILURE TO AN UNKNOWN RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 230,000.

TRANSMISSION WONT DOWN SHIFT, STUCK IN HIGH GEAR, TURN IT OFF AND BACK ON AND IT WILL SHIFT FINE TILL I STOP AGAIN

THE FEEL GAUGE DOES NOT SHOW ACCURATE GASOLINE LEVELS. IT DOES THIS REGARDLESS OF SPEED OR WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AS IF YOU WERE TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND RAN OUT OF GAS YOU COULD CAUSE A CRASH. THE FUEL GAUGE CAN SHOW YOU HAVE HALF A TANK BUT YOU ONLY ACTUALLY HAVE A QUARTER OF A TANK. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS FOR ANOTHER MODEL BUT NOT FOR MINE.

I HAVE A NISSAN NORTH AMERICA RECALL LETTER ADDRESSED TO ME FOR RECAL 06V-459, WHICH IS A AIRBAG LIGHT AND WIRING HARNESS RECALL ON MY DRIVERS SIDE. I WAS CHARGED FULL PRICE FOR THE RECALL REPAIR AT RIVERHEAD NISAAN IN NEW YORK AND LATER FOUND MY RECALL NOTICE AND HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND NISSAN NORTH AMERICA AND NO QUALITY ASSISTANCE. MY RECALL LETTER SAYS I AM ELIGIBLE FOR REIMBURSEMENTS AND TO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC AND SAFETY ADMINISTRATION. I AM DOING SO BECAUSE NISSAN IS NOT HELPING ME. RIVERHEAD NISSAN HAS MY REPAIR IN THEIR SYSTEM. ATTACHED ARE PHOTOS OF THE RECALL OF IMPORTANCE. FILED WAS CLAIMED JAN 2021 WITH NISSAN NORTH AMERICA. REPAIR HAPPENED COUPLE YEARS AGO.

INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE NOT PROPERLY READING AMOUNT OF FUEL IN TANK. THIS CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF GAS AND STALL ON THE CITY STREET, WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH.

RANDOMLY, WHILE DRIVING ANYWHERE I HIT THE BRAKES. THE WHEELS ALMOST LOCK UP AND I CAN HEAR THE ABS KICK IN. ALSO THE BRAKE LIGHT IS ON THE DASH. I SHUT THE TRUCK OFF AND WHEN RESTARTS EVERYTHING IS BACK TO NORMAL.

I HAVE HAD THE TRUCK FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS AND ITS GETTING WORSE FUEL TANK IS HARD TO FILL AND MAKES A WHISTLING SOUND.

FUEL GAGE CONSISTENTLY STOPS WORKING WHEN IT REACHES 1/2 OF GAS BURNED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, HE HEARD AN ABNORMAL SOUND COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CONTINUED DRIVING TO HIS DESTINATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE MANIFOLD GASKET NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 160,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, HE HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE CONTACT STATED PARKED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. THE CONTACT STATED HE AND 3 OTHER BYSTANDERS PUSHED THE VEHICLE TO A NEARBY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC INFORMED HIM THAT THE REAR WHEEL WHEEL-BEARINGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 126,500.

GAS GUAGE SAYS 189 THEN DROPS TO 70 AND CHANGES EVERY 5 MINS AND ITS DIED WITH READING HALF FULL AND 197 MILES TILL EMPTY IT FLUCTUATES IN MOTION AT A STOP AT RANDOM TIMES

THE ODOMETER WAS SET BACK FROM 226,844 TO 114,000 BY SOMEONE WHO OWNED THE CAR PREVIOUSLY AND WE WERE NOT MADE AWARE.*DT*JB

THEIR IS A CURRENT RECALL ON THE FUEL SYSTEM FOR THE GAUGE READING INCORRECTLY AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. MY TRUCK IS HAVING THAT ISSUE, BUT MY VIN SHOWS NOT TO BE UNDER THAT RECALL. I AM ALSO HAVING ENGINE PROBLEMS THAT I ALSO BELIEVE TO BE DUE TO A FAILING FUEL PUMP OR POSSIBLY ONE OF THE OTHER MANY PROBLEMS WITH ENGINE PERFORMANCE ON THIS MODEL TITAN. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE RECALL FOR THE FUEL GAUGE PROBLEM IS NOT COVERING MY VEHICLE , I HAVE HAD MANY PROBLEMS WITH MY NISSAN TITAN SINCE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW AND ABSOLUTELY NO HELP FROM NISSAN TO FIX FAULTY PARTS, INCLUDING THE VALVE COVER THAT IF CLOGGED WILL ALLOW ENGINE OIL DOWN INTO THE VALVES AND CYLINDER AND CAUSE SMOKING PROBLEM, AND EVENTUALLY RUIN THE ENGINE CYLINDER. MY TITAN WILL NOT TAKE FUEL AND STARTS STALING OUT AT 2000 RPM CAUSING ME TO ALMOST BE IN SEVERAL ACCIDENTS ALREADY. ALL VEHICLES WITH PARTS THAT ARE BEING RECALLED SHOULD BE INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. NISSAN SHOULD'NT BE ABLE TO PIC AND CHOOSE WHO GETS COVERED, THEY SHOULD MAN UP AND FIX THEIR CHEAP PARTS WHEN THEY FAIL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE RAN OUT OF FUEL, DUE TO A DEFECTIVE FUEL GAUGE SENSOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE CONTACT CALLED NISSAN OF BAKERSFIELD (2800 PACHECO RD, BAKERSFIELD, CA 93313, (661) 835-8600) AND THE MANUFACTURER AND IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 138,000.

MY FRONT DIFFERENTIAL HALF SHAFT HAS BROKEN INSIDE MY DIFFERENTIAL CASE AND RUINED THE DIFF I UNDERSTAND THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH NISSAN TITAN TRUCKS. I LIKE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE TRUCK BUT I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSSUE AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN DONE.

NOTES FROM EMAIL RECEIVED FROM NISSAN SHOP 'TECH FOUND DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY NEED TO BE REPLACE FOR THE AIRBAG LIGHT TO GO OFF' AND ' ITS THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE SO ITS HARD TO SAY IF IT WILL KEEP YOU IN UR SEAT OR DISCHARGE THE SYSTEM IF IN AN ACCIDENT. SO THE SYSTEM WILL NOT WORK AS DESIGNED WITH THE LIGHT ON.' THIS SAME MODEL HAD A SEATBELT RECALL NISSAN RECALL : WIRE HARNESS 2005 NISSAN TITAN SO I WANTED TO SEE IF THIS WAS A RELATED ISSUE. THE COMPANY SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY $650 FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE. THE TRUCK IS OLDER BUT ONLY HAS 93K MILES ON IT AS MY DAD WAS THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND WAS IN FAILING HELP. THANK YOU.

I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND STOPPED FOR A RED TRAFFIC SIGNAL TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN ONTO A HIGHWAY. WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STOPPED RUNNING. I WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE ENGINE. I WAS BLOCKING THE LANE OF TRAFFIC TO ENTER THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED AS IT WOULD NOT START AND IT WAS A TRAFFIC HAZARD/BLOCKING TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP. THE MECHANIC DISCOVERED THE VEHICLE'S GAS TANK WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY, DESPITE THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWING THE GAS TANK JUST OVER 1/4 TANK FULL. THE MECHANIC FOUND A RECALL NOTICE, NHTSA RECALL BULLETIN #10V074000 FOR MY VEHICLE, 2005 NISSAN TITAN, DESCRIBING THE EXACT DEFECT THAT MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED; "THE FUEL GAUGE MAY INACCURATELY DISPLAY THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAS SOME FUEL, TYPICALLY ABOUT 1/4 TANK, WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS EMPTY." I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL DUE TO THE VIN, EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE SAME YEAR/MAKE/MODEL, 2005 NISSAN TITAN, AND HAS THE EXACT SAME DEFECT AS THE ONE DESCRIBED IN THE ABOVE MENTIONED NHTSA RECALL BULLETIN. HAD I ENTERED THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING, I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE CRASHED. SEE THE ATTACHED DIAGNOSTIC REPAIR INVOICE, NHTSA RECALL BULLETIN #10V074000, AND NISSAN SERVICE BULLETIN. I BELIEVE THAT MY VEHICLE IS OR SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE EXISTING NHTSA RECALL AND NISSAN SHOULD COMPLY WITH THE RECALL AND REPAIR THE DEFECT AT NO COST TO ME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE VEHICLE DID NOT ACCELERATED ABOVE 15 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. THE CONTACT'S FATHER HAD A DIAGNOSTIC CODE READER AND THE CODES WERE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE ACTUATOR AND THROTTLE CONTROL MOTOR RELAY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 155,000.

CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD FOUND BY DEALER ON AN INSPECTION BUT HAS BEEN CRACKED FOR SEVERAL YEARS. WHEN I RESEARCHED THE CRACK I FOUND IT TO BE AN ISSUE WITH NO RECALL.

WHEN IT GETS COLD MY DOORS WILL NOT OPEN AND IF I CAN GET THEM OPEN THEY WON'T LATCH NOT FUN HOLDING THE DOOR SHUT DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD....IS THERE A RECALL? TSB05118 ? THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN AN ISSUE VERY TIME IT GETS COLD OUTSIDE....FOR YEARS

I PURCHASED A USED 2005 NISSAN TITAN WITH ALMOST 117,000 MILES ON IT. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS 14 YEARS IT WAS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND WELL MAINTAINED. I SEARCHED THE NISSAN WEBSITE FOR ANY POSSIBLE RECALLS BECAUSE ANOTHER TITAN I HAD LOOKED AT HAD SEVERAL RECALLS. THE SEARCH SHOWED NO RECALLS FOR MY VIN NUMBER. THEN I CALLED THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER TO VERIFY THE INFORMATION. AFTER 2 SHORT TRIPS I NOTICED IT DID NOT USE ENOUGH GASOLINE TO MOVE THE GAUGE FROM SLIGHTLY OVER A QUARTER OF A TANK. ON THE THIRD TRIP THE ENGINE QUIT ON A RURAL PAVED ROAD, FORTUNATELY THERE WAS A LARGE GRASSY AREA I COULD COAST TO. I KNEW SOME TITANS HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWING AROUND A QUARTER OF A TANK WHEN THEY WERE EMPTY. FORTUNATELY AGAIN I WAS ONLY 2 MILES FROM HOME WHERE I HAD A GAS CAN WITH GAS IN IT AND MY WIFE WAS AT HOME TO BRING IT TO ME. AFTER FILLING ALL 5 GALLONS INTO THE TANK, THE TRUCK CRANKED UP AND DROVE WITH NO PROBLEMS. I IMMEDIATELY REFUELED AT THE NEXT FUEL STATION WHERE IT TOOK ANOTHER 23 GALLONS TO FILL UP, 28 GALLONS TOTAL, THAT IS THE ENTIRE CAPACITY OF THE FUEL TANK. I FEEL THAT NISSAN PUT MY AND MY FAMILIES LIFE AT RISK BY NOT ACKNOWLEDGING A WIDER PROBLEM AND EXPANDING THE FUEL LEVEL SENDING UNIT RECALL. FUEL LEVEL IS A SAFETY CONCERN RIGHT AFTER BRAKES, STEERING AND TIRES, NOT TO BE OVERLOOKED. THIS SITUATION COULD HAVE ENDED IN TRAGEDY, MANY PEOPLE HAVE LOST THEIR LIFE BECAUSE THEY RAN OUT OF GASOLINE AND IT PUT THEM IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. EVEN THOUGH THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF IS NOT A DANGER IN ITSELF, LIKE WITH AN AIRPLANE, IT'S WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE VEHICLE STOPS AND THE OTHER TRAFFIC IS STILL MOVING THAT RESULTS IN TRAGEDY.

FOR THE PAST THREE MONTHS, I'VE SPENT OVER $3,000 DIAGNOSING AND "FIXING" ERRONEOUS WARNING LIGHTS. THIS PAST WEEK, MY TRUCK (2005 TITAN) WOULD NOT START. THE FIRST TIME, IT JUST CRANKED THE STARTER, BUT WOULD NOT ENGAGE. NOW, I CAN TURN THE IGNITION TO START AND THE STARTER WON'T EVEN ENGAGE (NO "CLICKING" NOISE, NO NOISE WHATSOEVER). IT WILL START AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, BUT I HAVE TO WAIT AT LEAST 2-3 MINUTES BETWEEN EACH ATTEMPT. I'VE REPLACED THE ECM (AT MY OWN EXPENSE) AND IT STILL DOES NOT START PROPERLY. IT APPEARS (FROM READING ONLINE POSTS IN TITAN FORUMS) THAT THE ISSUE IS THE IPDM (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE). THE SYMPTOMS ALL LINE UP. I FEEL LUCKY THAT MY ENGINE HAS NOT COMPLETELY STOPPED WHILE DRIVING (YET). THIS IS AN UTTER HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE LOSES THEIR LIFE BECAUSE NISSAN WILL NOT ADDRESS THE IPDM PROBLEM AND RECALL/REPLACE THOSE THAT ARE FAULTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE SUN ROOF DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 128,000.

THE FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT READ CORRECTLY BELOW APPROXIMATELY A QUARTER TANK. IT OCCASIONALLY WILL STICK AND FLUCTUATE BUT ALWAYS AROUND A QUARTER TANK AND BELOW. THE FIRST TIME I REALIZED THE PROBLEM I HAD TO HAVE MY TRUCK TOWED HOME, THINKING IT WAS SOMETHING MAJOR WHEN ALL I DID WAS RUN OUT OF GAS.

REAR SPEAKERS STOPPED WORKING. AFTER RESEARCHING FOUND THAT THE WIRING HARNESS WAS PINCHED IN THE DOOR JAMB ON MY KING CAB REAR DOORS. THE WIRES WERE CUT DUE TO EXTENSIVE WEAR AND BENDING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE, THE FUEL GAUGE DID NOT REFLECT THE AMOUNT OF FUEL INSIDE THE TANK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE BEGAN APPROXIMATELY A MONTH AGO EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WAS FUELED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BILL SEIDLES NISSAN (10500 NW 12TH ST, MIAMI, FL 33172) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE FUEL SENDING UNIT FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 37522490. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT , NOW THE STEERING COLUMN SEPARATED FROM THE RACK AND PINION.

I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A RECALL ON 2005 THRU 2016 NISSAN TITANS FOR A FALTY GAS GAUGE BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED, I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS WITH MY GAUGE SHOWING A 1/4 TANK OF FUEL UP TO ALMOST A 1/2 ON MY GAUGE BUT STILL RAN OUT OF FUEL, I TOOK MY TRUCK TO KEY WEST, FL. AND THE FUEL PUMP WENT OUT AND IT COST ME OVER $700 TO HAVE IT REPLACED. NOW MY GAS GAUGE IS OFF EVEN MORE THAN BEFORE

7/15/19 3:40 PM RUSH HOUR, BEGAN ENTERING A STATE RD TO CROSS BOTH LANES, TRAFFIC TRAVELING BOTH DIRECTIONS POSTED 55 MPH MOVED IN A STRAIGHT LINE HALFWAY INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, BUT SUDDENLY COULD NOT ACCELERATE. HAD TO QUICKLY REVERSE TO AVOID TBONE SITUATION FROM BOTH SIDES. SCARED ME HORRIBLY. BACKED UP MORE TRIED AGAIN TO GO FORWARD BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CROSS BUT THE SAME THING HAPPENED. ENGINE WAS REVVING AT HIGH RPMS BUT TRUCK WOULD ONLY MOVE INCHES AT A TIME IN FORWARD MOTION. SO I TRAVELED BACKWARDS IN REVERSE THE LENGTH OF THE WHOLE STREET I WAS ON TO GET BACK TO MY DRIVEWAY AND BACKED UP MY DRIVEWAY WHERE I PARKED AND CALLED FOR A RIDE FROM MY HVAC TECH WHO WAS MEETING ME AT MY CHURCH TO INSTALL MUCH NEEDED AC UNIT. ONLY A COUPLE DAYS EARLIER, I HAD FLUID LEAKING AND TOOK THE TRUCK IN FOR REPAIR, THE TECH INFORMED ME THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AND ANTIFREEZE TANK HAD FAILED. THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE FLUSHED, THE TANK, RADIATOR AND FLUID REPLACED. HE TOLD ME IT HAPPENED ALL THE TIME WITH NISSANS. I WILL ATTACH INVOICE FROM HIGHLY REPUTABLE REPAIR SHOP.

MY 2005 NISSAN TORNADOES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OKLAHOMA TURNPIKE AND INTERSTATE I-44 CAUSING ONE OF THE LANES TO BE TEMPORARILY CLOSED. AFTER WARRINGTON A TOW TRUCK AND BEING TOWED TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALERSHIP, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE ONLY ISSUE WAS THE FUEL GAUGE WAS NOT REGISTERING THE CORRECT LEVEL OF GAS IN THE VEHICLE. ALTHOUGH THE GAUGE READ 3\8 OF A TANK REMAINING, THERE WAS NO FUEL IN THE TRUCK. THE NISSAN MECHANICS SAID THIS WAS A RECALL ON THIS YEAR TITAN, BUT ONCE HE CHECKED THE VIN, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT LISTED AS PART OF THE RECALL. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE AS THE VEHICLE CAN DIE AT ANY TIME IN ANY CONDITIONS CAUSING LANE CLOSURES OR WRECKS DUE TO THE SUDDEN FUEL ISSUE WITH NO WARNING. IF NISSAN HAS RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE ON THE 2005 TITAN, AND THIS ISSUE IS AFFECTING A 2005 TITAN, I BELIEVE WITHOUT DOUBT THEY HAVE MISTAKENLY OMITTED CERTAIN VIN NUMBERS. IF THIS ISSUE ULTIMATELY CAUSES INJURY OR IN THE WORST SCENARIO, A FATALITY DUE TO THEIR VEHICLE DYING IN THE MIDDLE OF A TRAFFIC SITUATION, NISSAN SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.

FRONT DIFFERENTIAL HAS AXLE POPPED OUT, AFTER RESEARCHING I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM THAT NISSAN HAS REDESIGNED THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. I HAVE TWO OPTIONS, FIRST TO TAKE TO A SHOP AND HAVE THEM REPLACE THE C CLIP ONLY TO FAIL AGAIN DOWN THE ROAD OR SECOND TO REPLACE THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL WITH THE FLAWED DESIGN FOR OVER $2500. WOULD LIKE TO SEE NISSAN ISSUE A RECALL TO CORRECT THE FLAWED DESIGN. THIS TRUCK IS USED ON ROAD ONLY AND I ONLY ENGAGE THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE WHEN IT SNOWS AND ONLY USE AT LOW SPEEDS FOR A SHORT DISTANCE, THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.

DASHBOARD LIGHT SHOWS AIR BAG ISSUE. HARNASS WAS REPLACED TWICE UNDER WARRANTY, THEY NOW WANT $800. TO FIX. AS ITS BEEN A SAFETY ISSUE AND FIXED TWICE I DON'T THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS.

WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY CITY STREET, MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN SHUT OFF UNEXPECTEDLY, CAUSING ME TO BE STALLED IN THE LANE OF TRAVEL. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART AND I WAS FORCED TO PUSH IT OUT OF THE LANE OF TRAVEL INTO A NEARBY BUSINESS PARKING LOT. THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER BUT WOULD NOT START. THE FUEL GAUGE READ JUST OVER 1/4 TANK AND NO TROUBLE LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED AND ALL GAUGES WERE WITHIN NORMAL RANGE. I WANTED TO TRY THE MOST SIMPLE THING FIRST SO I HAD MY SON BRING A FUEL CAN TO ME TO SEE IF THE TANK WAS EMPTY. THIS ENDED UP BEING THE CASE AND THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND I STOPPED AT THE FIRST FUEL STATION AND FILLED THE TANK UP. THE GAUGE WENT TO FULL AFTER REFUELING. I RESET MY TRIP ODOMETER AFTER REFUELING TO WATCH THE MILEAGE IN CASE THE GAUGE MALFUNCTIONED AGAIN AND IT DID. THE GAUGE WILL NOT MOVE BELOW 1/4 TANK. NISSAN ISSUED RECALL #10V074000 ON 3-3-2010 FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE. THE RECALL COVERS THE FUEL SENDING UNIT WHICH CAUSES THE FUEL GAUGE TO INACCURATELY DISPLAY REMAINING FUEL. I CONTACTED NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261 AND THE PHONE REP LOOKED UP MY VIN AND TOLD ME THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. MY TITAN IS WITHIN THE VEHICLE YEAR RANGE (2005-2009) THE RECALL COVERS AND IS PRESENTING WITH THIS EXACT ISSUE.

TAKITA RECALL I'M HAVING THIS PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER CALL NISSAN NOW A SOLUTION TO FIX ANY THING BASICALLY EVERY TIME I START MY VEHICLE IS MAKING A TICK TICK SOUND THOUGH IT WAS MY EXHAUST TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AFTER A PERIOD OF TIME HE FINALLY SAID IT WAS MANIFOLD IT HAS A CRACK I THINK IT'S A MANUFACTURER DEFECTIVE PART SO HERE I AM PLEASE HELP .NOTE 05 NISSAN TITAN LE...

FUEL GAGE SHOWS 1/4 TANK LEFT OF FUEL BUT CAR OUT OF FUEL WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL OF MY TRUCK GAVE OUT AND STARTED SMOKING. I LOST ALL POWER TO CONTROL THE MOMENTUM OF THE TRUCK, ALMOST CAUSING IT TO FLIP BECAUSE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF CHANGING LANES WHILE DRIVING 73 MPH. I MANAGED TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND UPON INSPECTION OF THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR AXLE I FOUND ALL FLUID HAD LEAKED OUT ONTO THE REAR WHEEL AND IT WAS SMOKING. I TRIED PUTTING THE TRUCK IN GEAR TO SEE IF I COULD MOVE BUT THERE WAS NO POWER BEING PROVIDED TO THE DRIVE TRAIN. THE ONLY POSSIBLE EXPLANATION IS THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL GAVE OUT. THE TRUCK ONLY HAS 91006 MILES ON IT AND IF THIS HAD OCCURRED ON ONE OF THE CURVES I AND MY FAMILY WOULD ALL BE IN THE HOSPITAL RIGHT NOW. THE TRUCK IS CURRENTLY PARKED AT A REPAIR SHOP AWAITING REPAIRS.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY NISSAN TITAN 2005 STARTED SHAKING WHILE DRIVING ON A MODERN TRAFFIC. I SUDDENLY STARTED LOSING CONTROL OF THE TRUCK AND THANK GOD I MANAGE EXIT THE FREEWAY WITH THE SPEED I MANAGE TO CONTROL. I PULL OVER TO THE RIGHT AND TRIED TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. MY TRUCK DIDN'T WANT TO TURN ON AND I HAD 1/4 OF GAS LEFT SO IT WAS IMPOSIBLE I NEEDED GAS AFTER TRYING DIFFERENT METHODS, I WALKED TO THE NEAREST GAS STATION, BOUGHT A GALLON OF GAS WITH ITS PROPER FUEL CONTAINER AND ADDED TO MY TRUCK THEN IT TURN ON. I CONTACTED MY NEAREST NISSAN DEALER AND THEY FIXED 2 RECALLS THAT MY TRUCK ALREADY HAD BUT THEY DIDN'T WANT TO FIX MY MAIN PROBLEM WHICH IS THE FUEL PUMP. AND I READ MANY NISSAN TITAN 2005 ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM, I FOUND THE RECALL NUMBER (10V074000) WHICH THE DEALER I ATTENDED DIDN'T WANT TO FIX IT. IT'S BEEN A BAD EXPERIENCE BECAUSE I COULD OF CRASH AND IT COULDN'T GONE WORSE DUE TO MY GAS NOT BEEN CORRECTLY PLUS I MISSED WORK AND IT'S JUST PUTTING STRESS ON ME I NEED THIS FIX THANK YOU

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE INACCURATELY DISPLAYED THAT THERE WAS FUEL IN THE VEHICLE (TYPICALLY ABOUT A QUARTER OF A TANK) WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND CONFIRMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000.

