2017 Nissan Titan Reviews

My titan gives me the smooth ride and has all the power I require. The truck has a v8 power plant and has 7 gears forward. The color is coffee bean, there is plenty of room the 4 door crew cab is most advantages for load up the kids. The seats are leather and very comfortable. There is storage under the back seat and a lid that folds out to allow shorter legs to touch the floor. The bed has plenty of room for hauling and the tailgate locks. Rear view mirrors adjust from inside the cab, power windows and a window locking feature that locks all the drivers window. Gear shift is column mounted with phone and volume controls. This truck in my opinion is the best Nissan has produced.

I've a $56K headache Platinum Reserve which I bought due the better warranty. I was pleased until after being stranded 2,000 miles from home I was away and took the truck into the dealer for an oil change and tire rotation before the long trip home. The dealer found a timing chain leak fixed it under warranty, then found 2 bad engine mounts, replaced those 2 days later they found 2 bad brake lines but didn't have the parts to replace them and couldn't tell me when they would get them only it could take as long as 30 days. I was told to take their rental 2,000 mile back home and they call when they got the parts and said I'd have 2 days to return the rental loaner or pay for it, I said it was a 3 day drive. I was referred to Nissan corporate customer service, I called them and was given a case number and promised a call back within 24 hours. That call never came, I left for home. 4 Days later Nissan cust. Serv, e-mails me asks for a number and time to call me, I gave them the number and next day time, again no call, I called them twice leaving voice mails messages. After 8 days the dealer called said my truck was repaired and ready for pick up so I had to leave the following morning for the 3 day trip to return the loaner and get my truck. Nissan cust serv. Finally called on the 8th day when I asked if I would be reimbursed for my travel expenses of 2,000 miles/3 days each way I was told to submit my receipts. I submitted 4 nights hotels and 3 meals and gas. They would only reimburse me for the hotel and food not the fuel which accounted for more than 3/4 of the total expense, I stated that was unacceptable and an insult given their lack of communication, parts availability and all the problems I had with this truck with only 30K miles on it. It had 3 prior recalls, a seat replacement due poor workmanship, power steering fluid was bad and had to be replaced and I had requested they check the temp controls that were not functioning properly when they did the oil change and after having the vehicle over a week they never addressed that issue and that repair is still pending. I've since sent a letter to the North American President but have yet to get a reply. On my 4,000 mile trip I found that the cruise control was useless because the transmission kept shifting and searching which gear it should be in. This truck gets only 14 mpg normal driving and towing it's less than 10 mpg. For an 8 speed transmission I would expect better. I only still have it because no one wants it or will give much for it, 3 yrs old with 30K miles and its lost 50% of its value. I now refer to it as a Nosasan I'll never own another Nissan vehicle they customer service doesn't care and their vehicles are junk. I was also told my the dealer's mechanic the motor mounts will fail yet again due the engine heat and high engine torque. So they replaced sub par parts with the same sub par quality knowing they won't last. Buyer beware!

I bought this vehicle as a diesel option to pull a camper. For this purpose, it did very well at towing a 6,000 lb camper. However for the other 90% of the time you are not pulling a large trailer, this is not the best option as a daily driver. The gas mileage for around town averaged around 14/15 mpg and didn't get much better on the interstate only increasing to 15/16 mpg. I went with the smaller 5.0 liter in hopes it would get decent gas mileage, however have come to find that there are larger motor options on the market that are getting better fuel mileage and have more power. I am not sure if it is a common thing for all turbo diesels, but the Nissan titan xd suffers severely from turbo lag. I have had many occasions where I would pull out into traffic and it would become quite scary when I wouldn’t get the instant throttle response that you would be expecting. This truck also has a process that burns off the fuel residue that is produced from the diesel exhaust fluid. When this process occurs, it knocks your gas mileage down to around 5 mpg for at least 10-15 miles. The routine maintenance for this vehicle is a little more than I was used too. That added cost of routine fuel filter changes was about $150 more than just your typical standard oil change would cost. Although there are a few flaws with the vehicle, I have enjoyed it as my first diesel truck that I have owned. There are several positive aspects to this truck. It is an overall very smooth ride compared to other 3/4 and 1 ton trucks I have rode in. This truck is considered to be a heavy 1/2 ton pickup which made it a little lighter but had more substantial chassis to handle pulling and stopping a large trailer.

Only bad was the learning curve on its blind spots, wide feelingness , n mirrors took getting use to other then that BEST truck I've ever owned rd. N I'm about to b 39 work Construction pull a 35 ft toy hauler that's weighs 9,000lbs bone dry n have owned a isuzu 1984 p,up , 1989gmc Sierra 1ton 7.4L ,2002 Chevy Silverado 4.8L, 2008 Chevy Silverado 5.3L , 2016 Ram 5.7 hemi ,, this seriously is the Best truck out of all of them hands down , no contest....

Had the engine replaced at 30K kms and now at 70k km I need a engine replacement again for the same lifter issue as before. But Nissan's response is we will fix it right this time. What did you do the first time? Now 3 years into my warranty and not sure what will happen when the warranty runs out in two more years as this is the only saving grace is that the repairs are covered by the warranty. But hey I was told the engine will be replaced in the last month once we get the parts in. Haven't heard from Nissan and cannot get a hold of them at Rally E Nissan.

My 2017 nissan titan sv is an upgrade from my former truck the nissan frontier. It has a full size cab with plenty of room for my whole family including a dog. I have been very impressed with its capabilities- I easily towed a 25’ airstream camper off some remote land in a foot of snow. I had no problems off roading in the mountains getting to some remote hiking and fishing. I use my truck for my small landscaping business and have been pleased with the capacity of the bed for hauling materials. My family and I enjoy taking the truck for weekend adventures in the mountains because of the space and comfort it provides as well as the versatility it provides. I love the push button start and the fact that I can not lock the keys in the truck.

I bought my titan brand new not one issue all black wet sanded and buffed and polished it's the nicest in my town.i use all high end synthetic royal purple 0w20 for my engine differentials 75w90 and transfer case always premium fuel it pays off in the long run good fuel means no fuel additives ,I have 91000km on it and no leaks under truck I have owned every other brand truck my friend said go take a titan for a test drive I bought it when I got back to dealer ship I Love it!!

I love our Nissan titan sl. Although I was concerned at the beginning to drive a big truck, I would never change to another one. I feel comfortable and safe in it and as you sit a little bit higher you have a good overview of the traffic. The one thing I am missing is a digital speed indication because I had this in my previous car and was used to it. I never had any problems. I am also very grateful that it has three seats in the back and if you fold them up you have plenty of storage space (good for moving). The truck comes also with an integrated navigation system, which is fine but could be better. Sometimes the directions are not very clear because the screen does not show the traffic signs as the appear on the interstate for example. The car needs a lot of gas, which is not the most ideal for us but on the other hand we need a truck for our business. Another little thing that because of the size of the car, we are not able to put it into a garage.

Likes- the power is great. Drives fantastic in the snow. Nice comfortable interior. Dislikes- Bluetooth not compatible with apple ios 11 and newer cuts out constantly. Doesnt like extremely cold weather i have had a few issues with check engine lights in sub 10 degree weather. Dash shakes on rough roads seems cheap. And worst of all truck has a vibration/shake issue. I have had it to the dealer 10-15 times over the past 10months and neither the dealer or nissan can resolve any of these issues. Seems pretty shady for a $40,000 truck
