| Description of the problem | I leased a titan crew le on tax day 2004. At 5000 miles, the front rotors were shot and the steering wheel shook violently upon braking on the freeway. The truck would also pull one direction or another upon braking. The dealership (kayser nissan) fixed the problem. At 10,000 miles, the same problem. The dealership this time said they couldn't replace the rotors but shaved them down and replaced the sliders. At 15,000 miles, the problem has returned. I've tried another dealership in town with a better reputation for customer service and they haven't been able to get parts for over 3 weeks. In the mean time, my kids have to drive in an unsafe vehicle. I tow nothing with this truck. *jb |
