This is a great forum for Titan owners!  I am not quite an owner yet but it is the truck I want.  The one thing that is stopping me is the brake issues everyone is reporting.  I read all the information and it was great but I still have a couple of questions:

1.  Did they fix this problem on the 05's?

2.  Is there a certain date model that already have the fix kits installed?

3.  How do I tell if the truck has the upgraded parts?

Any info is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Eric

Think of it like this.  If all the people that DIDN'T have brake issues posted it, then it would not seem like a problem.   It does exist though but its not a big enough problem to do a full recall on and if you have the problem, Nissan will fix it.  To answer your question, I don't know exactly when the date for the updated parts was but if you buy a new truck from a lot now, you will have the update.  I rolled 10,000 miles on mine this morning (bought in Jan. '05) and I have had no problems at all.  Go for it.  You will love the truck.

What can I say?  I started with a chevy, had a '98 Ford F-150, and drive a '02 F-150 4X4 for work.  I was impressed, but this Titan, I think it is the best of them all.  Yes Ford did brag about it's pulling torque, now it's Titans turn.  I think the appearance of the Titan makes the F-150 look outdated.  This truck is just impressive.

I experienced the Ford blown sparkplug problem, and can't beleive they would engineer such an inferior head, what where they thinking? 

So Hats off to the Nissan Titan.  I've waited for you, always wanted a full size Nissan not a Toyota.  I hope to remain loyal as time passes, we will see?

For example try this.  Open a hood on a new F-150 and close it. Now try it on the Titan?  There is no comparison on the quality the Titan is solid the Ford is cheap.
