2008 Nissan Titan complaints

I PURCHASED MY 2008 NISSAN TITAN BRAND NEW IN 2008, SOMEWHERE AROUND 75000 MILES MY FRONT DIFFERENTIAL CAME APART, FORTUNATELY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY I PURCHASED COVERED THE $5000.00 REPLACEMENT COST THAT NISSAN WANTED TO CHARGE. HERE I AM AT 138000 MILES OUT OF WARRANTY WITH THE SAME ISSUE. NISSAN IS NO HELP AT ALL, THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN USED MAINLY ON THE HIGHWAY, WITH MINIMAL USE TO THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM. I SERVICE EVERYTHING MYSELF USING ONLY WHAT NISSAN RECOMMENDS. IM NOT IMPRESSED WITH MY $40000 BOAT ANCHOR, IT WILL BE THE LAST TIME I EVER PURCHASE A NISSAN. THIS IS THE SECOND TITAN I HAVE OWNED, DIDN'T HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH MY 2004.

TL* THE CONTACT OWN A 2008 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A ODOR OF EXHAUST FUMES COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WAS FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BE REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DETAILS OF THE REPAIRS WERE UNKNOWN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 169,237.

I HAVE HAD OVER A DOZEN INSTANCES WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES THE BREAK PEDDLE WOULD PUSH TO THE FLOOR AND YOU WOULD HEAR A LOUD NOISE AS IF THE ABS BRAKING SYSTEM WAS FAILING. YOU COULD FEEL IT IN THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT FRIGHTENS THE HECK OUT OF YOU. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO MY LOCAL PREMIER NISSAN IN METAIRIE, LA AND HAD THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT LOOK AT IT, BUT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND INFORMED THEY COULD NOT HELP. I HAVE HAD MY FAMILY IN THE TRUCK AND IT HAS HAPPENED WITH THEM AND MY 16 YEAR OLD SON HAS EXPERIENCED IT AS WELL. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND I'M AFRAID ONE DAY IT WILL FAIL AND I WILL LOOSE THE ABILITY TO STOP MY VEHICLE. AFTER EACH INCIDENT, I HAVE TO TURN THE TRUCK OFF AND RESTART IT TO STOP THE NOISE FROM COMING FROM THE ABS BREAK SYSTEM. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS THAT I HAVE TO TURN MY TRUCK OFF WHILE HAVING A GREEN LIGHT, ON THE INTERSTATE AND ANY OTHER DANGEROUS SITUATION. I WISH I COULD GET SOME CLARITY AS TO FIXING THIS BREAKING ISSUE.

I PURCHASED MY TRUCK IN 2014 FROM COUNTRY FORD. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE I HAD A TIRE SIDE WALL COME APART ON ONE OF MY BRAND NEW TIRES. I TOOK IT TO COUNTRY FORD AND THEY REFUSED TO FIX IT. SO I TOOK IT TO GOOD YEAR IN SOUTHAVEN MS WHO SAID IT WAS A MANUFACTURES DEFECT AND THEY EXPLAINED THAT TO COUNTRY FORD'S GENERAL MANAGER WHO IN RETURN FINALLY REPLACED THE TIRE. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD ALL FOUR TIRES ON THE GROUND PATCHED BY ELAINE TIRE COMPANY; TOTAL NUMBER OF PATCHES DONE WERE 5 TIMES. THE TIRE REPAIRMAN STATED THAT ROCKS HAD POKED HOLES IN THE TIRES IN THE TREAD AREA. IT WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT ALL THE TIRES ON MY TRUCK ARE PASSENGER RATED TIRES, INCLUDING THE SPARE WHICH ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR MY TRUCK, INSTEAD OF PUTTING LT TIRES ON THE TRUCK WHICH SHOULD BE MANDATORY BY ALL CAR SALES FACILITIES THEY PUT 4-PLY P-RATED TIRES ON MY TRUCK WHICH ARE DESIGNED FOR PASSENGER CARS. ALL TRUCKS SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO HAVE LT-RATED TIRES WITH A MINIMUM OF AT LEAST A 6-PLY TIRE DESIGN. THESE TIRES ALMOST CAUSED ME TO CRASH WHEN THE SIDE WALL CAME APART; AND IF DRIVING ON A GRAVEL ROAD CAN FLATTEN A TIRE THE P-RATED TIRES THAT EASILY THEN THEY SHOULD NOT BE USED AT ALL. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO GET COUNTRY FORD AND GOOD YEAR TO REPLACE THESE DANGEROUS TIRES SEVERAL TIMES WITH A PROPER LT-RATED TIRE. THEY BOTH REFUSED STATING THE TIRES SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO DO WHAT EVER I WANTED TO DO. EVIDENTLY THEY ARE WORTHLESS FOR EVERYDAY SIMPLE DRIVING, IF THE CAN BE FLATTENED WITH A

