Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN TITAN. ON THANKSGIVING EVENING MY FAMILY AND I WERE DRIVING HOME ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEARD A CLUNK AND LOST ACCELERATION. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY AND HAD TO CROSS 3 LANES TO TRY AND GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER. WE NEARLY GOT HIT BY MANY PASSING CARS DUE TO THE IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER AND SLOWING OF MY TRUCK. AFTER FINALLY TOWING THE TRUCK TO THE SHOP I FOUND OUT THAT, FOR THE SECOND TIME, THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WENT OUT. THE FIRST TIME WAS AT 75000 MILES AND THE SECOND AT 125000 MILES. BOTH TIMES I AM STUCK FOOTING THE BILL. NEEDLESS TO SAY MY ONLY MODE OF TRANSPORTATION IS STILL SITTING BROKEN UNTIL I AM ABLE TO PAY THE 3500 DOLLARS TO GET IT FIXED. *TR
