WHEN TRYING TO GET VEHICLE OUT OF SAND 4 WD SWITCH WAS ENGAGED WITH NO 4 WHEEL DRIVE RESULTING. 4 WHEEL DRIVE ERROR CAME UP. TOOK INTO DEALER AND TRANSFER CASE HAD TO BE REPLACED. I WAS STUCK IN SAND AND VULNERABLE. VEHICLE ONLY HAD 23,000 MILES ON IT WITH VERY LITTLE USE OF 4 WHEEL DRIVE. SEEMS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL.
WITH TRUCK IN PART, KEY IN IGNITIONS, AND ENGINE RUNNING THE TRUCK WILL AUTO LOCK THE DOORS WHEN DRIVER EXITS VEHICLE AND CLOSES THE DOOR. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES ON MY TRUCK.

SECOND TIME I WAS 40 MINUTES FROM ANY TOWN IN THE COUNTRY. CELL PHONE LOCKED IN TRUCK AS IT WAS RUNNING, WAITED ALMOST ONE HOUR FOR PASSING VEHICLE TO CALL AAA FOR LOCKSMITH. I WAITED ANOTHER HOUR FOR TOWTRUCK TO UNLOCK MY TRUCK.
ABS WARNING LIGHT, SLIP LIGHT, TIRE DEFLATION LIGHT, 4X4 WARNING LIGHT KEEP ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING IN THE STREET. ACCELERATOR DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON.
SINCE I GOT A NOTICE CONCERNED THAT AIR BAGS MIGHT BE DEFECTIVE AND VIN NUMBER DOES SHOW POSSIBLE PROBLEM BUT NO RECALL AT THE MOMENT.
GAS GAUGE IS NOT READING BELOW 1/4 TANK. THERE IS A CURRENT RECALL FOR NISSAN TITANS OF THE SAME YEAR, BUT NOT THE VIN NUMBER MY TITAN IS. I HAVE RAN OUT OF GAS ON A BUSY ROAD ONCE BECAUSE OF THIS INCORRECT READING.
