I have a '05 CC Titan. At 300 miles, I changed the pads to ceramics cause I couldn't stand the amount of crud that the stock pads left. I may have stumbled onto something as I have never had a brake issue other than the rear pads going south at 24K miles and the dealer wanting to charge me for a regular maintenance item.

I don't own a Titan, but didn't Nissan re-engineer the front brake system in the Titan? As I recall, problems like yours were common, so they worked a TSB. It *may* be NTB04066. It doesn't mean that the fix is warranted, but if it involves new rotors and calipers, you may be able to work the fix at home. Just a thought. Good luck -- I'd be upset too.

The brakes were fixed via a TSB. My ’05s warped after 1,500 miles, but after the TSB they never warped again, even after towing. In ’08.5 MY, Nissan beefed up the suspension and brakes big time with larger calipers and huge rotors. I haven’t had any problems on my ’09 and the brakes are solid!

When you say "my peddle is worse now that before" - can you give a little more detail - be as specific as possible - is it that you push down further to get braking power?
Sounds to me like it needs another bleeding but tell me more specific details about how it brakes
thanks

Fog light question

I'm the proud owner of a new 2009 Crew Cab SE Frontier. Now I've found out that Nissan will not sell the driving (fog) lights as an accessory. Looking at a Toyota Tacoma, the lights look identical to the ones I saw on the top of the line Frontier. Would Toyota fog lights fit on my Frontier?

2002 Nissan Frontier rear shakes

I have a '02 Frontier Desertrunner kingcab. The bed shakes bad on uneven roads. I had the propeller, u-joints, and carrier bearing checked already and was told everything was ok. A mechanic said that this was common with frontiers. Is that true?
And has someone encountered and been able to solve the problem or at least minimize the shaking/vibration? I'd appreciate any info or suggestions.
Thanks.
