  • Filed May 2025

    The exhaust manifolds on the driver and passenger side are cracked. Ticking sounds are made while car is cold and goes away after they have heated up enough, typically after 5 minutes. This results in letting in exhaust fumes inside the cabin, regardless of the air conditioner/heater is on, which leads to being lightheaded and nearly passing out and crashing. The fumes are stronger when stationary but happens no matter what, even after the ticking is gone and driving down the highway.

    While driving down the road a pot hole was hit and the center cap of steering wheel split as if airbag should have deployed.

  • Filed Jan 2022

    In a low speed wreck (15mph or less) the air bag deployed sending the metal clip, holding the plastic Nissan emblem at the center of the steering wheel, flying. Hitting me right next to my eye at a very high rate of speed. Causing trauma to my eye and surrounding tissue. Missing my eye by less than an inch. If I would have been looking straight ahead instead of slightly to the right where the collision was, I would have lost my eye. How did this manufacturer allowed a piece of metal be installed in front of the air bag is mind boggling. Air bags deploy at speeds of 200mph, launching anything in front of them at that speed. I was very lucky, I hope this agency can warn everyone who owns a Nissan vehicle with this design of a metal clip holding the emblem at the center of the steering wheel. I have photos of the emblem, clip, steering wheel, air bag, and my injury showing exactly how/where the clip hit me by the cuts it left on my face in the shape of the clip. I tried to upload photos but received an error from the website. If you could contact me I would like to send you the photos. They prove without a doubt the facts started above.

AFTER A FEW MINUTES, I TURN ON THE TRUCK AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS TURNS OFF AND MY BRAKES START WORKING AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN TWICE. THANK GOD THAT THE TIMES IT HAS HAPPEN THERE HAS BEEN HARDLY ANY TRAFFIC.

    FOR THE PAST 6 MONTHS, I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELING "SPONGY" AND OCCASIONALLY GOING TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT ANY REDUCTION IN SPEED. THE BRAKE PEDAL PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE AND CULMINATED WHEN I WAS TRAVELLING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH AND TRIED TO SLOW DOWN DUE TO SLOWER TRAFFIC. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. I HAD TO SWERVE INTO THE BREAKDOWN LANE TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO KEPT IT FOR SEVERAL DAYS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. HE REPLACED SEVERAL BRAKE COMPONENTS INCLUDING THE FRONT BRAKE CALIPERS, MASTER CYLINDER, BRAKE BOOSTER, AND THE ABS MODULE. HE THEN BLED THE BRAKE LINES MULTIPLE TIMES TO GET THE BRAKE PEDAL BACK TO ITS NORMAL RANGE. ALL OF THIS WORKED FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND THEN THE PROBLEM RETURNED. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER ON JANUARY 31, 2018 AND HAD THE FOLLOWING DONE. THEY PERFORMED ANOTHER BRAKE FLUSH, CLEANED AND ADJUSTED THE REAR CALIPERS, AND CLEANED AND LUBRICATED THE SLIDES AND PAD CONTACTS. I PICKED THE TRUCK UP AND THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT LIKE NEW. IT HAS NOW BEEN A LITTLE OVER THREE MONTHS AND THE BRAKE PEDAL IS GRADUALLY FALLING TOWARDS THE FLOOR DURING BRAKING, SIMILAR TO PAST EXPERIENCE. BRAKING DISTANCES WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION HAVE INCREASED AND THE BRAKING POWER DOESN'T SEEM TO BE THERE ANYMORE.

