The 2024NISSANTITAN carries 17 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 0 crashes, 0 fires, 0 injuries, and 0 fatalities. No NCAP 5-star crash-test rating is available for this model year in the federal database.
Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2024 TITAN is power train with 9 filings, followed by unknown or other (2) and service brakes (1). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability. This model year has 2 active recall campaigns, which means the manufacturer is obligated to remedy the covered defect at no charge for the life of the vehicle — the full NHTSA campaign numbers are listed below.
NHTSA currently has 54 investigation files overlapping the 2024 TITAN, and 5 remain open. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page — a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration.

The engine just shut off. I was in traffic moving up to a light and the vehicle just shut down. The second time when I was exiting the freeway got to the yield sign and the vehicle just shut down. The third time was turning left and the vehicle just shut down. the fourth time I was in traffic that was coming to a stop and the vehicle shut down. 5th time I was turning slow rate and the vehicle shut off. 6th and 7th time were in stop and go traffic as it was decelerating. The 8th time coming up to a stop sign and the vehicle shut off. I took the vehicle to Nissan 2 different locations and since there are no codes they can't duplicate the error. My fear is what happens if this shuts down at speed. There was no warning, no rough idle or anything significant. The vehicle has been looked at two different Nissan Dealership without being able to confirm or reproduce the problem. The worst factor is the fear my wife has about the vehicle just shutting off.
The automatic transmission in my 2024 Nissan Titan PRO-4X intermittently malfunctions when slowing to a stop. As the vehicle decelerates to about 1â2 mph, there is a distinct âbumpâ or âlurchâ as if the truck has been lightly rear-ended. The sensation occurs most often at traffic lights or rolling stops. â¢Component/system failed: Power Train â Automatic Transmission (9-speed). Vehicle is available for inspection upon request. â¢Safety risk: The unexpected jolt can cause distraction and abrupt braking. It raises concerns about long-term durability and could increase the risk of a rear-end collision in traffic. â¢Reproduced/confirmed: Yes. I reported this under warranty to a Nissan dealer. The dealer replaced a transmission bracket, but the issue persists. The downshift/lurch can still be reproduced. â¢Inspected by others: The dealer service department has inspected it. Manufacturer has not provided a lasting fix. â¢Warning lamps/messages: No warning lights or diagnost
The contact owns a 2024 Nissan Titan. The contact stated that while attempting to accelerate from a stop, the transmission was slipping, and the vehicle jolted and jerked while shifting between 4th and 5th gears. The contact stated that while attempting to stop the vehicle, there was an abnormal clunking sound coming from the transmission, with the vehicle jolting. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer to be diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the TCM needed to be reprogrammed. The contact also stated that water was leaking through the sunroof. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 9,000.

Transmission. When coming to a stop the truck lurches forward from a hard downshift that can potentially cause a rear end collision. I have taken to two Nissan dealerships (Marietta, Ga and Roswell, Ga) and both claimed they could not replicate this issue. I am not sure when the problem started as the salesman drove it from Carrollton, Ga to Marietta for me to purchase. The first time it happened to me was at 150 miles. The truck is currently at 4,500 miles and continues to shift incorrectly. There are no warning lights and the dealership refuses to spend any time solving the problem. I took the service manager for a drive and he confirmed that there is an issue and said he would open a service ticket. Three weeks later he said the mechanic cannot duplicate the problem and says the truck drives normally.
vehicle has 2900 miles, it has a noticeable hum/whining sound coming from rear end area. sound is very pronounced at 46-50 mph under throttle. Issue has been addressed with a local dealership. They found metal shavings in the rear end assembly. Their assessment is such that the rear differential has prematurely failed. They recomend replacing the rear differential carrier at 2900 mi, mind you. That said, they warned the vehicle has the potential of causing a "lock up" but have made no concerted effort to actually replace the part. instead, they claim the part is order
I want to put on record that the rear camera system is not able to be adjusted to a point where you can visually see after dark. To further the issue, The reverse lamps are not adequately bright enough to safely back up using the mirrors at night. I do understand this is the last model year for this vehicle however there is surely an issue that can be resolved by Nissan. After having the issue myself I had looked online and find a disturbing amount of complaints related to the issue.

The vehicle lurches forward during stopping for a traffic light, stop sign, etc. Feels like a possible transmission issue, like a hard downshift, but the lurch is a safety issue. Has been happeneing since the truck was purchased, and the dealer service has been unable to resolve. Service manager drove in the truck and confirmed the jolt forward. Forums indicate this issue is occurring with other 2024 Titan trucks. The lurch forward can interfere with stopping distance since the lurch is stronger than the braking efficiency during that sudden jolt. This issue has been ongoing since November 2023 with no resolution.

Truck (intermittently) downshifts hard and (intermittently) lurches forward when coming to a complete stop. The issue is worse when stopping at a slower rate of speed than when from stopping abruptly (maybe because this is an issue shifting from 2nd into 1st at a slow speed rather than shifting from 3rd to 1st during a more aggressive quicker stop). Feels like the transmission is fluttering between park and 1st gear and (intermittently) at very slow stopping speeds and will give a sensation similar to that of being hit from behind. (Not saying this is happening, but rather what it feels like when this is happening). Seems like a gear alignment problem or a solenoid/shift module acting erratic. It does cause some concerning safety issues because it can unexpectedly "lurch" forward when coming to a stop and you may assume your fully stopped when a burst jolting you forward happens out of nowhere. This erratic behavior also makes me concerned about premature transmission wear and premat
Transmission jerks when decelerating to a stop. Itâs as if it drops to the wrong gear and then tries to correct. Does this every time. Causes the truck to lurch and jerk.
2024 Nissan Titan PRO-4X with less than 1,000 miles. When braking to make a complete stop the 9 speed transmission surges and the truck uncontrollably lurches forward almost causing rear end crash into another vehicle. Nissan dealer where purchased said its a software problem and Nissan is working on a fix soon. Online owner forums indicate this is a known issue and Nissan has been promising a fixed since 2021!!!
When coming to a stop(rolling stop) the truck will jerk ROUGH. Which causes the truck to lunge forward. Multiple times have I almost hit the car in front of me causing an accident. Took vehicle to Nissan 2 times. First time I was informed. â Itâs the characteristics of the truckâ which blew my mind. Second time I took it the mechanic was able to replicate the issue. Itâs now been 2 weeks since the second visit and nothing has been done. A brand new truck. And already with problems with 4,800 miles ONLY!!
