2004 NISSAN TITAN Complaints

I HAVE 27,000 MILES ON THIS TRUCK, I WAS IN 2 TIMES FOR BRAKE PROBLEMS THE LAST TIME THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED RIGHT DUE TO THE NEW BRAKES. I HAVE THE PROBLEM AGAIN AT 27,000 MILES AND THEY SAY WARRANTY IS OUT!! THIS WAS UNDER ENGINEERED AND NOW ITS MY PROBLEM. ALSO THE REAR SPRING SHACKLE BROKE SENDING THE LEAF SPRING INTO THE BED OF THE TRUCK DENTING IT. I BOUGHT AFTER MARKET SHACKLES AND FOUND THE OTHER SIDE WAS CRACKED. *TR

RIGHT SIDE REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKING DIFFERENTIAL FLUID ON BRAKE DRUM. NISSAN TITAN 04 LE. *TR

MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN AND BOOM A LOUD BANG FOLLOWED BY NO FORWARD MOVEMENT WHILE IN DRIVE AND LOUD GRINDING NOISE FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. DRIVESHAFT STILL SPINS WHILE IN GEAR. SOUNDS LIKE ANOTHER NISSAN TITAN REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 NISSAN TITAN. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS, THE EXHAUST TAIL PIPE WAS DAMAGED DUE TO AN UNKNOWN OBSTACLE ON THE ROAD SURFACE. THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. IN ADDITION, WHENEVER THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR WAS OPENED, THE PARKING LIGHT ACTIVATED WITHOUT ASSISTANCE AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE TURN SIGNAL WAS NONFUNCTIONAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR INSPECTION AND THEY STATED THAT THE TAIL PIPE DISENGAGEMENT CONTRIBUTED TO THE MELTING OF THE WIRING HARNESS. THE VEHICLE IS OPERABLE AND HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 65,000.

MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN RECENTLY STARTED LEAKING GEAR OIL FROM BOTH AXLES IN THE REAR. CONCURRENTLY MY BRAKE PADS STARTING ABSORBING THE OIL WHICH IN TURN RUINED MY ROTORS, BRAKE PADS, AND NOW IS COSTING ME A PRETTY PENNY TO GET IT FIXED. MY MECHANIC SAID THE LOCAL AUTO PARTS STORES DO NOT CARRY THESE BEARINGS AND SEALS AND THEREFORE MUST CONTACT THE ORIGINAL DEALER TO ORDER THEM. AFTER READING AND FOLLOWING UP ON THE ADDITIONAL COMPLAINTS BY MANY OTHER TITAN OWNERS, I AM CURIOUS TO FIND OUT WHAT STEPS IN NISSAN TAKING TO RECALL THESE BAD SEALS AND BEARINGS? WHY SHOULD US THE OWNERS HAVE TO FIX COSTLY REPAIRS WHEN NISSAN KNOWS THEIR PRODUCTION EFFORTS WERE NOT PROPERLY TESTED BEFORE FIELDING THE DEALERSHIPS? PLEASE INFORM ME HOW TO GET IT FIXED FREE OF COST TO ME. *TR

2004 NISSAN TITAN KING CAB LE. DRIVER'S SIDE REAR AXLE OIL SEAL FAILED AT SOME TIME PRIOR TO 52,000 MILE INSPECTION. OIL OBSERVED ON ENTIRE REAR BACKING PLATE. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 NISSAN TITAN, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE REAR AXLE SEALS TWICE ALREADY.(ONCE MARCH 2009 AND ONCE ABOUT 1.5 YEARS AGO. WARRANTY COVERED, BUT I AM GETTING CLOSE TO MY WARRANTY LIMIT. I KNOW THAT THIS IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE, BECAUSE THE FLUID LEAKS DOWN ON YOUR BRAKES, WHICH IS A BIG FACTORY FAULT. I WAS JUST HOPING THAT SOMEONE COULD HELP ME, AND OTHER TITAN OWNERS, FOR THE SAFETY AND MONEY, OUT OF POCKET WHEN WARRANTY IS UP. NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS AND COME UP WITH SOMETYPE OF PERMANENT FIX. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. *TR THANK YOU BRIAN CASTLE

THE DOOR HANDLES LOCK EITHER OPEN OR CLOSED AND CAN LOCK YOU OUT OF YOUR VEHICLE EVEN IF THE DOORS ARE UNLOCKED OR LOCK THE DOOR OPEN WHICH MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO CLOSE YOUR DOOR. *TR

REAR DIFFERENTIAL 2004 NISSAN TITAN FAILURE NEVER TOWED ANYTHING. BRAKE WARP AND SHAKE. THESE ARE OBVIOUS MANUFACTURE DEFECT AND NISSAN SHOULD FIX THEM AT NO COST TO OWNER. THESE ARE ALSO CRITICAL SAFETY ISSUES. WE ARE TALKING BRAKE FAILURE AND POSSIBLE REAR END LOCK UP. THIS IS UNHEARD OF WITH A VEHICLE WITH THIS MILEAGE. *TR

THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL FAILURE @ 70,000 MILES... NISSAN IS SO UNDER HANDED THEY ARE STILL HOLDING THE PATENT AND WILL NOT RELEASE THE PARTS TO THE AFTERMARKET. WHEN I FIRST CALLED FOR THE REAR APPROX. 9 MONTHS AGO IT WAS $1400.00... NOW THE SAME DEALER SAYS THE PRICE HAS GONE UP TO $1700... THIS IS BEYOND HIGHWAY ROBBERY IT IS FLAT OUT A DISREGARD FOR THE CONSUMER. IT IS BECAUSE OF THIS AT EVERY CHANCE I GET I STOP AT THE BUSIEST NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND CONTINUALLY MAKE A "SCENE'. I KNOW IT WILL GET ME NO WHERE, BUT I STILL OWE $17,000 ON A POS THAT I CANNOT DRIVE. *TR
