When owners complained
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing
out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single
owner can see from inside their own car.

Recalls on the 2022 Nissan Titan
A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which
the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous
enough to fix for free — however old the car is.
Canada — Transport Canada
Canada runs its own recall programme, and its campaigns do not
always mirror the American ones.

Issue: On certain trucks, the transmission parking pawl may not engage when you shift to park. If this happens, the truck could roll away, if the parking brake isn't used. Safety Risk: A parked vehicle that moves suddenly could create the risk of an injury or a crash. Corrective Actions: Nissan will notify owners by mail. The corrective actions for this recall are under development. To reduce the safety risk, Nissan recommends that you should always use the parking brake when you park.

I have noticed this problem a few times, specifically in highway traffic. When getting back up to speed, i have noticed my 2022 Nissan Titan suddenly jerk as I am accelerating back up to the posted speed limit. This has happened a few times. First time I did not pay it to much consideration, but now it's something that worries me. I have also noticed my Automatic Cruise control is having issues staying on when activated. I turn it on, but when I go to set the vehicle speed, I will sometimes get a malfunction warning. I love using the Automatic Cruise Control for its safety and to set the speed limit when I drive

STEERING
There was no bolt that holds the undercover after the steering system was replaced. I contacted Victoria Debnam and she told me the service would take care of it. I returned with my Titan and that took a few minutes. I went home and checked the bolt. The new bolt looked different from the OEM bolt. I contacted her and complained but she didn't respond back. Then I contacted the Nissan Affair and they told me to show up. So I showed up and went to see Robert Paolucci about the bolt issue. They put up an OEM bolt as other factory bolt. After a few days later, I went under and inspected the new bolt. The bolt is no longer tightened. I contacted Robert and Jonathan Flores via email and call but they haven't responded back. The previous bolt had already damaged the threaded hole of the frame. I did contact the Nissan Affair about the issue and they haven't responded back. Robert Paolucci texted me and selling tires and I replied back that he needed to contact me about the bolt issue. Since the non-OEM bolt damaged the hole in the frame, which can rust and corrode the frame. The frame repair could be very expensive. I don't know how they address the hole which they need to change the whole frame. The service needs to find a solution to that damage.

I am trying to get an appointment at the Nissan Service in Clarksville, MD about the safety concern. They haven't returned to me after I left numerous messages via text and their office answer machines. My truck acts very oddly at around 40 mph which is very hazard and I did send the video link but they rather not view it until I get an appointment. I did reach the Nissan Consumer Affairs that I have waited long enough but they told me to continue to contact the service and they are aware of it due to the log. I did send the video to both of them but they couldn't view it at their work computer. The truck drifted on the ramp around 40 mph as I captured it. See the video below, at :20, I kept on the gas for around mph, the RPM and MPH dropped and the slippery warning light and the brake system was triggered. I felt like my truck was pulled back when that happened. That is a bit dangerous to drive. I dont see any damages under my truck. Can you escalate the issue to the Nissan and the local service that they should take a look at and take care of it? The truck has plenty of problems and it is only two years old. My old Nissan car almost had no issues and ran hundreds of thousands miles. [XXX] -- INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

SERVICE BRAKES
The parking brake has never been sufficient to prevent the vehicle from rolling slightly even after the vehicle has been placed in park. There is no audible alarm if you back up and the parking brake is set. The engine torque allows you to drive forward and reverse with ease even with the brake set, and a small dash light is the only indication that the brake is still set. When asking the dealership to adjust the brake and fix the issue they require the customer to pay for the service despite the brake being faulty from manufacture.
