How many miles will a 2006 Titan last?
The 376 mileages owners gave run from 335 to 412,560 miles. A quarter are at or under 33,311 miles, half at or under 63,000, three quarters at or under 91,000 and nine in ten at or under 124,895; 72 (19%) came after 100,000 miles, 21 (6%) after 150,000 and 8 (2%) after 200,000.
These mileages say when owners reported a problem, not when a 2006 Titan wears out. NHTSA's file holds only vehicles whose owners complained; one that ran without a problem never appears in it, so it gives no lifespan and no cutoff, and how a vehicle was maintained matters more than any one odometer reading.
Most of these reports came early in the vehicle's life: 304 of the 376 came at or under 100,000 miles. The 72 past that mark show the 2006 Titan still being driven at those mileages, not how many reach them: NHTSA's file counts complaints, not the vehicles on the road.

Is the 2006 Titan a good year?
Complaint counts cannot say whether the 2006 is a good or a bad Titan: they rise with how many were sold and how long they have been on the road. They show how the 2006 compares with the other model years in NHTSA's file.
With 430 complaints, the 2006 ranks 3rd of the 20 Nissan Titan model years from 2004 to 2024 with 10 or more complaints, counting from the most. The most: the 2004 (1,046). The fewest: the 2014 (10).
Recent model years have had less time to collect complaints, so their counts are still growing. No year is ranked by mileage here, because a year's median mileage mostly follows its age.

What these figures can and cannot tell you
- Complaints are owners’ reports to NHTSA. NHTSA publishes them without verifying them: a complaint is an allegation, not a defect finding.
- The mileage is what the owner wrote on the complaint; NHTSA does not check it against the odometer.
- The make, model and model year are the ones on the complaint. NHTSA records them as filed, so a few complaints sit under a model year the name was not sold in.
- They are not a lifespan study. The file holds only vehicles whose owners reported a problem, so these figures do not say how long a typical 2006 Titan lasts.
- A complaint count rises with how many vehicles were sold and how long they have been on the road, so it is not a rating of the 2006 Titan.
- Nothing here describes one vehicle: its title brands, odometer readings, accidents and open recalls are in the records for its own VIN.
- 54 of the 430 complaints on the 2006 Nissan Titan give no usable mileage (blank, zero, a filler such as 999999, or over 500,000) and are left out of every mileage figure.
- NHTSA name counted: TITAN. NHTSA files some vehicles under several names (a series name and a trim name, for example); this page counts only this one.
- Recall-file name matched: TITAN.
