Air bag light stays on and seatbelt light comes on even when nothing is in seat.

Headlights on Nissan Altima started to dim, even when replacing bulbs. There was a settlement to get the bulbs replaced: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

In my altima I've noticed over the few years of ownership occasionally the passenger airbag light wouldn't go off for a few minutes sometimes like it wasn't recognizing a passenger was occupying the vehicle. Then it started occasionally not recognizing the occupant, now it will not recognize an occupant and the airbag light is permanently stuck on the dash. This puts any occupant in the car at risk, when I hookup my own abs/airbag scan tool it shows no faults. It would appear to me the occupant sensor in the seat isn't functional because this is a common fault with this vehicles and it typically exhibits these symptoms. This is such a problem and replacing it is so difficult people have come up with seat sensor emulators which bypass the sensor making the system think there's always an occupant so the airbag goes off, a quick google search will show what I'm talking about. I called my local dealer sutherland nissan and they refused to help me, they said they were going to charge me a diagnostic fee and if it's anything other than the sensor I'd pay thousands, they're known for lying at that dealer so I know they'll tell me it's something else even if it isn't. So essentially I cannot have a passenger safely in my vehicle because nissan is going to make it a financial hardship for me. This is a known safety defect in this vehicle, I shouldn't be paying for anything. It shouldn't be this difficult to have a known safety defect fixed, I shouldn't have to be playing mind games with Dealership employees who are trying to steal my money and I shouldn't have to make complaints about this.

We took our Nissan for repair of recalled Headlights and was told they had no more headlight assemblies, they have to reorder. I got on waiting list. I called a couple of times to check on headlight shipment. Theni finally went back and they told me they stopped repairing headlight assemblies. I kept getting the run around! NOW MY HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM I CAN NOT SEE ROAD AND I WORK NIGHTS. I HAVE TO GET TO MY JOB WHICH IS AN HOUR AWAY, 3 HOURS EARLY WHILE I CAN SEE ROAD. PLEASE HELP ME GET HEADLIGTS REPLACED ASAP. WEBSITE IS SAYING I HAVE "0" UNREPAIRED RECALLS THAT IS NOT CORRECT. I NEVER RECEIVED RECALL ON ELECTRICAL PROBLEM SO THAT IS UNREPAIRED AS WELL. THERE MAY BE OTHERS. PLEASE HELP!!! I HAVE NO HEADLIGHTS WORKING!!!! I HAVE HAD NEAR CRASHES BEFORE THEY TOTALLY WENT OUT. I NEED THIS REPAIRED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THANK YOU!

I was reversing out of a spot and I heard a loud bang. When I looked my rear control on my passenger side had broken due to rust and corrosion. I reached out to Nissan because I saw there was a voluntary recall and I had never received any information. When I contacted them they told me I was outside of the timeline but the website doesn’t explain that. They never notified me about the safety issue and there was never a formal recall but there should’ve been.

Sept 1 2025 hood latch failed causing hood to fly open to full vertical position causing body damage to both fenders and completely taking away visibility of roadway. Latch was replaced by Nissan dealer in 2022 for recall. Nissan dealer verified failed component and replaced at no charge but NISSAN USA would not repair body damage.

I am writing to formally escalate a serious safety issue with my 2014 Nissan Altima. My vehicle is affected by the known halogen headlamp delamination defect, which Nissan has previously acknowledged in a warranty extension and service campaign. Recently, because of the dangerously dim headlights, I struck a speed bump and damaged my vehicle. More importantly, I nearly hit pedestrians crossing the street because I could not see them in time. This is a life-threatening safety hazard directly caused by the defective headlamps. When I contacted my local Nissan dealer, they refused to honor the warranty/service campaign. I was told I would need to pay approximately $2,300 for repairs because the warranty extension expired in 2020. However, I did not begin noticing headlight visibility issues until 2022, well after the coverage period had ended. This demonstrates that the defect often develops after the expiration period and should still be addressed as a known, documented safety defect.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag and check engine warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was determined that the air bag might deploy at any time, and that the clock spring, the steering wheel, and possibly the driver’s seat needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 170,000.

My transmission blew out of nowhere on my 2014 Nissan Altima. It’s 6,200 to fix… I had to get it towed.

Supplemental Airbag Warning Light solid red, does not go off. Occurred after oil change done at dealership 1/13/2025. Dealer found code B0020, recommended part 87650-3TD6G, seat back replacement, parts and labor for repairs $2,950.

1. Component/System Failed: Halogen headlamp assemblies (low beams) malfunctioned due to delamination of the reflective surface, causing dimming. Available for inspection upon request. I have had the issue for years. Hard to see at night. 2. Safety Risk: Dim low beams reduce nighttime visibility, increasing risk of collisions. Using high beams to compensate may blind other drivers, creating further hazards. 3. Problem Reproduced/Confirmed: Not yet confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. Issue matches known defect in 2013-2018 Altima halogen headlamps (TSB NTB15-111). 4. Inspections: No inspections by police, or insurance yet. I did have it inspected with the Santa Rosa California (Jim Bone) Nissan dealer inspection under Voluntary Service Campaign (PC861/PC890). That dealer said it was not bad however the headlights were bad before and after that so I believe they lied or didn’t test it correctly. That was in 2022 I believe. 5. Warning Signs/Symptoms: Gradual low-beam dimming noticed, first observed around 2017 perhaps. I just thought it was bad but it got worse. I saw in 2020 or 2021 some notice about a class action lawsuit (Suarez?) that Nissan lost so I tried to get them to fix it but they had various dates they said claims had to be done and it was confusing. I called Vallejo Nissan and they said I had to wait. Later it kept getting worse. No warning lamps; low beams too dim for safe driving, requiring high beams. 6. Description (if uncertain): Low beams are dim, compromising safe nighttime driving. Issue aligns with reported delamination defect in halogen headlamp assemblies. Exact onset date/mileage UNKNOWN. Sought dealers inspection for replacement under Nissan’s campaign but they didn’t take care of it. Nissan should be held responsible if any deaths, injuries or damages result from this issue. They should fix this asap! This is a major common issue you should already have on file.

My son purchased a used 2014 Nissan Altima 4 months ago from a dealership. He noticed it shuttering, delayed acceleration and not having power as well as a noise from the transmission. It had no check engine light but the code P17F1 CVT Judder came up. We looked for recalls and there have been so many on 2014 Nissan Altima's. His VIN number didn't come up for a recall. He paid $6000 for the car and only had it for 4 months, now he is out of a car. The dealership basically said its out of our hands. We can't afford to take it to a transmission shop and have them work hours on it. It is very unsafe to drive and I am concerned what he is going to do. Is there a chance that NIssan would help in this case? It is unfair that he has the issue that so many were recalled but for some reason not his. If you have advise please help. Thanks

While driving, the Altima’s rear control arm and suspension links broke due to corrosion resulting in loss of safe control of the vehicle. Nissan is aware that this is a problem with this year and make vehicle. They issued an extension of the warranty for this issue. This should be a mandatory recall for safety concerns, not simply a warranty extension. This is a very dangerous issue that can lead to serious injury! Very upset that money is valued over human life. When these parts fail, the vehicle is not safe.

Airbag readiness lamp does not turn off, steady illumination

Rear passenger wheel has been rattling for a year. While driving (right now), car began to fishtail going approx 35mph. Was able to pull off and avoid accident. Upon examination, described wheel is no longer facing forward and is facing inward. Likely that the rear controller snapped. There is a service campaign for this exact issue. Nissan is no longer covering the cost of this repair which is insane given that I was never notified of this issue.

I just bought auction, Door was crash, I had it fix Wheel sight now are good. My name is [XXX] [XXX] . INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while reversing at approximately 4 MPH, there was an abnormal sound coming from the rear driver's side wheel well of the vehicle. The contact stated upon shifting to drive(D), the contact noticed that the vehicle was wobbling from left to right in the lane. The traction control warning was illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle shuddered violently and nearly became uncontrollable. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that both the rear driver's side and passenger's side lower control arms had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to Nissan Campaign Number: P9324. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was no longer under warranty coverage. The failure mileage was approximately 190,000.

My headlights are so dim, that I’m forced to drive with my high beams at night or not drive at all. I’ve replace the bulbs and there has been no improvement.

The headlights are extremely dim due to Nissan's design flaw. There was a settlement in 2022 to have these replaced for free. However, the Nissan dealership conveniently passed my headlights (as well as many others, as stated in online forums), and we were unable to qualify for the replacements despite the lights being so dim that I had to switch to my high-beam lights in many situations. Now, after the settlement has expired, Nissan has failed my headlights and is asking for $1360 to replace the assembly. I find this action from Nissan to be in bad faith.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving 5 MPH, the vehicle hit a curb, and the driver's side rear tire tilted inward. The contact continued to drive the vehicle to the residence. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the control arm had fractured, and the sway bar was rusted. The dealer confirmed that the vehicle warranty had expired. No further information was available. The manufacturer was contacted, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at night, the headlights were significantly dim. The contact stated that the VIN was previously included in Nissan Campaign Number: PC807. The dealer was contacted and informed the contact that an appointment could not be scheduled due to the pandemic. The contact stated that upon contacting the dealer later, the dealer informed the contact that the warranty extension had expired. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated that the failure had worsened. The contact stated that he had installed an additional light bar on the vehicle; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving 45 MPH, the air bag warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 101,000.

Was driving one day hit a pothole and my control arm dispositioned itself. Apparently my car had an extended warranty that expired last year. However, with the information that I’m able to provide, I’m not sure if Nissan will be able to work with me to get that fixed, but I do recognize that it is a common problem. I have looked under the car, and I did see the corroded piece from the control arm linked to the staring system. I know not too many people still even have a 2014. However, I do feel it is unfair for a part that led to safety issues for several people to be considered a warranty.

Hi. 2014 Nissan Altima S Problem is whith Low Beam light. At dark time this are no lighting enough putting in risk driving at night time.

Went and started my car and the air bag warning light on the dash came on. I am worried that the air bag won't deploy properly also when the lights are on dim they don't shine very good and the lens are cracked

Low beam headlights produce very little light. They do not illuminate the road, a safety hazard. Driving full time high beams is the only way to drive this car at night, a safety hazzard.

I was driving on a 2 lane highway when my car starting bucking and completely went dead. I walked to a station where i got help. after that it happened again and I had to be towed. After having car looked at by 2 mechanics I found out it was the transmission. The mechanic said he was surprised as I didn't even have 70,000 miles on car. It cost me over $5,000 for the transmission and then I came to find out about all the Nissan recalls. I wrote a letter to them and attached articles and my proof of receipt from transmission place, and explained that I am a senior on a fixed income and just wanted the money to cover expenses of what the transmission costs due to their faulty transmissions. They said they could not help me. Also, my sons car came to have the same transmission problem but he got rid of it.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel became firm and difficult to turn in either direction. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that both front suspension control arms needed to be replaced. The vehicle was taken to a local independent mechanic for a second opinion where it was diagnosed with the same failure. The vehicle was repaired by an independent mechanic. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 78,333.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving approximately 65 MPH, there was an abnormal sound coming from the engine compartment. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a Service Station where the contact used a self-diagnostic tool to determine that the Transmission Control Module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

We own a 2014 Nissan Altima. We are the second owners. About a month ago, my son was driving and the left rear lower control arm (Link) broke in half. After repairing and researching, there was an extended warranty offered by Nissan for 10 years from the manufacturer date. We are 13 months over that. When calling, I spoke to Chelsea and Trainsha (Who is the Northeast Regional supervisor) and both told me we are out of warranty and can do nothing. We were never contacted by Nissan to advise of this warranty. This was a known problem by Nissan back in 2018 they knew this was an issue on 2013-2018 Altimas in snow belt states. We are one of those states. I questioned why we were never contacted and why it wasn’t a recall. They said they do not decide on recalls and there are not many incidents. There is nothing they can do. So they are not only allowing all these vehicles to continue to drive on the road with risk of breaking and causing accident and possible injury, but they are also ok with not letting people know there was a problem to begin with. Why after 10 years can they say “Too bad for you” and risk peoples lives? This is a metal control arm. They acknowledge they made it incorrectly. Metal suspension components should last well beyond 10 years. Only the bushings and ball joints should need to be replaced. Why is a corporation allowed to get away with this. I am asking that someone look into this. They are saying they do not have a lot of incidents. Well, if they never let anyone know there was a problem, how would they know how many incidents they really had. We need to hold auto manufacturers accountable for their vehicles. Not just when they are brand new but for longer on metal components that are not wearable parts.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH, the vehicle shuddered uncontrollably and stalled. The contact was able to pull to the shoulder of the road. The contact turned off the vehicle. The contact stated that upon restarting the vehicle 20 minutes later, the failure recurred while driving, and the vehicle failed to accelerate upon depressing the accelerator pedal. The contact exited the highway; however, the vehicle stalled in the middle of the road. The vehicle was towed to Young's Cheltenham Auto Service, where it was diagnosed with transmission failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the manufacturer for assistance in covering the repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle could not be covered because Nissan TSB Number: NTB17-039K had expired. The failure mileage was approximately 98,000.

REAR, DRIVERSIDE CONTROL ARM BROKE CAUSING UNCONTROLABLE DRIVING.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while the vehicle was parked, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the wiring in the front driver's side seat was damaged, and the rear of the driver's side seat needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 165,000.

When an adult is riding in the front passenger seat the airbag on the passenger turns off and on randomly while riding. If in an accident I am worried that the airbag will not go off properly. I have not contacted a dealer about this issue yet. I have not seen any other warning lights other than the passenger airbag is off.

The left rear arm snapped completely and is now dangling along with the spring link and other parts connected to it. The car is not drivable and I have to have a on-site mechanic come out to fix it. I had been driving the car on the highway the day it happened and luckily made it back to my house, then about 20 minutes later I had to go back out but when I put the car into reverse and started backing down the driveway a loud snap followed by scraping metal occurred. Now the car is stationary on the curb. The right rear arm's condition is also bad, showing signs of snapping in the near future as well. My mechanic along with research I've conducted has informed me that this is an extremely common problem with nissan sedans that happen frequently. I had insurance on this exact part of the car but it unfortunately expired May of this year. I filed a claim with Nissan directly and they proved to serve no help. If the rear arm had snapped just a little bit earlier in the day when I was on the highway it would have most likely resulted in major accident that would have left me injured.

when driving on a highway the rear upper suspension control arm broke, left side causing the tire to wobble. The car was undrivable. A tow truck was called. The repair shop had to replace both the right and left control arms. They told me that this is a common problem with nissan altima 2014. Why has not nissan had a recall on this issue?

Drivers side seat heater switch caught fire and burned winter jacket sleeve. Fire was extinguished before car was lost.

While driving on a highway at approximately 40 mph. My car lurched and felt like I lost control of the steering. I slowed down and it felt like the car was straight but the steering wheel was turned. I thought maybe I had a flat tire. I drove again slower and the same thing happened. I heard a sound that sounded like a flat tire- a constant thumping noise. I had the car towed to a repair shop and the repairman said I had rusted lower control arms that should be covered by an extended warranty that I was never notified of an issue from Nissan. When contacting Nissan they said the extended warranty ran out and I would have to wait approximately one month without a car for them to do an inspection. Had this incident happened 2 months ago I beleive the repair would have covered. I'm so upset that something might have happened more tragically. I wanted to make the NHTSA aware of the problem. Do I have any recourse? The said it would take a month to have an inspection done by Nissan. How does one go without a car for a month?

While driving, my transmission stopped accelerating, and started making a scraping/ticking noise. The car almost cut out in traffic, nearly causing a rear end collision!

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the air bag warning light had been illuminated on the instrument panel after the vehicle was serviced for an air bag recall(recall unknown). Years later, the check engine warning light also appeared on the instrument panel, and the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic. The mechanic diagnosed the check engine light failure; however, the mechanic also informed the contact that the air bag warning light needed to be checked and referred the contact back to the dealer. The contact called the dealer that performed the recall and informed them about the failure that occurred years prior. The contact was informed that due to the long stretch of time that had passed since the repair, the contact would have to pay for a diagnostic to be performed on the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and spoke to a manager who later agreed to wave the diagnostic fee. The contact was then informed that the back seat assembly and side air bag sensor had failed; the contact was given an estimate for the repair. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.

My headlights have not been working for about 2 years. It’s $1200 to get them fixed and I heard there had been a rebate if you pay for it Nissan will reimburse you but there’s no way I can pay $1200 for headlights. My family elderly and I have spent a lot of nights heading to an hospital with dim lights. I was working where I got off at 10pm but had to quit. I’ve been pulled over for three times for my headlights. Although I really think it’s the part behind the headlight they said was bad. You can’t drive safely at night. Nissan please fix!!!

Rear lower control replaced on recall repair. Dealer diagnosed front control arm needed repair but refuse to complete repair. I paid out of pocket for front. When both front and rear control arm should have been replace under recall

Was making right hand turn and heard clunk as if hitting pothole. There was no pothole. After examining vehicle I noticed left rear wheel was out of alignment. Control arm had rusted through and broken off. I’m fortunate that I was not driving at highway speed. This is really a serious problem considering how many of these vehicles are still on the road.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for routine maintenance. While the vehicle was on the lift, the contact became aware that the driver's side lower control arm was cracked. Additionally, both sides were heavily rusted. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact called the local dealer, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 55,200.

Control arm snapped on the highway. Caused me to swerve into another lane. After researching this is a known issue with this make and model. Nissan had an extended warranty for the issue that ran out last year. Nissan claims its not a safety issue yet my mechanic confirmed it is extremely dangerous and I almost caused an accident.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving approximately 20 MPH, the rear end of the vehicle suddenly became unstable. While inspecting the vehicle it was discovered that the rear driver's side wheel was slanted inward. The vehicle was slowly driven to the local dealer who diagnosed the vehicle and determined that the rear driver's side lower suspension linkage had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 180,000.

Components that failed: -2019 & 2023 Entire headlight assembly 2x - with continuous wiring in headlight that must be adjusted before every drive. -2021 Internal lighting to illuminate the gear shift, which no longer works. -2021 Heater constantly squeals like a pig and blows every fuse, once the several fuse boxes were located. -2017 Engine revs up to 3k-4k rpm's while driving a steady 40 mph. Car went to shop after purchase for this, which is now starting again 6 yrs later. -2022 Window tint is impossible to see through and crispy to the touch. -2017 Engine sputters and car shakes signaling that the 3k miles are almost up and it's time for an oil change. -Years ago- There was a recall for passenger airbags, which hasn't been fixed, but also isn't showing up here. -Mechanics, State Inspections etc have been done as normal.

There was an airbag recall around 2016 for airbags. I took it to the dealer and they checked it out and said there was no problem. Now my air bag light stays on and the dealer says I need a new air bag in the driver's seat. Is this airbag covered under the recall?

Rear lower control arm snapped this model isn't under recall it really should be

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while his daughter was driving at approximately 40 MPH, the vehicle swerved into the next lane. The vehicle was steered into a parking lot where several unknown warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was then shifted into reverse(R) and the contact heard a loud bang coming from under the rear of the vehicle. The contact stated that the rear control arms were fractured and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was then towed to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the rear control arms were fractured and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 85,000.

Dealership never contacted me after recall stated they didn't have part available.

My Nissan Altima would not accelerate properly. I was told that to drive the car could put me at risk as the car might totally stop. The dealer diagnosed that the CVT transmission failed. It cost over $5,000 to replace the transmission. 1. Is there any recourse as a consumer? 2. I understand that Nissan has been involved in several class action lawsuits, but I don't know what happened. Is there agency that can help me with information?

The rear lower suspension link on our car cracked and completely separated causing the car to be un-drivable. My husband was pulling out of a parking lot with our son and my son’s friend [XXX] and [XXX] old) and the car started fishtailing. We were lucky this happened at a very low rate of speed. The next day my husband would have been on a highway and I’m sure we would be talking about injuries or worse instead of just a tow. Nissan knew about this issue but failed to tell their customers directly of the issue. They extended the warranty to 10 years and unlimited miles but DID NOT inform owners of the defect, warranty extension OR the ability to get it fixed (and Nissan admitted to this that they didn’t have to tell customers). They told us that in midwestern states (we are in Illinois) the rear lower link could rust quicker with the salt and break. There were no warning signs of the issue that we noticed and no one mentioned any issues when we’ve had it in the shop. Nissan however only agreed to pay half of the cost to fix it since we are 4 months past the date of the extended warranty. This is a problem that should have been communicated to us in the first place so we could have had it fixed before it completely separated. The regional specialist who made this decision was completely uncaring when expressing concerns of how this could have had a much worse outcome. We asked for towing to be re-imbursed and for a rental car and both were denied. Rental car we were told was at the dealerships discretion to which they said they would need to get approval from the person who told us the dealership decided that. So we have been without our car for 2 weeks now having to juggle around 2 kids and their activities and our own jobs. We are very lucky that this issue known to Nissan didn’t end in a far worse outcome with injuries to my family. Unfortunately we don’t have the invoice for the repair cost yet as it’s still in the shop. They said it would be around $500.

The projector housing in my headlights has been determined to be defective and Nissan was sued because of this. However I have dim headlights on my vehicle which will cost me $1200 to replace and Nissan has told me that I am no longer eligible for a one time replacement. This is unfair in that I was never notified by Nissan about defective headlights which have deteriorated to a point where they are so dim it is unsafe to drive at night.

-The component that malfunctioned is the airbag light for my vehicle, and yes it is available for inspection upon request. -My safety and others are at risk because my airbag may not deploy if I get into an accident. -The manufacturer (at a local Nissan dealership) diagnosed the problem after an inspection, which confirmed it was an airbag light for the driver's seat airbag. There is currently a warning lamp that's turned on. After the dealership's inspection, they turned off the warning lamp, but it turned back on within a month. There were no other symptoms that could have prompted and provoked this warning lamp to be triggered.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 MPH, the hood unlatched, rose, and cracked the windshield. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure; however, the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 139,000.

The hood of my car flew up while I was driving and hit my windshield

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while in reverse, the rear driver’s side tire felt abnormal as if the tire was going to detach. The contact lifted the vehicle and noticed that there was a crack in the rear suspension control arm. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

Recently after lending my 2014 Nissan Altima to my daughter to drive out of state she made a turn in a parking lot and the rear lower control arm broke in half. The car was undrivable and had to be towed to a local repair shop. After doing some checking online I found out that Nissan is well aware of the issue and has issued a service bulletin P9324. However, I am very upset as Nissan never mailed out any notices to owners to bring the cars into a nissan dealership and have them inspected, owners were never made aware of the potential problem. Not only that, I live in a state which uses road salt, which their service bulletin says compounds the issue and I was still never notified. Nissan is well aware of the cracking lower control arm issue and had a redesign done in I believe 2018 to eliminate the issue. Additionally, I had the car in at a Nissan dealership 2 weeks before the failure occurred for a different recall issue and I feel there is no excuse for this to at least not have been checked when the car was in at a dealership for service, especially in a road salt use state. Looking back the car was making a clicking noise from the right rear where the control arm broke for the last year and a half only rarely when going over one particular speed bump where I live. Had I been notified by Nissan about the potential issue I immediately would have bought it into a dealer for inspection. Additionally Nissan did extend the warranty on this part but the failure was six months outside of their extended warranty and they will not cover repair expenses either. I strongly feel this breakage could have caused a loss of life if it happened at highway speeds as my daughter informed me the car was completely undrivable when it broke in the parking lot and had to be towed. I am in possession of the failed lower control arm. Once again shame on Nissan for failing to notify owners of this potential hazardous problem.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V315000 (Latches/Locks/Linkages) however, the recall repair was not completed. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, the hood opened by wind flow. The contact stated that the hood latches and the frame under the windshield had been crimped and bent by the hood. The contact stated that the dealer had not diagnosed the vehicle and the vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 193,000. Parts distribution disconnect.

We have a 2014 Nissan Altima. Last few months it has not been driving right. We have had mechanics look at it with no answer. When the problems got worse, suggestions were made that a new transmission was needed. No one was wanting to work on it at that point. The car finally broke down while at a stoplight and we had to have it towed home. When we went to the bank, we were told that in that timeframe of when 2014 Altima’s were manufactured, a new type of transmission was installed. Then was told after a few years the transmission went bad. I would like to know if there is any truth to this, and if our Altima was a statistic of that.

My 2014 Nissan transmission failed at 95,000 miles in less than 10 years. I had to get it replaced. It failed at the middle of an intersection. Multiple people have had the same problem with this model Nissan.

Headlights don't work properly. I can barely see beyond 2 cars lengths ahead of me unless using full beam. I realize that there was a voluntary recall issued in 2020, however, I am not sure that I was notified. The dealership examined car and noted the reflectors are delaminating, the pattern of which matches that of the recall. Since this is a design flaw I consider Nissan responsible and feel they should replace the headlights at no cost to me. I don't understand why the recall was voluntary and why it had a time limit. Functioning headlights are a necessity.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while reversing out of the driveway, the tire went inward, the control arm fractured, and the vehicle became undrivable. The contact looked underneath the vehicle and became aware that the driver's side rear lower control arm was rusted and had split into two pieces. There were no warning lights illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, and informed the contact there was no warranty coverage on the vehicle and referred the contact to the local dealer for assistance. The contact stated that the failure was related to NHTSA Action Number: EA19002 (Suspension). The failure mileage was approximately 124,538.

Low beam lights are very low and causes poor visibility at night and in hazardous conditions such as rain, etc. I can hardly see while driving at night because of the poor and low visibility.

