2006 NISSAN TITAN Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN TITAN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT END COLLISION. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, AND THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE TECHNICIAN RECOMMENDED TO TOW THE VEHICLE TO NISSAN. THE VEHICLE WAS DEEMED OPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO CARRIAGE NISSAN (2400 BROWNS BRIDGE RD, GAINESVILLE, GA), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,000.

HAD A RECALL ON THE 2004-2006 AIR BAGS AND TOOK TITAN IN TO UNIVERSITY NISSAN IN FLORENCE, AL. WAS INFORMED THAT THE RECALL COULD NOT BE COMPLETED ON SOME OF THE 2004-2006 TITANS AND THEY WOULD CONTACT NISSAN TO GET A SOLUTION. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS OF WAITING I CONTACTED NISSAN USA AND THEN UNIVERSITY NISSAN TRIED AGAIN TO REPROGRAM THE AIRBAGS BUT IT STILL WOULD NOT TAKE. NOW I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT NISSAN HAS SUSPENDED THE RECALL UNTIL SUCH TIME THAT THEY CAN PRODUCE A PROGRAM TO FIX THIS RECALL. I KNOW, OTHER OWNERS ARE HAVING SAME PROBLEM AND NOW WHAT CAN BE DONE ? IF AIR BAGS DECIDE TO GO OFF ON MY VEHICLE, WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND THE REPAIRS TO FIX IF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOY FOR NO REASON ? I NEED MY VEHICLE AND CANNOT PARK UNTIL THEY DECIDE TO FIX THEIR MISTAKE. I NEED SOME HELP IN GETTING THIS RECALL TAKEN CARE OF. IF YOU CANNOT HELP THEN WHERE DO I TURN FOR HELP. EMMETT JONES

POWER STEERING FAILURE WHILE TURNING WITH ONLY 20599 MILES ON VEHICLE. LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP REFILLED FLUID. FAILED AGAIN ONLY MONTHS LATER. A WEB SEARCH INDICATED THAT POWER STEERING HOSE FAILURE IS COMMON ON THIS VEHICLE.

KEEP GETTING A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR OUR TRUCK. HOWEVER CHECK THE VIN # OUT AND IT SAYS NOTHING IS THERE. BUT IN THE MAIL TODAY IT SAYS THERE IS STILL A RECALL FOR THE WIRE HARNESS ROUTED THROUGH THE REAR DOORS ON THE CAMPAIGN # 06V-459

EXHAUST MANIFOLDS LEFT AND RIGHT CRACKED AND LEAKING LESS THAN 1 MOS OUT OF WARRENTY NISSAN REFUSED ANY ASSISTANCE. I WAS A NISSAN PARTS MGR FOR 50 YRS NO CONSIDERATION. WHEN MY WIFE NEEDED A NEW CAR FOR HER 2001 SENTRA WE PURCHASED A MAZDA CX5 INSTEAD OF A ROUGE

I BOUGHT THIS TITAN AT TRI-STATE NISSAN IN WINCHESTER, VA. MY BRAKE ROTOR WERE COMPLETELY RUSTED DUE TO BAD METAL USED - I HAD TO REPLACE THEM AT 30,000 MILES. MY LEFT REAR WHEEL SEAL WAS DEFECTIVE AND STARTED STARTED LEAKING FLUID AT 70,000. HAD TO REPLACE EVEN THOUGH I HAD EXTENDED WARRANTY. CATALYTIC MANIFOLDS WENT BAD AND THEY KNEW IT WHEN IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY - BUT THEY DIDN'T REPLACE THEM. PAINT PROBLEM WHEN THE TRUCK IS COLD - BIG GIANT SPOTS IN THE CLEAR COAT. THE MANIFOLDS MANIFOLDS NEED TO BE RECALLED BECAUSE THE EXHAUST IS ENTERING THE VEHICLE.

REAR DIFFERENTIAL IS LEAKING GEAR OIL OUT OF BOTH ENDS OF MY RWD TRUCK. CONTACTED NISSAN DEALER AND THEY REFERRED ME TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. FILED A CLAIM AND WAS TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY SO THEY WOULD NOT ASSIST WITH REPAIR EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN TITAN TRUCKS, PARTICULARLY BETWEEN MODELS YEARS 2004-2006. I HAVE NEVER TOWED WITH THIS TRUCK AND HAVE CHANGED THE GEAR OIL FREQUENTLY. ALSO, I HAVE REPLACED THE BREATHER PERIODICALLY AS WELL. NOW THE FLUID IS FLOWING OUT WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY.
