Rear axles leaking fluid on the 2006 Nissan Titan crew cab. Dealer states that axle seals have failed. Dealer also suggests new axles to be installed rather than replacing seals. Vehicle has never been used to tow a load nor was it used offroad. No aftermarket parts have been installed.
The hub seals on my 2006 Nissan Titan have failed.. and are leaking fluid. In my online research it appears to be a issue that returns due to a axle ventilation issue. I have contacted Nissan usa and they have not provided a resolution or reply as the dealer says the entire axle now requires replacement. Titantalk.com has several reports from other owners experiencing the same issue. Please investigate. My truck presently has 70900 miles on it and was purchased in August of 2008 with 58000. The driver use is under 6K miles per year so this appears to be greater concern.
06 Nissan Titan 4X4 rear end failure. There was a clicking from the driver side rear on my way home from a vacation, a few miles down the road I stopped at a stoplight. When I began to accelerate there was a pop and I lost all power to the rear end. My axle somehow snapped almost dislodging it from the vehicle and now the dealership tells me I need to pay for an entire new rear end. This truck was never abused and saw mild offroad usage. I am very concerned as I could have lost my rear wheel while traveling down the highway at high speeds. This is not the only incident of Nissan Titan owners that I have heard. I believe it is becoming a serious issue.
I have noticed my rear axle seals leaking for a while and was told by the dealership that it was not an issue. I have now recently noticed when I use my emergency brake and rear brakes they have been affected by the leaking fluid. I was wondering if this is an issue they should address, or is it just regular maintenance. I have been reading forum complaints about people with the same truck and they have also experienced this problem low in mile. My truck is a 2006 Nissan Titan SE crew cab 4WD. I have noticed the seals leaking since about 40K miles and now have around 56K.
I have a 2006 Nissan Titan pickup that has had the rear axle seals replaced two times and had it in for a third time and was told it was residual oil from the previous repair and nsent on my awy wewll it was leaking again and now has to go back for a fourth time in about 3000 miles. The truck has only 28000 miles on it. This leak has the potential to get gear oil all over the rear disc brakes causing poor braking, also if the rear end siezed up from lack of oil it could cause you to go out of control.
The engine accelerates on its own after lifting the accelerator for one to five seconds. This occurs regularly and has caused two vehicle to object accidents. This occurs in traffic, slow speeds, high speeds, forward, reverse, and is easily recreated. Dealer tech could not find anything wrong that would cause this issue.
The ipdm relay in my truck is messed up, it began with having a transmission issue that caused my truck to basically not be able to gain any speed on the highway. I took the truck to the dealership, they said it was the ipdm issue and they would try to fix it. Other Titan owners have had their trucks shut completely off while running down the highway because of the failure of the ipdm, Nissan knows of the issue has no parts to fix the issue, and will not help us out.
I noticed oil leaking from the transfer case. Brought the truck to santa monica Nissan for inspection. Dealership verified the transfer case, left and right rear axle seals leaking. Dealership is replacing parts to correct the failure. This is an ongoing failure for all year model Nissan Titans.
I have a 2006 Nissan Titan 4WD. Last year, after a long trip, I took it to get an oil change, and the mechanic told me the rear axel was leaking. This was in July of 2008, and the vehicle had 48,813 miles on it. I got it fixed. Then 11 months later, again after a long trip, the same thing happened. This was in June of 2009, and the vehicle had 63,914 miles on it. I went online to see if anyone else was having this problem, and apparently it is an ongoing problem that is happening to a large number of Nissan Titan owners. Some are reporting that the oil is leaking onto the rear brakes, causing them to fail. I have not noticed this yet, but each time I caught my leak early. I have also read that the 2008 Titan has a new rear axel design that has addressed this issue. Obviously, Nissan is aware of the problem, because they have already addressed the issue in the later models. This is a very dangerous problem, and Nissan should recall the earlier models to rectify the situation.
Right rear axle seal blew out and leaked differential fluid. Differential fluid leaking on rear brake rotors which could cause brake failure, which was a major safety concern to me. At time of failure at 8000 miles no suspension modifications had been done to vehicle. Also, the rear differential oil will slowly leak and cause the rear differential to lose fluid and fail. Nissan replaced spacer axle (43070-7S200), bearing (40210-7S210), and seal (43252-7S200). As this seemed to be a very common problem with the Nissan Titan, Nissan should address this issue and offer a permanent fix so would not be faced with the safety issue in the future.
Took truck in for maintenance. Auto care provider notified me that the rear axle seal has been leaking. Have not fixed as of yet but plan to within the next few weeks.
