2007 Nissan Titan Suspension Problems

Owner-reported complaints naming the suspension system, filed with NHTSA

Data refreshed

Suspension reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

I DROVE MY NISSAN OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, IT STARTED SLIPPING, GRINDING. THE TRANSMISSION FLUID CHECK LIGHT WOULD NOT COME ON AT ALL, EVER SINCE I HAD IT. TURNS OUT TRANSMISSION FLUID TANK EMPTY. I WAS ON MAJOR HIGHWAY, COULD GO 40 MILES AN HOUR, JERKED OUT OF GEAR WITH TRAFFIC BEHIND ME. HAD TOW IT TO TRANSMISSION SHOP AND TRANSMISSION BURNED OUT. FAULTY TRANSMISSION LIGHT FAILED TO WARN ME OF PROBLEMS. NISSAN OWNERS MANUAL DOES NOT INSTRUCT YOU TO CHECK TRANSMISSION FLUID. IT DIRECTS YOU TO DEALERSHIP. HAD NO WARNING LIGHT TO ALERT ME. COULD HAVE GOTTEN KILLED. *TR

THE TRUCK HAS STARTED TO SHAKE VERY BADLY WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKES. SOMETIMES I HAVE TO STRUGGLE TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT WHEN BRAKING.VERY CONCERNED THAT I WILL BE IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN AND SAID IT WAS MY PROBLEM TO DEAL WITH SINCE MY TRUCK IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS IS KNOWN AS "BRAKE JUDDER" TO TITAN OWNERS. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND FOUND NUMEROUS TITANS WITH THIS ISSUE. *TR

I OWN A 2007 NISSAN TITAN. WHEN I DRIVE THE VEHICLE, THE STEERING WHEEL FEELS LIKE IT IS SLIPPING. IT DOESN'T FEEL STABLE EVEN WHEN I AM GOING STRAIGHT. I'M SURE ITS NOT THE ALIGNMENT BUT HAS TO DO WITH THE SUSPENSION. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING CONTROLS BEFORE BECAUSE LAST SPRING DURING THE RAINING SEASON MY VEHICLE SLIPPED OUT OF CONTROL WHEN I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT WITH THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE ON GOING ABOUT 40 MPH ON THE 15 FREEWAY. I FELT DURING THAT TIME IT WAS THE RAIN THAT CAUSED ME TO SLIP BUT AFTER THAT INCIDENT IT HAS GRADUALLY GOTTEN WORSE. I HAVE ASK NISSAN TO TAKE A LOOK BUT THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME $130 JUST FOR AN INSPECTION. MY VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS NOR ANY REPAIR WAS DONE TO THE VEHICLE SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED IT. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A VERY BIG SAFETY ISSUE AND THAT IT ENDANGERS THE LIFE OF MY FAMILY AND ALSO THE PUBLIC. *TR
