2004 Nissan Armada

THE POWER SEAT POSITIONING OF THE DRIVER/FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CHANGES POSITION ON ITS OWN RANDOMLY (WHILE DRIVING, WHILE PARKED WITH&WITHOUT THE ENGINE RUNNING), AND GIVES LITTLE POSITIONING "CLICK" SOUNDS AS IT DOES IT. THIS OCCURS MORE ON SOME DAYS THAN OTHERS, USUALLY ONLY WITH PEOPLE SITTING ON THE SEAT AND ONLY IN SMALL INCREMENTS, BUT WHEN I GO MANUALLY CHANGE IT BACK WITH THE CONTROLLERS ON THE SIDE OF THE SEAT, IT WON'T ADJUST UNTIL THE PERSON IS OUT OF THE SEAT. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE AND HAPPENS ALMOST DAILY. THIS HAS ALSO BEEN NOTICED BY TWO PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT.

I AM WRITING AS A FOLLOW UP TO A NEWS ARTICLE OUT TODAY THAT TALKS ABOUT HOW CRACKS IN FORD EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ARE MAKING VEHICLE OWNERS/DRIVERS/PASSENGERS SICK THROUGH POISONING GASES ENTERING THE CABIN: HTTPS://WWW.BLOOMBERG.COM/GRAPHICS/2019-FORD-EXPLORER-OWNERS-SAY-SUVS-MAKING-THEM-SICK/ THIS IS NOT THE ONLY VEHICLE WITH THIS VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM. THERE ARE VERY SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE NISSAN ARMADA/TITAN EXHAUST MANIFOLDS CRACKING AND EMITTING TOXIC GASES, FROM 2004 ON UP. THESE VEHICLES, EQUIPPED WITH A 5.4L ENGINE, ARE HIGHLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO EXHAUST MANIFOLDS CRACKING AND EXHAUSTING GAS. THIS EXHAUST GAS CAN EASILY MAKE IT'S WAY INTO THE VEHICLE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, AND CAUSE SICKNESS, DIZZINESS, NAUSEA, OR POSSIBLY EVEN DEATH FROM CO2 POISONING. THE PROBLEM SO BAD ON THESE VEHICLES, THAT AFTERMARKET COMPANIES HAVE FOR MANY YEARS NOW STARTED MAKING EXHAUST MANIFOLDS THAT HAVE REINFORCEMENTS WELDED ONTO THE AREAS OF THE STOCK MANIFOLD THAT REGULARLY INCUR THESE CRACKS. THE JOB IS EXTENSIVE, HOWEVER, AND MANY VEHICLE OWNERS CANNOT AFFORD THESE REPAIRS. MANY VEHICLE OWNERS LIKELY DON'T KNOW WHAT IS MAKING THEM SICK. HERE ARE SOME VIDEOS/FORUMS THAT EXPLAIN THE MUCH NEEDED RECALL: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=1V7F2SX6B64 HTTPS://WWW.TITANTALK.COM/FORUMS/TITAN-PROBLEMS-DEALER-SERVICE/130198-EXHAUST-MANIFOLD-RECALL.HTML HTTPS://WWW.CLUBARMADA.COM/FORUMS/8-ENGINE-DRIVETRAIN/22309-CRACKED-EXHAUST-MANIFOLD.HTML HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/NISSAN/TITAN/2004/EXHAUST_SYSTEM/EXHAUST_MANIFOLDS_CRACKED.SHTML HTTPS://WWW.JUSTANSWER.COM/NISSAN/5J40C-NISSAN-DATSUN-ARMADA-SE-2006-NISSAN-ARMADA-JUST.HTML HTTPS://WWW.CLUBTITAN.ORG/FORUMS/13-GENERAL-DISCUSSION/63695-EXHAUST-MANIFOLD-RECALL-3.HTML HTTPS://REPAIRPAL.COM/NISSAN/TITAN/RECALLS HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/NISSAN/TITAN/MANIFOLD-HEADER-MUFFLER-TAIL-PIPE-PROBLEMS.PHP