I was driving on the freeway and my hood popped up and smashed my roof and everything inside the ceiling onto my lap. The lighting and visor broken. Roof and hood damaged. I luckily survived this. I am leading this car. I took it to Nissan when this happened. They said they’d fix it but it’s been months and now no answer.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the headlights of the vehicle were continuously dim. The contact stated that the headlight bulbs and the headlamps were replaced; however, the failure persisted. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was determined that both headlights needed to be repaired. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA ID Number: 10242160. The manufacturer was contacted and informed the contact that she would be charged a fee for the repairs. The failure mileage was 75,000.

The hood latch recall was done June 2022, but it became malfunction 1 year after recall was done. When driving, the hood flies up and almost hit the windshield. Luckily I didn't drive on the highway. Called the dealer and said it was out of the warranty which is 1 year or 10000 miles after the recall. Why this important parts have so short warranty. The hood can't be open when I closed it after the incident . And the dealer said it will cost $500 to open and fix them.

Left rear control arm broken and unable to move!

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 MPH, at night the low-beam headlights were extremely dim. The contact used the high-beam headlights to properly see the roadway. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer, where it was recommended to replace the headlights with newer LED lights. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

I was driving on the freeway and my hood popped and shattered my windshield. Why would you guys even allow a car on the roads with a defect as such? This is extremely dangerous! Now I am pretty much w/o transportation. I'm even more upset that I had to find out about the defect the hard way, to see that this is a known issue. What's next? looks like a few people have complained about this issue, even after you guys supposedly fixed it. So, apparently your little fix didn't work. So, offering a new hood and window is NOT an option, I DO NOT FEEL SAFE ESPECIALLY WITH LITTLE PIECES OF GLASS IN MY SKIN AND IN MYT BOYFRIENDS SKIN!! There was also damaged on the inside of the car that HIT ME IN MY HEAD AND FACE!!!!!!!!!!!

The headlights of my vehicle are so dim I cannot drive the vehicle at night. This is a safety issue, why has there never been a recall on this problem?

On the October 28, 2023, at 2pm, I, was in the process of performing a backing maneuver into my driveway. As I was reversing, I suddenly felt a strong vibration and experienced an inability to move the vehicle further. I promptly exited the vehicle to inspect the situation. Upon examination, I observed that the issue was attributed to a complete failure of the Passenger Side (PS-R) lower control arm. This failure was caused by extensive rust, which had resulted in the control arm being completely broken. The severity of this structural failure rendered the vehicle inoperable and unsafe to drive.

It smells like gas when I start the car. It's also wasting alot of gas. I have to put gas every couple of days. I spend more money putting gas. The steering and suspension and the tires keep giving me problems to where the brakes locked up on their own and now it drives really bad especially on the freeway. The steering wheel moves alot when I'm on the freeway sometimes feel like I'm loosing control of the car. The gas pedal gets stuck and the gear shift gets stuck in park. I have to use a nail filer the metal ones and push and hold the shift lock for it to move into gear. The car keeps saying Key not Detected even tho it's in the car with me. I just got the car from a small dealership in pomona in April of 2023

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS EXTREMELY DIM

Metal shavings detected in transmission oil (under code P17F1) - car only has 90,000 miles. Dealership quoted $5,760 to fix. This is a common problem with the make/model and should have been recalled. Current extended warranty only covers 5 years, previous models' (Nissan altima 2007-2010) extended warranty for this same issue covered 10 years.

transmission failed twice. first time i would have to floor the gas for the car to accelerate. i took to dealer, warranty was still active and transmission was replaced. again, about 13 or 14 mo later the transmission failed again. i had it replaced again. i have receipts for all work. the car has been driving fair the last 12 months.

I have purchased low pressure AC hose part from the local Nissan Altima dealer as there is a mechanical design issue where the low pressure AC hose is rubbing with the other part and causing a damage to the hose thus leaking refrigerant gas and spilling on the floor. I have replaced this part twice. The first time I replaced this part did not understand the real issue, the second time I have taken a closer look and found out that the low pressure ac hose is rubbing with the other part of the engine which is next to it, I went back to the dealer and informed the situation and requested to cover the warranty. He did not even bothered to look into my issue and ignored me. I had to replace the part twice due to a poor design issue and this is also a safety hazard. I have then contacted Nissan Manufacturer customer service and explained the issue, they also ignored my complaint without a resolution. I request your intervention and resolve this issue.

Broken drivers side rear control arm due to corrosion.

The air bag system light comes on, the code is B0020 - Side A/B module LH, and I am able to reset the system with a code scanner. The light goes out and operates normally for a few days or weeks, then without warning the A/B illuminates again for no apparent reason. I understand this is not a component problem but a wiring issue. I have read that the path the wire harness takes from the connector under the driver's seat to the side air bag device has two tight pinch point bends causing the wiring to intermittently break the connection causing the A/B light to come on and shut off the system. The fix, I understand, is to replace the driver's seat back at a cost of $1,600. Why isn't there a recall on this? From what I see on the web this seems to be a common problem to this vehicle. This is not a wear and tear issue or abuse, the vehicle owner has not done anything to cause the wiring problem. The problem was built into the vehicle when it was manufactured by the routing of the wiring. I understand the problem will continue until the wiring fully breaks inside the wiring insulation covering and it can no longer be reset. Since this is a safety issue causing the A/B system not to operate properly why hasn't there been a push to get the manufacturer to own up to the error and repair the vehicle at no cost or offer a substantial discount. I am not sure how many vehicles have been affected and many owners may have a difficult time justifying this expense to a 9 year old vehicle for an issue they had no control. Can NHTSA offer advice or assistance with pushing for owner cost relief from the manufacturer?

The lighting system on 2014 Nissan Altima completely failed to the point where we couldn't drive the vehicle at night. We were unable to see the road. While searching Internet for potential issues, we found out that Nissan settled a lawsuit regarding the issues related to failing headlight/delamination issue (Suarrez vs. Nissan, 1-855-786-0996). We were never notified of the issue or the opportunity to fix the problem. Please see your file MC-[XXX}. We were hoping to have this corrected, but Nissan refuses to cover the cost of repair, which was estimated at $1,575.58 by our local Nissan dealer. They claim that the deadlines no longer apply to our case. Any help is greatly appreciated since we are sure many other drivers are in similar situation, based on online forums and defect reporting.

I was driving for approximately one hour on Interstate 95N. In heavy traffic, but still at speed limit. Then exited onto Rt. 40 N. For about 10 minutes. When I turned onto the back road to my destination, my car instantly started swerving all over the road. I had to immediately pull off into the grass to get off the road. I had to be towed. The driver side rear control arm broke completely in half. It is severely rusted. I had to replace both sides, because the other side is rusted also. I was lucky it didn't happen moments earlier while driving at a high speed on the highway. I would most likely have lost control of my vehicle. And in heavy traffic, it's very likely that other cars would have been in danger due to the failure of my car. I saw that there was a recall on the 2013 Nissans, and I believe that 2014 owners also should have been made aware of the rust issues. I have only had my car for about 2 years bought from Carvana. I had a hood latch recall, but I honestly feel my life and others could have been horrifically affected by this, the use of inferior materials or lack of protective coating or whatever the cause. I have never seen a car under ten years old corroded like this.

My son was involved in an accident this weekend. A car pulled out in front of him and he hit them going between 45 and 55 MPH. None of his airbags deployed in his 2014 nissan altima. He had his seat belt on, but instead of the airbag keeping him from hitting the steering wheel like it should we ended up in the ER with chest pain. Thankfully he is ok along with his passenger, but I feel the airbags should have deployed. I'm not sure who I need to speak to about this. As is can see all of the black car's airbags deployed.

The headlights are so dim that I have to use bright lights to see.

Head Lamps (Lights) stop working properly. New ballast and lights where installed after detected the Malfunction and still no lighting. I no longer can see when I'm driving at night. Yes vehicle have been inspected by police and dealer.

1. Airbag warning light is on. 2. Unable to roll down front passenger window from driver’s side master window control switch.

Vehicle brought to independent mechanic to investigate popping/creaking sounds from driver's side rear (DS-R) wheel area. While test driving to investigate, the mechanic indicated that the DS-R lower control arm experienced complete failure (rusted through/snapped).

When driving at night or low light areas headlights are very dim. The road in front of vehicle is very dark I have use high beams to see.

While driving the Nissan Altima listed about my daughter began to experience severe vibration to the steering. It was so bad she had difficulty keeping the car on the road and was able to pull into a parking lot. After being reviewed by a repair center it was determined that the lower control arm on the drivers side was broken and caused the upper control arm to be damaged. It was further found that the passenger side rear lower control arm had a crack approx. 75% through. The repairs cost me over $2,200.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the vehicle decelerated unintendedly and failed to exceed 40 MPH while depressing the accelerator pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact veered to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was then towed across three States to an independent mechanic, where the transmission was replaced. The vehicle was repaired. An unknown dealer and the manufacturer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000.

I have hard control the vehicle when turning is seem the vehicle want to pull ether to right or left when a making a turn Work was done on the vehicle the steering Power Steering Rack and Pinion Was change is the same problem again The lower control harm was change

I was driving to work. 2 minutes after I exited the expressway, my car made a popping sound and I was unable to control or steer my car properly. I later found out that the control arm on my car was broken. If it broke 2 minutes earlier, I would've crashed my car on the expressway and I could have lost my life and/or endangered the life of others. Nissan apparently had an extended warranty on the control arm. There should've been a safety recall instead!

I just bought a 2014 Nissan Altima as is from a Nissan Dealer. As the car warms up I'm getting carbon monoxide fumes coming into the car. Car was purchased at Nissan dealership as is! I took it to an auto shop and according to the computer it doesn't show any dash light warnings and cannot find the source of the problem. The car cost me $23,000.00!

My Altima is 9 years old now and I know things go bad overtime but my headlights are so dim I can’t see 2 feet in front of me at night snd it’s very very dangerous. I know Nissan had s class action and I was signed up and even had an appointment to fix but sadly my husband got shit while driving home from work in Chicago, he survived thankfully but the next several months revolves around him and doctor appointments, surgeries,etc… and I missed my slot. I think it’s very unfair because these we’re getting dimmer and dimmer since 2016-2017 with the past 3 years so fin you can’t see at all. I’m so afraid I’m going to be able to see and hurt someone badly, and that would kill me in itself!! I personally am not financially able to replace these yet bc it’s pubs 1500-3000 to fix if need be. Thank you [XXX] [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Rear lower control arm broke from mount. Broke just before reaching a secondary rd with a speed limit of 55

I tried to have my headlights replaced in 2020 but they told me to wait there was a lawsuit going about this. After it was resolved I had to go online and fill out some info to get on the list. Then I was told they had to order headlights for me. I had to call Nissan corporate office to get on the list. But still my headlight are not fix because they do not have headlights for me.

Air bag warning light came on, took car to Nissan dealer who checked into this issue. We are told airbag is fine, however, the device that would inflate it is defective and that it would cost me $1300 to replace the defective part. This car has never been in a wreck and I feel that the manufacture should replace a defective part of an item that has never been deployed. Or at the very least meet this original owner somewhere in between.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle made an abnormal sound while going over a bump. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the driver's and passenger’s side front lower control arm needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

On our 2014 Nissan Altima, the left rear lower control arm broke apart and the right rear lower control arm was badly cracked; both are integral parts of the suspension.  This happened on a 350 mile trip to visit my father, driving at top speeds of 70 mph, 80 miles of which were on a two-lane highway.  I was fortunate to be driving only 15 mph and just a few blocks from my destination when the rear end "fish-tailed" with no ice or rain on the road (it didn't totally break through until I was in my dad's driveway and backed up to put the car into his garage on a flat surface in order to jack it up to see what the problem was).  I had heard no unusual noises, nor did any warning lights appear.  The car was towed using a dolly system, since it was no longer drivable, to an auto mechanic shop.  If I had been driving any faster and this part gave way I (and my dog who was not restrained in any way) could have veered into oncoming traffic, or gone into one of the many deep ditches where the highway is built up through a large bog, or off a 120 foot high bridge into the Duluth Harbor, which could have resulted in severe injury or death to myself, my dog and others.  The mechanic verified that Nissan has a "service agreement" instead of a full-on recall of these defective parts for cars driven in the "salt-belt" regions of the USA, WI and MN being two of those states.  Because of this issue, I had to stay an additional week in order to have our car completed for driving. As of today, we have sent a reimbursement form and all pertinent information to Nissan.  My husband and I strongly feel that Nissan should have sent out notices to all owners of these vehicles with this potentially deadly defect.  We do not understand why there has not been a full recall!

rear control arm rusted , broke off

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the front driver's and passenger's side doors intermittently failed to open as needed. Additionally, the front driver's and passenger's side seat belt sensors failed to chime when the seat belts were not securely fastened. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while accelerating from a stop light, the vehicle jerked and experienced a delay while accelerating. There was no warning light illuminated.

Information entertainment system is completely inoperable. no backup camera or navigation or audio. Screen is black no power. without cameras there is safety risk to those near vehicle. Dealer quoted nearly $200 to look at it and run a diagnostic. we declined this offer but am willing to have it inspected. There are no messages or warning lamps on now or prior. it is unknown what caused this failure. all fuses are in tact. Thank you.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who was unable to determine the air bag failure, however, while the contact was getting their transmission repaired they noticed the air bag warning light was no longer illuminated. Approximately 2 months after the repair the air bag warning light had illuminated again. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

While driving, the car began to hesitate and studder during acceleration. I had to stop at a red light. Once I began to drive again the car shut off and the engine and battery icon came on. I was able to start the car again and move out of traffic. However, the studdering/hesitance continue. I called AAA to complete a battery and diagnostic test which they found no problems with battery, cables, alternator, etc. I was told to contact the dealer and report it. I contacted Nissan and was told there’s no recalls.

These lights are so dim, even after switching bulbs it’s like I have 2 iPhone flashlights on the front of my car, I can’t see anything at night without using my brights. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve almost crashed due to low visibility from these dim head lights. I think they have delaminated. No specific date of incident, everyday it’s an issue

I was merging on to I-94 from Grand Avenue in Gurnee, IL. I felt the rear end of my car hop. One merged, I noticed my steering was at 2:00, vs straight. After exiting expressway and hitting bumps in the road, I noticed my car "floated". Parked the vehicle and went to work. Left early to avoid traffic. Made it 1/4 mile and the car had a horrible hop to it. Parked the car to investigate. The rear control arm was completely rusted through and broken. I called the Nissan Dealership after reading there is a campaign to replace these under "warranty". Apparently this is an issue with 2013-2018 Altimas in areas where is salt used to help clear roadways in the winter. The dealership has my vehicle now and called to tell me the other one was bad as well. I could have seriously hurt or killed others or myself. This should be a recall and not an extended warranty. I received notification about the hood latch recall, nothing about a campaign regarding the rear control arm.

The reflecting mechanism in the headlamps are causing the headlights to display a dim light. It makes it difficult to be able to see past about 5ft and extremely difficult to see at night, the vehicle has been inspected by a dealership and an auto shop. The problem started a couple months ago but there was no indicator or warning before the problem occurred.

The contact owned a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle stalled. The accelerator pedal was depressed but the vehicle hesitated and was slow to respond while continuing to jerk. The RPMs revved up and was fluctuating. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer and the contact was informed that the warranty coverage was denied due to the transmission fluid not being flushed and replaced. The vehicle was diagnosed, and it was determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired and later sold. The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 116,000.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact reviewed Case No.3:21-cv-00393-WLC-AN (Halogen Headlamps “Class Vehicles”) a settlement; however, the part to do the repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact experienced a failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Sat 12/3/2022 ~2:15PM Hood latch failure resulting in the hood flying open while driving. (See NHTSA Recall 20V-315). *********************************** History: Thu 12/1/2022: Same Nissan service center (Delaney Nissan State College PA) that performed the hood latch recall repair did some additional work/maintenance on the vehicle that would have had them opening the hood. July 2021: Delaney Nissan State College PA performed the hood latch recall (Nissan # R21A6) *********************************** Driving hi-way speeds (55-60 mph) on Sat 12/3, the hood flew open, slamming back to the windshield, including damaging the roof. My wife was in the passenger seat and my adult daughter was in the backseat. No injuries, no damage to anything other than the car I was driving. Note: Neither my wife nor I noticed any hood vibration while driving, which might indicate that the hood was not seated fully/correctly. Car was taken to Delaney Nissan's extension body shop (Delaney Collision Center State College PA). The Collision Center did two things: 1: Inspect the hood latch mechanism for failure 2: Assess / estimate the damage. Wed 12/14, the Collosion center said 1: it "was not a faulty latch". They used a screw driver to verify the primary latch although they did say the secondary latch was in need of maintenance, needing lubrication and showed signs of corrosion. 2: $8,068.48 damage Note: I do have photos, that I will have to dig out and upload if you need them.

Nissan has issued a replacement of headlights but parts are unavailable. Car is unsafe to drive during hours of darkness. I spoke with both the dealer (Coggin Nissan on Atlantic, Jacksonville, FL and Nissan this morning. Parts were ordered in August but as of today there is no indication as to when they will be available. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I cannot use this car safely between dusk and dawn.

Both rear lower control arms broken

My headlights started getting dim about a year ago. I took my car to Firestone and they replaced them. Just a month or so later, I found out that there was a recall in the works. I finally received notification of the recall. I took my car to Nissan of Rockwall and had it tested and was advised that it did meet the qualifications for headlight replacement. This was in June 2022. I was told that the headlights had to be ordered and I was on the list. I have called several times and have been told that I am still on the list and that due to supply chain issues, they still have not received them. My headlights are so dim, that if the street is not well lit, it is very difficult for me to see to safely drive. I don't have the funds to rent another car, but what am I to do if this continues. I will have to drive with my bright lights on. I drive to and from work in the dark every weekday.

I’m reporting that all four locks on the car doors inside simultaneously broke one by one in the same way clearly this is an manufacturer issue and unsafe and doesn’t allow passengers to exit vehicle from the inside.

HEADLAMPS DON'T ILLUMINATE THE ROAD ON LOW SETTING. DEALER FIRST DENIED A PROBLEM APPROXIMATELY 3 YEARS AGO.RECENTLY RETURNED TO DEALER AND THEY SAID WE HAD MISSED THE RECALL DATE,WHICH WE NEVER RECEIVED.

• Fuel and Electrical system failure • Vehicle caught fire on I-10 in Grandbay, Al while driving. • No • There was a police report filed and a claim filed with my insurance company but I only had liability. • All the lights on dash came on prior to the car catching fire. I have suffered total loss!!!

The right rear suspension rusted from the frame of the car ,making the car unable to drive!

The dealer was made aware of the failure; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000.

My right rear control was completely broken when I was driving 70MPH on the expressway and I was nearly in a major accident. The car swerved to right severely. The other rear control arm was cracked.

I have never been in a wreck or have had any reason for my airbags to not work. My driverside airbag light stays on now and my passenger side turns off randomly even when someone is sitting in it, including my 6'2, 180 lb, 16 year old son.

The vehicle jerks and stutters while accelerating. In some cases it can lose power completely, which is extremely dangerous when driving at any speed, but particularly on the highway. I’ve also researched this issue online and it is a well known transmission defect with Nissan CVT transmissions and many people have experienced the same issue. I’d be shocked if nobody has been injured or killed.

The visibility of the headlamps at normal brightness are very dim. I have read about numerous lawsuits regarding this, including a class action, but when I have gone to the dealer with the information postcard that I received in the mail, I am told by Nissan that I am "outside of the window" to have them replaced with newer brighter lamps. Per the website for the class action lawsuit, it should be for 2013-2018 Nissan Altimas ([XXX], et al. v. Nissan North America, Inc., Case No.[XXX]) http://www.altimaheadlightsettlement.com/ I feel that Nissan is avoiding this issue, although there are MANY Nissan Altimas that have headlights that are not hardly bright at all. I personally had at least one issue with a deer strike that I believe could have been prevented if my headlights worked properly.

Defective headlamps that delaminate and result in dimming of the low beam headlights. Driving at night is hazardous. My car failed headlight inspection at dealership on 5/07/22. Claimed that my car was not reflected in the system as one eligible for free replacement under the class action lawsuit depsite the fact I followed all instructions. Furthermore the dealerships do not have the headlights in stock and are on backorder. They cannot give a date when they will be in. And the cost is $1400!!!!! I fear this car and other Nissan cars with dimming headlights are accidents waiting to happen. I limit my driving at night and use high beams when possible. I am a senior citizen with vision issues. Please advise. Thankyou. Denise Puttre deniseputtre@gmail.com 508-446-0939

The air bag light came on, on November 2021, and stays on all the time. When I took the car to the dealer to check what was wrong with it I was told the airbag might not deploy in case of impact. The car is less than 8 years old, but I was told it was not under warranty and there was no recall for that. I was told they had to replace two parts: 98820-9HN9ASensor-Side AIRBAG Center and 87650-9HP3ABack Assembly Front Seat, for a total cost of approximately $2400, but the parts were not available. The money was refunded to me three months later and the parts have not been replaced. I do not feel safe driving the car around; unfortunately it is the only car I have. The car is available for inspection upon request.

Light is dim, tried to replace bulb several time. Please see Suarez vs. Nissan North America

Airbag warning light in instrument panel is illuminated red and does not go off. I was told by my Nissan dealership this is not included in the recall for the passenger side airbag problem that I had previously. My vehicle has not been in any accident that would have caused the airbags to deploy and there has not been any type of water damage that could have damaged the sensor to the airbag.

The car has dangerously dim headlights. I can barely see ahead of me at night. I live in Florida and was driving in the rain at night (not by choice) and I had to go extremely slow because I could not see a thing. I contacted the dealer but they said I do not qualify for the headlight recall and I recently got the car serviced and my headlights passed inspection. However, I’ve read many complaints online from other owners with dim lights that Nissan dealerships are passing.

I own a Nissan Altima 2014 SV 4 cylinder. While driving the car stops moving and it just relies on momentum, the gas pedal stops functioning. This has happened to me multiple times I then have to turn off the car and turn it back on so it can work and it does the same thing again. I stepped on the gas pedal all the way to the floor and it doesn't respond. I started doing research and I ran into this website where people are suffering from the same problem and it has put my life and multiple people's lives in danger. These cars all range in year but the make and model is the same, Nissan Altima. I saw some posts that stated that they had the same problem with very low mileage on their vehicles. I took it to the dealership they weren't able to fix it and they gave it to me back malfunctioning and with the same safety issue and the check engine light on. I would kindly ask that this department gets involved immediately. The dealership wanted me to pay a diagnostic and refused to check the car unless I purchased new battery car terminals. I ended paying for a service I didn't need to get a car that was still malfunctioning. I refused to pay for the diagnostic after a 20 minute discussion they decided not to charge me but I had to fight for the fee to be waived. The problem is the car is still undrive-able.Here are other stories from other people with the same exact issue. https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/Discussion-t63248_ds999189

Right rear lower control arm separated from frame. Vehicle pulled right toward adjacent lane. In construction zone with no shoulder to utilize. Had to cross into an acceleration lane then slowly make way to safe pull-off. Problem confirmed by visual inspection. No warnings. Nissan did not notify me of a replacement program. Notification was to begin in 2019. Consumer was not informed of a replacement program and had to deal with a failed component and a tow from a construction site.

Rear control arm fell off while driving.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while her cousin was driving 50 MPH during the night, the low-beam headlights became inoperable. The contact activated the hi-beam headlights to illuminate the roadway for greater visibility. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was driven to the local dealer but was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 100,000.

There is a known issue with Altima headlamps that causes dimming of the lights. This resulted in a class action lawsuit. Though Nissan is making a test available to confirm eligibility for replacement, they are not providing a time frame for when they will provide dealers with parts to correct the issue. This is resulting in a severe inability to see well when driving at night especially if weather events occur and/or lighting of roads changes. I qualified, per dealer, for headlamp replacement but they cannot provide an ETA as to when the work can be done because Nissan is not giving them any sort of time frame. I have chosen to only drive roads I know during night hours, however, unexpected events like sudden rain showers or lighting being off on roadways unexpectedly - is a huge hazard and makes it difficult to see people, animals, and road markings. I am having to limit the use of my vehicle in order to drive safely, however there are times when unknown/unexpected circumstances beyond my control change visibility of roadways and the dim lights cause an enormous safety concern. That Nissan will not even provide an ETA on replacement headlamps is severely irresponsible and negligent. This is an ongoing matter and not limited to one specific date.

I bought a used 2014 Nissan Altima on/around April 13th 2022. Two weeks later my transmission gave out with barley any warning. I was driving to pick up my daughter after work when I noticed some delayed shifting. Assuming it was the car needing transmission fluid, I drove home and had planned to take the car to get it serviced at the dealership where I bought it the next day. When I left my house with my daughter the next day I got maybe 10 miles from my house when the transmission completely failed and the engine light came on. I was stalled in the middle of the road, with no working gears. The dealership I bought the vehicle from towed the car and put me in a loaner for two weeks. No clue on the price of repairs or if I’ll even be able to afford it.

CVT failed Car struggled to move if you go to 0 stop in signal or in freeway due to heavy traffic. Engine warning sign appeared in dashboard.

The rear lower control arm snapped on the vehicle and Nissan is aware of this issue through p9324 that I found online. Per the online information it is only covering 13 models in the salt belt states in the US and 13 & 14 models in Canada. This is a very dangerous condition and should be a recall of all models and years that have these parts installed in all salt belt areas.

