| (1) i have experienced the same problem with the seatbelts in the back seat of my 2011 nissan titan. they tighten up on the occupants and i have to stop my truck in order to release them, but then they tighten up again. a switch for adults or children may fix the problem. (2) as well, the front floor mats that were installed at the dealer malfunctioned. the driver's floor mat had one hole for restraint and it should have had two holes. the floor mat caught up in the accelerator at a speed of approximately 50 kph and the engine revved wide open. i had to immediately put the truck in neutral and shut it off. that left me with no power steering and i was fortunate enough to get the truck to the side of the highway and remedy the problem. the dealership has since replaced the front floor mats and the probem is solved. owners of the nissan titans should make sure that the proper floor mats are installed in their trucks prior to driving them. (3) these trucks should not be delivered with a p tire on them. at the very least they should have an lt tire. i have had three flat tires on my truck in 5 months and it is not used on construction sites at all. | |||

| 2006 nissan titan only 35,000 miles and both exhaust manifolds cracked and were leaking exhaust gases that could not be fed into catalytic converters..dealer replaced under emmissions warranty since exhaust manifold/catalytic converter are a solid 1 piece unit. they replaced with identical defective pieces that i am positive will crack like the original ones..please check online titan forums and you will see it is a very common problem with almost every titan..my local dealer says they automatically check every titan for this issue..i believe this should be a recall campaign because it is so common and not from driver error/abuse, and once any titan is out of the 8 year/80000 mile coverage it is a very expensive repair totalling over 2,000 dollars! most titan owners report a ticking sound from under the hood especially under cold start up-i didnt notice this on mine so i had no idea mine were cracked thats why i believe there should be a recall to inspect as many titans as possible for this emissions issue. | |||

| How can a major car company build a vehicle that has so many rust problems. my 1998 pathfinder has so many rust problems. the company has had recall on the front strut housing, filler gas tube. why can;t the company stand up and take care of all the rust problems. ever 1998 pathfinder has rust issues fenders rear quarter panels . if you paid $1000,00 for factory running boards they all have rusted off. why is it that the owners have to accept the problem with all these rust issues? this is my first and last nissan i will ever own. oh did i also tell you the transmission has been replaced, rear end makes noise,the distributer has been replaced filler tube, now the strut tower is rusting. is this even a safe vehicle to opperate on the road? | |||

| Exhaust manifold leaking for the second time. bank 1 side was bad before the 80 emissions warranty was up, however dealership wouldn't do it, so we purchased another oem manifold/cat and had another shop replace it. now 2 years later that side has failed and is leaking again. the catalytic converter has failed on that side also. nissan has not offered a recall. exhaust manifold leaking allows exhaust fumes to not be vented correctly and the fumes can come into the cabin of the vehicle. i have spoken with the dealership and it should be noted i'm out of the 80 k emissions warranty. the oem equipment is not up to par. | |||

| I own a 2005 nissan pathfinder and i have radiator and transmission failure! defective radiator causes engine coolant to leak into transmission which could fail at any time. driving at highway speed could and will cause dangerous situations. i must not be alone in this problem either, there are hundreds of complaints on this sight regarding this very issue! nissan needs to take responsibility for their design/manufacturing flaw. many conusmers who are not aware of this are at danger and other people on the road as well. nissan needs to recall this immediately!!! why does someone have to be killed or injured seriously before nhtsa or nissan gets involved. i guess money is the root of all evil! and nissan is more concerned about their profits than someones life! we as consumers need to do something about this! this has nothing to do with the wear and tear on our part, but nissan design department! | |||

| Hi,i'm writing to you because since day one in 2007 when i bought my 2007 nissan titan i have nothing but problems with it , first my front end of my truck kept on shacking every time the brakes where applied and i had told pine belt nissan the place i got the truck , that i been having these problems but yet these people still don't wanna bother with me at all , this truck is way to safe to even bother driving it anymore and i refused to pay all this money for a truck that i have got with less then 7,000 miles on it. i had bought all the extended warranties for this truck and it didn't do me any good because every time time i have a problem or question about something they are always looking to charge me for something i feel should be covered by my warranty. next problem was my headlights kept blowing out and yet they still couldn't do anything for me besides make me pay for new light bulbs over 3 times , i also had to buy wire hardness for my headlights because they said the lights got to hot and melted the wires? i don't even understand how any of this is my fault. next problem is i have told them that my front wheels seem to be shaking when ever im making a turn, next i noticed that my tires are starting to ware on evenly and these tires are pretty much new ??? now i get two recalls in the mail, one for my fuel gauge and the other for the lower control links ?? what's next ed . this truck is really a nightmare, i bought this truck because i thought it was newer and safe to go anywhere, wrong i don't even wanna drive this thing around the block not alone being forced to use this truck to get to and from work because this is my only car and i am not made out of money that's the reason why i bought a newer truck just so i didn't have any problems like these. i guess i was wrong. thanks a lot for your time and any help you could give me , i just don't know where or who else to go to . i just want my truck in 100% working condition like i was promised. | |||

