The contact owns a 2004 Nissan Titan. While the vehicle was stationary, the driver and passenger side seat belts failed to retract when prompted. The contact also stated that the vehicle stalled without warning on numerous occasions while stationary and while driving various speeds. In addition, while driving 70 mph, the control panel became inoperative and completely lost power. The contact stated that the failures were intermittent and became progressively worse since 2011. A dealer and the manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.
On 6/20/2008 I went to a Nissan dealership to resolve a recall item to replace rear door wiring harness, recall # R0616. The recall was performed and in the process the dealership also replaced LH-pretensioner, seatbelt and body harness, and reset airbag warning light. On 6/03/2013, the airbag warning light came on and I went to a nearby Nissan dealership and was advised that I would have to replace the LH-pretensioner, seatbelt and body harness, I informed the service advisor that this work was already accomplished once and that I had the documents if he needed them. The service advisor then stated that since the work was accomplished five years ago that even though the parts are a safety item that they were no longer under warranty, resulting in a $574.30 charge of which I paid. My contention is that this is a safety item, and thus should not have a warranty restriction, I am not sure if the truck is even safe to drive.
I received a recall notice in the mail this week: Recall 06V-459 about the airbag warning light flashing, seat belts not working properly, etc. My vehicle is having all of the problems listed so as instructed I brought my vehicle to the Nissan dealership along with the letter. They informed me that they would not fix the problem because it "was not in their system". stating they do not understand why I got a notice in the mail. Clearly my vehicle is having these exact problems and they are required to fix them, but they still refused to fix or diagnose for free as required by law. Very disappointing in Nissan for disregarding my family's safety...updated 08-07-13

The contact owns a 2004 Nissan Titan. The contact has experienced several failures with the vehicle since the date it was purchased. While driving various speeds and applying pressure to the brakes, the vehicle vibrated and the braking power was lost. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and they stated that the rotors failed. The vehicle was repaired. The entire braking system (rotors and brake pads) have been replaced three times since the original failure date. When adults use the rear seat safety belts, they become tighter as the vehicle is being operated. The seat belts cause a great amount of pressure to the neck and chest area and have to be released and reconnected for safety. The contact is in the process of notifying the manufacturer. The failure mileage was 8,000 and current mileage was 38,000.

- the contact stated that all passenger seat belts on the 2004 Nissan Titan intermittently go to the child restraint mode when being used by in the adult passenger mode. The passenger must remove the seat belt, return it to the retracted position, and reconnect the seat belt. It happened most often on a bumpy road surface at 20 mph. Updated 03/02/07.
Since purchasing my truck in August of 2004 I have experienced several brake related issues. I've taken the truck to the same dealer for service on each failure/issue. The break issues experienced have been brake lights turning on, brakes shuddering, the truck not braking properly, brakes not working until the pedal was almost completely pressed. Recently the truck failed to stop resulting in a rear end collision. The dealer has replaced/resurfaced rotors, brake pads and replaced sensors during the past year and a half. However, I continue to experience issue after issue regarding the brakes. I have had other defects as well, but the brake issues have been the primary issue.
All passenger seat belts intermittently go to the child restraint mode when being used by in the normal passenger mode. The passenger must remove the seat belt, return it to the retracted position, and reconnect the seat belt. It appears to happen most often on a bumpy surface. This is a dangerous practice. Some vehicle owners will surely disable the child safety function. Others will endanger their passengers by having them remove the seat belts while the vehicle is in operation.