IT'S A ROAD HAZARD YOU CAN NOT SEE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE LOW CAPACITY OF LIGHTING ON THE VEHICLE. THE LOW BEAM IS NOT ACTIVE DRIVING WITH A HIGH BEAM ON THE SHINES AS IF YOU HAD THE LOW BEAM ON. ON A VEHICLE AND HAVING TO CALL FOR A RIDE AT NIGHT. THE LIGHTING SYSTEM CLEARLY HAS SOME MALFUNCTIONING. NISSAN IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS PROBLEM IT NOT THE BULBS IT IS ACTUALLY THE HEAD LAMPS

The contact owns a Baby Trend Travel System, Model Number: TS44D23A, Manufactured Date: September 23, 2020. The car seat was being utilized in a 2014 Nissan Altima.

I went to the scene and determined the tires weren't flat but the rear left control arm was broken off. I was able to get it to our mechanics shop. When we put it on the hoist we could see not only was the left side broken off completely but the right side is cracked in the same spot on that side as well. The traction control light did light up when it happened but not before.

The low beam headlights are almost non existent. The only way to get sufficient lighting for nighttime driving is to use the hi beam lights exclusively. There is no safe speed to operate vehicle with only the low beams. It is not an issue with bulbs, but rather the entire headlight assembly. I will put a date in the "additional details" box, but it is an issue that has been an ongoing degradation of the lights and not a date specific problem.

My 2014 Nissan Altima has dangerously dim headlights. At night driver and passengers cannot tell the lights are on. In foggy, rainy, and snow conditions at night, they are virtually useless. I have had new bulbs installed, which did not improve the problem. I have been told the problem emanates from a manufacturer defect in the headlight assembly. Both headlight assemblies must be replaced, which is very costly. This safety issue could cause a traffic accident. We often must turn the high beams on just to see the roadway. This could also cause another driver to be blinded.

The rear lower control arm failed and broke in half, causing springs, shocks, struts, pins, knuckles, bolts to fracture/break or collapse. The tire bowed inward at the top and made loud knocking and rattling noises for six months. I took to three different Nissan dealers, and all told me nothing was wrong. 1/6/22 I was driving on I-90S in Chicago, IL, and when the rear driver control arm failed and craked, utterly separating. The electronic stability control, lade departure, and blindspot warning system all deactivated and gave me malfunction code on the display screen in my dash. The steering wheel loosened and turned 30-40 degrees left, causing the vehicle to spin. I was able to take back control of the car after almost being hit and killed, getting to the shoulder hitting the concrete guard rails. Nissan parts director inspected my vehicle and determined that my vehicle indeed met the failure criteria based on what occurred and the damage. Nissan N.A. denies any fault despite approving to pay and replace some but not all parts and damage caused by their defective parts. It is currently under repair order warranty approved by Nissan N.A. and being investigated because the vehicle has frame damage as result now also but continues to deny any fault.

When driving my rear control arm, on my nissan altima 2014 rusted and corroded so much that it broke in the back. When taking it to pep boys, they had said the left side was only a matter of time as well before that too suffered a similar fate. I live in Michigan which constantly uses salt to help the roads during winter. I have received an invoice of 2700 for repairs and after some googling I saw that Nissan had a major issue with this, that's great, however I was never notified via mail, emial, phone, nothing. I had no way of knowing this was going to, or happen, until after the fact.

transmission felt as if it was slipping into different gears while driving forward. pulled vehicle over put it in park and then put it in reverse- at that time the vehicle went forward instead of reverse. at that time the vehicle was put into park and turned off.

Many people complain about the sunroof leaking and the compressor. This will be the second time having issues with compressor. It effects my defrost which can be a serious safety hazard. Water accumulates in the floor boards and the headliner which causes mold and mildew which leads to respiratory issues. I paid 1200 to replace the compressor one year ago and not I am having the same issues. I see many people talk about this issue online. Standing water on the floor boards and air does not cool.

I bought my used branded 2014 Nissan Altima 1-2 years ago and did not have any issues with it until recently. Earlier this summer I received 2 notifications for my vehicle 1.) Recall notice to Reprogram Transmission Control Module and the 2nd doc. I received was a doc. which stated Nissan had extended their CVT Transmission warranty for their 2013-2016 Nissan Altimas. Some weeks ago later I started to have issues with my vehicle as it was not driving properly. I then started contacting both my local Nissan and Corporate. Nissan confirmed my vehicle VIN was one of the vehicles with transmissions issues and that I needed a transmission replacement for a cost of $4,324.11. I then opened a case and Corporate as there have multiple complaints/class actions for the same reason and they came back and stated they could not assist because I was out of the warranty year/milage. Nissan delivered a faulty transmission which they were very aware of at some point after delivery and although my transmission held off before it completely needed to be replaced I am looking for Nissan to assist financially for a new transmission which they quoted me $4,324.11 as they manufactured and delivered a faulty transmission which is a common issue with these vehicles. There have been class-action suits regarding the Continuously Variable Transmissions (“CVTs”) in model year 2013–2016 Nissan Altima vehicles.

The contact was informed that the repair was not covered under the warranty. The approximate failure mileage was 41,000.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving 45 MPH, the primary hood latch inadvertently released, causing the windshield to crack, and denting the hood and fenders. The check engine and air bag warning lights were illuminated. The dealer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the manufacturer. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened, but the contact had not heard from the manufacturer since. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V315000 (Latches/Locks/Linkages) which was associated with the VIN. However, the contact never received notification of the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 203,000.

My 2014 Nissan Altima’s transmission has to be replaced. The Nissan dealership gave me a quote of $4,093.00 to replace it. The car starts to run fine, then when at a stop and go, the car doesn’t go when I step on the gas or is delayed in going and the RPM’s are high and it feels forced. I was on the freeway and the car lost speed which was very scary because I could’ve have caused an accident. My safety and that of others was put at risk. I’ve had to stop using the vehicle until I can repair this costly issue. There were not any lights or warning messages in the car when this happened. Now that I’ve done research I know that there are many complaints and lawsuits related to the transmission issues Nissan has had for many years and they’ve done nothing about it. They should take responsibility and issue a recall on these vehicles to correct the issue.

I been trying to fix my vehicle recalls at my nearest location but they just don't got the time to work on my car, i experienced a terrible situation when i was driving on the freeway back from Los Angeles my hood opened i thank good i was driving less than 65mph with a few cars around me and my reactions was not too panic and slowly looking in all directions was able too pull aside of the freeway and closed the hood, I had family in my car and I just thank god nothing major happened I just can't imagine how terrible the situation could of end for my family and mine if i would of been going faster and not paying attention we could of lost our lives , i really do not feel safe at all driving this vehicle with my family anymore but this is our only transportation , I honestly want Nissan to upgrade me a new car i do not feel safe at all even after you guys fix it , I do not want to risk a similar situation again pleas contact me at [XXX].

I was driving and I had noticed car was about to stall out. I was in major traffic and my car shut completely down in rush hour traffic. There's a recall for CTV transmission. I had taken my car to the dealership numerous of time for them to fix the recall. The service representative had advised that they don't have the CTV parts yet. So on October 14 2021 my 2014 Nissan Altima SV shutdown on a major highway a d that God I didn't get hit. I had to call a tow truck and they towed my car to the Nissan dealership. I'm still waiting on Nissan Headquarters for an answer. Also Nissan Headquarters gave me a case number

dangerously low headlight visibility. replaced headlight at Nissan a month ago and still dim headlight.

Head lights are not visible when on low beam at night

As many other complaints I have seen on here, the headlights on the car go dim over time. If we can switch the bulb, that would be great but that doesn't solve the issue. I can barely see at night when driving. I avoid driving at night because of that reason. The manufacturer should be responsible for replacing these for the customer. We shouldn't have to wait for someone to get hurt or worse before something is done about this.

I parked my car, I tried to exit my automobile. The front driver side door would not open, the handle being very loose. I had to climb over the console and exit the passenger side of the auto. At 82 years of age, this maneuver was something certainly not expected. After exiting the car, I tried the driver side door from the outside, the door opened. I drove the car to the Nissan service center. The service employee said that he has seen this happen about 3 or 4 times and that it was a poorly designed This interior. He quoted me a price of $500 to $600 to fix the problem. I would hate to think of my husband who has arthritis as well as circulatory problems being in this situation. God forbid if someone had to exit the car in an emergency. I wouldn't want to think of being trapped in this vehicle if an emergency exit was warranted.

The contact's wife owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that at start-up, the air bag warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact took the vehicle to a dealer and was informed to call the manufacturer to see if the repair would be covered under warranty. The manufacturer agreed to pay 60% for the cost of the repair; however, once the repair was performed, the failure persisted. The contact returned the vehicle to the same dealer and the manufacturer agreed to pay for the full repair of the air bag unit. Despite the second repair, the failure persisted, and the manufacturer stated that the repair was no longer covered. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

Low beam head lights are not bright enough. I have replaced the bulbs 2 times, but no improvement at all. it is dangerous to drive with this light at nights.

The lights are horrible on a Nissan Altima 2014. I have changed the bulbs 3 different times and it does not help. I am forced to drive with my bright lights on just to be able to see. This is a huge safety hazard because I am not able to drive without them on bright so it blinds the other drivers but I have no choice.

I was driving on the interstate and a deer struck my vehicle going approximately 60-65 mph. None of the airbags deployed.The sensor lights were not on and did not indicate any airbag sensor issues. The incident damaged the radiator and my vehicle had to be towed. I could have potentially suffered a serious physical injury. Insurance representatives were contacted and the vehicle is at the repair shop currently.

My mother in law was driving this vehicle with 3 of her grandchildren (one was my son). She noticed the car seemed squirrelly on the highway. They stopped at a Restaurant and called me. I drove there and took a look. The right rear wheel was at a terrible angle. I looked underneath and noticed the right rear control arm was nearly broken apart. Picture will be attached. This could have ended much differently. The car was towed to a shop and they noticed both the left and right control arms needed to be replaced as they were both rusted out. This is on a car that was kept in a garage it's entire life. The shop told us there is a recall for Altimas for this but not for our VIN number. Why this recall was not for the vehicle is unbelievable.

When I bought the car the headlights were dim they driver side headlight keeps burning out they said it wasn't covered under the warranty whatsoever but yet you can't see at night to drive if it is dark I cannot drive my car never have been able to since about it but yet Nissan says nothing's wrong with it hit the repairs on me this is not the first time I've made a complaint about this but it does no good

On May 9, 2014, I took in my 2014 Nissan Altima (which was still under warranty) to the dealership to repair the airbag sensor light since it came on even with someone in the passenger seat who weighed over 130 pounds. The Nissan service technician checked it and failed to duplicate the concern. Sometime after that, Nissan performed a recall on the sensor. After the recall, I again took the car in as the sensor still came on periodically incorrectly. This was on 10/11/16. At that time, they said the programming had not been completed and so they completed it. This also did not fix the sensor. I took it in again on May 10, 2017. The notes on the repair order say: "Customer states intermit when passenger is occupies in front passenger seat the passenger side air bag light comes on check and advise. No active codes. Performed zero point reset." Nothing was found again. Frustrated, I didn't know what to do. Fast forward to today (August 23, 2021), I took it in to finally resolve the issue as I am interested in selling it soon. I was shocked that they came back and said it would cost me $1010.68 to fix something that I have tried to get them to fix for 7 years. This faulty sensor is dangerous and they have refused to fix something that never worked from the start despite there being a recall.

Low beams are too dim while driving at night they look like they are practically not even on at all.

On my 2014 Nissan Altima, sometimes from a stop when accelerating there is a delay. RPM's do not go up, just no movement. But if you leave the gas pedal engaged when the motor decides to work it hits hard. The danger is entering traffic. It's very scary. If it was to happen to my wife she would panic and press the accelerator more and that also creates a whole different situation... I have read that "Nissan" is not claiming any responsibility for this problem and actually hasn't fixed any customers cars because they cannot recreate this failure! Thank you, Tom

The headlights have deteriorated so badly that I cannot see to drive at night. A quick search online reveals this is a very common problem with this model. I bought the car new and it has been very well maintained. The reflective internal coating on the headlight assembly deteriorates apparently due to the high heat of the halogen bulbs. This is a tremendous safety issue. Please due the right thing and force them to recall these cars to fix this very dangerous situation.

While driving the car will suddenly jerk and starts to shake and when pressing the gas the car will not accelerate so I have had to turn on emergency lights to not get hit in the back the rpm goes up but not the mph

Low beams are extremely dim, truly making this vehicle unsafe to drive at night and at night while raining and seems the only way to correct is to replace with the same projector lights which are still defective.

The vehicle does not detect the front passenger.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving 15 MPH and coming to a stop, another vehicle crashed into the passenger side of the vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. The contact sustained injuries that she did not want to disclose and required medical attention the next day. A police report was filed. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The approximate mileage failure was 76,000.

I've been to two different Nissan service dealerships with the past month and neither have been able to fix the hood latch recall from May 2020.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at an unknown speed, the speedometer was increasing independently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 132,000.

Twice in 2 months my hood popped opened while driving on the interstate with my family in the car. The second time it popped open I was in the HOV lane which consisted of only one lane so it was quite the scare especially because there was no where safe that I could pull over. I took it to the car dealer shortly after the incident occurred and they maintenance the secondary hood latch but never did anything to the primary hood latch which should have never had opened especially while I was driving. I put in a claim with Nissan regarding the primary hood latch disengaging on its own two times in 2 months. I specifically told them numerous times that I do not feel safe driving my car anymore in that I would like to be financially compensated because now I have to go out and purchase another vehicle. I explained to them that I did not plan on buying a new car especially because my Nissan only had 77,000 MIles on it and was paid in full. I had also told them that I'm on a fixed income and having to purchase a new vehicle along with taking on car payments would cost me and my family a tremendous financial hardship. As of today Nissan has not done anything to compensate me. They are saying that I must have accidentally disengaged the primary hood latch both times the hood popped open.

The airbag light is always on. When the car is taken to a dealer for inspection, they said that the sensor under the seat is not working properly. We worry that the airbag may not deploy during an accident because the seat cannot sense the people sitting on it. It is definitely dangerous The problem has been identified by a Nissan dealer. The vehicle was inspected by the manufacturer. The airbag light stays on, even after the dealer clearing the code. It seems a lot of Nissan Altima have a similar problem.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving at 35 MPH, the steering wheel became loose and he almost lost control of the vehicle. The traction control warning light illuminated. The contact stated he was able to park the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the independent mechanic, who diagnosed that the driver and passenger rear lower control of the vehicle had failed due to corrosion. The dealer was made aware of the failure and informed that the contact would be responsible for the cost of repair since the TSB only covered vehicles manufactured in 2013. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but did not provide assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 158,000

Low beam lights extremely low, I almost hit the median because I could not see it ahead at night , even when the low beam lights were turned on. I notice the low beam light are very dim and I often have to use the Hi beam lights to be able to see the road at night. This extremely low light issue has been going on for years even after I replaced the light bulbs with brighter light bulbs. The problem is really bad , both when driving in the city and driving on the road, .

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving 35 mph, a popping sound came from the rear of the vehicle, which resulted in the vehicle losing the ability to properly steer. The contact pulled over and upon inspection, it was found that the driver’s side control arm had separated from the sub-frame of the vehicle. The contact stated that the low traction warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the residence and remained unrepaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The contact was informed that Vin was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 194,000.

While driving my car the component snapped/popped and caused me to lose control of my car and crashing into a curb in front of a pole. No warning lights came on prior to this happening. I have reached out to the manufacturer with no satisfactorily acceptable resolution. Currently I am in the hospital. The police was on the scene and the vehicle was towed to my residence due to being inoperable. I am physically, mentally and emotionally affected by this matter. Consumer stated she noticed a campaign but not a recall and her VIN was not included.

On 5/17/21 I had just left Walmart in Abington on my way to pickup my glasses. After picking up my glasses i felt wobble in the driver's side rear tire. I pulled over on Pine St. and checked the lug nuts on each wheel. Everything seemed okay. I then noticed a traction sign on the dashboard. I put on my hazard lights and drove home approximately a mile or two. When I got home I backed the car up and when I got out I notices the rear wheel drivers side bending inward at the top. I had Westgate Towing tow it after approved by AAA to Bourne's Auto for repair where i had bought the car and purchased a repair/warranty contract. Nothing was covered. No rental for a week. Paid almost $911.47 for the repair. Worried it could happen on other side. Diagnosis: Left Rear Lower Control Arm & Lateral Arm and Alignment needed.

While turning onto the entrance ramp to the highway, the lower rear control arm on the passenger side cracked and separated from the rest of the vehicle. The only thing holding the wheel on to the vehicle was a suspension coil. Steering and control of the vehicle became intermittent and I had no idea what was happening. I was driving with my pregnant daughter in the passenger seat. The "slippery road" warning light appeared on the dashboard but no other warnings or alerts. We were not injured. The vehicle was towed to our automotive repair shop. The auto repair noted that they had fixed this issue on Nissan Altima in the past and the repair was covered by Nissan. The nissanassist website states there is "a service campaign in states with high road salt usage to replace the rear suspension lower link. On some affected vehicles, and under severe corrosion conditions, one of the rear lower suspension links may corrode and separate at the bushing joint area". I live in Buffalo, NY area which is a high-salt state. Nissan will not cover this repair ($1146.57 includes NYS taxes) because the campaign does not include my VIN and was for 2013 models; my vehicle is 2014. The auto repair shop told us that the lower control arm in my 2014 vehicle was a 2013 part, so it was subject to the same defect that prompted the 2013 recall. Nissan refuses any assistance with this repair and says the VIN number is not included on the lower suspension link repair. If this type of corrosion in a high salt state resulting in breakage is a known covered issue with the 2013 model, and my 2014 model Nissan was assembled with the 2013 control arm parts, then my vehicle should not be excluded.

When the car is at a complete stop and the light turns green and it’s time to go it has a small delay for about 4-6 seconds where the car won’t move. It picks up after those 4-6 seconds. Once you turn off the car it resets itself but later on through the day it happens again . It happens to me about 2 times a day. It’s extremely scary when you’re in traffic and your car Just sits there because you can’t go.

The low beam lights offer NO light, which is extremely dangerous when driving at night and also in hazardous weather conditions. I can't see the road at all and am forced to use my high-beams. I have replaced the bulbs at least twice now and still no improvement. It is a critical issue Nissan needs to address because you can't see the road, other cars, wildlife, etc. They are putting everyone who has this model in life-threatening danger.

ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING.. REPLACED CRANKSHAFT AND CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR, REPLACED THROTTLE BODY, SPARK PLUGS, SAME PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING 20 MPH, SHE STARTED LOSING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AS THE REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE TIRE STARTED WOBBLING. AS THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO WOBBLE, HIS WIFE PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND DISCOVERED THAT THE LOWER PASSENGER'S SIDE CONTROL ARM HAD FRACTURED AND DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO HIS RESIDENCE. THE CONTACT THEN CALLED HOSELTON NISSAN (66 MARSH RD, EAST ROCHESTER, NY 14445, (585) 385-3560) AND WAS REFERRED TO THE MANUFACTURER FOR ASSISTANCE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO THE DEALER FOR THE VEHICLE TO BE INSPECTED. THE CONTACT DECLINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 147,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED RANDOM ISSUES WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP. THE VEHICLE WOULD FAIL TO EXCEED 2 MPH WITH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL DEPRESSED TO THE FLOOR. THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED WITH AN ABNORMAL SOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED FOR THE COMPUTER TO REBOOT. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE MANUFACTURER CITING A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSION. THE MANUFACTURER EXTENDED THE WARRANTY COVERAGE TO 7 YEARS OR 84,000 MILES. O'NEIL NISSAN (849 STREET RD, WARMINSTER, PA 189740) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO DTC CODES RETRIEVED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO TAKE IT TO ANOTHER DEALER FOR A SECOND OPINION. A FIELD TECHNICIAN WAS SENT TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE HOWEVER, THE FIELD TECHNICIAN HAD NOT SHOWN UP TO DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE. MONTGOMERYVILLE NISSAN (991 BETHLEHEM PIKE, MONTGOMERYVILLE, PA 18936) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT NO FAILURE CODES WERE RETRIEVED. BOTH DEALERS INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT OTHER NISSAN VEHICLE OWNERS HAD REPORTED THE SAME ISSUES HOWEVER, THE MANUFACTURER HAD NO REMEDY FOR THE REPAIR SINCE THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,665.

THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM SEPARATED FROM THE REAR SUBFRAME WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT ~50 MPH. THE FAILURE AT ~50MPH COULD EASILY RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE SINCE THE REAR WHEEL IS NO LONGER FULLY CONNECTED TO THE VEHICLE. THE STRESS OF ONE CONTROL ARM FAILING COULD RESULT IN THE OTHER FAILING AT THE SAME TIME IF THE CORROSION PROGRESSES EVENLY ON BOTH SIDES. THE 2013 MODEL ALTIMA IS COVERED UNDER A SERVICE BULLETIN TO HAVE THE LOWER CONTROL ARMS REPLACED AT NO COST DUE TO THE RISK OF FAILURE. THE SAME FAILURE OBVIOUSLY OCCURS ON THE 2014 MODELS BUT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE CURRENT SERVICE BULLETIN. THE FAILURE IS CAUSED BY CORROSION AT THE CONNECTION TO THE REAR SUBFRAME.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR YESTERDAY, THE LOWER CONTROL ARM SNAPPED. LUCKILY I WAS JUST ABOUT TO GET ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT HAPPENED. I WAS COMING UP THE RAMP TO GET TO THE FREE WAY WHICH WAS A CURVE AND I HEARD A NOISE AND BRIEFLY LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE UNTIL I STOPPED. I AM SURE RUST CONTRIBUTED TO IT BUT MY MECHANIC WAS HE'D NEVER SEEN IT HAPPEN LIKE THAT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE STARTING UP THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED SMOKE COMING THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT SHORTLY AFTERWARDS FIRE WAS COMING OUT OF FRONT HOOD. THE FIRE MARSHALS WERE CALLED, THE FIRE WAS EXTINGUISHED AND A REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO LOCAL POLICE TOW LOT WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH BEING DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

MY NISSAN IS A 2014 AND ONLY HAD 59,000 MILES ON IT. MY TRANSMISSION IS COMPLETELY SHOT AND THIS IS UNHEARD OF. IT'S A CVT MADE FROM NISSAN AND THEY ARE VERY AWARE OF THIS SITUATION SO NOW I AM OUT $2600-$4100 BECAUSE NISSAN HAS DECIDED IT DOES NOT WANT TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND CREATE A RECALL.

REFERENCE NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 20V-315. THIS WAS POSTED ON MAY 20, 2020 AND THE STATUS IS STILL SHOWING RECALL INCOMPLETE, REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE. I BELIEVE THAT AFTER 11 MONTHS SOMETHING SHOULD HAVE BEEN COMMUNICATED WITH THE OWNERS.

THE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM SNAPPED AT THE POC BUSHING WHILE DRIVING AROUND 20MPH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE LOWER CONTROL ARM FRACTURED. THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED.

THE CONTACT CALLED WEST HERR NISSAN OF ORCHARD PARK (3580 SOUTHWESTERN BLVD, ORCHARD PARK, NY 14127, (716) 954-8992) HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 114,000.

THE RIGHT REAR LOWER LINK OF MY 2014 ALTIMA COMPLETELY FAILED DUE TO RUST, LIKELY CAUSED BY ROAD SALT. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35 MPH ON A STRAIGHT SECTION OF A STATE ROAD WHEN THIS OCCURRED AND PARTIALLY LOST STEERING CONTROL. HAD I BEEN TRAVELING AT HIGHER SPEEDS, I LIKELY WOULD HAVE LOST CONTROL AND CRASHED, INJURING ME AND MY SON. NISSAN HAS A SERVICE CAMPAIGN FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE BUT IT ONLY APPLIES TO 2013 MODELS. NISSAN WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR AFTER PLEADING MY CASE AND HAD NO RATIONAL EXPLANATION FOR WHY NOT.

THE LIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. THEY DO NOT LIGHT UP THE ROAD AT ALL CAUSING A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. THIS ENDANGERS THE DRIVER, PASSENGERS, OTHER VEHICLES AND PEDESTRIANS. PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL.

THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A HIT AND RUN AND AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.*DT

THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2013-2015 ALTIMAS. THE HEADLAMP PROJECTOR BOWLS DETERIORATE AND DO NOT PROJECT THE LIGHT CAUSING A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE YOU CANNOT SEE THE ROAD AHEAD. NISSAN IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE EXPENSIVE BULBS TWICE WITH BRIGHTER BULBS AND THIS DID NOT RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL!!!!!

REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM RUSTED AND BROKEN WHILE IN MOTION. LOSS OF STEERING AS WELL AS DRIVEABILITY BEYOND 10MPH

WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT THE LOW BEAMS DO NOT LIGHT UP THE AREA ENOUGH TO SEE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, SHE BECAME AWARE THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CROWN NISSAN OF GREENSBORO (3900 W WENDOVER AVE, GREENSBORO, NC 27407) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE AIR BAG UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE, AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 49,270.

