I have the 2018 pretty much same set up as yours pro 4x but my top five like and don't like are ... What I like: Sound system V8 sound Cargo lamp lighting Seats are comfortable Stock ground clearance for off-road use Dislikes: Agree with paint. The amber lighting on all knobs and buttons does not match the cluster. Stereo is slow. Collumn shifter is flimsy . With the mirrors were power folding it's a hassle when I take it to a carwash.
'18 SV owner. Have the truck little more than a year, bought it new. Have had a couple small issues already, but fixed under warranty. Active grille shutters broke behind the grille on its own, replaced with new unit. Radio/GPS unit went black couple times, re-programmed by dealer. Other than that it's a great truck, strong and comfortable. My only gripe- the 7 speed transmission acts weird sometimes, but not a big deal. Swapping out the stock shocks for Bilstein 4600's only because I want to
Michael Belmonte i have a ‘18 titan sl, been having heated seat issues. Doesnt get hot just lukewarm. Got it tested at dealership they ran a continuous test with the voltage and recorded low temp on the leather seat for a while. They said since its not a heated/cooled seat and just a heated seat its an element based heating(no fan under seat)so its as hot as it will get. Total bs i think...plus they said the seats are pretty thick leather which can also be the cause...dunno what else to try under the warranty
I think my active grill shutter is broke too. It runs real loud intermittently i replaced the fan clutch kit. Still does it. If i turn my a/c off it stops 🤷🏾♂️
(Not from an owners perspective) My Top 5 Dislikes for the 2017 Titan Pro 4X: 5. No Moon (or sun, what's the difference?) roof. I also prefer black headliners. 4. Pro 4X Badge is bland 3. Pro 4X Wheels are not my taste, look too pedestrian, need to me more masculine and off-road like the WARRIER 2. Your Paint Problems 1. 7" Touch Screen is too small for a Dash that is Huge My Top 5 Likes for the 2017 Titan Pro 4X 5. Warrier Like Design on Outside and Inside, nice road presence 4. Safety Systems 3. TITAN name plate in general sounds awesome when you say, I have a TITAN 2. Reliability/Longevity, built and designed in AMERICA 1. 390 HP Endurance V8 is powerful Thanks for doing this video Dave or Nissan Nation Productions!!
Hmm, the big debate. I had a 1974 Dodge Charger SE, that had a Moon Roof. I asked them what was the difference and was told a sun roof has glass, a moon roof matches the roof panel (No Glass). Still loved it and the car as well. But, at 422,000 miles it was time to retire her from daily service. It was a very fast but thirsty car (440, 4 barrel)
Nice video! I own a 2017 Titan SV. Not a bad list my dislikes are a lot different than yours 5) Shifting of the 7-speed automatic transmission - tried to address with software flashes and finally replaced the trans with new 9 or 10 speed on the 2020. 4) The entertainment system - come on 7 inch screen? not to mention the Nissan apps :-( 3) Yes, the tires are terrible, mine are chaffing on the edges. 2) Ok, the paint is a problem but I purchased a hood wind deflector, which helps. 1) IMHO, the aftermarket market is slow to make accessories for these trucks. My likes - 5)The engine and stock exhaust sound - Awesome! Yes, I heard about the #7 cylinder problems and engine knock but knock on wood, I haven't experienced it yet! 4) The warranty - 5 years or 100,000 miles this is what put me over the edge to pull the trigger on this truck and so far, I haven't had to use it 3) The truck bed - the tailgate, LED lights, step and the uni-rail tie down system 2) the utility of the back seat and floor system. 1) Overall the truck is solid! Don't get wrapped around the axle on the order of my takes. Your comment on the tires with the lettering wearing out, I hope you are rotating the tires making your point moot on the rears shouldn't show wear on the lettering, just saying, not hating. Again, nice video!
I have a 2019 Titan. My only real complaint is the steering feel. It has speed sensitive steering but it seems backwards from what other manufacturers do. Usually speed sensitive steering is easier to turn at low speed and stiffens up at higher speed. The Titan is stiffer at low speed and gets softer at higher speeds. Also, and maybe it’s the VDC system reacting to wind, etc... on the highway but the resistance in the wheel on the highway seems to fluctuate. It’s not a huge difference but sometimes I could be holding steady in a turn and the resistance in the wheel suddenly lightens up a bit. The feeling is similar to my wife’s Subaru when the lane keep assist activates, the wheel gets lighter while the car steers itself (except I don’t have that in my Titan)
Excuse my bad English folks. I purchase a brand new Titan sv 2017. At 17000 kilometres, the engine begin knocking. At 24000 kilometres, in June 2019, Nissan replace my motor (short block). Now this month at 35000 kilometres my motor knocking again. It is always the cylinder number 7 who is problematic. Real epidemic trouble. In my small town we are 3/3 with this trouble. On Facebook pages, I’ve seen A LOT of cases, I see guys who are on third motor on 2018 model. Also see people with this problem on 2019 model (Titan, armada.) Nissan seems to don’t have a clue about this problem. The 7 speed transmission on 16-19’ model doesn’t works well too, and seems to be change very often . Long story short, run for your life, you can see a video of my titan knocking on my profile. I swear to god, I don’t beat the truck at all really lite works sometimes.