    I HAVE HAD OVER A DOZEN INSTANCES WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES THE BREAK PEDDLE WOULD PUSH TO THE FLOOR AND YOU WOULD HEAR A LOUD NOISE AS IF THE ABS BRAKING SYSTEM WAS FAILING. YOU COULD FEEL IT IN THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT FRIGHTENS THE HECK OUT OF YOU. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO MY LOCAL PREMIER NISSAN IN METAIRIE, LA AND HAD THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT LOOK AT IT, BUT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND INFORMED THEY COULD NOT HELP. I HAVE HAD MY FAMILY IN THE TRUCK AND IT HAS HAPPENED WITH THEM AND MY 16 YEAR OLD SON HAS EXPERIENCED IT AS WELL. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND I'M AFRAID ONE DAY IT WILL FAIL AND I WILL LOOSE THE ABILITY TO STOP MY VEHICLE. AFTER EACH INCIDENT, I HAVE TO TURN THE TRUCK OFF AND RESTART IT TO STOP THE NOISE FROM COMING FROM THE ABS BREAK SYSTEM. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS THAT I HAVE TO TURN MY TRUCK OFF WHILE HAVING A GREEN LIGHT, ON THE INTERSTATE AND ANY OTHER DANGEROUS SITUATION. I WISH I COULD GET SOME CLARITY AS TO FIXING THIS BREAKING ISSUE.

    BRAKES HAVE A FADING BRAKE PEDAL, NISSAN SAYS THIS IS OK/NORMAL. I SAY THIS IS DANGEROUS. THE BRAKES WORK FINE UNLESS YOU ARE IN A PANIC SITUATION. WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE PEDAL TO MAKE A QUICK STOP IF NECESSARY ON THE HIGHWAY THE PEDAL TRAVELS 4" TO 5". YOU LOSE SECONDS IN A "NEED TO STOP NOW" SITUATION. NOT ONLY DOES THIS MAKE THE DRIVER TRY TO PUMP THE BRAKES BUT THE TRAVEL IS SO LONG AS TO EXTEND YOUR LEG COMPLETELY AND STILL NEED TO COMPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL MORE. DIDN'T REALIZE THIS PROBLEM EXISTED UNTIL THE OTHER DAY WHEN I NEEDED TO PANIC STOP. ALMOST LOST CONTROL TRYING TO COMPENSATE FOR THE PEDAL TRAVEL. ALSO WHEN BACKING MY BOAT INTO THE LAKE - CONSTANT PRESSURE MAKES THE PEDAL TRAVEL DOWN. THE BRAKES HOLD BUT I HAVE TO COMPENSATE FOR THIS "MUSHY" PEDAL. I HAVE RECENTLY REPLACED THE BRAKES, CALIPERS AND MASTER CYLINDER TO NO AVAIL. I GUESS I COULD REPLACE ALL THE BRAKE COMPONENTS BUT ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH IT WON'T HELP. AS I UNDERSTAND IT THE NEWER VEHICLES OF NISSAN (NOT JUST TITAN) HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. HOW THEY GET AWAY WITH THIS I DON'T KNOW. ITS A PROBLEM YOU WOULDN'T KNOW ABOUT UNLESS YOU'VE DRIVEN THESE VEHICLES AWHILE..I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND BEING "DEAD ENDED" BY NISSAN. I'M 63, HAVE WORKED ON CARS MY WHOLE LIFE, I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS AS NO DOUBT MANY HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED BY THIS PROBLEM. I CANT SELL THE VEHICLE TO ANYONE ELSE KNOWING THERE'S NO SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. PS - FORD, CHRYSLER AND CHEVY DO NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THE ONLY SOLUTION IT SEEMS IS TO MODIFY/REPLACE THE WHOLE BRAKE SYSTEM -- EXPENSIVE AND DIFFICULT - WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS. PLEASE HELP.

    AT ALL TIMES WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE REAR END OF MY TRUCK SHAKES FROM 55-80 MILES PER HOUR (PRETTY MUCH THE USABLE SPEED RANGE OF THE TRUCK IS NOW WORTHLESS). THE TRUCK WOBBLES SO MUCH NOW THAT IT FEELS UNSAFE TO DRIVE EVEN AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM I.E. NEW TIRES, NEW RIMS AND NEW TIRES, BALANCING, ALIGNMENTS. RESEARCH THAT I HAVE DONE HAS DETERMINED THAT THIS IS A VERY WIDE-SPREAD PROBLEM AND MANY OWNERS/OPERATORS OF THE NISSAN TITAN REFER TO THIS VIOLENT SHAKING AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" I HAVE SPOKE WITH MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND HAVE DISCOVERED THAT NISSAN OF AMERICA IS NOT INTERESTED IN ADDRESSING THIS EPIDEMIC THAT IS EFFECTING SO MANY OF THE TITANS THEY HAVE MANUFACTURED. THE PROBLEM IS LARGE ENOUGH THAT NISSAN HAS PUBLISHED A TSB WHICH INCLUDES NECESSARY PARTS THAT MUST BE PURCHASED THAT MAY ONLY ALLEVIATE THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND NOT CURE IT. I AM SAD THAT NISSAN OF AMERICA IS NOT STANDING BEHIND ITS PRODUCT TO FIX AN ISSUE THAT IS CLEARLY HAZARDOUS NOT ONLY TO THE OWNER/OPERATOR OF THE TITAN, BUT ALL THOSE THAT ARE SHARING THE ROAD WITH THESE AFFECTED VEHICLES.