DRIVER/ PASSENGER SIDE EXHAUST MAINIFOLDS CRACKING EVERY 20,000 MILES CAUSING EXHAUST LEAKS IN CAB OF TRUCK..

MY TITAN STALLS WHILE DRIVING, A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION! REPLACED THE RECALLED ECM RELAY, THAT WORKED FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS, THEN THE SAME ISSUE. FROM EVERYTHING I HAVE RESEARCHED, THE IPDM IS ALSO A CULPRIT BUT NISSAN WON'T RECALL/REPLACE THESE.

THE FUEL GAUGE IS READING 1/4 TANK AND I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE WHEN MY CAR SHUT OFF-- THE READING WAS INCORRECT-- I WAS OUT OF GAS-- I HAD TO GET CAR TOWED-- HAD FAMILY IN CAR COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT-- THERE IS A RECALL OUT FOR THIS YEAR MAKE AND MODELS BUT NOT FOR MY CAR?? RECALL NUMBER: 10V074000

THE GAS GUAGE IM GONING TO SAY STICKS FOR A LACK OF WORDS BUT IT WILL SAY 1/4 TANK THEN INSTANTLY DROP WHICH WE HAVE GOTTEN USED TO SINCE THIS HAS BE ONGOING AND TODAY ON MY WAY TO THE GAS STATION IT WAS AT A QUARTER TANK AND MID TURN DIED LIKE IT RAN OUT OF GAS SINCE THEN I'VE FED IT MORE GAS AND GOT IT TO CRANK BUT ITS NOT DISPLAYING ANY GAS IN IT BY THE GUAGE OR INFORMATION CENTER AND GIVING IT GAS IS DIFFICULT I PUT THE PUMP IN AND START FILLING AND IT SPITS THE GAS BACK OUT.

I WAS DRIVING MY TRUCK ON A MAIN ROAD AND STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND WHEN I WENT TO ACCELERATE MY TRUCK WAS BARELY MOVING, UNLESS I PUT THE PEDAL TO THE GROUND. THE TRUCK WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND AFTER LOOKING INTO IT, THE CODES P1757 AND P1759 CAME UP FOR THE FRONT BREAK SOLENOID VALVE AND AFTER EXAMINING THE TCM, I NOTICED THE PIN SNAPPED FOR THE FRONT BREAK SOLENOID, HENCE MAKING THE TRUCK GO INTO LIMP MODE. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND NOTICED THAT MULTIPLE 2005 NISSAN TITANS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM OF THIS PIN SNAPPING CAUSING THE TRUCK TO GO INTO LIMP MODE BECAUSE THE SOLENOID RECEIVES NOW POWER. I WAS TURNING ONTO A MAIN ROAD WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 35 SO I ACCELERATED THINKING IT WOULD DO SO NORMAL AND MAKE IT BEFORE AN ONCOMING CAR WAS COMING, WHEN THE TRUCK WAS SLOWLY MOVING IN FRONT OF THE INCOMING CAR, I HAD TO QUICKLY PUT THE TRUCK INTO REVERSE TO AVOID THE ON COMING CAR BECAUSE I WAS EXCEPTING TO MAKE THE TURN BEFORE THE CAR WOULD COME BUT THE TRUCK GOING INTO LIMP MODE CAUSE THE TRUCK TO TAKE MUCH LONGER TO BARELY MAKE THAT TURN. I WAS LUCKY TO REVERSE QUICK ENOUGH FOR I DO NOT KNOW IF THE INCOMING CAR WOULD HAVE STOPPED OR SLOWED DOWN IN TIME.

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WILL READ NO LOWER THAN A QUARTER OF A TANK. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THE RECALL #10V074000. THAT RECALL IS FOR 2005 NISSAN TITANS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. THEY HOWEVER DENY THE CLAIM BECAUSE IT DOESN'T INCLUDE MY VIN NUMBER. I FEEL THAT THIS VIN NUMBER SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL AS WELL.

WHEN FUEL GAUGE GETS TO ABOUT A QUARTER OF A TANK IT NO LONGER READS IT STAYS ON THE SAME SPOT. LEAVING YOU TO BELIEVE YOU HAVE FUEL WHEN YOU DON'T.

THE IPDM (INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE HAS FAILED FOUR TIMES ON THIS VEHICLE. WHEN FAILURE OCCURS THE VEHICLE WILL STALL, NOT CRANK,AND RUNS ROUGH. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN TRAFFIC MANY TIMES WITH THESE FAILURES. THIS CREATES A HAZARDOUS SITUATION. I NEVER KNOW WHEN THIS FAILURE IS GOING TO OCCUR. THERE SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING CAUSING THESE PREMATURE FAILURES OF THIS MODULE.

GAS GAUGE WILL ONLY READ DOWN TO A 1/4 TANK LEVEL. THIS CAUSES ERRORS IN DETERMINING HOW MUCH FUEL IS IN THE TANK. I HAVE RUN OUT OF FUEL IN HEAVY TRAFFIC WHICH IS DANGEROUS AND COULD CREATE CAUSE FOR COLLISION. THIS MALFUNCTION NEEDS TO BE IMPROVED/

WHEN EXITING HIGHWAY ENGINE QUIT RUNNING. FUEL TANK SHOWED 1/4 TANK LEFT. HIGHWAY SUPPORT VEHICLE STOP TO HELP, GAVE ME SOME GAS, ABOUT 1 GALLON. STILL WOULD NOT START, HAD VEHICLE TOWED. PUT 2 MORE GALLONS OF FUEL IN TANK, VEHICLE STARTED. FOUND A NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V074000, FOR 2005-2009 TITAN'S FOR THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM, BUT FOR SOME REASON MY TITAN IS NOT COVERED EVEN THOUGH IT'S A 2005. I HAVE CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE WITH NO HELP. JUST ASKING WHY MY TITAN IS NOT COVERED? I HAVE UPLOADED A FILE OF THE CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER.

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN TITAN PICKUP WHICH I DRIVE MAINLY IN THE WINTER DUE TO MY JOB REQUIRING ME TO GO INTO WORK IN EVERY SNOW STORM. I HAVE ONLY 128,000 MI ON MY TRUCK. THE TRUCK SITS IN THE SUMMER TO SAVE ON GAS. AFTER THE TRUCK SAT FOR THREE MONTHS THIS SUMMER HAD TO CHANGE A LEAKY OIL PAN FROM RUST. ONCE THAT WAS FIXED I TOOK IT OUT TO READY IT FOR INSPECTION. WHILE DRIVING CAME TO A STOP SIGN BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR. TRIED PUMPING PEDAL AND HAD NO BRAKES AT ALL. ENGAGED THE E BRAKE AND HAD VERY LITTLE YET NEXT TO NO STOPPING FROM THAT. ENDED UP CONSTANTLY PUMPING BRAKES WITH NO SECONDARY CIRCUIT ENGAGING. I CONTINUED TO GO THROUGH 2 MORE STOP SIGNS BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A STOP. LUCKILY IT WAS LATER AT NIGHT AND THERE WASN'T MANY CARS ON THE ROAD OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A BAD ACCIDENT. AFTER GETTING THE TRUCK TOWED HOME I HAD PULLED THE LEFT FRONT INNER FENDER LINER OUT TO DISCOVER 2 JUNCTION BLOCKS WITH 3 LINES COMING IN AND GOING OUT. ALL THREE LINES HAD BURST AT THE SAME TIME CAUSING ME TO LOOSE ALL BRAKES. I TOOK A PICTURE OF THIS SO EVERYONE CAN SEE. NISSAN SHOULD PROVIDE AN EXTRA COVERING OR SOMETHING TO KEEP THE ROAD SALT FROM GETTING TO THESE LINES BECAUSE AS THESE TRUCKS GET OLDER I AM SURE PEOPLE WILL EXPERIENCE THE SAME THING AS ME BUT, MAY NOT BE AS LUCKY TO AVOID A BAD CRASH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE SEAT BELTS AND AIR BAGS FAILED TO OPERATE PROPERLY. WHEN THE CONTACT FASTENED THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT TO THE HARNESS, THE MESSAGE "SEAT BELT, AIR BAGS" IMMEDIATELY FLASHED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL TANK FAILED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. UPON FILLING THE FUEL TANK HALFWAY, FUEL SPILLED ONTO THE GROUND. IT TOOK THE CONTACT APPROXIMATELY FIVE MINUTES OR MORE TO FILL THE FUEL TANK HALFWAY. COURTESY NISSAN OF TAMPA (3800 WEST HILLSBOROUGH AVENUE, TAMPA, FLORIDA 33614, (813) 235-0318) DIAGNOSED THAT THE WIRING HARNESS WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT A RECALL LETTER WAS RECEIVED FOR THE FUEL TANK; HOWEVER, A VIN SEARCH SHOWED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ASSOCIATED WITH THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND PROVIDED THE CONTACT WITH CASE NUMBERS: 28501379 AND 32622188. THE MANUFACTURER ALSO PROVIDED THE OPTION OF A VEHICLE TRADE-IN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

THE AIR CONDTIONING DOOR ACTUATORS COMMONLY GO OUT CAUSING THE SYSTEM TO NOT BE ABLE TO PERFORM THE DUTY OF DEFROSTING THE WINDSHIELD. EFFECTED ACTUATORS ARE BOTH THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND AIR FLOW CONTROL. THE PROBLEM HAS EFFECTED ALL NISSAN TITANS 2004-2015 HOWEVER A RECALL HAS ONLY BEEN ISSUED TO 2009 YEAR AND NEWER TITANS.

I NOTICED OIL IN MY DRIVEWAY. HOWEVER, I WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOURCE INITIALLY. THE LAST INCIDENT I RETURNED HOME FROM WORK. AS I WAS ABOUT TO LEAVE, I NOTICED MORE OIL ON THE GROUND. I STARTED LOOKING UNDER MY TRUCK AGAIN. THIS TIME I FOUND EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL ON THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE. I TOOK MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN TO THE REPAIR SHOP. UPON COMPLETION OF THEIR INSPECTION, I WAS GIVEN A COPY OF NISSAN'S SERVICE BULLETIN REFERENCE #NTB10-032 2004 - 2008 TITAN, REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKS. THEIR LISTED REQUIRED ACTION IS TO "INSTALL THE NEW AXLE SHAFT ASSEMBLY---WHICH INCLUDES A NEW RETAINER, AXLE BEARING, OIL SEAL, BEARING CAGE, AND ABS ROTOR---LISTED IN THE PARTS INFORMATION TABLE". IMMEDIATELY BELOW ACTION IS A NOTE WHICH STATES "DO NOT REPLACE THE ENTIRE REAR AXLE ASSEMBLY FOR THIS INCIDENT, IF IT SHOULD OCCUR". I CONTACTED NHTSA WHO THEN REFERRED ME TO NISSAN @ 800-647-7261. ONCE IN CONTACT WITH NISSAN, THE REPRESENTATIVE ASKED FOR THE LAST SIX NUMBERS OF THE VIN, PLACED ME ON HOLD, AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES SHE CAME BACK AND REFERRED ME TO MY INITIAL POINT OF CONTACT. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL, NOT JUST A SERVICE BULLETIN. IT WOULD BE VERY TRAGIC TO HEAR OF A FATALITY AS A RESULT OF A FAULTY PRODUCT. READING THE MANY REVIEWS FROM TITAN OWNERS IT IS EVIDENT THE PART IS A DEFECT AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH.

I TOOK MY TRUCK TO YOUNGBLOOD NISSAN IN SPRINGFIELD AND THEY SAID THAT THEY CANT FIXED MY RECALL BECAUSE OF THE LINES WERE RUSTED SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND IS GOING TO CHARGE ME 1200.00 BUT THE RECALL SHOULD COVERIT

I WAS LOOKING ON THIS WEBSITE AND SEEN 6 RECALLS FOR THE 2005 NISSAN TITAN WHICH I HAVE AND AND NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE WIRE HARNESS ON THE DRIVERSIDE REAR DOOR. WELL ALL THOSE WIRES ARE BROKEN OFF NO MUSIC FROM THE REAR SPEAKERS ON EITHER SIDE. I'M HAVING PROBLEMS WERE I TRY TO ACCELERATE AND THE TRUCK BARELY WANTS TO MOVE AND SOMETIMES TAKES LONG TO FINALLY START. WHEN YOUR IDLING IT SOUNDS AS IF IT'S GOING TO BREAK DOWN. WHEN THE A.C. IS ON IT MAKES A VERY LOUD ANNOYING SOUND. I'VE ADDED PICS OF WHAT I FOUND ON YOUR WEBSITE AS I'VE INCLUDED A PIC OF THE FRAYED WIRES FROM THE HARNESS AND NISSAN OF MELBOURNE ISN'T TRYING TO FIX THIS BEING A RECALLED PART.

WHILE DRIVING ONE THE HIGHWAY I NOTICED MY VEHICLE START TO SHUTTER AND SHUT DOWN AS IF IT RAN OUT OF GAS. MY FUEL GAUGE SAID HALF A TANK SO I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS THE PROBLEM UNTIL I WALKED TO THE GAS STATION TO FILL UP A GAS CAN. I PUT 2 GALLONS OF GAS INTO MY FUEL TANK THAT SAID I HAD A HALF A TANK. I STARTED MY TRUCK AND IT STARTED. SINCE THAT INCIDENT IT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES, THE MOST RECENT BEING YESTERDAY 07/02/18. I REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP TODAY IN HOPES THAT IT FIXES THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 80 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE FUEL GAUGE REFLECTED A QUARTER OF A TANK AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT CALLED A FAMILY MEMBER TO BRING SOME FUEL. AS SOON AS THE FUEL WAS ADDED, THE VEHICLE STARTED NORMALLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED THREE OTHER TIMES, BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD START WHEN FUEL WAS ADDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 210,000.

I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS TWICE WHILE I WAS DRIVING. THE GAS GAUGE STILL SHOWED OVER A QUARTER OF A TANK. BOTH TIMES I WAS ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET. I LOST POWER STEERING AND BRAKES.

THE FUEL GAUGE SEEMS TO WORK INTERMITTENTLY AND AFTER RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM ONLINE IT APPEARS THERE IS A RECALL AFFECTING MY TRUCK, CAMPAIGN ID # R1010 NHTSA 10V-074.

DRIVING DOWN A BUSY ROAD ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK AND VEHICLE SPUTTERS AS IF OUT OF FUEL UNTIL IT DIED. COULD NOT GET TRUCK TO CRANK AND WAS CLEARLY A LACK OF FUEL. FUEL GAUGE READ 1/4 TANK FULL EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED IN CAMPAIGN 10V074000. FORTUNATRLY A POLICE OFFICER ASSISTED IN PUSHING MY TRUCK INTO A PARKING LOT. I CALLED A FAMILY MEMBER TO DRIVE UP WITH A GAS CONTAINER TO PUT A FEW GALLONS IN. SURE ENOUGH, CRANKED RIGHT UP. THE FOLLOWING DAY, I CONTACTED NISSAN OF USA, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CAMPAIGN AND BECAUSE OF THE AGE AND MILEAGE OF MY TRUCK I WOULD NOT RECEIVE ASSISTANCE IN THE REPAIR OF THIS MANUFACTURER DEFECT.

2005 NISSAN TITAN 121K MILES. CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD CAUSING A EXHAUST LEAK. THERE IS A STRONG EXHAUST SMELL IN THE CAB WHEN TRAVELING AT SLOWER SPEEDS (UNDER 35MPH). IT HAS BEEN SO BAD AT TIMES IT MAKES YOU LIGHT HEADED AND SICK TO YOUR STOMACH. THIS COULD CAUSE SOMEONE TO PASS OUT WHILE DRIVING CAUSING THEM TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THEIR VEHICLE. DEFIANTLY A SAFETY HAZARD! ALSO CAUSING A DECREASE IN GAS MILEAGE AS WELL AS A LOUD KNOCKING/PUFFING NOISE UPON ACCELERATION. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET FINDING 100'S IF NOT 1000'S OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS! WHY HAS THIS NEVER BEEN RECALLED? THE SAFETY ISSUE ALONE SHOULD WARRANT A RECALL, ITS OBVIOUSLY A FAULTY COMPONENT!

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HWY AND MY ENGINE SHUT DOWN. I MADE IT TO THE SHOULDER, PUT IT IN PARK TURN THE KEY OFF THEN STARTS RIGHT BACK UP. STARTED YESTERDAY, AND DOES IT ABOUT EVERY TEN MILES. STARTS RIGHT BACK UP EVERY TIME. SOUNDS LIKE THE IPDM BUT FENTON NISSAN IN LEES SUMMIT MISSOURI SAID MY TRUCKS NOT RECALLED. PLEASE HELP! NO SPIT AND SPUTTER, IT JUST DIES OUT OF NO WHERE. IT ALMOST CAUSED A REAR END COLLISION WHILE PULLIN ON INTERSTATE. THIS RELAY PROBLEM IS VERY UNSAFE. PLEASE HELP!

COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FAILURE DUE TO FAULTY RADIATOR DESIGN. COOLANT MIXED WITH ATF, FROM INTERNAL TRANSFER COOLER LEAK.

THE AXLE SHAFT ON THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL CAME OUT CAUSING FAILURE TO THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER 2005 TITAN LE. I HAVE EXPERIENCED A BRAKING ISSUE 8-10 TIMES. WHILE DRIVING IN NORMAL TRAFFIC CONDITIONS ON THE FREEWAY TRAFFIC BEGINS TO SLOW, I APPLIED THE BRAKES. THE ENTIRE TRUCK BEGAN TO VIOLENTLY SHUTTER, THE RED BRAKE ICON ON THE DASH CAME ON, AND THE BRAKE PEDDLE WENT ALMOST ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I HAD TO PULL TO THE RIGHT TO AVOID HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. THE HARDER YOU PUSH THE MORE THE BRAKES SEEM TO FAIL AND THE TRUCK SHAKES HARDER. THE ONLY THING THAT FIXES THE ISSUE IS TO STOP THE TRUCK AND TURN IT OFF AND RESTART IT. EVERYTHING GOES BACK TO NORMAL AS IF IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME 8-10 TIMES SINCE OWNING THIS TRUCK AS NEW. I HAVE READ MANY INCIDENTS ONLINE IN BLOGS ETC.THAT ARE ALMOST EXACTLY AS I HAVE DESCRIBED. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. I WHOLE HEARTILY DISAGREE WITH THEM. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT IS ULTIMATELY GOING TO CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME AT FREEWAY SPEEDS, NORMAL RESIDENTIAL SPEEDS (25MPH) AND EVERYWHERE IN BETWEEN. LAST INCIDENT OCCURRED ON 11/8/2017.

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER (RIVERHEAD NISSAN, 1800 OLD COUNTRY RD, RIVERHEAD, NY 11901, (631) 369-0600) WHO STATED THAT THEY REPAIRED THE VEHICLE WITH A WARRANTY REPAIR CONCERNING THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THE CONTACT REPORTED TO THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART FAILED AGAIN AND WAS UNCERTAIN IF THE MANUFACTURER WOULD PROVIDE A SOLUTION WITH NO RECALL CAMPAIGN. THE WARRANTY REPLACEMENT PART PROVIDED NO SOLUTION AND, A FEW YEARS LATER, THERE WAS A CRACK AND LEAK WHICH FROM THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V517000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISOCNNECT.

I HAVE BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT REAR AXLE SEALS REQUIRING REPLACEMENT DUE TO SEVERE LEAKING. DEALER ESTIMATE AT $600.00. I HAVE READ FORUMS REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND IT APPEARS TO BE JUST SHORT OF A RECALL? 2005 NISSAN TITAN 2WD WITH 84,000 MILES ON IT.

TAKATA RECALL .A RECALL HAS BEEN NOTED FFOR THIS MATTER. I TOOK MY TRUCK TO THE DEALER THE DAY AFTER I FOUND OUT THROUGH MEDIA. THE DEALER INFORMED ME THEY COULD NOT COMPLETE THE RECALL DUE TO A SYSTEM ISSUE WITH MY TRUCK NOT ALLOWING THE UPLOAD OF DATA. THE DEALER STATED TO COMPLETE THE RECALL I WOULD NEED TO PURCHASE A $900 UNIT TO ALLOW MY TRUCK TO UPLOAD THE DATA REQUIRED.

THE CONTACT REPAIRED THE VEHICLE HIMSELF; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. HAVE RAN OUT OF GAS TWICE WHILE THE FULE GAUGE WOULD BE AT HALF.

TRUCK WILL NOT BRAKE QUICKLY. I HAVE HAD TO RUN OFF THE ROAD MULTIPLE TIMES DUE TO CARS IN FRONT OF ME BRAKING. TRUCK HAS TROUBLE SLOWING DOWN.

ON THE KING CAB REAR DOORS THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE AIR BAG BREAK DUE TO THE MANUFACTURE DESIGN OF PLACING COOPER WIRING IN A PLACE THAT FREQUENTLY BENDS. AS A RESULT THE WIRE COME APART AND CAUSE THE AIRBAG LIGHT TO REGISTER A FAULT WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE AT A STOP. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. A LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED.

MY FUEL GAUGE STOPS DROPPING ONCE IT GETS BETWEEN 1/2 AND 1/4 TANK OF GAS. I ALL WAYS CHECK MY AND RESET MY TRIP ODOMETER AND KNOW WHEN I NEED TO REFUEL BUT MY FUEL GAUGE DOES NOT MATCH WHAT MY TRIP ODOMETER IS READING. I WENT ONLINE AND CHECKED TO FIND OUT IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM AND DISCOVERED THAT THERE IS A SAFETY RECALL ON 340,000 2005 TITANS BUT NOT FOR MINE. NOT SURE WHY SOME 2005 TITANS ARE IN THE RECALL BUT NOT ALL EVEN THOUGH MANY MORE HAVE THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. SEEMS TO ME A SAFETY RECALL SHOULD BE FOR ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES AND NOT JUST SOME. MINE AND MY FAMILIES SAFETY SHOULD BE JUST AS IMPORTANT TO NSSAN.

