Example complaints
Engine: “Worst dealership my husband and I ever dealt with. We purchased a 2019 Nissan XD Titan Diesel with warranty. Two days after purchase, the check engine light came on. I called Spencer from the service department to let them know. They took the truck the very next day; it was some issue with the gas tank, so the part was back-ordered. After getting that fixed, the check engine light still never went off. I questioned the dealership; all they could say was it was probably a dirty sensor. …”
NHTSA complaint #11737834, filed 2026-05Electrical system: “Not running, doors closed, doors open random . Radio comes on. Can shift mode (radio station/cd player/ etc) dealer has put on radio tech note. Nothing done. Battery was replaced within first 6 months. Nissan offered 1500 to drop it.. No further action has been done.. They closed my account because I refused to accept theyre cover up, I thought was radio but dont know .. They have witnessed it.”
NHTSA complaint #11405232, filed 2021-03, 50 milesTransmission and drivetrain: “My 2019 Nissan Titan, with only 6500 miles, has twice failed to shift from lower gear when pulling away from a stoplight or stop sign causing me to have to pull out of traffic on a city street. Eventually, it shifted as normal. The electrical issue is more perplexing. Without having the ignition key in even remotely close proximity to, and with the vehicle stationary and not running, the vehicle radio begins playing.”

Most notable between 65-72mph. Have had it to the dealer 3 times. 1st time, they said it was the tires as there were new and overinflated. Told to drive it a few hundred miles. 2nd time at dealer, the road forced balanced and replaced a tire. No fix. 3rd time, a service tech actually rode with me. Let the vibrations, noted them as well. After we arrived back to the dealer, waited 20 minutes until the service tech came back. …”
