| Description of the problem | Driving cross country in nissan titan. Truck floor got hot at one point. Later truck sputtered and shut itself down. I let it cool down and it drove fine for a while. Next day all of us in the car were a little sick and nauseated. Car drove fine the rest of the trip and it wasn't until after we arrived at our destination that the check engine warning light came up. Looked up the codes which were that the catalytic converters had loss efficiency. I took it to the deal for a complete diagnosis. Dealer confirmed all 4 cat converters were dead and it probably caused by a leak in the exhaust manifolds. Further research shows that nissan titans have a history of cracks in the exhaust manifold. This not only ruins the cat converters but exhaust fumes leak into the cabin causing a health risk. This is a known issue and i have contacted nissan about this but have not heard back from them yet. |
