2 Battery problem of the 2004 Nissan Titan

Failure Date: 07/29/2010

My 2004 Nissan Titan caught fire and burned to the ground on 7/29/10 at 4:30pm. It all started as I was backing up and I noticed an electrical burning smell. I looked down and saw smoke and inspected it closer and noticed that the smoke was blooming from an electrical component which appeared to be the computer. I took some video of it as proof of what was going on not knowing that my truck would be engulfed in flames minutes later. The video is clear that it was manufacturer defect. I tried to stop it by disconnecting the battery but that was not successful. Later my fire inspector said it was Nissans bcm that failed! he was very happy had the video otherwise he would have never been able to identify. He said the video is really clear and apparent what happened. Nissan never recalled just sent service bulletins. My insurance may cover the remainder of the loan but that does not put me another vehicle. I have contacted Nissan on this matter and they say there is nothing they can do to let my insurance deal with it, which I explained above how that does not work for me. I feel like this is Nissans fault and they should help me but they are not. Apparently I need to hire an attorney that deals with fire and I have been informed that this is very expensive, which I can not afford. I told Nissan I had the video but they did not care. You would think after all the Toyota incidents that they may help especially since I had the video of proof and they did not . I have sent the video and all pictures I have to my insurance company as well but all they will probably get is the money they paid for loan. So my insurance company is covered but I'm left out to dry. Please read this part. The fire inspector for my insurance company and an outside independent fire inspector have concluded it was the bcm ( body control module). Nissan knew of the problem but just sent out service letters and not recalls. My insurance will be pursuing Nissan as well !.

3 Battery problem of the 2005 Nissan Titan

Failure Date: 08/01/2009

I own a 2005 Nissan Titan king cab, which I purchased it in November of 2005. After, approximately 30days of ownership and 500 miles of travel; the front brakes began to experience complications (they would shudder while braking and create an unreasonable amount of brake dust. ) I quickly return to my local dealership where I purchased it, for servicing. The Nissan dealership repaired the rotors. During the summer of 2006, I began to notice a musty odor emitting from the floor and carpeting of the passenger side. During a routine oil change and requested the mechanic to inspect the truck for the cause of the odor. They couldn't locate the source of the odor. I returned the truck to the dealership for the same problem on several other occasions, during the summer of 2007 odor reappeared; they replaced the rubber gasket around door windows in hopes of resolving the issue. Meanwhile the front brakes rotors were replaced again and the gauges (fuel, oil, tach ,voltmeter) acting erratically. The dealership repaired the brakes under my extended warranty & prorated my purchase of a new Nissan auto battery; according to service dept. This was the cause of the gauges malfunction. Then again in2008, I was told the brakes were no longer under warranty and that the musty odor was caused by water coming into the cabin via a small void in the window sealant around the "factory installed windshield upon hearing this, I chose to take my truck to another mechanic due to Nissan mechanic inability to resolve the brake issue & locate the source of the water. This year 2009, the rear end was repaired due the seals leaking on the driver's side and preventive replacement on the passenger seals. However, a few old issues along with new ones that still exist. My new mechanic told me the source of the water & odor issue is the a/c condenser leaking into the cabin, the blinking air bag indicator light was due to a harness needing replacing in the rear doors.
