What owners wrote
A few complaints as filed, shortened and with personal details removed. The first ones are among the most serious reports for this model year; the rest are typical.
Traveling at approximately 30-35 MPH, early morning, dry conditions. I set the cruise control, because I was having severe stomach pain. I leaned my head back and next thing I must have passed out. I awoke after striking a telephone pole on the opposite side of the street. The impact was dead center. The license plate is the exact shape of the pole, infact the sensor is directly behind and under the bumper from the plate. The seatbelt did not lock and the airbags neither one didn't deploy.
I bought a 07 nissan titan in july of 07. Right away I found that the controls on the steering wheel were not working. Including the air bag. I had it fixed right away. Then it happened again in dec 08. I once again had the problem fixed. I was in a head on collision on jan, 23 at 8:30 pm. I was going 45 miles an hour and hit a cement and medal signal pole. The impact was in the center on the truck. My seatbelt did not lock and my air bag did not deploy.
My nissan titan shakes at the speed of 45 to 55 MPH. It's been to the shop several times, they say it is the characteristics of the nissan titan, no accidents , nothing, just shaking!
My pickup truck's tailpipe, muffler, and their associates accessories were all rusted from inside out and were falling off of the underside of the truck. All those parts had to be replaced.
