I have a defective exhaust manifold that’s letting gases in the cab.
The rear differential and axle has an inevitable failure with no warning lights or much anything else besides some possible noises! the vent designs are terrible it causes overheating and internal turmoil over time seals start leaking, bearings and internal gears get weak from over hot /cold repeated cycles allowing moisture to build and accumulate in the 3rd member where it’s supposed to be completely sealed and dry other then gear oil to lube and maintain proper function. My personal and current experience is I’m without my truck, missing work and very . Very thankful that it didn’t lock up on the highway/freeway that I drive too and from work about 85 miles daily! the best part is there’s no fast cost efficient resolution! the differential open carrier with spider gears held in place by a shaft pin and tiny 8 mm bolt that broke causing the pin to slide back and forth (pinball effect) into the ring /pinion, side gears, spider gears untill it either gets jammed in the gears and instantly locks up or slowly fractures away untill gears held by nothing, collide causing catastrophic failure! I happened to notice the inside of rear wheel wet because when I was exiting the highway I heard a faint sound almost like a bolt or rock or something hit underneath the truck so I took a glance at everything and noticed that wheel grease soaked and a little fluid on the bottom of transfer case. . Long story short I drove it approximately 1 mile to a shop there it still sits needing complete different axle and differential or a whole new carrier and all bearings/seals spacers possibly axle shaft don’t know yet and dealership can not get any parts for it!! the parts are obsolete! none! don’t sell them, don’t make them…. . They recommend and can only replace whole unit around 3-5k thousands of dollars I wish I had!! all of the research I’ve done tells me this is a huge problem! theres hundreds of thousands of people that this has happened too! asking why isn’t there a recall??!.
Replace passanger side axle seal at 94000 miles. Now I have a driver side axle seal leak at 105000 miles. Seems to be a problem after looking around on the internet.
On two separate occasions the left and right back axel seal started leaking oil on to the back brakes and wheels. The seals and back breaks had to be replaced booth times would not pass state inspection because oil soaked break pads breaks had reduced stopping power.
I recently bought a 2007 Nissan Titan and I love the truck. I was driving along and I started smelling brakes burning, I pulled over and my rear passenger wheel was smoking. I looked on the back side and rear end dope was on the back of my wheel. The wheel seal has went out. Come to find out looks like the rear diffrential has been sealed up before. So, its a problem with the Nissan Titan rear end seals and diffrential seal. It creates a safety hazard getting on the brakes. The wheel could catch on fire.
This is now my 5th replacement axle seal and or bearing, I cant believe Nissan hasn't been made to correct this ongoing issue, yes they replaced the first one but it has been mine to replace ever since.
Rear axle seals leaking all over break shoes (could cause fire) failed seals groved out axles. Need to replace seals and axles.
Rear axle seals leaking causing lubricants to cause the rear brakes to fail.
Was driving down the road at 50mph went to slow down and there where no brakes so finally I pulled I've and looked around and oil was dripping out of the axle housing almost a bad situation. Come to find out on the Nissan Titan talk forum there are many many more of these like mine this should defiantly be a recalled item very dangerous.
My passenger side rear axle seal is leaking. From what I have read, this is an extremely big problem on Nissan Titan's. The leak is affecting the following parts: - passenger side rear brake components - passenger side rear tire (sidewall) - entire rear axle assembly.
Rear axle seal leaked on drivers side at 66,000 miles. Gear oil all over brakes which is a major safety concern. No modifications - truck is full stock. Nissan dealer database reveals this issue happened also at 29,000 miles and entire rfd was replaced under warranty for previous owner. Now happens again at 66,000 miles. I am told there is a TSB for this issue, but since vehicle is out of warranty(6,000 miles ago) that this is my problem. Dealer told me that this problem could very well have been going on without my notice for longer than 6,000 miles. A little research reveals this to be a very common problem with these trucks. Nissan needs to acknowledge that they have a faulty design in the rfd, and they need to step up and issue a recall for this issue due to it being a major safety concern!.
Wheel seals leaked and got onto brake pads and two axel seals had to be changed to make truck safe.
At around 60,000 miles both my rear seals and pinion seal blew due to a bad air valve or inferer seals, causeing the rear brakes to prematurly fail, due to the oil that had been spilling on to them, this should not have accured on a vehicle with minamal miles and no towing or hauling . . .
Rear axle seal like on 2007 Nissan Titan.
Prematurely failing inner rear axle seals causing gear oil from diff to get into rear brake calipers and rotor causing increased braking distance. Been replaced once on left and twice on right.
With the service brake applied, the transmission is shifted into neutral and the parking brake is fully applied. When the service brake is released, the vehicle rolls backward when parked on a slope, even with the parking brake fully applied.
The rear axle seals leaked all over my rear brakes on my truck. Rear axle seals, bearings all had to be replaced.
Axel seals started leaking in 2010,the truck was taken to the dealership for repair cost was approximately 1000 dollars may of 2012 was told axel seals where leaking again and they have not been fixed.
Right rear axle seal failure. Second failure within a 90 day period. Seal replaced by dealer again. These seal failures pose a very real safety hazard if the lubricant reaches the brakes. They will fail!.
2007 Nissan Titan rear axle seals leaking onto rear discs causing vehicle to inadequately brake.
Right rear axle seal failure. Dealer replaced the axle seal. Right rear axle seal failed again 1/18/2010. Dealer replaced the axle seal again. These failures pose a quite real safety hazard as if the lubricant leaks into the brakes they would fail!.
I have had both rear axle seals replaced on my Nissan Titan, they almost didn't cover the driver side because I was 300 miles over my warranty. I just felt since this has happened to both sides, what will keep it from happening again? I want to make sure Nissan recognizes this problem and it is in need of a recall to fix it. The worse part is that it leaks axles grease onto the rear brakes causing them not to work.
One rear axle already leaked and we had to repair it. Now the other rear seal is leaking and we have to replace it. Also the shocks are bad.
