I am an attorney, the air bags on my client's 2004 nissan sentra deployed without notice causing my client to crash into 2 other vehicles, nissan wants to send someone to take the computer out of the vehicle, we are requesting that DOT send someone to retrieve the computer and to investigate .
While backing my boat into its parking spot, I put the vehicle in park. With the engine still running, I got out of the vehicle to unhook the boat trailer from the tow vehicle, leaving the driver's door open. As I turned the trailer jack to lift boat trailer from the trailer hitch of the titan truck, which is the tow vehicle, it jumped out of park into reverse, and started traveling backwards. As I attempted to enter the truck and press the brake, the tree next to the vehicle caught the driver door.
The ABS brake system on the 2004 nissan titan se 4wd pickups have all failed in every vehicle I have been able to track- at least 3 times. I am now in for a 3rd replacement of the rotars on the back brakes. My pads on the front have worn 3 times with only 18000 miles on the truck. I believe if you do a survey of the dealers' service deopartments, you will find that the titans have all been brought back for these reasons. This should be reported and a recall sent out as this is a safety hazard at best.
I will be on my 5th brake job shortly and I am still awaiting rotors, pads, calipers for the front as well as the rear. It seems that nissian north america should be required to fix all of it's vehicle's problems since they stated they have corrected it on the 2005 and noe the 2006 nissian titan trucks.
We bought a nissan armada on june 1, 2004, that had factory-installed continental tires. Since that time, we have had six flat tires. We spoke to a tire salesman who said that they are one-ply tires and unsuited for our vehicle. We have since bought a set of goodyear tires and have had no flats.
