Cylinder 4-5 which caused catastrophic engine failure. CP4 fuel pump. Crank shaft broken, Metal flakes in oil. Differential service. Was on the road from [XXX] to [XXX] and broke down in [XXX]. Just bought the truck from Lakeland Automall on May 8th and broke down on May 31st. Was in a bad spot to pull over and from what I have gathered we were lucky the Truck didn't catch fire. The problem has been confirmed by the Nissan dealership in [XXX] and also by an independent. As of yet it has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police or insurance representatives. My next call will be to my insurance company for inspection. I was hoping I would be able to fix it on my own by to no avail. No warning lamps or messages before. It started making clanking sounds, we pulled over and then that is when the engine light came on. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My crankshaft broke on the highway. I was travelling at around 70mph. No warnings were given. I lost all power and had to limp it off to the side of the road. The engine was replaced under warranty. This is an ongoing issue for 2016-2019 Nissan Titans. Folks are left with worthless vehicles because they are outside of their warranty period when it happens.

The contact owns a 2018 Nissan Titan. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 MPH over a ramp in the road, there was a loud banging sound coming from the front passenger’s side of the vehicle. Later, while depressing the brake pedal, there was a scraping sound coming from the front passenger’s side wheel, and the vehicle started jerking and vibrating and failed to properly stop the vehicle. The vehicle was eventually taken to the local Pep Boys, who determined that the front passenger’s side brake caliper bolt was missing from the brake caliper and informed the contact that the brake caliper needed to be replaced. The brake caliper was replaced, and the vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that the front passenger’s side wheel was damaged due to the failure and needed to be replaced. The dealer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The manufacturer was not contacted about the failure. The failure mileage was 127,000.

The contact owns a 2018 Nissan Titan. The contact stated that while driving at 40 MPH and accelerating, the vehicle shut off. The contact stated that there was an abnormal pop before the vehicle lost motive power and was pulled over to the shoulder of the roadway. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed with a fractured crankshaft, rod bearings, and engine failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 127,000.

The contact owns a 2018 Nissan Titan. The contact stated that while refueling, there was an engine run-on after the vehicle was turned off. The contact determined there was a vapor lock issue and that air was entering the fuel system. The vehicle was difficult to start. There was an abnormal clicking sound coming from the vehicle. There were no warning lights illuminated. Upon research, the contact determined that the failure was like TSB: NTB19-049. The contact used a scanner and determined the failure was related to the fuel pump module. The local dealer was contacted and confirmed that parts were on back order. The contact called another local dealer, Victory Nissan Parts Center (307 Thompson Ln, Nashville, TN 37211); who confirmed that parts were backordered for approximately 6 to 8 months. The failure mileage was approximately 62,000.

The vehicle has recurring starting issues. The battery frequently becomes weak or completely unable to start, sometimes without warning. The issue occurs intermittently and appears electrical in nature. The vehicle may require jump starts or fails to start after sitting or after driving. This raises concern for an electrical or charging system defect. Battery has been replaced 4 times in the past 5 years. Jumped and charged numerous times in between.

Imminent catastrophic engine failure on 2018 Nissan Titan. The engine has developed severe cylinder wall scuffing and loss of compression (150psi vs 264psi spec) on multiple cylinders. This defect can cause loss of power and potential stalling at highway speeds, presenting a safety risk. The failure matches Nissan TSB NTB19-057 (knock/scuffing). Despite a perfect maintenance history, Nissan is denying warranty coverage by claiming there was no oil change service record because the maintenance was not done at a Nissan dealership. The local Nissan dealership confirmed the issue matches the TSB and an independent inspection confirmed the defect is mechanical (piston/cylinder clearance).

Don't really know the truck was running fine doing great and then all of a sudden started acting up they run a diagnostic on it and said it was the EMC was bad and I don't understand why because everything was fine on it

I was in need of medical attention and could not move. The vehicle vehicles, SOS system was unresponsive and ineffective due to the microphone, not working while trying to communicate with the emergency services they were unable to hear me subsequently ending the call under the impression the call was made accidentally. In other cases, this malfunction could mean the difference between life or death.

Transmission failed while driving. Placing my family and others in an unsafe predicament. This seems to be a common problem with Nissan transmission. A quick search on the internet show almost all cvt models do this from this company. How is there only a partial recall on some models?

1. Turbo Actuator / Dealer is currently replacing the defective part. 2. When this part fails, you lose throttle control and acceleration capabilities. This part failed on me at highway speeds, and I had to drift over several lanes of high-speed traffic. I was unable to control the speed of my vehicle, with no ability to accelerate. 3. Not sure if they duplicated or are replacing the part solely by the check engine code of P00AH DTC (Check engine code). 4. It is a known issue with Nissan, and they have extended warranty coverage for 2016 and 2017 model year Titans with the diesel motor, but have refused to address it with the 2018 model, even with the same symptoms and DTC. 5.No, when the failure occurred, the check engine light came on, and the truck lost power. Occurred around September 25, 2025, mileage is 61,489. A claim was filed with Nissan North America under case # 55882533, and they have denied to cover the repair.

