Nissan Titan warning lights comes on

Filed Jan 11, 2024 · Electrical, Engine · TX

Traveling home from working nightshift. I fueled up my truck with diesel and started my commute home which is 85 miles to my residence from work. 60 miles into my commute without warning and no alerts my truck suddenly lost power to everything… engine, steering, acceleration, and electrical. Final able to pull off the road with difficulty steering. Came to a stop and everything shuts off. All the warning lights lit up but no exact detail to what caused it. Had it towed to service shop after failure to start and the sound it made trying to start wasn’t normal. Technicians ran my codes and found nothing that could diagnose the problem.

Unknown - while driving my vehicle several warning lights started popping up all at onces the lights on the dash where glitching. Then all the power to my dash an possibly other parts of vehicle lost connection. Vehicle wouldn't even show speed or what gear I was in. While I was driving with 2 small children in the truck. I immediately pulled over. I have since taken my vehicle to a dealership where it's been for a couple weeks. They where unable to give me an exact diagnosis so my warranty won't cover repairs yet. I now have to tow my vehicle 96 miles to a different dealership in hopes of getting it fixed. My 2017 truck will not even start now!!

Frequent and intermittent appearance of ABS, traction control, engine warning and 4WD Error lights on dashboard. All lights appear simultaneously and when they appear, cruise control fails, vehicle downshifts and slows substantially and engine RPMs increase 10-20% above norm for each gear. If vehicle is stopped, turned off and then restarted, conditions return to normal, only to appear again later. During a recent 3,000 mile Florida-Michigan-Florida trip, these incidents occurred a total of 56 times, all while on interstate highways driving 55-70 mph. The incidents do not occur during daily low-speed driving around town. After the recent 3k mile trip, I brought the vehicle to Nissan dealer however they would not service because dashboard lights were not on and vehicle was operating normally. Dealer advised I should wait until lights reappear, then bring vehicle into dealer service bay immediately and “DO NOT TURN OFF IGNITION” because lights will disappear. This situation is difficult because lights only appear when I am driving on the interstate, usually far from home, and they disappear upon restart. Also I would need to immediately find a Nissan dealer with an open service bay.

When in motion, vehicle brakes occasionally fail. Dynamic control off light, brake light, and slip light turn on at same time that brake pedal loses all resistance and is easily pushed all the way to the floor. Brake power significantly reduced and need to be actively pumped to slow down and come to a stop. At a stop, vehicle can be turned off and back on then warning all lights will go off and brakes operate as normal. Dangerous situation when attempting to slow down, especially at higher speeds. Occurs 6-7 times per year.

Sometimes the traction control light will come on in the middle of me driving. Then it reduces my titan to 10mph. It has happened twice while the vehicle was in operation and I was going less than 30mph both times. The traction light will also come on when I drive somewhere and let my car sit idle. Usually when that happens all the light appear. I'll turn it off and all the lights will disappear except for the engine light. The first time this ever happened was when we were sitting idle in a parking lot and at first it wouldn't even go anywhere.

I went in to get a truck on july 11th... They had to get the truck started by jumping the battery that they said would be replaced. While rushing us without offering a test drive insurring the truck was sound and mechanically stable. We then drove off in the 2004 nissan titan and all the lights on the dash came on shortly after. Vrd ABS and brake as well as check engine light. The brakes then went out on us as we reached out home. The next day we informed them of what happened, they said it was just water on the brakes to give it a day and see what it does. It happened again and when we took it back they said the mechanic was gone to come back. Thats when we noticed the cara registration was for another vehicle and started to wonder if they had taken the car to emmisions at all. Check engine light was om since we left the lot. Before our first payment I spent $900 on parts had roadside called 4 times and replaced the battery. The truck didnt last to the first payment. Completely lost all braking power. This truck was taken to a mechanic that told us it would not have passed emissions when we got it because the history on the check engine light showed it was only cleared and not addressed.

While on a road trip to tennessee, 1.5 hours away from our destination we stopped at a gas station. We took the key out of the ignition of the truck and the truck kept running. All of the warning lights also came on at once. We could not turn the car off by disconnecting the battery because the alternator kept the car running. A check of the computer at an o'reilly auto parts did not show any computer warning codes. Since we did not want to be stranded 8 hours away from home, we decided to drive back home. While on the freeway, the truck's engine completely shut off. We had no power steering or power brakes. We were able to get it to the shoulder and restart the truck. While driving it off of the exit ramp, the truck died again. We tried going to another auto parts store but they were not able to get a code reading off of the car. A call to a nissan dealership told us to just pull fuses to shut the car off and that they wouldn't be able to help us for 2 days. We disconnected the battery when the truck had died to try to reset the system and drove back on the highway. The truck died again. A call to the nissan roadside assistance hotline told us we should just call 9-1-1. We realized that if we didn't drive the car faster than 60 MPH we it would not shut off while driving so we were able to make it home. This incident could have killed us had my husband not been as skilled of a driver. Online research shows that other people have had the same issue with their nissan titans. This is an extremely serious issue and, when contacting nissan about it, they do not care. Please help us. *tt *dt the consumer stated the vehicle was finally diagnosed with a hole in the top of the trucks muffler, which the leak caused an electrical system short in multiple locations.

I was traveling towing a 33 ft camper. Usually tow at about 62 MPH. All of a sudden the truck cuts out then turns back on and "bucks". My lights on my dash light up like a color blinking christmas tree. My speedometer goes all the way to 140 MPH, my rpms max out, my fuel gauge goes up and down along with the temp gauge. Furthermore all the gauges and warning lights flash or move in no form or fashion. Steering gets stiff along with the brakes because the truck shuts off. I controlled the truck to avoid crashing in between the on and off periods. This happened several times. Thought it was wiring from camper or brake controller. However, over the last few weeks from about mid sept it has progressively gotten worse. Now I can't go out of the driveway before the truck starts acting up. There is a bad accident waiting to happen. In my past experience with nissan is they are reluctant to say anything is wrong and to fix things. I have had enough go wrong with my truck from brakes, electrical, and rear end unit. Just last weekend 20 oct 12 I took the truck on about a 15 mile round trip and it acted up again. Between july and sept 2012 the truck would start the shut completely off in parked position. It still does that now too. The truck is now parked until I figure what is the problem. I don't have mega bucks to fix it! Someone said nissan has a computer recall but I have not been notified and I contacted a dealer but they have not called back. Its been 3 days now. They said the description I gave them matches the recall??????????