MY WIFE AND I STARTED TO NOTICE THE DIMNESS OVER A YEAR AGO, BUT IT BECAME MORE APPARENT WHEN WE DROVE THROUGH SOME BACK COUNTRY WITH WINDING ROADS FOR A WEEKEND GETAWAY WITH THE FAMILY. IT WAS STRESSFUL, SCARY AT TIMES AND OBVIOUSLY A HAZARD. I PRETTY MUCH HAD TO KEEP MY HIGH BEAMS ON FOR THE WHOLE STRETCH OF THE DARK ROADS ESPECIALLY ON SHARP AND BLIND TURNS. SINCE THAT EXPERIENCE, WE TRY TO STEER CLEAR OF TAKING TRIPS IN THE EVENING... BUT EVEN NOW ON REGULAR ROUTINE DRIVES ON FREEWAYS OR EVEN PULLING UP TO MY COURT THE DIM BEAMS ARE MORE OBVIOUS THAN EVER. I WENT TO GET MY OIL CHANGE SERVICE DONE TODAY, AND MENTIONED MY ISSUE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS AND INQUIRED ABOUT REPLACEMENTS. THEY SUGGESTED RUNNING A DIAGNOSTIC TO IDENTIFY THE SOURCE BUT IT WOULD COST $375 OR SOMETHING JUST TO DO THAT... I MENTIONED THAT THEY RECENTLY DID A DIAGNOSTIC (THAT I PAID FOR WHEN THEY WERE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT ANOTHER CONCERN I HAD WITH THE BRAKE LIGHT GOING AND NO ISSUES WERE FOUND, JUST NEEDED TO TOP OFF THE BRAKE FLUID) SO I PASSED ON IT... I THEN INQUIRED ABOUT REPLACEMENTS AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD BE ABOUT $400 TO REPLACE BOTH SIDES. FROM THAT POINT I GOOGLED COST TO COMPARE AND CAME ACROSS ARTICLES, FORUMS THAT BROUGHT TO LIGHT THAT I WASN'T ALONE WITH MY CONCERN AND ISSUE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS. AND SOME COMMENTS MENTIONED REPLACEMENTS SUCH AS HID OR LED DIDN'T DO MUCH TO HELP THE DIM BEAM. I AM NOT SURE NOW IF I WANT TO SPEND THE MONEY TO REPLACE OR KEEP GOOGLING ON WAYS TO HELP FIX THE PROBLEM IN A MORE COST EFFECTIVE WAY. HOPEFULLY THERE IS A RECALL BECAUSE THE DIM LOW BEAM IS A HAZARD THAT FIXING WILL SAVE LIVES AND MAKE IT LESS STRESSFUL AT NIGHT TO DRIVE... ESPECIALLY WHEN CARRYING SPECIAL CARGO.

AFTER MAKING A RIGHT TURN AT APPROXIMATELY 10MPH, THE CAR FELT LIKE THE CAR LOST ALIGNMENT AND REQUIRED A SIGNIFICANT RIGHTWARD TURN OF THE STEERING WHEEL (BETWEEN 1 AND 2 O'CLOCK) TO MAINTAIN POSITION IN THE LANE. ADDITIONALLY, AMBER ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, AND STABILITY CONTROL WARNING MESSAGES APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. AS I WAS LESS THAN A MILE FROM HOME, I PROCEEDED THERE ON SIDE STREETS, KEEPING SPEED BELOW 20 MPH. I PARKED ON THE STREET, AND FOUND THE LEFT REAR WHEEL TILTED NOTICEABLY INWARD AND WITH LESS CLEARANCE IN THE WHEEL ARCH. LOOKING UNDER THE CAR, I SAW THE LOWER CONTROL ARM BROKEN AT THE PIVOT POINT WHERE IT CONNECTS TO THE CHASSIS.

THE HOOD FLEW OPEN WHILE TRAVELING ON A STATE NUMBERED ROUTE APPROXIMATELY 35-40 MPH. WE WERE BLESSED THAT IT DIDN'T CAUSE A WRECK WITH INJURIES. THIS IS COMMON FROM WHAT I HAVE DISCOVERED, YET NO REMEDY. I HATE THIS FACT BECAUSE IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THE MANUFACTURER IS SIMPLY WAITING FOR ALL WHO OWN THIS VEHICLE TO PHASE OUT, SELL, AND MOVE ON. WE WILL DO THIS, TRADE TOWARDS ANOTHER MAKE FOREVER. NO NISSANS NO MORE NEVER. THANKS FOR NOTHING NISSAN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA.

THE RIGHT PASSENGER CONTROL ARM COMPLETELY CORRODED AND BROKE COMPLETELY SEPARATING FROM WHEEL

IN THE EVENING OF FEBRUARY 2ND 2021. MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HOME ON COUNTY ROAD 12 (AT A SPEED OF AROUND 50MPH) NEAR LONG LAKE, MN. SHE HEAR A LOUD SOUND AND THE CAR BECAME MORE DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. THANKFULLY THERE WAS AN EXIT THAT SHE COULD TAKE AND SHE STOPPED THE CAR AS SOON AS THIS WAS SAFE TO DO. THE NEXT DAY WE HAD THE CAR PICKED UP BY AAA AND TAKEN TO THE NISSAN DEALER (WALSER IN WAYZATA, MN). THEY DIAGNOSED THAT ONE OF THE REAR CONTROL ARMS HAD CORRODED AND COLLAPSED, WHILE THE OTHER SIDE CONTROL ARM WAS CORRODED AND NEAR COLLAPSE. BOTH WERE REPLACED AT A COST OF OVER $1,700. I CHECKED THE INTERNET AND NOTICED THAT THIS ISSUE WAS SUBJECT OF A RECALL FOR CARS UP TO MODEL YEAR 2013 (IN THE US) AND UP TO 2014 IN CANADA), RECALL REFERENCE P9324 AND THAT WITH EFFECT FROM MODEL YEAR 2018, THE MANUFACTURER HAD CHANGED THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE CONTROL ARMS AND THAT THIS WAS SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT. REPORTED TO NISSAN, CASE REPORT # 430 217 02, WHO WERE NOT HELPFUL. UPLOADING DEALER INVOICE AND SEVERAL IMAGES OF THE AFFECTED PARTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE WAS SHAKING AND VEERING TO THE RIGHT. THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT EXITED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE CONTROL ARM HAD DETERIORATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO MIKE BARNEY NISSAN (3676 SHERIDAN DR, AMHERST, NY 14226, (716) 833-9888) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CONTROL ARM WAS FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 85,000.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE POOR. NISSAN INSTALL A BRAND NEW SET OF LIGHTS AND I CAN'T SEE BUT 5 FEET IN FRONT OF MY CAR AT NIGHT. THE LIGHT ILLUMINATED IS TERRIBLE. THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY IS THE PROBLEM. THEY KNEW IT BEFORE THEY TOOK MY $130 TO REPLACE WITH LIHGHTS THAT DID ME NO GOOD. I USE HIGH BEAMS MOSTLY.

LOWER REAR CONTROL ARM ON THE DRIVERS SIDE SEPARATED WHILE DRIVING DUE TO CORROSION. I LIVE IN WISCONSIN WHERE SALT IS USED TO CLEAR SNOW. I WAS DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE ON A FREEWAY.

I RECENTLY TOOK MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA IN FOR NEW SHOCKS AND STRUTS TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC. WHEN THE MECHANIC COMPLETED THE WORK ON THE SHOCKS AND STRUTS HE COMPLETED AN INSPECTION OF OTHER PARTS OF THE VEHICLE AND FOUND THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR CONTROL ARM WAS CRACKED AND THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR CONTROL ARM WAS VERY RUSTED AND CORRODED, BUT HE COULD NOT FIND A CRACK. HE THEN ADVISED ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. HE ALSO ADVISED ME THAT HE HAD REPLACED NUMEROUS NISSAN ALTIMA REAR CONTROL ARMS BEFORE, HE WAS TOLD THAT NISSAN HAD A CAMPAIGN TO REPLACE REAR CONTROL ARMS DUE TO THEM CRACKING. I THEN HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP. AFTER SPEAKING WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER HE ADVISED ME THAT ONLY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMAS THAT ARE IN AREAS OF THE COUNTRY THAT HAVE SALT ON THE ROAD AND 2014 NISSAN ALTIMAS IN CANADA ARE BEING FIXED BY NISSAN. I HAVE A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA AND LIVE IN OHIO. NISSAN SHOULD BE EXPANDING THEIR CAMPAIGN TO 2014 VEHICLES THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AS THE 2013'S. LUCKILY, I WAS NOT DRIVING MY VEHICLE AND MY MECHANIC FOUND THE CRACK DURING AN INSPECTION. IF HE DIDN'T FIND IT, I ALONG WITH MY FAMILY OR FRIENDS COULD HAVE POSSIBLY BEEN INJURED IF THE CONTROL ARM COMPLETELY CRACKED IN HALF AND CAUSED ME TO CRASH. I HOPE NISSAN ISN'T WAITING FOR A FATALITY TO CONSIDER A RECALL. $1300.00 LATER I AM GOING TO PICK UP MY VEHICLE FROM THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. CLASS:19-002 REF#: NTB 19-082 ID#: P9324

THE REGULAR HEADLIGHTS (NOT HIGH BEAMS) ARE SO DIM THAT IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT. IN LOW LIGHT AREAS (CITY STREETS) I HAVE BUMPED THE CURB BECAUSE I COULD NOT SEE IT AND WHEN TURNING IN LOW LIT INTERSECTIONS, I AM UNABLE TO SEE WHERE THE LANES ARE, MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SAFELY TURN. I HAVE CLEANED THE OUTER PART OF THE HEADLIGHT AND REPLACED THE LIGHTS WITH NO IMPROVEMENT.

I RELEASE THE HOOD LATCH AND NOTHING HAPPENS. I HAPPEN TO GET OUT OF MY VEHICLE. MY DOWN AND THE HOOD. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, I'M ABOUT TO SLIP MY FINGERS INTO THE GRILL AND RELEASE THE HOOD LATCH. IF I DOWN PUSH DOWN ON THE HOOD, I WOULD JUST HEAR A CLICK AND THE HOOD WILL NOT GO UP. THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY.

WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT MY DIM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM ITS AS IF THEY ARE NOT EVEN ON. IT DOESNT MATTER IF IM DRIVING IN THE CITY OR COUNTRY ITS HARD AND GETTING HARDER TO SEE THE HIGHWAY. IVE COME CLOSE TO HAVING AN ACCIDENT SEVERAL TIMES. ONLY PREVENTION WAS SWITCHING TO HIGH BEAM TO BE ABLE TO SEE. SO IF I END UP HAVING AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS SOMEBODYS GOING TO BE SERVED AND SPEND MORE MONEY THAN WHAT THEY COULD HAVE BY PREVENTING IT. THIS IS DANGEROUS. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS? HOW MANY ACCIDENTS WERE CAUSED BY THIS THAT RESULTED IN DEATH? WE DONT KNOW BC THEY ARE DEAD!

LIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. A SAFETY HAZARD THAT HAS BEEN NAMED NUMEROUS TIMES ONLINE. NISSAN IS AWARE AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO REMEDY THE POOR MANUFACTURING.

LOWBEAMS DO NOT HELP AT NIGHT. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. NISSAN NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS WHICH WENT BAD WITHIN 2 YEARS OF USE.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE REARWARD CONTROL ARM BROKE FROM RUST AND CAUSE ME TO FISHTAIL ALMOST CRASHING ... I COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED BADLY!!!

DRIVING HOME AT 45 MPH ON A CITY STREET, HEARD A POP, LOST CONTROL, WAS ABLE TO DRIVE SLOW WITH HAZARDS TO REPAIR SHOP.WANING LIGHTS CAME ON IMMEDIATELY. RECEIVED NOTIFICATION THAT CONTROL ARM SNAPPED AND OTHER CONTROL ARM CRACKED. GOOGLE AND FOUND SAFETY NOTICE FOR 2013/2014 FOR RELATED TO STATES WITH HIGH ROAD SALT. US AND CANADA. US IS VAGUE POINT TO ONLY 2013 WITH CANADA STATING BOTH 13 AND 14. EXPENSIVE REPAIR THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY NISSAN IS VERY VAGUE TO AVOID PAYING THESE REPAIR COST.. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURE, THESE WAS DEFIANTLY A RUST ISSUE CAUSED FROM ROAD SALT. I LIVE IN ILLINOIS.

LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. CANNOT SEE AT ALL. MUST USE HIGH BEAM IN ORDER TO SEE WHAT IS AHEAD. HAD LIGHTS REPLACED TWICE AND DOESN'T CORRECT THE ISSUE.

DRIVING HOME FROM WORK YESTERDAY, WHILE DRIVING 65 ON THE EXPRESSWAY, I EXPERIENCED AN ODD 'SHIFT' IN MY CAR, GIVING AN ODD SWAYING SENSATION'I THOUGHT I MAY HAVE HAD A FLAT TIRE. SINCE I WAS CLOSE TO A GAS STATION, I PROCEEDED ROUGHLY A HALF MILE ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND EVENTUALLY TO THE STATION. UPON INSPECTION I FOUND THAT A PORTION OF THE WHEEL ASSEMBLY HAD COMPLETELY BROKEN FROM THE FRAME. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT NISSAN ACKNOWLEDGES THE PROBLEM AND ISSUED A "SERVICE CAMPAIGN" FOR 2013 ALTIMAS IN THE US BUT 2013 AND 2014 IN CANADA. THEIR DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS PART FAILS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR AND I LIVE IN THE "SALT BELT" THAT THEY SAY CONTRIBUTES TO THIS ISSUE. I HAVE CALLED THEIR CONSUMER AFFAIRS BUT WAS TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT RECOGNIZE THIS AS NISSAN'S RESPONSIBILITY AND ARE NOT WILLING TO REPAIR WHAT IS ALREADY BROKEN OR REPLACE WHAT WILL MOST LIKELY FAIL ON THE OTHER SIDE!

I WAS DRIVING OVER RAILROAD TRACKS ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEARD A POP AND MY CAR STARTED ACTING WEIRD LIKE I WAS DRIVING ON ICE AND SEEMED LOPSIDED. I STOPPED GOT OUT OF CAR AND NOTICED MY TIRE ON PASSENGER SIDE WAS POINTED INWARD AND MY BACK END OF CAR WAS LOW AGAINST TIRE. SOMETHING BROKE UNDER MY VEHICLE.

2014 NISSAN ALTIMA TRANSMISSION DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSTATE WIRH NO WARNING.IT WAS RUNNING FINE WHEN I LEFT FROM HOME

I PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM CARMAX WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING THAT IT WAS PROPERLY SERVICED. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 4 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS, FOR MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND OVERHEATING. SATURDAY MORNING I WENT OUTSIDE TO CRANK MY CAR SO IT CAN WARM AND IT WOULDN'T START. THIS IS RIDICULOUS, PAYING ALMOST $400 A MONTH FOR A CAR I BARELY DRIVE.

HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH TO SAFELY OPERATE VEHICLE AT NIGHT OR RAINY AND/OR FOGGY WEATHER.

I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 35MPH, HIT A SMALL POTHOLE & THE REAR CONTROL ARM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE SNAPPED. NOT KNOWING ABOUT THE SERVICE CAMPAIGN (THAT CAME OUT IN 10/2019- I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 02/2020) I TOOK IT UPON MYSELF TO GET THE PART FIXED. ALMOST $500 OUT OF MY POCKET. FAST FORWARD 10 MONTHS, DRIVING 70 ON THE HIGHWAY, DIDN'T HIT A POT HOLE OR ANYTHING... THE DRIVERS SIDE SNAPPED. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE AS I LOST CONTROL OF MY CAR FOR A SOLID 15 SECONDS. HOW ARE ONLY THE 2014 ALTIMAS IN CANADA ELIGIBLE FOR FREE REPAIRS BUT A CAR IN NY STATE IS NOT? I HAVE A CASE OPEN AND WILL BE EXPECTING A CALL ON 02/08. REALLY HOPING NISSAN STEPS UP TO ASSIST WITH REPAIRS AS THIS WILL AMOUNT TO ALMOST $1,000 IN NOT EVEN A YEAR..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, THE REAR CONTROL ARM DETACHED FROM THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE WITHOUT WARNING. DUE TO THE DEFECT, THE CONTACT BEGAN TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AS THE VEHICLE SWAYED FROM SIDE TO SIDE. DESPITE THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME WHERE IT REMAINED IN HER POSSESSION. THE CONTACT CALLED RUSS DARROW NISSAN OF MILWAUKEE (11212 W METRO AUTO MALL, MILWAUKEE, WI 53224) AND SENT OVER PICTURES OF THE DAMAGE WHERE THEY CONFIRMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS A DEFECTIVE REAR CONTROL ARM. THE CONTACT WAS THEN REFERRED TO THE MANUFACTURER WHO INFORMED HER THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

I WAS TRAVELING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY ON JANUARY 25, 2021, WHEN I HAD NO ACCELERATION. DESPITE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, I HAD NO POWER. THE RPM NEEDLE WAS ALMOST TO THE RED ZONE. I WAS ABLE TO COAST OFF OF THIS HIGHWAY, ONTO ANOTHER HIGHWAY. I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF, LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES, AND RESTARTED IT. I STILL HAD NO FOWARD GEAR. I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A LOCAL NISSAN DEALER (SANSONE, NEPTUNE, NJ). AFTER AN EXHAUSTIVE BATTLE BETWEEN THE DEALER AND NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, IT WAS DETERMINED MY TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, BASED ON THE COMPUTER CODES. THE COST IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY - THE EXTENSION COVERED UP TO 84K MILES, MY ALTIMA HAS 101K. I WAS TREATED POORLY BY THE DEALERSHIP, AND NISSAN CORPORATE. I NEVER GOT NOTIFICATION ABOUT ANY RECALLS, APPARENTLY NOTICES WERE SENT TO A FORMER EMPLOYMENT ADDRESS - I RETIRED FROM THAT PLACE 3 YEARS PRIOR TO PURCHASING THE ALTIMA IN 2015. MY RECORDS SAY ITS A 2015, YOURS INDICATE IT'S A 2014. THE TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY, ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH. THANKFULLY, AS A POLICE OFFICER, I HAD THE NECESSARY SKILLS TO GET OFF THE ROADWAY, DESPITE ALMOST BEING IN A SERIOUS COLLISION. THIS IS AN EGREGIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, AND NISSAN'S LACK OF CONCERN IS ABHORRENT. I CANNOT AFFORD THE $4400 PRICE TAG TO REPLACE THIS TRANSMISSION, WHICH WAS POORLY MANUFACTURED. THE DEALERSHIP "FIXED" THE "COMPUTER UPDATE" TO THE TRANSMISSION, AS WELL AS "LUBING" AND NOT REPLACING THE THE FAULTY HOOD LATCH. NOTABLY, THEY ALLEGEDLY DROVE THE CAR THROUGHOUT THE DAY ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 29, BEFORE DECLARING THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FACT THAT THIS TRANSMISSION JUST QUITS, WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, IS A DEATH TRAP.

VISIBILITY HAS ALWAYS BEEN BAD. CANNOT SEE WELL DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROJECT.

CAN NOT SEE WITH LOW BEAMS ON. HIGH BEAM WORKS FINE BUT CAN'T SAFELY DRIVE WITH LOW BEAM ONLY.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT ON DRIVER'S SIDE IS VIRTUALLY NONEXISTENT. VERY HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT.

WHEN M VEHICLE GETS BETWEEN 1000-2000 RPM THE VEHICLE SHAKES AND HAS PROBLEM PICKING UP SPEED. ONCE OVER THE 2000 RPM, THE VEHICLE HAS NO PROBLEMS.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM, IT IS A HAZARD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. WE REPLACED THE BULBS AND RESTORED THE LENSES BUT NOTHING HELPS. IF YOU SEARCH THE INTERNET, THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. YOU CAN'T SEE 50' IN FRONT OF YOU. THESE HEADLIGHTS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND NISSAN SHOULD BE FIXING THIS PROBLEM DON'T WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO GET KILLED IN A CAR ACCIDENT BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE PLEASE!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HER HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AT 70 MPH, WHEN THE REAR PASSENGER LOWER CONTROL ARM DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO PARK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED THE LOWER CONTROL ARM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 118,000.

AS OF NOVEMBER 2020, THE AIRBAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED ON. IT INITIALLY OCCURRED WHEN STARTING THE CAR AND THERE WERE NO PASSENGERS. MY CONCERN IS WHETHER THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY PROPERLY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

I WAS DRIVING WHEN MY CAR STARTED TO JERK AND A SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT APPEARS ON THE DASHBOARD BUT I CONTINUED DRIVING ON CITY STREET. I GOT TO A LIGHT ABOUT TO TURN AND THE CAR WOULD NOT GO FORWARD BUT ONLY ROLL BACK. IT?S THE CVT TRANSMISSION CAR WAS LOST POWER P0776 CODE WAS FOUND

PRIMARY PROJECTOR-STYLED HEADLIGHTS LOOSE THEIR INTENSITY OVER THE YEARS, TO THE POINT THAT THEY NO LONGER ILLUMINATE THE ROAD AT NIGHT.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON CONSISTENTLY.

MY LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. I CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. I HAVE REPLACE THE LIGHT BULBS AND THAT DID NOT HELP. I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAM ON BUT WITH INCOMING TRAFFIC I HAVE TO GO BACK TO LOW BEAM AND IT'S LIKE THE INCOMING TRAFFIC IS BLINDING ME. I CAN BARELY DRIVE THE CAR A NIGHT DUE TO THIS ISSUE. IT'S BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTS. THEY ARE GETTING WORSENED BY THE DAY.

HOOD LATCH DEFECTIVE THEY STATE RECALL BUT NO REMEDY AND CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING LOCKING ME IN CAR IN MIDDLE OF ROAD OR INTERSECTIONS

IT MAKING A LOUD SOUND SINCE I HAD NEW BRAKES PUT ON

DRIVING AT NIGHT IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME TO DRIVE WITH MY KIDS HOME I'M A SINGLE PARENT THE HEADLIGHTS MAINLY LOW BEAMS ARE VERY VERY LOW YOU CAN EVEN TILL THEY ARE ON THE POLICE PULLED ME OVER AND MADE A JOKE SAYING I WOULD BE BETTER OFF USING TWO FLASHLIGHTS CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME THE PROBLEM OR HELP I ALMOST WAS IN A ACCIDENT WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR IS THE LOW BEAMS THE HIGHBEAMS I'VE HAD TO RESORT TO PUT A FOG LIGHTS ON MY CAR THANK YOU PLEASE RESPOND

THE CHROME AND I HAD LIGHT LAMP IS BURNING IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL THROUGH NISSAN THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT I'D LIKE THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BULBS AND THERE IS ZERO VISIBILITY AT NIGHT.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM, CHANGED BULBS, CLEANED HEADLIGHTS NOTHING FIX THE PROBLEM, NEED TO CHANGE COMPLETE HEADLIGHTS

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND ARE KEEP GETTING DIMMER, CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE CAR AT NIGHT USING THE DIM BEAM OF THE HEADLIGHTS.

VEHICLE TRAVELING STRAIGHT ON HIGHWAY AT APPROX. 65 MPH. VEHICLE JERKED IN A FISHTAIL MANNER TO THE LEFT HAND DRIVERS SIDE. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY, DISCOVERED A COMPLETELY FLAT TIRE (PURCHASED ONLY 2 WEEKS AGO). VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM WAS SEVERELY CRACKED, UNSAFE TO DRIVE. SERVICE MEMBER ALSO ADVISED ME THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE AND THAT I NEEDED TO GO THROUGH NISSAN USA CONSUMER AFFAIRS SINCE MY VEHICLE (ALTHOUGH THE MILLIONS OF ISSUES ON RECORD) TO HAVE MY REPAIR APPROVED. VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT DEALERSHIP AND I AM AWAITING NISSAN USA CONSUMER AFFAIRS TO CALL BACK TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. VEHICLE IS APPROX. 7K MILES OUTSIDE OF 60K MILE WARRANTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT HAD STATED THERE AN ABNORMAL BURNING ODOR COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED AND ACCELERATED AS DESIGNED. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED HEADQUARTER NISSAN (1725 WHITTLESEY RD, COLUMBUS, GA 31904; (706) 225-8100) HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000.

HEADLIGHTS NO LONGER LIGHT THE ROAD ADEQUATELY ON THE DIM SETTING. TRIED REPLACING BULBS BUT NO IMPROVEMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT ADEQUATELY ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY CAUSING A VISIBILITY HAZARD TO THE DRIVER. AFTER REPLACING THE LIGHT BULBS, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT WON'T TURN OFF. I'M UNSURE WHICH AIRBAG, BUT FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THE LIGHT ON MEANS AIRBAGS WON'T DEPLOY CORRECTLY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. IT STARTED ON 12/13/20 AND HAS CONTINUED THROUGHOUT 12/14/20. THE LIGHT STAYS ON REGARDLESS OF WHAT POSITION IT'S IN. PARKED, TURNING, DRIVING, ETC.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM PUT OUT ALMOST ZERO LIGHT, IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THERE ARE MANY THREADS ON THE INTERNET AND THIS IS IS A KNOWN ISSUE.

LOW BEAM LIGHTS DO NOT WORK TO WHERE YOU CAN'T SEE 50 FEET IN FRONT OF YOU. REPLACED THE LIGHT BULBS AND STILL NOT ANY BETTER. HUGE SAFETY CONCERN WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT

THE DIM HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY BECAME DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE 50FT IN FRONT OF YOU WITH THE LIGHTS ON DIM. THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR SQUEAKED WHEN THE CAR WAS NEW AND WHEN THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY THE INTERNAL CLIP ON THE VISOR BROKE.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE PULLING INTO A GAS STATION, THERE WAS A POPPING SOUND COMING FROM THE VEHICLE FOLLOWED BY A RATTLING SOUND. THE CONTACT BECAME AWARE THAT THE REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE TIRE WAS SLIGHTLY BENT. THE CONTACT THEN LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED RUST NEAR THE BOLT AND JOINT WITH THE CONTROL ARM, AS WELL AS, A FRACTURE. A CERTIFIED MECHANIC INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE REAR CONTROL ARM FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. MANCHESTER CITY NISSAN LOCATED AT 30 TOLLAND TURNPIKE, MANCHESTER, CT 06042; (860) 398-4326) WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 107,000.

