2011 Nissan Titan

THE FIRST ISSUE IS THE A/C SYSTEM. WHEN THE SYSTEM IS BEING RUN ON THE MAXIMUM SETTING THERE IS A AUDIBLE TICKING SOUND. THIS SOUND HAS BEEN ATTRIBUTED TO A PART INSIDE THE AC UNIT THAT'S MADE OF PLASTIC THAT GOES BAD REALLY QUICK. THE RESULT OF THIS IS NO AC OR NO HEAT AND A VERY EXPENSIVE COST TO REPAIR. THE ENTIRE DASH HAS TO BE REMOVED TO ACCOMPLISH THE REPAIR. THE SECOND ISSUE IS THE (BCM) BODY CONTROL MODULE. THIS MODULE CONTROLS ALL THE ACCESSORY ELECTRONICS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE (TPMS, DOOR LOCKS, HORNS, LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, WINDOWS, TRAILER HITCH ETC.) NISSAN KNOWS THIS IS AN ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE HUNDREDS OF POST ONLINE ABOUT VARIOUS MODELS OF THEIR VEHICLES WITH BCM ISSUES. HOWEVER THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. THERE ARE HUNDREDS MANY THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES THAT DON'T HAVE WORKING ELECTRONICS BECAUSE NISSAN HASN'T DONE A RECALL AND THE PARTS OF TOO EXPENSIVE FOR THE CUSTOMERS TO FIX. MY VEHICLE IS A 2011 WITH 58000 MILES AND NONE OF THE DOOR LOCKS WORK WHEN TRYING TO USE THE KEY FOB. THE TPMS COMES AND GOES WHENEVER IT WANTS TO. I'VE HAD THE SYSTEM REPROGRAMMED AND THE ISSUES STILL REMAIN.

WHEN OPERATING A/C CLIMATE CONTROLS, THE HEATER DOES NOT BLOW HOT AIR, BUT RATHER COLD AIR. WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN ONE DAY, I HAD SET THE CONTROLS TO DE-FOG THE WINDSHIELD, ONLY TO MAKE THE SCENARIO MUCH WORSE DUE TO ABSENCE OF HOT AIR NEEDED TO DEHUMIDIFY THE INTERIOR. VISIBILITY FROM WINDSHIELD WAS GREATLY REDUCED AND COULD HAVE VERY EASILY RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN NOTED MULTIPLE TIMES THROUGH OTHER SOURCES. AFTER CALLING NISSAN TO EXPLAIN THE ISSUE, THE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THAT A RECALL HAD BEEN PERFORMED IN DECEMBER OF 2011. ALTHOUGH I CAN FIND NO EVIDENCE OF THE RECALL, OTHER THAN THROUGH NISSAN ITSELF, I CAN SAY THAT THE PART THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPAIRED IS NO LONGER IN OPERATION, AND CONTINUES TO BE A RISK.
