What owners wrote

While backing my boat into its parking spot I put my vehicle in "park", left the driver's door open, left engine running and exited vehicle to unhitch my boat trailer from my truck trailer hitch. I was at the rear of the vehicle turning the trailer jack. I was behind the truck for approximately 45 seconds when I heard a click, and my vehicle started moving backwards. I realized what was happening--the gear shifted from park to reverse. I attempted to enter the driver's side,and opened door to hit the brake.

I have a 2004 nissan titan se. Two years ago my rear differential went. I paid $4000 to get it fixed at nissan of panama city cause they said it doesn't happen that often. I was just on titan talk and allot of guys are saying they had the same problem. If it was a problem could I get compensated from nissan.
