2 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 12/07/2018

The rear axle seals on my 2007 Nissan Titan continue to leak gear oil. I have replaced the seals three times including purchasing and replacing the entire axle shaft, seal and spacer assembly on the third time. These were 2 axle shaft assemblies which cost me over $1000. I have also installed a breather tube on the rear axle and insured it is allowing air to get in and vent the rear axle. It's been a few months after installation and the seals are leaking again. My rear brakes and parking brake are soaked with oil and the parking brake no longer holds the truck in place when parked on a incline/decline.

3 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 03/25/2015

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.

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.

5 Service Brakes problem

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 differential is leaking oil on passenger and driver sides. The oil leak has the potential to deteriorate my brakes and cause an accident.

7 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 10/27/2010

2007 Nissan Titan needed all 4 rotors and brakes replaced at 20k miles. Not covered under warranty due to age. On occasion, would feel slight wobble during braking from highway speeds, but nothing too bad. Then one day last week the front right brake started producing a horrible metal on metal sound, even when not braking. In my opinion there is absolutely no way that a truck with 20k light use miles should need to have all four rotors replaced.

8 Service Brakes problem

The Nissan Titan 2007 has a front end brake problem . They wear out to the point that when you press the brake the front brakes chatter and it feel like you are going over rumble strips. They have been replaced by Nissan three times in 32000 miles . They tried to charge us all three times but after threatening to call a tv station they relented and replaced them. A mechanic who felt sorry for us said this was a massive problem and Nissan has not issued any orders to dealers. He indicated that the entire brake set up are to small for the very large Titan truck. A look on the internet under complaints will bear out the size of the problem. Help help help!.

13 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 02/10/2007

Hi, I'm writing to you because since day one in 2007 when I bought my 2007 Nissan Titan I have nothing but problems with it , first my front end of my truck kept on shaking every time the brakes where applied and I had told pine belt Nissan the place I got the truck , that I been having these problems but yet these people still don't wanna bother with me at all , this truck is way to safe to even bother driving it anymore and I refused to pay all this money for a truck that I have got with less then 7,000 miles on it. I had bought all the extended warranties for this truck and it didn't do me any good because every time I have a problem or question about something they are always looking to charge me for something I feel should be covered by my warranty. Next problem was my headlights kept blowing out and yet they still couldn't do anything for me besides make me pay for new light bulbs over 3 times , I also had to buy wire hardness for my headlights because they said the lights got to hot and melted the wires? I don't even understand how any of this is my fault. Next problem is I have told them that my front wheels seem to be shaking when ever im making a turn, next I noticed that my tires are starting to ware on evenly and these tires are pretty much new ??? now I get two recalls in the mail, one for my fuel gauge and the other for the lower control links ?? what's next ed . This truck is really a nightmare, I bought this truck because I thought it was newer and safe to go anywhere, wrong I don't even wanna drive this thing around the block not alone being forced to use this truck to get to and from work because this is my only car and I am not made out of money that's the reason why I bought a newer truck just so I didn't have any problems like these. I guess I was wrong. Thanks a lot for your time and any help you could give me , I just don't know where or who else to go to . I just want my truck in 100% working condition like I was promised.
