2009 NISSAN TITAN Complaints and Recall Information

The 2009 NISSAN TITAN has 1 complaint and 14 recalls filed with NHTSA. The sole complaint involves leaking rear driver axle seals described as very unsafe by the owner.

Common Issues

• Rear axle seal leaks. An owner reports leaking at the rear driver axle seals which they consider a serious safety issue.

The 14 recalls involve various safety-related components affecting braking, fuel systems, suspension, and airbag functions. These recalls address potential defects that could impair drivability or increase injury risk.

Recalls

• Brake pedal assembly. NHTSA Recall 10V072000 affects 179,383 vehicles for a brake pedal pivot pin improperly formed at manufacture. The pivot pin can slide causing partial disengagement of the brake pedal, reducing braking force and increasing crash risk. Dealers inspect and replace the brake pedal assembly if necessary at no charge.
• Fuel gauge system. Recall 10V074000 covers 340,000 vehicles with a fuel sender unit that may falsely indicate remaining fuel when the tank is empty. This can cause the vehicle to stall on highways, increasing crash risk. Dealers replace the fuel sender unit free of charge.
• Front lower control arm. In recall 10E019000 involving 1,873 vehicles, improperly welded collars on replacement front and rear lower control arms may fail. Separation of the weld can degrade vehicle handling and cause crashes. Affected lower links are replaced free of charge.
• Driver airbag cover emblem. Recall 23V067000 covers 404,690 vehicles with resin emblems on driver airbag covers that may crack and detach during deployment. Detached emblems can become projectiles and cause occupant injuries. Dealers replace the driver airbag cover at no cost.

Owners of 2009 NISSAN TITAN vehicles with repeated repairs or open safety recalls should consider their rights under state lemon laws. Consulting a legal professional may provide guidance regarding unresolved issues or safety defects.
