2004 Nissan Crew

WHERE TO BEGIN. PROBLEMS STARTED FROM THE TIME WE TOOK POSSESION. THE IGNITION WOULDN'T RELEASE, BACK TO THE DEALER. THE BREAKS SHUDDER, BACK TO THE DEALER TWICE!! ROTORS WARPED. POWER WINDOWS WORK ON SOME OF THE TIME. STEERING PULSES AT SPEEDS OVER 70. IT'S JUST BEEN ONE THING AFTER ANOTHER. THE BIGGEST IS THE BRAKES THOUGH, NOW AFFECTING THE WHOLE FRONT END AND SAFETY.*AK

I HAVE A 2004 NISSAN TITAN 4X4 PICKUP AND HAVE BEEN HAVING STEADILY INCREASING PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAKES. THEY STARTED VIBRATING AT ABOUT 5,000 MILES AND CONTINUED TO GET WORST. I BROUGHT THE TRUCK IN TO A NISSAN DEALER TO GET THEM WORKED ON AFTER THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO SHAKE REALLY BAD WHEN BRAKES WERE USED. THE SERVICE WRITER STATED NISSAN WAS WORKING ON A RECALL EXPECTED IN JUNE. HE HAD THE ROTORS TURNED, DID A FIX KIT ON THE CALIPERS, AND PUT NEW PADS ON. THE ARE WORKING FINE NOW BUT I AM AFRAID IT IS JUST A TEMPORARY FIX. THEY REALLY NEED TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE SERIOUS PROBLEMS BEGAN HAPPENING. THANKS. *AK

IT STARTED ABOUT A MONTH AFTER TAKING OWNERSHIP ON A NEW 2004 TITAN..AT THAT TIME IT HAD ABOUT 1500 MILES ON IT ..THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED A SHUDDER UPON APPLYING THE BRAKES ...I FINALLY HAD THE TIME AVAILABLE TO GET IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD TURN THE ROTORS..I COULDN'T ACCEPT THAT QUICK FIX AND INSISTED ON THE UPDATED ROTORS.. THEY COMPLIED AND THAT WAS YESTERDAY..TODAY THE DEALER CALLED ME AND TOLD ME THAT THE NEW ROTORS ARRIVED AT THE DEALER TODAY..I AM SCHEDULED FOR REPLACEMENT IN 5 DAYS FROM NOW WHEN I FOUND THE TIME TO GET TO THE DEALER.....HOPE IT TAKES CARE OF THE PROBLEM.......*AK

HAVE 04 ARMADA AND HAD THE ROTORS TURNED AT 7000 MILES, AND JUST FOUND OUT THAT I NEED ANOTHER ROTOR AND BRAKE JOB AT 14000 MILES. CONTACTED DEALERSHIP AND FIRST PERSON I TALKED TO DENIED THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND SAID IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY-EVEN EXTENDED. SECOND PERSON WAS MUCH NICER BUT SAID THAT THEY STILL WON'T BE ABLE TO "FIX" THE PROBLEM FOR NOW. HAVE ALSO TAKEN TRUCK IN FOR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW RATTLE AND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR SQUEAKING TWICE AND HAS YET TO BE FIXED. DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT THEY CANNOT HEAR OR "FIND" A PROBLEM, I DON'T THINK THAT THEY EVEN CHECKED IT OUT. *NM

BRAKES HAVE BEEN SERVICED 6 TIMES IN 8 MONTHS AND HAVE FAILED TO STOP VEHICLE 2 TIMES. DEALERSHIPS HAVE INFORMED ME THAT THIS BRAKE PROBLEM IS OCCURING IN ABOUT 35 TO 40% OF ALL 2004 NISSAN ARMADA'S AND THAT NISSAN ENGINEERS ARE PREPARING A BRAND NEW REDESIGN OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM FOR THIS VEHICLE OVER THE NEXT 3 MONTHS. IN THE MEANTIME, THIS VEHICLE POSES A POTENTIAL LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM FOR ALL CONSUMERS THAT HAVE PURCHASED THIS TYPE OF VEHICLE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR SAFETY REASONS. A VEHICLE THAT RUNS THE RISK OF NOT STOPPING, OR IMPARING ONES ABILITY TO STOP, SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE MARKET, UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE SITUATION IS FULLY CORRECTED AND DOCUMENTED AS CORRECTED. *AK

I HAVE HAD MY ARMADA IN FOR BRAKE SERVICE 4 TIMES NOW .MY WIFE CAN'T WORK ON THAT DAY AND ISN'T PROVIDED A RENTAL CAR FOR A DEFECT THAT IS NOT OUR RESPONSIBILITY NEEDS TO QUIT DANCING AROUND THIS ISSUE AND MANUFACTURE CORRECTLY DESIGNED BRAKE ROTORS FOR THIS VEHICLE. THEY NEED TO PROVIDE VEHICLES TO THOSE THAT NEED TO GET TO WORK .THIS IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY OR THEY ARE GOING TO LOOSE A LARGE PORTION OF THEIR CUSTOMER BASE TO TOYOTA AND OTHERS WITH PROVEN RELIABILITY. *JB

I BOUGHT MY ARMADA IN OCT 2004 AND IT WAS IN FOR REPAIRS BY NOV 2004, THE FRONT END/BRAKES WOULD VIOLENTLY VIBRATE WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP, THE ROTORS ALONG WITH SEVERAL OTHER MAJOR COMPONENTS WERE REPLACED WHICH TEMPORARILY FIXED THE PROBLEM. BY THE BEGINNING FEB 2005 MY ARMADA WAS BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE EXACT REPAIRS WHICH AGAIN WILL TEMPORARILY FIX THE PROBLEM. I WAS ADVISED BY NMAC THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM THEY ARE AWARE OF AND THEY ARE "WORKING ON A REMEDY", SO FOR THE MEAN TIME, MY ARMADA SITS IN MY GARAGE UNTIL NISSAN COME UP WITH A "REMEDY" FOR THIS PROBLEM, I HOPE THEY EXPEDITE THIS PROCESS BEFORE TRAGEDY STRIKES.*JB

MY TRUCK HAS 8,000 MILES. 1ST THE MAIN COMPUTER SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED AND I HAD TO WAIT A WEEK TO BE REPLACED. THEN MY BRAKES STARTED SHAKING SO THEY GRINDED DOWN MY ROTORS.THEN THE BRAKES STARTED SHAKING AGAIN SO THEY REPLACED THE ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS. THEN TWO MONTHS LATER THE BRAKES WENT AGAIN SO THEY REPLACED THE ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS AGAIN. THEN ON A COLD DAY I WENT TO OPEN MY CAR AND THE DOOR HANDLE BROKE SO I COULDN'T CLOSE MY DOOR. THE DEALER REPLACED IT. NOW THREE WEEKS LATER THE DOOR HANDLE BROKE AGAIN AND MY REAR WINDOW WIPER STOPPED WORKING. NISSAN TELLS ME THAT THEY HAVE A NATIONAL BACK ORDER ON THE DOOR HANDLES.
