NHTSA Complaint #10145954 — 2004 NISSAN TITAN

NUMEROUS PROBLEMS HAVE ARISEN WITH MY LEASED 2004 NISSAN TITAN KING CAB. INCLUDING SERIOUS VIBRATION PROBLEMS THAT OCCURRED UPON BRAKING TO THE POINT THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED UNTIL THE DEALER FINALLY AGREED TO AT LEAST 'TURN' THE ROTORS. EVENTUALLY BRAKES WERE REPLACED BY DEALER 6 MONTHS AFTER THE INITIAL PROBLEM. CURRENTLY FACING PROBLEMS INCLUDING A NOISE AT STARTUP THAT EVERYONE CAN HEAR EXCEPT THE DEALER MECHANICS, AN OVERFLOW PROBLEM WITH GAS TANK EVEN THOUGH JUST A FEW LITERS HAVE BEEN PUT IN AN EMPTY TANK. ADDITIONALLY MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH DRIVER SIDE DOOR REFUSING TO OPEN FROM BOTH THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE. DEALER HAS REALIGNED DOOR NUMEROUS TIMES BUT PROBLEM CONTINUES. DEALER STATES THE DOOR PROBLEM IS DUE TO A POOR DESIGN WITH A HEAVY DOOR ON INADEQUATE HINGES. OCCASIONALLY HAVE HAD TO DRIVE WHILE HOLDING DOOR CLOSED. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONSIDERING WEIGHT OF DOOR. THIS TRUCK IS BARELY ONE YEAR OLD AND PROBLEMS JUST KEEP PILING UP WITH LITTLE DEALER SUPPORT OFFERED.*JB
