 Description of the problemFront right tire was wearing irregularly and was informed at tire store that wheel hub may be worn and causing the problem. Took the vehicle to the nissan dealership and not only was wheel bearing assembly identified as an issue but was informed that front differential needed replacement (front axel pulling out from front differential) at cost of $1755 (additional to the $373 to replace the front wheel hub assembly). The rear differential on this vehicle had already been replaced under warranty in april'08 (based on clicking noise while driving) which triggered me to research this defect on the internet and nhtsa web site and ask the dealer about other similar failures seen. I have found numerous issues with the front and rear differentials reported on both 2004 and 2005 titans due to what appears to be a faulty design that was later changed on the 2006 model year. I called nissan customer affairs to open a request for support and was informed based on years of service and mileage they would denied supporting this complaint, i escalated to the next level of management and was again denied any support. Clearly there is an issue with the differentials on the 2004 titan that needs to be investigated since this should not be considered normal wear and tear to replace both differentials on the same vehicle given normal highway passenger driving (no off road, no towing).