BRAKES HAVE A FADING BRAKE PEDAL, NISSAN SAYS THIS IS OK/NORMAL. I SAY THIS IS DANGEROUS. THE BRAKES WORK FINE UNLESS YOU ARE IN A PANIC SITUATION. WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE PEDAL TO MAKE A QUICK STOP IF NECESSARY ON THE HIGHWAY THE PEDAL TRAVELS 4" TO 5". YOU LOSE SECONDS IN A "NEED TO STOP NOW" SITUATION. NOT ONLY DOES THIS MAKE THE DRIVER TRY TO PUMP THE BRAKES BUT THE TRAVEL IS SO LONG AS TO EXTEND YOUR LEG COMPLETELY AND STILL NEED TO COMPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL MORE. DIDN'T REALIZE THIS PROBLEM EXISTED UNTIL THE OTHER DAY WHEN I NEEDED TO PANIC STOP. ALMOST LOST CONTROL TRYING TO COMPENSATE FOR THE PEDAL TRAVEL. ALSO WHEN BACKING MY BOAT INTO THE LAKE - CONSTANT PRESSURE MAKES THE PEDAL TRAVEL DOWN. THE BRAKES HOLD BUT I HAVE TO COMPENSATE FOR THIS "MUSHY" PEDAL. I HAVE RECENTLY REPLACED THE BRAKES, CALIPERS AND MASTER CYLINDER TO NO AVAIL. I GUESS I COULD REPLACE ALL THE BRAKE COMPONENTS BUT ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH IT WON'T HELP. AS I UNDERSTAND IT THE NEWER VEHICLES OF NISSAN (NOT JUST TITAN) HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. HOW THEY GET AWAY WITH THIS I DON'T KNOW. ITS A PROBLEM YOU WOULDN'T KNOW ABOUT UNLESS YOU'VE DRIVEN THESE VEHICLES AWHILE..I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND BEING "DEAD ENDED" BY NISSAN. I'M 63, HAVE WORKED ON CARS MY WHOLE LIFE, I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS AS NO DOUBT MANY HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED BY THIS PROBLEM. I CANT SELL THE VEHICLE TO ANYONE ELSE KNOWING THERE'S NO SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. PS - FORD, CHRYSLER AND

OVERHEAD CONSOLE PLASTIC BECOMES TOO BRITTLE TO SUPPORT WEIGHT OF CONSOLE CAUSING MOUNT POINTS TO BREAK ALLOWING CONSOLE TO SWING DOWN. MY CONSOLE NEARLY HIT ME IN SIDE OF THE HEAD. THIS CAUSE VIEW TO BE OBSTRUCTED AND COULD EASILY HIT DRIVER. UPON RESEARCHING THIS FOR REPAIR I FOUND MANY OTHER HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. MY GUESS IS AN INFERIOR BATCH OF PLASTIC IN THE 08 LINEUP. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED THE VEHICLE INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY AND TOWED AWAY FROM THE SCENE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 96,000.

THE HEAT WORKS ON AND OFF. AFTER THE TRUCK IS WARMED UP, THE HEAT WILL NOT WORK. THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY WHILE USING THE HEAT. *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT ON INDICATING AIRBAG MALFUNCTION. *TR

EXHAUST LEAK AT MANIFOLD ON BOTH SIDES OF THE ENGINE. THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT CRACK IN THE MANIFOLD THAT IS A DEFECT AND CAUSES GASES TO ESCAPE INTO ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND INTO THE CAB. *TR

HORN DOES NOT SOUND WHEN PRESSING HORN AREAS OF THE STEERING WHEEL. IT WILL CHIRP WITH KEYLESS ENTRY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE BRAKES SEIZED AND THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE BRAKES BEGAN TO MAKE LOUD NOISES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS AND THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE SPRING WAS CORRODED AND FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 41,000.

LAST WEEK, I DROVE 6 HOURS TO START VACATION WITH MY FAMILY, AUGUST 2014, WHEN I NOTICED THAT MY NISSAN TRUCK WOULD INTERMITTENTLY START TO SHAKE SLIGHTLY AND ALSO MADE A NOISE LIKE A "JAKE BRAKE" DOES ON A TRACTOR TRAILER TRUCK. THIS OCCURRED WHEN I WAS EITHER DRIVING 20 MPH UP TO 65 MPH. I ARRIVED AT MY VACATION LOCATION 6 HOURS FROM MY HOME AND TOOK MY NISSAN TITAN TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP FIRST THING THE NEXT MORNING. AFTER THE MECHANIC DIAGNOSED MY PROBLEM, THE SERVICE ADVISOR CALLED ME AND SAID MY REAR END DIFFERENTIAL WAS GOING OUT AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN, I KNEW I HAD A PROBLEM AND COULD NOT DRIVE MY TRUCK BACK HOME UNTIL THIS WAS REPAIRED. SINCE CAR DEALERSHIPS DO NOT REPAIR CAR PARTS ANYMORE THESE DAYS, THEY TOLD ME THAT THE REAR END DIFFERENTIAL WOULD COST $3,200.00 PLUS LABOR. THE TOTAL REPAIR CAME TO $3900.00. OUCH! IT TOOK THE DEALERSHIP 5 DAYS TO GET THE NEW REAR END DIFFERENTIAL DELIVERED FROM A NISSAN PARTS HOUSE IN THE NORTHEASTERN US AND REPLACED SINCE THEY DID NOT HAVE IT LOCALLY. MY ISSUE IS THIS.....I HAVE NEVER OWNED A VEHICLE THAT HAD TO HAVE THE REAR END DIFFERENTIAL REPLACED AT 79,000 MILES, NOR HAVE ANY OF MY FRIENDS HAD THIS HAPPEN TO THEM EITHER! I EVEN CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE AND THEY DID NOT OFFER ME ANY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE EITHER WHICH TELLS ME THEY DON'T REALLY STAND BY THEIR PRODUCT!!! I UNDERSTAND IF IT WERE A WATER PUMP, RADIATOR, BRAKES, TIRES, ETC. BUT NOT A MAJOR COMPONENT THAT SHOULD NOT GO BAD AT 79,000 MILES. O

THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM ON THE NISSAN TITAN IS INADEQUATE OR POORLY DESIGNED. MY TRUCK HAS HAD THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL REPLACED TWICE IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS, WITH MINIMAL USAGE OF THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM, AND UNDER APPROPRIATE CONDITIONS. GRINDING NOISES HAS BEEN FELT AND HEARD FROM THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL WHEN ENGAGING INTO 4HI, WHICH IS CAPABLE OF BEING SHIFTED ON THE FLY. WHEN ENGAGING INTO 4HI AND EXPERIENCING NOISES SUCH AS THIS WHILE ALREADY MOVING AT SPEED- 20-30MPH, IT IS RATHER UNSETTLING. TO THE AVERAGE CONSUMER WHO IS NOT A MECHANIC (WHICH I AM) THIS IS PROBABLY EVEN MORE FRIGHTENING TO EXPERIENCE. THE DIFFERENTIAL INSTALLED IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR WAS A REVISED VERSION, TO HAVE SUPPOSEDLY CORRECT ISSUES WHICH MANY TITANS HAVE FACED IN EARLIER PRODUCTION YEARS. THIS DIFFERENTIAL FAILED WITHIN 3 MONTHS. THE TRUCK WAS JUST FIXED LAST WEEK WITH ANOTHER REVISED DIFFERENTIAL, WE'LL SEE HOW LONG THIS ONE LASTS. AFTERMARKET WARRANTY AND DEALER PARTS WARRANTY HAVE COVERED ALL REPAIRS ASIDE FROM A DEDUCTIBLE, HOWEVER SOMEONE NOT WITH THIS WARRANTY WOULD HAVE FACED REPAIRS IN THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS RANGE. WITH MISS-USE I CAN UNDERSTAND PATS FAILING, HOWEVER THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. *TR

PULLING A TRAILER WHEN THE ABS & SLIP LIGHTS CAME ON, THEN THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER GETTING TO THE CAMP SITE I LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK AND FOUND THAT THE WIRING HARNESS HAD BURNED AND MELTED FUSING SEVERAL WIRES TOGETHER. THIS CAUSED ME TO HAVE NO ELECTRIC BRAKE CONTROL TO MY TRAILER. ALSO SOME FIRE DAMAGE TO THE UNDER FRAME AND OTHER PARTS OF VEHICLE...UPDATED 10/01/14 *BF

RECENTLY THE LOW RANGE SHIFT HAS STOPPED WORKING. I USE THE LOWER RANGE TO HOLD BACK THE TRAILER THAT I TOW AND I AM UNABLE TO USE IT SO I HAVE TO USE MY BRAKES WHEN GOING DOWNHILL. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED IN AUGUST 2009 WITH 16,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE ONLY PUT 30,000 MILES ON IT AND EXPECT IT TO PERFORM LONGER. *TR

