On 05-01-2020 I was driving back home on I-59 north and I lost the power steering, alternator and a/c. I continue driving because I still have mechanical steering control I get home and I noted the serpentine belt and the belt tensiometer was broken, I ordered and changed after repaired I was driving to work on 05-07-2020 and I notice the car is not working good, I check and 1 of the bolts from the steering pump adapter was broken, I take to the dealer and after a week and be talking with Nissan case number 40163453, with the car inside of the warranty they say the bolt is a hardware and is not cover by the warranty, also the dealer say is going to be expensive repair because they have to remove the radiator, I choose to do the repair by myself, I'm an aircraft inspector with 39 years� experience repairing airplanes. I fix in the best way I know, but this situation can cause a accident see attach pictures, also the adapter pump holes are little big of the diameter of the bolts with the vibration of the engine (diesel) can cause this bolts to be loose.

Noticed a small fluid leak under my car, it looked like radiator fluid. I took the vehicle to my local Nissan dealer to check it out. When the Nissan technicians investigated the leak they informed me the leak was from the seams of the radiator and the radiator required replacement. I was told that this is common and routine wear and tear for Nissan. The 2009 Titan has just over 41,000 miles and is only driven on paved roads. It has no off-road mileage. I do not believe a properly designed radiator should leak from the seams after 6 years and low mileage.

My 2006 Titan started vibrating like running over rumble strips on side of highway. Took straight to dealership. Was told that the cooling system split and contaminated the transmission. I had to have the transmission and radiator replaced $7313. 56. There was no warning or anything. After reading many complaints for the same thing on other Nissan vehicles, there needs to be an investigation and a recall on the cooling system that can cause this amount of damage.
Driving at night and the cabin heater wouldn't get warm. Didn't think much about it as I was driving less than 5 miles. The next morning noticed a large pool of antifreeze under the truck. Topped the coolant off, fired the truck up and let it idle in the driveway until it came up to normal to warm water temperature and antifreeze began dripping from the bottom of the radiator. Researched the radiator issue and found some Titan owners have had to replace cracked/split radiators more than once. To avoid multiple radiator replacements I will be purchasing a high performance aluminum radiator at a significant cost difference. I feel this should be a recall covered by the manufacturer. The plastic radiators may cut down the vehicles weight, making it easier to attain federal mpg standards but the all metal ones just last longer and are easily repaired. How many Titan radiators have drained their antifreeze into the street and then the storm drain? maybe the epa should be informed since; "antifreeze is toxic to humans and animals. Waste antifreeze contains heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and chromium in high enough levels to potentially make it a regulated hazardous waste, so most states strictly regulate antifreeze disposal. Antifreeze generators and state and local programs should not dump spent antifreeze on land or discharge it into a sanitary sewer, storm drain, ditch, dry well, or septic system; dumping antifreeze can cause serious water quality problems and might harm people, pets, or wildlife".
Exactly like the frequent problem with the 2005 Nissan pathfinder and xterra, the radiator failed causing coolant to mix with the transmission fluid.

I have a Nissan Titan 2006 and had to replace my fuel pump 2 times and now I have rear axle leaking and I now have 2 cracked manifolds which dealer told me is very common also I need to replace the flow for heating and cooling. I am very concerned with the exhaust leaking which could only be done by getting the truck very hot which if I did I would of had to do head gaskets. Which are ok. Also I had to replace the radiator it had 2 cracks in where it is bolted they give and became weak. I don't abuse my truck I love it I have never got it hot I maintain it as much as possible. Alot of the complaints I have read are the same a mine what does it take to get this resolved. Call me we need to band together and fix this.