I tow full-time as a working nomad. My truck has gone into limp-mode (low-power mode) onto a complete loss of power. I have been stranded on 3 difference occasions. The issue first began at 75,000 miles which I have records of. After this most recent incident, I realized there was a pattern emerging. After further research, I have discovered that there is a lawsuit out for these CP4 fuel systems. I called Nissan and opened a case number. They processed and then stated that they will not assist me since I am not over 100k miles. My odometer is currently at 105K miles. I am not sure if it is safe to drive my truck and I need to relocate soon. What options do I have? Can anything be done about this? From what I am reading online, this is a $10,000 - $15,000 to fix, let alone the thousands of dollars I have already spent on varying part replacements. Nissan/Cummins designed this truck to work with the fuel being sold in Europe. The fuel in the US does not offer the lubrication required to function properly and it’s causing friction on metal which is sending metal shavings in through the fuel system. The fuel filters cannot handle the debris. The only warning signs I received from the vehicle was a dash warning stating low power / no power mode had been engaged as I lost power and had to roll to a stop on the side of the road. Thankfully I was able to get over to safety each time. Then, I stayed stranded on the side of the road (single female traveling alone with dogs) until I was

Erratic shifting. As an example, while attempting to pass at highway speeds, the transmission will not downshift responsively (or downshift to low gears/high rpm) leading driver to abandon the pass due to time lag, lack of confidence and power gain loss/stress. Other examples, this 7speed transmission will rev spike at low gears like it was slipping or confused, then it corrects itself. If you have cruise control enabled, the transmission seems to downshift on minor hill climbs, which is not something a normal driver would do. Overall, this transmission and TCM have had issues and recalls in the year prior to this model and in my opinion the flaws continue to exist and need a recall.

I am experiencing engine stalling. I have also experienced dome light flickers or not turning on on occasion along with radio and phone charge connection not always working, like a short of some sort. Also the mirror button allowing the driver and passenger side mirrors to open close sometimes fails as if wiring is OK sometimes and other times not There is not an exact date for the issues as they have occurred on and off since 2019 I did take the truck into Nissan 11/2023 as the radio blacked out and would not turn on. I was told the Main Harness had a shorted out wire and a jumper wire should be installed. Nissan installed a jumper wire for the radio. Occasional flickering lights, charging connections, mirror operations, and engine stalling still remained.

Truck died driving at highway speed, towed vehicle to Nissan dealership, and was quoted at or above 30 thousand dollars in repairs related the dreaded CP4 fuel pump system that has failed on the truck that only had 134,000 miles.

Engine failure. On rural highway with recreational traffic, engine started rattling, within 5 seconds the engine shut off, luckily I was able to get on the shoulder. My truck is currently at a repair facility 300 miles from my home. Waiting on information from shop and extended warranty company. No warning lights whatsoever.

My 2018 Nissan Titan has suffered two engine failures within two years, with fewer than 37,000 miles on the vehicle. Despite following all scheduled preventive maintenance, the engines failed catastrophically. One of these failures occurred with my family in the vehicle, placing their safety at serious risk. Details: The first engine failure happened at approximately [30,000], and the second at around [37,000], both requiring full engine replacements. These were not minor issues — they were sudden, complete losses of engine power. The second failure was especially dangerous, occurring while driving with my family onboard. Despite clear signs of a major defect or systemic issue, Nissan has refused to take responsibility, treating these catastrophic events as if they are routine, isolated failures. I followed all required maintenance schedules, and the vehicle was well cared for. Nissan’s lack of accountability is unacceptable and deeply disappointing. Based on this experience and their failure to stand behind their product, I will not purchase another Nissan vehicle and cannot recommend the brand to others. I am submitting this report to urge the NHTSA to investigate this issue as a potential safety and manufacturing defect that could affect more owners and put more families at risk.

I CANNOT MAKE CALLS ON MY HANDS FREE BECUSE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TCU. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY WANT THOUSANDS TO FIX IT. I CANNOT USE MY HANDS FREE IN MY TRUCK, I CAN HEAR THE VOICE OF OTHERS BUT THEY CANNOT HEAR ME. ITS A HUGE DISTRACTION WHEN MAKING AND RECEIVING CALLS. THIS TCU IS CAUSING THE MIC NOT TO WORK. NISSAN HAS A TECHNICAL BULLETIN ON THIS. IT IS UNDER CLASSIFICATION: EL18-006 AND REFERENCE: NTB18-023=NISSAN; MICROPHONE DOES NOT WORK
