WHILE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY THE REAR CONSOLE WHICH CONTAINS THE REAR INTERIOR LIGHTS FELL DOWN. NOW THE FRONT OVERHEAD CONSOLE IS FALLING , NOT FALLEN ALL THE WAY, BUT RIGHT SIDE IS ALREADY LOSE. IT WILL NOT BE LONG THAT THE FRONT WILL FALL , WHEN IT DOES I HOPE IT IS STATIONARY SO THAT MY WIFE, DAUGHTER OR MYSELF WHO EVER IS DRIVING WILL NOT BE HIT BY THE FALLING CONSOLE AND POSSIBLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT HARMING MY OTHER DAUGHTER AND SON, OR ANYONE ELSE THAT COULD BE IN HARMS WAY, AS A RESULT OF THIS POOR QUALITY PLASTIC USED MAKING THESE CONSOLES. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSANUSA ABOUT THIS AND THEIR RESPONSE WAS THEY ' UNFORTUNATELY THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING DUE TO THE VEHICLES MILEAGE ' I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW AND HAVE TAKEN VERY GOOD CARE OF IT. I HOPE SOMETHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS FAULTY PLASTIC. WHEN THE FRONT CONSOLE FALLS IT WILL LEAVE MY WIFE , DAUGHTER AND MYSELF IN THE DARK, WITH NO INTERIOR LIGHTING!!!

ON THE 2008 NISSAN TITAN THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW THAT MAY CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. THE HEADLAMPS AND TURN SIGNAL ARE ON THE SAME SWITCH. WHEN SIGNALING A TURN THE HEADLIGHT POSITION CHANGES. WHEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS AS YOU WILL LOSE ALL EXTERIOR AND INTERIOR LIGHTS. IT IS CONFUSING TO THE OPERATOR OF THE VEHICLE AS THE OPERATOR MUST REACT RAPIDLY TO LOCATE THE SWITCH AND REGAIN SOME IDEA OF THE LOCATION OF THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION OPERATORS OF ONCOMING VEHICLES MAY BE CONFUSED BY THE HEADLIGHTS FLASHING ON/OFF. THE DEFECT HAS OTHER ACCIDENT POSSIBILITIES AS THE SWITCH MAY HAVE GONE TO THE OFF POSITION DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS AND THE AUTOMATIC SWITCH WOULD NOT OPERATE AS EXPECTED LEAVING A PERSON TRAVELING PAST THE TWILIGHT HOURS WITH OUT ROAD LIGHTS. *TR
