What 2006 Nissan Titan owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The contact owns a 2006 Nissan Titan. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 23E012000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available for older vehicles. The local dealer was contacted and stated that parts were not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
Airbag light is constantly flashing and nothing on the steering wheel works. Cruise control, volume for the radio, mode select and etc. This seems to be a common issue after looking at other forums with nissan titan owners complaints.
My airbag did not deploy after being involved in an incident. There is ongoing electrical issues with shorting out battery overnight when radio is connected. Nissan removed fuse and can't locate the electrical issue. Condenser fan has gone out.
It will crank but will not start
My vehicle impacted another vehicle from the rear and air bags did not deploy. The air bag light has been on. Several electrical problems; steering wheel buttons stopped working in 2008, ABS light remains on, backup sensor went out 11-17 and most recently I started my vehicle one morning and speakers started popping really loud and immediately smelled of burned wires and just two days later vehicle would not start, battery was completely drained. After charging worked fine for a couple of days but just repeated the same situation. This vehicle has gave me so many electrical problems starting a year after purchase. Also noticed that one of the a frames welded joints is cracked. I am a certified welding inspector and can say that it is a manufacturer discontinuity. The catalytic converters went out years after purchase in 2006. I have had to replace the engine because of the catalytic converters. I am the one and only owner and purchased it new with only 17 miles on it. This vehicle has had so many electrical/mechanical issues that im starting to think I should apply under lemon law but I dont know how to do that.
Tl* the contact owns a 2006 nissan titan. The contact stated that the vehicle was involved in a front end collision. The air bags did not deploy, and the air bag warning indicator illuminated intermittently. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where the technician recommended to tow the vehicle to nissan. The vehicle was deemed operable. The vehicle was also taken to carriage nissan (2400 browns bridge rd, gainesville, ga), but was not diagnosed. There were no injuries. The failure mileage was 48,000.
Had a recall on the 2004-2006 air bags and took titan in to university nissan in florence, al. Was informed that the recall could not be completed on some of the 2004-2006 titans and they would contact nissan to get a solution. After several months of waiting I contacted nissan USA and then university nissan tried again to reprogram the airbags but it still would not take. Now I have found out that nissan has suspended the recall until such time that they can produce a program to fix this recall. I know, other owners are having same problem and now what can be done ? If air bags decide to go off on my vehicle, who is responsible for safety of my family and the repairs to fix if the air bags deploy for no reason ? I need my vehicle and cannot park until they decide to fix their mistake. I need some help in getting this recall taken care of. If you cannot help then where do I turn for help. Emmett jones
Tl* the contact owns a 2006 nissan titan. The contact stated that the air bag warning indicator remained illuminated while driving. In addition, the passenger seat belt failed to retract and the rear door speaker failed to function. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the rear door wiring harness needed to be repaired and rounded the correct way. The vehicle was not repaired. The VIN was not included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 06v459000 (electrical system). The manufacturer was made aware of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 100,000.
Air bag warning light started blinking. Diagnostic gave code of crash zone sensor communication error. Researched issue on line and see that there is a recall for snow belt states which maine is included but not the titan. Contacted nissan regarding issue and was told that they would not cover because we are outside of warrantee? Find it odd that some vehicles are being covered but not this one. Previously to the airbag light issue my husband was driving on the interstate doing approximately 70 MPH when the vehicle abruptly lost all power. Thankfully no vehicle behind him. He pulled over into breakdown lane tried to restart vehicle wouldn't start initially but after 10 minutes did start. No codes to be read not sure if this is related to the airbag issue but obviously not safe to have your vehicle abruptly shut down at 70 MPH.
