| Description of the problem | Rear axle seals leaking on 2007 nissan titan 4wd pickup with 23,500 miles. Rear axle grease was leaking onto wheel and rear brake disk... Potentially causing a failure of the brakes to stop adequately, had i not found the leak as quickly as i did. I understand that this is a frequent failure on the nissan titan. Nissan replaced the seals under warranty with identical seals. I did not keep the old parts. Here is one link to a forum that is tracking axle seal failures among its members: http://www. Titantalk. Com/forums/titan-engine-transmission-drivetrain/42837-rear-axle-seals-leaks-please-report. Html there appears to be 350 nissan titan rear axle seal failures reported on this one website alone since august of 2008. |
