On the 2004-2019 Nissan Titan, the Titan is prone to front brake caliper seizing, particularly on the slide pins. Corrosion builds up on the caliper slide pins and bracket, causing the caliper to stick in the applied position. This leads to uneven brake pad wear (inner pad worn significantly more than outer), excessive heat, brake pull, and premature rotor warping. The large and heavy Titan is especially demanding on its brake system, and seized calipers are one of the most common complaints.
Clean and re-grease caliper slide pins with silicone brake grease ($5-10 DIY). Replace caliper slide pin boots if torn. If the caliper piston is seized, replace the caliper ($100-200 per side aftermarket, $150-300 labor). Replace rotors and pads at the same time if damaged by the seized caliper. Service slide pins every brake pad change as preventive maintenance.
