My 06 titan 4wd had just had repairs to the transmission done 2-3 days prior to the incident. My truck had been running in my driveway with the AC and radio going for some time while I was doing various cleaning and other stuff outside. I was sitting in the drivers seat cooling off with my eyes closed when my neighbor came running out screaming that my truck was on fire. When I looked at the hood flames were visible and smoke. She called the fire dept while I used the hose to extinguish the fire the best I could until the fire dept arrived. A nissan rep investigated the fire and said it was not the company problem. Shortly later I receive the recall concerning the AC unit and that it may lead to fire. We had no insurance at the time but it was still under warranty. Is this legal?

Noise in condenser fan motor. This is 3rd time since purchase of titan in april 2006 that I have had this truck to dealer. 1st time, replace A/C condenser, 2nd time in 2007 replace compressor, 2nd condenser and kept vehicle for 3 weeks. This summer the condenser motor. They said had recall on it and patched a section of the motor with A/C tape and wrapped the wiring with tape and put a wedge between motor and bracket. My wife waited to have it repaired and 4 hours later went home. I work out of town and I checked the internet for recalls and found more than just this problem with the truck but, have not been told by nissan or the dealer of these other recalls. The last time my truck was kept for 3 weeks I reported to nissan the problems and was cut off when I was giving my complaint to customer service {?}. Never heard from them or the local dealer sparks nissan.oh yes, I also had to have the battery replaced in march 2008 as it died and would not hold a charge and it was on a weekend and had to be repaired before I left town and no way for my wife to go. The dealer owner here does not care about his customers after the sell and each time someone ask me how I like my truck; I tell them how we have been treated and what problems we have had. I suggest strongly that the highway traffic safety admin. Contact these manufactures and enforce the recalls. Some of these can be fatal in an accident. This is all unacceptable for the amount of money that is spent on the purchase of a vehicle.
