2006 NISSAN TITAN Complaints

REAR END STARTED HUMMING AT 1300 MILES. I WAS IN MY YARD JUST STARTING OFF PULLING MY HORSE TRAILER (ABOUT 2 MILES PER HOUR) AND I HEARD THIS HUMMING HIGH PITCHED WHINE. I AM GOING TO CALL THE DEALERSHIP TIGHT AWAY. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE THE AUTOMATIC POWER WINDOW CONTROL ON BOTH FRONT WINDOWS WERE DEPRESSED, IT ALLOWED THE WINDOW TO ROLL COMPLETELY UP OR DOWN WITH ONE TOUCH. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT ALERTED.

REAR AXLE SEAL FAILURE. FLUID LEAKING ONTO BRAKE ROTOR. NORMAL DRIVING ON VEHICLE WITH ONLY 15000 MILES. DEALER REPAIRED SEALS AND SPACERS UNDER WARRANTY. *NM

THE REAR AXLE SEALS ON THE NISSAN TITAN YEARS 2004-CURRENT HAVE A SEVERE AND PERSISTENT PROBLEM WITH LEAKING. I HAVE HAD MY 2006 NISSAN TITAN IN THE SHOP ONCE TO REPLACE THE RIGHT REAR AXLE SEAL AT 18,000 MILES AND NOW AT 20,000 MILES IT IS LEAKING AGAIN. THE LOCATION OF THE LEAK IS WHAT WORRIES ME. WHEN THE AXLE SEAL FAILS, IT SPRAYS GEAR OIL ON THE BRAKE COMPONENTS (ROTORS, CALIPERS, PADS) AND I AM WORRIED THAT THE PADS WILL BECOME CONTAMINATED AND NOT WORK EFFECTIVELY WHEN TO STOP MY TRUCK IN CASE OF A SUDDEN STOP. *NM

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE ON 5/29/06 FROM VICTORY NISSAN OF RICHMOND. ONE WEEK LATER PROPERTY WAS STOLEN WHEN A SUNROOF WAS INSTALLED. AT THE END OF JUNE, BRAKES FAILED AND PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT STARTED GOING ON INTERMITTENTLY. ALSO, DRIVER SEAT IS CROOKED. DEALER SAID THEY BLED THE BRAKES AND CLUTCH(?). THIS IS AN AUTOMATIC. ALSO, THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG (THEN WHY DOES LIGHT KEEP COMING ON AND STAYING ON?) AND THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SEAT. LAST NIGHT (8/15/06) MY BRAKES FAILED AGAIN. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DEALER THIS MORNING. I ADVISE THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THESE WERE LIFE SAFETY ISSUES AND SHOULD FALL UNDER THE LEMON LAW. I WAS ADVISED THE LEMON LAW WASN'T THEIR PROBLEM AND I WOULD HAVE TO CONTACT NISSAN USA FOR ASSISTANCE. IS IT STILL NOT THEIR CONCERN WHEN THE FAULTY PRODUCT THEY SOLD FAILS AND CAUSES LOSS OF LIFE??? *NM

ON 22 JUNE 2006, I NOTICED WATER COMING BETWEEN THE HEADLINER AND REAR WINDOW JUST RIGHT OF THE CENTER ELECTRIC WINDOW. WATER HAD BEEN DRIPPING ONTO THE WINDOW LEDGE BELOW THE LEAK FOR SOMETIME DUE TO THE CONCENTRATION OF WATER SPOTS. THE LOCAL DEALER IDENTIFIED THE LOCATION OF THE LEAK (WITH PICTURES) AND HAD THE WINDOW PULLED AND RESEALED BY A LOCAL SPEEDY AUTO GLASS. UPON RECEIPT OF THE VEHICLE, I WAS GIVEN INSTRUCTION NOT TO CLOSE THE DOORS TO HARD AND TO WAIT AT LEST 48 HOURS BEFORE WASHING. APPROXIMATELY 72 HOUR AFTER RECEIPT OF THE VEHICLE I WASHED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED WATER LEAKING FROM THE SAME SPOT. *NM

AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE THE FUEL GAUGE FAILED TO RETURN TO FULL IMMEDIATELY. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN FOR MORE THAN 15 MINUTES THE GAUGE WOULD FINALLY READ FULL. WHEN THE VEHICLE SAT FOR MORE THAN 2 HOURS THE SAME CONDITION OCCURRED. AFTER NEXT REFUEL THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE RESOLVED UNTIL THE VEHICLE SAT FOR MORE THAN 2 HOURS. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALER FOR FURTHER ASSISTANCE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE HAD BEEN A SERVICE BULLETIN DESCRIBING THE PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WOULD GO AWAY AFTER SEVERAL DAYS. IT HAS BEEN SEVERAL WEEKS AND SEVERAL REFUELS AND THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED. *NM

CONSUMER'S 2006 NISSAN TITAN PULLS TO THE LEFT/ RIGHT WHEN DRIVING. *TS THE CONSUMER NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE PULLED TO THE RIGHT ON THE DATE OF PURCHASE. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER. THE CONSUMER HAD TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE VEHICLE LOOKED AT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER ON APRIL 12, 2006. AN ALIGNMENT WAS DONE ON THE VEHICLE AND IT WAS RETURNED TO THE CONSUMER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED IT STILL PULLED TO THE RIGHT. THE CONSUMER CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ALIGNMENT WAS DONE TO FACTORY SPECS. THE CONSUMER MADE THE DEALER AWARE THAT THE SPECIFICATIONS WERE DIFFERENT FOR THE 2005 AND 2006 MODELS. *NM

AFTER ROLLING DOWN THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW IT WOULD ONLY ROLL UP HALF WAY, THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE BUYING MY 06 TITAN 03/31/06. FINALLY THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE WOULD HAVE TO ORDER A PART. *JB

DRIVE TRAIN-REAR END MAKING A WHINING SOUND. COMPLETE REAR END ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED IN MY 2006 TITAN WITH 2000 MILES ON IT. NEW REAR END STARTED TO MAKE SAME NOISE AT 500 MILES. HAVE NOT RETURNED TO DEALER YET BUT PLAN TO DO SO AT LATER DATE. *JB