I BOUGHT A NISSAN TITAN 2008 6 WEEKS AGO THAT HAD 5 BRAND NEW GOOD YEAR TITAN TIRES PUT ON AT PURCHASE; 4 ON THE TRUCK ONE ON THE SPARE. WITHIN 3 DAYS OF EACH OTHER 2 WENT FLAT. THE FIRST WAS RULED AS A FACTORY DEFECT BY THE TIRE REPAIR SHOP. THE SECOND THE SHOP WAS NOT SURE, IT HAD A HOLE IN THE TREAD AREA BUT HAD NO NAIL OR ANY OTHER CAUSE OF PUNCTURE. ANYWAY HE RECOMMENDED THAT I TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERS SHIP TO GET THE TIRES ADJUSTED AND REPLACED. THEY REFUSED TO DO SO AND NOT KNOWING THAT I USE TO WORK ON TIRES MYSELF PROCEEDED TO BLAME ME FOR THE FLATS. I INFORMED THE MAN HE WAS WRONG AND HE SAID I COULD TAKE IT TO A GOOD YEAR SERVICE CENTER FOR A SECOND OPINION; WHICH I DID. GOOD YEAR SAID THE SAME THING AS THE ORIGINAL TIRE GUY, "FACTORY DEFECT" HE ALSO STATED I HAD "P" RATED TIRES ON MY TITAN AND IN HIS OPINION I SHOULD HAVE "LT" RATED TIRES ON MY TRUCK. THESE FLATS OCCURRED WITH MY TRUCK SETTING IN THE DRIVEWAY THANK GOD. THE DEALERSHIP WAS COUNTRY FORD OF SOUTHAVEN MS. THE MAN WHO LIED TO ME AND ACCUSED ME OF BEING AT FAULT WAS NAMED [XXX]. THE GOOD YEAR MAN SAID WHEN HE SPOKE TO THEM HE WAS TOLD BY ANOTHER GUY THAT THEY WOULDN'T RESOLVED THE TIRE ISSUE BECAUSE THEY HAD 4 MONTHS OF ADJUSTMENTS THEY HAD NOT BEEN PAID FOR YET. THAT IS NOT MY PROBLEM; NOW SINCE THEY ARE THE ONES WHO PUT THE P RATED CAR TIRES ON MY TRUCK; AND NOT LT RATED TRUCK TIRES THEY HAVE PUT ME AND ANYONE ELSE RIDING WITH ME AS WELL AS ANYONE DRIVING NEAR ME IN DANGER. I HAD TWO FLATS IN 3 DAY

TL * THE CONTACTS OWNS A 2008 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE ENGINE AND AIR BAG WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE DIAGNOSIS WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 106,995. UPDATED 3/13/15*CN UPDATED 8/30/2017*CN

THERE SEEMS TO BE A PAINT DEFECT ON MY NISSAN TITAN ON THE HOOD AND ROOF. I HAVE MENTIONED IT TO THE DEALER SINCE 2009 BUT THEY DENY ANY BLAME. I NOW NOTICE THE EXACT SIMILAR PATTERN DEFECT IN MULTIPLE TITANS. THE CLEAR COAT IS WORN AWAY ALMOST DOWN TO THE METAL. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN BUT THEY SAY UNLESS THERE ARE ENOUGH COMPLAINTS THEY DO NOT HAVE TO ADDRESS IT. I REALIZE THIS IS NOT LIFE THREATENING, BUT I WANTED TO LODGE A FORMAL COMPLAINT BECAUSE IT IS A DEFECT THAT WILL AFFECT ME WHEN I GO TO TRADE IT IN AND IT IS SOMETHING THAT I NOTICE WITH MOST OTHER TITAN OWNERS OF TRUCKS THIS AGE. *TR

THE NISSAN TITAN BUTTON ON THE SHIFT LEVER THAT SHIFTS MANUALLY, AFTER MANUAL SHIFT IS TURNED ON, STOPPED WORKING. THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS PULLING A TRAILER COMING DOWN FROM THE MOUNTAINS. THIS LEFT MY TRANSMISSION IN 4TH GEAR AND WAS NOT ABLE TO USE THE COMPRESSION TO HELP SLOW ME DOWN. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE TRUCK BACK INTO NORMAL AUTOMATIC MODE AND I HAD TO RIDE MY BREAKS DOWN THE MOUNTAIN TO A FLAT AREA AND SWAP VEHICLES TO TOW THE TRAILER. AFTER THIS INCIDENT I FOUND THAT THIS ISSUE IS VERY COMMON AND IS SPECIFICALLY CAUSED BY NORMAL USE OF THE VEHICLE. MEANING USING THE SHIFT LEVER TO PULL THE TUCK OUT OF PARK AND BACK INTO PARK. THIS MOTION STARTS BREAKING THE WIRING ON THE CONTROLLER. NISSAN STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING ON RECORD OF THIS BEING A SAFETY RECALL. *TR

CLEAR COAT IS PEELING ALL OVER THE ENTIRE BODY OF VEHICLE. *TR

WE JUST TOOK OUR 2008 NISSAN TITAN INTO HAVE OIL CHANGED WE HAD JUST GOTTEN THE VEHICLE A COUPLE DAYS BEFORE AND FOUND OUT THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS WERE CRACKED WITH ONLY 66K MILES ON IT! THIS TRUCK IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO TOW PACKAGE AND NOT USED FOR HAULING OR HEAVY WORK. WE HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLES OR WE WOULDN'T HAVE BOUGHT ONE. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE ONLINE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS NOW THAT I HAVE LOOKED UP THE EXACT PROBLEM WHICH I DIDN'T KNOW EXISTED. PLEASE MAKE THIS A RECALL. I HAVE HEARD THAT "THEIR FIX" DOESN'T WORK AND WILL CRACK AGAIN. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE SENSOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER, WHO REPAIRED THE SENSOR BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61675.

