2004 Nissan Titan

ON MAY 3, 2012, I SAW MY SIDE MIRROR LIGHTS WERE NOT TURNING OFF, EVEN WHILE DRIVING. I SCHEDULED WORK FOR MY TRUCK FOR MAY 5, 2012. MY TRUCK WAS PARKED AT MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT FROM AROUND 6 AM TO 2 PM ON MAY 3, 2012. WHEN TRYING TO LEAVE WORK I TRIED TO START MY TRUCK AND IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER, TRIED TO JUMP START WITH NO SUCCESS AND EVEN HAD A TOW TRUCK COMPANY ATTEMPT TO START THE TRUCK. AFTER THE TRUCK WAS TOWED TO LOCAL SHOP THE TRUCK STARTED UP WITH NO PROBLEM AND THE MECHANIC SAID SINCE ITS NOT SHOWING ANY ISSUES THAT IT DID BEFORE THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. ON MAY 5, 2012 I TOOK MY TRUCK IN FOR THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND THEY ALSO FIXED A RECALL WITH THE ECM RELAY. ON THE SAME DAY AROUND 6 PM IN THE AFTERNOON THE TRUCK WOULD NOT START AGAIN. THE TRUCK WAS TOWED BACK TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP ON MAY 6, 2012 AND ON MAY 7, 2012 THE TECHNICIANS AT NISSAN CONTACTED ME STATING IT WAS MY BCM WHICH WAS IN THE SAME AREA AS THE ECM. I HAD TO PAY ABOUT 600 DOLLARS FOR A NEW BCM. I BELIEVE THE BCM WENT OUT DUE TO THE RECALL WORK THAT WAS PERFORMED EARLIER. *TR

I LIVE IN THE COLD NORTHEAST AND HAVE TO WARM MY VEHICLE BEFORE I DRIVE TO WORK. MY TRUCK IS A 2004 NISSAN TITAN SE WITH 79K MILES ON IT. I BRUSHED THE VEHICLE OFF AND STARTED IT TURNING THE DEFROSTER TO HIGH AND TURNING ON THE SIDE MIRROR DEFROSTERS AS WELL. I WENT BACK INSIDE TO GRAB THE REST OF MY STUFF FOR WORK AND WAS INSIDE FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES. WHEN I CAME BACK OUTSIDE I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE THE DRIVERS SIDE OF MY TRUCK ON FIRE. FIRE ENGULFED THE DRIVERS SIDE MIRROR AND THE DRIPPING PLASTIC WAS BURNING UP THE SIDE OF THE TRUCK. I RETURNED INSIDE AND GRABBED A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND WAS ABLE TO GET THE FIRE OUT. LUCKILY MY VEHICLE WAS FAR ENOUGH AWAY FROM THE GARAGE AS TO NOT BE A CONCERN AS TO BURNING DOWN MY HOUSE. I WAS SHOCKED TO SEE THAT THE MIRROR DEFROST SWITCH WAS STILL ACTIVE AND HAD NOT TRIPPED ANY FUSES. I IMMEDIATELY TURNED THE SWITCH TO THE OFF POSITION AND THE LIGHT WENT OUT. THIS JUST HAPPENED THIS MORNING AND I HAVE NOT REPAIRED THE TROUBLE AS YET. THE MIRROR OF COURSE IS TOTALLY DESTROYED AND THE PAINT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS DAMAGED. I AM WRITING THIS OUT OF CONCERN FOR THE SAFETY OF THE PUBLIC AS THIS COULD HAVE EASILY EVOLVED INTO A FULL BLOWN HOUSE FIRE. *TR

TRUCK VIBRATES VERY ROUGHLY AND BRAKES PUSH DOWN LOW TO THE FLOOR WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED. BRAKES WERE FIRST SERVICED AT 4,503 MILES ON SEPTEMBER 24, 2004. AGAIN TRUCK STARTED TO VIBRATE WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED, AND HAD TO BE PUSHED HARD AND LOW TO FLOOR. BRAKES WERE AGAIN SERVICED AT 8,795 MILES ON JANUARY 18, 2005. TRUCK CURRENTLY HAS 12,565 MILES AND TRUCK AGAIN VIBRATES WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED, AND BRAKES NEED TO BE PRESSED HARD AND GO LOW TO THE FLOOR. NISSAN HAS BEEN NOTIFIED AND WAITING FOR CONTACT FOR SERVICE OF TRUCK. IN ADDITION, THE FOLLOWING ITEMS HAVE BEEN NOTED WITH NISSAN: THERE IS A CLUNKING NOISE WHEN SHIFTING GEARS (POSSIBLE DRIVE SHAFT PROBLEM), TRUCK RUNS VERY ROUGH AND LOUD (POSSIBLE BELT TENSION PROBLEM), THE RADIO HAS BAD RECEPTION AND THE DASHBOARD RATTLES. IN ADDITION, IT WAS NOTED TO NISSAN THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE MIRROR REFLECTS THE DASHBOARD WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT, WHICH IS VERY DISTRACTING WHEN LOOKING INTO THE DRIVER'S SIDE MIRROR IN ORDER TO CHANGE LANES.*AK

HORRIBLE FM RADIO RECEPTION. STATIC,TREBLE FADES THE AUTOMATIC FEATURE ON THE POWER WINDOWS DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. WHEN WINDOWS ARE ALL THE WAY DOWN AND YOU HIT THE AUTO UP BUTTON, THE WINDOW TRIES TO GO UP AND THEN GOES BACK DOWN. IT THEN WILL NOT WORK FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON AFTER EXTENDED DRIVING.