I have seen this issue also. So far my 2017 has been great at 90k miles. I heard that there was a batch of 2017s and 2018s with the cylinder 7 issue but not all of these trucks were affected.
I'm glad they took the badge off the non XD trucks. I think the Pro4X has one of the cleanest profiles on the market. I really hate the tail lights on my 19- they should be LED.
Hector Silva that’s what I’m confused about. I have a ‘19 SV. The msrp sticker shows “LED tail lamps”....what is the difference between tail lights and tail lamps. Is it the 3rd light above the bed the sticker is talking about? My tail lights are definitely not led from I can tell
@@John-vh1fk The brake lights are LED, and have been since 2016 when the gen 2 was released. Perhaps he was refering to the turn indicators and running lights. On mine, they were incandesent, but, now are also LED. Because I have a 2017 Titan SV King Cab, LED headlight were not a factory option, so, I upgraded those to LED as well as the Fogs..... Made a huge difference when it did not come from the factory that way.
The paint chips are not the issue, the debris that causes them is. I have PPF paint protection film on my Frontier and I dont have to worry about following a salt truck or construction vehicle too closely.
I own a 2017 SV King Cab. My complaints are very few. One: Navigation screen cannot be seen very well in sunlight. Two: Backup camera very low resolution. Three: Wish that the around view camera system was available on the SV King Cab (It was not when I bought mine.) No other wishes or complaints. A big step up from my 03 Frontier, which never ever left me stranded. Four: Nissan needs to have a larger version, such as a true 3/4 or even a 1 ton, and even option the 8 foot bed that some of us desire. I would trade in a heartbeat! Oh, and I have not had your issue with the paint. But, I understand, and would be upset as well.
@@NissanPodcast You also need to be more specific about the description of the video. This isn't the 2020 Nissan Titan. This video just came too late that there's already a 2020 model.
paint on my titan sucks, the dealer repainted the hood. The paint inside the truck-bed blew off at he car wash, The primer is army green. I had it painted with armor coat inside the bed. It gets 16 mpg, sometimes better. Yesterday at 24,500 miles the muffler blew apart, the dealer fixed it under warranty but said watch out for the catalytic converter. seriously? There is a bad shimmy in the passenger seat bottom. something is not right, dealer said it was a can of cat food rolling around under the seat (It is not). Generally a nice truck that looks great.
I have the same '17 PRO-4X in the same color combo... That dash trim on the passenger side, it's not the only place it's at, there is a matching piece to the left of the steering wheel. I don't particularly like it, but if they were going to do it why didn't they put a matching piece to the right of the steering wheel?
Titan owners, have you ever had any problem or issues with the endurance motor? Just curious how many of you would love to see Nissan make Titan its own stand alone brand? I personally think Nissan badging is hurting the trucks appeal.
Because you think American buyers would be more open to some random brand named titan that they never heard of? Also what would they even have in their lineup? Nissan only makes the titan and frontier as far as trucks go. Compared to like Ram that makes cargo vans, 1500,2500,3500,4500,5500 trucks and the Dakota (rip)
So you're complaining about interior trim pieces scratchi, and your biggest complaint is rock chips. Not the fact that the 5.6L gas engine in these have a bad reputation for scored cylinder bores. They a near 100% failure rate. But you then listed that the engine is your favorite part. But ownership history has shown it to be the most problematic. Coming from a current 19 Pro4X 5.6L owner with a knocking engine due to scored cylinder bores.
I do not share the smame desires in a truck as you. My fave thing about pro4x is the rear locking differential although I believe I wil be happy with an S model 4wd, spare the butt warmers and fancies but leave the V8 and 4wd, with a king cab is plenty
I own a 2017 Nissan titan V8. One of the worst things I do not like about this vehicle would be the gas pedal! I can never get my foot adjusted in the right position. It is very awkward!

We had this one for 3 years and ZERO issues with it
Lol...just bought one, 50xxx.....paint chip problems on hood too! Gonna have repainted, but, damn....50?
How can I get better gas mileage out of my 06 Nissan Titan 10 miles to the gallon kind of sucks

Do you have step and hitch? I have an XD with both but on my BIL 19 non XD online said he couldn’t do both.
We did have the hitch plus drop down step
The sound quality of this mic when the wind blows is painful. This can be fixed for like $10. DO IT!!!
Weve upgraded all our equipment since but we agree this wasnt the best.
I have the same paint issue with my Armada Platinum Reserve. Took it to the dealer and they said it was not an issue. Very disappointing.
Its a pain for sure
General Grabbers in my opinion are junk!
Not enough interior colord i want lighter color in 4x