I HAVE A LEAK IN MY EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND AT THIS TIME NO FUMES HAVE COME INTO CABIN YET BUT DO TO SO MANY PROBLEMS OF THIS TYPE AND WHEN YOU REPLACE THEM THE MANIFOLD ARE CRACKED AGAIN. *TR

AT ALL TIMES WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE REAR END OF MY TRUCK SHAKES FROM 55-80 MILES PER HOUR (PRETTY MUCH THE USABLE SPEED RANGE OF THE TRUCK IS NOW WORTHLESS). THE TRUCK WOBBLES SO MUCH NOW THAT IT FEELS UNSAFE TO DRIVE EVEN AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM I.E. NEW TIRES, NEW RIMS AND NEW TIRES, BALANCING, ALIGNMENTS. RESEARCH THAT I HAVE DONE HAS DETERMINED THAT THIS IS A VERY WIDE-SPREAD PROBLEM AND MANY OWNERS/OPERATORS OF THE NISSAN TITAN REFER TO THIS VIOLENT SHAKING AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" I HAVE SPOKE WITH MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND HAVE DISCOVERED THAT NISSAN OF AMERICA IS NOT INTERESTED IN ADDRESSING THIS EPIDEMIC THAT IS EFFECTING SO MANY OF THE TITANS THEY HAVE MANUFACTURED. THE PROBLEM IS LARGE ENOUGH THAT NISSAN HAS PUBLISHED A TSB WHICH INCLUDES NECESSARY PARTS THAT MUST BE PURCHASED THAT MAY ONLY ALLEVIATE THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND NOT CURE IT. I AM SAD THAT NISSAN OF AMERICA IS NOT STANDING BEHIND ITS PRODUCT TO FIX AN ISSUE THAT IS CLEARLY HAZARDOUS NOT ONLY TO THE OWNER/OPERATOR OF THE TITAN, BUT ALL THOSE THAT ARE SHARING THE ROAD WITH THESE AFFECTED VEHICLES. MY PERSONAL NOTE IS THAT MY TRUCK FEELS SO HAZARDOUS THAT I WILL NO LONGER TRANSPORT MY WIFE OR MY 3 CHILDREN IN IT AND I THINK SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE TO FIX THIS ISSUE. *TR

TOOK MY TITAN IN FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND THE SERVICE PERSON NOTICED THAT THE RIGHT AND LEFT REAR AXLE SEALS ARE LEAKING. THE SERVICE PERSON FOUND A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (NTB-10-032) FOR THIS PROBLEM AND BULLETIN SAYS TO REPLACE THE AXLE SHAFT ASSEMBLY WITH A NEWLY DESIGNED ASSEMBLY. THE LEAKING GEAR OIL CAN EASILY GET ON THE REAR BRAKES AND MAKE THEM FAIL. THIS IS TRULY A SAFETY ISSUE, NOT JUST A MINOR DEFECT. *TR

MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED I BELIEVE IN MAY 2010 FOR A FAULTY FUEL SENDING UNIT. I BROUGHT IT IN TO THE DEALER TO BE CHECKED AND ALSO REQUESTED THAT THEY CHECK THE HORN AND BACKUP ALARM WHICH WERE STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND DID NOT SEEM TO WORK AT ALL TIMES. THEY CHECKED IT OVER AND SAID THEY WOULD ORDER PARTS AND I WOULD NEED ANOTHER APPOINTMENT. WHEN I BROUGHT IT BACK THEY REPLACED A HORN RELAY BUT NOTHING ELSE. THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER THE FUEL UNIT AND WOULD CALL ME WHEN IT CAME IN. HE SAID THE BACKUP ALARM SEEMED FINE. AFTER ABOUT A MONTH I CALLED AND ASKED IF THEY HAD FORGOTTEN ABOUT ME, AND WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE SENDING UNITS COME FROM JAPAN AND ARE MADE AS ORDERED SO IT COULD TAKE A WHILE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS STRANGE SINCE UNDER THE RECALL THEY SHOULD BE STOCKING THE PART BUT I ACCEPTED HIS EXPLANATION. I MAY HAVE CALLED ONE MORE TIME TO CHECK THE STATUS BUT NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THE DEALER. THE GAUGE SEEMED TO BE WORKING SO I THOUGHT I WOULD LIVE WITH IT. IN JANUARY OF 2013 MY TRUCK RAN OUT OF GAS EVEN THOUGH THE GAUGE SHOWED I WAS OVER ONE QUARTER FULL. I NOTIFIED NISSAN OF THIS INCIDENT AND WAS CONTACTED VERY QUICKLY. THE REPRESENTATIVE I SPOKE WITH SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED AND I SHOULD TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER. I INFORMED HIM THAT I HAD MORE THAN ONCE AND THE ISSUE WAS NEVER CORRECTED SO I DID NOT FEEL I COULD GO THERE AND REQUESTED AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THE REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME IT HA

LOWER TRANSMISSION HOSE TO RADIATOR CRACKS AND RELEASES TRANSMISSION FLUID DUE TO VIBRATIONS AND BEING INADEQUATELY SUPPORTED, CAUSING SUDDEN LOSS OF TRANSMISSION. 1ST TIME IT HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WITH 45000-50000 MILES AND REQUIRED TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT, SECOND TIME AT 90000 MILES. *TR

