Know Your Truck

2014 Nissan Titan

Recalls and owner complaints reported to NHTSA

Compared with the typical (middle) count of 1,110 complaints across the 6 model-year 2014 half-ton trucks we cover. Best-selling trucks naturally collect more complaints because more of them are on the road.

Price & value

We don't guess at prices. Get a real value for the exact truck from Kelley Blue Book, then see how the asking price compares.

Is it a good deal?

  1. Look up the truck on Kelley Blue Book. Choose its cab, trim, options, miles, condition and your ZIP code, and note the private party value (or the fair purchase price if you're buying from a dealer).
  2. Enter that value and the asking price below.
Check value on Kelley Blue Book ↗

Enter both numbers to see the deal rating.

The rating only compares the two numbers you enter: within 5% of the value is a good deal, 5–15% under is a great deal, and more than 15% under is a buy-it-now price. Know Your Truck isn't affiliated with Kelley Blue Book. Rust, accident history, lifts and mods, and service records all change what a truck is worth, so always get a pre-purchase inspection.

Recalls

A recall doesn't mean a truck still has the problem. Enter the truck's VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or ask a dealer to see whether the repair was done.

    Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2014 model year Titan King Cab and Crew Cab pick-up trucks manufactured August 27, 2013, through November 13, 2013.

    Read more: details, risk and fix

    Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2014 model year Titan King Cab and Crew Cab pick-up trucks manufactured August 27, 2013, through November 13, 2013. In the affected vehicles, the Tire and Loading Information label overstates the maximum load and passenger carrying capacity of the vehicle. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims for Passenger Cars."

    Risk: If the vehicle is loaded to the capacity stated on the incorrect label, and the tire load capacity is exceeded, the vehicle may experience structural damage to the tire. If this occurs, this may lead to tire failure which could increase the risk of a crash.

    Fix: Nissan will notify owners and will provide owners with a correct label to install, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on January 21, 2014. Owners may contact Nissan at [phone removed].

      APPLIED BRAKES AND BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. PEDAL WAS SOFT AND MADE A GRINDING SOUND. BRAKES STILL WORKED BUT NOT VERY WELL. CLEARED THE PROBLEM BY TURNING OFF ENGINE AND RESTARTING. THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE. I VIDEO TAPED WITH MY CELL PHONE BEFORE RESETTING. HAD THIS CHECKED SEVERAL YEARS AGO AND DEALER RESET SOMETHING. HE SAID IT MAY OR MAY NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. IT DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. HE SAID THE COST TO REPLACE THE FAULTY PART WOULD BE APPROX.$900.00. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AS IT IS A POTENTIAL HAZARD IF BRAKING HAD TO BE DONE SUDDENLY AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. *TR

    1 involved a crash
    • Filed Mar 2015

      TONNEAU COVER FLEW OFF BACK OF TRUCK ON BUSY HIGHWAY. CAR COMING BEHIND TRUCK HIT IT, ROLLED AND DID SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THEIR VEHICLE. ALL FOUR CLIPS WERE ON TONNEAU COVER, SO IF ONE CLIP CAME OFF, THE OTHER THREE SHOULD HAVE HELD COVER IN PLACE. SHORTLY AFTER THIS ACCIDENT, I WAS TOLD BY TWO OTHER INDIVIDUALS THAT THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED WITH THEIR TONNEAU COVER, HOWEVER, NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED. I WAS ALSO TOLD BY ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL THAT THE TRUCK LINER FLEW FROM THE BACK OF THE TRUCK. THERE SHOULD BE SOME TIME OF SAFETY HARNESSES ON THESE TRUCK PARTS. THE BRACKETS THAT WERE USED TO HOLD DOWN THE TONNEAU COVER ON THE NISSAN TITAN WERE NOT USER FRIENDLY, NOR VERY ACCURATE FOR THE DANGERS THAT COULD OCCUR FROM THE COVER FLYING OFF THE VEHICLE. *TR
