Titan Crew Cab Ls V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 65,000 miles

The reverse failed in my 2008 Nissan Titian crew cab at 65000 miles. I was reversing in normal every day backing up. Imagine if I actually use the four wheel drive truck to drive off road. I would have probably just left it where it was. This truck is having the worst mechanical failures any vehicle can have. It seems that a 2008 Titan, would have been enough time for Nissan to fix this issue, and or send out a recall. I am sure the crappy plastic radiator had something to do with reverse failure, possibly broke internally and water slowly entered the transmission. The Nissan heavy duty full size Titian with the really SAD plastic radiator is such a bad design flaw. Don't get me wrong, a plastic radiator had is place in the auto industry, like on a Vespa, or a Razor Scooter(haha) or some small vehicle like a Sentra, but a full size truck definitely(4x4) needs a real radiator, you know metal, aluminum, and a transmission that can actually go in reverse after 100,000+ miles. I will never, never, never, NEVER purchase a Nissan truck it is the worst, most mis- spent money AT 37000.00 dollars. SORRY NISSAN I'M SURE THE NEW TITAN WILL START TO FAIL VERY SOON. PEOPLE BEWARE
