I have a 2005 Nissan Titan with 31,000 miles on it and it just failed a vehicle inspection, because the frame was rusted through in front of the rear wheels. I have owned the vehicle 10 years and 6 months and this seems very premature to have happen. Otherwise the body looks brand new.

2005 Nissan Titan. Door latch failure during cold weather below freezing. Live in pa, so time period of this weather is December - March. Door will not open, nor close properly from inside, or outside of vehicle. Had this problem last week, was not able to get back into vehicle for 10min. Yesterday driving on a highway door opened unexpectedly and passenger nearly fell out of vehicle. No one injured, however you can imagine the experience at highway speeds. I must drive the vehicle with a ratchet strap from one door to the other to keep them shut. This is not safe but the only way to fix the issue at this time. There is a Nissan tsb that they will replace door locking mechanism if vehicle is under warranty. Nissan usa: Tbns bx56aa / tsb 05118. However if vehicle is not under warranty they quoted me at $400+ per door X's 4 doors. This is unreasonable and a severe safety hazard for most of the country that experiences weather below 32degrees F. it is a known failure that Nissan usa knows about. This should be a mandated recall. There will be severe lawsuits filed if another passenger, my child, or myself cannot get into a vehicle, or unexpectedly falls out. Below are links to a Nissan Titan online forum with multiple other complaints about this. Frozen door latch problem not solved...please advise winter problems with Titan from usa frozen door handles frozen doors wont close when cold!! Nissan new tsb for the frozen door handles!

After a freeze during the night, I went to open the driver side door. The door latch cable snapped the first time I tried it. This now poses a hazard if in the case of an emergency I cannot open the driver's door.
