I purchased my 2018 Titan SV in 2020. It was approximately one-year-old at the time and had 20k miles. I have owned the truck for about four years and it now has 57k miles. I really liked this truck until.... In January of this year the engine started knocking. The 5yr/100k mile powertrain warranty had just expired a couple months prior. I took it to the dealer and they confirmed the engine was shot. Then a quick internet search showed that this is a very common issue in 2017-2019 Titans and well known to Nissan. In 2019 they issued Service Bulletin NTB19-057 acknowledging this factory defect. The dealer provided no help because the powertrain warranty had expired. I contacted Nissan Consumer Affairs and after reviewing my case they were "not in a position to offer assistance." So I paid out-of-pocket for a new engine. I have tried contacting Nissan several more times and now I'm just being ignored. This would be a good truck without this issue. But if you own a 2017-2019 Titan that is beyond powertrain warranty, you are taking a $10,000+ gamble everyday. Not every Titan in this year range has the defect, but lots do. Check the Titan forum. The "Engine Knock" thread has 3000+ posts. So do yourself a favor and avoid this truck. If Nissan had stood behind their product and replaced my engine, I would still speak highly of it. But since Nissan is leaving owners to fend for themselves with these enormous repair bills for a known factory defect, AVOID, AVOID, AVOID. I have been a loyal Nissan owner for years but they have lost my business forever. Shame on you Nissan!

Bought this 2018 Titan two years ago and loved it until one of friends that was standing outside my truck said he thought maybe a pulley was going bad on my Truck. I took it to the Dealership to find out it needs a new engine. I bought it with 70,000 miles on it and it only has 81,000 as of today. Luckily I bought a warranty on it and I have to wait 24 to 48 business hours for the warranty company to send an inspector and if they agrees with Dealership another 48 to 48 hours to approve it. Don’t know how long it will take to swap engines if approved. Just beware

Just bought this truck and love it. With the price of trucks these days it seemed like the best value out there. I haven't had it long enough to give it an honest overall or reliability rating, but I suspect I'm pretty spot on. Overall, this vehicle drives very tight, the suspension is very solid, and it's quiet enough. Would recommend.