    Similar to Campaign ID: 10V074000, the fuel gauge will reach a quarter tank and then drop to empty without warning.

  • Filed May 2024

    There is an issue with the fuel gauge. Not reading correctly and running out of gas. Needle is at half tank and it has run out of fuel. I’ve had this happen to me multiple times. Gage reads more than I physically have. I’ve even ran out of fuel on the freeway.

    I am writing in regards to a recall that has previously been serviced on my vehicle. I bought my 2008 Nissan Titan through a private party on 4/16/23. The truck had no issues until 4/20/23. The fuel gauge read that I had a quarter tank of gas. However I was driving to work that morning and all of a sudden the truck acted as if it would when one runs out of fuel. I was not able to use the breaks and the steering was near impossible. I was frightened as I had my baby in the truck with me and I easily could have caused an accident not being able to use my breaks especially. Once I got to the side of the road and we stopped "coasting" I called for help. I did have an individual bring me some gas just incase that could have been the issue. Sure enough once I put fuel in it the truck started up and I got to the closet gas station to fuel up. Come to find out once my gas gauge reads a quarter tank it is in fact empty. The truck had a recall serviced on 4/16/2010 to replace the fuel gauge sending unit. I took the truck in to be serviced on 4/24/23 because of the issue I experienced. I was told that it was more than likely the sending unit and it would cost me $600-$800 to have it fixed. Why should I have to pay for a cost that has already been serviced once? Is there a warranty on a recall that has already been serviced? Can this possibly be a defect in the recall that was already serviced?

ALL TRUCKS SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO HAVE LT-RATED TIRES WITH A MINIMUM OF AT LEAST A 6-PLY TIRE DESIGN. THESE TIRES ALMOST CAUSED ME TO CRASH WHEN THE SIDE WALL CAME APART; AND IF DRIVING ON A GRAVEL ROAD CAN FLATTEN A TIRE THE P-RATED TIRES THAT EASILY THEN THEY SHOULD NOT BE USED AT ALL. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO GET COUNTRY FORD AND GOOD YEAR TO REPLACE THESE DANGEROUS TIRES SEVERAL TIMES WITH A PROPER LT-RATED TIRE. THEY BOTH REFUSED STATING THE TIRES SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO DO WHAT EVER I WANTED TO DO. EVIDENTLY THEY ARE WORTHLESS FOR EVERYDAY SIMPLE DRIVING, IF THE CAN BE FLATTENED WITH A ROCK.

