Body problems of the 2006 Nissan Titan

Takata recall truck burned completely insurance company said to contact you guys for an investigation of the truck recall truck was parked in drive way then catched on fire next to building called fire department and they came and turned fire of truck was towed and the insurance company said to call u guys for damages cause its a recall on truck truck was total lost and insurance is deniing the case cause they said to contac you guys regarding the faulty truck and recall.

Traveling 20 to 25 mph, up a hill, in 4 wheel drive road conditions when there was a loud "bang". The rear of the vehicle immediately shifted to the right, striking a tree. Never would you expect a vehicle to brake in such a way as to throw you into oncoming traffic. I believe that this defect should be immediately investigated and a recall issued. Dealer service department determined that the front differential and transfer case had to be replaced due to catastrophic failure. The front axle had backed out resulting in fluid leaking out. I was told that this was a known defect that had been redesigned.

While driving, heard a bang, did not notice any damage at first. Later once the truck was parked at home seen the driver side rear leaf spring was pushed through the bed of the truck. (have pictures, if needed) the part pushed through the metal of the bed as well as the spray on bed liner. Took truck to the local garage, was afraid to drive any further than just a couple miles. The mechanic stated that he could not believe that this happened given the year of the truck. Upon further examination he recommended that the passenger side be replaced as well, before it broke also, he stated that it was very thin metal. The replacement part was purchased at the a dealer and I was told that they have had numerous incidents where this part has broken causing similar damage. Repairs to the truck will also require replacing the truck bed possible. This truck has not been taken off road nor has it been used to haul items, it has a fiberglass bed cover on it.

The contact owns a 2006 Nissan Titan. The contact stated that the paint was more gray than blue around the door jam area of the vehicle. He stated that there did not appear to be three layers of paint in that area. He took the vehicle to the dealer and they offered him a trade at the cost of $3,000. The contact declined their offer. The dealer requested that Nissan send them pictures. Once the pictures were received, the dealer was unable to find anything wrong. However, they do acknowledge the failure. The failure mileage was unknown, but the failure began within weeks of the vehicle being purchased. The current mileage was 11,000.
