This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The truck has a broken crankshaft with only 80 thousand miles on it an when it happen was driving an lost all power to everything including the power steering witch pulled me off the road without control an insurance will not cover because the same thing has happen too many other titans I added the only email the would send to us below they are trying to hide the fact they sold defective crankshafts in trucks an it coast as much to fix it as it does to buy a whole truck
The vehicle is vibrating on low speed and went turning making a loud ban I open the hood to check this out D found the steering column separating in the engine bay the truck been to the dealer all the time and every 3 month has I have to do a wheel alignment cause it pulls to the left and the dealer told me that normal cause it's a working truck but I dont use it for work only has 20401 miles
I bought this truck new. I have a clunking and looseness in the steering. It started around 14,000 miles. I have had it to the Nissan dealer 3 times for this. The last time the mechanic road with me at 20430 miles and he acknowledged the problem. Two days later when I picked up the truck, the service writer told me it was a normal characteristic for the truck to clunk and be loose. I then made a customer complaint to Nissan corporate. They told me it was normal to be loose, and clunk. While driving in less than perfect conditions 6/28/2019 interstate 40 going through the mountains it almost caused me to wreck. I was pulling a 20 foot gooseneck trailer totaling about 6,000 pounds. I had the cruise set at 45 mph. I have not had a ticket in 25 years. This extra weight and the curvy rough roads caused the loose driving to be a real problem. It is dangerous. There are many post also on the Titan xd forum about this problem. I am not the only one.
Traveling at 25-30 mph on a dry, grass covered road, applied the brakes to slow down, no braking occurred; I then pushed on the brakes as hard as I could, I felt the ABS pulsating, began to hear a "clunking" sound and feel a clicking in my brake pedal matching the timing of the clunking sound. Since the brakes were not responding I then turned the wheel to the left attempting to turn the truck, it did not respond; I then turned the steering wheel to the right, no response. The truck continued straight into a tree, head on collision. Not watching the speed I assume I was doing 20-25mph when the truck hit the tree, no airbags deployed. After the collision, when preparing for the tow, it was observed the drive shaft was disconnected at mid-way of the truck, not snapped, just off. This seemed a strange result with a head-on collision; the tow driver made the same observation.
The vehicle started exhibiting very loose steering behavior and a "clunking" noise from the front end. The steering wheel has play from 45deg turned to the left to 45deg turned to the right without affecting the direction of travel. The stability control would attempt to keep the vehicle moving in a straight line when turned to the left or right, regardless of speed (<25mph - 70mph) on dry, warm roads. When the stability control attempted to keep the vehicle moving straight through a turn, it was necessary to quickly apply the brakes to keep the vehicle from leaving the road surface. The vehicle in question had between 1500 and 2500 miles during this time.
