39 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 02/25/2010

I have a 2006 Nissan Titan pickup that has had the rear axle seals replaced two times and had it in for a third time and was told it was residual oil from the previous repair and nsent on my awy wewll it was leaking again and now has to go back for a fourth time in about 3000 miles. The truck has only 28000 miles on it. This leak has the potential to get gear oil all over the rear disc brakes causing poor braking, also if the rear end siezed up from lack of oil it could cause you to go out of control.

40 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2009

The engine accelerates on its own after lifting the accelerator for one to five seconds. This occurs regularly and has caused two vehicle to object accidents. This occurs in traffic, slow speeds, high speeds, forward, reverse, and is easily recreated. Dealer tech could not find anything wrong that would cause this issue.

Rear axle seals leaking onto brake pads.

42 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 09/08/2009

The ipdm relay in my truck is messed up, it began with having a transmission issue that caused my truck to basically not be able to gain any speed on the highway. I took the truck to the dealership, they said it was the ipdm issue and they would try to fix it. Other Titan owners have had their trucks shut completely off while running down the highway because of the failure of the ipdm, Nissan knows of the issue has no parts to fix the issue, and will not help us out.

48 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 07/17/2008

I have a 2006 Nissan Titan 4wd. Last year, after a long trip, I took it to get an oil change, and the mechanic told me the rear axel was leaking. This was in July of 2008, and the vehicle had 48,813 miles on it. I got it fixed. Then 11 months later, again after a long trip, the same thing happened. This was in June of 2009, and the vehicle had 63,914 miles on it. I went online to see if anyone else was having this problem, and apparently it is an ongoing problem that is happening to a large number of Nissan Titan owners. Some are reporting that the oil is leaking onto the rear brakes, causing them to fail. I have not noticed this yet, but each time I caught my leak early. I have also read that the 2008 Titan has a new rear axel design that has addressed this issue. Obviously, Nissan is aware of the problem, because they have already addressed the issue in the later models. This is a very dangerous problem, and Nissan should recall the earlier models to rectify the situation.
