Can't help you with the rest of the stuff, but when I had my 04 Titan it did the downshift when going down a steep hill as well. I never thought anything of it, never bothered the truck in the 56k miles I drove it.
Anyway, thanks for the info as I'm sure I'll have the problems again.....
I will tell you this, I love the truck but I will never buy another Nissan vehicle do to their lack of customer service and willingness to fix a problem that is so obvious for many Titan owners.
Is it possible that some other person's remote keyless system is working my windows? Anyone else have this problem or heard of it?
This has never happened anywhere except in the parking lot at work. I've got 50,000 miles on the truck so you would think it would have happened somewhere else besides work. That was why I wondered if someone unique to our parking lot could be causing some interference in the system.
I probably knew when I first bought the truck that you could hold the remote down for a couple seconds and the windows would come down. Haven't done it since then and completely forgot about it. Obyone's comments made me think.
I'm on the second floor of the building but only maybe 50' from where I park the truck. Yes, I keep the keys in my rear pocket and my butt faces the window. I just tried to lower the windows from my desk....yes, they went down. That's why it never happened anywhere else....circumstances don't match anywhere else.
Thanks for solving the problem. LOL.
Glad you figured it out.
When the truck went into the dealership for warranty work, I used to get a rental from Enterprise who usually had a Silverado or Ram to use so I guess I wasn't severely compromised as in getting stuck in a Sentra.
whatever it is ....i smashed it and want to know if anyone knows of an aftermarket replacement.
it's the molded painted plastic cover over the real bumper and holds the fog lights.
thanks!

seen them on Ebay.
thanks!

It turns out that I have noticed a common theme throughout the forums. Each forum about a particular truck is filled with complaints and problems and "I'm at the last straw" attitudes. So I guess it just goes to show that all manufacturers are going to have problems whether it be GM, Nissan, Dodge or Toyota...
Nissan refuses to address the problem or admit that there is a problem. On the 2008 Models, Nissan has increased the size of the rotors on the front brakes. Maybe its me, but doesn't the fact that they did this indicate that they know they HAD a design error? I will not back off of this and hope to gather enough of Nissans' Customers to make them correct this issue. Please reply on this site once you see my email.
Thanks...........
Sorry to hear about your troubles. Yes, I've experienced the same problems. I have the 2004 Titan and experienced similar problems. I had my front rotars and brake pads redone at just under 30K miles. Then I to experienced it again within about 25K miles. Then again. Finally, they put the "kit" on my truck and it appeared to fix the problem until I reached about 62K. Then it happened again. I contacted Nissan and they told me it was not under warranty any longer. I told them that it was an obvious ongoing problem and that the "kit" didn't fix the issue. They washed their hands of it. So I contacted the BBB and after sending all of the paperwork to them, it was disturbing to find out that they could do nothing for me because of the year of my vehcile. I pretty much told Nissan that I would never buy another vehicle from them ever again, which I won't. I do love my truck and plan to keep it. I am going to look into putting ceramic pads, etc. on it myself. But I can assure you that I will never do business with Nissan ever again. I hope they realize that this will cost them in the long run since they lost me as a customer and they can be positve that I will pass on my negative views of Nissan products to everyone and anyone who will listen.
Let me know how things go and if I can be of assistance. I'd love to have Nissan fix this problem for me.
My rear brakes wore out at 24K miles. Asked the dealer why did they wear so fast while the fronts still looked like new? They replied that's how it is and quoted me $350 to cut the rotors and replace the pads. I told them forget it and replaced the rears with ceramics. Going on 40K miles with no brake issues.
1. driver side window will not operate, I haven't tried in a while because when it does work, it will go down but not up.
2. Truck seems to die when idling sometimes, seems like it is dieing more often now.
3. while the cruise control is on it will shut-off by it's self. sometimes when trying to reset it the "set" light will blink and it will not set.
4. the check engine light is intermittent. It will stay on for 3 to 4 days than next time in the truck it won't come on.
I know these are alot of problems but can someone help???? Please!!!!!
On the check engine light a code has been set and needs to be downloaded via an OBD II code reader. Most of the auto parts stores could do it for you for free.
The 04 also had grounding issues that could cause your idling issues.
Haven't heard anything about the cruise control.
anybody else?

P.S. I've had my share of lemons and yes the dealers suck and the manufactures do as well because the could care less thats why I'll never buy a Chrysler/Dodge new again unless it was built before me 1972.
I'd never buy another Nissan again...
Comments anyone?
