| Description of the problem | I have a 2004 nissan titan and have had it for about 4 years. There is 51000 miles on it and around 22,000 miles i put a lift on it. Everything was fine with the truck until i got around the 35,000 mile range. When i would drive the truck i would notice loud noises coming from the front end. I took it to my nissan dealership 2 or 3 times and they said that everything was fine and that it was just my suspension that was making the noise. Now it has been about 15,000 miles later and i noticed a leak coming from around the front axle so i took it back and they told me that my front differential needed to be replaced. They told me that it would cost $2300 to fix it. They also told me that they see this problem alot with nissan titans. When i got home i did a little research and found close to 100 people that had the same problem. I feel that nissan should be the one to take care of the problem. |
