AT 55000 MILES THE REAR AXLE SEAL ON MY 2006 NISSAN TITAN BEGAN TO LEAK CAUSING REAR BRAKE FAILURE. NEW AXLE SEALS FIXED THE PROBLEM. *TR

DRIVING DOWN A DIRT ROAD AND MY SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND I DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING. *TR

TIRE SIDEWALL SEPARATION. ON 4/25/2009, I PURCHASED 4 NEW TOYO OPEN COUNTRY H/T, P265/70R18 TRUCK TIRES FOR MY 2006 NISSAN TITAN PICKUP TRUCK. ON SUNDAY, 5/3/2010, I NOTICED THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE HAD A SMALL CHUNK OF THE BLACK OUTSIDE SIDEWALL MISSING. UPON INSPECTION, I COULD NOT FIND WHERE ANY TYPE OF DEBRIS HAD HIT THE TIRE, NOR COULD I FIND WHERE ANY OF THE OTHER TIRES HAD BEEN DAMAGED. THE FOLLOWING DAY, I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THEM INSPECT THE DAMAGE. AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE, THE TOTAL VEHICLE MILEAGE WAS 30,586. AS OF THIS DATE, THE MILEAGE IS 40,845. A TOTAL OF 10,259 MILES HAVE BEEN DRIVEN SINCE THE TIRES WERE PURCHASED. AS THE TIRES CAME WITH A 60K MILE DAMAGE WARRANTY, I WAS EXPECTING TO HAVE THE TIRE REPLACED AND TO PAY ANY MILEAGE ADJUSTMENT FEE. THE DEALER INSTEAD INFORMED ME THAT, BECAUSE OF THE TYPE OF DAMAGE, THEY WOULD HAVE TO CONTACT TOYO AND OBTAIN THEIR APPROVAL TO REPLACE THE TIRE. I WAS TOLD UNTIL TOYO CONTACTED THEM, THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO, BUT THAT IT WAS SAFE TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER REGULARLY, AND HAVE TOLD THAT TOYO HAS YET TO RESPOND. AFTER CHECKING THE NTSB.GOV WEBSITE, THE ONLY RECALL FOR A TIRE CLOSE TO THE ONE I HAVE MENTIONED IS A TOYO OPEN COUNTRY A/T MODEL. *TR

REAR END FAILURE. LEAKING OUT OF BOTH ENDS OF THE AXLE, CAUSING FLUID TO GET ONTO THE REAR BRAKE DISCS CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NHTSA RECALL NOTICE ID NUMBER 10V074000 TWO MONTHS AGO (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER: STORAGE: FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM) AND UPON CONTACTING THE DEALER THEY ADVISED HER THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE HAD EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE NUMEROUS TIMES PRIOR TO RECEIVING THE RECALL NOTICE. THE MANUFACTURER VERIFIED THAT THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE WITHIN THE NEXT THREE WEEKS. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE ALSO NOT AVAILABLE.

WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2006 NISSAN TITAN, WHEN SHE WAS ARRIVING TO AN INTERSECTION AND CAME TO A STOP THE TRUCK JUST SHUT OFF WITHOUT A WARNING. THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANY TYPE OF WARNING. MY CONCERN IS FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY, WE HAVE A FOUR MONTH OLD BABY THAT WE TRANSPORT ON THAT VEHICLE. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE IPDM INOP HAS NO POWER TO THE FUEL PUMP.BUT, I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND I'M NOT THE FIRST INDIVIDUAL WITH THIS PROBLEM; ON ONE INCIDENT A TRUCK, SAME MODEL DIFFERENT YEAR, SHUT OFF ON THE FREEWAY WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED WERE THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. NISSAN RIGHT NOW HAS A RECALL WITH THEIR GAS GAUGE, BUT THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM WITH MY TRUCK WAS NOT RELATED WITH THE COMPONENT ON RECALL. I QUESTIONED THAT FACT THAT THERE WAS NO CHECK ENGINE OR ANY TYPE OF WARNING IF THE TRUCKS COMPONENT HAS POWER AND IS ATTACHED TO THE TRUCKS COMPUTER; I COULDN'T GET AN EXPLANATION FROM THE ASSISTANT SERVICE MANAGER AT THE NISSAN DEALER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE FUEL INDICATOR DISPLAYED ONE QUARTER TANK OF GASOLINE; HOWEVER; THE FUEL TANK WAS EMPTY. THE VEHICLE WAS MANUALLY PUSHED TO A NEARBY SERVICE STATION WHERE HE WAS ABLE TO ADD GASOLINE AND CONTINUE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT CONFIRMED THAT HE PREVIOUSLY RECEIVED RECALL CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V074000, FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER: STORAGE: FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM; YET, HE HAD NOT HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 70,000.
