| Description of the problem | 1. There were no know events apparent before the failure. 2. Rear axle seal has failed on my 2005 nissan titan le 4x4 at 57,000 miles. Axle lube is everywhere on drivers side rim, tire and brake components. There is also noticeable blow by on the tailgate and i'm sure lube has been dissipated to vehicles that have been behind me on the highway. This will lead to a failure of brake effectiveness and vision issues with following vehicles. 3. I am in the process of getting the truck in the shop to fix the problem. |