HEADLIGHTS ARE USELESS ON LOW BEAM. IT'S LIKE DRIVING WITH FLASHLIGHTS TAPED TO THE CAR. DRIVING AT NIGHT IS VERY DANGEROUS. A SEARCH ON INTERNET REVEALS PAGES OF NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. WHY IS NISSAN NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT?

I WAS DRIVING WHEN MY CAR STARTED TO JERK AND A SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT APPEARS ON THE DASHBOARD BUT I CONTINUED DRIVING ON CITY STREET. I GOT TO A LIGHT ABOUT TO TURN AND THE CAR WOULD NOT GO FORWARD BUT ONLY ROLL BACK. IT'S THE CVT TRANSMISSION PER TWO SHOPS THAT RECEIVED CODES FOR THE TRANSMISSION. ALSO I SEE WHERE NISSAN HAS A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS THERE VEHICLES. EVEN THOUGH MY WARRANTY IS EXPIRED I HAVE ABOUT 140,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE CLEARLY IT'S SOMETHING WITH THE EQUIPMENT.

THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2013-2015 HEADLIGHTS BECOMING SO DIM THE VEHICLE ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE IN LOW LIGHT CONDITIONS. THROUGH A LOT OF RESEARCH AND MONEY OF REPLACING BULBS AND TIME PULLING THE HEADLIGHTS APART IT'S APPARENT THE REFLECTIVE MATERIAL IN THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS IS BURNT OFF OR OXIDIZED PREVENTING THE HEADLIGHT FROM FUNCTIONING PROPERLY ALLOWING THE DRIVER TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE SAFELY IN ANY DRIV ING CONDITIONS AT ALL. NISSAN HAS NOT RECALLED THESE FAULTY HEADLIGHTS AND REFUSES TO CORRECT THIS UNSAFE ISSUE.

I HAVE BEEN HEARING A CLUNKING SOUND FROM REAR OF CAR FOR FEW YEARS MULTIPLE TRIPS TO DEALERS AND HAD THEM LOOK INTO NOISE. THE ONLY THING THEY CAME UP WITH IS THE SHOCKS WERE BAD, I REPLACED THEM AND CAR STILL HAD THE CLUNKING SOUND. I WAS RETURNING HOME FROM TRIP TO STORE AND WHEN ENTERING MY DRIVEWAY OFF PUBLIC SIDE ROAD @ ABOUT 2MPH THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR CONTROL ARM BROKE CLEAN OFF FROM THE MOUNT BOLTED TO THE FRAME AND THE TIRE CRASHED INTO THE INNER FENDER AND TWISTED TO ~45 DEGREE ANGLE. I KNOW THAT THE 2013 HAS A RECALL IN USA AND CANADA AND CANADA ALSO HAS RECALL FOR 2014 FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. IF THIS HAD BROKE WHILE I WAS ON EXPRESSWAY 5 MINUTES EARLIER THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS INJURY TO MYSELF AND PASSENGERS NOT TO MENTION ANY BODY ELSE THAT COULD HAVE IN MY PATH. WHEN DEALER REPLACED DRIVER SIDE HE SAID THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ALSO AS IT WAS SHOWING STRESS CRACKS. THE CAR IS GARAGE KEPT AND LOCATED LOCATED IN WISCONSIN I HAVE ALL THE PARTS THAT CAME OFF THE CAR IF ANYTHING IS NEEDED I CAN BE REACHED @ [XXX] REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC

MY HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. I REPLACED THE HALOGEN BULBS, AND IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I ALSO TRIED TO SWITCH TO LED BULBS, BUT THAT DID NOT FIX IT EITHER. ON HIGHWAYS, IT'S HARD TO SEE STREET SIGNS AND ON MULTI-LANE FREEWAYS, THE LANE MARKERS ARE HARDER TO SEE BECAUSE I'M GOING AT A FASTER SPEED. ON TOP OF THAT, I CANNOT SEE FURTHER AHEAD ON ANY ROAD AND ONCOMING CAR'S HEADLIGHTS THAT ARE BRIGHTER THAN MINE MAKE THE PROBLEM EVEN WORSE. I NEED THIS PROBLEM FIXED.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS TO SEE SAFELY. THIS STARTED IN 2019 AND IS GETTING WORSE.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. IT LOOK LIKE THE CHEAP MATERIALS OF THOSE HEADLIGHTS ARE THE PROBLEM.

THE LOW BEAM ON MY NISSAN ALTIMA IS EXTREMELY DIM. IS SO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. MY FRIEND GOT AN ACCIDENT LAST NIGHT BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. I HAVE TO USE THE HIGHT BEAM WHEN I'M DRIVING AT NIGHT, THIS IS ALSO ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE WHICH AFFECTS THE THE OTHER DRIVES BUT WE HAVE TO, OTHERWISE WE COULD HIT SOMEBODY.

HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM! EVEN AFTER CHANGING BULBS, IT'S STILL DIM. I HAVE TO PUT MY HIGH BEAMS TO SEE AT NIGHT. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH THIS CAR.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS' BRIGHTNESS HAS DEGRADED OVER TIME, SINCE CAR WAS NEW IN DECEMBER 2013. SUSPECT PROJECTORS HAVE DEGRADED.

HEADLIGHT DON'T WORK AS THEY SHOULD THERE TO DARK I NEED TO PUT MY HIGH BEAMS TO SEE A LIL BETTER

I'VE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH NISSAN REGARDING THIS, BUT THEY STATED THAT THE NHTSA IS THE AGENCY RESPONSIBLE FOR ISSUING RECALLS BEFORE THEY WOULD ADDRESS ANY VEHICLE ISSUES OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE HAS ABOUT $1,500 WORTH OF REPAIRS NEEDED BECAUSE OF SOME RUST/CORROSION ISSUES WITH THE REAR LOWER LINKS. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH, I DISCOVERED THAT THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT IT ONLY APPLIES TO 2013 ALTIMAS IN THE US, BUT BOTH 2013 AND 2014 ALTIMAS IN CANADA. SO I WANTED TO REACH OUT TO YOU AND SEE IF YOU COULD ADD A LITTLE INSIGHT INTO THIS AND HOW IT MAKES ANY SENSE THAT THERE IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE 2014 ALTIMAS AND SO THEY OFFER A PROGRAM LIKE THIS, BUT THEN LEAVE OUT THE 2014 MODEL IN THE US, BUT INCLUDE IT IN CANADA? IT'S THE SAME MODEL VEHICLE REGARDLESS OF IF IT'S IN CANADA OR THE US AND I FEEL QUITE CONFIDENT THAT CANADA'S ROAD SALT USAGE IS NOT SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN MINNESOTA'S. AS IS EVIDENCED BY THE FACT THAT MY VEHICLE HAS THIS ISSUE AND THAT THE 2013 MODELS WERE INCLUDED WITH THIS CAMPAIGN FOR SELECT US STATES. SO IF YOU COULD ADD THE 2014 ALTIMAS IN THE US TO THIS CAMPAIGN/RECALL, IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. I HAVE A VIDEO SHOWING THE ISSUES FROM WALSER NISSAN IF WOULD BE HELPFUL. PLEASE ADVISE.

VERY DIM LIGHTS , I CAN NOT SEE ANYTHING IN THE DARK

TL* THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER-IN-LAW OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING DOWN A SIDE STREET SHE HEARD A POPPING NOISE AND HAD TROUBLE STEERING THE VEHICLE. AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT FLASHED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND WHILE ATTEMPTING TO REVERSE, THE REAR WHEEL COLLAPSED UNDER THE WEIGHT OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT IT WAS THE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM THAT WAS FRACTURED.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,000.

I OWN A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA, OVER THE TIME OF OWNERSHIP I HAVE NOTICED THE HEADLIGHTS GETTING DIMMER AND DIMMER, I ASSUMED IT WAS THE BULBS AGING AND REPLACED THIS ON 02/15/2020. THE NEW BULBS (SILVANIA SILVERSTARS) WERE SUPPOSED TO BE BRIGHTER. THERE WERE NOT MUCH BRIGHTER. LATER WHEN I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SUGGESTED NEW HEADLIGHT ASSEMBALLIES AS THE CHROME PAINTING ON THE INSIDES OF THE LENSES HAS FADED AND AS A RESULT IS NOT REFLECTING MUCH LIGHT ONTO THE ROAD. THE ESTIMATED COST OF THIS REPAIR WAS 800$. I HAVE NEVER OWNED A CAR WHERE THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE FAILED IN THIS MATTER AND AS A STUDENT IT IS UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS TO HAVE LOW BEAMS THAT ARE SO DIM THEY DO NOT EVEN APPEAR TO BE ON AT NIGHT. GOOGLING THIS ISSUES SHOWS MANY FORUMS WHERE PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE I WAS HAVING WITH NEW HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES FIXING THE ISSUE

DRIVING SLOW IN A 25MPH NEIGHBORHOOD MADE A TURN HEARD A CLUNK THOUGHT I HAD A FLAT TURNED AROUND LESS THAN A 1/2 A MILE BACK HOME LESS THAN A BLOCK. HAD I MADE IT TO THE FREEWAY THE RESULTS COULD'VE BEEN MUCH WORSE. CALLED MY MECHANIC AND HE ORDERED A PART, DECIDED TO LOOK AND IT SEEMS THIS MAY BE A PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE CONTACT SWITCHED LANES AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SWERVE AND SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT VEERED TO THE SHOULDER AND CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND INSPECTED ON THE FLAT BED TRUCK. THE MECHANIC NOTICED THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE LOWER CONTROL ARM WAS FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. RON BOUCHARD'S NISSAN (490 OLD UNION TPKE, LANCASTER, MA 01523) WAS CONTACTED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VIN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CONTACT NHTSA TO LOG A COMPLAINT. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: EA19002 (SUSPENSION) OPEN INVESTIGATION FOR THE SIMILARITY IN THE FAILURES STATED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 101,000.

THE CONSTANT VELOCITY TRANSMISSION (CVT) DIED WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THIS FAILURE OF THE CVT IS PREMATURE AT LESS THAN SERVICE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. CVT FAILURES FROM RESEARCH ARE QUITE TO COMMON TO BE AN ANOMOLY

I HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY HEADLIGHTS. THEY ARE EXTREMELY TOO DIM. I CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. MY BRIGHT LIGHTS WORK GREAT. SOMETIMES I FEEL AS IF THEY ARE NOT ON. I HAVE CHANGED THE BULBS SEVERAL TIMES. IT IS MUCH DIMMER ON THE DRIVER SIDE THAN THE PASSENGER, BUT THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT IS STILL DIM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NOW. I'M NOT SURE WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED BY NOW. SOMEONE WILL MOST DEFINITELY GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE ALMOST WRECKED SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS. THIS NEED TO BE A MAIN CONCERN FOR NISSAN. THEY ARE RISKING OUR LIVES. HOW MANY BULBS DO I HAVE TO CHANGE? ON DARK ROADS I HAVE TO PUT MY BRIGHT LIGHTS ON BUT WHEN ANOTHER VEHICLE IS COMING THEN I HAVE TO CUT MY BRIGHT LIGHTS OFF. WHEN I DO THIS THEN I FEEL AS IF I'M GOING TO GO OFF THE ROAD. I CANNOT SEE AT ALL. THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT PROBLEM AND NEED TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. I'M PRETTY SURE THAT THERE HAS BEEN ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS. I HAD TO PUT A DATE ON THIS BUT THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE LAST YEAR. I'M A NURSE AND I HAVE TO LEAVE EARLY IN THE AM FOR WORK ON A DARK ROAD. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

THE DRIVER'S SEAT IS LOOSE. 2 SCREWS CAME OUT AND YOU CAN ROCK THE SEAT BACK AND FORTH. BUT STILL ATTACHED.

ON 9/9/2020 MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA HOME FROM AN ERRAND WHEN SHE FELT THAT THE STEERING WAS COMPROMISED. AFTER ARRIVING HOME SHE ASKED ME TO DRIVE THE CAR. I PROCEEDED TO BACK OUT OF OUR DRIVEWAY AND AFTER TRAVELING ONLY ABOUT 6' THE DRIVER REAR WHEEL 'DROPPED'. BEFORE EXITING THE VEHICLE I TOLD HER THAT IT FELT LIKE THE WHEEL HAD FALLEN OFF. I CRAWLED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND FOUND THAT THE REAR DRIVER CONTROL ARM HAD COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH CAUSING THE PART TO FAIL. I SPOKE TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND LEARNED THAT THERE WAS NOT AN OPEN RECALL FOR THE 2014 ALTIMA BUT THERE WAS FOR THE 2013 ALTIMA. I THEN DECIDED TO INVESTIGATE ON THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION WEBSITE. I LEARNED THAT THE 2013-2018 CONTROL ARM SHARE A SIMILAR DESIGN WHEN FURTHER READING NHTSA ACTION NUMBER EA 19002. I ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS RECALL FOR THE 2014 ALTIMA IN CANADA AND WE LIVE 17 MILES FROM THE CANADIAN BORDER. I FEEL THAT THE RECALL FOR THIS PART SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE MODEL YEAR 2014-2018 BECAUSE OF THE SHARED DESIGN.

CONTROL ARM/REAR SUSPENSION LOWER LINK RUSTED OUT AND LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR ON THE TACONIC STATE PARKWAY. NO INJURIES.NISSAN HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS ISSUE SINCE 2103. WONT REPLACE AS THEY STATE CAR HAS TOO MANY MILES WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RUSTING OUT. IT STATES ON THEIR WEBSITE A SERVICE CAMPAIGN AGREEING THAT SEVERE CORROSION OCCURS IN STATES WITH HIGH ROAD SALT USAGE AND NEW YORK IS ONE OF THESE STATES. WHY ISNT THIS A RECALL? SHAME ON NISSAN. HAD WE BEEN ALERTED TO THIS SERVICE CAMPAIGN WE WOULD HAVE HAD IT INSPECTED ON A REGULAR BASIS TO AVOID THIS MISHAP. NISSAN ALSO STATED SINCE THE CAR WAS NOT TOTALED, THEY WILL DO NOTHING. PLEASE ALERT ANYONE WHO OWNS A NISSAN ALTIMA TO BE AWARE! WE WILL BE FIXING THIS CONTROL ARM AT OUR EXPENSE AS WELL AS THE OTHER CONTROL ARM AT OUR EXPENSE SO THAT THIS WILL MAKE THE CAR SAFE AND TO AVOID A MAJOR ACCIDENT OR DEATH. IF THE AIRBAG WAS DEFECTIVE, WOULD THAT MATTER OF THE MILEAGE OF THE CAR? ITS A SAFETY ISSUE!

TRANSMISSION 1ST GEAR OR 2 GEAR DELAYS SHIFT AND SHUTS DOWN . SOON AS I PULL OFF MY ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION DOES THIS LOUD GRINDING NOISE AND STOPS MOVING

WHEN I AM IDLE AT A RED LIGHT AND GET READY TO TAKE OFF, I STEP ON THE GAS AND THE RPM HAND MOVES HOWEVER,T HE VEHICLE DOESN'T AND THEN IT SUDDENLY JUMPS TO TAKE OFF. MANY TIMES I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BECAUSE OF THE DELAY OF THE VEHICLE NOT MOVING AND MY FOOT IS OFF THE BREAK. DRIVERS WOULD ASSUME I AM GOING.

MY HOOD LATCH DOES NOT CLOSE LIKE IT SHOULD. THE WHEELS ARE SHOWING TO HAVE A WHEEL BEARING PROBLEM. POPS WHEN PRESS ON BRAKES AND TURNING. ALSO MADE A BIG "BANG" NOISE.

THE RIGHT REAR CONTROL ARM BROKE ON MY VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING. I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ONLY ON A 30 MPH ROAD AT THE TIME. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR POSSIBLY KILLED. THERE WAS A RECALL/REPLACEMENT PROGRAM IN CANADA FOR THIS TYPE OF ISSUE ON THE 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA, BUT NOTHING IN THE U.S. THE REPAIR COST ME $730 DUE TO HAVING TO DROP THE REAR SUSPENSION IN ORDER TO REPLACE THIS PART WHICH MADE THE JOB LABOR INTENSIVE. I FEEL THAT THIS TYPE OF ISSUE SHOULD ALSO BE COVERED IN THE U.S.

FOR SEVERAL MONTHS THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT HAS BEEN WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. SOMETIMES THE LIGHT SHOWS UNOCCUPIED WHEN AN ADULT IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGERS SEAT. I DON'T KNOW IF THE AIRBAG IS WORKING PROPERLY OR NOT. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE NISSAN DEALER IN LEESBURG, FL LAST WEEK FOR ROUTINE SERVICE AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THEY PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND DID NOT FIND ANY FAULT CODES. THEY THEN GOT IN AND OUT OF THE SEAT SEVERAL TIMES AND SAID THE AIRBAG LIGHT DISPLAYED PROPERLY. THE NEXT DAY WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THE SEAT THE LIGHT AGAIN SHOWED UNOCCUPIED. WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL REGARDING THIS PROBLEM.

HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE EXTREMELY DIM. IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAS OFFERED TO REPLACE THEM FOR $700 PLUS THE LABOR!. ARE THEY REPLACING WITH THE SAME LIGHTS SINCE THEY INSIST THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTS?

I BOUGHT A 2014 NISSAN IN 2017 ALTIMA MAKE: I HAD TAKEN THE CAR IN BECAUSE IT WOULD DELAY IN REVERSE.

NOW LOOKING BACK ON, 08/20/19 I HAD PROBLEMS WITH GETTING PARK IN GEAR, IT WOULD GET STUCK, THE INVOICE SAYS INTERNAL FAILURE TO INTERNSHIP SOLENOLD REPLACED INTERLOCK SHIFT. I FOUND ON THIS INVOICE IS WHEN I TOLD THEM THERE WAS A DELAY, NOTE: NO PROBLEM FOUND AT THIS TIME", I RECEIVED A LATE NOTE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE CVT TRANSMISSION, MY CAR BROKE DOWN ON 08/06/2020 ED HICK AGREES TO PAY 1/2 OF BILL $4,1000 IN ANY AVANT I WAS TOLD THE RECALL CAVED HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH FIXING TRAIN, I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASE THE CAR THAT THE RECALL REPROGRAMMING WOULD AFFECT THE TRAIN IF NOT CAUGHT IN TIME. I CAN NOT PAY AND SHOULD NOT PAY FOR A FACTORY RECALL ON THIS DAMAGE DONE. I JUST LOST MY JOB, AND ELDERLY, AM HANDICAP. CASE NUMBER [XXX], CAMPAIGN NUMBER PC490.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S AND FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR LATCHES BECAME DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO FRED ANDERSON NISSAN OF RALEIGH (9225 GLENWOOD AVE, RALEIGH, NC 27617) TWICE TO HAVE BOTH DOOR LATCHES REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE WAS A FAILURE WITH THE DOOR LATCHES HOWEVER, A RECALL WAS NOT PLACED ON THE VEHICLE FOR THE DOOR LATCHES. A MECHANIC EXPLAINED TO THE CONTACT THAT THE TWO CLIPS INSIDE THE DOOR LOOSENED OVER TIME WHICH CAUSED THE DOOR LATCHES TO BECOME DEFECTIVE. THE MANUFACTURER HAD YET TO BE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.*DT*JB

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS CAR BEING TOO DIM TO BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. NOW I CAN'T EVEN PASS STATE INSPECTION DUE TO THIS ONGOING ISSUE

HAVING PROBLEM WITH HEADLIGHTS. HAVE CHANGED BULBS OUT WITH SEVERAL DIFFERENT BRIGHTNESS. STILL NOT VERY BRIGHT. MAKES IT VERY HARD TO SEE.

THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THEY DID NOT REIMBURSE OR FIX AT NO CHARGE. NOW MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. THIS IS THE WORST CAR I EVER BOUGHT.

2014 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5SL AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON

THE DRIVER SIDE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT IS SIGNIFICANTLY DIMMER THAN THE PASSENGER SIDE ONE. I HAVE CHANGED MULTIPLE BULBS AND NONE CAN FIX THE DIMNESS BEING EXPERIENCED. I SUSPECT THIS ISSUE HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE HOUSING AND I KNOW OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME MODEL THAT HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. PS, I'M NOT THE FIRST OWNER OF THE CAR AND I'VE SEEN THIS ISSUE SINCE PURCHASE. SO I'LL SET THE DATE TO TODAY'S DATE.

THE SYSTEM THAT DETERMINES WHETHER THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY ON MY VEHICLE IS NOT FUNCTIONING AND IS DEFAULTING THE AIRBAG TO NOT DEPLOY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY DEALER FOR A QUOTE AND WAS TOLD IT WILL COST UP TO $1,800.00 TO FIX. I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN AT LEAST ONE RECALL PERTAINING TO THIS SYSTEM ALREADY (RECALL NUMBER 15V681000). I ALSO ASKED IF THERE WAS A WAY TO HAVE THE AIRBAG ALWAYS SET TO DEPLOY BUT WAS TOLD THAT WAS NOT POSSIBLE. AN $1,800.00 FIX FOR A CRITICAL SAFETY FEATURE IS A HAZARD THAT WILL DRIVE PEOPLE TO ACCEPT UNDUE RISK. A RECALL FOR AFFECTED NISSAN VEHICLES TO REPLACE THE SYSTEM OR WHICH WOULD DEFAULT THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY WOULD MITIGATE THE RISK TO THE POPULATION.

AIR BAG LIGHT FOR PASSENGER SEAT KEEPS COMING ON WHEN IN MOTION

LOWER CONTROL ARMS NEED TO BE REPLACED, FRONT STRUTS NEED TO BE REPLACED, AND POWER STEERING MOTOR. MY POWER STEERING WILL FAIL WHILE DRIVING, FOR 2-3 SECONDS AT A TIME, MAKING MY STEERING WHEEL UNABLE TO TURN. WHILE IN MOTION

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTED INTO REVERSE, THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL SQUEAKING NOISE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO LOKEY NISSAN (27758 US HWY 19 N, CLEARWATER, FL 33761) WHERE SHE WAS INFORMED THAT THE NOISE WAS NORMAL VEHICLE OPERATION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 38,000.

THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG IS LIT WHEN STARTING AND REMAINS LIT WHILE DRIVING. MY CONCERN IS THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY ON IT'S OWN WITHOUT IMPACT OR POSSIBLE WILL NOT DEPLOY UPON IMPACT.

WHERE THE MILEAGE SCREEN IS IT KEEPS BLINKING ON AND OFF AND STAYS BLACK OUT MAJORITY OF THE TIME I CAN'T SEE MILES AND I CAN'T SEE WHAT THE GEAR IT IS IN ON THE DASH BOARD . WHEN THE WEATHER OUTSIDE REACH OVER 95-100 THE DASH BOARD STARTS TOO LIGHT UP AND BLINK LIGHTLY TOO SEE THE MILES MY CAR HAS IT IS A WIRE ISSUE AND SHORTAGE SOMEWHERE ON ELECTRICAL PART . SECOND ISSUE IS THERE IS A RECALL ALREADY ON THE HOOD LATCH AND NISSAN DEALER TELLING ME THEY CAN NOT FIX IT UNTIL THEY HAVE A SOLUTION MY HOOD WILL NOT LATCH SO I AM DRIVING AROUND WITH A HOOD THAT CAN FLY OPEN AND CAUSE A ACCIDENT ANY MINUTE AND BEING THERE A RECALL NISSAN IS GONNA BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL DAMAGES

HOOD LACH BROKEN AND DISENGAGES AUTOMATICALLY WITHOUT BEING OPENED BY CAR OPERATOR. CAN OPEN WHILE THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR OPERATING. THE MANUFACTURER SENT ME A RECALL NOTICE TO SAY THE REMEDY WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL MID 2021. I THINK THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE GIVEN THE HOOD MAY FLY OPEN WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND THE DRIVER IS UNABLE TO SEE OUT OF THE FRONT WINDOW. I AM WRITING BECAUSE THIS SITUATION PRESENTS A PTENTIAL EMERGENCY.

BOTH THE LEFT AND RIGHT REAR CONTROL ARMS CRACKED DUE TO RUSTING. MY CAR OPERATES IN OHIO, A STATE THAT USES SALT TO CLEAR THE ROADS. ALL THE 2013 MODELS WERE RECALLED FOR THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT, HOWEVER MY CAR WAS BUILT 9/29/13 AT THE START OF THE 2014 PRODUCTION. THEY WERE STILL USING THE SAME PARTS, SINCE AT THIS POINT THEY DID NOT KNOW THEY WERE DEFECTIVE, BUT DID NOT RECALL THE CARS INVOLVED TO BE REPAIRED. THE RESULTING LOSS OF CONTROL COULD BE FATAL IF IT HAPPENS ON THE FREEWAY. FORTUNATELY, MY CAR DID NOT EXPERIENCE THAT CATASTROPHIC LEVEL OF IMPACT. HOWVER, IF MY CAR WAS SHIPPED TO CANADA IT WOULD BE PART OF THAT AS THEY RECALLED ALL 2014'S. WHY ISN'T THAT THE CASE HERE AS THEY ALL CAME OFF THE SAME ASSEMBLY LINE WITH THE SAME PARTS. THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED IN THE U.S. MY CAR STARTED MAKING VERY LOUD CLUNKING NOISES AS THE PARTS WERE CRACKING AND I STOPPED DRIVING IT AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE, AND NISSAN KNOWS IT EXISTS, LOOK AT ONLIMNE REVIEWS WITH THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE, INCLUDING YOUR OWN SITE, AND YOU CAN SEE JUST HOW BAD THIS ACTUALLY IS. PLEASE TAKE THE STEPS TO EXPAND THIS RECALL FOR THE SAKE OF ALL OF US WHO OWN THIS CAR.

