2017 Titan 5.6L SV - Smooth, Comfortable & Quiet

TWO YEAR UPDATE: The Titan performs well towing our new travel trailer. The trailer is 5,400 lbs, so it's an easy pull for the Titan, even in the mountains of West Virginia. The only warranty item has been to replace the alternator. The service manager said this was the only alternator he had ever replaced in a Titan under warranty. No other issues; I remain very happy with the purchase of the Nissan Titan. 2017 First Impressions: My standard for a new truck was to match the comfort and smoothness of my 2007 Chevy Avalanche. I test drove all of the half-tons and selected the Titan. The truck delivers a quiet ride with a muted V-8 growl and smooth shifting under power. The suspension is well tuned for a truck, delivering a highway ride that is second-to-none. At the SV trim level - comprising the majority of Titan sales - the Comfort and Convenience Package provides most of the options drivers want: 8-way adjustable, heated seats; blind spot warning system; rear camera, running boards, and Class IV hitch with 4/7 pin wiring. Though I liked many features about the Silverado as well, Nissan's 5 year / 100,000 mile bumper-to-bumper warranty tipped the scale to the Titan.

Stay away from Titan

I purchased a new 2017 Nissan Titan and in January 2020 the parking sensors quit working. It spent many trips to the dealer and every time it came back, there was something else wrong. After the 3rd time at the dealer when the A/C quit working I had had enough. I tried to work with Nissan Consumer Affairs and they did not care about their "lemon". The last conversation I had with corporate they gave me the phone number for the Better Business Bureau in case the dealer did not negotiate with me. Not only would Nissan not stand behind their own vehicle issues, they threw the dealer under the bus and backed over them. I just bought a 2020 Honda Ridgeline which I love. Beware of getting any Nissan product, if it does not work you will be on an island.

Performs as Good or Better Than Advertised

I purchased a Titan in November 2016 after years of wanting to buy a pickup truck. There was a great deal of time spent comparing the features, specs, prices, etc., of all full size and midsize pickups on the market. I also test drove many of these pickups, but wanted to wait until the new Titan arrived before making the decision. After a test drive of the Titan, I was quite impressed with the performance, features, and overall value. Within a week of the test drive, I bought one. The Titan comfortably accommodates my family of five and our gear for extended road trips. It cruises down the interstate with no effort and handles snow and mud without issue. It is a very thoughtfully designed vehicle, and I hope it is as reliable as previous Nissan vehicles my family has owned. If I had to buy it again, I would!

2/24/ 17 we purchased a 2017 nissan titan SV what we believed to be a tough work truck with extras. Well within one week we started having issues with the parking sensors and sonar warning light staying on. off the dealership with this truck for repair. a day later they state it was repaired and ready to pick up. on the way home the sonar warning came on and the parking sensor error back on. back to the dealership again, this time they said it needed a right frony sensor, it came in a few days later so the truck was left there for repairs, we received a phone call the truck was ready to pick up. we get to the dealership and upon going out to the truck and starting it the same issues appeared the sonar warning and parking sensor errors again, went right back in the dealership and again the truck was left at the dealership, then service calls us and tells us the truck needs to have the sonar module replaced. so we wait and a couple days later we receive a phone call that the truck is all done and ready to pick up, so back to the dealership only to arrive at the dealership to find out that they have the truck back in the shop again for the same issues/problems and we are being told by the service advisor that once again the truck needs more parts replaced with this tome being a pin for a wire harness/connector. what a blow to us. especially when since the first time this vehicle was taken in the service advisor stated that he checked all connectors and all appeared to be in great shape. so now the truck is still at the dealership waiting parts and repair. We contacted Nissan usa consumer affairs division to file for a lemon and a replacement truck, this is pending and takes weeks. the dealership will only do a trade towards another truck which cost us several thousand dollar loss on the trade, NO WAY! apparently this dealership service has been in contact with Nissan tech dept. and being told try this and that which so far nothing has worked to fix the issues. Now we are very skeptical of these trucks especially since this is a new truck with very little miles on it. what next?

I have had this truck for a month. It drives very well. So far I love this truck even my wife loves it even more. Only but so far is mileage I am getting 14.3 miles on the city. I have not driven outside of the city to see what kind of miles I will get.
