2007 titan le 4wd, with 72,000 miles. In dec 2018 my right turn signal indicator would flash once and quit while driving but issue is replicated driving or stationary, engine on or off. I had the cruise control engaged and hitting the right turn signal tripped it off, as if I'd tapped the brakes. A week earlier, I started having intermittent issues with my backup sonar warning system then complete failure. Later troubleshooting the turn signal issue, I realized when I hit the brake, the right front turn lamp would illuminate while the brake pedal was depressed. I realized if I held or rode the brake pedal, then engaged the right turn signal, the right turn lamps and indicator worked normal, until I released the brake, then the right turn signal lamps would quit. Also noticed that all clearance lamps, tail and stop lamps fluctuated a little in sync with the turn signal operation. I realize I've got an electrical short. Checked what I could and could not find the problem and decided to take it to my car repair guys. This morning, when I started it for the trip, I had warning lights on for low tire pressure (flashing, then steady, then flashing), ABS (steady) and slp (steady), and said it was in 4wd when the dial was in 2wd. Never had that happen before. After 5 miles the 4wd indicator went off and the 2/4wd graphic was back my shop found a melted wire bundle above my exhaust where the tailpipe exits the muffler. They say it looks like a heat shield is either missing or that one should be there. However, the mechanic says it is not safe to drive as several key systems wires pass in that bundle that has indications of excess heat and may have partially melted which could create shorts that could make other vital systems fail, or create a fire hazard. I've seen several other reports of similar issues online. Still in the process of diagnosing and repair.

Door lock actuators stopped working causing a safety concern cern when needing to quickly exit the vehicle. Cruise control buttons stopped working as well. Vehicle has been clipped and also been involved in a rear end collision where on both occasions, the air bags did not deploy. Very concerning!

Traveling at approximately 30-35 MPH, early morning, dry conditions. I set the cruise control, because I was having severe stomach pain. I leaned my head back and next thing I must have passed out. I awoke after striking a telephone pole on the opposite side of the street. The impact was dead center. The license plate is the exact shape of the pole, infact the sensor is directly behind and under the bumper from the plate. The seatbelt did not lock and the airbags neither one didn't deploy. The cruise was set, and there were no skid marks, so I must have hit the pole going 30-35 MPH. The pole is approximately 3' from road. I suffered chest and back injuries, and still recovering. Luckily I'm still alive! The interior looks perfect like it never was wrecked, on the other hand the truck was totaled. The bumpers ends where literally wrapped around the pole. It was a 2007 nissan titan, less than a year old. I do have photos.

Tl*-the contact stated that while driving the 2007 nissan titan with 8,000 failure mileage at 65 MPH on cruise control, and attempting to pass another vehicle the contact pressed on the acceleration pedal. At which point the vehicle accelerated at a higher rate of speed than expected. The contact pressed on the brake to get the vehicle to slow down, but nothing happened. The contact had to pull the vehicle onto the side of the road, turned off the cruise control manually, put the vehicle in neutral and hit the brakes to regain control. The vehicle was revving and sounded rough after the contact turned off and restarted the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealership and the throttle chamber was replaced. The vehicle experienced the same failure three times after the repair. *ak update *4/23/07
