| Description of the problem | Two differential failures within 60,000 miles on my 200 nissan titan. Both failure involved wheel seal leaking and loud noises from the differential. My third differential installed by nissan is the same nissan stock number so i expect a failure within a few thousand miles. If i don't trade my titan in before the 12,000 mile warranty on the new differential is up, i will have to pay the $ 3000 + to replace it. I see new stock numbers on the new 2007 models but nissan refused to give me one of those unless i paid for it. Bet you can figure that one out. Nissan needs to extend the warranty on these differentials. *jb |
