2008 Nissan Titan Suspension

MY TRUCK'S FRONT SUSPENSION MAKES NOISE ESPECIALLY WHEN IT GOES OVER SPEED BUMPS. IT'S BEEN MAKING NOISE FOR MAYBE SINCE 2010 YEARS AND WE HAVE GOT IT CHECKED BUT THE SERVICE GUYS SAYS IT'S FINE. THE TIRES, ROTATIONS, SERVICE HAS ALWAYS BEEN WELL KEPT.

2008 NISSAN TITAN HAS A LARGE KNOCK IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS AND OR HILLS WHEN DRIVING THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT. THE TRUCK WAS TAKEN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES UNTIL NISSAN FINALLY DECIDED TO POST A TSB. THE TSB STATES TO REPLACE THE FRONT SPRINGS ON 2008-2010 TITANS WITH SPRINGS FROM 2007 TITANS WHICH WILL LOWER THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK BY 1.5 INCHES. MY TRUCK IS NOW AN EYE SORE BY HAVING AN UNBALANCED RAKE WHEN LOOKING AT THE TRUCK FROM FRONT TO BACK AND STILL KNOCKS HEAVILY WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS AND OR HILLS. NISSAN ADMITS THE ISSUE IS PRESENT BUT STATE THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX. *TR

IN 2005 TITAN TRUCK HAD THEIR ADJUSTABLE CAMBER BOLTS REPLACED WITH NON-ADJUSTABLE BOLT. THIS CAUSED ANY TRUCK NEEDING A FRONT END ALIGNMENT TO HAVE TO HAVE THE BOLTS REPLACED. NISSAN IS NOT REPLACING THESE BOLTS ON A RECALL BUT HAVE NOTIFIED DEALERS ON A ATSB. THIS SEEMS TO BE A DELIBERATE ATTEMPT TO CAUSE MORE DEALER WORK AND CONSUMER COST BY DESIGNING A BOLT THAT THEY KNEW IN ADVANCE WOULD NOT WORK. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN TITAN. HE STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH THE REAR SUSPENSION WOULD HIT AGAINST THE STRUCTURE OF THE VEHICLE WHICH CAUSED HIM TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.
