2004 NISSAN TITAN Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT EXHAUST FUMES WERE ENTERING THE INTERIOR CABIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO STATED THAT THE MANIFOLD WAS CRACKED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS TRUCK. I HAVE DRIVEN IT APPROXIMATELY 1300 MILES SINCE I PURCHASED IT. THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT AXLE CLIP HAS BROKEN TWICE IN 300 MILES. I UNDERSTAND THIS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH 100'S OF OWNERS BUT THERE HAVE BEEN NO RECALLS. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ALL OF THE DOOR LOCKS WOULD BECOME INOPERABLE IN EXTREMELY COLD TEMPERATURES. IN ADDITION, THE DOORS COULD NOT BE OPENED. THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO OPEN THE WINDOWS AND OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE EXTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO CLOSE THE DOOR, THE DOOR WOULD NOT LATCH SECURELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LATCHES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE SLIP, VDC AND BRAKE LIGHTS ALL ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH. I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES AND THE BRAKES WENT ALMOST TO THE FLOOR. THE TRUCK EVENTUALLY DID STOP BUT I CAME CLOSE TO HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE READ AND RESEARCHED THOROUGHLY ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE. THERE IS CURRENTLY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN CALIFORNIA REGARDING THIS ISSUE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME APPROXIMATELY 4 TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR WHERE I HAVE ALMOST COMPLETELY LOST MY BRAKES. NISSAN NEEDS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM MAY BE A DELTA STROKE SENSOR THAT IS HOUSED WITHIN THE BRAKE BOOSTER. I HAVE NOT REPLACE THIS YET AS I AM NOT SURE IF THIS WILL FIX THE PROBLEM AND IT IS QUITE EXPENSIVE. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE OUT THERE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILED. THE CONTACT SHIFTED THE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL AND THE VEHICLE ROLLED AWAY IN REVERSE AND INTO THE STREET. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN SHIFTED INTO 4X4 MODE IN ORDER FOR THE CONTACT TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAD FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE WAS 83,200.

THE BRAKE ON MY 04 NISSAN TITAN WOULD QUIT WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. THE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND IT PULSATED AND SEEMED TO HAVE NO BRAKE. ALL THE SERVICE LIGHTS WENT ON. I HAVE NO CONTROL OF THE BRAKE AT ALL. VERY SCARY FEELING. I HAD TO PULL OVER THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT DOWN THE ENGINE AND RESTARTED AND THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. IT HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW IN 04 AND STILL HAVE IT NOW 2013. IT HAPPENS ABOUT 5-7 TIMES EVERY YEAR. NISSAN NEEDS TO OWN UP TO IT AND REPAIR THE PROBLEM. THERE ARE A LOT OF DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THE DELTA STROKE SENSOR. THEY NEED TO FIX THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GOT KILLED AND THEN THEY WILL HAVE A BIG LAWSUIT IN THEIR HANDS. *TR

I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT NHTSA IS FINALLY DOING SOMETHING ABOUT NISSAN TITAN BRAKE PROBLEMS. I OWN A 2004 NISSAN TITAN WITH BRAKE PROBLEMS. I HAVE EXPERIENCED NO BRAKES AT ALL WHEN THE TRAFFIC SUDDENLY STOPS IN FRONT OF YOU. I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THESE BRAKES TO THE NHTSA, NISSAN, ETC, TO NO AVAIL. THE PROBLEM IS VERY INTERMITTENT AND YOU CANNOT SIMPLY TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND SHOW THEM THE PROBLEM. IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. WHEN THE BRAKES FAIL TO WORK, YOU PULL OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURN THE TRUCK 'S IGNITION OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN. THE BRAKES ARE THEN RE-SET AND WORKING FINE. MY SON DISCOVERED THIS TEMPORARY FIX SOLUTION. IT IS A SERIOUS, REAL PROBLEM FOR NISSAN TITAN AND ARMADA OWNER'S. IT HAPPENS TO OUR TITAN TWO OR THREE TIMES A YEAR. MANY OWNER'S COMPLAIN OF THE SAME TROUBLE ONLINE. I'D LOVE TO HEAR THAT NISSAN TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL THESE VEHICLES AND SOLVES THIS PROBLEM FOR THEIR LOYAL OWNERS. *TR
