2004 Nissan Titan brakes complaints
Page 11 of 11: complaints 281 to 290 of 290, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Brakes have warped after only 4000 miles. Experiencing severe vibrations when braking at any speed, especially at highway speeds. Severe vibration affects handling of vehicle and performance of the brake system. *ak - nissan has issued a tsb, but it merely fixes the symptoms by turning the rotors, and doesn't fix the cause of the warping.
2004 nissan titan developed brake "judder" at approximately 4000 miles. Dealer replaced pads and resurfaced rotors - problem remains. *jb nissan design was faulty - need new calipers and/or rotors.
Apply brakes at any speed above 25mph and have alot of shudder in the front-end. Nissan needs to look at replacing rotors for the titan.
Recently purchased 2004 nissan titan (january 10th, 04). When the vehicle had 5500 miles on the o.d. I had the front rotors replaced due to warpping. I did not tow anything with this vehicle during the initial 5500 miles. Mainly interstate driving.*ak the vehicle now in the shop with 12113 miles having the rotor replaced again. I believe that there is a defective part manufactured for this vehicle. My driving habits are not such that would cause this much excessive brake rotor warpping. These brakes are not cheap to replace, I think it is unrealistic to advertise a vehicle can tow 9400 lbs and cannot even stop with its own body weight, less any towing. The brake system in my oppinion is under sized or there is a manufacture spec that is not being met. God forbide I actually used this vehicle to tow as advertised. I could not afford to keep decent brakes on it.
Nissan needs to replace the rotors for the barke system on the titans. To small for such a big truck.
Front brake rotors are warped after only 7,000 miles. This issue needs to be resolved and not band aid patched as I am seeing at this time by the dealers.
Front brake pads, and rotors, are being redone again, at 11700 miles. This was done before at around 7000-800 miles. I am worried, that they will go out again, and that I will have to replace them again in another 10000 miles, and I will then have to pay for them, especially if this is a known problem. Refered to this by chip chidester (sci).
Rear axle leaked. As a result, the brake pedal slammed to the floor. Consumer had to pump the brake pedal several times in order for the brakes to work.
Rotors on vehicle have warped twice in less than 3 months.