WE PURCHASED A NISSAN ALTIMA SV, THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN SO DIM THAT AT NIGHT, IN RAIN, SNOW ETC. THEY PROVIDE NO ADEQUATE LIGHT TO LIGHT THE ROADWAY IN FRONT OF THE CAR. WE HAVE TO RESORT TO TURNING ON OUR HIGH BEAM ALMOST CONTINUOUSLY TO SEE THE ROAD AND OBSTACLES. WHAT WE HAVE FOUND OUT IS THAT IT IS A DEFECT IN MATERIALS AND IT WILL COST ME APPROXIMATELY $1000 TO FIX, WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD. AT THIS TIME NISSAN IS SILENT ON THE ISSUE. I FEEL LIKE THE LIVES OF MY FAMILY AND OTHERS ON THE ROADS ARE ENDANGERED BY THESE DEFECTIVE LIGHTS THAT NISSAN REFUSES TO ADDRESS. I HAVE HAD THE BULBS CHANGED AND IT DOES NOT IMPROVE THE HEAD LIGHT QUALITY.

LLEFT, REAR LOWER SUSPENSION CONTROL ARM BROKE. THIS WAS DISCOVERED BY THE INSPECTION STATION. WE HAD BEEN HEARING A GROANING/SQUEAK FOR 4 WEEKS BEFORE IT WAS DISCOVERED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, WHEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALER CENTRAL VALLEY NISSAN LOCATED AT 4530 MCHENRY AVE, MODESTO, CA 95356, (209) 526-3320,WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING JETTER TO BE REPLACED.

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS ARE BECOMING DANGEROUSLY DIM TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THEY HAVE BEEN WHAT I BELIEVE DIM FOR A FEW YEARS, BUT HAVE BEEN PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE. TO THE POINT I FEEL IT IS NOW A SAFETY HAZARD FOR ME TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, I AM REALIZING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2014-2106 NISSAN ALTIMA. I GUESS THE COATING INSIDE THE PROJECTOR BEAM LIGHT HOUSING WEARS OFF OR DETERIORATES PREVENTING A GOOD BEAM OF LIGHT. CHANGING TO A HIGHER QUALITY LIGHT BULB ALSO DOES NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM. ONLY WAY TO FIX IS APPARENTLY TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE LIGHT HOUSINGS WHICH FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND COST AROUND $1000 FROM NISSAN. I HAVE SEEN ENOUGH COMMENTS FROM OTHER NISSAN ALTIMAS WITH THIS SAME GENERATION, THAT I FEEL THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT NISSAN SHOULD BE ADDRESSING.

LOW BEAM LIGHTING IS EXTREMELY DIM MAKING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO MOVE FORWARD INTERMITTENTLY UPON DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE FAILURE OCCURRED AFTER COMING TO A STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS HOWEVER, THE MECHANICS WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ALSO TOOK THE VEHICLE TO JEFF WYLER NISSAN OF CINCINNATI (8680 COLERAIN AVE, CINCINNATI, OH 45251) WHERE THE MECHANIC DUPLICATED THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 140,000.

MY HEADLIGHTS ON DIM QUIT WORKING SO I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BULBS, WENT TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND HAD NEW BULBS PUT IN AND IT WAS JUST AS BAD IF NOT WORSE. CALL THE DEALER THEY SAID IT WAS THE PROJECTION SYSTEM THAT ALOT OF THESE MODELS HAD THAT PROBLEM BUT IT WASN'T A RECALL YET. I CHECKED ON GOOGLE AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND DON'T HAVE THE 1200.00 TO GET IT FIXED. WHEN I TURN MY LIGHTS ON DIM IT IS LIKE SOMEONE SHUT THEM OFF COMPLETELY. THIS CAR IS USELESS AT NIGHT AND I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN BECAUSE OF THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT THEY SHOULD BE A RECALL ON AND ISN'T. SOMEONE WILL DIE IN THIS CAR ONE DAY I JUST HOPE I CAN GET RID OF IT BEFORE IT IS ME OR ONE OF MY GRANDKIDS. A CAR WITH NO LIGHTS ARE NIGHT IS A DEATH TRAP!!

THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH MAY BECOME STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION DUE TO A POTENTIAL FOR CORROSION (IN REGIONS WITH EXCESSIVE ROAD SALT USE) IN THE HOOD LATCH COMBINED WITH IMPROPER INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE. REMEDY IS NOT AVAILABLE NOW!

I BROUGHT A 2014 ALTIMA FROM A DEALERSHIP IN 2018. I NOTICE WEEKS AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR THAT IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY AND EVEN STALL OUT WHILE IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY OR TRYING TO ACCELERATE AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. I HAD A NEW TRANSMISSION PUT IN. NOW A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATER THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING AGAIN. THE MECHANIC SAYS THAT ITS THE SAME PROBLEM DUE TO A FAULTY TRANSMISSION PART(CVT) TRANSMISSION. THIS SHOULD BE RECALL DUE TO NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS I HAVE SEEN AND MOSTLY THE DANGER IT IS CAUSING FOR NISSAN CUSTOMERS. THIS IS A HAZARDOUS AND COSTLY ISSUE. NISSAN SHOULD RECTIFY THIS IMMEDIATELY

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. EVEN WITH BRIGHTS, THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY ADEQUATE TO SEE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE AT AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE REAR CONTROL ARM ON THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE WERE FRACTURED. THE CONTACT CALLED TEAM NISSAN MANCHESTER LOCATED AT 70 KELLER ST, MANCHESTER, NH 03103, AND INFORMED THE DEALER OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS A REPLACEMENT PROGRAM HOWEVER, THE PROGRAM WAS NOT APPLICABLE TO THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 92,000.

WHEN GOING UP OR DOWN DRIVE WAY WHEEL MAKES POOPING SOUND CAR ALSO SWAY BACK IN FORTH ON FREEWAY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE ON A STATE HYW 165 TRAFFIC HAD STOPPED AND WE JUST WERE SLOWLY BEGINING TO ACCELERATE WHILE CHANGING LANES TO NAVIGATE AROUND THE EQUIPMENI IN THE ROAD. AS I CHAGED LANES IT FELT ASTHOUGH THE BACK END OF THE CAR SLID OUT. I NOTED THAT I HAD TO KEEP THE STEERING WHEEL TURNED 45 DEGREES TO THE LEFT TO DRIVE STRAIGHTAND THE SLICK ROUD WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH ACTIVATED. AFTER PULLING OVER IN A SAFE LOCATION I FOUND THAT THE PASSANGER SIDE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM HAD BROKEN.

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, THE HOOD POPPED OPENED AND HIT THE WINDSHIELD. MY VISION WAS OBSTRUCTED BUT I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THERE IS EVIDENT DAMAGE TO BOTH FENDERS AND POSSIBLY THE HOOD. I CURRENTLY DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. NISSAN ACKNOWLEDGES THE FAILURE AND INCIDENT, HOWEVER WILL NOT REPAIR MY VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLAMPS FAILED TO PROVIDE ENOUGH ILLUMINATION TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLAMP LENSES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT WARRANTY MILEAGE WAS EXCEEDED, THEREFORE THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD HAVE TO BE PAID FOR OUT OF POCKET TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.

AFTER TURNING A CORNER, THE CAR FELT LIKE IT WAS BEING DRIVEN ON AN ICY ROAD AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS ALIGNED TO THE RIGHT EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN ON A STRAIGHT ROAD. DID NOT DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN UNTIL IT WAS TAKEN IN FOR REPAIR. TWO DAYS LATER, WHEN DRIVING THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR (ABOUT 5 MILES AWAY), THE DRIVER SIDE REAR WHEEL WAS WOBBLING, SEVERELY SHAKING THE CAR. DROVE THE CAR ONLY 25 MPH. ONCE AT THE REPAIR SHOP, REPAIR NEEDED WAS FOR THE CONTROL ARM. LEARNED THE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA MODELS HAD A RECALL FOR THE CONTROL ARM. OUR CAR IS A 2014. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS IN LATER MODELS. *LN*JB

I PURCHASED MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA 6 YEARS AGO. OVER TIME THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE BECOME VERY DIM. IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITHOUT USING MY HIGH BEAMS BECAUSE MY HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM. I CANNOT DRIVE IN THE RAIN AT NIGHT BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE THE MARKINGS ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE CHANGED THE BULB AT LEAST 4 TIMES AND THAT HAS NOT HELPED. I HAVE OTHER DRIVERS FLASHING ME BECAUSE THEY THINK MY LIGHTS AREN'T ON.THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE. IT SHOULD NOT TAKE A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT WITH CASUALTIES TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE. THERE SHOULD BE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL ON THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA.

THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER DEEMED THE VEHICLE A TOTAL LOSS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT AUTO BODY FACILITY. THE CONTACT STATED NO LOCAL DEALER WAS CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED AS SHE RESEARCHED ON-LINE AND FOUND SEVERAL RECALLS THAT INVOLVED THE AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOYING HOWEVER HER VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALLS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 140,000.

FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS, I CHANGED THE LIGHT BULBS 3 TIMES. THE PROBLEM IS THE PROJECTORS NOT THE LIGHT. THIS IS ACCIDENT ABOUT TO HAPPEN. THEY ARE JUST CANDLES. I MUST DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAM WHICH IS VERY BRIGHT AND IT NOT FAIR FOR THE DRIVER IN FRONT OF ME. NISSAN DEALER WANTS $700 TO REPLACE THE PROJECTORS.

LEFT REAR LOWER CONTRL ARM BROKE WHILE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN.WAS ABLE TO PULL OF THE ROAD AND HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP AD WAIT WHILE THE PART WAS ORDERED.

REAR CONTROL ARM CRACKED AND BROKE OFF WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT WARNING, CAUSING PARTIAL LOSS OF CONTROL AND HANDLING. VEHICLE WAS INITIALLY ON A STREET WHEN INITIALLY NOTICES, COMPLETE FAILURE WHEN BACKING UP IN DRIVEWAY AFTER INITIALLY NOTICED. *TR

I CAN BELIEVE IT, I'M ON VACATION IN FLORIDA AND IT'S ALREADY WENT BAD. I WAS DRIVING MY CAR NICELY AND SUDDENLY LOST A BIT CONTROL OF STEERING WHEEL SO I STOPPED AND CHECKED WHEELS AND WHEN I LOOKED UNDERNEATH PASSENGER REAR WHEEL THERE IS CONTROL ARM CRACKED. CALLED AND TOWED IT TO NISSAN DEALER SPEND SO MUCH MONEY WHICH I DON'T HAVE ON TOWING, HOTEL, LYFT, CALLED MY HOTEL IN CLEARWATER TO LET THEM KNOW, EVERYTHING IS SCREWED NOW , AND THEY SAY HERE THAT NISSAN WON'T FIX IT. *TR

LIGHT ARE ON BUT TOO DIM TO SEE IN FROM ON ME. BULBS AND HOUSING HAS BEEN REPLACED BY DEALERSHIP BUT IT KEEPS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH ONLY 6 MILES ON IT IN 2014. I ONLY DROVE MY CAR FROM SCHOOL TO HOME, AS THIS WAS MY WORK VEHICLE. I FINISHED PAYING FOR MY NISSAN IN NOVEMBER OF 2019. MY NISSAN RECENTLY REACHED 90,000 MILES AND BEGAN TO SHUT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. THE ENGINE BEGAN TO JERK AND IT WOULD NOT MOVE IT WERE PLACED IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. THEN AT TIMES WHEN PLACED IN DRIVE THE ENGINE WOULD SHAKE AND ROAR LOUDLY, AND SHUT OFF. MY DAD HAD TO COME AND TOW THE CAR IN TWICE DUE TO IT NOT SHUTTING DOWN ON THE INTERSTATE AND IN TRAFFIC. THE NISSAN WOULD JUST STOP ACCELERATING AND LOSE POWER. IF IT CRANKED BACK UP AT STOP LIGHTS OR STOP SIGNS IT WOULD ACCELERATE SO SLOWLY THAT I WOULD GET CAUGHT UNDER RED LIGHTS OR IN THE MIDDLE OF ON-COMING TRAFFIC. IT WOULD SLOWLY PICK UP SPEED WITH THE ACCELERATED PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, BUT THERE WOULD BE A BURNING SMELL THAT THE CAR WILL GIVE OFF AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THE ENGINE IS IN THE WRONG GEAR, WHILE IN DRIVE. *TR

1.) THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON AND THEN TURNS OFF AFTER A FEW DAYS. 2.) WHEN I AM ABOUT TO GO WHEN THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN, MY CAR DOESN'T TAKE OFF WHEN I HIT THE GAS PEDAL. THIS INCIDENT CAUSE MY CAR TO BE VERY SLOW INTO ON GOING TRAFFIC WHICH CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT ESPECIALLY WHEN I AM TURNING TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT. IT HAPPENS VERY FREQUENT DURING MY DAILY DRIVES. *TR

DRIVER DOOR HANDLE PIECE SNAPPED LAST NIGHT AND CAN NO LONGER OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE. ONLY THE OUTSIDE. *TR

THE DYING IN THE STREETS AND NO POWER TO GO BACK OR FRONT DYING ON STOP LIGHT START O 05/10/2020 NO LIGHTS ON PANEL IS ON. *TR

PASSENGER AIR LIGHT IS ON AND WON'T GO OFF. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THE AIRBAG. I HAVEN'T HAD NO ACCIDENT, BUT IF THIS SHOULD HAPPEN AND THE PASSENGER AIR BAG DOESN'T WORK. LOOK OUT NISSAN. YOU'LL NEEDS TO RECALL THESE AIRBAGS. I SEE NEARLY 700 COMPLAINT. *TR

HEAD LIGHTS BECAME VERY DIM OVER TIME, EVEN WITH NEW BULBS; EVENTUALLY COULD ONLY SEE WELL A FEW YARDS AHEAD OF THE CAR. OTHER CARS WE CURRENTLY OWN AND HAVE PREVIOUSLY OWNED HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. AFTER SEARCHING FOR A SOLUTION ONLINE, HAD THE FULL HEAD LIGHT ASSEMBLY REPLACED ON BOTH SIDES. THIS RESOLVED THE PROBLEM. DEALER DID NOT INDICATE ANY KNOWLEDGE OF THIS PROBLEM AND WOULD NOT DO THIS FOR FREE, EVEN THOUGH THIS WAS SAFETY HAZARD. PURCHASED THE REPLACEMENT ASSEMBLIES FROM CARPARTS.COM. REPLACEMENT WAS DONE BY LEXINGTON AUTOWORKS.

MY LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE BARELY LIGHTING UP THE ROAD EVEN AFTER CHANGING THE BULBS. IT'S COMING FROM THE SILVER HOUSING PART THAT HOLDS THE BULBS AND NISSAN NEEDS TO REPLACE THIS. I ALMOST HIT A PERSON WALKING LAST NIGHT. I WAS DRIVING DOWN A DARK ROAD GOING SLOW. I HAVE TO USE MY FOG LIGHTS JUST TO HELP ME OUT SOME AND IT'S STILL NOT ENOUGH LIGHTING. MY BRIGHTS WORK GREAT IT'S JUST THE LOW BEAM.

MY 17 YEAR OLD SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR ABOUT A MILE FROM OUR HOME (GOING ABOUT 20 MPH) WHEN HIT HIT A BUMP AND THE BACK AXEL BROKE. FORTUNATELY HE WAS CLOSE TO HOME WHEN THIS HAPPENED. HAD HE BEEN ON THE INTERSTATE, HE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED. MY HUSBAND CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT WITH NISSAN ALTIMAS FROM THIS YEAR BUT THAT OUR VEHICLE WAS NOT ON THE LIST OF VINS THAT QUALIFY FOR REIMBURSEMENT. WE REPAIRED THE VEHICLE WHICH COST ABOUT $400 IN LABOR AND $225.49 IN NISSAN PARTS. THE VEHICLE HAD ABOUT 80,000 MILES AT THE TIME. THIS SEEMS LIKE A CLEAR CASE OF FAULTY PARTS.

OUR 17 YEAR OLD SON WAS DRIVING UR 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA ABOUT A 1/4 MILE FROM OUR HOME. HE HIT A BUMP AND IMMEDIATELY FELT THE STEERING PULL. HE GOT HOME AND WE LOOKED UNDER THE CAR AND SAW THAT THE REAR CONTROL ARM WAS RUSTED THRU AND HAD BROKEN. THANKFULLY HE WAS NOT ON THE INTERSTATE OR GOING FASTER WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT, SECURED PORTION BOLT IS BACKING OUT AND/LOOSE. FEAR OF FAST STOP OR ACCIDENT SEAT BELT RESTRAINT WILL NOT HOLD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO CLOSE THE HOOD, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE HOOD FAILED TO LATCH SECURELY. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

TRANSMISSION DOES NOT ENGAGE (CAR DOES NOT MOVE IN DRIVE OR ANY OTHER SHIFT POSITION. *TR

THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL NOT SHUT OFF AFTER RESET. *TR*DT*JB*DT

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT THE CAR CANNOT BE DRIVEN AT NIGHT. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL FOR NISSAN TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM AS IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE CARS. *TR

JUNE 2019, VEHICLE STARTED TO JUDDER, SHAKE AND STALLED OUT AT RED LIGHT. PUT THE CAR IN PARK, RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, PUT IT INTO DRIVE AND IT STALLED AGAIN. THIS HAPPENED 3 MORE TIMES UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE. APPROACHING ANOTHER SET OF LIGHTS, VEHICLE SLOWING DOWN AND THE JUDDER AND SHAKING BEGAN, I DID NOT COME TO A COMPLETE STOP SO THE CAR DID NOT STALL. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. I THEN LET THE CAR SIT FOR 2 DAYS BEFORE I DROVE IT AGAIN AND WHEN I TEST DROVE IT AFTER THOSE 2 DAYS, THE CAR SEEMED TO BE BETTER, IT DID NOT STALL OUT. IT DID SHAKE A LITTLE AND JUDDER. NO PROBLEMS LIKE THAT OCCURRED UNTIL 3/9/2020. APPROACHING A RED LIGHT, CAR JUDDERS, STARTED SHAKING AND STALLED OUT. I THEN PUT THE CAR INTO PARK, RESTARTED, FROM PARK TO DRIVE, IT STALLED. I REPEATED THIS PROCESS FOR 5 MINUTES. I HAD TO GET OUT OF THE CAR AND PHYSICALLY PUSH THE CAR OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. 3/10/2020 DROVE THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. SAME THING HAPPENED IN THE VEHICLE ON MY WAY THERE. JUDDERING, SHAKING AND STALLING. I WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN AND MAKE SURE I DID NOT LET THE VEHICLE COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BECAUSE IT WOULD STALL OUT. I WENT ON THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE THAT WAS THE EASIEST ROUTE. THE ENTIRE TIME THE CAR WAS SHAKING AND I WAS GOING 60MPH, WHICH WAS 5MPH UNDER SPEED LIMIT. PARKED THE CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP. EXPLAINED TO THE TECHNICIANS WHAT WAS WRONG, ONE OF THE TECHNICIANS TOOK MY VEHICLE FROM WHERE I PARKED AND BROUGHT IT INTO THE GARAGE. HE CONFIRMED MY CAR WAS JUDDERING, SHAKING AND STALLED. THEY NOTIFIED ME THE CAR WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO BE LOOKED AT POSSIBLY UNTIL 3/16. MY CAR SAT THERE FOR A FEW DAYS, LIKE IT DID BACK IN 2019 WHEN THIS FIRST OCCURRED. UPON FURTHER REVIEW OF THE DIAGNOSTICS TEST, THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE STALLING, JUDDERING AND SHAKING. SO THEY DID NOT REPLACE THE CVT TRANSMISSION INSTEAD THEY REPLACED THE VALVE PIPE

I HAD AN AIRBAG LIGHT COME ON RECENTLY. MY NISSAN DEALER SAID THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SIDE AIRBAG WHICH IS BUILT INTO THE DRIVER'S SEAT AND WOULD REQUIRE THE BACK PORTION OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A 2014 ALTIMA WITH LESS THAN 30K MILES ON IT ALREADY HAVING AN AIRBAG FAULT OUT OF NOWHERE WITH NO ACCIDENT. IT CONCERNS ME THAT I AM HAVING TO FOOT A $1600 BILL TO FIX A PIECE OF SAFETY EQUIPMENT THAT THE MANUFACTURE SEEMS TO HAVE POORLY MADE.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH. HALOGEN, LOW BEAM (H11) BULBS ARE WHAT IS REQUIRED FOR THIS VEHICLE, BUT OT IS NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH. SWITCHING OUT THE HALOGEN FOR HID AND LED IS ALSO NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH. THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS ILLUMINATE UP TO 1 - 2 FEET IN FRONT OF VEHICLE. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT THE LOW BEAM IS NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH TO SEE WHAT IS IN FRONT OF YOU AND IS A SAFTY ISSUE.

PULLED INTO A HANDICAP PARKING PLACE, ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR ACCELERATED FORWARD AT A HIGH SPEED. KNOCKING DOWN THE HANDICAP SIGN AND WENT THROUGH A STORE GLASS WINDOW.WE SAT THERE IN SHOCK NOT NOTHING WHAT JUST HAPPENED. THE POLICE ARRIVED AND A SAID IT MUST HAVE BEEN THE GAS PEDAL, THEY ASSUME SINCE I WAS A OLDER PERSON THAT I HAD STEPPED ON THE GAS PEDAL INSTEAD OF THE BRAKE. I KNOW I HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. I FEEL THIS IS DIFFERENTLY A RECALL PROBLEM. NISSAN HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM SINCE 2000 AND NO ONE HAS DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I HAVE LOST MY LICENSE AND MY INSURANCE OVER THIS. PLEASE TAKE THIS MATTER SERIOUSLY! WHAT IF THIS WAS A SCHOOL CROSSWALK AND CHILDREN WERE GOING ACROSS. I WORKED IN THE HOSPITAL FOR 47 YEARS NOW IT'S TIME FOR ME TO TRAVEL AND ENJOY MY RETIREMENT. I CAN'T EVEN GO TO THE DOCTORS OR GROCERY STORES. PLEASE SAVE OUR CHILDREN AND OUR COMMUNITY. THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK AT THE TIME THIS HAPPED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT-END OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED IT SEEMED AS THOUGH IT WAS A BEARINGS ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN OFFICIALLY DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,500. *BF CONSUMER WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST 4K TO REPLACE NEW TRANSMISSION. *JB

TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC 4/28/18. I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WHEN TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD OR IN REVERSE. I WAS TRAVELING WESTBOUND ON EAST CHELTENHAM AVENUE IN MELROSE PARK, PA. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO FAULKNER NISSAN WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED DUE TO A CVT ISSUE. I WAS REIMBURSED FOR TOWING (REIMBURSEMENT WAS OFFERED BY NISSAN) AND I WAS GIVEN A LOANER VEHICLE WITH A NEW TRANSMISSION AT NO COST.

LIGHTS ARE TOO DIM AND I CANT SEE AT NIGHT OR EARLY IN THE MORNING. I HAVE CHANGED THE BULB NUMEROUS TIMES AND NOTHING HELPS. I HAVE CHANGED TO HD AND EVEN LED AND NOTHING HELPS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, THE HOOD FLEW OPEN WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V116000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES) AND WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT CALLED SIMMONS-ROCKWELL NISSAN LOCATED AT (224 COLONIAL DR, HORSEHEADS, NY 14845) WHERE SHE WAS REFERRED TO THE MANUFACTURER FOR ASSISTANCE. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED HER THAT AN INSPECTOR WOULD BE SENT TO HER LOCAL DEALER FOR AN INSPECTION. THE INSPECTOR DETERMINED THAT THE SECONDARY LATCH WAS DEFECTIVE. THE INSPECTOR PLACED A ZIP TIE ON THE LATCH AND REFERRED HER BACK TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER OFFERED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 146,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE CONTROL ARM SNAPPED CAUSING LOSS OF STABILITY, CONTROL AND DRIVABILITY. UPON INSPECTION BY MECHANIC THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR CONTROL WAS ABOUT TO BREAK ALSO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT'S SON WAS DRIVING AT 35 MPH, WITHOUT WARNING THE VEHICLE PULLED TO THE RIGHT. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND DROVE AT LOW SPEEDS TO THE RESIDENCE WHERE HIS FATHER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE. THE INSPECTION SHOWED THAT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM WAS FRACTURED AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM WAS EXTREMELY CORRODED. HAWKINSON NISSAN LOCATED AT (5513 MILLER CIRCLE DRIVE, MATTESON, IL 60443, (708) 252-3769) WAS CONTACTED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE TAKEN IN TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000.

