2017 NISSAN TITAN Complaints

WHEN I'M CRUISING THE RPM FLUTTERS AND THE TRUCK SEEMS TO BE CONFUSED AS TO WHAT GEAR IT SHOULD BE ON. ACCELERATION SOMETIMES IS HESISTANT AND DELAYED. THE GAS PEDAL NEEDS TO BE ALMOST FULL DEPRESSED FOR THE TRUCK TO ACCELERATE. THE FRONT BUMPER IS CROOKED. I CHECKED FOR ANY GIVE ON THE STRUCTURE BUT THERE WERE NONE. THERE WAS NO COLLISION INVOLVED.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. HAD CODE CHECKED AT CLOSEST AUTO PARTS STORE, IT WAS AN EVAP CODE. LIGHT WENT OUT, BUT TOOK IT TO DEALER TO BE CHECKED. NOTHING COULD BE DONE BECAUSE LIGHT WAS OFF. OTHER SENSOR LIGHTS CAME ON..PARKING AND FUEL CAP, TOOK BACK TO DEALER, GAS CAP AND O RING CHANGED. DEALER SAID NOT TO WORRY IF LIGHTS AND SENSOR WARNINGS CAME ON, THAT TRUCK WAS SAFE TO DRIVE, AND IT WAS SUGGESTED I TAKE PICTURES EACH TIME ONE CAME ON. A COUPLE DAYS LATER THE ENGINE LIGHT AND SENSOR WARNINGS KEPT COMING ON. TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER, SAID IT WAS A WIRING HARNESS FROM ENGINE TO DRIVER'S DOOR. 2-3 WEEKS LATER WAS TOLD THE WIRING HARNESS WAS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER, WHICH TELLS ME A LOT OF TITANS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND THERE HAVE BEEN NO RECALLS. THE VEHICLE WAS SOMETIMES STATIONARY AND SOMETIMES GOING DOWN THE ROAD OR HIGHWAY..NO RHYME OR REASON FOR TIMING OF ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH DOWN A HILL, THE LOW PRESSURE FUEL SENSOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE TO TONY NISSAN (04-1299 KA UKA BLVD, WAIPAHU, HI 96797). THE DEALER STATED THAT DUE TO THE LOCATION OF THE FUEL PUMP SENSOR, IF THERE WAS LESS THAN A QUARTER OF A TANK OF DIESEL FUEL, THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000. *LN*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING ABOVE 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED VIOLENTLY AND BECAME DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. ALSO, THE RPMS REDUCED TO APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH BEFORE THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO OPERATE NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANCIRA NISSAN (LOCATED AT 10835 I-10 W, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78230, 210-526-2682) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL INJECTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED THREE TIMES; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED AFTER EACH REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000.

ENGINE FAN CLUTCH MAKES EXCESSIVE ENGINE NOISE. SOUNDS LIKE A JET ENGINE. DEALER CLAIMS IT IS AS DESIGNED, HOWEVER, IT IS EXCESSIVELY LOUD, AND CAUSES EXTREME DROPE IN OVERALL FUEL ECONOMY. THIS IS A KNOWN FAILURE THAT THE SELLING DEALER REFUSES TO FIX.

FUEL TANK WHISTLES WHILE FILLING. ALSO, THIS CAUSES FUEL TO STOP FILLING. AND, AT TIMES, IT CAUSES FUEL TO SPILL ONTO SIDE OF TRUCK AND GROUND THIS COULD LEAD TO A FIRE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, AT DIFFERENT FUELING LOCATIONS.

3 TIMES TO DEALERSHIP TO COMPLAIN ABOUT TRANSMISSION SHIFTING ISSUES. 1ST TIME THEY HAD A NEW TRANSMISSION PROGRAM UPDATE TO INSTALL. I NOTICED NO DIFFERENCE. 2ND AND 3RD TIME TO DEALER TO INFORM THEM THAT TRANSMISSION DOESN'T KNOW WHICH GEAR TO BE IN AT CITY SPEEDS OF 20-40 MPH. ALSO WHEN FULL THROTTLE DESIRED ENGINE SPEED DOESN'T INCREASE FOR 2-3 SECONDS . . ALSO ON SLOWING DOWN COASTING FOR STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN TRANSMISSION CLUNKS AS IT DOWNSHIFTS INTO EITHER 1ST OR 2ND. . ALL THIS IN NORMAL TRANSMISSION MODE. TOW MODE APPEARS TO BE NO ISSUES. NISSAN DEALER MECHANIC CANNOT DUPLICATE. ON MY DRIVE WITH MECHANIC I HEARD IT CLUNK DURING DRIVE AND MECHANIC DIDNT. AS USUAL NO HELP. I REQUESTED THE TRANSMISSION BE RESET TO RELEARN MY DRIVING TO CHANGE SHIFT PATTERNS AND WAS TOLD THEY DIDNT HAVE THAT CAPABILITY. CUMMINS 5.0 DIESEL WITH AISIN TRANSMISSION

THE DRIVER SEAT HAS BECOME SEPARATED FROM THE SEAT FRAME IN ONLY 2 YEARS. THE SAME THING APPEARS TO BE STARTING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AS WELL. THE CONCERN IS THE POTENTIAL FOR SERIOUS OR FATAL INJURY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT OR EVEN A SUDDEN STOP. SEAT SEEMS TO HAVE COME LOOSE AND PUSHED SEAT CUSHION TOWARDS THE CONSOLE. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN DURING ANY TYPE OF ACCIDENT AND APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT NISSAN IS AWARE OF AND SHOULD ADDRESSED BEFORE SOME IS HURT OR FATALLY INJURED.

WHEN THE TRUCK IS IN DRIVE AND STOP AT STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT, THE IDLE RPM DROPS LOW 6 OUT OF 10 TIMES. THE LOWEST I EXPERIENCED WAS ~300 RPM AND THE TRUCK SHAKES. THERE WERE TIMES IT DROPPED TO ~400 RPM, THE TRUCK DID NOT SHAKE. THING IS, IT ONLY DROPS FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS AND GO BACK UP TO 625-675 RANGE. THEN I TAKE OFF, TRUCK DRIVES NORMAL. NOTE THAT AC IS ON WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IF NOT HEAVY ON BRAKES IT WILL PULL THROUGH THEM AT A COMPLETE STOP.

WHEN THE AC IS ENGAGED ON THE VEHICLE AND I ATTEMPT TO SLOW TO A STOP. OCCASIONALLY IT WILL SURGE IN POWER PRIOR TO STOPPING, RESULTING IN A SURGE OF DISTANCE OCCASIONALLY STRONG ENOUGH TO PUSH THROUGH THE AMOUNT OF APPLIED BRAKING. CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CROSS INTO CROSSWALKS OR TRAFFIC. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES.
