Description of the problem	Last week, i drove 6 hours to start vacation with my family, august 2014, when i noticed that my nissan truck would intermittently start to shake slightly and also made a noise like a "jake brake" does on a tractor trailer truck. This occurred when i was either driving 20 mph up to 65 mph. I arrived at my vacation location 6 hours from my home and took my nissan titan to a nissan dealership first thing the next morning. After the mechanic diagnosed my problem, the service advisor called me and said my rear end differential was going out and needed to be replaced. As i was driving down, i knew i had a problem and could not drive my truck back home until this was repaired. Since car dealerships do not repair car parts anymore these days, they told me that the rear end differential would cost $3,200. 00 plus labor. The total repair came to $3900. 00. Ouch! It took the dealership 5 days to get the new rear end differential delivered from a nissan parts house in the northeastern us and replaced since they did not have it locally. My issue is this..... I have never owned a vehicle that had to have the rear end differential replaced at 79,000 miles, nor have any of my friends had this happen to them either! I even called nissan corporate and they did not offer me any financial assistance either which tells me they don't really stand by their product!!! I understand if it were a water pump, radiator, brakes, tires, etc. But not a major component that should not go bad at 79,000 miles. One more thing in closing, i have never used a trailer to haul anything either with my nissan titan pick up truck.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
