Nissan Titan Problems
Overheating/Lack of Ventilation May Cause Rear Axle Seals to Leak
Overheating and/or lack of proper venting can cause the rear axle seals to leak. Excessive fluid loss can result in major damage to the rear differential assembly and/or axle bearings.
Corrosion due to water in connector between engine and wiring harness
Water can cause corrosion in the connector between the engine and transmission wiring harness. The engine may crank but not start, stall, and/or the transmission may not shift correctly.
Catalytic Converter Damage Due to Weak or Failing Fuel Pump
A weak or failing fuel pump can cause power loss due to lower fuel pressure and lean mixture conditions. This rarely causes a Check Engine Light to illuminate and should be repaired to avoid catalytic converter damage.
Failing navigation unit may display disc error on screen
A navigation unit that is failing can intermittently display a disc error on the screen.
On-car rotor resurfacing and updated brake pads for pulsation issue
The brakes may develop a pulsation or judder felt during light and moderate braking. This may be felt as a pedal pulsation, steering wheel shake, and/or a body vibration. The repair involves resurfacing all four brake rotors using an "On-car" brake lathe (replacing if necessary) and using updated brake pads and components.

Brake Pedal May Partially Disengage from the Brake Pedal Bracket
RepairPal Expert Overview:
The pin that secures the brake pedal to the mounting bracket may become dislodged. This would cause the pedal to become loose, and could compromise braking action. Dealers will inspect the pivot pin area and replace the brake pedal assembly if necessary. This recall began on March 22, 2010.

RepairPal Expert Overview:
The instrument panel fuel gauge may show fuel in the fuel tank when there is none, typically about 1/4 when the tank is empty. This could cause the vehicle to run out of gas and stall, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will replace the fuel sender unit inside the fuel tank to correct this concern. This recall is expected to begin on March 22, 2010.

RepairPal Expert Overview:
The AC condenser fan motor in the engine compartment may not be sealed properly against water intrusion or have proper drainage. Water intrusion may lead to corrosion and possibly overheating of the motor, and a fire. Dealers will install a "thermal protector kit", and test the AC condenser fan motor, and replace it if needed. The recall began August 2, 2008.

The muffler is good but the flanges/tail pipe has rusted off.I only have 32,000 miles I brought this truck new
i bought my titan brand new love it havent had any problems with it its got 91000 miles on it now
I have an 06 titan LE. First let me start of with the good things ... plenty of power, plenty of room (crew cab), very appealing truck. I've hauled up to 6K lbs and it did great. Now to the negatives ... brakes and rotors had to be replaced around 45K, exhaust had to be replaced around 48K now my front axle (left side) is making a clicking noise when it's in 4wd. Not sure why or what is going bad, but I've never heard it before on any of my past trucks. I'm hoping that its nothing major, but if anyone out there has an idea of what it is let me know.
I have a 2006 Titan LE kingcab 58'000 miles that I purchased new in 2006. It's pretty loaded with leather, moonroof etc.. I like the ride and the motor performance but here's what I don't like: The truck needed full brake/rotor replacement service at 30k then again at 57k, the exhaust rusted off at 37,500k, the shift into 4wd and back to 2wd is never quick it always requires some time. I have had front end metal wrenching noises since new and Nissan says they find nothing. Now the noises are worse and will have to pay a private Mechanic to find the problem. The serpentine belt needed to be replaced at 57k as well. I have owned 3 toyotas and never changed an exhaust under 100k, never changed a serpentine belt under 100k, never required break replacement under 57k and always had emmediate change from 2wd to 4wd shift. I purchased the Titan with a 36k warranty and assumed I didn't need extended warranty because Japanese products don't fail early like Toyota. Well I was wrong!!! This truck is a looker with a great engine and a very good driver as long as the front end noises don't freak you out. I will not purchase another Titan due to all the issues.
