Unknown - while driving my vehicle several warning lights started popping up all at onces the lights on the dash where glitching. Then all the power to my dash an possibly other parts of vehicle lost connection. Vehicle wouldn't even show speed or what gear I was in. While I was driving with 2 small children in the truck. I immediately pulled over. I have since taken my vehicle to a dealership where it's been for a couple weeks. They where unable to give me an exact diagnosis so my warranty won't cover repairs yet. I now have to tow my vehicle 96 miles to a different dealership in hopes of getting it fixed. My 2017 truck will not even start now!!

I was involved in a car accident where someone was hurt. I own a 2017 Nissan Titan xd with 75000 miles. I was taking a left turn at a yellow light, I slowed down and then tried to speed up. The accelerator will not respond for 3-4 seconds when I do this, it has been this way since I bought it. Looking online it is a common issue. However this time I could not move fast enough and an Audi slammed into my passenger side because I couldnt move. The kid in the Audi was injured and his car is totaled. Mine was repaired by my insurance. My airbags also failed to deploy. I have back problems and still have a really bad headache and have not seen a dr, but want to. I also noticed a smell or odor in the cabin. Looking at the forums, it is another issue with this truck and is a major health concern. I called Nissan and when I give them my VIN# they hang up on me. I finally got through after saying I might contact an attorney. They said they created a case #. I want to know if I have a case for a lawsuit and I really want a truck that wont kill me or cause bodily harm. I paid a ton of money for this vehicle and it is a complete safety and health hazard.

Bought truck new in 6/2018. Truck is new 2017 leftover Nissan Titan diesel xd with 16,000 miles to date. When truck goes into regen to clean diesel particulate heavy diesel exhaust fumes fill the cabin so bad you have to roll the windows down. It causes my stomach to become upset and dizzy tired feeling and later a very bad headache. Have had coworkers experience the same issue while in the vehicle.has been replicated at the dealer and service tech and service manager are out of ideas on how to fix this but confirm the issue exist. Dealer service manager has read about this but never has heard of a fix through Nissan. Nissan is sending in and engineer to look at the issue but comment made from service manager is he has heard about the situation through Nissan network but never has heard of a fix for it. Truck is still in warranty but not worth continuing to be sick or possibly pass out from it. Please be very aware of this issue and report any exhaust diesel smell to your dealer and elevate it. This is an extremely dangerous health and safety hazard. You should not smell any exhaust or diesel fumes in a vehicle. Hoping this site takes note of the many other folks on forums mentioning it and elevate it to Nissan. Hoping Nissan fixes or gives me my money back as the truck makes me feel sick.

Titan 8-cyl Diesel

  • 55,000 miles
The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Titan. While driving approximately 25 mph down a hill, the low pressure fuel sensor illuminated and the vehicle stalled. The contact restarted the vehicle and drove to tony Nissan (04-1299 ka uka blvd, waipahu, hi 96797). The dealer stated that due to the location of the fuel pump sensor, if there was less than a quarter of a tank of diesel fuel, the vehicle would stall. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 55,000.

The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Titan. While driving above 40 mph, the vehicle shuddered violently and became difficult to control. Also, the rpms reduced to approximately 40 mph before the vehicle began to operate normally.

The vehicle was repaired three times; however, the failure recurred after each repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 7,000.

Fuel tank whistles while filling. Also, this causes fuel to stop filling. And, at times, it causes fuel to spill onto side of truck and ground this could lead to a fire. This has happened several times, at different fueling locations.

I noticed an arching sound coming from underneath the truck. Upon inspection I noticed a bright white arc every 30-32 seconds coming from the fuel line to the top of the frame rail. After taking it to the dealer, Nissan came back and said that this was a "normal condition due to a static build up in the fuel system, no repair necessary". if this is normal why didn't my truck do it when I first bought it" also, if it is normal why don't they all do it" it will do this during all modes of operation and will even continue after the engine has been shut off if the ignition is turned back on.

Very soon after I purchased the Titan truck, randomly, while the car sits idle or while driving the truck anywhere (I.e. on city streets, on the highway, in my neighborhood) the truck produces a strong scent of diesel mixture/exhaust fumes in the cabin of the truck. The fumes are so strong it makes me dizzy. The diesel fumes/exhaust smell in the cabin when the def cycle is on as well. I've taken it to a Nissan dealership at least four times to no avail at repairing it. I bought this truck as a new car.
