Nissan North America, Inc.
Safety Issue:
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2016 Titan Diesel XD vehicles manufactured August 7, 2015, to September 1, 2016. The affected vehicles may not have had the temporary fuel tank breather tube cap removed during the vehicle's assembly and the fuel tank breather tube may not have been connected to the bed rail. As a result, the fuel tank may not have the proper ventilation, possibly causing the fuel gauge and the distance to empty meter to both display inaccurately.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Issues with turbo actuator. The check engine light stays on and I've taken it to Nissan multiple times to diagnose but they want to change me diagnostic fee every time and still can't tell me what the issue is. The truck loses power while driving without any warning and goes into limp mode where it will not go past 5-10 mile per hour. According to boards and Nissan this is a very common problem with Nissan Titans with Cummins that Nissan has failed to fix with recall. This is a huge safety issue and could cause loss of life as it has stopped on me on the interstate multiple times. Please fix this issue asap as it's been reported over the course of last few years and someone will lose their life over this huge issue.

Potential Consequences:
The four-wheel drive transfer case failed locking the truck in 4WD. The transfer case had to replaced at a cost of approximately $4000. My research has found that this is a common problem with this vehicle and Nissan will not cover the repairs. This truck is like new and had never been abused or used off road and has always been maintained.

Potential Consequences:
The turbo actuator failed twice. I have yet to replace it a second time hoping there would be a recall. I spoke with two dealers and they tell me it is a common problem on Nissan titans with a Cummins engine. The check engine comes on and then the truck goes into limp mode. It does not want to go past 5 -10 mph. It goes away after the truck is turned off for 15 minutes. Then after a week or two it comes back. If I do not turn it off for 15 minutes the truck turns itself off.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
The transfer case shifted between 4x2, 4x4H and 4x4L on its own while vehicle is driving down the road. This caused ABS and traction control failure causing the vehicle to shake and drop suddenly in speed. This is a safety issue because ABS and traction control are safety features to prevent the vehicle from losing control. Nissan Titan XD has several reported issues with transfer cases from 2016-2020 where Nissan replaced them for the owners. The problem was confirmed by Nissan to be a transfer case failure. ABS, traction control, low power mode and 4X4 error lights occurred. ABS, traction control and 4x4 error lights occurred instantly. Low power mode quickly occurred afterwards which caused the vehicle to slow down rapidly on its own. I was able to travel at low speeds with hazards on to a parking lot and towed to dealer.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Vehicles engine suddenly and without warning began knocking while crusing down the interstate, within 30 seconds of the sudden knocking the engine was locked up on the side of the road. After reading i have found thousands of other cases just like mine where there cummins 5 liter diesels have suddenly and without warning locked up while traveling down the road. All maintenance was done on time by nissan technicians. Milage for my specific instance was 101,056. Nissan refused to warranty and dealer ended up out of pocketing most of the repair. And Nissan continues to ignore that there is a serious issue with these engines, and after doing more research i have found litterally thousands of cases just like mine, and anywhere from 1000 miles on up through 150,000 miles with some instances happening up to 5 repeated times before the vehicle reaches 100,000 miles. The repair itself cost upward of $23,000, and dealerships and technicians seemly know nothing of said issue even though a quick search online shows case after case of peoples nissan titan diesels unexpected locking up while traveling down the road and in some cases causing the drivetrain to lock up as well suddenly and abruptly stopping there vehicle, potentially causing an accident. More often than not though nissan is leaving these customers like myself high and dry on the side of busy interstate while they continue to hide the fact that there product is defect and potentially unsafe. I was fortunately to have a great dealership that took care of me and got me off the side of the road, but many arent. In most cases including mine these vehicle display a crank position sensor code, and then shortly there after the crankshaft breaks in half and often times sends large pieces of metal flying out of the engine block shortly before locking up completely. I was fortunate and mine did not throw large pieces of metal out but many are not, and these large pieces of metal often pierce the vehicles tires and those behind
