| Description of the problem | I have a 2005 nissan titan se 4x4 off road edition. While going around a conner i heard a loud poping noise. I stopped the truck and looked under it. I noticed fluid coming from the right rear of the vehicle. I took it to nissan and they inspected it. They told me it was the right rear wheel bearing. I asked them to fix it. They put in a new part but that did not fix the problem. They did not charge me for that work. I then talked to the shop foreman of nissan and he told me that it was a dowl pin coming loose between the spider gears without pulling the cover off or anything. He said that the rear ends fail a dime a dozen with models 2004-2007. I asked how much it would be to fix it and i was told 3200 dollars. If nissan has know about this problem for some time i think that nissan needs to stand behind their product and actually issue a recall before someone gets hurt. I have the truck in storage right now due to the military, but i will eventually have to come out of pocket and get it repaired. |
