 Description of the problemSept 27 2010 traveling home from w. V from camping. We was on i - 77 s bound at mile maker 10 in fancy gap. We smelled something funny. I looked at my right mirror and saw white gray smoke coming out of the back of my 2004 nissan titan truck. I pulled over and when i put my foot on the brake i had none, due from the heat of the fire, i got out and saw my drivers side under the fender on fire. I had transmission fluid everywhere. Transmission fluid had sprayed on the manifold and caught fire, then the gas line ruptured. I had a transmission fluid and gas fire. Thank god i had a fire extinguisher as well as another man stop to help put it out, it took two fire extinguisher to put the fire out, one wasn't enough. We could have been killed but i was told that the reason why my truck didn't blow up was because i had a full tank of gas. Well i took my truck into nissan and they told me that i had a rupture in my transmission line and that it was a defective, faulty line. I find out later that they had a technical bulletin out on the 2004-2005 armada and titan dated aug 1 2005. I had my truck in for a transmission flush 45 days before this happened and no one told me about the bulletin. No one asked me if i would like to replace my lines and clamps. I didn't know anything about this bulletin until wednesday night when i did research. If they had told me about this, this could have been prevented. Nissan knows about this and i am trying to work with them. I hope they do the right thing about fixing my truck and paying my tow bills. The weird thing is i tried to get the va state troop to do a report and he said they don't do that anymore.
