2021 NISSAN TITAN Complaints

Transmission downshifts hard from 2nd, to 1st, gear. When this happens, the truck jerks forward, and I have to now keep a big distance between me and the cars ahead of me.

The gears shift rough causing the vehicle to jerk or down shifting early causing a stall when imcreasing accelaration. It is dangerous when you cant accelarate at times to avoid cars or merging on to the highway. I took it in and Nissan said this was fine and everything seemed normal.

Transmission lags, and clunks. Will downshift unexpectedly upon deceleration causing the truck to lurch forward. Acceleration lags because vehicle does not shift correctly.This could put myself and others at risk. My truck only has 7,000 miles on it but the truck has done this since I got it brand new.

1st issue was power steering failed while driving. All fluid was purged and steering became very difficult. No injuries nor damage occurred as vehicle was stopped safely. Repaired by dealer (12000mi) 2nd failure. Transmission failed shifting abruptly to first gear while driving in traffic. Vehicle was limped into parking lot. Vehicle towed to dealer, valve body replaced, vehicle returned after 1 week. 5 hours after pickup vehicle slammed back into 1st gear while driving causing similar issue in traffic. Vehicle back in dealership awaiting transmission from Nissan (13000mi)

Vehicle began to rev the engine to approximately 6,000 or 7,000 RPM's. This occurred for several seconds before correcting itself. Immediately after correcting itself, the engine began to rev to the same RPM's as stated before for several seconds again. After a few seconds, there was a loud clunk sound and the entire truck learched forward aggressively. Truck was travelling approximately 20 mph in stop and go traffic. Vehicle was pulled to the side of the road and felt as if it could not get past the 1st gear/limp mode. For safety reasons, vehicle was moved to a nearby parking lot where it was parked until a tow truck was available.

When slowing down the transmission will Jerk between gears 1 and 2 causing the truck to lunge forward.

Transmission issue: *Taking off from a complete stop at a traffic light or stop sign the truck is sluggish unless I give it about 1/4 throttle then it takes off slow it feels like its not in 1st gear. This is dangerous if trying to avoid incoming traffic while turning on a busy intersection. *There's occasions at a stop the truck surges forward by itself. *While driving and trying to pass a vehicle the transmission downshifted normal then it shifts up then down again. *When shifting from park to drive the transmission clunks. *When slowing down the downshift is harsh. I have taken to the dealership 2 times their response its the nature of the transmission.

The transmission lags, slips gears, shift’s harshly. When slowing down shifting from second to first gear around 15th, there is a very noticeable clunk in the transmission.

My 2021 Pro4x Titan with 6,400 miles has on numerous occasions not shifted up and out of 1st gear despite being in typical Drive, automatic transmission. I have owned the truck for just over 1 year and I have noticed this 10+ times when moving at slower speeds. I generally shift into Neutral and enter Drive again, which fixes the issue.

Purchased vehi le with 2000 miles on it. Vehicle shifts very rough. When the transmission downshifts to stop it will bump or lerch forward. If you are not expecting it the truck will go forward. There is a lot of lag while accelerating. Dealer looked over vehicle and worked with Nissan to check several things. The dealer techs all noticed the problem. They compared it to a new one and tne new one did the same thing. It is a little frustrating because it acts like a damaged worn out transmission although the vehicle has very little miles and is babied.