MY NISSAN TITAN HAS ROUGHLY 31,000 MILES ON IT OVER THE LAST 12 YEARS . THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD IS CRACKED . I DID A SEARCH TO SEE IF THIS WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND THERE ARE TONS OF COMPLAINTS AND PICTURES ON THE INTERNET SO I WAS AMAZED TO SEE THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS . MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE ISSUE TAKEN CARE OF UNDER THE 8 YEAR 80,000 MILE EMISSIONS WARRANTY . THE ONLY PROBLEM IS MANY PEOPLE ( INCLUDING MYSELF ) ARE PAST THE 8 YEARS EVEN THOUGH WAY UNDER THE MILEAGE . MY TRUCK IS PRACTICALLY BRAND NEW INSIDE AND OUT AND HAS BEEN SPARINGLY USED AND STILL NOW I HAVE HARMFUL EXHAUST FUMES LEAKING OUT AND THE TRUCK IS ROBBED OF POWER .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT OBSERVED AN ABNORMAL ODOR INSIDE THE VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING.

I WAS DRIVING AND MADE A TURN FROM ONE MAJOR STREET TO THE NEXT. I MERGED INTO THE MIDDLE LANE OF A 3 LANE ROAD AND MY TRUCK COMPLETELY LOST POWER. THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME SQUEALED ITS TIRES TO AVOID RUNNING INTO THE BACK OF ME. I LET THE TRUCK CONTINUE TO MOVE WITHOUT APPLYING BRAKES OR I WOULD HAVE ENDED UP STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A 3 LANE BUSY ROAD. THE TRUCK WOULDN'T EVEN TURN INTO THE VERY RIGHT LAND WITHOUT ME TURNING THE WHEEL HARD. I PULLED OFF ONTO A SIDE STREET AND CALLED AAA. THE VEHICLE REGISTER AT A 1/4 OF A TANK OF GAS. THE AAA DRIVER ADDED $2 WORTH OF GAS TO THE TANK BUT IT DID NOT START. I WAS TOWED TO A AAA APPROVED SHOP ABOUT 2 MILES AWAY AND WHEN THE SHOP OWNER WENT TO TAKE THE TRUCK OFF THE TOW BED IT STARTED RIGHT UP. THE OWNER SAID THAT IT WAS JUST OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGH THE GAUGE READ A 1/4 OF A TANK. I WENT DIRECTLY TO A GAS STATION AND IT TOOK 25.695 GALLONS OF GAS. THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2005 NISSAN TITANS BUT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT PULLING IT UP. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 10V074000 INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE.

I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE AT WORK WHEN I HEARD THE FIRST CLUNK. THEN LATER ON THAT DAY I WAS TURNING TO THE LEFT IT CLUMPED AGAIN NOW WHEN GOING STAIGHT IT CLUNK HAD AND THEN I DRAINED THE OIL AND GAS METAL TEETH FROM THE SPIDER GEAR WAS IN THE OIL. IT ALL STARTED WHEN I WAS MOVING AT 10MPH OR LES.

CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLDS. NISSAN HAS A POOR DESIGN AND I HAVE CHECKED ON LINE AND 100'S OF OTHERS HAVE COMMENTED ABOUT THE CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLDS. THESE ARE A SAFETY CONCERN AS I CAN SMELL THE EXHAUST GAS AROUND THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK, INSTEAD OF IT BEING PROPERLY TRANSFERRED OUT THE EXHAUST SYSTEM AS DESIGNED. NISSAN IS NOT SUPPORTING THE REQUIRED REPLACEMENT WHICH SHOULD BE FREE. THE REPAIR COST ARE IN THE THOUSANDS NOT ACCEPTABLE WHEN IT IS NISSAN POOR DESIGN ALL ALL TRUCKS WITH THESE MANIFOLDS ARE AFFECTED.

THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE AXLE KEEPS FALLING OUT OF THE TRANSFER CASE. I BELIEVE DUE TO A C-CLIP FAILURE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE TRUCK IS IN MOTION AND THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED.

ON FEBRUARY 25, 2017 MY SON WAS GOING DOWN THE ROAD AND HIS 2005 NISSAN TITAN TRUCK COMPLETELY DIED, LOST ALL POWER STEERING, BRAKES, EVERYTHING. MY SON WAS ABLE TO GET THE TRUCK OFF THE BUSY ROAD WITHOUT GETTING REAR ENDED, WHICH WAS HARD TO DO FOR A 20 YEAR OLD. ONCE WE HAD THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED, WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A FAULTY FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT. THE VEHICLE SHOWED OVER 1/4 OF A TANK OF GAS, BUT IN FACT, IT WAS EMPTY. UPON DOING SOME RESEARCH, I FOUND OTHER 2005 NISSAN TITAN'S WERE RECALLED WITH THIS SAME ISSUE, HOWEVER, NISSAN TOLD ME, THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE MY SON COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED FROM THE TRUCK DYING AS HE WAS GOING 50 MPH DOWN THE ROAD. I HAVE TRIED TO SPEAK WITH NISSAN, ASKING THEM TO LOOK INTO MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE, SINCE THERE IS A PAST HISTORY OF THIS PART FAILING ON OTHER TITANS. AFTER 3 PHONE CALLS, ALL THEY WILL TELL ME IS, IT ISN'T THEIR FAULT, THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND RECALL DOESN'T INVOLVE MY VIN. I AGAIN ASKED THEM TO CONSIDER EXPANDING THE RECALL TO INCLUDE MY VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD NO. THE TRUCK IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP TO GET THIS FIXED, BUT IT'S A SHAME THAT NISSAN WON'T EVEN CONSIDER LOOKING INTO THIS WHEN THEY KNOW IT'S AN ISSUE WITH OTHER TITANS. THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN IN THE FAMILY SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW.

REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKS IN THIS MODEL IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM YET NISSAN STILL CHOOSES TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT ,IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE IT LEAKS FLUID CONTINUOUSLY ON TO THE BACK BREAKING SYSTEM SO NOT ONLY COULD IT COMPRISE YOUR WHOLE BACK END BUT ALSO YOUR ABILITY TO STOP YOUR VEHICLE SAFELY,THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED THOUSANDS OF TIMES TO YOUR AGENCY IN THE MEANTIME THE CONSUMERS CONTINUE TO REPLACE THESE EVERY 30-40,000 MILES JUST TO MAINTAIN THEIR SAFETY AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD WHEN I FEEL IT IS TIME NISSAN ADDRESS THIS AND TAKE THE NECESSARY STEPS TO ENSURE THE BRAKING SYSTEM IN THESE VEHICLES IS NOT CREATING A POTENTIAL HAZARD TOP THE DRIVER OR OTHERS ON THE ROAD .

THE BRAKES FAILED DUE TO A PIN HOLE IN THE LEFT FRONT BRAKE LINE. THERE ARE THREE FITTINGS THAT ARE IN THE SAME LOCATION ON THE TRUCK. ALL THREE SHOWED SIGNS OF CORROSION. THE ONE THAT FAILED LOOKS LIKE IT HAD BEEN DAMAGED ON INSTALLATION. THIS TRUCK IS OVER 11 YEARS OLD AND HAS SPENT MOST OF THE TIME OUTSIDE. IT HAS BEEN LOCATED IN SOUTH FLORIDA THE ENTIRE TIME SO HAS NOT SEEN ANY SALT. ALL THE OTHER FITTINGS AND LINES LOOK FINE. YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURE THE FLAT SPOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE HOLE. THERE HAS BEEN NO WORK DONE ON THIS LINE SINCE THE TRUCK WAS NEW. (I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER) I HAVE THE FAILED LINE. I REPAIRED IT MYSELF WITH PARTS FROM THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITH THE TRUCK ON MY PROPERTY AND THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT INVOLVED. SEE ATTACHED PHOTO OF THE HOLE IN THE LINE. THIS LINE COMES FROM THE ABS UNIT TO A FITTING CLOSE TO THE FRONT WHEEL.

NISSAN PREVIOUSLY ISSUED A RECALL DEALING WITH THE WIRING HARNESS ISSUE, #06V459000 TO REROUTE AND CHANGE THE WIRING COVER. THIS AFFECTS THE AIRBAGS AND THE OPERATION OF THE SEAT BELTS, AS WELL AS THE AUDIO SYSTEM. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS FLASHING AND THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR SPEAKER DOESN'T WORK. THE RECALL WAS JUST A TEMPORARY COVER UP OF THE PROBLEM. THE ISSUE CAME UP AGAIN AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT, WANTING TO CHARGE UPWARDS OF $1000 TO REPLACE THE WIRING HARNESSS, A PROBLEM THEY ARE ALREADY AWARE OF. THE RECALL DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM, ONLY A TEMPORARY COVER-UP.

2005 NISSAN TITAN, THE HEATER WORKS INTERMITTENTLY, THE FAN BLOWS FINE ALONG WITH THE A/C, IT DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF THE TRUCK IS MOVING OR STATIONARY.THERE IS A CLICKING IN THE DASH WHEN I SWITCH THE CONTROL FROM, FLOOR TO DASH OR FROM DEFROST TO FLOOR, ETC. I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK IN 2015, BUT ASSUME IT HAS BEEN A PREVIOUS PROBLEM.

CERTAIN 2005 NISSAN TITANS WERE RECALLED IN CAMPAIGN #10V074000 DUE TO THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWING THAT THERE WAS FUEL REMAINING WHEN THE TANK WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY. THIS OCCURRED TO MY VEHICLE IN FEBRUARY 2013. THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN AND I LOST POWER STEERING. I WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO TURN WITH ENOUGH FORCE TO LEAVE THE ROADWAY. AFTER CONTACTING NISSAN, THEY DECLARED MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND WAS NOT AFFECTED ALTHOUGH I WAS HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE.

I WAS RECENTLY DRIVING MY TRUCK DOWN INTERSTATE I-95 IN PHILADELPHIA WHEN I OUT OF NO WHERE I HEARD A LOW PITCHED HOWELING NOISE, I WAS PASSING THREW A CONSTRUCTION ZONE SO I COULDN'T PULL ONTO THE SHOULDER AND LOOK FOR A ISSUE. A FEW SECONDS LATER I HEAR A LOUD SERIES OF THUMPING AND MY TRUCK IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE IS TRAVELING SIDEWAYS AT ROUND 45MPH, I SWERVED AND MISSED SEVERAL CARS AND MANAGED TO JUST MISS THE GUARD RAIL AND COME TO A STOP. IF I WAS TRAVELING ANYTHING OVER 45MPH, IT WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN PRETTY FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE. I THEN INSPECTED THE VEHICLE TO FIND THAT THE REAR AXLE HAD LOCKED UP THE REAR WHEELS AND THE DRIVE SHAFT HAD TORN OUT OF THE REAR AXLE. DO TO THE REAR WHEELS SUDDENLY BECOMING LOCKED, MADE THE TRUCK NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER AND VERY DANGEROUS WHEN YOU CONSIDER THE SIZE OF THE VEHICLE. I HAD IT TOWED TO FIND THAT THE REAR AXLE HAD FILLED WITH MOISTURE DO TO A DEFECT IN THE SEAL & VENT OF THE SET UP. I HAVE COME TO FIND OUT THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE IN THE NISSAN TITAN WORLD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND RESTARTED AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WAS NOT REGISTERING.

THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ARE FAULTY AND CRACK ALLOWING DEADLY CARBON MONOXIDE EXHAUST GASES TO ENTER THE CAB OF THE TRUCK WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION. THIS COULD CAUSE THE DRIVER TO LOSE CONSCIOUSNESS AND CRASH. IT WAS ONLY AFTER MY 6TH LONG ROAD TRIP (3+ HOURS DRIVING) DID I DISCOVER I WAS BEING POISONED BY CARBON MONOXIDE. I TOOK MY TRUCK TO AN EXHAUST REPAIR COMPANY AND AS SOON AS I MENTIONED MY VEHICLE THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME HE WAS 99% SURE I HAD A CRACKED MANIFOLD. HE LATER CONFIRMED THIS WITH A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WHICH REVEALED BOTH MANIFOLDS CRACKED AND LEAKING EXHAUST FUMES INTO THE CAB. THIS COULD HAVE KILLED ME JUST SITTING IN A PARKING LOT! I THOUGHT I WAS JUST GETTING BAD HEADACHES FROM THE LONG DRIVE AND MY NAUSEA WAS FROM THE EXTREME HEADACHES. AFTER THIS HAPPENING SO MANY TIMES I KNEW THERE HAD TO BE MORE TO THIS. THINK ABOUT SOMEBODY DRIVING, BEING POISONED TO THE POINT TO WHERE THEY PULL OFF THE ROAD TO REST AND TRY TO SLEEP OFF THEIR HEADACHE IN A RUNNING VEHICLE TO STAY WARM AND END UP DYING. NISSAN NEEDS TO FIX THIS. I DON'T WANT A NEW DEFECTIVE MANIFOLD, I WANT A FIX!

THE TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY SUDDENLY; THE RPM'S REVVED UP ACCESSIBLY TO 3000-4000 WITHOUT GOING INTO GEAR. AFTER I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER I WITNESSED FLUID SPEWING ALL OVER MY ENGINE, OUT ON THE SIDES OF MY VEHICLE, AND UNDER HOOD.

AFTER DRIVING FOR 250-300 MILES WITH STOPS FOR FUEL AND FOOD THE ENGINE LOSES POWER AND QUITS. AFTER GETTING OFF THE ROAD AND TURNING OFF THE IGNITION FOR SEVERAL MINUTES THE ENGINE WILL RESTART AND RUN FOR 10 T0 20 MINUTES UNTIL IT QUITS AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS AT SPEED OF 70+/- MPH. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR 6 OR 8 MONTHS. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO SEVERAL SHOPS AND SEVERAL PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED ACCORDING TO THE ECM SERVICE ENGINE CODES. NOTHING HAS SOLVED THE PROBLEM. TOOK THE TRUCK TO NISSAN DEALER FOR HELP. THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND SAID THEY HAD NO RECORD OF ANY SUCH PROBLEM AND COULD NOT DO ANYTHING UNLESS THEY DROVE THE TRUCK AND HAD THE PROBLEM HAPPEN WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THE ENGINE TO QUIT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND AT THIS POINT NEITHER DOES NISSAN. I BELIEVE THIS LOSE OF POWER IS AS DANGEROUS AS THE GM IGNITION PROBLEM WHICH CAUSED A LOST OF POWER. SINCE I NEED THE TRUCK FOR TRANSPORTATION I CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT BUT TRY TO STAY IN THE RIGHT LANE SO I CAN GET OFF THE ROAD WHEN IT QUITS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WERE FUMES COMING FROM THE VEHICLE CAUSING THE CONTACT TO BECOME NAUSEOUS.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 155,000.

REAL AXLE SEAL LEAK. NISSAN DOES NOT RECOMMEND REPLACING THE SEAL BUT SAYS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE AXLE AND TO REPLACE AXLE. IF NISSAN KNOWS THE AXLE IS FAULTY AND REQUIRES THE AXLE TO BE REPLACED INSTEAD OF JUST REPLACING THE SEAL THEN THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE AND PAY FOR THE FIX UNDER A RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

DRIVING TO WORK IN THE MORNING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, AT APPROX 65 MPH, I EXPERIENCED MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN SHUT COMPLETELY DOWN LOSING ALL POWER TO THE ENGINE RESULTING IN A LOSS OF POWER TO ALL SUPPORTING ENGINE ACCESSORIES INCLUDING THE POWER STEERING AND ABS. I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING, BY DOWN SHIFTING TO NEUTRAL, WHICH FAILED. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO FIND A FIND A SPOT TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE BUSY HIGHWAY AND CALL FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. IT WAS LATER DETERMINED THAT I HAD RUN OUT OF FUEL, DESPITE THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWING WELL OVER 1/4 OF A TANK OF USABLE FUEL. AT THIS POINT I DISCOVERED A RECALL CAMPAIGN FOR THE 2005 - 2009 NISSAN TITAN INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V074000) AND PROCEEDED TO CALL THE PHONE NUMBER LISTED IN THE REMEDY PORTION OF THE RECALL. WHEN SPEAKING WITH NISSAN IT WAS DETERMINED THAT MY VIN WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS MADE AT THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP BY NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS TO CONFIRM MY FINDING AND SEE IF THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO COMPLETE THE REPAIR FOR ME UNDER THE RECALL. WHEN I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE VEHICLE VIN WASN'T APART OF THE RECALL, BUT DID SEE A SERVICE BULLETIN ASSOCIATED WITH THAT MAKE AND MODEL. IT WAS ULTIMATELY DETERMINED THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO RECOVER WARRANTY MONEY FROM NISSAN, AND INFORMED ME THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR OUT OF POCKET. BOTTOM LINE, IT CAME DOWN TO A MONETARY ISSUE NOT A SAFETY FACTOR ISSUE FOR NISSAN. IT WAS OBVIOUS MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES AS THE OTHER 2005 NISSAN TITAN VIN'S IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN. HOWEVER, BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE IN TRYING TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER, IT IS OBVIOUS NISSAN FEELS THE ONUS OF LIABILITY ULTIMATELY FALLS ON ME AS A CONSUMER AND NOT THEM, IF I WOULD LIKE TO OPERATE MY VEHICLE IN A SAFE MANNER. UPDATED 10/9/15 *LN UPDATED 12/21/2015 *JS

THE TRUCK STALLED OUT NO POWER HAD TO CRASH INTO SHOULDER OF ROAD AND EMBANKMENT. GLAD WE SURVIVED THE BUMPY CRASH, I JUST HAD SUSPENSION WORK DONE THAT SAVED US. WE READ THE IPDM BOARD OR ECM RELAY IS BAD AND CAUSES THIS STALLING TO HAPPEN. PART NUMBER FOR ECM RELAY 284B7-CW29.

REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED. REAR SEAL AND E LOCKER FAILED

HI, I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN AND THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD HAS CRACKED IN THE SAME SPOT TWICE NOW AND IT IS BEFORE THE CAT SO THAT MEANS ITS NOW A GROSS POLLUTER. THE PROBLEM IS YOU GET IT FIXED AND THEY PUT THE SAME PART BACK ON THAT CRACKS AGAIN BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T CHANGED THE DESIGN. THERE ARE 3 OTHER TITANS IN MY TOWN AND ALL OF US HAVE THE SAME STORY. ALSO THE SWAY BAR MOUNT ON ALL OF OURS ARE BROKE WITCH RESULTS IN VERY POOR HANDLING. I HOPE IT CAN BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMETHING SERIOUS HAPPENS. THANK YOU.

I BACK OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, STOPPED THE TRUCK COMPLETELY, SHIFTED FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE AND AS SOON AS I TOUCHED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL I HERD A LOUD POP AND THEN VIOLENT GRINDING. I SHIFTED MY TRUCK TO 4X4 TO PULL IT OFF THE ROAD WHERE IT IS STILL JUST SETTING WAITING TO BE REPAIRED. *TR

WE TOOK THE TITAN TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR RECALL SERVICE AND GENERAL SERVICE ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR THAT WAS ON RECALL NOTICE IS NOT COVERED ON OUR PARTICULAR VIN. INTERESTING THAT THE $110 DIAGNOSTIC TEST I WAS CHARGED FOR SHOWED THAT SENSOR HAS FAILED, BUT NISSAN REFUSES TO COVER MY VEHICLE UNDER THE RECALL. BY LOOKING AT THE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE, I CAN SEE I AM NOT THE ONLY CONSUMER AFFECTED BY THIS ISSUE. MAKES ME WONDER IF NISSAN IS ACTUALLY HONORING ANY OF THE RECALLS FOR THIS PARTICULAR REPAIR. INTERESTING THAT AFTER MY SERVICE DATE, I WAS CONTACTED BY A SALES REPRESENTATIVE WITH THE SAME DEALERSHIP ASKING IF I WOULD CONSIDER BRINGING IN MY 2005 TITAN FOR A TRADE-IN OPPORTUNITY. I DON'T WANT A NEW CAR, I WANT THIS ONE REPAIRED WITH THE RECALL THAT WAS ISSUED TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. I CONTACTED THE NATIONAL OFFICE AND WAS ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER AND THE INDIVIDUAL HANDLING THE CASE ALSO DECLINED MY REQUEST FOR REPAIR. ON THAT SAME CALL, I WAS ASKED HOW MANY NISSAN VEHICLES I OWN AND IF I WOULD CONSIDER BUYING A NISSAN IN THE FUTURE. BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS RECALL, I WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER NISSAN. NOR WILL I RECOMMEND NISSAN TO ANYONE WHO ASKED WHAT OUR EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THE NISSAN MOTOR CORPORATION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL TANK WAS EMPTY AND NEEDED FUEL IN ORDER TO START THE VEHICLE. ALSO, THE TECHNICIAN NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE READ A QUARTER TANK FULL. AS A RESULT, THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL SENDER UNIT INSIDE THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.

WHEN I PUT VEHICLE IN DRIVE, IT WOULD ONLY GO IN REVERSE. I DISCOVERED THE LINKAGE FROM THE GEARSHIFT LEVER TO THE CABLE HAD SEPARATED. THE PLASTIC RETAINING RING ON THE SHIFT CABLE HAD BROKEN TO PIECES AND LEFT NOTHING TO HOLD THE CABLE TO THE SHIFT LEVER. THIS IS POTENTIALLY EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS A DRIVER COULD MOVE LEVER TO PARK AND THINK HE IS ACTUALLY IN PARK WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS ENGAGED. SOMEONE GETTING OUT OF THE VEHICLE WHILE IT IS STILL RUNNING WILL THEN HAVE A RUNAWAY VEHICLE. LOCAL NISSAN DEALER HAD NO REPLACEMENT PART. I INSTALLED A RETAINING RING AND CLIP. THE FIX COSTS PENNIES AND JUST A FEW MINUTES TIME. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, MY ENGINE STALLED. I LOST ALL ENGINE POWER TO MY TRUCK, WITH NO ERROR CODES, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I HAD TO PLACE MY TRUCK IN NEUTRAL WHILE AT SPEED IN TRAFFIC IN THE LEFT LANE AND COAST TO A SAFE LOCATION ON THE RIGHT SHOULDER. DURING THIS TIME, I HAD NO POWER STEERING OR POWER BRAKES. AFTER I SAFELY STOPPED ON THE SHOULDER, I TRIED TO RESTART MY ENGINE. MY ENGINE WOULD NOT START. APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT, MY TRUCK HAD INTERMITTENTLY STALLED WHILE STOPPED, WITH AN ERROR CODE THAT POINTED TO AN INEFFECTIVE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. I HAD MY MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR REPLACED, MY ECM RELAY REPLACED, AND MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER REPLACED, AT A COST OF ~ $5000 TOTAL. I AM NOW TOLD THE INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE IS LIKELY THE CULPRIT FOR ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS, WHICH WILL COST ME ANOTHER $700 TO REPLACE. IN RESEARCHING PREVIOUS RECALLS, THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL FOR THE ECM RELAY, BUT NOT THE IPDM MODULE. IT APPEARS IN OTHER TITAN FORUMS THAT SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE HAVE SUFFERED FROM THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

AS I WAS REVERSING TO BACK OUT A PARKING SPOT I FELT A HARD THUD LOOKED UNDER AND AROUND TRUCK DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING IT STARTED SNOWING AND I HAD TO USE MY 4WHEEL DRIVE AND IT WOULD NOT ENGAGE THE INDICATOR SAID IT WAS IN 4WHEEL DRIVE BUT THE FRONT WHEELS WOULD NOT TURN TOOK IT A TRANSMISSION SHOP THEY TOLD ME MY LEFT FRONT AXLE POPPED OUT OF THE DIFFERENTIAL WHICH IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE TITAN I FOUND SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND THE SAME WAY MY TRUCK AXLE POPPED OUT AND SAME SIDE CALLED NISSAN AND THEY WONT FIX THIS PROBLEM ITS VERY COSTLY AND DANGEROUS SOME PEOPLE FRONT DIFF BLEW APART I THINK SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE A RECALL OR SOMETHING IT CAN CAUSE A ACCIDENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE TRAVELING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE BRAKES AND STEERING SEIZED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE TIMES IN A FIVE MILE SPAN AND NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE FAILED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE ECM UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V517000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING); HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 124,000.