WHILE DRIVING CAR SUDDENLY BECAME VERY UNSTABLE AND WOBBLED UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN. AT THE TIME I WAS TRAVELING AT A LOW SPEED SO I WAS ABLE TO STOP WITHOUT LOSING CONTROL. HAD THIS OCCURRED ON A HIGHWAY, IT COULD HAVE BEEN DANGEROUS TO MYSELF AND OTHERS. ON INVESTIGATION LOWER REAR CONTROL ARM HAD SNAPPED ON PASSENGER SIDE. APPARENTLY THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH NISSAN ALTIMAS. CURRENTLY DEALER IS REFUSING TO REPAIR UNDER AGREEMENT WITH NHTSA BECAUSE THAT ONLY IMPACTS 2013 MODELS. THIS WAS THE SAME ISSUE AS THE AGREEMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND RESPONDED ABRUPTLY AT AN ABNORMAL SPEED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO GERALD NISSAN OF NORTH AURORA (213 HANSEN BLVD, NORTH AURORA, IL 60542) WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE HOWEVER, NO ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,000.

I HAVE A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5S MODEL. AFTER THE FIRST COUPLE YEARS I NOTICED THE HEADLIGHTS GETTING DIMER AND DIMER TO THE POINT WHERE IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. I HAD THE OE BULBS REPLACED WITH LID LIGHTS AND IT DID NOTHING FOR THE PROJECTION OF THE HEADLAMPS STILL DIM. SO I THAN HAD HID BULBS PUT IN AND SAME THING NO PROJECTION OUT OF THE LENSES. I GOT ON A NISSAN FORUM AND IT TALKED ABOUT THE INSIDE OF THE LENS LOOSING ITS REFLECTING ABILITY. SO I WENT TO THE NISSAN DEALER IN RENTON WHERE I HAD PURCHASED MY CAR AND WAS TOLD TO CALL THE NISSANS 800 NUMBER. I DID CALL AND SPOKE TO A JENNIFER. TOLD HER EVERYTHING I JUST STATED ITS OBVIOUS IF YOU LOOK THRU THE LENS THAT YOU CAN SEE THE INTERNAL REFLECTION ABILITY IS GONE. SHE TOLD ME I HAD TO TAKE IT TO NISSAN AND PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIRS TO GET IT BACK TO OE. IF YOU LOOK AT THE NISSAN FORUM THIS IS A SEVERE OCCURRING ISSUE. SO YONKER NISSAN AND NISSAN OF NORTH AMERICA IT SEEMS SAFETY IS NOT AN ISSUE TO ME OR MY FAMILY SO NEITHER IS MY BUSINESS THAT GOES FOR BOTH OF YOU.. AND I DO HOPE YOU TRAIN YOUR NISSAN OF NORTH AMERICA STAFF ON THE MAGNUSSON ACT CAUSE AFTERMARKET GIVES A 10 YEAR WARRANTY ON THE LENS ASSEMBLIES TO YOUR 1 YEAR.SO I DON'T HAVE TO TAKE IT TO NISSAN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MPH, THE BEAM PROJECTED FROM THE HEADLAMPS WERE INADEQUATE FOR SAFE VEHICLE OPERATION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HI-BEAM WAS ACTIVATED FOR SAFE VEHICLE OPERATION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. A LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,300.

2014 NISSAN ALTIMA S, PROJECTOR HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY IS DEFECTIVE AND IN ORDER TO SEE AT NIGHT, I MUST DRIVE WITH MY HIGH-BEAMS. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME OVER $200 JUST TO "TROUBLESHOOT" THE ISSUE EVEN THOUGH I TOLD THEM ABOUT THIS DEFECT. A LOT OF NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS FROM 2013-2018 ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE, YET NISSAN DOES NOT ISSUE A RECALL AND WE ARE EXPECTED TO PAY THEM ABOUT $1,000 FOR A NEW SET OF HEADLAMP ASSEMBLIES. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE HELP US GET NISSAN TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DEFECTIVE DESIGN AND ISSUE A MANDATORY RECALL AT THEIR EXPENSE. THANK YOU.

WE BOUGHT OUR NEW 2014 ALTIMA IN DECEMBER 2013. ON FEBRUARY 4, 2020, WITH 151,000 MILES, MY WIFE WAS DRIVING A WINDING COUNTY ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH AND EXPERIENCED A PROBLEM WITH HER ALTIMA. SHE STATED THAT IT WAS LIKE THE CAR WAS ON ICE AND NEARLY UNCONTROLLABLE. I WENT TO HER AND DISCOVERED THAT THE LEFT REAR CONTROL ARM WAS SEVERED AT THE ATTACHMENT TO THE CHASSIS. I DROVE THE CAR ABOUT ONE MILE AT LESS THAN 20 MPH AND IT WAS TERRIBLE! I TOLD THE DEALER TO REPLACE BOTH CONTROLS ARMS AND I DEMANDED THE PARTS BE RETURNED TO ME. UPON INSPECTION OF THE PARTS, THE RIGHT CONTROL ARM HAS SEVERE CRACKING AND WOULD HAVE FAILED IN THE SAME MANNER WITHIN DAYS OR WEEKS. I SPOKE WITH NISSAN NORTH AMERICA. THEY CLAIMED TO BE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM ON 2013 MODELS ONLY. I REQUESTED THAT NISSAN EXTEND THEIR REPAIR CAMPAIGN TO ALL AFFECTED YEARS AND NOTIFY OWNERS OF THIS SAFETY CONCERN. THEY HAVE REFUSED. THEY HAVE ALSO REFUSED TO COVER THE EXPENSE OF OUR FAILURE, WHICH TOTALS NEARLY $1800 INCLUDING A RENTAL CAR. AT A MINIMUM, NISSAN SHOULD BE REQUIRING THEIR DEALERS TO INSPECT THE CONTROLS ARMS OF ANY AFFECTED ALTIMA THAT IS BEING SERVICED. THEY SHOULD BE COLLECTING DATA ON THE INSPECTIONS, AND THEY SHOULD BE REPLACING ANY CONTROL ARM THAT IS SHOWING SEVERE DEGRADATION BEFORE IT FAILS. OUR ALTIMA WAS IN FOR SERVICE LESS THAN 3 WEEKS PRIOR TO FAILURE AND NO RELATED CONCERNS WERE BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION. PER NHTSA'S OPEN INVESTIGATION #EA19002, THIS FAILURE IS PRIMARILY IN THE AREAS WHERE ROAD SALT IS USED. ROAD SALT MEANS THESE AREAS ARE PRONE TO SLIPPERY ROAD SURFACES. JUST IMAGINE THIS FAILURE HAPPENING ON A SLIPPERY ROAD! THE RESULTS COULD BE DISASTROUS FOR THOSE INVOLVED. NISSAN NEEDS TO DO THE RIGHT THING TO PROTECT THEIR CUSTOMERS, THE PUBLIC AND THEIR REPUTATION.

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ERROR CODE WAS B0020, WHICH IS THE DRIVERS SIDE, THEY RESET AT THE DEALER. IT CAME BACK ON A WEEK LATER AND I TOOK IT BACK. THEY TOLD ME THEY CHECKED THE WIRES AND IT ALL LOOKED FINE. THEY DON'T KNOW IF THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY IF IN AN ACCIDENT SO I NEED TO REPLACE IT AND IT WILL COST $1000. THEY ALSO SOLD ME THE CAR IN APRIL AND IN MAY THE LIGHT CAME ON. VERY ANNOYED BY THIS.

I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE 2YRS OLD AND AFTER 1YR OF OWNING IT, I NOTICED THE LIGHTS WERE STARTING TO GET LOWER, MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. EVENTUALLY I HAD TO START PERMANENTLY DRIVING WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO SEE SOME PART OF THE ROAD AT NIGHT. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TRYING TO DRIVE AND MAKING TURNS IN THE DARK WHERE THERE IS LITTLE TO NO STREET LIGHTING.AVAILABLE. THIS ISSUE HAS ALSO CAUSED A DETERIORATION IN MY EYESIGHT FROM CONTINUOUSLY STRAINING MY EYES AT NIGHT.

I OWN A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA, OVER THE TIME OF OWNERSHIP I HAVE NOTICED THE HEADLIGHTS GETTING DIMMER AND DIMMER, I ASSUMED IT WAS THE BULBS AGING AND REPLACED THIS ON 02/15/2020. THE NEW BULBS (SILVANIA SILVERSTARS) WERE SUPPOSED TO BE BRIGHTER. THERE WERE NOT MUCH BRIGHTER. LATER WHEN I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SUGGESTED NEW HEADLIGHT ASSEMBALLIES AS THE CHROME PAINTING ON THE INSIDES OF THE LENSES HAS FADED AND AS A RESULT IS NOT REFLECTING MUCH LIGHT ONTO THE ROAD. THE ESTIMATED COST OF THIS REPAIR WAS 800$. I HAVE NEVER OWNED A CAR WHERE THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE FAILED IN THIS MATTER AND AS A STUDENT IT IS UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS TO HAVE LOW BEAMS THAT ARE SO DIM THEY DO NOT EVEN APPEAR TO BE ON AT NIGHT. GOOGLING THIS ISSUES SHOWS MANY FORUMS WHERE PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE I WAS HAVING WITH NEW HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES FIXING THE ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT'S HUSBAND OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE HER HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AT 55 MPH, HE LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING. UPON INSPECTION, THE CONTACT'S HUSBAND BECAME AWARE THAT ONE OF THE REAR WHEELS WAS LOOSE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO TIGHTEN THE UNKNOWN REAR TIRE AND DROVE THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE REAR SWAY BAR LINK WAS FRACTURED. THE DRIVER GIVEN AN ESTIMATE FOR THE REPAIR. THE DEALER HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND A CASE WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 230,000.

DRIVING TO WORK LOST CONTROL OF REAR TIRE. TOOK IT IN TO GET LOOKED AT AND WAS INFORMED THE REAR LOWER LINK RUSTED ALL THE WAY THROUGH. I WAS INFORMED THERE WAS A SERVICE CAMPAIGN FOR 2013-2014 ALTIMA SEDAN ON THE REAR LOWER LINK. WHEN I CONTACTED NISSAN I WAS INFORMED IT WAS ONLY FOR THE 2013 ALTIMA. I EXPLAINED TO THEM CAMPAIGN ID# P9324 SAID FOR 2013-2014 ALTIMA AND MY CAR WAS A 2014 BUILT IN JULY 2013 AND HAS THE SAME REAR LOWER LINK PART NUMBER ON BOTH YEAR MODELS AND MINE HAD COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH AND SEPARATED. THEY DON'T CARE. NOW I CAN'T DRIVE THE CAR UNTIL I GET IT FIXED AT MY OWN EXPENSE.

HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. UNABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING WITH LOW-BEAMS ON. I PAID $250 TO REPLACE THE HEADLAMPS WITH NO LUCK. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE. THIS SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE SO I AM WONDERING WHY THERE IS NO RECALL?

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM TO BE SAFE. I'VE TAKEN THIS TO THE DEALER TWICE, AND EACH TIME BEEN TOLD TO TRY NEW BULBS. FOLLOWING THEIR ADVICE, BULBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE NOW, ONCE WITH HID, AND AGAIN WITH LED. BOTH OPTIONS GAVE VERY LITTLE TO NO INCREASE IN VISIBILITY. DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THE CAR AFTER DARK AS THE HEADLIGHTS ONLY PROVIDE LIGHT 10-15 FEET BEYOND THE FRONT BUMPER.

ON TUESDAY NIGHT JANUARY 14, 2020 I DO AS I ALWAYS DO THIS NIGHT AND DRIVE MY SON TO HIS HOCKEY PRACTICE FOR 6 PM IN NORTH SMITHFIELD RHODE ISLAND. WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY ROUTE 295 IN TRAVEL LANE PASSING AN 18 WHEELER TRUCK. WHEN WE WERE NEXT TO THIS TRUCK IT FELT LIKE A GUST OF WIND CAME OUT OF NO WHERE AND PUSHED MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA IN HIS LANE AND ALMOST HIT THIS TRUCK. I WENT TO CORRECT THE WHEEL TO MOVE AWAY FROM THIS AND THE CAR ALMOST WENT RIGHT OFF THE HIGHWAY IN A DITCH. I HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOING ON AND WAS ABLE TO KEEP THE CAR STRAIGHTENED OUT. MY SON, WHO IS 11 WAS SCARED TO DEATH. I NOTICED THAT THAT A LIGHT ON DASHBOARD CAME ON THAT LOOKS LIKE A TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT OR SLIPPERY ROAD LIGHT. WHERE THIS HAPPENED, THE PRACTICE WE GO TO WAS NEXT EXIT AND RIGHT OFF THE HIGHWAY. WE DECIDED TO HEAD THERE SINCE THERE WAS NO SAFE SPOT TO PULL OVER IN THIS LOCATION AT NIGHT. I PUT THE HAZARD LIGHT ON AND MANAGED TO GET THEIR SLOWLY SOMEHOW SO I COULD LOOK INTO WHAT THIS PROBLEM WAS. WE GOT TO PRACTICE. MY SON WENT IN AND I LOOKED AROUND AT WHAT THIS LIGHT WAS THAT CAME ON DASHBOARD. I COULD NOT FIND IT IN MANUAL ANYWHERE AND WAS THINKING THAT IT MAY HAVE BEEN A COMPUTER ISSUE. FROM THERE I CHECKED THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AND UNDER THE BEST I COULD AND DID NOT NOTICE ANYTHING AT THIS TIME SO I LEFT IT ALONE. WHEN IT WAS TIME TO LEAVE MY PLAN WAS JUST TO TAKE IT SLOW AND DRIVE HOME. WE MADE IT ABOUT 200 FEET OUT OF PARKING LOT AND HEARD A NASTY NOISE AND PULLED RIGHT OVER ON ROUTE 146 IN NORTH SMITHFIELD R.I. I LOOKED UNDER CAR WHERE I HEARD THE NOISE AND COULD SEE SOMETHING BROKEN. I TOOK AN PICTURE - CALLED MY MECHANIC RIGHT AWAY TO FIND OUT WHAT IT WAS..IT WAS A CONTROL ARM AND WERE EXTREMELY LUCKY WE WERE NOT INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR HURT IN ANYWAY, FOUND OUT THE OTHER CONTROL ARM WAS READY TO BREAK HTTPS://PHOTOS.APP.GOO.GL/IEGG5SVV4CSQNNVR6 I

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACTED STATED WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY WERE THE NOISE CAME FROM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MARLBORO NISSAN (740 BOSTON POST RD E, MARLBOROUGH, MA 01752 508-481-3232) AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER CONTROL ARM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

CAN NOT SEE AT NIGHT DUE TO VERY DIM HEADLIGHTS, HIGH BEAMS WORK FINE JUST NOT THE LOW BEAMS. HAVE REPLACED BULBS AND EVEN THE LOCAL DEALER CAN NOT FIGURE IT OUT. I CAN ONLY SEE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT ABOUT 20 FEET IN FRONT OF ME WHICH IS DANGEROUS ON DARK RURAL AND INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS.

WHILE DRIVING ON A STATE ROUTE I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD AND IMMEDIATELY FELT THE STEERING WHEEL SHIFT FROM EVEN TO THE LEFT ABOUT 45 DEGREES WITH A THUMPING SOUND . ALSO THE STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON. I TRIED TO STEER THE CAR PROPERLY BUT ENCOUNTERED A PULLING TO THE LEFT. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD INTO A LOT AND DISCOVERED THE REAR LEFT WHEEL AND SIDE (DRIVER SIDE} WAS LOWER THAN THE RIGHT AND THE WHEEL WAS TILTED INWARD. FURTHER INSPECTION REVEALED THAT THE CONNECTION TO THE SUSPENSION WAS COMPROMISED. WE HAD THE CAR TOWED ON FLATBED TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC. HE IS LOCATED NEAR THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP SO WE HOPE TO GET IT RESOLVED WITH HIS SELP. MY RESEARCH ON YOUR SITE INDICATED THAT SEVERAL (1000'S) OF 2013 VEHICLES EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM BUT NOT MANY 2014 MODELS. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS NOT JUST FOR THE 2013 MODELS AND THE 2014'S AGE IS ABOUT AT THE SAME TIME WHEN THE 2013'S HAVE FAILED. (6 YEARS OLD). I AM HOPING THAT NISSAN FOLLOWS SUIT WITH THE 2014 MODELS LIKE CANADA DID LAST YEAR.

BOTH LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS NO LONGER ADEQUATELY ILLUMINATE THE ROAD AT NIGHT, CREATING VERY UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. ILLUMINATION INTENSITY HAS GRADUALLY GOTTEN WORSE OVER TIME. USE OF HIGH BEAMS IS REQUIRED TO ADEQUATELY VIEW THE ROAD AT NIGHT, WHICH BLINDS ONCOMING DRIVERS, THUS CREATING UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS FOR THEM.

ACCELERATING FROM A STOP SIGN, ABOUT 10 FEET LATER THERE WAS NO POWER TO THE WHEELS. NEITHER REVERSE OR FORWARD GEARS WORKED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. ENGINE RUNS NORMALLY AND NO ABNORMAL NOISES. ENDED UP HAVING TO PUSH THE CAR TO THE NEAREST SAFE AREA AND WAITED FOR A TOW. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SUDDEN TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT JUST OVER 50,000 MILES THE SHOP HAS QUOTED ME $4000 TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION CITING THEY HAVE SEEN MANY FAILURES ON THE NISSAN CVT'S AND DO NOT RECOMMEND REPAIRING THEM.

MY LOW BEAMS HEADLIGHT ARE SO DIM THAT I CANNOT DRIVE SAFETY WITHOUT USE OF HIGH BEAMS LIGHT. OTHER DRIVER ARE NOT SAFE EITHER WHEN I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS, JUST IN ORDER FOR ME TO SEE AT NIGHT WHEN DRIVING. I REPLACED THE BULBS MORE THAN ONE TIME AND THERE IS STILL NO IMPROVEMENT.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA HAVE DETERIORATED TO A POINT WHERE THE LIGHT DOES NOT PROJECT OUT ONTO OTHER CARS ON THE ROADWAY AND TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICES CANNOT BE SEEN RESULTING IN COLLISION WITH CURB TYPE MEDIAN TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICE WHILE MOVING TO TURN DUE TO INADEQUATE ILLUMINATION OF ROADWAY SURFACES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNED TO THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT, THE HEADLAMP WOULD FAIL TO REMAIN ILLUMINATED. (PIAZZA NISSAN OF ARDMORE LOCATED AT 265 LANCASTER AVE, ARDMORE, PA 19003, (610) 649-4400), WAS CONTACTED AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE DIAGNOSED WHICH WAS STILL PENDING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,852.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY BAD AT NIGHT I HAVE CHANGED OUT WITH NEW ONES 5 TIMES. ALSO THE STEERING HAVE TO KEEP BEING CORRECTED WHEN DRIVING CAR WANTS TO GO INTO OTHER LANES I HAD 2 WHEEL ALIGNMENTS IN STILL NO HELP

CVT TRANSMISSION FAILING WITH ONLY 73,900 MILES ON THE 2014 VEHICLE. ALSO BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE DOOR MECHANISMS HAVE BROKE FROM THE INSIDE, MEANING YOU HAVE TO ROLL THE WINDOW DOWN TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD.

HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE DIM AND I HAVE HAD A PLETHORA OF NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCES BECAUSE OTHER CARS FLASH THEIR BRIGHT LIGHTS AT ME THINKING MY LIGHTS WERE NOT ON. I WAS EVEN FOLLOWED AND TOLD THAT MY LIGHTS WERE NOT ON AND HAD TO SHOW THE DRIVER THAT MY LIGHTS WERE ON.

LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY HARD TO SEE THE ROAD. VISIBILITY IS LOW AND DANGEROUS. THE LIGHTS WORKED FINE WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. ONCOMING CARS ARE FLASHING LIGHTS AT ME WHILE DRIVING THINKING I DO NOT HAVE MY LIGHTS TURNED ON. THIS PROBLEM COULD BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE IF ADDRESSED ASAP.

LOW BEAMS YOU CAN'T HARDLY SEE ANYTHING AT ALL AT NIGHT. VERY DANGEROUS

WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE TURNED ON TO DRIVE AT NIGHT, THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT IS NOT AS BRIGHT AS THE PASSENGER SIDE EVEN AFTER GETTING A NEW HEADLIGHT. THE LIGHT IS BRIGHT WHEN UP CLOSE BUT IS BARELY VISIBLE FAR AWAY. BASICALLY, YOU ARE DRIVING WITH ONE HEADLIGHT AT NIGHT MAKING IT VERY HARD TO SEE.

OVER TIME THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITHOUT HIGH BEAMS ON AT NIGHT THE ROAD CANNOT BE SEEN.

MY HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM I CANNOT SEE, I REPLACED THE BULBS AND THERE IS NO CHANGE, THE ISSUE IS IN THE HEADLIGHT COVERING, ITS DARKENING THE BULB. IT IS A HAZARD!

FACTORY LIGHT BEAMS WHERE DANGEROUSLY LOW. VISIBILITY WAS CLOSE TO NONE, OFTEN HAD TO DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS ON. I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS THE LIGHTBULB WHICH WAS REPLACED AND THIS DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. I HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE LIGHT COMPARTMENT IN ORDER TO FIX THE ISSUE. LOOKED UP ONLINE THAT MANY OTHER DRIVERS EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE DUE TO A THIN LAYER IN THE REFLECTOR COMPARTMENT THAT ONCE IT FADES, IT CAUSES THE LIGHT TO NOT REFLECT PROPERLY ONTO THE ROAD. THIS MANUFACTURER ERROR SHOULD BE LOOKED AT, AS THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD FOR DRIVERS.

I WENT TO TURN INTO A PARKING LOT, HEARD A LOUD THUMP FROM THE BACK OF THE CAR AND WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE REAR END MY SWAY BAR WAS BROKEN OFF ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. 2 MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING MY RIGHT SIDE BROKE WHILE I WAS BACKING UP.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT JUST CAME UP ON THE DASHBOARD AND WOULD COME OFF I JUST STARTED THE CAR AND IT'S BEEN ON EVER SINCE

STARTING IN APRIL 2019 ON MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SV. THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. THEY ARE EASILY OVERPOWERED BY THE TURN SIGNAL, AND HEADLIGHTS FROM OTHER VEHICLES CAST A "SHADOW" WHEN DRIVING BEHIND THIS VEHICLE. THIS PRESENTS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD ESPECIAL IN ANY WET WEATHER EVENT IT IS ALMOST LIKE HAVING NO LIGHTS ON AT ALL. IF THERE IS A MINIMUM LUMENS THAT NEED TO BE PROJECTED TO THE ROAD THIS DESIGN IS NOT DOING IT. THE BULBS WERE REPLACED WITH APPROPRIATE UNITS, NO CHANGE IN THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE LIGHTS. WHEN I CONTACTED NISSAN ABOUT THIS SAFETY DEFECT THEY PROVIDED NO SOLUTION. AND TOOK ZERO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE COMPANIES DESIGN FLAW.

AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON AND IT WON'T GO AWAY.

ABOUT A YEAR AGO I NOTICED I COULD NOT SEE WELL AT NIGHT. I TOOK MY CAR IN TO HAVE THE HEADLIGHTS REPLACED. I THOUGHT IT WAS MY DRIVER SIDE LOW BEAM. THEY REPLACED IT. ABOUT A WEEK LATER IT STILL WAS NOT ANY BETTER. TOOK IT BACK IN AND THEY SAID IT WAS FINE. I REPLACED THE BULB 2 MORE TIMES AND STILL WAS AWFUL. THEN I DISCOVERED THAT THIS ISSUE WAS COMMON IN 2014 ALTIMAS. I WAS TOLD I COULD FIX THE ISSUE BY REPLACING SOME PARTS. REPLACED MY PASSENGER SIDE, BUT WAS TOLD THAT BECAUSE OF ALL THE ISSUES THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE LOW BEAM HAD MELTED. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY. THIS WILL END UP COSTING $800, FOR HEADLIGHTS. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD I WAS LUCKY THAT MY CAR DID NOT CATCH ON FIRE. NISSAN NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND PROVIDE THE REPAIRS. ACCIDENTS COULD HAPPEN DUE TO THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE LIGHT PROJECTED FROM THE HEADLAMPS WERE INADEQUATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FIRST TEAM NISSAN OF NEW RIVER VALLEY LOCATED AT 2130 N FRANKLIN STREET, CHRISTIANSBURG, VA 24073, (540) 382-2903, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HEADLAMP BULBS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS THEN INFORMED THAT THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,383. *BF*JB

PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT INDICATOR & PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF INDICATOR REMAINS ON EVEN WHEN A PASSENGER IS SEATED IN THE FRONT SEAT. I THINK THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY FROM AN IMPACT AS NEEDED. REQUEST ANY ASSISTANCE WITH THIS RELATED SAFETY ISSUE. THANK YOU

HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH AND NOT VISIBLE DRIVING AT NITE. VERY DANGEROUS AND NOT SAFE FOR NITE DRIVING AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN FOR ALL 2013-2015 ATIMA MODELS.HAVE TO PURCHASE NEW HEADLIGHTS WHICH COST ME $300.00 FOR HEADLIGHT AND $300 TO INSTALL. I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THESE NISSAN ATIMA'S AND I SHOULD GET REIMBURSED.