THE WIRING HARNESS IN THE KING CAB VERSION FRAYS AND SETS OFF THE AIRBAG LIGHT. THERE IS A RECALL ON CERTAIN NISSAN TITANS, BUT THEY ARE BEFORE THIS MODEL YEAR. NISSAN OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING BECAUSE I READ ABOUT THIS ALL OVER THE INTERNET, YET NO ONE CAN GET THE HARNESS AS PART OF A RECALL BECAUSE IT DOESN'T COVER OUR MODEL YEAR. *TR

INITIAL PROBLEM WAS WHEN I STOPPED AT THE LIGHT. THEN WILE IT TURNED GREEN AND TRUCK STARTED ROLLING IT STOPPED JUST LIKE OSMEONE WOULD STEPPED HARDLY ON THE BRAKES OR HIT ME FROM BEHIND. I THOUGHT IT WAS ISOLATED INCIDENT ABOUT COUPLE DAYS LATER IT STARTED MAKING NOISE IN THE REAR SECTION. I STOPPED DRIVING THE VEHICLE. TOWED TO NISSAN SADLY WARRANTY RAN OUT 2 WEEKS PRIOR THE DELIVERY TO NISSAN, HOWEVER INCIDENT HAPPENED PRIOR THE EXPIRATION THE WARRANTY. NISSAN DEALER SAID REAR END ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REPLACED. NISSAN SAID THEY WILL NTO COVER THE COST OF REPAIR. *TR

I HAVE HAD THE DOOR LOCK CABLE ON DRIVER AND PASS DOOR THREE TIMES AND NOW ARE BROKE AGAIN. *TR

NISSAN TITAN FUEL LINE COVER MADE FROM SOY MATERIAL. RODENT AND SMALL ANIMALS ARE ATTRACTED TO THE SOY MATERIAL AND CHEW THROUGH THE LINE, CAUSING FUEL FUMES OR FUEL TO LEAK. THIS IS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. NISSAN REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR FIX THE ISSUE. AFTER CONTACTING NISSAN, NISSAN ADVISES CUSTOMERS TO REPLACE PART AND COST THEMSELVES, PART IS REPLACED WITH SAME MATERIAL CAUSING THE SAME PROBLEM. PART IS NOT JUST A FUEL LINE, IT IS A WHOLE FUEL TANK SYSTEM AS LINE IS CONNECTED TO THE TANK SYSTEM. SOME NISSAN TITAN OWNERS HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK SYSTEM MORE THAN ONCE, BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM REPEATING ITSELF. WHEN TAKING THE VEHICLE TO NISSAN DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TREATMENT, NISSAN TRAINED MECHANICS ACKNOWLEDGE ISSUE AND ADMIT IT IS AN ON GOING PROBLEM. IF THE DEALERSHIP KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE, WHY IS NISSAN CORPORATION NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR A PROBLEM THAT IS NOT A CUSTOMERS FAULT BUT AN ISSUE THAT STARTED FROM THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURE PART AT ASSEMBLY, IT IS A NISSAN PROBLEM. THIS IS NOT A VEHICLE USAGE PROBLEM, IT IS NOT A VEHICLE MAINTENANCE ISSUE, IT IS A PART/ASSEMBLY ISSUE BY THE NISSAN COMPANY. A SIMPLE ONLINE RESEARCH FOR THIS ISSUE HAS BROUGHT UP NUMEROUS FINDINGS FOR NISSAN TITAN OWNERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. VEHICLES CARRY STATIC ELECTRICITY, IT TAKES ONE SPARK OR STOPPING THE VEHICLE OVER ONE CARELESSLY DISCARDED CIGARETTE FOR ANY NISSAN TITAN TO CATCH FIRE. NISSAN SHOULD TAKE CONCERN INTO RESOLVING THIS MATTER AND PROTECT THEIR NISSAN DRIVE

WHILE DRIVING HOME THE TRUCK REVVED AND LOST POWER, I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR THE TRUCK REGAINED POWER AND I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY DRIVE THE TRUCK HOME. IT HAPPENED TWICE MORE ON THAT SAME DRIVE HOME. I TOOK IT DOWN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION. I EXPLAINED IT ONLY HAD 22,000 MILES ON IT AND IT HAS NEVER BEEN ABUSED IN ANYWAY. THERE IS NO REASON FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO BREAK. WE USE IT MAINLY FOR THE DOGS TO TRAVEL IN AND WHEN GUESS ARE IN TOWN WE HAVE AN EXTRA VEHICLE RUN TO THE STORE AND BACK. HONESTLY THE TRUCK DOES VERY LITTLE BUT SHOW OFF THE DOGS WHEN THEY GET TO GO TO THE MARKET AND BACK. WE CALL AND TALKED WITH THE NISSAN REP. WHOSE NAME IS [XXX] WHO IS OUR DISTRICT MANAGER, HE SIMPLY TOLD US THAT THE WARRANTY WAS NO LONGER IN EFFECT AND WE WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL EXPENSES. I MENTIONED THE UNFAIRNESS OF THE SITUATION, HIS RESPONSE WAS I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALER FOR ALL OF ITS MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE RECOMMENDATIONS. WHEN I MENTIONED THAT WE HAD ALL THE MAINTENANCE AND SERVICES RECOMMENDED DONE THROUGH OUR SMALL BUSINESS LOCAL MECHANIC WHO BY THE WAY HAS MORE CERTIFICATES AND EXPERIENCE THAN HIS NISSAN TEAM HE ARGUED THE FACT. I SHARED HOW WE WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT OUR LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO PAYS FOR ALL OF HIS EXPENSES ON HIS OWN TO RUN HIS BUSINESS UNLIKE THE NISSAN TEAM WHO WORK UNDER THE UMBRELLA OF THE NISSAN DEALER, [XXX] AGAIN ARGUED THE FACT. WE HAVE THREE NISSAN VEHICLES ALL OF WHICH WE

