This will be the 3rd rear differential on this truck. The first blew on warranty at approx 10k miles. Now with 56k miles the 2nd dana rear axle has blown. I don't off road and tow only a motorcycle trailer. This is obscene, time consuming and very costly ($3,630. 00) to fix and days waiting away from home. This isn't right.

Catastrophic failure of the leaf spring on driver side rear of the vehicle.

2004 Nissan Titan; rear axle seal leaking: 1. In shop for tire rotation, mechanic saw fluid from rear axle on inside of my wheels. 2. Not sure how longs its been leaking. Appears to be an on going problem for other Nissan Titan owners (multiple seal replacements). Consequences are fluid can leak onto brakes causing a braking failure which could result in a crash and possible death. 3. Nothing done to correct the problem. Contacting mechanic today. *Nissan needs a recall on this*.

Only 65,000 miles on my truck and no modifications. Right rear seal leaking, pinion seal is shot and front left axle needs to be replaced. Nothing covered under warranty.

This was able to be replaced under warranty.

Numerous problems have arisen with my leased 2004 Nissan Titan king cab. Including serious vibration problems that occurred upon braking to the point the vehicle was parked until the dealer finally agreed to at least 'turn' the rotors. Eventually brakes were replaced by dealer 6 months after the initial problem. Currently facing problems including a noise at startup that everyone can hear except the dealer mechanics, an overflow problem with gas tank even though just a few liters have been put in an empty tank. Additionally major problems with driver side door refusing to open from both the inside and outside. Dealer has realigned door numerous times but problem continues. Dealer states the door problem is due to a poor design with a heavy door on inadequate hinges. Occasionally have had to drive while holding door closed. Extremely dangerous considering weight of door. This truck is barely one year old and problems just keep piling up with little dealer support offered.
Vehicle vibrates at particular speeds. Dealership has replaced tires, replaced rims and tires, vehicle continues to vibrate at very noticeable levels. The dealership has called Nissan tech line, but nothing has been done to correct this problem to date.
Once the vehicle hits 60 mph the steering wheel shakes uncontrollably. Vehicle has been taken to the dealer on 4 occasions. Manufacturer stated take it back to the dealer.
