Anyone had any problems with a rattle in the front? I believe it is my grille. I just got the truck and only have 1500 miles. Kinda ticked to pay good $ and have a problem so soon. Thanks for any help. :x

I have the same problem; Its actually the fan housing....whenever the fan turns on, it starts rattling because its not secured properly on the radiator....I havent had it fixed yet.

Check the bump stops under the hood. Unscrew them and see if that helps.

Hood, grill, fan, bumper, dash, bed, tailgate, overhead console. Did I leave anything out fellas. all rattle, squeek, bump, tick, chirp, bang. Oh forgot to mention the leaf springs rattle when they get rust on them and another clunk in the drive train, it is still a mistery. My rear seats let out a clatter on rough roads. Wow the door panels will come loose on me too, on rough roads.
You just gotta love plastic.
Hey, if you think I am *****n` bout her querks, you need not worry bout that. I will love My Precious till her wheels fall off.
Just don't be afraid to try fixing the small things yourself. Many of us here have had the same trouble(s) as you have now and will have. It doesn't make her a POS, she is just like fine wine, she just needs time to settle in. Lets just hope the next generations of TITANs will have some of our issues resolved. Cause nothing kills a good thing faster than some wise a$$, $hiz head typing smack about something he(she) knows nothing or very little about. Yah!!!!
Hey welcome to the Club. Don't be afraid, or worried, I don't represent the majority here. I think I am the only zelous minority round these parts.

Don't be so frustrated, All vehicles of every brand have there issues. Titan being a new model, will have more, but nissan is fixing them. I had a first year Durango before this, and Dodge was not good at finding fixes, or caring to fix the problems. The problem with the fan is document in the Do-it-yourself section if you want to save a trip to the dealership. But if not they can fix it for you. I have had several problems, since it was new, but that is the nature of the beast. Good luck.

Thanks for all the help. I love, I mean LOVE!!! the truck. I guess I can fix these noises like I used to in my Chevy; turn up the radio! :D All the more reason I opted for the Rockford Fosgate!!!

there are actual fixes for most of them, so do not be discouraged. You can get it to stop. The aux fan rattling is a easy fix. Today they are tearing apart the whole dash to change the a/c Blower. So it could be much worse.
