Description of the problem | On november 2, 2016, i was driving my 2016 nissan titan xd (diesel) on a city street when the engine suddenly shut down on me. I was able to get the vehicle safely to the side of the road (loss of power steering and brakes). I had the vehicle towed to the dealership, where it remains to this day (november 30). The dealership, along with assistance from nissan, has not been able to repair or restart the vehicle to date. My understanding is the fuel has been tested and was determined to be clean diesel and problem free. The fuel rails were first replaced, with negative results. The high pressure fuel pump was then replaced, again with negative results. My last contact with the dealership was one week ago, and i was told the nissan engineer's felt the fuel system/engine was not getting "primed" and they were going to look into that system. Still,, the vehicle remains at the dealership and they have not been able to start then vehicle or correct the problem. I am concerned other owners of this type of vehicle may or may already have experienced similar issues. This is obviously a safety issue that needs to be checked because it could result in a severe accident resulting in injury, loss of life and/or property damage. |
