Replying to: kingkooldaddy (Oct 06, 2007 6:23 am) Oh, and by the way, I filed with the BBB and all Nissan would pony up was an extended warranty. Oh Boy!

Replying to: kingkooldaddy (Oct 06, 2007 6:25 am) I'm so sorry for your troubles. Do you still drive this truck then? Is it because the Titan has too small of a rotor for its weight? The new Titan supposedly have a rotor that is 26% bigger. I wonder if that solves the brake wear down problems.

Replying to: kingkooldaddy (Oct 06, 2007 6:25 am) As my truck had a ton of mods done I didn't want to pursue buyback. GM offered Major Guard bumper to bumper $0 deductible up to 5 years/100K miles worth $2700 if bought at the dealer. What that meant was any problem for the next 3 years or 75K miles would be paid for by GM. I think if Nissan offered something similar to bufalla he would be more than satisfied.

Replying to: gaspasser2 (Oct 06, 2007 8:12 am) No need to be sorry for me, thanks anyway. I should have researched a little more prior to buying, that's all. Don't get me wrong, sure, I have some sour grapes to Nissan, and the dealership that I bought it from in Gainesville Georgia, but it is performing well other than the brakes seem to be grinding a little lately. Power wise, the truck performs well, I just wish Nissan had done more home work in the beginning. Good luck to you and to all the other Titan owners.

Replying to: gaspasser2 (Oct 06, 2007 8:12 am) Thanks. Yes I still drive the truck. Other than this the truck is great. 04 was the first year and I'm sure they have fixed the problem with the brakes. I just want them to fix the problem on my truck and it should be no problem to do so. I am discouraged by the lack of concern on Nissan's part. It is so obvious there is a problem with the 04 model and they need to make this right. I am waiting on another response from Nissan now. The problem is the size of the rotar. We'll see....

#685 of 790 Nissan Titan differential problems by ncracecity Oct 09, 2007 (6:01 pm)
I purchased a new Titan in '04. Since then I have had 2 new differentials installed. The story I got was that a company called Danner (sp?) built the rear end and they had problems. In under 10,000 miles a significant "thump" developed when placing the car in reverse or park or drive, or whatever.   At first they tried to adjust the lash in the gears. At over 20,000 miles while in the shop for routine maint. they checked the brakes, gee, I wonder why? They found that the axle bearing seals were leaking, so they fixed them.   The "thumping" had been getting worse, so at just over 25,000 miles, I complained bitterly. This time they kept the truck for several weeks and ended up replacing the rear diff., that would be the 2nd rear end in this truck.   Next few thousand miles were switches, hoses, brake rotors, and other fun stuff until we got to just over 40,000 miles and the "thumping" was back with a vengeance. This time I got the "Danner rear end bad, Dana rear end good" speech. So they swapped it out again. For those not keeping count, that is the 3rd rear end. I was told it was a Dana rear end, hoorah, problem solved...not so quick.   Long story short, here we are over the warranty mileage and lo and behold after taking the truck for a routine oil change and asking them to just check the seals, I get the "you need a new rear end" call, and Nissan says, "so sorry, no mo' warranty for you". It wasn't even the Dana Diff. I was told it was.   I will be contacting a lawyer.   Good Luck with your older Titan, I am sorely disgusted with what I thought would be a truck I could run for 150,000 miles.
#686 of 790 Wow! by bufalla Oct 10, 2007 (1:24 pm)
Wow--I thought I had it bad. I believe you need to contact a lawyer. I actually got an email last Friday saying that I would hear from someone within one business day. Well here it is Wednesday of the next week and nothing. I am going to take the advice of an earlier response and contact the BBB first. There is a lawyer on the web under lemon laws that will take your case with no cost to you. They get their payment from the company. Don't know their rep though so can't recommend. Keep us updated on your status.
#687 of 790 Woot!! by obyone Oct 19, 2007 (11:21 am)
Rear brakes gone at 27K. Tires gone at 30K.    Good thing I replaced the front pads at 100 miles with ceramics. Dealer quotes $300 to cut rotors and replace pads...no thanks. Bought a set of ceramic pads for the rears but having a hard time finding replacement tires locally. Size seems to be an "E" rated tire.

Replying to: bufalla (Oct 08, 2007 4:26 am) I have an 2004 Titan SE. I have had brake problems 11 times(warped rotors of course). Nissan told me they would take care of the problem. They admitted they had a problem. Now I have 75000 miles an the brakes are warped again. They told me they was not going to warranty it anymore. I have contacted a lawyer an going ahead with the lemon law. It is really bad because I love the truck EXCEPT for the brakes.
