2018 Nissan Titan Power Train

Transmission failed while driving. Placing my family and others in an unsafe predicament. This seems to be a common problem with Nissan transmission. A quick search on the internet show almost all cvt models do this from this company. How is there only a partial recall on some models?

Erratic shifting. As an example, while attempting to pass at highway speeds, the transmission will not downshift responsively (or downshift to low gears/high rpm) leading driver to abandon the pass due to time lag, lack of confidence and power gain loss/stress. Other examples, this 7speed transmission will rev spike at low gears like it was slipping or confused, then it corrects itself. If you have cruise control enabled, the transmission seems to downshift on minor hill climbs, which is not something a normal driver would do. Overall, this transmission and TCM have had issues and recalls in the year prior to this model and in my opinion the flaws continue to exist and need a recall.

I PARKED THE VEHICLE IN THE DRIVEWAY AND THE CAR STARTED ROLLIN BACKWARDS. SECOND DAY PARKED IT AGAIN AT NIGHT AND WHEN I WOKE UP THE VEHICLE HAD ROLLED DOWN AT THE END OF THE DRIVEWAY. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ACCORDING TO THEM NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. I WENT ON MY OWN AND DID THREE PARKING TESTS AND EVERY TIME IT ROLLED BACKWARDS WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK. I FILMED THE INCIDENT AND BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. AT THAT TIME THEY KEPT THE TRUCK FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION. THEY HAD A SPECIALIST FROM CORPORATE NISSAN COME IN AND HIS FINDINGS WERE THAT THE VEHICLE WAS FINE AND THE TIRES NEEDED TO BE CHANGED. THAT DOESN'T SOLVE THE ISSUE OF THE VEHICLE ROLLING BACKWARDS WHILE PARKED.I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR 2 1/2 YEARS AND NO ISSUES UNTIL NOW. SNOW IS NOT A NEW SITUATION BECAUSE I LIVE IN UPSTATE NY. IT JUST STARTED ON 1/1/21 AND IT HASN'T STOPPED ROLLING BACKWARDS. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN THAT NISSAN IS NOT ADDRESSING. I DO HAVE THE VIDEOS BUT I DO NOT HAVE THE OPTION TO UPLOAD.

My Nissan has 35 thousand miles on it it use it as a pleasure vehicle. I was driving the other day and it started shifting really high motor racing loud and not really going anywhere. It was like the transmission was slipping. It had never done this before. I thought it was a isolated incident but the next few days going to get gas and groceries (17 miles one way) it did it again this time starting in low gear the tachometer raced up to 5 -6 thousand rpm before it shifted and when it hit 2gear it did it again and 3rd gear all the time acting like the transmission was slipping. I read on some sites that this model has this problem and nobody seems to want to take accountability for this problem. I paid 33thousand dollars for this truck and it isn’t even broken in but it is broken! So help me what should I do I ask you first so you can give me guidance! Thanks Dennis Nash

ON NO LESS THAN 30 OCCASIONS, THIS TRUCK, UPON ENTERING AN INTERSECTION OR ENTERING A PASSING LANE WENT "PEDAL DEAD" MEANING THE ACCELERATOR FAILED TO OPERATE LEAVING ME, MY FAMILY AND THE PEOPLE IN THE ONCOMING VEHICLES IN DIRECT DANGER OF COLLISION.. I HAVE TAKEN THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER, THEY SAY THEY FIND NOTHING. I HAVE FOUND 20 PLUS COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME THING FROM OTHER CONSUMERS. THIS TIME MY TRUCK IS NOW ON DAY 20 AT THE DEALER. WITH THIS TRUCK DYEING UPON ENTERING INTERSECTIONS AND PASSING LANES, SOMEONE WILL BE KILLED, IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME. I BOTH THIS NEW, MY FIRST COMPLAINT WAS IN JANUARY OF 2109 AT 242 MILES, NOW 11 MONTHS LATER IT ONLY HAS 3300 MILES ON IT BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM PERSISTS AND IT IS ABSOLUTELY GOING TO CREATE AN ACCIDENT SITUATION. THE FAULTS OCCUR WHEN TURNING ONTO A RAMP, PULLING INTO AN INTERSECTION, OR MANEUVERING INTO THE PASSING LANE. I HAVE SIGNED LETTERS FROM TWO PASSENGERS IN HAND WHO HAVE NOT ONLY EXPERIENCED IT FIRST HAND, THEY WILL NO LONGER RIDE IN THE TRUCK AS WELL AS OVER 20 CONSUMER COMPLAINTS FROM COMPLAINT.COM FOR THE SAME MATTER

WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN ONTO A FOUR LANE ROAD WITH MEDIAN SEPARATING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION LANES, I BEGAN TO PULL OUT AND WHEN PART WAY ACROSS WAS FACED WITH AN EMERGENCY WITH A CAR RACING AT ME IN THE SECOND LANE. FLOORING THE ACCELERATOR, THE TRUCK FAILED TO ACCELERATE OR DOWNSHIFT THROUGH THE TURN. THIS IS BRAND NEW 2018 TITAN XD DIESEL 2000 MILES ON IT. FIRST TRIP TO DEALER TOLD NO CODES ALL FIRMWARE UP TO DATE. "YOU NEED TO DRIVE SOME MORE FOR IT TO LEARN" SYMTOMS STILL EVIDENT AFTER 600 MILES. DEALER FOUND NOTHING AND NISSAN SAID RELEASE TO CUSTOMER. "UNABLE TO REPLICATE CUSTOMER CONCERN." FILED CASE WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. TOLD TO TAKE TO DIFFERENT DEALER FOR SECOND OPINION. SAME ANSWERS. NISSAN SCHEDULED ENGINEER TO MEET ME AT DEALER. DUPLICATED DELAY / LACK OF DRIVE OVER TO MEET ENGINEER. TEST DROVE FOR 30 MINUTES WHERE ENGINEER DUPLICATED HARD SHIFTS BUT NOT DELAYS. MY OPINION BUT HE NEVER TRIED TO MIMIC CONDITIONS FOR DELAY. REPORT " NO PROBLEMS FOUND, EVERYTHING TO MAUNFACTURES DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS. " TOOK BACK TO FIRST DEALER AND TEST DROVE WITH TECH WHO IMMEDIATELY AND REPEATEDLY REPEATED PROBLEM OF DELAY / NO ACCELERATION FOR MULTIPLE SECONDS WITH ACCELERATOR FLOORED. SAID NISSAN NEVER CAME UP WITH FIX, THEY ALL DO IT. ALSO, OFFERED HIS OWN SITUATION WHERE ON A TEST DRIVE ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY A SEMI AFTER MAKING A TURN ON A HIGHWAY FEEDER ROAD. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO FIX IT AFTER 3 YEARS.
