| Description of the problem | Ever since i bought my titan (3-3-06) i noticed a whining noise at speed when i let off of the gas. I always thought it was tire noise. Well on november 15, 2006 i noticed a real bad grinding/whining noise when i decelerated. There was only 6900 miles on the truck. I took the truck to the dealership and a mechanic rode with me up the street and back and said that my truck had problems. I left the truck at the dealership overnight and they replaced the entire rear end. The mechanic said that my truck had problems before i even bought it and that the whining noise i always heard was the rear end and not the tires. *nm |
