“Our 2009 Nissan Titan was involved in a roll over accident and no air bags deployed. The driver side air bags did NOT deployed at all. My son ended up with a broken collarbone, fractured back rib and possibly humorous fracture on muscle injuries the accident. My insurance company has inspected the vehicle and has possession of it at a salvage yard. There were no indications that there was something wrong with the air bags or the air bag sensors.”Owner report · Air Bags · Jun 2023

“While driving down the mountain I attempted to brake. The brake pedal had to be pushed entirely to floor to engage. It was difficult to get the truck to slow down. Luckily after several attempts were made I was able to get the truck to stop. I took the truck to nissan to be evaluated. They stated it was a failure of the ABS actuator and said they looked it up and there were no recalls at this time. The failure of this part could have cost me my life.”Owner report · Service Brakes · Jan 2019

“My titan has only 34617 miles on it and the power steering unit went bad and also sent metal shavings into the rack and pinion steering. I have to pay nissan $1200.00 dollars to fix the power steering unit and try to flush out the metal shavings.if they can't flush out the system add another $2500.00 to replace the rack and pinion steering on my truck. $4000.00 to fix my truck with less than 35000 miles on it. This should not happen to a vehicle with low miles and has been well maintained and pampered since I bought it.I take very good care of this truck and nissan should have to foot this bill! Help!!!!”Owner report · Steering · Apr 2018

“Part number 25060-zq60d had to be replaced on my vehicle. Noticed that a cancelled recall on this vehicle had replaced a 25060-zq60b. Same description happened with my vehicle. I was driving and gas gauge was reading a 1/4 tank of gas. The vehicle shutdown while in motion on the highway because of no gas in fuel tank. I made a complaint with nissan and was told since the recall was cancelled that there was nothing they can do to reimburse me.”Owner report · Fuel/Propulsion System · Nov 2017