THIS IS THE SECOND DIFFERENTIAL PUT INTO TRUCK SINCE JULY 2014. THE FIRST ONE WAS WITHIN 30 DAYS OF PURCHASE AT 65,000 AND THE SECOND ONE AT 80,000 COSTING $3800.00. THE TRUCK IS BACK IN FOR REPAIR WITHIN 5 DAYS SINCE AND BACK BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. WAITING TO HEAR FROM MECHANIC. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN WHICH I PURCHASED USED AT 23,000 MILES. TWO YEARS AGO (2013) I HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE U-JOINTS FAILED WHICH COST $1400 DOLLARS. NOW, MARCH 2015, I AGAIN HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL. I FOUND THAT THE RIGHT AXLE HAD POPPED OUT. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL FAILED WHICH COST $2300 DOLLARS. I WAS TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THAT BOTH OF THESE INCIDENTS COULD HAVE CAUSED ME TO CRASH AND THAT I WAS LUCKY. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL OTHER ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE (FUEL PUMP, BRAKES, EXHAUST SYSTEM). I WAS ALSO CONTACTED BY AN ATTORNEY WHO INFORMED ME THAT HE WAS CONDUCTING A LAW SUITE AND WANTED TO KNOW WHAT ISSUES I HAVE HAD. THE ATTORNEY INFORMED ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS DEEMED A "LEMON" BY THE FIRST OWNER. *TR

WHILE PULLING OUR BOAT OUT FROM BOAT RAMP IN 4LO AND A LOUD NOISE CAME FROM DIFF. WHEN I ARRIVE HOME 25MIN LATER IN THE DRIVE WAY I NOTICED GEAR OIL FROM PASSENGER SIDE. UNDER TRUCK I NOTICED WHERE LEAK WAS COMING FROM AND PUSHED THE AXLE BACK AND IT STOPPED LEAKING. I DRAINED AND REMOVED SHAFT ASSEMBLY SIDE DIFF AND REPLACE SEAL AND REFILLED GEAR OIL. ON THE NEXT TRIP WE NOTICED GEAR OIL LEAK CAME HOME DID RESEARCH AND NOTICED THIS IS KNOWN PROBLEM PURCHASED THE CIRCLIP THINKING THAT WAS THE PROBLEM BUT AFTER LAST NIGHT NOTICED THE SHAFT BROKE WHERE THE CIRCLIP WAS SUPPOSE TO BE. LOOKED DOWN THE DIFF HOUSING AND NOTICED THE OTHER PIECE OF THE SHAFT NUB STUCK INSIDE. ESTIMATE $2500 FOR DIFF REPLACEMENT TO 38500-8S112B OR $825 TO REPLACE SHAFT AND GEAR. 3RD TIME I'VE EVER USED 4 WHEEL DRIVE!!!! *TR

2005 NISSAN TITAN. DOOR LATCH FAILURE DURING COLD WEATHER BELOW FREEZING. LIVE IN PA, SO TIME PERIOD OF THIS WEATHER IS DECEMBER - MARCH. 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 . YESTERDAY 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. I MUST DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH A RATCHET STRAP FROM ONE DOOR TO THE OTHER TO KEEP THEM SHUT. THIS IS NOT SAFE BUT THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THE ISSUE AT THIS TIME. 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. FROZEN DOOR LATCH PROBLEM NOT SOLVED...PLEASE ADVISE WINTER PROBLEMS WITH TITAN FROM USA FROZEN DOOR HANDLES FROZEN DOORS WONT CLOSE WHEN COLD!! NISSAN NEW TSB FOR THE FROZEN DOOR HANDLES! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THERE WAS A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL PRESENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEED, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXHIBITING THE SAME FAILURES LISTED IN RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V517000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 137,000.

WHILE TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH ON A US HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIGOROUSLY SHAKE AND A LOUD CLANKING NOISE BEGAN FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. SUDDENLY THERE WAS A LOUD BANGING NOISE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. UPON EXITING THE VEHICLE AS IT CAME TO A STOP, I NOTICED THAT THE REAR DRIVE SHAFT HAD FALLEN OFF. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO LOAD THE VEHICLE ON A WRECKER, THE REAR WHEELS WOULDN'T ROLL. THE ENTIRE REAR DIFFERENTIAL AND AXLE HAD SEIZED. *TR

THE OTHER DAY I WAS SITTING IN TRAFFIC FOR ALMOST 30 MIN STOPPED WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING (LOTS OF CHRISTMAS TRAFFIC ON THE 5 SOUTH FREEWAY), I PUT THE TRUCK IN PARK BECAUSE I NOTICE AN ACCIDENT. I HAD MY WINDOWS UP AND MY CABIN AIR ON. THEN A FEW MIN LATER I STARTED FEELING DIZZY ALMOST FAINTING. THE CAR NEXT TO ME SAW THAT I WAS STRUGGLING, CAME TO MY WINDOW AND ASKED ME IF I WAS OK. I ROLLED DOWN MY WINDOW AND HE NOTICED THE SMELL OF EXHAUST INSIDE MY TRUCK. AFTER MY HEADACHE WENT AWAY. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME BOTH OF MY EXHAUST MANIFOLDS WERE CRACKED AND THAT'S HOW THE EXHAUST WAS ENTERING NEAR THE FRONT CABIN. *TR

REAR SEAL COMPLETELY FAILED WHILE DRIVING CAUSING DIFFERENTIAL OIL TO SATURATE THE REAR BRAKES. *TR

2005 NISSAN TITAN 4X2 SE. VEHICLE CAME WITH 2 MARONI LABELS SAME VIN NUMBER WITH DIFFERENT DEALER ADDRESSES DIFFERENT CODES, AND THE ONE HE PURCHASED DOESN'T MATCH NISSAN RECORDS. *TA

THERE IS A LEAK IN THE MANIFOLD THAT CAUSES EXHAUST TO LEAK INTO THE DRIVERS AREA OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY WHEN INCIDENT HAPPENED AND WAS TOLD THAT NISSAN WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIRS OF THIS LEAK. *TR

FRONT AXLE POPPED OUT, CAUSING FLUIDS TO DRAIN. DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE TRUCK STALLED AND LOST ALL POWER. AFTER GETTING TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY, THE TRUCK STILL HAD BATTERY POWER AND WANTED TO CRANK TO START BUT ACTED LIKE IT WASN'T GETTING GAS. AFTER CALLING AROUND WE DETERMINED THRU A NISSAN SERVICE ADVISOR THAT WE SHOULD TRY FILLING THE TANK WITH GAS, EVEN THOUGH I WAS TELLING HIM IT READ BETWEEN A QUARTER AND HALF A TANK. AFTER PUTTING IN 5 GALLONS AND TURNING THE KEY AND CRANKING IT A FEW SECONDS, IT STARTED RIGHT UP. IT HAS DONE THIS AT VARIOUS TIMES SINCE THIS FIRST OCCURRENCE AND CONTINUES TO VARY. I NOW HAVE TO KEEP NO LESS THAN HALF A TANK OF GAS AT ALL TIMES OR I WILL SUDDENLY LOSE POWER AND HAVE TO PULL OFF. NISSAN HAS A VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN 2005-2009 ARMADA AND TITAN FUEL GAUGE INACCURACY, CAMPAIGN ID#R1010 & NHTSA#10V-074, BUT SAY THAT IT DOES NOT INCLUDE MY VIN. I HAVE TRIED REPEATEDLY TO ASK NISSAN HOW THIS SAFETY CAMPAIGN DOES NOT AFFECT MY VEHICLE IF IT TOO HAS THE SAME PROBLEM, AS I'VE BEEN TOLD ITS THE FUEL SENDING UNIT WHICH IS WHAT THIS RECALL CAMPAIGN COVERS. *TR

THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WHICH IT DOCUMENTED ON MANY ONLINE NISSAN TITAN / ARMADA FORUMS. THE FRONT AXLE HAS SEPARATED FROM THE DIFFERENTIAL HOUSING CAUSING LOSS OF GEAR FLUID AND LACK OF DRIVEABILITY. *TR

FRONT DIFFERENTIAL HAS FAILED, SEVER CRACKING IN THE HOUSING. LOUD WHINE/GRUMBLE IS HEARD WHEN IN BOTH TWO WHEEL DRIVE AND FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. ALL LUBRICANTS HAVE BEEN SERVICED UNDER MANUFACTURE RECOMMENDATIONS. AFTER REVIEWING ONLINE, I SEE THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM FOR NISSAN TITANS. *TR

MY TRUCK STOPPED ONE SUNDAY I WAS SITTING AT THE RED LIGHT. I TRIED TO START IT BUT IT WOULDN'T START SO I CALLED A TOW TRUCK AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. ON MONDAY MORNING I GET A CALL FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY TOLD ME MY TRUCK WAS OUT OF GAS. I TOLD THEM THAT I HAD A LITTLE BIT OVER A QUARTER TANK OF GAS IN IT. HE TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK AFTER A COMPLETE CHECK. THEY CALLED BACK AND TOLD ME THAT MY TRUCK NEEDED A FUEL SENDER UNIT AND A FUEL RING, I TOLD THEM TO GO AHEAD AND REPAIR IT. ON TUESDAY I WENT AND PICKED UP MY TRUCK AND THEY EXPLAINED TO ME THAT MY FUEL LEVELING SENSOR SHORTED OUT. I PAID A TOTAL OF 515.88 PLUS 65.00 FOR TOWING ON SOMETHING THAT HAD A RECALL ON IT. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY KNEW IT WAS UNDER RECALL OR NOT BUT I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT IF I PAID FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. I HAVE MY RECEIPTS AND IT SHOWS THE DATES OF THE INCIDENT CAME AFTER THE RECALL DATES. *TR

I NOTICED THAT THE TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER HOSES WERE LEAKING OIL ONTO THE GROUND. IF HOSE WERE TO BURST, THIS WOULD CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE OR ACCIDENT. NISSAN HAS A SEALED TRANSMISSION THAT DOES NOT ALLOW YOU TO CHECK TRANSMISSION OIL LEVEL. MUST BE TAKEN TO DEALER TO CHECK LEVEL. *TR

DEFECTIVE REAR AXLE/DIFFERENTIAL. I NOTICED THAT OIL WAS LEAKING AT BOTH HUBS OF THE REAR AXLE. DEALER SAID THAT ENTIRE REAR AXLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE DIFFERENTIAL HAS BEEN MAINTAINED ACCORDING TO MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDATIONS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AS THE AXLE COULD LOCK UP WHILE DRIVING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER INSPECTING THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE, AXLE FLUID WAS DISCOVERED LEAKING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR DRIVER SIDE AXLE SEAL HAD RUPTURED CAUSING THE FLUID TO LEAK OUT. THE AXLE WAS REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP LIGHT AND ACCELERATING FROM 0-30MPH MY REAR END MADE A TERRIBLE BANGING NOISE AND I LOST POWER TO THE DRIVETRAIN. I SPENT $4500 TO REPLACE THE REAR END. THE ENTIRE REAR DIFFERENTIAL EXPLODED. I HAVE NEVER MISUSED THIS TRUCK AND ONLY TOW MY BOAT ABOUT 30 MILES 5-6 TIMES A YEAR. ALL FLUIDS ARE PROPERLY MAINTAINED AND WERE AT APPROPRIATE LEVELS WHEN THE SHOP REPAIRED. IN RESEARCHING ONLINE IT APPEARS THAT THE NISSAN TITAN HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL IN A 2005 HAVING HIGH FAILURE RATES. *TR

REAR END GAVE OUT AT 5 MPH. *TR

MY VEHICLE HAS PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AND THEN MY 3.6 FINAL DRIVELINE REAR END GAVE ME PROBLEMS SO FAR I HAVE SPENT OVER 4500.00 TO REPAIR TRANSMISSION AND SOLVE LEAKS TO MY VEHICLE NOW DEALER TELLS ME I NEED TO SPEND 3000.00 TO FIX THEIR DEFECT. *TR

DRIVER SIDE AXLE SHAFT POP OUT OF FRONT DIFFERENTIAL AND THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL NO LONGER WORKS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS MERGED TO SIDE OF THE ROAD AND THE CONTACT HEARD THE SOUND COMING FROM THE EXHAUST. THE DEALER STATED THAT TWO MANIFOLDS WERE CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 177,100.

I WAS RIDING DOWN I25 WHEN MY TRUCK ENGINE UNEXPECTEDLY QUIT. AT 75 MPH IT WAS ALL I COULD DO TO CHANGE LANES AND PULL OVER TO THE MEDIAN WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWED THAT I STILL HAD 1/4 TANK OF GAS. I TRIED REPEATEDLY TO START THE TRUCK WITHOUT SUCCESS. AFTER SCRATCHING MY HEAD FOR A WHILE I CALLED MY SON TO BRING ME SOME GAS. AFTER ADDING GAS THE TRUCK STARTED UP AFTER A FEW TURNS OF THE IGNITION. NOT KNOWING WHAT THE HECK HAD HAPPENED I CONTINUED DRIVING THE TRUCK. UNFORTUNATELY I RAN OUT OF GAS AGAIN SOME WEEK LATER, THIS TIME IN A NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE THE SPEED ISSUE WAS NOT QUITE AS SEVERE. SINCE THAT TIME I'VE IGNORED MY FUEL GAUGE AND DETERMINED WHEN TO REFUEL BY MILEAGE. THIS IS REALLY AGGRAVATING BECAUSE THERE IS A RECALL ON TITAN FUEL SENDERS FOR MODEL YEAR 2005. HOWEVER NISSAN IS TELLING ME THAT MY VIN IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 1 MPH, THE CONTACT SMELLED FUMES FROM THE EXHAUST IN THE VEHICLE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON TWO OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE WAS 98,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

BACK IN MAY OF 2011 I WAS DRIVING MY NISSAN TITAN TRUCK DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH MY TWO GIRLS 6 & 7 YEAR OLD WHEN I HEARD THE TRUCK MAKING A NOISE OUT OF THE REAR .I SLOW DOWN AND IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF ROAD NOT KNOWING WHAT HAD HAPPENED. I DROVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO MY HOME AND CALLED THE DEALERSHIP. WHEN I TOOK MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN TO THE DEALERSHIP IN VINELAND NEW JERSEY THEY STATED THAT THE PROBLEM WITH MY TRUCK WAS THE REAR AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THEY STATED THAT THE REPAIR COST FOR THE WHOLE REAR WAS $3,800 IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE REPAIRED. THEY STATED THAT MY TRUCK WAS OUT OF WARRANTY BY 2 MONTHS EVEN THOUGH I ONLY HAD 38,836 MILES ON IT. I ASKED WHY COULDN'T THE PUMPKIN IN THE REAR BE FIXED AND NISSAN STATED THEY DO NOT JUST FIX THE PUMPKIN. THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE REAR IN THE TRUCK COSTING ME $3,800.00. I CALLED [XXX] AND SPOKE TO [XXX]. [XXX] REP STATED THAT HE HAS NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM, PART (TT913A582) [XXX] POSI. [XXX] STATED TO ME THAT THEY MAKE THIS REAR FOR NISSAN. [XXX] STATED THAT NISSAN ENGINEERS, ENGINEER PART AND THEY ONLY MAKE IT FOR THEM. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL SHOP TO BE REPAIRED WHICH STATED THAT THE REPAIRS WOULD COST ME $1,358.90. THE AUTO REPAIR CENTER THAT I TOOK MY NISSAN TITIAN TO, STATED THAT THERE WAS MANY MANY MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE REARS IN THE NISSAN TITANS STARTING FROM 2005 TO 2010. IT WAS ACTUALLY BEING REPORTED ONLINE SEARCH. AS I LOOKED ONLINE I COULD SEE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE NISSAN TITAN REARS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. SO MY QUESTION TO THE GOVERNMENT SUPERVISOR PAID BY TAXPAYERS, DOES IT TAKE 30 PEOPLE TO DIE IN ORDER TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND BLAME IT ON NISSAN JUST LIKE YOU DID TO GM. FIX THE PROBLEM. SO GO ONLINE AND READ. TAKE MATTERS SERIOUSLY!! I EXTRICATE PEOPLE OUT OF VEHICLES FOR A LIVING WHEN THEY ARE IN CAR ACCIDENTS DEAD OR ALIVE.

NISSAN REPLACED THE ECU RELAY AND FRONT FAN THEY INSTALLED A JUMPER FUSE INTO THE IPDM AND NOW VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING NOW THE VEHICLE WONT EVEN TURN OVER. THE BATTERY WAS DRAINED NOW CHARGED WHEN I TURN THE IGNITION I GET ZERO RESPONSE FROM THE STARTER AS IF THE IPDM WAS BLOWN. THE TRUCK SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING LIKE 10 - 20 WITHIN A 5 MI TRIP TO GET BACK HOME. *TR

EXHAUST FUMES IN CABIN DUE TO CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLDS. I ONLY USE THE TRUCK FOR FAMILY TRIPS, AND ON THE LAST TRIP I NOTICES A TICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE, ESPECIALLY WHEN COLD, I ALSO NOTICED EXHAUST FUMES IN THE CABIN WHEN THE TRUCK WAS AT A LIGHT OR A LONG STOP SIGN. I AM THE FIRST OWNER OF THIS TRUCK AND AFTER SOME RESEARCH IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH NISSAN TITANS BUT THE WORST PART IS THAT THE REPLACEMENTS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, SO NOW I CAN NOT USE THIS VEHICLE. LOOKING TO SEE WHAT IS THE BEST PERMANENT SOLUTION. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR LEAF SPRING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE TO THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 28,000.

I FIRST FELT AND HEARD A LOUD CLANKING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR END WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP LIGHT. APPROXIMATELY 30 SECONDS LATER I FELT IT AGAIN WHILE ENTERING THE ON RAMP TO A FREEWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. I PULLED OVER AND INSPECTED THE REAR END OF MY TRUCK AND FOUND NO VISIBLE DAMAGE OR LEAKING OF FLUIDS. I GOT BACK IN MY TRUCK AND STARTED TO ACCELERATE AND IMMEDIATELY FELT AND HEARD THE CLANKING NOISE AGAIN. I THEN DROVE STRAIGHT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHICH FORTUNATELY WAS ONLY TWO MILES AWAY. THE NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID AN INSPECTION AND DETERMINE THE GEARS IN DIFFERENTIAL WERE BINDING. THE NISSAN TECHNICIANS WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHY A DIFFERENTIAL WITH ONLY 53,000 MILES THAT WAS MAINTAINED AS WELL AS MINE WAS WOULD FAIL. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP HAS PERFORMED ALL THE MAINTENANCE ON MY TRUCK AND ARE WELL AWARE OF HOW WELL ITS MAINTAINED. THEY SUGGESTED ITS A DEFECT AND RECOMMENDED I SPEAK WITH NISSAN USA DIRECTLY IN HOPES OF THEM COVERING THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DEFECTIVE DIFFERENTIAL ON MY TRUCK. I SPOKE WITH A REPRESENTATIVE FROM NISSAN USA AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT BECAUSE MY TRUCK IS OUT OF WARRANTY, THE DEFECTIVE DIFFERENTIAL ITS NOT GOING TO BE COVERED. THE WORST PART IS THAT THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THE DIFFERENTIAL. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE REAR AXLE. THIS IS A COST OF (AXLE) $3500.00 +( LABOR) $1000.00. LETS NOT FORGET TAXES ALSO. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE DEFECTIVE DIFFERENTIALS AND IS COUNTING ON PEOPLE TO NOT MAKE THE EFFORT TO BRING THIS ISSUE TO LIGHT. PLEASE HELP MAKE A CHANGE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT BY THIS DEFECT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THERE WAS A CONSISTENT TICKING NOISE FROM DRIVE SHAFT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN FOR INSPECTION OR DIAGNOSIS. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 122,000.