THAT'S WHEN MY FUEL GAUGE WAS INCONSISTENT ON IT'S READINGS AND EVERY TIME I PUMPED GAS INTO MY TRUCK IT WOULD SPILL GAS OUT. I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO THE NISSAN DEALER I BOUGHT THE TRUCK FROM AND THEY KEPT IT FOR 3 1/2 HOURS WHEN I WENT TO PICK IT UP THEY SAID THEY FOUND NO PROBLEMS AND I SHOULD CHANGE MY GAS GRADE. I TOLD THEM I ONLY PUT 91 IN AND TO GO TO A LESSER GRADE WOULDN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS I WIGGLED AND REPOSITIONED THE NOZZLE TO HELP PREVENT THE GAS FROM SPILLING FROM THE TRUCK, MOST OF THE TIME THIS HELPS WITH LESS FUEL COMING OUT. I CALLED THEM AGAIN AND TOLD THEM I AM STILL HAVING THE SAME TWO PROBLEMS THEY SAID AGAIN THEY HADN'T FOUND ANYTHING WRONG BUT I COULD SCHEDULE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT. I TOLD THEM I WOULD GO TO ANOTHER MECHANIC. I DID AND BECAUSE THE TRUCK IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY THEY SAID I NEEDED TO GO TO THE DEALERSHIP. AFTER EXPLAINING TO THEM WHAT WAS HAPPENING THEY SET UP A MEETING WITH ANOTHER NISSAN DEALERSHIP, WHERE I LEARNED THAT ALL 08 AND 09 TIITANS HAVE NUMEROUS FUEL PROBLEMS. THEY DID REPLACE MY FUEL SENSOR AND SAID WITH THE GAS SPILLING OUT WHILE PUMPING I WOULD HAVE TO PULL THE NOZZLE ALMOST ALL THE WAY OUT AND HOLD THE LEVER ONLY A QUARTER OF THE WAY IN TO PREVENT THE GAS SPILLING OUT. I ASKED HIM WHY THIS WAS HAPPENING HE SAID THAT THE FUEL SYSTEM COULDN'T HANDLE MUCH GAS PER SECOND BECAUSE THE WAY THE FUEL SYSTEM WAS BUILT IT BUILDS UP TO MUCH PRESSURE AND IN RETURN GAS SPILLS OUT. I TOLD HIM I WOULD LIKE IT FIXED AND SAID THERE WAS NO FIX FOR IT EXCEPT TO PULL OUT THE NOZZLE AND LIGHTLY HOLD THE LEVER. I TOLD HIM I DIDN'T FEEL THAT WAS SAFE FOR MY FAMILY TO BE DRIVING AROUND IN A VEHICLE THAT BUILDS PRESSURE IN THE FUEL OF ALL PLACES HE SAID MY ONLY OTHER OPTION WAS TO GET ANOTHER VEHICLE. *TR

DURING A SERVICE VISIT TO A REPUTABLE LOCAL AUTOMOTIVE SHOP, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT A LUG STUD ON THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL WAS MISSING. THE STUD WAS BROKEN OFF. IT WAS REPLACED AND CONSIDERED A MYSTERIOUS BUT BENIGN INCIDENT. RETURNING FROM AN 1200 MILE ROAD TRIP LAST WEEK, I TOOK MY TITAN IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE TO THE SAME AUTOMOTIVE SHOP. THEY INFORMED ME THAT 4 OF THE 6 LUG NUTS WERE MISSING. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, THEY WERE ALL BROKEN OFF ABOUT A 1/4" FROM THE AXLE WHEEL MOUNT - ON THE SAME RIGHT REAR WHEEL. THE MISSING STUDS WERE IN THE 10, 12, 2 AND 6 O'CLOCK POSITIONS - THE ONLY 2 REMAINING STUDS THAT PREVENTED A CATASTROPIC ACCIDENT INVOLVING MY SON AND ME WERE IN THE 4 AND 8 O'CLOCK POSITIONS! IT IS NOTHING SHORT OF A MIRACLE THAT WE WERE NOT INVOLVED IN A DEADLY CRASH!! ONE OF THE TWO REMAINING STUDS HOLDING THE WHEEL ON THE AXLE WAS ONE REPLACED PREVIOUSLY LAST FALL. I HAD AIRED UP THE TIRES THE NIGHT BEFORE I LEFT ON THIS TRIP AND DID NOT NOTICE ANY MISSING LUG NUTS. CLEARLY THIS WAS NOT A THEFT ATTEMPT FOR TWO REASONS: A) WHY WOULD SOMEONE WHO COULD SIMPLY UNSCREW THE LUGS NUTS INSTEAD, WITH GREAT EFFORT, TWIST THEM OFF THE WRONG DIRECTION...AND FOR WHAT PURPOSE? AND B) TWICE IN SIX MONTHS ON THE SAME WHEEL? INTERNET RESEARCH REVEALS SEVERAL OTHER INCIDENTS OF BROKEN LUG STUDS, EVERYONE SEEMING TO ATTRIBUTE IT TO AN ODD, ONE-OFF INCIDENT.

THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT. THE HEADLIGHTS THEN FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE REAR AXLE FAILED WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH AND THE REAR AXLE WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND THEY DENIED ASSISTANCE WITH REPAIRS. THE HEADLIGHT FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 138,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE 148,000. SM.

    ON THE 2008 NISSAN TITAN THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW THAT MAY CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. THE HEADLAMPS AND TURN SIGNAL ARE ON THE SAME SWITCH. WHEN SIGNALING A TURN THE HEADLIGHT POSITION CHANGES. WHEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AS YOU WILL LOSE ALL EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR LIGHTS. IT IS CONFUSING TO THE OPERATOR OF THE VEHICLE AS THE OPERATOR MUST REACT RAPIDLY TO LOCATE THE SWITCH AND REGAIN SOME IDEA OF THE LOCATION OF THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION OPERATORS OF ONCOMING VEHICLES MAY BE CONFUSED BY THE HEADLIGHTS FLASHING ON/OFF. THE DEFECT HAS OTHER ACCIDENT POSSIBILITIES AS THE SWITCH MAY HAVE GONE TO THE OFF POSITION DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS AND THE AUTOMATIC SWITCH WOULD NOT OPERATE AS EXPECTED LEAVING A PERSON TRAVELING PAST THE TWILIGHT HOURS WITH OUT ROAD LIGHTS. *TR

    AT ALL TIMES WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE REAR END OF MY TRUCK SHAKES FROM 55-80 MILES PER HOUR (PRETTY MUCH THE USABLE SPEED RANGE OF THE TRUCK IS NOW WORTHLESS). THE TRUCK WOBBLES SO MUCH NOW THAT IT FEELS UNSAFE TO DRIVE EVEN AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM I.E. NEW TIRES, NEW RIMS AND NEW TIRES, BALANCING, ALIGNMENTS. RESEARCH THAT I HAVE DONE HAS DETERMINED THAT THIS IS A VERY WIDE-SPREAD PROBLEM AND MANY OWNERS/OPERATORS OF THE NISSAN TITAN REFER TO THIS VIOLENT SHAKING AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" I HAVE SPOKE WITH MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND HAVE DISCOVERED THAT NISSAN OF AMERICA IS NOT INTERESTED IN ADDRESSING THIS EPIDEMIC THAT IS EFFECTING SO MANY OF THE TITANS THEY HAVE MANUFACTURED. THE PROBLEM IS LARGE ENOUGH THAT NISSAN HAS PUBLISHED A TSB WHICH INCLUDES NECESSARY PARTS THAT MUST BE PURCHASED THAT MAY ONLY ALLEVIATE THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND NOT CURE IT. I AM SAD THAT NISSAN OF AMERICA IS NOT STANDING BEHIND ITS PRODUCT TO FIX AN ISSUE THAT IS CLEARLY HAZARDOUS NOT ONLY TO THE OWNER/OPERATOR OF THE TITAN, BUT ALL THOSE THAT ARE SHARING THE ROAD WITH THESE AFFECTED VEHICLES. MY PERSONAL NOTE IS THAT MY TRUCK FEELS SO HAZARDOUS THAT I WILL NO LONGER TRANSPORT MY WIFE OR MY 3 CHILDREN IN IT AND I THINK SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE TO FIX THIS ISSUE. *TR

    IN THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FOR MY NISSAN TITAN CONCERNING THE FUEL SENDING UNIT AND A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE PEDDLE. I CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT IN YET. I CALLED AGAIN IN THE MIDDLE OF JUNE AND WAS TOLD THAT THE PARTS HAVE NOT BEEN RELEASED BY THE MANUFACTURER. I CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE AND WAS TOLD THAT I COULD TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER LAUGHED AND SAID "YOU COULD BRING IT BUT IT MAY SIT HERE FOR SIX MONTHS OR MORE". I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE RECALL LETTER IS ALL THE MANUFACTURER IS REQUIRED TO DO. IS THIS TRUE? WHERE ARE THE PARTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM? IS THERE SOME AGENCY THAT MAKES SURE THAT THE MANUFACTURER FOLLOWS THROUGH ON THE RECALLS IN A TIMELY MANNER? *TR
