| Description of the problem | 4x4 front differential pinion seal blew out while driving through a deadly snow blizzard to get home. This is the 2nd pinion seal on the front differential that's been replaced. The first was at about 40k miles and the second at around 68k miles. Front differential failures are becoming common in nissan titans and armadas, especially when used to drive home through snow storms when they're needed the most. Here's more details: http://www.