I STARTED TO FEEL A THUD IN THE REAR AXLE AS I TURNED THE VEHICLE. IF FELT LIKE THE AXLE WAS BINDING UP. ULTIMATELY, I TOOK IT TO NISSAN WHO SAID THEY COULD REPLACE THE AXLE FOR $3000. SINCE THIS WAS WAY TO EXPENSIVE FOR A KNOW DEFECT, I HAD THE LOCKER REPLACED AT FOUR WHEEL PARTS. IT COST NEARLY $2500 WHEN ALL SAID AND DONE. *TR

STARTED HAVING OVER HEATING ISSUES IN 8/2012. EVENTUALLY HAD RADIATOR COMPLETELY REPLACED IN 2/14. HAD TRANSMISSION FLUSHED AROUND SAME TIME. ON 3/26/14, I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE GOING 65MPH WHEN I LOST USE OF THE TRANSMISSION, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL, BARELY AVOIDING A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. TODAY FOUND OUT THERE IS A DEFECT WITH NISSAN RADIATORS OVER HEATING AND CAUSING COOLANT TO LEAK INTO THE TRANSMISSION, DETERIORATING THE GEARS OVER TIME. SPENT AROUND $1,000.00 GETTING THE RADIATOR REPLACED UNAWARE OF THIS FACTORY DEFECT. NOW I AM WITHOUT A FUNCTIONING VEHICLE AND I THINK LUCKY TO BE ALIVE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY, MY TITAN RAN OUT OF GAS WHILE THE GAUGE SHOWED 1/4 TANK, STRANDING MYSELF, MY PREGNANT WIFE AND 2YR OLD DAUGHTER IN A DANGEROUS AREA, AND IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY STREET. I HAD TO GET OUT AND PUSH THE TRUCK TO A PARKING LOT. I THEN WALKED TWO MILES TO GET 2 GALLONS OF GAS, FORCED TO LEAVE MY FAMILY WITH THE STRANDED TRUCK(MY WIFE CAN'T WALK THAT FAR RIGHT NOW). I RETURNED, PUT THE 2 GALLONS IN THE TANK AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. I CALLED THE DEALER, WHICH GAVE ME A LOUSY EXCUSE AS TO WHY THOUSANDS OF THESE TRUCKS WERE RECALLED BECAUSE OF THIS SAME ISSUE, EXCEPT MINE. THEY OFFERED TO GIVE ME A GREAT DEAL. 600 DOLLARS FOR THE REPAIR WHEN THE PART COSTS $77. THEN JUST LAST WEEK THE TRUCK RAN OUT OF GAS, THIS TIME ON THE FREEWAY, NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT WITH A SEMI TRUCK, WHILE SHOWING ALMOST 1/2 TANK. UPON RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE, I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THOUSANDS OF TITAN OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND NOT BEING COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. I CONTACTED THE BAR AND AFTER THEIR INVESTIGATION, THE DEALER DISCLOSED THAT ALL TITANS WERE MADE WITH THE DEFECTIVE FUEL LEVEL SENSOR, AND THAT THE DEALER WAS REPLACING THESE PARTS EVERY DAY, NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL. TO SUM IT UP, I SPENT GOOD MONEY FOR A TRUCK THAT I THOUGHT WOULD BE A SAFE VEHICLE FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY, WHICH IT IS NOT. I'M VERY SERIOUS I WAS ALMOST KILLED WHEN IT HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY. I HAVE OWNED A LOT OF VEHICLES, AND HAVE NEVER EVER HEARD OF SUCH A SAFETY ISSUE THAT ISN'T ADDRESSED BY RECALLS. BASICALLY THIS TRUCK IS A DEATH TRAP, IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL SOMETHING TRAGIC HAPPENS, ALL BECAUSE NISSAN WILL NOT OWN UP TO THEIR FAULTY PARTS. IN FACT THEY ARE VERY DISRESPECTFUL, AND UNPROFESSIONAL WHEN TALKING TO THEM ABOUT IT. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER NISSAN AGAIN, KNOWING HOW UNSAFE THEY ARE AND THE WAY THEY TREAT THEIR LOYAL CUSTOMERS AFTER A PURCHASE. .... UPDATED 08/05/14 *BF *TR UPDATED 08/18/2014 *JS

OIL LEAKING ON LEFT REAR WHEEL CAUSE BY A BAD SEAL. TRUCK HAVE BEEN REPAIRED TWICE BY A LOCAL LICENSED SHOP, . THE PROBLEM PERSIST. IT MAY BE CAUSE BY A BAD DIFFERENTIAL. LET ME KNOW IF IS ANY RECALLS FROM FACTORY. OR ANY ON GOING INVESTIGATION. *TR

WHILE DOING A LIQUIDS CHECK I NOTICED THE COOLANT RESERVOIR WAS LOW. I ADDED DISTILLED WATER TO THE RADIATOR AND LOOKED UNDERNEATH TO LOOK FOR A LEAK. I FOUND COOLANT LEAKING FROM THE TRANSMISSION LINE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE RADIATOR. AS I BACKED INTO MY GARAGE, I HEARD THE COOLANT RESERVOIR PRESSURIZE AND START TO OVERFLOW. THE RESERVOIR WAS FILLED WITH TRANNY FLUID. I DRAINED THE TRANSMISSION AND FOUND COOLANT IN THE TRANSMISSION. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY MILES I DROVE THE VEHICLE IN THIS CONDITION BUT I'M AFRAID THE TRANSMISSION IS DAMAGED AND I CAN'T GET THE COOLANT COMPLETELY OUT OF THE TRANSMISSION. I'VE DRAINED AND FILLED IT TWICE SO FAR AND STILL HAVE SIGNS OF COOLANT. I TALKED TO A LOCAL DEALER AND THEY RECOMMENDED THAT I KEEP DRAINING AND FLUSHING UNTIL THE TRANNY FLUID COMES OUT THE SAME COLOR AS IT WENT IN. *TR

THE DOOR HANDLES AND LOCKS BOTH FAIL TO WORK WHEN TEMPERATURES DROP BELOW AROUND 20 DEGREES. SOMETIMES THEY SIMPLY WONT OPEN, AND OTHER TIMES THEY WILL OPEN BUT WON'T LATCH WHEN THE DOOR SHUTS. THE DILEMMA IS USUALLY SIMPLY FRUSTRATING, HOWEVER SOMETIMES THEY SLIGHTLY LATCH AND APPEAR TO BE SHUT AND FULLY LATCHED, BUT THEN WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION THE DOOR WILL FLING OPEN ON A TURN. *TR

I RAN OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGH THE FUEL GAUGE STATED I HAD MORE THAN A 1/4 OF A TANK OF FUEL LEFT. AFTER RESEARCHING AND DISCOVERING NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID # 10V074000 MANY 2005 NISSAN TITANS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AS I ENCOUNTERED. I CONTACTED A LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND DISCUSSED THIS WITH THEM. AFTER GIVING THEM MY VIN, THEY STATED THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN FOR FALSE FUEL GAUGE READINGS OR OTHER ISSUES REGARDING THE FUEL SYSTEM IN MY VEHICLE. "RECALLS ARE VIN SPECIFIC AND YOURS IS NOT LISTED." WELL, THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE'S FUEL GAUGE AS WELL. I WOULD LIKE INFORMATION HOW TO GET MY VEHICLE'S VIN ADDED TO THE LIST OF MALFUNCTIONING FUEL GAUGE ISSUES AND HAVE IT REPLACED BY THE DEALER AS A WARRANTY ITEM, AS OTHERS HAVE DONE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AS I WAS TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 75 MPH WHEN WITHOUT NOTICE, I RAN OUT OF GAS. WHEN MY VEHICLE RAN OUT OF GAS I WAS UNABLE TO USE MY BRAKES, STEERING WAS DIFFICULT AND IF THERE WAS TRAFFIC AHEAD I WOULD OF SURLY CRASHED. THANK YOU *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THE FUEL GAUGE FAILED AND DISPLAYED A QUARTER TANK WHEN THE FUEL TANK WAS EMPTY. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 105,320.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH, THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED A LOUD POP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

MY EXHAUST MANIFOLD IS LEAKING JUST AS MANY OTHER TITAN OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED. I DID NOT NOTICE A NOISE ON MINE UNTIL I WENT IN TO A MUFFLER SHOP TO GET A PRICE ON GETTING A DUAL EXHAUST INSTALLED AND THEY SHOWED ME THAT IT WAS CRACKED. AS A RESULT, I DO NOT KNOW WHEN THE PROBLEM BEGAN, BUT I CAN HEAR IT CONSTANTLY NOW. I HAVE SINCE, DONE EXTENSIVE RESEARCH OVER THE INTERNET AND HAVE FOUND THAT HUNDREDS OF TITAN OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER HOW OLD OR NEW THE TITAN IS, OWNERS ARE REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE OVER AND OVER AGAIN. SOME ARE STILL UNDER WARRANTY, SO THEY ARE GETTING A FREE REPAIR, BUT IF IT IS AN ONGOING ISSUE, WHY HASN'T A RECALL ALREADY BEEN ISSUED? I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MANY MUFFLER SHOP TECH'S THAT THE "CAST" THAT NISSAN USED WAS A BAD "CAST" AND THEY HAVE SINCE FIXED IT. IF THE AFTERMARKET MUFFLER TECH KNOWS, THAN NISSAN CERTAINLY SHOULD...OR ELSE THEY SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF IT BY A RECALL BEING ISSUED. THANK YOU. *TR

RIGHT EXHAUST MANIFOLD CRACK. EVERY FORUM ON TITAN'S COMPLAIN HOW THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS CRACK AND LEAK WELL BEFORE THEIR TIME AND ALL BEEN UNDER 100K. IT TELLS ME NISSAN DOES A POOR JOB MAKING THAT PART AND IT'S A COSTLY JOB FOR CUSTOMERS TO REPAIR. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM. *TR

WHEN I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES TO START STOPPING, IT DIDN'T FEEL LIKE IT WAS GRABBING AND I REALLY HAD TO STAND ON THE PEDAL TO STOP BEFORE I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. WHEN I GOT HOME, I LOOKED AT ALL MY BRAKES AND FOUND THAT THE REAR AXLE SEAL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS LEAKING. GREASE/OIL WAS ALL OVER THE REAR BRAKES. I HAVE HAD THE SEAL REPLACED 3 TIMES NOW. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE DEALER WANTS $1800 TO DO IT AGAIN!! WE NEED A RECALL. *TR

I'D LIKE TO KNOW IF SOME SORT OF RECALL ON THE NISSAN TITAN PICK UP CAN BE LOOKED INTO REGARDING A REAR AXLE SEAL LEAK. IT APPEARS THAT MANY OF THE VEHICLE OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING A SIMILAR PROBLEM COSTING CONSUMERS NEARLY $300-$500 IN REAR/REPLACEMENT OF A $15 SEAL. DUE TO THE INTRICATE REPAIR, MANY DO IT YOURSELFERS ARE UNABLE TO PERFORM THIS REPAIR. PLEASE ADVISE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH. HAD TO HAVE COMPLETE REPLACEMENT OF REAR END AT COST OF $3000. I HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF SAME ISSUE. APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURE DEFECT. NISSAN DOES NOT ALLOW REPLACEMENT OF PARTS ONLY REPLACEMENT OF WHOLE REAR END UNIT. *TR

THE TRANSMISSION WON'T GO INTO THE LOWER GEARS AND IT REVS AT A HIGH RPM AND WON'T SHIFT. I HAVE SEEN WHERE THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF TROUBLE WITH THIS TRANSMISSION DUE TO A COOLANT THAT LEAKS INTO THE TRANSMISSION. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND HE SAYS THERE IS HELP OUT THERE FOR FRONTIER AND SOME OTHERS BUT THE TITAN ISN'T PROTECTED. AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET, THERE ARE A LOT OF TITAN OWNERS THAT ARE HAVING/HAD THIS TROUBLE THAT HAVE THE SAME MODEL AS MYSELF. *TR

FRONT DIFFERENTIAL STARTED MAKING NOISE, WHEN MECHANICS OPENED IT, THEY SAID IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO REBUILD AND I NEED A BRAND NEW ASSEMBLY. (TOO MUCH INTERNAL DAMAGE.) FOR THE MILEAGE THIS TRUCK HAS, THIS PART FAILED WAY TO EARLY. MECHANIC SAID IT HAPPENED BECAUSE OF ITS POOR DESIGN. NOW TRUCK HAS 60,000 MILES AND REAR DIFFERENTIAL STARTED TO LEAK. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD FAILED. THE CONTACT INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND FOUND THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD TAIL PIPE WAS FRACTURED DUE TO DEFECTIVE WELDING AND CAUSED THE TAIL PIPE TO MELT THE REAR BRAKE WIRES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 88,000.

WHILE MOVING FORWARD FROM PARK, THE REAR TIRES LOCKED UP. I REVERSED AND THEN MOVED FORWARD TO TRY TO FREE THE TIRES. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS OFF. IT TOOK SEVERAL TIMES OF SHIFTING GEARS BEFORE THE VEHICLE WOULD MOVE FREELY. I RESEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND SEVERAL OTHER TITAN OWNERS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY TRACED THE CAUSE TO THE REAR EMERGENCY BRAKE PADS DISLODGING FROM THE HUB AND BECOMING LODGED IN THE REAR ROTOR. MY MECHANIC REMOVED THE REAR ROTOR ON THE RIGHT SIDE AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE PADS FELL OUT. THE LEFT SIDE PADS WERE STILL MOUNTED BUT WITH ONE POKE WITH A SCREWDRIVER, THE PADS FELL OUT. ONE YOUTUBE VIDEO SHOWS A TITAN WITH THIS PROBLEM BUT ADDITIONALLY THE BRAKE PAD BROKE THE REAR CALIPER BRACKET. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR AXLE LEAKED ONTO THE BRAKES AND THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WAS FRACTURED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN, BUT THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 160,000.

THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR ACTUATOR FREEZES AND WILL EITHER NOT UNLOCK AND ALLOW YOU TO OPEN THE DOOR AT ALL OR MORE OFTEN, WILL FREEZE IN THE OPEN POSITION WHICH PREVENTS THE DOOR FROM LATCHING SHUT. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WHICH NISSAN'S MODEL ENGINEER IS AWARE OF AND THEY HAVE ISSUED SERVICE BULLETIN NTB05-118A FOR. *TR

FOR THE LAST YEAR I HAD HEARD A NOISE THAT SOUNDED LIKE AN EXHAUST LEAK. SMELLED FUMES INSIDE THE CAR. DEALER CONFIRMED MANIFOLD WAS CRACKED, BUT SINCE THE CAR HAD 82000 MILES ON IT, THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT. *TR

1ST INCIDENT OCCURRED DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. I WAS DRIVING AROUND 25MPH WHEN MY TITAN STARTED TO STALL AND THEN CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, WAS JUST ABOUT REAR-END BY DELIVERY TRUCK. I WAS STUCK ON THE STREET IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC FOR 2 HOURS BEFORE A TOW TRUCK WAS ABLE TO COME TOW TRUCK. I HAD MECHANIC LOOK IT OVER AND IT CAME OUT THAT I HAD RUN OUT OF GAS, MECHANIC LOOKED AT FUEL GAUGE AND IT WAS READING OF TANK BUT WOULD NOT START. ONCE COUPLE GALLONS WERE ADDED TRUCK STARTED RIGHT UP. MECHANIC STATED THAT FUEL GAUGE IS READING WRONG, MECHANIC LOOKED UP TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY RECALLS. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE 2005 NISSAN TITAN FOR THE FUEL SYSTEM NOT READING CORRECTLY. BUT DEALER STATED THAT MY VIN NUMBER DIDN'T FALL INTO THAT RECALL. MECHANIC STATED IT WOULD BE OVER $900 TO FIX. SO I HAD TO TELL THE MECHANIC NOT TO FIX IT. OVER THE YEARS, I HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS ABOUT 3 MORE TIMES DUE TO THE FUEL GAUGE NOT READING CORRECTLY. LAST TIME I RAN OUT OF GAS MY INFANT SON WAS IN TRUCK AND WAS JUST ABOUT SIDE SWIPED FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE AT AN INTERSECTION. I NEED TO DO WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO GET MY NISSAN TITAN ADDED TO THIS RECALL, I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY THIS TO BE FIXED. RECALL ID #68299 ? FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER: STORAGE:FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM. *TR

I TOOK MY TRUCK TO AN OIL CHANGE AND THEY NOTICE THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WAS LEAKING OIL ON THE RIGHT SIDE THEY TOLD ME THAT THE SEALS ARE BROKEN SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO BE FIXED. WHEN I GOT HOME LOOK IT UP IN THE INTERNET AND IT I FIND OUT THAT THIS HAPPENS QUITE OFTEN AND I THINK THAT NISSAN SHOULD DO SOMETHING TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE DIFFERENTIAL FLUID CAN GET INTO THE BRAKES AND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE (RECALL 06V-459) FROM NISSAN APPROXIMATELY 4 YEARS AGO REGARDING THE WIRING HARNESS BEING DEFECTIVE. THE ORIGINAL NOTICE DID NOT MENTION THAT IT WOULD REQUIRE SERVICE ONLY IF THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON OR FLASHING (WHICH IT WAS NOT). I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN FOR THE RECALL (AT KELLY NISSAN OF LYNNFIELD MA), NOT KNOWING THIS AND THEY SIMPLY TAPED THE WIRING HARNESSES AFTER INSPECTION AND RECORDED THE RECALL SERVICED ON THE NISSAN TITAN AND MOST LIKELY CHARGED NISSAN OF NORTH AMERICA FOR PARTS AND LABOR FOR A HARNESS REPLACEMENT. AT 65,000 MILES I STARTED TO GET THE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT ON MY DASHBOARD FLASHING CONSTANTLY. I RESEARCHED THE FLASHING CODE FROM THE SENSOR AND IT TURNS OUT TO BE RELATED TO THE PASSENGER SIDE WIRING HARNESS. AS RECENTLY AS 2 WEEKS AGO I RECEIVED WHAT I THOUGHT WAS ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE FROM NISSAN OF NORTH AMERICA WHICH CLEARLY STATED THIS TIME " IF THE RED AIRBAG WARNING LAMP IS ILLUMINATED - PLEASE CONTACT YOUR DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY FOR REPAIRS" , AFTER SCHEDULING ANOTHER APPOINTMENT WITH THE SAME DEALERSHIP THAT DID THE ORIGINAL RECALL AND BRINGING THE VEHICLE IN THEY TOLD ME THAT THE RECALL HAD ALREADY BEEN DONE AND THE WAS NO OTHER ACTION THAT COULD BE PERFORMED WITHOUT A CHARGE TO ME. THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AS I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. I FIND IT DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE THAT IF A VEHICLE HAS A RECALL AND PARTS ARE REPLACED THAT THE SAME FAILURE WILL OCCUR WITH THE REPLACED PARTS, HENCE MY CONCLUSION THAT THE ACTUAL WORK WAS NEVER PERFORMED ONLY RECORDED AS SUCH AGAINST THE VEHICLES (VIN). ANY HELP YOU COULD PROVIDE WOULD BE APPRECIATED. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

FRONT DRIVE AXEL CAME OUT OF DIFFERENTIAL WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY SPEED ON SLICK ROAD CAUSING SUDDEN LOSS OF FOUR WHEEL DRIVE AND LOSS OF TRACTION. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, ONCE IN 2008 AND AGAIN IN 2013. *TR

VEHICLE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ON BOTH SIDES CRACKED. *TR

EXHAUST MANIFOLD CRACKS. THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ON NISSAN TITANS ARE DEFECTIVE. IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED THAT THE MAJORITY OF OWNERS OF TITANS HAVE, HAD OR WILL HAVE THE ISSUE OF A CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION, AS AN EXHAUST LEAK COULD INTRODUCE CARBON MONOXIDE INTO THE CABIN AREA WITH IS LETHAL. THERE ARE FORUMS THAT THIS ISSUE IS DISCUSSED WELL IN DETAIL REQUIRING THE OWNER TO FOOT THE BILL FOR REPLACEMENT AT A PRICE AROUND $2500.00. IF YOU CONTACT NISSAN, THEY WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT IS A DEFECT, EXCEPT IN REALITY THEY KNOW BECAUSE THEY HAVE MADE SUBSEQUENT CHANGES ON NEWER MODELS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THEY DON'T WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR EARLIER MODELS. YOU WILL NOT KNOW IF CARBON MONOXIDE HAS ENTERED THE CABIN AND COULD KILL YOU IN MINUTES. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED IN ORDER TO SAVE LIVES AND MAKE NISSAN RESPONSIBLE FOR DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS. THIS APPLIES NOT ONLY TO TITANS, BUT ARMADAS AS WELL. *TR

THE PASSENGER SIDE EXHAUST MANIFOLD DEVELOPED A CRACK AND LEAKS EXHAUST FUMES. WE HAD THE TRUCK INTO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES COMPLAINING OF AN EXHAUST LEAK; HOWEVER, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT ADVISED THEY COULD NOT LOCATE ANY LEAKS. WE HAD A FAMILY MEMBER, WHO IS A MECHANIC, LOOK AT THE TRUCK RECENTLY AND HE LOCATED THE CRACK IN THE UNDERSIDE OF THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THIS CONDITION COULD LEAK EXHAUST FUMES INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OF THE VEHICLE CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION. *TR

A-ARM BROKE TIRE RIPPED IN TO SIDE OF TRUCK

CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLDS BOTH SIDES. NOTICED IT AROUND 60000 MILES. VEHICLE PURCHASED FROM DENNIS DILLON NISSAN BOISE IDAHO. DEALER HAS BEEN NO HELP AS OF YET EVEN THOUGH THE CATALYTIC SYSTEM HAS A 8/80 WARRANTY . *TR

NISSAN TITAN LE 2005 4X4. THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED. THE REAR SEAL FAILED AND CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE RING & PINION GEARS. THE REAR END SMELLS BURNED AND LEAKED FLUID ALL OVER THE UNDERCARRIAGE. UPON DOING RESEARCH OF THE NISSAN TITAN TRUCK, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM OF THE REAR ENDS FAILING. IT IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THEY HAVE BEEN SELECTIVE REGARDING REPAIRS. THEY SOMETIMES FIX OUT OF WARRANTY FAILURES THOUGH THERE ARE MANY TRUCKS BOTH UNDER WARRANTY AND OUT OF WARRANTY WITH FAILING REAR ENDS. *TR

PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL FOR THE DEFECTIVE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS FOR THE NISSAN TITANS. I KNOW THAT THERE IS A WARRANTY UP TO 80000 MILES BUT MY TRUCK IS OVER THAT MILEAGE. THIS IS A KNOWN FACTORY DEFECT THAT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO EXHAUST LEAKAGE. *TR

AFTER HAVING IPDM MODULE REPLACED (CAMPAIGN NUMBER 10V517000), THE SES LIGHT SHOWED BAD CATALYTIC CONVERTERS WITHIN A FEW THOUSAND MILES. THE IPDM MODULE FAILED BEFORE BEING REPLACED AND IT CAUSED RAW FUEL TO BE DUMPED ON THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS WHICH CAUSED THEM TO FAIL. I THINK NISSAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF FAILED CATALYTIC CONVERTERS WHEN THEIR FAULTY PART CAUSED THE DAMAGE. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR ($2,800). AFTER LOOKING AT FORUMS ON THE INTERNET, I SEE MANY PEOPLE HAVING ISSUES WITH THE TITAN CATALYTIC CONVERTERS AND HAVING THEM FAIL BEFORE THE VEHICLE REACHES 100K MILES. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN AND THEY WOULD NOT HELP WITH THE REPAIR. THEY SAID THE FAULTY IPDM WOULD NOT CAUSE CATS TO FAIL. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. ON THANKSGIVING EVENING MY FAMILY AND I WERE DRIVING HOME ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEARD A CLUNK AND LOST ACCELERATION. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY AND HAD TO CROSS 3 LANES TO TRY AND GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER. WE NEARLY GOT HIT BY MANY PASSING CARS DUE TO THE IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER AND SLOWING OF MY TRUCK. AFTER FINALLY TOWING THE TRUCK TO THE SHOP I FOUND OUT THAT, FOR THE SECOND TIME, THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WENT OUT. THE FIRST TIME WAS AT 75000 MILES AND THE SECOND AT 125000 MILES. BOTH TIMES I AM STUCK FOOTING THE BILL. NEEDLESS TO SAY MY ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION IS STILL SITTING BROKEN UNTIL I AM ABLE TO PAY THE 3500 DOLLARS TO GET IT FIXED. *TR

(1ST)THE DRIVER DOOR HANDLE FROZE AND I WAS UNABLE TO UNLOCK DOOR TO GET OUT. (2ND) WHILE DAUGHTER WAS IN THE BACKSEAT OF TRUCK DOOR DIDN'T LATCH AND FLEW OPEN IN ROUTE TO SCHOOL (3RD)DRIVERS DOOR AGAIN OPENED THEN WOULD NOT LATCH HAD TO WAIT TILL IT THAWED OUT. *TR