I WAS DRIVING ON A ROUGH STRETCH OF I-55 SOUTH. I THEN NOTICED THE OVERHEAD CONSOLE SLOWLY SEPARATING FROM THE FRONT. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STARTED FALLING. I COULDN'T PULL OVER AT THE TIME THIS WAS HAPPENING. I ALSO COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING FROM THE REARVIEW MIRROR. BY THE TIME I WAS ABLE TO EXIT, THE CONSOLE HAD BROKEN UP TO THE LAST COMPARTMENT. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT SO THAT I COULD TRY TO DISCONNECT THE WIRES. I STILL HAD 40 PLUS MILES TO DRIVE TO GET HOME. I WAS ABLE TO DISCONNECT THE WIRES AND PUT THE BROKEN CONSOLE ON THE SEAT. I CALLED A LOCAL NISSAN DEALER ONCE I GOT HOME. I WAS TOLD THE ONLY THING THAT I COULD DO WAS TO PURCHASE A NEW CONSOLE. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE EVERYTHING INCLUDING THE TV MONITOR WHICH IS STILL IN PLACE. *TR

RIGHT REAR WATERLOO SLIPPED AND LOST TRACTION WHILE UNDER POWER. LEFT REAR WHEEL CAUGHT TRACTION AND BLEW THE SPIDER GEAR OUT OF THE REAR-END OF THE TRUCK, RENDERING THE VEHICLE DISABLED. *TR

MAINTAINED THE VEHICLE WITH THE DEALERSHIP. EVEN PERFORMED THE TRANSMISSION FLUSH A FEW MONTHS PRIOR. WENT TO BACK THE VEHICLE INTO THE GARAGE AND THERE WAS NOT REVERSE. THE TRUCK WOULD REV THE ENGINE AND SHAKE AND AT HIGH RPM THE VEHICLE WOULD BEGIN TO SLIGHTLY REVERSE. THE NEXT MORNING I TOOK THE TRUCK INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS BLOWN. AS WAS THE MANIFOLD (THE MANIFOLD WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY, THE TRANSMISSION WAS NO LONGER COVERED). AT A LITTLE OVER 60,000 MILES AND NOT USING THE VEHICLE TO TOW WHY DID THE REVERSE (WHICH WAS THE ONLY GEAR AFFECTED) AND THE TRANSMISSION GO OUT. THIS IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT. THE HEADLIGHTS THEN FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE REAR AXLE FAILED WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH AND THE REAR AXLE WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND THEY DENIED ASSISTANCE WITH REPAIRS. THE HEADLIGHT FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 138,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE 148,000. SM.

2008 TITAN SHIFT GEAR NOT RESPONDING, WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO ENGAGE TO LOWER GEARS (1-4). STAYS ON D ONLY. THE GEAR SHIFTER BUTTON WILL NOT RESPOND WHEN THE BUTTON IS PRESSED. ACCORDING TO OTHER TITAN OWNERS IT APPEARS TO BE A WIRING HARNESS AS THEY HAVE INDICATED THE SAME PROBLEM, THE WIRE BREAKS DUE TO NOT ENOUGH SLACK IN THE WIRING HARNESS. NISSAN SERVICE CENTER STATED THAT THEY WILL NOT HONOR THE TRANSMISSION WARRANTY SINCE I HAVE 64000K MILES ON THE VEHICLE. *TR

THE IPDM OR INTELLIGENT POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE FAILED IN A VEHICLE JUST OVER THREE YEARS OLD, WITH 20,000 MILES ON IT. THIS PART WAS RECALLED IN THE 2004-2006 NISSAN TITANS. THE FAILURE OF THIS PART MEANS THAT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT START AND MUST BE TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. *TR

TAKING OFF FROM A STOP SIGN THE REAR END BROKE AND WAS UNDRIVEABLE. PUTTING IN PARK DID NOT PREVENT TRUCK FROM ROLLING AND HAD TO BE TOWED. *TT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN TITIAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL TIRE SHOP WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THERE WAS A FAILURE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE RIM WHICH CAUSED THE LIGHT TO ILLUMINATE. THE DEALER THEN REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN TITAN. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED THE CONTACT NOTICED AN EMISSION LIKE ODOR COMING THROUGH THE VENTS ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIANS STATED BOTH MANIFOLDS WERE CRACKED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 116.

REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKS, SENDING OIL OVER THE BACK PLATE OF THE BRAKES, WETTING THE BRAKE PADS & DISK, CAUSING GREATER STOPPING DISTANCES, AND REAR END ACCIDENTS, OR REAR END FAILURE,CAUSING AN ACCIDENT OR ROLL OVER. THIS IS NOT A NEW PROBLEM, SINCE THE TRUCK HAS BEEN ON THE MARKET THERE HAS BEEN SEAL PROBLEMS WITH THE AXEL AND STILL NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE,DOES IT TAKE A DEATH OF SOMEONE TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, NO JUST A RECALL AND BETTER DESIGN. *TR

THIS IS A 2-PART INCIDENT, THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED LAST FALL, 2010. DURING A SERVICE VISIT TO A REPUTABLE LOCAL AUTOMOTIVE SHOP, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT A LUG STUD ON THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL WAS MISSING. THE STUD WAS BROKEN OFF. IT WAS REPLACED AND CONSIDERED A MYSTERIOUS BUT BENIGN INCIDENT. RETURNING FROM AN 1200 MILE ROAD TRIP LAST WEEK, I TOOK MY TITAN IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE TO THE SAME AUTOMOTIVE SHOP. THEY INFORMED ME THAT 4 OF THE 6 LUG NUTS WERE MISSING. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, THEY WERE ALL BROKEN OFF ABOUT A 1/4" FROM THE AXLE WHEEL MOUNT - ON THE SAME RIGHT REAR WHEEL. THE MISSING STUDS WERE IN THE 10, 12, 2 AND 6 O'CLOCK POSITIONS - THE ONLY 2 REMAINING STUDS THAT PREVENTED A CATASTROPIC ACCIDENT INVOLVING MY SON AND ME WERE IN THE 4 AND 8 O'CLOCK POSITIONS! IT IS NOTHING SHORT OF A MIRACLE THAT WE WERE NOT INVOLVED IN A DEADLY CRASH!! ONE OF THE TWO REMAINING STUDS HOLDING THE WHEEL ON THE AXLE WAS ONE REPLACED PREVIOUSLY LAST FALL. I HAD AIRED UP THE TIRES THE NIGHT BEFORE I LEFT ON THIS TRIP AND DID NOT NOTICE ANY MISSING LUG NUTS. CLEARLY THIS WAS NOT A THEFT ATTEMPT FOR TWO REASONS: A) WHY WOULD SOMEONE WHO COULD SIMPLY UNSCREW THE LUGS NUTS INSTEAD, WITH GREAT EFFORT, TWIST THEM OFF THE WRONG DIRECTION...AND FOR WHAT PURPOSE? AND B) TWICE IN SIX MONTHS ON THE SAME WHEEL? INTERNET RESEARCH REVEALS SEVERAL OTHER INCIDENTS OF BROKEN LUG STUDS, EVERYONE SEEMING TO ATTRIBUTE IT TO AN ODD, ONE-OFF INCIDENT. IT IS MY OPTION THAT THE STUDS ARE DEFECTIVE AND A RESULT

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TPS LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER WHO ADVISED HIM THAT THE VALVE SENSOR FRACTURED AND HE WAS UNABLE TO BE DRIVE THE VEHICLE OFF OF THE LOT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 29,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ALL 4 BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS REQUIRED CHANGING ON A 2008 NISSAN TITAN AT 14,315 MI. THIS WAS DETERMINED BY TWO QUALIFIED MECHANICS. QUOTE FROM THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, "ALL BRAKE ROTORS ARE SEVERELY PITTED..." THERE WAS NO WARNING AND THIS IS UNEXPECTED AT SUCH LOW MILEAGE. IT WAS DETECTED WHEN TIRES WERE BEING ROTATED. NISSAN CLAIMED THAT THIS MAY BE NORMAL WEAR AND WOULD NOT HELP WITH FINANCIAL COMPENSATION. ROTORS ARE AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING (FOR INVESTIGATION PURPOSES) FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. *TR

2008 NISSAN TITAN HAS A LARGE KNOCK IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS AND OR HILLS WHEN DRIVING THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT. THE TRUCK WAS TAKEN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES UNTIL NISSAN FINALLY DECIDED TO POST A TSB. THE TSB STATES TO REPLACE THE FRONT SPRINGS ON 2008-2010 TITANS WITH SPRINGS FROM 2007 TITANS WHICH WILL LOWER THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK BY 1.5 INCHES. MY TRUCK IS NOW AN EYE SORE BY HAVING AN UNBALANCED RAKE WHEN LOOKING AT THE TRUCK FROM FRONT TO BACK AND STILL KNOCKS HEAVILY WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS AND OR HILLS. NISSAN ADMITS THE ISSUE IS PRESENT BUT STATE THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX. *TR