| June 2, 2009 i had to have my 2006 nissan xterra to victory nissan in mechanicsville, va after being told by nissan's recall representative that my problem has not been classified as a recall. my fuel-line burst and spewed gas in my engine compartment. it cost me $310.58 to have it replaced. june 7, 2010 the fueline burst in the exact same place, this time spraying me in the face with gasoline when i raised the hood-luckily i was wearing eyeglasses. again i was told by nissan recall that there isn't a recall for this problem. the reason escapes me as this is very dangerous both with potential fire and physical injury. nobody has been hurt so far with this issue. in a separate incident, my fuel gauge that is a known hazard began acting erratically a couple of months ago, and i was told that xterras with my particular vehicle identification number do not fall under the current recall that nissan has on this issue. their reason for the recall is that the fuel gauge could read at 1/4 full but be empty and cause the vehicle to run out of gas in traffic and cause an accident. i guess my car will not run out of gas and cause crashes according to nissan, right? | |||

| My check engine light would come on and off along with the gas gage going crazy from empty to full. they replaced sensor after having to beg (cost would have been 700 dollars). this was just out of warranty. at about 50,000 miles my check engine light was on and they said they needed to replace a fuel sending sensor which cost me 300 dollars when when it was in for that i needed both u joints replaced because the steering wheel and car wobbled horribly when hitting about 50 miles an hour. this wobble was horrible and thought it was the tires.. then had to eplace two u joints ( second time since owning this 2006 pathfinder).. i wish nissan would step to the plate and recall the sensors and u joints.. its like everything happens just miles out of warranty. probably last nissan i will buy because of all the problems. | |||

| I purchased a 2009 nissan maxima on november 12th 2009, unknowingly that nissan issued a recall for the front suspension (recall summary nissan is recalling certain model year 2009 and 2010 altima and maxima passenger cars. the upper front strut insulators may have been manufactured out of specification resulting in a potential for the strut insulator to crack) i heard noises from the front area of the car and took it into the dealership, where the service department said they could not find a problem, i took the car back and the noise got worse, i took the car back to the dealer and was told they recalled the vehicle for a sound dampener, and was replaced. i took my family on a 2 hour road trip when my vehicle began to make serious noises, the car began to jerk and shake. i looked online and noticed a recall that was never brought to my attention, the recall states that if the strut insulator is cracked, there is a potential for the strut rod to come out of its mounting position, which could affect vehicle stability and increase the risk of a crash, i returned to the dealership and spoke with the sales manager and was told that if i felt that the car is unsafe then don't drive it!. i am paying for a car that is extremely dangerous and was sold this car after the recall and still has not been fixed. i believe that my family and i have been severely been put in harms way and have been lied to about a recall! i feel that the dealership had the duty to repair a crucial safety issue on a vehicle that was present on their lot. i have made three attempts to have the vehicle repaired and now fear for the saftey of my family. | |||

| On tuesday may 11th my 2003 nissan murano began to make a loud grinding noise which has been attributed to a crack in the transfer case. the murano has 113000 miles. this was not caused by an accident and happened without any rigorous use of the vehicle. my concern is the commonality of this failure and no action on the part of nissan. this is a major issue and can cause serious harm to the consumer. in doing research cost is expected to be over $3000. | |||

| I have a 2005 xterra sevice. fuel tank was not 1/4 tank and filled it up - had to stop at the store anyway so i gassed up. anyway, driving down the road, i looked down and my fuel gauge is on empty and the light on. interesting, i thought. then the check engine comes on later. i was thinking some kind of gas pocket or something so i got home and un did the gas cap, and disconnect the battery. engine light and fuel level still on and the unit is failure to read fuel gauge. | |||

| There is an ongoing failure of rear axle seals and bearings in our 2007 nissan titan. this results in the slip and brake light burning continuously as well as the rear axle leaking oil. we have had this replaced twice under warranty but it keeps happening. they were changed at 34,712 and 58,205 miles respectively. the lights are on and they are leaking again at 75,209 miles. there is a nissan technical bulletin on this problem with 2004-2007 titans. we contacted nissan and they will not cover a problem out of warranty though it is a manufacturers defect. it appears to us they put cheap repairs in while under warranty and now that the warranty has expired they want their customers to have to pay to fix their design flaw correctly. we have called nissan corporate about this problem and were given a case number and they were going to investigate and let us know if they could help. after several weeks we were told nissan would not help us resolve the problem. the leaking oil presents a danger when it gets on the brakes and makes it unsafe as well as they possibility of parts failure in the rear end. i have been on many titan forums on the internet and this is a very big problem. we are also sending this information to the attorney general of the state of west virginia. | |||

| 2008 m35 base front end alignment. when driving on uneven roads the front end of the car jumps, rattles and slips. it happens constantly and consistantly on uneven or freeways with the grooves (california) at 55 plus miles per hour. the steering is so harsh that the car has to slow down or move to more even road. the road does not have to be that uneven for the problem to occur. new tires and front end alignment only partially fix the problem. but the issue is still evident. on rainy days the problem is worse. | |||

| I have a 2007 nissan frontier, and the gas tank sensor failed like so many others from 2005 to 2010. i ran out of gas the first time and it stopped so suddenly i almost got rear ended. i called nissan and they said that my vin number doesn't fall in the recall list. i am on forums and everyone is having issues with this but they are only picking a few to fix. this is wrong. anyways now when i fill it up it goes to enpty and the light comes on and the check engine light lights. then after 30 or so miles it ever so slowly starts to climb until it is full. then for no reasonit will go empty again. it keeps going through this cycle. | |||
