Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While turning out of a parking space, multiple loud clunks came from the rear of the truck and the truck hesitated as if the rear axel was binding. upon review it was determined that the rear differential was binding whenever the wheels became out of sync (steering left or right even slightly). this could have been disastrous if occurring in the street and not a parking lot. i have researched and found many complaints of the same issue. something must be done to prompt nissan to acknowledge this problem and fix it. this is a dealer repair only issue as no aftermarket replacement parts can be found. with nissan replacement differentials at $3000.00 each, i'm sure nissan would not mind keeping a lid on this issue so we can keep buying their parts. it's time something was done before anyone seriously gets hurt when their vehicle abruptly stops in harms way due to a known common failure in the driveline. *nm |
