Consumer Description

MY ENTIRE REAR AXLE HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 31,500 MILES ON MY NISSAN TITAN. IT STARTED HOWLING AND SMOKING WHEN DRIVING TO MOAB. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ENTIRE REAR AXLE. THANKFULLY I WAS NOT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN THE REAR END FAILED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE HAS HAD 4 SETS OF BRAKES/ROTORS/CALIPERS ON THE VEHICLE AND IS STARTING TO EXHIBIT SIGNS OF NEEDING THE FIX AGAIN. *JB
