| Description of the problem | Axle leaked on left rear wheel. Lubricant leaked on rear brakes. I have a concern that lubricant leak presented a danger with both the standard brake and emergency brake when saturated with leaking lubricant. The working surface of brakes shouldn't be lubricated. I have grave concern that this problem was a design flaw with nissan titan trucks and the problem, with the inherent danger, will persist for the useful life of the truck.*ak |
