Back in may of 2011 I was driving my Nissan Titan truck down the highway with my two girls 6 & 7 year old when I heard the truck making a noise out of the rear . I slow down and immediately pulled over to the side of road not knowing what had happened. I drove the vehicle back to my home and called the dealership. When I took my 2005 Nissan Titan to the dealership in vineland new jersey they stated that the problem with my truck was the rear and needed to be replaced. They stated that the repair cost for the whole rear was $3,800 in order for it to be repaired. They stated that my truck was out of warranty by 2 months even though I only had 38,836 miles on it. I asked why couldn't the pumpkin in the rear be fixed and Nissan stated they do not just fix the pumpkin. They would have to replace the whole rear in the truck costing me $3,800. 00. I cailed eaton and spoke to ryan divine. Eaton rep stated that he has never heard of this problem, part (tt913a582) eaton posi. Ryan stated to me that they make this rear for Nissan. Ryan stated that Nissan engineers, engineer part and they only make it for them. I took the vehicle to a local shop to be repaired which stated that the repairs would cost me $1,358. 90. The auto repair center that I took my Nissan titian to, stated that there was many many many complaints about the rears in the Nissan Titans starting from 2005 to 2010. It was actually being reported online search. As I looked online I could see many complaints about the Nissan Titan rears with the same problem. So my question to the government supervisor paid by taxpayers, does it take 30 people to die in order to fix the problem and blame it on Nissan just like you did to gm. Fix the problem. So go online and read. Take matters seriously!! I extricate people out of vehicles for a living when they are in car accidents dead or alive. Thank you t. S.

I took vehicle to deal for unrelated issue and dealer notified me of a power steering hose leak at the joint, (2007 Nissan Titan)
dealer stated it needed changed and would cost approx. $400. 00. This system is sealed, non wearable item with obvious manufacturing defect. Nissan is not being responible for their product/design quality. On-line search revealed mulitple complaints for this issue. Please investigate the manufacturing/design of the power steering system for leaks. A failure of the system could result in serious injury or death.

2005 Nissan Titan crew cab 4x4 with off-road package, within 10,000 miles there were loose bolts on the transfer case. At 38,500 miles the left front differential seal failed and leaked. At 39,800 miles the power steering hose went bad and leaked. At 51,000 miles the circular clip on the axle at front left differential deformed causing axle to begin to fall out of vehicle!!! thankfully all has been covered under our extended warranty, and dealerships have replaced parts, but when it runs out these will come from our pocket, and no one can guarantee the new parts are not just replacements or any better. This could have resulted in death or injury to us or someone else had that axle fell from vehicle, and could occur again.
I own a 2007 Nissan Titan. When I drive the vehicle, the steering wheel feels like it is slipping. It doesn't feel stable even when I am going straight. I'm sure its not the alignment but has to do with the suspension. I have had problems with the steering controls before because last spring during the raining season my vehicle slipped out of control when I was driving straight with the 4 wheel drive on going about 40 mph on the 15 freeway. I felt during that time it was the rain that caused me to slip but after that incident it has gradually gotten worse. I have ask Nissan to take a look but they wanted to charge me $130 just for an inspection. My vehicle has not been in any accidents nor any repair was done to the vehicle since I have purchased it. I feel that this is a very big safety issue and that it endangers the life of my family and also the public.
The contact owns a 2005 Nissan Titan. The contact stated that while driving 15 mph, he noticed that the front end of the vehicle would move from the left then to the right side when shifted into 4-wheel drive . On a separate occasion, while traveling at speeds of 2 mph in the reverse position, the contact heard an unusually loud popping noise. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where the contact was informed that the emergency brake pads had separated and the front pinion bearing needed to be replaced. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the contact was awaiting repairs. The failure mileage was 73,000 and the current mileage was 83,000.
I have a 2004 Nissan Titan and have had it for about 4 years. There is 51000 miles on it and around 22,000 miles I put a lift on it. Everything was fine with the truck until I got around the 35,000 mile range. When I would drive the truck I would notice loud noises coming from the front end. I took it to my Nissan dealership 2 or 3 times and they said that everything was fine and that it was just my suspension that was making the noise. Now it has been about 15,000 miles later and I noticed a leak coming from around the front axle so I took it back and they told me that my front differential needed to be replaced. They told me that it would cost $2300 to fix it. They also told me that they see this problem alot with Nissan Titans. When I got home I did a little research and found close to 100 people that had the same problem. I feel that Nissan should be the one to take care of the problem.

Turning steering wheel. Steering rack pulled apart. Total loss of power assisted steering and complete steering fluid loss. When fluid loss occurred it sprayed all the fluid to the left saturating inside brake pad and rotor. No action taken yet just occured. Part still on truck.
Steering gear shifter is stuck on "d" drive and does not shift to lower gears. I bout the truck at the end of 2006 brand new. About two years later the shifter did not work anymore. I was told that they would have to replace the whole shifter part which is very expensive to fix. Thanks.

1. I own a 2006 Nissan Titan crew cab se. After normal driving of the vehicle for 2 years and 2 months the vehicle requires an alignment. The vehicle has no way to adjust the camber. There was no camber kit installed on the vehicle from the factory. Every manufacturer knows that part of proper maintenance is realigning the vehicle. 2. I have searched the internet to find out if other Titan owners have had this problem and I have found numerous blogs of 2006 Nissan Titans having the same problem. This is the only year I have found that Nissan failed to provide the ability to align the vehicle. 3. Nissan has done nothing to correct this problem. When Nissan is contacted they inform me that there is nothing they can do since my vehicle is out of warranty since I have exceeded the 36,000 miles. I am told that I have to purchase a camber kit from Nissan in order to align the vehicle.
Multiple brake and steering shudder problems with 2004 Titan Nissan se crew cab truck, dealer makes mfg suggested repairs but shudder returns creating safety worries and fear of losing control of vehicle. Moreover, transmission coolant line replaced wherein dealer informs me that blowout could lead to failure. Front tires excessive wear, vibration and shudder with or without brake application. Headlight switch design flawed, easily turned off when turn stalk activated or lights are dimmed from high to low beam. All the above problems occured and still are occuring within first 3500 miles!!.
My wife and I were test driving a new Nissan 2004 Titan 4 door pick up at Nissan of statesville, nc. We both drove the vehicle and noticed what we considered an excessive amount of play in the stering wheel. The salesperson, who was riding in the back seat, said that was normal. Upon making the final turn from us highway 70 into the dealers lot a pop was heard and all loss of stering ocurred. The stearing wheel was free wheeling with no directional control whatsoever. In other words, you could spin it aroun like a top, with no stops. The vehicle was was brought to a stop without any damage. Should this occur with any speed, death could easily be the result. Hopefully this was a once only occurance with Nissan trucks. We are still shaken by this event. The next page on this form requires me state that an event ocurred after purchasing the vehicle. We of course did not purchase the vehicle. Thank you.
