| Description of the problem | Purchased a 2004 nissan titan in april 2010 with 82k on the engine. In may 2010, i brought the truck in for a recall. The vehicle had 82,528 miles on it. The dealer discovered that both exhaust manifolds were leaking and quoted my $1800. 00 for the repair. I now smell a strong odor of exhaust fumes coming into the cab. The fumes cause nausea and headaches. I have contacted nissan and they refuse to fix the problem. I have researched this topic online and found this to be a very common defect among 2004 thru 2007 nissan titans. There has yet to be a recall for this issue. I continually see people reporting this issue on internet forums. This is a known defective part. The leak is also hazardous to the environment. I have reported this issue to the epa as well. |
