The rear axle seals on my 2004 nissan titan are leaking and allowing differential oil to coat my rear brakes causing unsafe braking conditions.

2004 le 4x4 offroad-big tow package with 62,900. Miles. I was leaving my apt. Made a right turn, started to increase speed to 25-35 MPH when a clunk noise came from my rear end. I stop to check it out and did not notice anything out of place. Started back up and it continued. So I went straight to the dealership. After they looked at it, they show me metal peaces and how the gear was skipping. There recommendation was replacement of the whole rear end. I'm an easy driver, have not pulled any loads with my truck. 60 months 60,000 miles is the warranty. I'm just outside that by close to 3,000. I…

Service Brakes, Hydraulic · at 30 miles · reported Nov 5, 2007

While driving at approx. Speed of 30 MPH and applying brakes there was a scraping noise and light braking. I traveled approx. 1 mile further and applied brakes with little braking action and scraping noise heard again. Turned engine off and checked vehicle. Re-started engine and all function appeared normal. A week later same action accrued again. I took vehicle to dealership where the ABS system was found to be bad. Replaced delta stokes sensor and reprogrammed ECU.

Service Brakes, Hydraulic · reported Aug 27, 2007

Third brake failure! Brake lights come on and brakes are grating/grinding. Not the same issue as before- no shaking. I was not able to brake. If I turn off the car and wait 15 min.- the issue is resolved. The dealership has looked at it and noted "no problem". Unless it occurs when they have it, they cannot solve it. The last failure occurred on the highway to illinois and lasted 20 minutes. Had to restart the car several times before the waiting period worked and the brakes worked again. This is not poor brake maintenance. This is an inherent problem with the '04.
