Example complaints

“When coming to a stop(rolling stop) the truck will jerk ROUGH. Which causes the truck to lunge forward. Multiple times have I almost hit the car in front of me causing an accident. Took vehicle to Nissan 2 times. First time I was informed. “ It’s the characteristics of the truck” which blew my mind. Second time I took it the mechanic was able to replicate the issue. It’s now been 2 weeks since the second visit and nothing has been done. A brand new truck. And already with problems with 4,800 miles ONLY!!”

NHTSA complaint #11559032, filed 2023-12

“Transmission. When coming to a stop the truck lurches forward from a hard downshift that can potentially cause a rear end collision. I have taken to two Nissan dealerships (Marietta, Ga and Roswell, Ga) and both claimed they could not replicate this issue. I am not sure when the problem started as the salesman drove it from Carrollton, Ga to Marietta for me to purchase. The first time it happened to me was at 150 miles. The truck is currently at 4,500 miles and continues to shift incorrectly. There are no warning lights and the dealership refuses to spend any time solving the problem. …”

“2024 Nissan Titan PRO-4X with less than 1,000 miles. When braking to make a complete stop the 9 speed transmission surges and the truck uncontrollably lurches forward almost causing rear end crash into another vehicle.

The contact stated that while attempting to accelerate from a stop, the transmission was slipping, and the vehicle jolted and jerked while shifting between 4th and 5th gears. The contact stated that while attempting to stop the vehicle, there was an abnormal clunking sound coming from the transmission, with the vehicle jolting. There was no warning light illuminated.

NHTSA complaint #11675585, filed 2025-07, 9,000 miles

“The automatic transmission in my 2024 Nissan Titan PRO-4X intermittently malfunctions when slowing to a stop. As the vehicle decelerates to about 1–2 mph, there is a distinct “bump” or “lurch” as if the truck has been lightly rear-ended. The sensation occurs most often at traffic lights or rolling stops. •Component/system failed: Power Train – Automatic Transmission (9-speed). Vehicle is available for inspection upon request. •Safety risk: The unexpected jolt can cause distraction and abrupt braking. …”
