whining noise..took it in because I thought it may be caliper or brakes. Rear-end is shot... dont have an estimate yet.

Both seals leak replace right seal nissan deal .485.00

Drivers side rear axle seal started leaking. This was repaired under warranty.... Then just as my Titan's warranty ran out, the passanger side rear axle seal failed. That's both of them!!! This is a major problem with a very high occurance. I personally know 5 Titan owners and only one of them has not had to replace at least one rear axle seal.

Right axle seal was replaced at 37,000, again at 93,000 and is leaking again at 137,000. Totally unacceptable costs associated with keeping this vehicle road worthy.

Truck at dealer now to fix leaking pinion seal in rear end. Usually have my own mechanic work on truck because I hate dealers, but apparently you need a special wrench or socket that was too expensive for one job. Of course once I got to the dealer they told me the left rear axle seal was also leaking ( this was last week when I first took it to the dealer for repair, but they ordered the wrong part and sent me home). When I got home there was some oil residue on the backside of the left axle end, but it appeared to me to have run from the rear end along the bottom surface of the axle which I believe just may have been overflow from when they put the rear end back together and filled it up last week so I could drive it home. The stain looks the same a week and a day later as it did then and there is no evidence of a leak on my driveway at the left wheel, only evidence of the drip from the rear end in the center of the truck. They also told me that they would have to replace the whole axle (800.00 plus) because the seal can't be replaced. I know otherwise. I told them to leave the axle alone. My own mechanic said he will check it out because there was no evidence of an axle leak when he first diagnosed the problem and the seal should be able to be replaced without buying a new axle.. From reading online about this problem, I believe they are trying to get me to pay for something before the almost sure to come recall on this issue happens.
