2004 Nissan Armada

THREE MONTHS AGO, THE DIFFERENTIAL IN MY 2004 NISSAN ARMADA NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC SAID THAT BOLTS WERE MISSING FROM THE AXLE AND HE WAS VERY PERPLEXED AS TO WHY THAT WOULD BE. THE DIFFERENTIAL WAS REPAIRED BUT 3 MONTHS LATER THE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE DIDN'T WORK AND THE AXLE HAD TO BE REPLACED. HE CALLED THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THIS WAS EXTREMELY COMMON IN ALL OF THE NISSAN ARMADAS. THEY EVEN STOCKED THE FRONT AXLES BECAUSE THEY GO THROUGH SO MANY OF THEM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 NISSAN ARMADA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS HE EXPERIENCED UNWANTED ABS ACTIVATION. THE DEALER AND A TECHNICIAN STATED THAT HE NEEDED TO REPROGRAM HIS ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE. THE CONTACT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING $125.00 FOR THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER DIDN'T PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE WITH THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 NISSAN ARMADA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE AIR BAGS SUDDENLY DEPLOYED WITHOUT AN IMPACT OR CRASH. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY KEPT IT FOR THREE WEEKS. AT THE END OF THE THREE WEEKS, HE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM THE DEALER STATING THAT THE COMPUTER THAT DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE INDICATED THAT IT HAD BEEN IN A ROLLOVER CRASH. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK AND CALLED THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THEY INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND STATED THAT THE AIR BAG DEFECT HAD BEEN A MANUFACTURER ISSUE AND WAS NOT DUE TO A ROLLOVER CRASH. THE FAILURE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 55,532.

I OWN A 2004 ARMADA I BEEN HAVING MANY PROBLEMS WITH BRAKES IT HAPPENS A FEW TIMES DRIVING THE CAR STARTS TO FEEL SO HEAVY Y SLOWING DOWN SO I STOPPED AND THE FRONT BRAKES WHERE SO SO HOT AND SMELLING BURN WITH SMOG SO AFTER THAT HAPPENS TO ME LIKE 4 TIMES THIS PAST MONDAY THE CALIPER FELL OFF AND THE DEALER PEOPLE SAID THE RECALL IS NOT FOR THIS TRUCK? *TR

MY WIFE HAS A 2004 NISSAN ARMADA AND I HAVE A 2004 NISSAN TITAN. BOTH VEHICLES HAVE HAD A TOTAL FAILURE OF THE ABS SYSTEM TWICE IN THE LAST MONTH. THE SYMPTOMS ARE A GRINDING NOISE FORM THE BRAKES, THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT ON, AND INEFFICIENT STOPPING POWER NO MATTER THE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE EXERTED ON THE PEDAL. AFTER SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE AND RESTARTING, THE SYMPTOMS DISAPPEAR. THE COMPUTER DOES NOT RECORD ANY FAILURE CODE AND THE DEALER EXPLAINED THAT NISSAN HAS A TECHNICAL BULLETIN THAT SPECIFIES TO REPROGRAM THE VEHICLE COMPUTER BUT IT DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE PROBLEM WILL NOT RECUR. NEITHER IS THIS PROCEDURE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY OF THE VEHICLE. I RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM IN NISSAN INTERNET FORUMS AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM AS I WAS ABLE TO FIND NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THE SAME. I THINK THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IT DOES AFFECT THE STOPPING ABILITY OF THE VEHICLE, AND ALMOST ASSURES AN ACCIDENT IF THE VEHICLE IS TRAVELING AT ANYTHING MORE THAN PARKING LOT SPEEDS. *TR

MY BRAKE WARNING LIGHT IS OR WAS ON, AND/OR THE ABS WARNING LIGHT IS OR WAS ON, AND THERE IS A VIBRATION IN THE BRAKE PEDAL WHILE BRAKING. I HAD LITTLE OR NO BRAKING POWER. I HAD TO STOP THE VEHICLE THANK GOD I WAS GOING FAST. USUALLY THIS OCCURS AS I START UP THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE ISSUE I WOULD STOP THE CAR AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE. AFTER A FEW MINUTES I WOULD RESTART THE VEHICLE AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WAS NO LONGER ON AND THE BRAKE NOISES WERE GONE AS WELL. PLEASE HELP! *TR

I HAVE BROUGHT MY NISSAN ARMANDA 2004 4X4 LE IN SEVERAL TIMES AFTER RESEARCHING SEVERAL WEB-SITES THE BRAKES, ROTORS AND ABS SENSORS ARE A CONSTANT ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL. TO THIS DATE MY DEALER CAN NOT FIX THIS ISSUE. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. THIS BRAKE ISSUES OCCURS WHILE DRIVING WITH NO NOTIFICATION UNTIL YOU TRY TO STOP. *TR