THE SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WITHOUT ANY INCIDENT OF AN ACCIDENT OR CRASH. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT-NOTHING WAS BUT OR BUMPED JUST DRIVING 35 MPH AND THE SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED FULLY AND THE SEAT BELTS ON THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE TIGHTENED TO THE POINT OF RESTRICTED BREATHING. THE SEATBELTS NO LOMGER CAN BE USED AS THEY SHOULD. THEY DO NOT EXTEND OUT FULLY. AND THE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY. BEFORE THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE SIDE AIRBAGS THE BRAKES WOULD GRIND TO THE POINT OF NEEDING TO PULL OVER TO PUMP THE BRAKES IN ORDER FOR THEM TO FUNCTION AGAIN PROPERLY. THIS WOULD HAPPEN EVERY 100 MILES OR SO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 NISSAN ARMADA. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH AND APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE AND OTHER UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND WHEN THE GEAR SHIFTER WAS PLACED IN DRIVE, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,000.

ALL DASH BOARD LIGHTS SUDDENLY TURN ON WHEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND BREAKS DISENGAGE. PRESSING THE BREAK PEDAL RESULTS IN A LOUD GRINDING NOISE AND SOUNDS LIKE SPRINGS TEARING. THIS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES. DEALER CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND I HAVE CHANGED BREAK PADS AND ROTORS BUT STILL CONTINUES. THE ONLY SOLVE IS TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND TURN IT BACK ON.

I APPLIED MY BRAKES AND STOPPED 10 FEET BEHIND A PICK-UP AT TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE CAR SURGED FORWARD. I PUSHED ON THE BRAKES HARDER, STOPPED THEN THE CAR SURGED AGAIN HITTING THE PICK-UP TWICE EACH TIME AFTER STOPPING WHEN PUSHING HARDER ON THE BRAKES. IT IS ONLY AFTER PUTTING IN NEUTRAL THAT IT ALLOWED ME TO CONTROL IT AND PULL OVER TO EXCHANGE DRIVER INFORMATION. THE SAME HAPPENED WHILE WAITING TO FILL-UP WITH GAS IN MARCH 2018. I ALMOST HIT A SMALL CAR. I PUT IT INTO PARK AT WHICH TIME THE SHIFTER CABLE BROKE.

RANDOMLY THE TRUCK WOULD NOT STOP AS I TRY AND APPLY THE BRAKES , ITS AS IS I PUSH PETAL TO THE FLOOR AND YOU HEAR A BAD GRINDING A BAD VIBRATION AND FEELS AS IF THE TRUCK IS ABOUT TO DROP A MECHANICAL PIECE FROM UNDERNEATH THE FRONT END .AS I COME TO A LONG AND ROLLING STOP THE BRAKE LIGHT TURNS ON,, I TRY AND PUMP THE BRAKE PETAL AND IT SEEMS AS IF ITS DISCONNECTED FROM THE CABLE, SO I TURN THE TRUCK OFF WAIT A MINUTE AND TURN IT BACK ON... NOW THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 5,6 TIMES THE PAST TIME MY WIFE AND 3 BOYS WHERE IN THE VEHICLE.. IVE DONE RESEARCH AND BEEN ON MANY FORUMS AND KNOW THIS IS A BIG ISSUE AND VERY DANGEROUS, AS WE ARE NOW EXTREMELY NERVOUS TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE ESPECIALLY ON THE EXPRESSWAY ... PLEASE AT LEAST HONOR THE REPAIRS AS I CAN TAKE IT TO A NISSAN BY ME AND HAVE IT FIXED. I LOVE THE TRUCK AND HAVE PUT A LOT OF MONEY TO MODIFYING IT AND ITS VERY DEPENDABLE. BUT NO VEHICLE WILL BE SAFE IF BRAKES RANDOMLY GO OUT... ITS BOUND TO BE A VERY BAD OUTCOME AND WE DONT WANT TO BE A STATISTIC,,,PLEASE HELP US. PLEASE CALL FOR FURTHER INFO AND A RESOLUTION.. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *PM

BREAK LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN I GO TO STOP IT MAKES A GOD AWFUL SOUND. HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE JUNE 1ST 2018. TURNING IF OFF SEEMS TO CLEAR THE ISSUE BUT TODAY 3 LIGHTS CAME ON BRAKE, SLIP AND VDS. TURNING IT OFF AND BACK ON DID NOT SEEM TO FIX IT. THIS IS OUR FAMILY VEHICLE AND WE HAVE 3 TO 6 KIDS IN IT AT ALL TIMES. NISSAN NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE!
