| Description of the problem | Rear end locked up and had to be replaced. Over the years, the rear seals would constantly leak and were replaced multiple times and was usually brought to my attention during oil changes/inspections. I guess they didnt catch it leaking and caused my rear end to lock up which was very dangerous and could have caused a major accident. I was heading to work around 4-5 am in the morning and all my lights on my truck came on kind of felt like i blew a tire and started pulling very hard. I was able to get off the road rather quickly and had it towed. I know plenty of people that have had this issues with the early model nissan titans. Besides that though i have been pleased with my titan. I have over 500k miles on it currently. Fyi this happened years back but i was reading a forum that we should try to get this recalled and it did cost me alot to have the rear end fixed. |