TOOK MY TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES AND TOLD THEM THAT MY MANUAL SHIFTER WAS INTERMITTENT. THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. BUT WHEN I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS NOT WORKING. IT FINALLY STOP WORKING AT ALL. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY FOUND A BROKEN GROUND WIRE. THE COST OF THE PART 413.00 LABOR 375.00. I DID NOT GET IT REPAIRED BECAUSE OF THE COST. I WENT ONLINE AND RESEARCHED IT AND FOUND IT FOR 253.00 AND PUTTING IT IN WOULD BE EASY FOR MYSELF. AFTER A COUPLE OF HOURS ON RESEARCH ON HOW TO INSTALL THIS, I CAME ACROSS SEVERAL SECTIONS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. COME TO FIND OUT NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. BEING THAT OVER TIME SHIFTING GEARS MADE THE WIRES BREAK. HOW IS IT THAT CERTIFIED REPAIR CENTERS DON'T KEEP UP ON THESE PROBLEMS. I SPENT A LOT OF TIME GOING BACK AND FORTH TO THE DEALERSHIP. AND WHY ISN'T NISSAN COVERING THE PROBLEM. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN NISSAN FOR THIS AND HAS MADE ME CHANGE MY MIND ABOUT MY NEXT VEHICLE PURCHASE. *TR

TRUCK IN MID 50'S RANDOMLY STALLS AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND WILL NOT RESTART. ALL SYMPTOMS IDENTICAL TO EVERY OTHER OF THE MANY THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS OF ECM/IPDM FAILURE. NISSAN CLAIMS RELAY FOR RECALL WAS CHANGED IN 2011, THAT WE HAVE NO OPEN RECALL AND NO OTHER RECOURSE OTHER THAN TO CALL NISSAN AMERICA--EVEN FOR JUST A REPLACEMENT RELAY THAT COSTS THEM PENNIES. NISSAN AMERICA SAYS THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP MUST RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. THESE HUGE TRUCKS ARE STALLING AT HIGHWAY SPEED ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. I SPECIFICALLY ASKED MY LOCAL DEALER TO CHECK FOR THIS KNOWN ISSUE THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED AND THEY KEPT MY TRUCK FOR A WEEK AND CHANGED THE BATTERY TERMINALS--FOR $400 INSTEAD OF CHECKING THE $4.00 RELAY. THAT'S RETAIL--IT COSTS THEM ABOUT A QUARTER. EVEN WITH THE .3 HOURS OF LABOR, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER $90 FOR ME AT FULL RETAIL. INSTEAD, I STALLED AGAIN AT HIGHWAY SPEED 3 WEEKS LATER. I DO NOT BELIEVE FOR A MINUTE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NO DEATHS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM. HOW HAS THERE NOT BEEN A FULL INVESTIGATION AND NEWS REPORTS OF THIS FREQUENTLY REPORTED PROBLEM? *TR

THE DOOR HANDLES ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN FREEZE EVERY TIME THE TEMPERATURE DROPS BELOW FREEZING . I LIVE IN THE NORTHEAST ! I BOUGHT THE TRUCK FOR SAFE WINTER DRIVING BUT WHEN THE TEMPERATURE DROPS BELOW FREEZING THE DOOR HANDLE FREEZES UP AND WONT OPEN . IF YOU DO MANAGE TO SOMEHOW GET THE DOOR OPEN YOU CAN NOT CLOSE IT AGAIN UNTIL IT THAWS OUT . MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER BOTH USE THIS VEHICLE AND I CONSIDER THIS AN UNSAFE ISSUE. I HAVE ALSO READ MANY FORUMS PERTAINING TO THIS PROBLEM AND AM WONDERING WHY THIS HAS NOT BECOME A RECALL. *TR

ON NOVEMBER 30, 2010 WHILE DRIVING MY SON TO SCHOOL MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED-UP AND THE RACK & PINION LEAKED ALL THE OIL AND THE TRUCK WAS TOTALLY DISABLED. ALSO JULY 30, 2011(MILEAGE 28830) IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE GOING ON VACATION WITH MY FAMILY TO LOS ANGELES. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY I HEARD SOME VIBRATION ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE STEERING TOTALLY DISENGAGED FROM THE RACK & PINION. WE WERE NOT ABLE TO STEER THE WHEEL AT ALL THAT WE HAD TO STOP AND GET HELP. ALSO DECEMBER 29, 2012 (MILEAGE 33323) IT HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE PULLING THE TRUCK OUT OF MY GARAGE, THIS TIME IT LEAKED ALL THE OIL FROM THE RACK & PINION AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS VERY STIFF TO DRIVE. I FEEL THAT THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE SOMEBODY CAN GET BADLY INJURED OR KILLED BECAUSE IT'S REALLY UNSAFE TO DRIVE THIS TRUCK. FUTURE NISSAN WHERE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK WILL NOT HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE & ARE DENYING TO FIX MY TRUCK AGAIN BECAUSE THEY ARE SAYING IT'S THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. I ASK THAT YOU PLEASE HELP ME RESOLVE THIS MATTER. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE STARTED EXHIBITING A CLICKING SOUND AND FELT AS IT WERE ATTEMPTING TO SEIZE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE DRIVE KNUCKLE THAT WAS WITHIN THE DIFFERENTIAL HAD FAILED. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT REPLACE PARTS ON THE DIFFERENTIAL AND THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO PURCHASE AN ENTIRE REAR END FOR THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 128,000.

MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN IS EXHIBITING THE FAILURES AS OUTLINED IN NISSAN NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN 06V459000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM / WIRING HARNESS) AND NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM / FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM). AFTER REPORTING MY ISSUES TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER AND NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, I WAS TOLD MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN EITHER RECALL CAMPAIGN. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS FINALLY GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER AND TOLD ME TO HAVE MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER DIAGNOSE THE TRUCK AND PROVIDE THE WRITTEN DIAGNOSIS AND COST ESTIMATE TO A NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS SPECIALIST. AFTER PAYING $85 FOR A DIAGNOSIS, THE LOCAL DEALER CONFIRMED IN A WRITTEN DIAGNOSIS AND ESTIMATE, THAT MY TRUCK WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURES THAT THE 2 RECALLS CITE AND THAT MY TRUCK NEEDED THE SAME REMEDIES AS OUTLINED IN THE RECALLS. AFTER PROVIDING THIS INFORMATION TO THE NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS SPECIALIST, NISSAN DECLINED TO COVER MY REPAIRS STATING THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED, I DID NOT HAVE A COMPLETE HISTORY OF NISSAN SERVICING MY VEHICLE AND THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUTSIDE THE LIMITED WARRANTY TERM. I KNEW MY TRUCK WAS OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY TERM, MY TRUCK NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL CAMPAIGN, WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH WARRANTY. NISSAN IS NEGLIGENT IN NOT INCLUDING MY TRUCK IN THE RECALL. I HAVE SEEN THIS SAME COMPLAINT FROM NUMEROUS OTHERS IN MY SAME SITUATION, ON THIS WEBSITE AND OTHER ONLINE FORUMS. THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED AS THEY OBVIOUSLY ARE NOT COVERING ALL VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THE FAILURES CITED. *TR

LOUD EXHAUST SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT, ON BOTH SIDES FOR THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. DUE TO A CRACKED MANIFOLD. I COULD ALSO SMELL EXHAUST FUMES INSIDE. I KEEP THE WINDOW CRACKED OPEN WHEN I DRIVE FOR SAFETY REASONS, MOSTLY WHEN I HAVE MY WIFE AND KIDS IN THE VEHICLE. *TR

AXLE SEAL FAILURE RESULTING IN OIL ON THE INSIDE OF BOTH REAR WHEELS AND OIL SOAKING REAR BRAKES RENDERING REAR BRAKES USELESS. *TR

I WAS ON MY WAY HOME, FROM AN ERRAND. THE ENGINE BEGAN TO RUN IRREGULARLY, THEN SHUT OFF. AT FIRST I DID NOT THINK I WAS OUR OF GAS BECAUSE THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATED THAT THERE WAS 1/4 TANK OF GAS. AFTER I TRIED A FEW TIMES AND FAILED TO GET IT STARTED I WALKED TO A GAS STATION AND GOT GAS, PUT IT IN THE TANK AND MY VEHICLE STARTED. AT THE TIME OF THIS INCIDENT I WAS FORTUNATE THAT I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO A WIDE DRIVEWAY AND AVOID BEING REAR ENDED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE DISPLAYED THE FUEL TANK AS BEING ONE QUARTER TANK FULL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE MALFUNCTIONED AND WAS PROVIDING INACCURATE FUEL LEVEL READINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE ISSUE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 126,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 137,405.

THE REAR END WAS REPLACED BEFORE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK AND JUST 3 YEARS LATER I HAD TO HAVE THE LEFT REAR AXLE SEAL REPLACED AND NOW IM HAVING TO REPLACE THE RIGHT SIDE AXLE SEAL. IM NOT TOO SURE THAT ITS NOT DAMAGED THE REAR END ITSELF. I HAD A CASE NUMBER WITH NISSAN NORTH AMERICA BUT BECAUSE OF THE TIME ITS BEEN OUT OF WARRANTY THEY WONT REPLACE ANYTHING. THERE ARE TOO MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIRS FOR THERE NOT TO BE SOMETHING DONE ABOUT IT. THESE SEALS SHOULD NOT BE GOING OUT THAT QUICK. *TR

RADIATOR BEGAN LEAKING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED DUE TO CRACKS/SEPARATION OF PLASTIC COMPONENTS. *TR

ORIGINALLY HEARD A LIGHT NOISE ON DECELERATION. WAS UNSURE OF ORIGIN OR SEVERITY BUT SUSPECTED BRAKE WEAR. NOISE CHANGED OVER THE COURSE OF A MONTH AND ON FINAL TRIP INTO NEARBY SHOP FOR DIAGNOSTICS IT HAD GROWN MUCH LOUDER WHILE DECELERATING. SHOP SUSPECTED REAR AXLE SEAL LEAK AND DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE. HAD TRUCK FLATBED TOWED TO NEARBY NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY FOUND LITTLE EVIDENCE OF LEAK AND PLENTY OF FLUID. YET THE DIFFERENTIAL HAD FAILED ENTIRELY. THEY SUSPECTED A RING AND PINION FAILURE THOUGH THEY DIDN'T CRACK OPEN THE CASE AS PARTS/LABOR MAKE REPAIR PROHIBITIVELY COSTLY. AFTER CHECKING SALVAGE PRICES THEY RECOMMENDED A FULL REPLACEMENT WITH A NEW NISSAN AXLE. I WAS LUCKY BECAUSE APPARENTLY THIS KIND OF DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE CAN LOCK UP THE REAR WHEELS WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED CAUSING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS TRUCK IS PRIMARILY DRIVEN AROUND TOWN. IT'S NEVER DRIVEN OFF-ROAD AND NEVER TOWED ANYTHING NOR CARRIED LARGE LOADS - IT'S BEEN BABIED. SEALS AND DIFFERENTIALS SHOULD NOT PREMATURELY FAIL IN A LIGHTLY DRIVEN, WELL-MAINTAINED VEHICLE WHICH WAS DESIGNED AND PROMOTED FOR HEAVY DUTY USE. *TR

REAR AXEL SEAL IS LEAKING FOR THE THIRD TIME, WHICH CAN COMPROMISE THE REAR BRAKES WITH AXEL FLUID. NISSAN MADE THE FIRST REPAIR AT 30,000 MILES UNDER WARRANTY. I PAID FOR PARTS AND MADE REPAIRS MYSELF THE SECOND TIME. NOW AT THE THIRD I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, AND THEY HAVE REFUSED, WITH NO EXPLANATION, TO HELP WITH THIS REPAIR, EVEN THOUGH THEY ISSUED AN INTERNAL SERVICE BULLETIN IN 2010, TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE AXEL WITH BEARING AND SEAL. SO NISSAN IS AWARE THAT THEY HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE EARLY MODEL TITANS. I GUESS THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIE BEFORE THEY ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. *TR

LEFT SIDE REAR WHEEL, AXLE SEAL LEAKING ONTO BRAKE DISC. DIAGNOSED WHEN I HAD NEW TIRES INSTALLED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY TRUCK HOME FROM WORK,I NOTICED THE SOUND OF THE EXHAUST BECAME PROGRESSIVELY LOUDER. I PARKED THE TRUCK FOR THE NIGHT. PRIOR TO LEAVING THE NEXT MORNING I TRIED TO LOCATE THE SOURCE OF THE INCREASED NOISE. HOWEVER, I NOTICED AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE THE NOISED WOULD DECREASE. THEREFORE, I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS. HE TOLD ME THAT THE HEADER ON ONE SIDE IS CRACKED AND THE OTHER HEADER ON THE OTHER-SIDE SHOWS SIGNS OF STRESS. ALSO, HE EXPLAINED THIS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE NISSAN TITAN AND I MIGHT WANT TO EXPLORE MY REPAIR OPTION WITH THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP. HOWEVER, AFTER DISCUSSING THIS ISSUE WITH THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THE NOTORIOUS ISSUE AND THE COST OF THE REPAIR IS MY RESPONSIBILITY. UPON HEARING THIS, I DECIDE I WOULD LODGE MY COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS ISSUE HERE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE PARKED, THE CONTACT SMELLED A STRONG ODOR OF RADIATOR FLUID INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. HE ALSO NOTICED A CONSTANT LEAK OF FLUID FROM THE RADIATOR WHICH FORMED A LARGE PUDDLE ON THE GROUND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER THREE TIMES WHERE THE RADIATOR WAS REPLACED EACH TIME. MOST RECENT THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE MALFUNCTION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE UNAVAILABLE.

THE EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE PADS FELL OF THE SHOES INSIDE THE REAR DISK DRUM, AND WEDGED INSIDE CAUSING THE REAR TIRE TO LOCKUP, FOR A SECOND, AND CAUSE THE TRUCK TO JERK AND MAKE A LOUD NOISE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXHAUSTS MANIFOLD CRACKED DUE TO DEFECTIVE MATERIAL AND CAUSED THE FUMES TO PENETRATE THE VEHICLE INTERIOR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL TICKING SOUND. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TICKING SOUND WOULD CEASE AFTER THE ENGINE BECAME WARM. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER FOR THE FAILURE. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WAS CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER DID NOT STATE WHAT CAUSED THE MANIFOLD TO CRACK. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN PICKUP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT STARTED SPUTTERING AND RAN OUT OF FUEL ON THE HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THERE WAS A RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER: STORAGE: FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM). THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT AFTER HAVING THE RECALL REPAIRS PERFORMED, STRONG FUMES CONTINUED TO EMIT IN AND AROUND THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE PASS 40 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER IN THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WITHIN THE WEEK TO REPAIR THE FUEL SYSTEM. THE DEALER REPAIRED THE FUEL LEVEL SENDER AND THE ECM RELAY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.

PRIOR TO LEAVING FOR A TRIP I STOPED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT I BOUGHT THE TRUCK FROM INFORMED ME THAT THE EXHAUST WAS BROKEN DUE TO RUST I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO ISSUE WITH DRIVING IT TO NC FROM CT ON THE WAY BACK FROM NC THE TRAILER LIGHTS FAILED AND I STARTED RECEIVING SLIP ABS BRAKE AND 4WD LIGHTS ON MY DASH. I RETURN THE TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE EXHAUST HAD MELTED THE WIRING HARNESS WHERE IT HAD BROKE/RUSTED. I SPOKE TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THIS WAS A COMMON ISSUE WHERE THE WIRING HARNESS WOULD MELT WHEN THE EXHAUST BRAKES/RUSTS... I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THEY HAD SEEN SOME WHERE THE WHOLE TAIL LAMP HAD MELTED. *TR

THE VEHICLE BRAKING BEGAN TO DETERIORATE SO I CHECKED EACH WHEEL, FRONT AND BACK. WHILE INSPECTING THE REAR BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS I NOTICED OIL ON BOTH. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION I NOTICED THAT THE REAR AXLE SEAL ON BOTH SIDES WAS LEAKING OIL AND IT HAD GOTTEN ON THE ROTORS AND PADS. I REPLACED BOTH ROTORS AND ALL PADS ON THE REAR, AND INSPECTED THE REAR AXLE VENT WHICH I FOUND PLUGGED. I INSTALLED A NEW VENT BUT THE REAR AXLE SEALS ARE STILL LEAKING AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. IN DOING RESEARCH ON THE PROBLEM I FOUND IT TO BE COMMON ON THIS VEHICLE. *TR

TRAVELING AT 65 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE RAN OUT OF GAS. THE FUEL GAUGE INDICATED THAT THERE WAS BETWEEN 1/4 AND 1/8 OF A TANK REMAINING AND THE LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT HAD NOT COME ON. MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE ENGINE WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. UPON ADDING 1.5 GALLONS OF FUEL THE VEHICLE RE-STARTED ON THE FIRST TRY SO IT WAS DEFINITELY OUT OF GAS. NISSAN HAS A RECALL FOR THIS VERY ISSUE BUT I WAS TOLD IT DOES NOT COVER MY VIN# ALTHOUGH IT IS FOR SOME VEHICLES OF MY MAKE AND MODEL YEAR. I PAID TO HAVE THE FUEL SENSOR IN THE GAS TANK REPAIRED AND THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY IMMEDIATELY AND HAS NOT RESURFACED. NISSAN MAY NEED TO EXPAND THEIR RECALL AS MY VEHICLE DEFINITELY EXPERIENCED THE SYMPTOMS OF THE RECALLED VEHICLES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSE THAT THE FUEL SENDER UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM). THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 91,000.....UPDATED 10/11/12 *BF UPDATED 10/16/12

REAR DIFFERENTIAL SPIDER GEARS BROKE APART, LEAVING ME WITH NO POWER TO DRIVE TRAIN OR ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THERE WAS A LOUD BANG HEARD FROM THE TRANSMISSION AS THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT GEARS. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE OVERDRIVE AND THIRD GEARS WOULD NOT OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,000. UPDATED 9/13/12 *CN

REAR RIGHT AXLE SEAL BEGAN TO LEAK ON 5/14/12 WAS ABOUT TO GET FIXED -KEPT DIFF FULL- (SECOND TIME HAPPENED)... ON 7/27/12 REAR SPIDER GEARS BROKE CAUSING THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL TO DRAG ACROSS THE PAVEMENT IN A PARKING LOT. THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH 04-07 OFFROAD TITANS WITH THE LOCKING REAR DIFF. IF THIS FAILURE HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE REAR WHEELS WERE TO HAVE STOPPED MOVING IT COULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH. NISSAN HAS SINCE REDESIGNED THE REAR END BUT THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR SAFETY CONCERNS. *TR

GOT IN MY TRUCK TO GO TO WORK TODAY AND WHILE TURNING RIGHT OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY THE ENGINE REVVED UP AND I WAS GOING NO WHERE. I LET OFF THE GAS AND AS THE MOTOR RPM CAME DOWN THERE WAS A LOUD BANG AND THE VEHICLE JUMPED FORWARD. CONTINUED DOWN THE ROAD ABOUT 200FT AND TURNED AROUND. PARKED THE TRUCK. CHECKED THE FLUID. METAL SHAVINGS AND CHUNKS INSIDE WITH PLENTY OF FLUID. ALSO NOTICED A LEAKING REAR WHEEL SEAL ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THIS TRUCK ONLY HAS 78000 MILES ON IT. ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE NISSAN. *TR

WAS LEAVING A PARKING LOT AND WHEN TURNING TO THE LEFT FELT A BUMP LIKE SOMETHING HAD BEEN RUN OVER.DROVE HOME AND FELT BUMP SEVERAL MORE TIMES WHEN TURNING LEFT ONLY. REMOVED FILL PLUG AND SAW PIECES ON METAL ON DRAIN PLUG MAGNET. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD AXLE HAD FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.VEHICLE GAVE NO WARNING SIGNS AND HAD ALL SCHEDULED SERVICE DONE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED A READING OF ONE QUARTER OF A TANK BUT WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO BE REPAIRED WHERE THEY INFORMED THAT THE TITAN SENDER UNIT FUEL GAUGE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000.

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

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT EVENTUALLY NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE WAS NOT DISPLAYING THE PROPER FUEL LEVEL READING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE HEARD A GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH. THE CONTACT STOPPED AND EXITED THE VEHICLE. WHILE ALLOWING ANOTHER PERSON TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE GRINDING NOISE WAS COMING FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL COMPLETELY FAILED AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SAFE TO BE DRIVEN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,920. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

THE SEAT BELT ANCHORS ON THE REAR SEATS ARE TOO HIGH SINCE THERE ARE NO HEIGHT ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE SEAT BELT; SHORTER PASSENGERS DO NOT USE THE SEAT BELT AT ALL SINCE THE BELT CUTS INTO THEIR NECK. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE HEARD A CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTICS. THE CONTACT WAS UNAWARE OF THE REPAIRS NEEDED BUT STATED THAT THE NOISE WAS RELATED TO THE SUSPENSION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

ON 7/12/07 NISSAN HAD TO REPLACE BOTH EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ON THE TRUCK WITH 41,795 MILES ON IT. THESE WERE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND NOW AGAIN AT 106,000 MILES BOTH EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ARE AGAIN CRACKED. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THESE MANIFOLDS ONLY LAST 50-60,000 MILES BEFORE THEY FAIL AND THAT THEY ARE REPLACING TH *TTEM ON ALL THE TRUCKS. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THEY ARE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IF I GO TO TITAN TALK WEBSITE THERE ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. SEEMS LIKE A FAULTY PART THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF. *TT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR AXLE WAS LEAKING AND BOTH SEALS WERE BROKEN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE HAD BEEN REPAIRED BEFORE UNDER A MANUFACTURER'S VOLUNTARY RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR AXLE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 69,000.

