I don't see why NHTSA wouldn't open one soon on this problem with the Titan.

Call the DOT Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236) and a NHTSA representative will record your complaint information.

Your complaint information will be entered into NHTSA's vehicle owner's complaint database and used with other complaints to determine if a safety-related defect trend exists.

* If a safety-related defect exists in a motor vehicle or item of motor vehicle equipment, the manufacturer must fix it at no cost to the owner. Your complaint is the first step in the process.

* Government engineers analyze the problem. If warranted, the manufacturer is asked to conduct a recall. If the manufacturer does not initiate a recall, the government can order the manufacturer to initiate a recall.

* We do not have to receive a specific number of complaints before we look into a problem. We gather all available information on a problem. Your complaint is important to us.

For a prompt response from NHTSA, send your information request, suggestions, or comments to webmaster@nhtsa.dot.gov.
Definitely file if your differential had/has problems, but for any of you guys that are just having some fun/trolling, don't file because it is most likely a federal crime being it's a government site. [Like filing a false police report]. I'd hate to see some Ford or Ridgeline guy spending his best years in a Federal Pen.
