2004 Nissan Titan Description
You are bidding on a used, 12 year old truck that we bought brand new. We are the original owners and have all the maintenance records. You can see by the pictures that it is a handsome truck with almost no rust. However, there are a lot of little things that need attention and we are ready to pass it on to someone who has the time and/or money to keep it mechanically sound.
We are selling this truck as is.
Here are some repairs we have done recently:
January 2016 work done:New front and back brake pads and rotorsRemoved rattling heat shieldOil change and fluids checkedRecommended work:
- d/s bank cam sensor is leaking, recommend replacing o ring
- transmission hose from radiator to trans is leaking
- power steering pressure line and return line are leaking, recommend replacing
- serpentine belt excessively worn, recommend replace
- tailpipe is missing, needs exhaust slip pipe
- replace drive belt
- replace rear axles and emergency brake shoes with rear diff service
- replace power steering rack
- replace both upper control arms and alignment
February 2016:Both front hub bearings removed and front assemblies replacedRecommendations from mechanic:
- Brake lines are rusty
- Airbag light is on
- Front brake calipers are sticking, front brakes are dragging
- Replace front brake hoses
- Service engine soon light is on
- Windshield is cracked (about 15 inches, see pictures)
- Needs exhaust repair, replace from converter back.
The truck has three good tires with the fourth at less than 6/32 and a spare with also little tread
Problems we know of:There is a dent in the front grilleThe door latch in the driver's side back door doesn't work and has to be opened from the interiorThe driver's side seat has a tear in it that has been stitched upThe control knob for the fan on the front dash has broken off but can still be manually adjustedThe cup holder spring at the bottom of the front dash doesn't closeThere is a spot of rust at the back of the bedThe plastic guard has fallen off the top of the latch gate
However, this is a great truck. It has a big engine with plenty of power. Because the exhaust needs to be replaced, it is noisy but still drives well. We have noticed on trips over 25 miles, the brakes are smelling hot, either from sticking or from fluid leaking. The interior still looks good. Never smoked in, Has original jack. The seats are in good shape and the height of the truck is comfortable in traffic. The floor carpet has worn under the gas pedal but we have all weather mats over the front seats' carpet. the heat and air conditioning both work great and fast.
The CD player stopped working, but the radio works fine.
All things considered, this truck does not look like it is 12 years old. The bed has plenty of dents and is thoroughly scratched up but the outer body holds a good shine. There are a couple of minor scrapes (see pictures) but the paint job looks good.
The mileage runs about 15 to 18 mpg.
Feel free to ask any questions.
Happy Bidding!