I LOOKED OUTSIDE AND HAD A PUDDLE OF OIL UNDER THE FRONT OF MY TRUCK. GOT THE TRUCK TO A MECHANIC AND HE INFORMED ME THAT THE FRONT AXLE POPPED OUT OF PLACE. THIS TRUCK IS STOCK, NO LIFTS AND NEVER GOES OFF ROAD. SO THIS HAPPENED UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. A FRONT AXLE SHOULD NOT JUST POP OUT OF PLACE. I JUST GOT IT BACK FROM REPLACING THE REAR AXLE AND SEALS AS BOTH WERE LEAKING. ALSO THE REAR SHACKLES ON THE VEHICLE ROTTED OUT. THIS VEHICLE HAS WAY TOO MANY PROBLEMS FOR NISSAN NOT TO BE RECALLING AND FIXING THESE ISSUES. *TR

THE REAR END WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY IN MY 2005 TITAN AT 55K MILES NO CHARGE DUE TO OVAL SHAPED AXLE TUBES CAUSING AXLE SEAL FAILURE. HERE I AM AGAIN 2012 WITH 115K MILES OUT OF WARRANTY BUT ONLY 60K MILES ON THE REAR END THAT WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND HAVE THE SAME ISSUE BLOWN AXLE SEALS DUE TO OUT OF ROUND AXLE TUBES. IF YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE THIS ALL THE AXLE OIL CAN LEAK OUT CAUSING SUDDEN REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE WHICH MAY LEAD TO A CRASH OR LOSS OF LIFE. NISSAN WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THIS ISSUE AFTER THE SEALS WHERE REPLACED IN THE SECOND REAR END AND THE SEALS CONTINUE TO LEAK AFTER REPLACEMENT. NISSAN REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE ISSUE AND STATED "YOUR TRUCK IS OUT OF WARRANTY" IMO THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ON THE AXLES LEAKING ALONG WITH THE CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLDS THAT WERE NUMEROUS REPORTED ALSO. VISIT THE NISSAN FORUMS AND YOU CAN VIEW 44 PAGES OF DIFFERENTIAL ISSUES ON TITAN TALK.COM. NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE... *TR

MY REAR LEAF SPRING SHACKLE SNAPPED PUNCHING A HOLE THOUGH THE TRUCK BED OPENING IT UP LIKE A TUNA CAN WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND NEARLY LOST CONTROL IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE WHERE THERE WERE QUITE A FEW PEOPLE WORKING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. DID SOME INVESTIGATING AND IT SEEMS LIKE A PRETTY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE 04-07 TITANS AND AM WONDERING WHY I (OR THE THOUSANDS OF OTHERS WHO'VE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM) WERE NOT INFORMED ABOUT THIS FROM THE FINE FOLKS AT NISSAN BEFORE PEOPLE GET KILLED. I WOULD HAVE PAID TO REPLACE THEM MYSELF HAD I JUST BEEN TOLD.....ITS NOT ABOUT THE MONEY...SAFETY IS NUMBER ONE IN MY BOOK ESPECIALLY WHEN I'M HAULING AROUND MY 18 MONTH OLD IN SOMETHING THAT THE FACTORY KNOWS HAS A LIFE THREATENING DEFECT AND DOESN'T TELL ANYONE!!!!!!!! SINCERELY PISSED!! *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS MORE COMMON FAILURES THAN ANY I HAVE SEEN. BOTH OF THE REAR LEAF SPRING SHACKLES ROTTED OUT. THE REAR AXLE SEALS ARE NOW LEAKING. IN 6 MONTHS I HAVE REPLACED 2 OXYGEN SENSORS AND NOW FOR THE 2ND TIME I AM REPLACING THE EVAP CANISTER CONTROL VALVE. NISSAN SEEMS TO IGNORE ALL OF THESE ISSUES AND HAS REDESIGNED MANY OF THESE PROBLEM AREAS IN NEWER MODELS HOWEVER DOES NOT OWN UP TO FIXING THE ISSUES ON VEHICLES THAT ARE ON THE ROAD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED AND REPAIRED IN THE RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 06V459000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AFTER THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE TECHNICIANS STATED THAT THE WIRING HARNESS WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REPAIR WAS PERFORMED PREVIOUSLY UNDER THE RECALL, BUT THE WIRES WERE NOT REROUTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 72,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE SEIZED SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR SEAL WAS DEFECTIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 98,000.

DRIVING NORTH ON THE HIGHWAY @ 70MPH, VEHICLE BACKFIRED AND ENGINE SHUT DOWN, NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES. MOVED VEHICLE OFF THE HIGHWAY, CRANKED BUT WOULD NOT START. LEFT VEHICLE FOR THE DAY AND RETURNED AND REPLACED A RECALLED (BUT KNOWN GOOD REPLACEMENT) ECM RELAY AND VEHICLE STARTED AND RAN CORRECTLY BUT SHOWED SES LIGHT AND CODE SHOWED P0335 CRK POS SENSOR. THIS VEHICLE HAD A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE WHILE DRIVING WHICH REPRESENTED A SERIOUS HAZARD TO BOTH THE DRIVER AND SURROUNDING VEHICLES SHOULD THE DRIVER HAS PANICKED IN THIS SITUATION AND HEAVY TRAFFIC. TO DATE THE VEHICLE IS A NISSAN FACILITY AND STILL HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED AT GREAT EXPENSE AND INCONVENIENCE TO THE OWNER. *TR

IN APRIL 2011 MY REAR AXLE SEALS ON MY NISSAN TITAN WERE LEAKING. I HAD THESE SEALS REPLACED WITH GENUINE NISSAN PARTS. NOT EVEN 11 MONTHS LATER, I WAS COMING HOME FROM CAMPING, AND AT APPROX 45 MPH I HEARD A LOUD POP, AND METAL ON METAL IN MY REAR WHEELS. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND FOUND A MECHANIC WITHIN .2 OF A MILE. HE TOLD ME THAT MY REAR AXLES SEALS FAILED, BLEW OUT THE BEARINGS, AND THE ONLY THING HOLDING MY WHEEL ON WAS THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER. I HAD TO HAVE THE TRUCK TOWED TO NISSAN, AND HAVE A WHOLE NEW REAR AXLE ASSEMBLY INSTALLED ($4000). THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS TO NISSAN ABOUT THESE REAR AXLES FAILING, STARTING WITH THE SEALS....THE SERVICE MANAGER HAS SEEN MANY OF THESE TRUCKS COME IN FOR NEW REAR AXLES. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM NISSAN OWNERS AS WELL. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS DEFECT, BUT WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. IF I DIDN'T PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY, MY WHEEL MIGHT HAVE FALLEN OFF (ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC). I'M ASKING FOR SOMEONE TO LOOK INTO THIS BEFORE SOMEONE DIES FROM THIS DEFECT. THANK YOU. *TR

BOTH EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ON MY TRUCK HAVE CRACKED. THE SERVICE WRITER AT THE DEALERSHIP COULD HEAR IT BEFORE I EVEN SAID ANYTHING. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR NISSAN TITANS. THIS COULD POSSIBLY ALLOW EXHAUST GASES INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THERE WAS A LEAK COMING FROM THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD, CAUSING THE ODOR TO ENTER THROUGH THE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

IN AUGUST OF 2010 WAS THE FIRST TIME I EXPERIENCED A PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND DIED WHILE DRIVING ON A MAIN STREET GOING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH. LATER I DISCOVERED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF GAS DESPITE THE FUEL GAUGE BEING AT 1/4 TANK. TODAY, AFTER NEARLY 1 1/2 OF KEEPING MY TRUCK ABOVE 1/4 TANK AND LOGGING MY MILES, THE VEHICLE ENGINE POWER DIED ON ME AND FAILED TO START BECAUSE ONCE AGAIN IT WAS OUT OF FUEL...THIS TIME READING JUST UNDER 1/2 TANK. BOTH SITUATIONS ARE EXTREMELY UNSAFE AND CAUSED UNNECESSARY STRESS. I'VE CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY ARE AWARE OF PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL SENDING UNIT ON THE NISSAN TITAN MODEL TRUCKS BUT CAN NOT DO ANYTHING WITHOUT THE OFFICIAL RECALL. IT IS WIDELY KNOWN THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON SOME OF THE NISSAN TITAN MODELS AND SHOULD BE EXTENDED THROUGHOUT ALL OF THE FAILING FUEL SYSTEMS BEFORE MYSELF OR SOMEONE IS FACED WITH EXTREME INJURY. *TR *JS

REAR DIFFERENTIAL COMPLETELY FAILED AT 102,000 MILES. VEHICLE NOT DRIVABLE. DO NOT USE THE VEHICLE OFF ROAD WITH VERY LITTLE TOWING. THIS IS MY WIFE'S VEHICLE.NISSAN REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE ANY DEFECT. COST TO REPAIR $3K. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE SERVICE ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR WAS CONTINUOUSLY ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO BOTH INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WAS CRACKED AND WOULD REQUIRE REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. UPDATED 03/26/12 *BF CONSUMER HAD TALKED TO NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE AND WAS ADVISED TO WRITE TO NISSAN CORPORATION ABOUT THE REIMBURSEMENT OF THE COST FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ON THE CONSUMERS VEHICLE. CONSUMER READ THAT THE MANIFOLDS WAS FAULTY AND MAY POSE A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE EXHAUST FUMES LEAKING INTO THE CAR CABIN. CONSUMER REPORTED TO NETS FOR AN INVESTIGATION OF THE FAULTY COMPONENT. CONSUMER WOULD LIKE TO BE INFORMED OF ANY RECALL ACTION FROM NISSAN CORPORATION. UPDATED 6/7/12 *SD

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE IN PARK, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHERE THE MECHANIC CONFIRMED THAT THE AIR BAG WIRING HARNESS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

2005 NISSAN TITAN SE - RIGHT REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKING ONTO BRAKES. 80,000 MILES ON TRUCK. *TR

ABS COMPUTER MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE HARNESS TO OVER HEAT, 4 WHEEL DRIVE HARNESS HAS MELTED AND WON`T ENGAGE 4 WHEEL DRIVE, IT ALSO EFFECTED THE AIR BAGS LIGHT ON DASH TO FLASH AND PASSENGER AIR BAGS TO SHUT OFF. *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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE CONTACT SMELLED SMOKE COMING FROM THE VEHICLE WHEN SHE DROVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER INSPECTION, SHE NOTICED THAT FLUID WAS LEAKING FROM THE VEHICLE. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,762.

THE REAR END OF MY VEHICLE IS MAKE ALOT OF NOISE WHICH SEEMS TO GET LOUDER AS I ACCELERATE. I FOUND OUT THAT NOISE IS COMING FOM THE DIFFERENTIAL. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE EMITTED FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MANEUVERED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND THEN THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. THE DEALER REPLACED THE REAR ASSEMBLY. TWO YEARS AFTER THE REPAIR WAS PERFORMED, THE IDENTICAL FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS AGAIN TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,400.

FAILED REAR END CAUSING COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER. I HAD TWO CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND THE EXPLOSION SCARED THEM TO SAY THE LEAST. *KB

LOWERED TAIL GATE TO LOAD AND NOTICED A LARGE BUMP IN THE BED LINER. UPON INSPECTION I FOUND THE LEAF SPRING SHACKLE HAD BROKEN AND THE SPRING HAD GONE THRU THE BED OF THE TRUCK. *TR

REAR AXLE SEALS LEAKING. DIFF FLUID IS GETTING ON THE BRAKE ROTORS, PADS,AND WHEELS. *TT

IN 2005 4 MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THE TITAN, I WAS INVOLVED IN A MINOR REAR END ACCIDENT THAT DENTED THE REAR BUMPER. 2 MONTHS AFTER THE ACCIDENT AND THE BUMPER WAS REPLACED I NOTICED SEEPAGE COMING FROM THE REAR AXLE. I THOUGHT IT WAS DUE TO THE ACCIDENT AND DID NOT HAVE THE SEALS REPLACED. IT WAS NOT. THE LEAK HAS ENTERED INTO MY EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM AND IT HAS NEVER PERFORMED PROPERLY. ON JANUARY 13, 2012 A LOUD NOISE FROM THE REAR END PROMPTED ME TO EXIT THE INTERSTATE WHERE I NOTICED SMOKE AND A BURNING OIL SMELL COMING FROM THE AXLE. THE BEARINGS WERE REPLACED AND I DROVE THE TRUCK FOR 20 MILES AND THE TRUCK BROKE DOWN AGAIN. I RESEACHED THE PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING SEAL LEAKS AND REPLACEMENT OF THE AXLE SHAFT. I ALSO FOUND A 2010 SERVICE BULLETIN FROM NISSAN INSTRUCTING REPLACEMENT OF THE AXLE SHAFT AND ASSOCIATED COMPONENTS. I HAVE 200,000 MILES ON MY TRUCK AND IT HAS PERFORMED RELATIVELY WELL, BUT I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH NISSAN FOR NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUE AND RISKING MY FAMILYS' SAFETY FOR 5 YEARS BEFORE ISSUING A SAFETY BULLETIN. *TR

2005 NISSAN TITAN 4X4 DIFFERENTIAL STARTED MAKING A NOISE WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT FROM STOP. WE WERE TOLD IT COULD BE LIMITED SLIP ISSUE AND HAVE FLUID CHANGED AND MAKE SURE SYNTHETIC LUBE IS PUT BACK IN. MECHANIC SHOWED ME A PART OF A SPIDER GEAR THAT WAS STUCK TO THE MAGNETIC DRAIN PLUG. SAID WE NEEDED A NEW LIMITED SLIP AND PROBABLY NOT PLANETARY GEARS. WE WERE SHOCKED WHEN WE WERE TOLD THAT NISSAN PROHIBITS THE DIFFERENTIAL MANUFACTURER FROM SELLING SEPARATE PARTS FOR THE DIFFERENTIAL - YOU HAVE TO PURCHASE THE COMPLETE DIFFERENTIAL FROM NISSAN AND IT COST $2800 JUST FOR THE PART. CHECKING THIS OUT ON BLOGS, IT APPEARS THAT NISSAN HAD THIS PROBLEM ON YEARS '04 - '06 MODEL YEARS AND THEY CHANGED TO A MORE SUBSTANTIAL DIFFERENTIAL IN 2008 BECAUSE THEY MUST HAVE SEEN THE GROUNDSWELL OF TOTALED OUT DIFFERENTIALS. MOST PEOPLE JUST SHELL OUT THE MONEY AND DON'T FILE COMPLAINTS SO UNLESS NISSAN IS FORCED TO COME CLEAN ON THE PROBLEM WE ARE YOU KNOW WHAT. MY WIFE DRIVES THIS TRUCK TO WORK EVERYDAY. WE HAVE PULLED A BOAT TRAILER 6 TIMES ON 30 MILE TRIPS. THIS IS A BUNCH OF YOU KNOW WHAT. *TR

FIRST HEARD ROARING (WUB WUB WUB WUB SOUND COMING FROM UNDERNEATH WHEN TRUCK WAS COASTING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH (NO ACCELERATOR PRESSED) THE FASTER I WAS COASTING THE LOUDER AND HIGHER THE SOUND BECAME. SOUNDED LIKE BAD TIRES, BUT UPON PRESSING ACCELERATOR PEDAL, NOISE WOULD COMPLETELY GO AWAY. I TOOK THE TRUCK HOME IMMEDIATELY AND CALLED MY MECHANIC TO COME DRIVE IT AND DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE. HE TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE, BROUGHT IT BACK AND TOLD ME DO NOT DRIVE THIS TRUCK; IT IS TOO DANGEROUS. SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THE DRIVE TRAIN PROBABLY THE WHEEL BEARINGS OF DIFFERENTIAL. HE WOULD NOT DRIVE IT TO HIS GARAGE EITHER AS HE HAD HIS YOUNG DAUGHTER AND HER FRIEND WITH HIM. HE CAME BACK WITH ANOTHER GUY TO DRIVE HIS VEHICLE AS HE WOULD DRIVE MINE TO HIS SHOP AND TOLD ME HE WOULD PUT IT ON THE LIFT AND CHECK IT OUT. HE DROVE AWAY. I WENT BACK INSIDE AND THEN A FEW MINUTES LATER I SEE HIM BACKING DOWN THE DRIVEWAY. I WENT OUT AND ASKED HIM WHAT WAS WRONG AT WHICH TIME HE INFORMED ME HE HEARD A CLANGING AND STOPPED IMMEDIATELY, AND UPON INSPECTION FOUND THE DRIVE SHAFT HAD FALLEN OUT ONTO THE GROUND. HE FOUND THE NUT AND REPAIRED IT WELL ENOUGH TO BACK IT TO MY HOME DOWN THE DRIVEWAY. HE SHOWED ME UNDERNEATH AND FLUID WAS EVERYWHERE. I COULD SEE A DEFINITE GAP BETWEEN THE DRIVESHAFT AND WHERE IT ATTACHES AT THE REAR AXLE. HE CAME BACK WITH A CAR-HAULER AND WILL INFORM ME AS TO THE FULL EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE. THANK GOD THIS CATASTROPHIC FAILURE DID NOT OCCUR ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEED WITH TRAFFIC. I HAVE ALSO HAD SEVERE BRAKE SHAKE LIKE MANY, MANY OTHER TITAN OWNERS. *TR

WAS DRIVING OUR 2005 NISSAN TITAN APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH WHEN THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED. WE WERE 30 SECONDS FROM GETTING ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE. THERE WAS A LOUD "POP" SOUND AND THE TRUCK JERKED AND SEEMED TO SLIP OUT OF GEAR AND LOCKED UP. THE TRUCK WAS BARELY DRIVABLE. OUR MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT IT WAS THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. WHEN HE CALLED NISSAN TO ORDER THE PARTS TO REBUILD IT, HE WAS TOLD BY THE NISSAN PARTS DISTRIBUTOR THAT BECAUSE OF "PREVIOUS PROBLEMS" WITH THE DIFFERENTIAL, THEY ONLY SELL THE ENTIRE DIFFERENTIAL PART, NOT THE INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS, THE PART ALONE WAS $2900. OUR ENTIRE BILL WAS $3800, AND OFCOURSE WE ARE OUT OF WARRANTY. WE CONDUCTED RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE AND FOUND 80 COMPLAINTS ON THIS NHTSA WEBSITE, COUNTLESS CONSUMER COMPLAINTS ON VARIOUS WEBSITES, AND EVEN SOME COURT CASES. NISSAN CLEARLY KNOWS ABOUT THIS POTENTIALLY LIFE-THREATENING ISSUE IN THE 2004 AND 2005 MODELS AND HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT TO PROTECT CONSUMERS. WE WILL BE PURSUING THIS WITH NISSAN AND WILL BE TAKING LEGAL ACTION IF NECESSARY. NOT SURE WHY NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT THIS ESPECIALLY GIVEN ALL THE COMPLAINTS OUT THERE. NHTSA SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AS THIS DEFECT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE A FATAL ACCIDENT (IF IT HASN'T ALREADY). SHAME ON YOU NISSAN. *TR

IT STOP WORKING FOR NO REASON . I WAS ON A ICY ROAD THE 4X4 LIGHT SAID THAT THE TRUCK WAS IN 4WHEEL DRIVE AN IT WASN,T .THAT CAUSE A NEAR ACIDENT! I GOT ONLINE AND I SEE THAT THIS IS A ON GOING PROBLEM SHOULD BE A RECALL

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN SE 4X4 OFF ROAD EDITION. WHILE GOING AROUND A CONNER I HEARD A LOUD POPING NOISE. I STOPPED THE TRUCK AND LOOKED UNDER IT. I NOTICED FLUID COMING FROM THE RIGHT REAR OF THE VEHICLE. I TOOK IT TO NISSAN AND THEY INSPECTED IT. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL BEARING. I ASKED THEM TO FIX IT. THEY PUT IN A NEW PART BUT THAT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY DID NOT CHARGE ME FOR THAT WORK. I THEN TALKED TO THE SHOP FOREMAN OF NISSAN AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A DOWL PIN COMING LOOSE BETWEEN THE SPIDER GEARS WITHOUT PULLING THE COVER OFF OR ANYTHING. HE SAID THAT THE REAR ENDS FAIL A DIME A DOZEN WITH MODELS 2004-2007. I ASKED HOW MUCH IT WOULD BE TO FIX IT AND I WAS TOLD 3200 DOLLARS. IF NISSAN HAS KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR SOME TIME I THINK THAT NISSAN NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT AND ACTUALLY ISSUE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I HAVE THE TRUCK IN STORAGE RIGHT NOW DUE TO THE MILITARY, BUT I WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE TO COME OUT OF POCKET AND GET IT REPAIRED. *TR

AFTER A FREEZE DURING THE NIGHT, I WENT TO OPEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. THE DOOR LATCH CABLE SNAPPED THE FIRST TIME I TRIED IT. THIS NOW POSES A HAZARD IF IN THE CASE OF AN EMERGENCY I CANNOT OPEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR. *KB

HAD A BAD SOUND COMING OUT OF FRONT TIRE AREA. NOTICED GREY OIL THE FOLLOWING DAY ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. 70,123 MILES ON IT. TOOK MY '05 TITAN TO MY SERVICE GUY. SAID THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL IS COMPLETELY GONE. GOT IT REPAIRED YESTERDAY, $2100....LOOKED ONLINE AND SAW FOLKS WITH THE SAME ISSUES, MANY FOLKS! SEEMS TO ME NISSAN SHOULD OWN UP TO THIS BEING AN ISSUE WITH THESE MODEL YEAR TRUCKS AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM (IE RECALL) BEFORE ITS A MAJOR ACCIDENT FOR SOMEONE. MY MECHANIC NOTICED THAT THE PART NUMBER WAS SUPERSEDED BY ANOTHER NUMBER, MOST LIKELY MEANING THAT NISSAN KNOWS OF THE ISSUE AND THAT'S THEIR WAY OF "CORRECTING" THE ISSUE. ONLY ISSUE NISSAN, CONSUMERS PAY FOR THE ISSUE. MAKES ME WANT TO RE-THINK ABOUT PURCHASING ANOTHER NISSAN PRODUCT, I HAVE TWO PRESENTLY. *KB

BOTH EXHAUST MANIFOLDS HAVE GONE BAD DUE TO CRACKS AND THUS HAVE EXHAUST LEAKS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED A READING INDICATING THAT FUEL WAS IN THE FUEL TANK AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANOTHER INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED OF THE RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

VEHICLE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED WITH OUT CAUSE. WITH ANY SLIGHT TURN OF THE WHEEL THE ENTIRE VEHICLE WOULD JUMP AND A LOUD KNOCKING SOUND WAS HERD AT THE REAR END. NISSAN DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE VENT TUBES CORRODED CAUSING PRESSURE TO BUILD UP IN THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL AND THE SPYDER GEAR(S) FAIL. NISSAN WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE AND DOES NOT SUPPLY REBUILD PARTS FOR THE VEHICLE- THEIR ONLY FIX IS FOR ME TO PURCHASE A NEW REAR AXLE. SEARCHING ON GOOGLE HAS REVIEWED 168,000 HITS FOR THIS PROBLEM. I FIND IT DIFFICULT TO BELIEVE THAT THIS IS AN ISOLATED ISSUE. MY LOCAL TRANSMISSION SHOP IS UNABLE TO LOCATE A USED REAR AXLE AS DEMAND FOR THESE PARTS IS EXTREMELY HIGH. HAD THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY IT PROBABLY WOULD HAVE CAUSED A FATAL ACCIDENT AS A SUDDEN LOCKING OF THE REAR END AT 60 MPH PLUS WOULD CAUSE A LOSS OF CONTROL. *TR

2005 NISSAN TITAN KING CAB 2X4 LEAKING OIL FROM BOTH SIDE OF THE AXLE. PROBLEM AXLE SEEK FAILURE. UPON TAKING THE TRUCK INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR CHECKUP AND THEY QUOTED ME FOR ABOUT $1700.00 IN REPAIRS. AS PER THERE TSB THEY WILL REPLACE BOTH AXLE SEALS AND AXLE "TSB NTB10-032" IF THE SEALS FAIL ON MOST OF THE TITAN'S SHOULDN'T NISSAN DO A RECALL ON THIS PLUS WHEN I WAS THERE THE SERVICE MAN STATED THAT THERE TSB SAYS TO REPLACE BOTH AXLE WHICH DRIVES UP THE COST INSTEAD OF JUST REPLACING THE AXLE SEAL. *TR

