Grinding or squealing brakes by model year
What owners say
2010 nissan titan pro-4x uncontrollably accelerated without driver input, resulting in a collision. I was driving down an aisle in a parking lot and began to apply the brake to slow down and turn left into a parking stall. Just as my vehicle was about to come to a stop and park, the engine revved (it felt/sounded like full throttle), the tires squealed and launched the vehicle forward resulting in a collision with a vehicle parked in the opposite stall. Because my foot was already on the brake pedal I managed to quickly depress it all the way and at least reduce the severity of the impact. To date, this is the first and only occurrence of a problem associated with vehicle speed control/accelerator.
Wheel bearings and brake failure. Car makes grinding noise and all lights (ABS, vdc) comes on and the car does not brake.
While making a left hand turn onto my street I heard a loud popping sound from the right front side of my truck. While driving my truck the following week, the popping sound while turning and then squeaking started to get loud enough as to where people around the truck could hear it. I then took the truck to the dealership only to find that the strut tower bracket had separated from the frame of the pickup. I saw the damage myself and it appeared that the strut bracket was only tack welded in place. My insurance company claim was denied as there is no collision or comprehensive damage. The insurance company has claimed it to be metal fatigue due to faulty frame manufacturing. Nissan consumer affairs is working the issue on one end even though I was told by the service department the district rep said they won't work it because it is out of warranty. It has been 3 weeks now and I am paying for a rental out of my pocket. It seems I am only getting the run around. I don't have the money to fix this truck. :-( I need help with my $45,000 paperweight issue.