2005 NISSAN TITAN BOTH REAR AXLE SEAL ARE LEAKING AXLE FLUID. *KB

I WAS IN NEW YORK FOR THE WEEK. I WAS CURRENTLY OUT SPOTTING DEER, I WENT TO TURN AROUND, I PUT THE TRUCK IN REVERSE AND IT SOUNDED LIKE MY REAR END BLEW UP. I THEN CONTINUED TO CAMP. THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO DRIVE IT AND IT POPPEDLIKE CRAZY MAKING A BIG NOISE IN REAR. I DROVE IT TO A GARAGE AND THEY CHECKED MY REAR DIFFERENTIAL AND SAID MY SPIDER GEARS IN THE REAR END SNAPPED. THERE WAS PIECES OF GEARS ALL THROUGH MY REAR DIFFERENTIAL. THIS IS A DANGEROUS THING THAT CAN HAPPEN AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING WITH NISSAN TITANS. I NOTIFIED NISSAN AND WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO A NISSAN GARAGE, THE CLOSEST GARAGE IS 47 MILES I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR TOWING AND EVERYTHING THERE IS NO RECALL ON THE REAR AXLES BUT THERE SHOULD BE BECAUSE THIS IS HAPPENING ALL OVER. TITAN REAR ENDS ARE TO SMALL FOR THE TRUCK. ALSO IT IS GOING TO COST AROUND 3000 BECAUSE NISSAN DOES NOT MAKE THE PARTS FOR REAR AXLE, HOW PATHETIC IS THAT! *TR

THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAD FUEL. THE VEHICLE STALLED ON THE HIGHWAY, IN TRAFFIC, AND WAS OUT OF GAS. AT THE TIME WE HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS WRONG AND ONLY KNEW IT WOULD NOT START. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHO DIAGNOSED IT WAS OUT OF GAS AND THE FUEL SENDER WAS FAULTY. THE FUEL SENDER RESIDES INSIDE THE FUEL TANK ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX IT AT THEIR EXPENSE. OUR PARTICULAR VIN # IS NOT COVERED FOR THE IDENTICAL ISSUE THAT IS UNDER A CURRENT RECALL. *TR

AT HIGHWAY SPEED, VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND WOULD NOT RESTART STRANDING WIFE AND KIDS ON HIGHWAY. THE FUEL GAUGE SHOWED 1/4 TANK OF GAS, BUT IT WAS LATER FOUND THAT THE TANK WAS EMPTY. SAME CONDITION AS DOCUMENTED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN 10V074000, BUT NISSAN CORP. STATED THAT VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER PREVIOUS RECALL BECAUSE VIN RANGE/MANUFACTURE DATE IS PRIOR TO SPECIFICATIONS OF RECALL. NISSAN HAS STATED THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO AND HAS OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE IN THIS MATTER. *SAFETY ISSUE - A MAJOR COLLISION COULD HAVE OCCURRED AT HIGHWAY SPEED DUE TO VEHICLE'S INEXPLICABLE SHUT DOWN. *TR

I HAD BOTH REAR WHEEL AXLE SEALS THAT STARTED TO LEAK REPLACED ON MY NISSAN TITAN. (BOTH REPLACED BY THE NISSAN DEALER)THE RIGHT REAR AT 40,527 AND THE LEFT REAR AT 55,638. NOW AGAIN THE RIGHT REAR IS LEAKING AGAIN AT 79,000. I TALKED TO THE DEALER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND WAS TOLD THEY DON'T SEE A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH THESE WHEEL SEALS LEAKING. FROM WHAT I READ ABOUT OTHER OWNERS OF NISSAN TITANS I DISAGREE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT. GETTING OIL ON THE BRAKES IS A ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. NEED HELP HERE. THANKS. *TR

I HAVE NOTICED THAT MY REAR AXLE SEAL IS LEAKING AND HAVE BEEN LOOKING INTO IT AND EVERYTHING I HAVE COME ACROSS SAYS TO REPORT IT WITH NHTSA AND WITH THE COUPLE OF CARS I HAVE HAD FOR A LONG TIME AND ONE WAS A YR 1979 I HAVE NEVER SEEN THE REAR AXLE LEAK AND THEY HAD MORE MILES ON THEM I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS SO DIFFERENT BETWEEN THOSE CARS AND THIS ONE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

WHILE TAKING MY 05 TITAN IN FOR A SERVICE APPOINTMENT (TO REPLACE A MELTED WIRING HARNESS FROM MY TAILPIPE FALLING OFF, BUT THAT'S ANOTHER STORY/PROBLEM) I HEARD A SOFT WHINE. I REPORTED IT TO THE SERVICE MANAGER. HE CALLED ME BACK LATER IN THE DAY AND TOLD ME THAT IT WAS LIKELY A BEARING IN THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. HE SAID HE COULDN'T REPLACE THE BEARING, THAT THE DIFFERENTIAL WAS A COMPLETE ASSEMBLY AND HAD TO BE FULLY REPLACED AT A COST OF $2400. I ASKED HIM WHAT HE WOULD DO, AND HE SAID HE'D KEEP DRIVING IT UNTIL THE WHINE GOT TOO OBNOXIOUS. SO I DID NOT REPLACE IT. I PICKED THE TRUCK UP ON FRIDAY, 9/2/11. TWO DAYS LATER, WHILE SLOWING DOWN ON A HIGHWAY TO MAKE A TURN, I HEARD A GRATING SOUND, FOLLOWED BY THE TRUCK LOCKING UP. WHEN I GOT OUT, THE DRIVE SHAFT WAS LAYING ON THE GROUND. THE DIFFERENTIAL HAD LOCKED UP. HAD TO BE TOWED. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK TO BE ABLE TO DELIVER HAY, WHICH WITH MY TRAILER IS ABOUT 6,000 POUNDS. I DELIVER TYPICALLY 6 LOADS A YEAR, AND IT IS ABOUT A 10 MILE DRIVE TO MY CUSTOMER'S HOME. OVER 90% OF MY MILES ON THE TRUCK ARE HIGHWAY MILES, WITH THE CRUISE ON AND IN 2 WHEEL DRIVE. I DO NOT TAKE IT OFF ROAD. I ONLY USE 4 WHEEL DRIVE WHEN WE HAVE SNOW ON THE GROUND (2 OR 3 TIMES A YEAR). THE TRUCK IS GARAGED AT HOME AND AT WORK. THERE IS NO WAY THE DIFFERENTIAL SHOULD BE FAILING ON A FULL SIZE PICKUP TRUCK UNDER THESE CONDITIONS. I OPENED A CASE WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, AND TOLD THEM THAT I FELT NISSAN SHOULD PAY A SUBSTANTIAL PERCENTAGE OF THE REPAIR EVEN THOUGH THE TRUCK HAD 68,000 MILES AND THE WARRANTY RAN OUT AT 60,000 MILES. THEY REJECTED MY CLAIM AND PAID NOTHING. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN WITH ONLY 44000 MILES ON IT. DURING RECENT DRIVING IT SOUNDED AS IF THE RIGHT REAR WAS GRINDING TO PIECES. IT CONTINUALLY GOT WORSE SO I LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK TO SEE IF THERE WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS CAUGHT AND DRAGGING. IT WAS SO LOUD THAT PEOPLE WOULD STARE AT THE TRUCK WHEN IT PASSED BY. AFTER IT WAS TAKEN TO THE GARAGE THEY DISCOVERED THAT THE INSIDES OF THE RIGHT REAR AXLE WERE ALMOST COMPLETELY TORN APART. IT WAS VERY FORTUNATE THAT IT DID NOT CAUSE A SERIOUS PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING. THEY ALSO FOUND THAT THE LEFT AXLE WAS LEAKING AND WOULD LIKELY ALSO BREAK DOWN. THE COST TO REPAIR THE TRUCK WAS OVER $1700.00. *TR

CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ON BOTH SIDES OF V8 ENGINE AS DIAGNOSED BY NISSAN DEALER. RESULT -- WILL LEAK RAW EXHAUST GASES INTO PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AND INTO ATMOSPHERE. INVESTIGATION REVEALS CRACKED MANIFOLDS TO BE A HUGE PROBLEM FOR NISSAN TITANS AND LARGE NUMBERS OF TITANS ARE AFFECTED. NISSAN EMISSION WARRANTY ONLY COVERS 8YRS/80,000 MILES. BUT SINCE THESE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ARE CLEARLY DEFECTIVE DUE TO IMPROPER DESIGN AND POSE A SERIOUS SAFETY THREAT AND EMISSIONS PROBLEM THEY SHOULD BE REPLACED AT NISSAN'S EXPENSE REGARDLESS OF VEHICLE AGE OR MILEAGE. *TR

I NOTICED A BLACK DARK GREASE ON THE INNER RIM AND AXLE HUB. I WAS TOLD BY A NEIGHBOR WITH THE SAME MAKE AND YEAR THAT THIS IS A LEAKING BEARING SEAL AND THAT THE ENTIRE AXLE HAS TO BE REPLACED. I CONSIDER THIS A HAZARD IF THE BEARING SEAL HAS LEAKED ALL OVER THE REAR BRAKE PADS AND SHOES. *KB

A FEW DAYS LATER WHEN ALMOST HOME I TURNED THE CORNER AND HEARD A LOUD CLANKING SOUND IN THE REAR OF THE TRUCK. AS I GOT RIGHT AT MY STREET THE BACK END STARTED TO FREEZE UP AS THE TIRES STARTED TO LOCK UP I PARKED THE TRUCK ON SIDE OF ROAD. TRIED TO MOVE IT AFTER I LOOK UNDER THE TRUCK BUT IT WOULD NOT MOVE. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER WHERE I FOUND OUT THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED ON IT AT A COST OF $4000.00!!!! I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE AND SEEN HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE SAME ISSUE. NISSAN IS TELLING ME THAT THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE. I JUST THANK GOD THAT I WAS NEXT TO MY HOUSE AS I WOULD HAVE LOST CONTROL / GOT HURT / OR HURT SOMEONE ELSE IF IT LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. I CURRENTLY AWAITING IT TO BE FIXED. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO? *TR

DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WHEN REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED AS I WAS CROSSING INTERSECTION. *TR

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

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2005 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND THE VEHICLE WOULD MAKE A POPPING SOUND WHEN THE ENGINE WAS ON. THE EXHAUST WAS ALSO LEAKING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE MANIFOLD WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT ASSIST WITH THE REPAIRS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000 AND 200,000.

DRIVING HOME ONE EVENING THE TRUCK STARTED MAKING VERY LOUD NOISES IN THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER CHECKING IT SEVERAL TIMES FOR OBVIOUS PROBLEMS I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL GARAGE WHO INFORMED ME THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WAS THE PROBLEM. THEY ADVISED THERE WERE METAL SHAVINGS ALL INSIDE THE HOUSING. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN OFF ROAD PACKAGE. I BOUGHT IT WITH 55,000 MILES ON IT. AT PURCHASE, I BOUGHT A 3RD PARTY EXTENDED WARRANTY(CNA) THAT COVERS UP TO 100,000 MILES OR 3 YEARS WHICH EVER COMES FIRST. MY TRUCK HIT 75,422 MILES AND I NOTICED THAT IT MADE A CLICK NOISE ONCE IN A WHILE WHEN I MADE A LEFT TURN. MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY MECHANIC AND FOUND OUT THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL BLEW. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WHICH I BOUGHT IT FROM. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAD NO DEALINGS WITH NISSAN BRAND AND I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO GET IT EVALUTED. I HAD IT TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THEY CONTACTED THE 3RD PARTY WARRANTY CO. AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WILL NOT BE COVERED, BECAUSE I HAD NO PAPERWORK THAT THE TRUCK WAS SERVICED AT 50,000 MILES FOR THE DIFFERENTIAL. NISSAN TOLD ME THAT THEY AND THE WARRANTY COMPANY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME AND IF WANTED TO GET THE TRUCK FIXED, I WOULD HAVE TO COUGH UP 4,000 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THE WHOLE REAR AXLE. BEING SO FEED UP WITH THEM, I DECIDED TO GIVE THIS JOB TO MY MECHANIC WHICH HE PROJECTED TO ONLY COST 2,100 DOLLARS. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A LOYAL NISSAN CUSTOMER, BUT NISSAN REALLY LOOKS OUT FOR THEIR BEST INTEREST AND NOT THEIR CUSTOMER. ONCE MY TRUCK IS FIXED, I WILL BE TRADING IT IN FOR A CHEVY SILVERADO 1500. *TR

I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2005 NISSAN TITAN 4X4 WITH 75K MILES. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR EVERY RECOMMENDED SERVICE AND ON 3/31/2011 I NOTICED A CLUNKING IN THE REAREND WHILE MAKING SHARP TURNS. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD COST OVER $2700 TO REPLACE THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. HE HAD FOUND METAL CHUNKS IN THE DIFFERENTIAL FLUID. I BABY MY TRUCK, I DON'T TOW AND I DON'T 4X4. I CANNOT ACCEPT THE FACT THAT THIS SHOULD BE MY RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY FOR. THIS IS QUITE CLEARLY A FACTORY DEFECT. I'VE OWNED, CHEVY AND DODGE PICKUPS AND NEVER ONCE HAD A REAREND PROBLEM. I CONTACTED NISSAN USA WAS AND EXPLAINED MY STORY. THE DEALERSHIP THEN TOLD ME THEY HAD SPOKEN WITH NISSAN USA AND THEY WERE LEAVING ME WITH A $1500 BILL TO PAY. I EXPRESSED MY EXTREME DISAPPOINTMENT WITH THEIR DECISION. I THEN CALLED CONSUMER AFFAIRS AT NISSAN TO TELL THEM WHY THEY'D BE LOSING MY BUSINESS. SHE THEN CALLED ME BACK TO TELL ME THAT THERE HAD BEEN A MISUNDERSTANDING AND THAT I WAS TO COVER THE DEALERSHIP LABOR COSTS OF $353. I ACCEPTED HER OFFER. ABOUT AN HOUR LATER, I RECEIVED ANOTHER CALL FROM THAT SAME LADY'S SUPERVISOR CLAIMING THAT THE FIRST LADY MISINFORMED ME AND THAT I OWED $1500. I WAS SHOCKED AND DISGUSTED AT THE SAME TIME. I SPOKE WITH THIS "SUPERVISOR" FOR A WHILE TRYING TO REASON WITH HER, BUT IT WAS FUTILE. SHE WASN'T INTERESTED IN WHAT I WAS SAYING. I ASKED TO SPEAK WITH HER SUPERVISOR, BUT SHE INSISTED SHE WAS THE TOP DECISION MAKER. SHE SAID SHE HAD NO SUPERVISOR, SO I ASKED HER IF SHE WAS THE PRESIDENT OF THE COMPANY TO WHICH SHE REPLIED NO. BASED ON THIS INTERACTION AND LACK OF CARE FOR THE CUSTOMER. I WILL NEVER PLACE MY TRUST OR DOLLARS IN NISSAN AGAIN. I WILL ALSO TELL EVERYONE I KNOW TO STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY. *TR

I JUST PURCHASED MY TITAN A LITTLE OVER A MONTH AGO. I NOTICED ABOUT TWO WEEKS AFTER THE PURCHASE A "POP" SOUND WHEN TURNING. THIS SOUND WAS HEARD MAYBE ONCE EVERYOTHER DAY. DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY I WAS TURNING FROM A STOP SIGN WHEN THE TRUCK POPPED, THIS TIME EXTREMELY LOUD AND A SHUTTER WAS FELT. I THOUGHT SOMEONE HAD HIT ME. I THEN MADE THE NEXT TURN APROX.1/2 MILE DOWN THE ROAD TO THE GAS STATION. ONCE MORE THE TRUCK POPPED WHEN TURNING. I STOPPED AND GOT OUT TO LOOK UNDER THE REAR END TO SEE IF I COULD SPOT AND DAMAGE FROM THE AREA THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM. NOTHING WAS VISIBLE. I THEN SECURED MY SON IN THE TRUCK SO WE COULD TRY TO GO HOME. I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, IM GOING TO MAKE A CIRCLE AROUND THE PARKING LOT BEFORE GETTING OUT ON THE HIGHWAY. I PUT THE TRUCK IN GEAR AND HAD MADE IT ABOUT 20 FT WHEN I FELT AND HEARD THE REAR TIRES LOCK THEN RELEASE TWICE. I QUICKLY PARKED, POPPING 2 OR3 TIME WHILE TURNING TO MAKE THE PARKING SPACE. I THEN CALLED FOR A TOW TRUCK. AFTER WAITING 21/2HRS I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THE NEXT DAY I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP TO FOLLOW UP ON THE PROBLEMS I WAS HAVING. I WAS TOLD THAT I WAS RECEIVE A CALL BEFORE ANY REPAIRS WERE DONE. APPROX.. 3HRS LATER I RECEIVED A CALL STATING THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAD GONE OUT AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. I WAS THEN INFORMED THAT THIS WAS A OEM PART AND THAT THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY HAD TO BE PURCHASED. THE INDIVIDUAL PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE DUE TO THE TRUCK BEING NEWER. TOTAL COST FOR PARTS AND LABOR 3,700 DOLLARS PLUS TAX. THEN TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE I FOUND OUT THAT THE PARTS HAD TO BE SHIPPED IN. WITH THE WEEKEND IN THE NEAR FUTURE I WAS TOLD THAT IT COULD TAKE A WEEK TO GET THE PARTS AND HAVE TO TRUCK UP AND GOING. I AM CURRENTLY GETTING A SECOND OPINION. DID I MENTION THAT I HAVEN'T EVEN MADE THE FIRST PAYMENT ON THIS TRUCK?!! THOUGHT I WOULD BE SAFE BUYING A TRUCK WITH ONLY 68,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO I STARTED HEARING A TICKING NOISE ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN PU AT START UP. COULDN'T FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIGURE OUT WHAT IT WAS UNTIL NISSAN SENT ME AN OWNER NOTIFICATION CARD ABOUT CRACKS IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS. THEN IT DAWNED ON ME WHAT THAT TICKING NOISE WAS WHEN COLD START UP TOOK PLACE. I HAD THE VEHICLE RECENTLY IN THE SHOP FOR 2 OTHER RECALLS AND MENTIONED THIS ALONG WITH THE NOTICE I RECEIVED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FROM NISSAN. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THEY WOULD LOOK INTO IT BUT WAS CONCERNED BECAUSE I HAD 83,400 MILES ON THE TRUCK AND WARRANTY ISSUES ONLY WOULD FIX THIS UP TO 80,000 MILES. I HAVEN'T EVER HAD A EXHAUST CRACK ON ANY VEHICLE THAT I HAVE OWNED SINCE 1972 AND HAD SOME OF THESE VEHICLE TO UPWARD OF 250,000 MILES. WHY WON'T NISSAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS TO FIX THIS ISSUE BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS ALL OF THEM THAT CRACK. SEEMS TO ME FOR SAFETY ISSUES AND EXHAUST FUMES THAT SHOULD BE ROUTED TO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE ARE NOW BEING PUSHED INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND NOT EVEN GETTING TO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN NISSAN FOR THE ABSENCE OF HELP IN THIS ISSUE AND A SERIOUS ONE AT THAT. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND OF ALL THE WATCHDOG AREAS OF OUR LIFE WHERE IS THE EPA ON THIS ONE. *TR

DISCOVERED LEAK IN THE REAR AXLE SEAL. *TR

THERE WAS ALSO A FUEL ODOR INSIDE WHICH ALERTED HER TO A POTENTIAL FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE MANIFOLDS WERE CRACKED AND WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AT A LATER DATE. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER WHO OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 74,000.

FRONT DIFFERENTIAL FAILED WHILE DRIVING 30MPH AND ENGAGING ON-THE-FLY 4X4. NO 4X4 AND HAZARD TO DRIVE ON HIGHWAY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 20O5 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH AND ACCELERATING FROM A COMPLETE STOP, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. AFTER WAITING A FEW MOMENTS THE ENGINE WAS RESTARTED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON A DIFFERENT OCCASION AND THE ENGINE FAILED TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND THEY REPLACED THE RELAY SWITCH AT THE OWNER'S EXPENSE. A RECALL NOTIFICATION WAS RECEIVED TWO YEARS LATER AFTER THE REPAIR. THE RECALL WAS ASSOCIATED WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 10V517000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE CONTACT PLANNED TO NOTIFY THE MANUFACTURER TO VERIFY WHETHER THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

REAR AXLE SEAL ON MY 2005 NISSAN TITAN LEAKING DEALERSHIP SAID REAR AXLE SEAL WAS LEAKING REPLACED SEAL, BEARING AND SPACER IN JUNE 2010 THAT WAS DRIVERS SIDE REAR AXLE NOW EXPERIENCING NOISE AND DIFFERENTIAL PROBLEMS IN THE FRONT END IN FEBRUARY 2011, WHEEL BEARING AND HUB REPLACED NOISE AND VIBRATION STILL PRESENT HAD THE VEHICLE IN UNDER WARRANTY FOR CLUNKING THE FRONT END WHEN BEGINNING TO DRIVE AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES GOING THROUGH THE SELF CHECK. AXLE SEAL WENT BAD AT 52,000 MILES WAS TOLD BY DEALER I WAS LUCKY I NOTICED THE PROBLEM PRIOR TO REAR DIFFERENTIAL BURNING UP. PROBLEM NOTICED BECAUSE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND WAS PROBLEM WITH THE CONTROL VALVE ON MY FUEL SYSTEM. TRUCK WAS OUT OF WARRANTY BETWEEN THE TWO IT WAS 780 DOLLARS TO REPAIR AND NOW MY PROBLEMS ARE WORSE. AFTER NORMAL MAINTENANCE VEHICLE WAS SPILLING OUT FLUID FROM OVERFLOW TUBE. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY OVERFILLED FRONT DIFFERENTIAL AND THERE WOULD BE NOT PROBLEM. FIRST PROBLEM AT 52000 WITH REAR DIFFERENTIAL SEAL NOW FRONT IS GOING BAD.. *TR

I WAS MAKING A U TURN AND HEARD A POP FROM THE REAR END. I HAD THE TRUCK TOWED TO MY GARAGE AND WHEN THEY REMOVED THE COVER FROM THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL PIECES FELL OUT. IT HAD DESTROYED ITSELF. I'M GLAD I WASN'T DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AT THE TIME WITH MY WIFE AND TWO KIDS IN THE CAR. THINGS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORST. IF YOU GOOGLE "NISSAN TITAN REAR END FAILURE" THERE'S A 46 PAGE LONG POST ON TITANTALK.COM ABOUT TITAN REAR END FAILURES. NISSAN NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS COMMON PROBLEM.