MY 2014 ALTIMA'S LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM THAT IS NOT SECURE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. CHANGING THE BULBS DON'T FIX THE PROBLEM.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON BOTH SIDE BECOMES EXTREMELY DIM TO SEE THE ROAD AT NIGHT, WHICH BECOMES HAZARDOUS. WENT TO NISSAN DEALER WHO TOLD THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN ALTIMA AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN ORDERED. THEY WERE NOT SURE OF SOLUTION BUT TOLD THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY WOULD NEED TO BE CHANGED. SEVERAL TIMES GOT BEEPED FROM INCOMING CARS AS THE HEADLIGHTS WERE SO DIM AS IF HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT TURNED ON. I FIRST NOTICED THIS ISSUE IN JULY OF 2019 AND THIS ISSUE HAS BECOME MORE EVIDENT ONCE MY DAUGHTER STARTED TO PRACTICE DRIVING USING THIS CAR.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING THAT IS MORE THAN 100 FEET IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THIS CAN CAUSE AN INCIDENT ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY GOING FASTER SPEEDS AND NON ILLUMINATED AREAS WHERE YOU NEED TO SEE FURTHER AHEAD. THE HIGH BEAM LIGHTS ARE PERFECTLY FINE, BUT WHEN USING MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS, IT'S ALMOST LIKE THEY ARE NOT EVEN TURNED ON.

HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. REFLECTOR NO LONGER PROJECTS LIGHT. MANY COMPLAINTS ON MESSAGE BOARDS.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED THAT I HAD LOW VISIBILITY AND COULD NOT SEE AS FAR AS 1 FOOF AHEAD AND HAD TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS ALL THE WAY HOME. I ASSUMED THAT IT WAS MY BULBS OR BATTERY AND CHANGED THEM BOTH OUT. WHEN I CHANGED THEM, I NOTICED NO CHANGE AND ALMOST HIT A PARKED CAR AND FEEL THAT IT IS VERY DANGEROUS NOT ONLY FOR ME BUT OTHERS THAT HAVE THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL AND YEAR OF CAR AND FEEL THAT SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BECAUSE IT IS A SAFETY RISK.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE DETERIORATED TO THE POINT THE CAR CANNOT E DRIVEN AT NIGHT. THE BULBS WERE REPLACED TWICE WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. ADJUSTING THE BULBS ALSO DID NOT IMPROVE THE ILLUMINATION. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND THE CAR HAS BEEN PARKED FOR THE LAST FOUR WEEKS. IT'S OBVIOUSLY AN ENGINEERING FLAW THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT PAY FOR. YOU CAN'T VALUE ENGINEER SAFETY. I CONTACTED NISSAN TO SEE IF THEY WILL DO THE RIGHT THING AND REPLACE THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES. IN CLOSING THE TURN SIGNAL BULBS PRODUCE MORE LIGHT THAN THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS.

LIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM! I CAN'T SEE AT NIGHT WITHOUT USING HIGH BEAMS. I HAVE BOUGHT NEW BULBS (LED) WITHOUT A SOLUTION. DEALERSHIP SOLUTION IS TO PAY $1000+ TO GET NEW HEADLIGHTS. MANY OTHER ALTIMA OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE.

BOTH LOW BEAM, HEADLAMPS IN MY 2014 ALTIMA ARE EXTREMELY DIM. I FIRST NOTICED IT ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO AND HAS BECOME SIGNIFICANTLY WORSE OVER TIME. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS WITH OEM AND HIGH END (BRIGHTER) BULBS TO NO AVAIL. THE EXTERNAL ASSEMBLY PLASTIC IS NOT THAT FADED AND EVEN TRIED BUFFING IT. THAT DID NOT WORK EITHER. IT'S DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT UNLESS THE HIGH BEAMS ARE ON.

AS I WAS DRIVING MY 2014 ALTIMA, I ACCELERATED FROM A COMPLETE STOP AND LOST CONTROL OF MY CAR AND BEGAN SLIDING. AS SOON AS I STOPPED THE VEHICLE, I RESTARTED AND BEGAN TO MOVE FORWARD. WHILE ONLY GOING 15 MPH, THE CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE, I STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICE THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE WAS NOT ALIGNED CORRECTLY. AFTER BEING TOWED AND UPON FURTHER REVIEW, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT MY LOWER REAR CONTROL ARM HAD SNAPPED OFF FROM THE BOLT ON THE DRIVER SIDE. AFTER LOOKING INTO THIS, THE REAR PASSENGER CONTROL ARM WAS DETERMINED TO HAVE A SEVERE CRACK ON BOTH THE TOP AND BOTTOM SIDES.

MY HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM I HAVE REPLACED THEM BOTH WHICH HAS NOT HELPED AND KNOW THEY HAVE BOTH WENT OUT AND I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY HI BEAMS ON AT ALL TIMES. WHICH PRIOR TO THEM GOING OUT I DROVE WITH HI BEAMS JUST TO SEE. VERY IN SAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. I HAVE SPOKE WITH NISSAN REGARDING THIS AND THEY TELL ME THEY HAVE HAD NO COMPLAINTS REGARDING MY YEAR OR MODEL. BASICALLY THEY DON'T HAVE ANY CLUE WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

MAIN HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. THEY HAVE GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS AND NOW HELP ALMOST NOT AT ALL. IF I DID NOT HAVE FOG LIGHTS I WOULD HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON IN ORDER TO SEE AT NIGHT.

THE PROJECTORS IN THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES HAVE FAILED AFTER A COUPLE YEARS. THE LOW BEAMS ARE SO DIM THAT WE CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT TIME. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS WITH NUMEROUS DIFFERENT BULBS AND THE BULBS ARE NOT THE PROBLEM, IT IS THE PROJECTORS IN THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES. AS CAN BE FOUND ONLINE, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS HAPPENING A LOT WITH THE 5TH GENERATION ALTIMA. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED AS THIS IS VERY CLEARLY A SAFETY RELATED PROBLEM IF YOU CANNOT SEE AT NIGHT. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING AND DESIGN FLAW.

LOW BEAM PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM AND REPLACING LIGHT BULBS HAS NOT FIXED THE ISSUE. SOMETHING IS WRONG IN THE PROJECTOR LENS

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR ONE EVENING AND WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS AUTOMATICALLY CAME ON I NOTICED THEY WERE SIGNIFICANTLY DIMMER THEN NORMAL. I RODE ABOUT A WEEK OR SO WITH THE DIM HEADLIGHTS AND IT APPEARED THAT THEY WERE GRADUALLY GETTING DIMMER UNTIL ONE OF THE BULBS EVENTUALLY WENT OUT. I HAD BOTH BULBS REPLACED AND THE HEADLIGHTS REMAINED SEVERLY DIM. SO DIM THAT THERE IS NO LIGHT BEING EMITTED ONTO THE ROAD AND I HAVE TO USE HIGH BEAMS WHEN TRAVELING AFTER DARK.

STARTS CAR IN PARKING LOT AND DRIVES TO THE PARKING ATTENDANT BOOTH WITHOUT ISSUE PUTS CAR IN PARK TO PAY WHILE TRYING TO PAY, HEARS LOUD 'GRINDING' SOUND. ASKS ATTENDANT IF HE HEARS THE SOUND. ATTENDANT SAYS 'YES" ASKS ATTENDANT IF SHE'S POSSIBLY ON THE CURB OR STUCK ON SOMETHING. ATTENDANT SAYS 'NO" AND RAISES GATE. PRESSES BRAKE PEDAL AND MOVES THE TRANSMISSION SELECTOR TO DRIVE REMOVES FOOT FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE CAR LAUNCHES AGGRESSIVELY AND ACCELERATES UNCONTROLLABLY. CAR'S SPEED INCREASES. REPEATEDLY PRESSES BRAKES BUT FORWARD PROGRESS IS BARELY SLOWED. CONTINUES PRESSING BRAKES AS CAR STRIKES A SIGN, HOTEL LIGHTING, AND CRASHES INTO A TREE; STOPPING CAR'S FORWARD PROGRESS. ENGINE CONTINUES TO ACCELERATE; SPINNING FRONT TIRES INTO THE GROUND. RESPONDERS OPEN THE DRIVER'S DOOR AND EXTRACT DRIVER. WHEELS CONTINUE TO SPIN. WHEELS SPIN UNTIL ONE RESPONDER IS ABLE TO CUT OFF THE CAR

AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON WHEN CAR IS TURNED ON. MY DAUGHTER SAYS THE HOOD OF THE CAR IS VIBRATING WHEN DRIVING!

I PURCHASED A USED 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH 58,000 MILES. IT DROVE GREAT DURING TEST DRIVING AND ON MY WAY HOME WHICH IS 1 HOUR AWAY FROM WHERE I LIVE. BY DAY 2 THE CAR BEGAN JERKING AROUND 60 MI PER HR. AND UNDER. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP. BY DAY 4 ON THE WAY TO THE DEALERSHIP THE RPM WOULD JUMP UP TO 4 AND THE CAR MADE A WINDING NOISE. IT WOULD ADVANCE FORWARD QUICKLY AND THEN STALL. ALL OF THIS WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. I CAME TO A PLACE WHERE I COULD PULL OVER WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND THEN TRIED TO PULL OFF THE CAR WOULD NOT GO ANYWHERE. I FINALLY HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. NISSAN HAS YET TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, SAYING IT HAS AN "UNSPECIFIED CODE". IT'S BEEN 3 DAYS. I KNOW THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON THE CVT TRANSMISSION HOWEVER I DON'T SEE MY VEHICLE VIN ON THE LIST.

ABOUT THREE YEARS INTO OWNING MY BRAND NEW 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA I BEGAN TO REALIZE HOW INCREDIBLY DARK THE ROADS WERE BECOMING WHEN I WOULD DRIVE AT NIGHT IN FRONT OF ME. I THOUGHT AT FIRST I NEEDED NEW PRESCRIPTION GLASSES BUT WHEN I BEGIN NEEDING TO USE MY BRIGHTS FOR REGULAR NIGHTTIME DRIVING IN THE CITY I KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM. THEN, BOTH MY BROTHER AND FATHER ON SEPARATE OCCASIONS POINTED OUT HOW DANGEROUSLY DIM MY HEADLIGHTS WERE. AFTER THAT, I KNEW IT WAS NOT JUST MY EYES SEEING DARKLY. I BEGIN TO DO RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE AND FOUND OUT THE HEADLIGHT BARREL UNIT CORRODES AFTER JUST A FEW YEARS OF OWNERSHIP IN THE NISSAN 2013 TO 2015 MODELS. I HAVE TRIED CHANGING THE HEADLIGHTS AND FOUND THIS TO BE USELESS, PROVING THE POINT OF OTHER OWNERS. IT IS INCREDIBLY DISAPPOINTING THAT IT IS INCREDIBLY DISAPPOINTING THAT SUCH INTEGRAL SAFETY/VISION FACETS OF MY CAR ARE USELESS. I FEEL COMPLETELY UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND I HAVE NORMALLY VERY GREAT VISION. IF MY CAR CAN'T SHINE LIGHTS IN FRONT OF ME, THAT IS A HUGE CONCERN, AND THIS ISSUE WITHIN THE ALTIMA MODELS CAN GET SOMEONE KILLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE POWER DOOR LOCKS OPERATED INDEPENDENTLY BY UNLOCKING AND LOCKING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL OR DRIVING OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. AFTER THE FAILURE, THE DOOR OPENING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000.

THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT IS TOO DIM. THERE IS NO LIGHT COMING PUT OF THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. I THOUGHT IT WAS WEAK BULB AND HAD IT REPLACED BUT THE PROBLEM DIDNOT GO AWAY. WENT TO NISSAN DEALER WHO TOLD THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN ALTIMA AND NO RECALL HS BEEN ORDERED. THEY WERE NOT SURE OF SOLUTION BUT TOLD WHOLE CONSOLE CHNAGE MAY SOLVE THE ISSUE. RIGHT NOW I NEED TO PUT HIGH BEAMS ON AS ONLY DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT GIVES RIGHT AMOUNT OF LIGHT. THE PASSENGER LIGHT IS ON BUT NOTHING CAN BE SEEN. THE HEADLIGHT PANEL IS CLEAN AND CLEAR BUT NO LIGHT COMES OUT.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM, PROJECTING ONLY 2-3 FEET IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. REPLACING THE BULBS DOES NOT HELP. THE REFLECTIVE COATING ON THE PROJECTION LENS HAS WORN OFF CAUSING THE LIGHT BEAM TO NOT PROJECT WELL. THIS CREATES VERY POOR VISIBILITY AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD.

CAR WOULD NOT STOP AS I WAS TRYING STOP FROM HITTING A VEHICLE THAT STOPPED I'M FRONT OF ME, DUE TO BRAKES LOCKING UP AND I TRIED TO SWERVE TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT FROM OCCURRING THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AS WELL.*DT*JB

I WAS PULLING INTO MY PARKING SPOT WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. AS I REACHED THE PARKING SPOT, THE CAR ACCELERATED AND CRASHED INTO MY LIVING ROOM. MY FOOT NEVER TOUCHED THE GAS. THE ONLY WAY TO PARK IN SUCH A TIGHT SPOT IS TO HAVE YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THIS HAPPENED BUT WE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT.

FUEL PUMP STOP WORKING

I PARKED THE CAR WENT INTO A STORE LEFT THE CAR RUNNING. WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME, THE CVT TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF 1ST GEAR. I KNOW THERE ARE NO GEARS IN CVT BUT I COULD ONLY GO 20 MPH ON THE ROAD AND HIGHWAY, VERY DANGEROUS. I MADE IT HOME, AND THE NEXT MORNING, THE TRANSMISSION WAS OK.

VEHICLE HAS TERRIBLE VISIBILITY AT NIGHT WHEN IN MOTION. THE VEHICLE HAS AN INFERIOR HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY, CAUSING YOU TO DRIVE NEARLY BLIND AND TO ALMOST RELY ON THE NEXT VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU TO PROVIDE YOU A PATH. I INITIALLY THOUGHT IT WAS THE HEADLIGHT BULBS THAT WERE THE ISSUE. I HAD CHANGED THEM OUT AND IT ONLY IMPROVED VISIBILITY EVER SO SLIGHTLY. I WAS TOLD BY THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THAT IT IS DUE TO THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY FREQUENTLY GOING BAD. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT IS FAIRLY COMMON FOR THE REFLECTIVE PART OF THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY TO GO CLOUDY AND GO DIM. THEY TOLD ME THAT SINCE THIS WAS CONSIDERED STANDARD WEAR AND TEAR, THEREFORE NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. THEY RECOMMENDED ME TO REPLACE THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY FOR OVER A GRAND. I WAS EVEN RECOMMENDED TO BUY THEM AFTER MARKET TO SAVE, HOWEVER, THIS SHOULD NOT EVEN BE AN ISSUE! THIS ISSUE PRESENTED ITSELF AFTER OWNING IT FROM NEW FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT NISSAN IS REFUSING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS TYPE OF ISSUE WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLE THAT I HAVE OWNED. THIS IS A HAZARD AND CAN CERTAINLY CAUSE SAFETY HAZARDS FOR THE DRIVER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS APPLIED, BUT THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN AND STOPPED. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SAN LEANDRO NISSAN (1152 MARINA BLVD, SAN LEANDRO, CA 94577, (510) 826-1462) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 37771869. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,000. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AND THE BATTERY INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO BUCKEYE NISSAN (3820 PARKWAY LN, HILLIARD, OH 43026, (614) 771-2345) WHERE THE TORQUE CONVERTER AND TRANSMISSION WERE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THEY PERFORMED UPDATES TO THE NEW TRANSMISSION AND ASSURED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURE WOULD NOT RECUR. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 84,300.

I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 70MPH ON A BUSY INTERSTATE WHEN I HEARD A LOUD SOUND, SIMILAR TO A SHOTGUN BLAST. I THEN IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO HEAR GLASS SHATTERING. IT WAS THEN THAT I REALIZED MY SUNROOF WAS LITERALLY SHATTERING INTO MILLIONS OF PIECES.

REGULAR (LOW BEAM) HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM, DESPITE ME CLEANING THE EXTERIOR OF THE HEADLIGHTS AND REPLACING THE BULBS. YESTERDAY IN NORTH RALEIGH, NC, I RAN OVER A LOW CONCRETE DIVIDER SEPARATING THE MAIN TRAFFIC LANES AND A TURN LANE, BECAUSE I COULDN'T SEE IT AT ALL. THE DIMNESS SEEMS TO BE PARTICULARLY BAD FOR PERIPHERAL LIGHTING (WHICH MAKES SENSE GIVING MY EXAMPLE ABOVE, CHANGING FROM ONE LANE TO ANOTHER, AND NOT SEEING THE CONCRETE DIVIDER AT ALL). FROM RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ONLINE, THIS PROBLEM SEEMS VERY COMMON AMONG 2013-2015 ALTIMA OWNERS - APPARENTLY THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY'S PROJECTION SYSTEM DEGRADES OR WEARS OUT.

THE REAR ARM RODS RUSTED OUT AND SNAPPED OFF WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY ROAD

THE VEHICLE STALLS WHEN PULLING FROM A STOP SIGN OR STOPLIGHT. THE VEHICLE RESTARTS WITHOUT ISSUE THEN WILL STALL AGAIN WHEN ENGAGING INTO GEAR. THIS HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEED ALSO WITH THE CAR TURNING COMPLETELY OFF. AFTER EXITING THE HIGHWAY, THE CAR RESTARTED WITHOUT ISSUE AND WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE OFF THE ROAD. AT A STOPLIGHT, IT STALLED AGAIN IN THE INTERSECTION. RESEARCH ONLINE SHOWS MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON THIS VEHICLE SIMILAR TO MY COMPLAINT. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I DON'T THINK I WILL DRIVE IT AGAIN.

I HAVE A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. ONE MORNING AFTER HAVING DROVE ABOUT 15 MILES ON THE CITY STREET, TURNING MY CAR OFF AND THEN ON AGAIN AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES, MY CAR STARTED SHUTTING OFF WHEN PUT IN DRIVE. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED. MY MECHANIC CALLED NISSAN AND GAVE THEM THE FAILURE CODE. HE WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE TORQUE CONVERTER. IT WAS LOCKED AND SO THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I'VE BEEN READING UP ON THIS AND OTHER COMPLAINTS. NISSAN ISSUED A RECALL ON THE CVT REPROGRAMMING, BUT I THINK THEY KNOW THAT THERE IS MORE WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSIONS THEY INSTALLED THESE CARS THAN THAT. REPROGRAMMING THE CVT IS SIMPLE FOR THEM, IT'S JUST A SOFTWARE UPGRADE. NOW I'M FINDING OUT THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER IS FAILING (LOCKING UP) ON THOUSANDS OF CARS. I FEEL NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THESE REPAIRS.

THE ECM MAHESH THE ENGINE LIGHT GO OFF EVERY MONTH!!

JERKS WHEN TURNING ON WON'T TURN ON INCONSISTENT BATTERY AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL FEEL JERKY AND HAS JERKED FORWARD AT STOP LIGHT WHEN MY FOOT WAS ON BRAKE PEDAL HAS JERKED IN REVERSE WHILE IN DRIVE AND VICE VERSA AMONGST OTHER CONCERNS. VERY INCONSISTENT WITH THIS VERY UNPREDICTABLE HAVE ALREADY GOTTEN SERVICED 2 TIMES UNDER WARRANTY AND PURCHASED FROM CERTIFIED PREOWNED NISSAN DEALERSHIP ETC DOCS CAN BE PROVIDED UPON REQUEST

BOUGHT A USED 2014 ALTIMA FROM HENDRICK CHEVY IN MERRIAM KANSAS. TRANSMISSION FAILED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND DID NOT GIVE ANY INDICATION VIA CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR FAILURE CODES. ACCELERATION WAS SEVERELY DELAYED FROM A STOP NEARLY CAUSING ME TO WRECK WHEN THROTTLE REAPONSE AND ACCELERATION WAS NEAR ZERO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE'S RPMS SURGED WITHOUT WARNING. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO NALLEY NISSAN OF ATLANTA (2551 THE NALLEY WAY, ATLANTA, GA 30360, (678) 825-6749) WHERE THE FAILURES WERE LINKED TO SERVICE BULLETIN NUMBER: NTV15-102 AND RELATED TO THE CVT; HOWEVER, THE DEALER HAD YET TO DETERMINE IF THE DEFECTS WERE RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION OR THE ENGINE VALVE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. * BF*JB

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS BECAME EXTREMELY DIM OVER TIME. MY ALTIMA CURRENTLY REGISTERS 135,000 MILES. I DID NOT NOTICE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE I DRIVE THE VEHICLE DAILY. HOWEVER MY WIFE, WHO DOES NOT DRIVE IT REGULARLY, HAS MENTIONED THE DIMNESS TO ME ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. INITIALLY I BELIEVED THE PROBLEM RESTED WITH THE BULBS; HOWEVER, REPLACING THOSE DID NOT IMPROVE LIGHT BRIGHTNESS. AFTER AN ONLINE SEARCH, IT APPEARS THAT THE PROBLEM MAY BE DUE TO HEAT INDUCED CLOUDING OF THE PROJECTOR LENS. NEITHER HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN COMPROMISED. I BELIEVE THAT SUCH EQUIPMENT IS DURABLE IN NATURE AND THAT, UNLESS DAMAGED, SHOULD LAST THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. FINALLY, I'VE NOTICED THAT TH PROBLEM IS SO SEVERE THAT LOW BEAM LIGHT FROM VEHICLES BEHIND ME CAST MORE LIGHT THAN MY OWN LOW BEAMS. INDEED I CAN EASILY SEE THE SHADOW OF MY VEHICLE WHICH IS CASTED FROM THE LOW BEAMS OF THE VEHICLES BEHIND ME. THIS IS A SEVERE SAFETY PROBLEM FOR ME, OTHER DRIVERS, PEDESTRIANS, ETC. IT DESERVES THE IMMEDIATE ATTENTION OF THE NHTSA. THIS PROBLEM IS AN ISSUE AT NIGHT TIME, PARTICULARLY WHEN IN MOTION SINCE REACTION TIME MAY BE INSUFFICIENT TO AVERT AND ACCIDENT OR INCIDENT

HOOD LATCH IS HARD LOCK. AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON.

I HAVE 2 OF THESE MODEL ALTIMA'S. BOTH SUFFER FROM THE SAME PROBLEM THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND IT'S HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT. VERY UNSAFE

HEADLIGHT ARE VERY DIM AT NIGHT . WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING AT NIGHT YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING WITH THE LOW BEAM LIGHT YOU WILL HAVE TO TURN ON THE HIGH BEAM LIGHT . I CONTACTED NISSAN THEY INFORM ME THAT THIS ISSUE WOULD BE INVESTIGATED HOWEVER THEY STILL HAVEN'T CONTACTED ME BACK . I CHANGED THE HEADLIGHT MULTIPLE TIME , ALSO I HAD THE HEADLIGHT RESTORATION . HOWEVER THAT SILL HAVEN'T RESOLVED THE ISSUE . I AM AT THE CONCLUSION THAT A ACCIDENT WILL TAKE PLACE DUE TO THE HEADLIGHT BEEN VERY THIN YOU CANNOT SEE WHAT IS IN FRONT OF YOU ONCE YOU ARE DRIVING THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS IN WILL TAKE SOMEONE LIFE.

THE LOW BEAMS ARE NON-EXISTENT AND I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON AND GET FLASHED BY ANGRY ONCOMING DRIVERS ALL THE TIME. THIS ADDS TO MY VISIBILITY HAZARDS AT NIGHT. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I HAVE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.

MY VEHICLE STALLED WHILE I WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART MY VEHICLE AND MOVE IT . IT WOULD START BUT WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT FROM PARK IT WOULD STALL AGAIN. I HAD TO GET THE VEHICLE TOWED WHEN TAKEN TO THE SHOP NOTHING APPEARED WHEN SCANNED AND DAYS LATER THE CAR BEGAN TO MOVE AGAIN

LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS VERY DIM HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT VERY DANGEROUS IN FOG HARD TO SEE DEER ANIMALS PEOPLE TRY TO RUN WITH HIGH BEAMS ON BUT THEN PUTTING OTHER DRIVERS AT RISK

THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY NEEDS RECALLED ASAP! I NOTICED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS APPEARED MUCH DIMMER SO I REPLACED THE BULBS TWICE BUT IT ISN'T A PROBLEM WITH THE BULB. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU GET BETTER BULBS, THE HEADLIGHT PROJECTOR WILL NOT PROJECT LIGHT FORCING YOU TO DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON. IT IS DANGEROUS! MY SON WAS PULLED OVER DRIVING MY CAR ONE NIGHT BECAUSE THE OFFICER SAID IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE HE HAD HEADLIGHTS AND ADVISED HIM TO DRIVE WITH THE BRIGHT HIGH BEAM LIGHTS ON. I'VE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND IT SEEMS THAT LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE BUT NISSAN IS DOING NOTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM! I'VE ALWAYS BOUGHT NISSANS BUT ALL THE ISSUES I HAVE HAD WITH THIS CAR, I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER ONE! THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT I HAVE DEALT WITH NOW FOR TWO YEARS AND SINCE NISSAN WON'T ISSUE A RECALL, I'M FORCED TO PURCHASE NEW HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY'S FOR THE CAR.

THE SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE COMPLAINT, PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT DOES NOT GO OFF AFTER 7 SECONDS WHEN CAR STARTED SUPPOSEDLY NO RECALL !!!! SAFETY HAZARD.

THE CAR STALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPEN ON MORE THAT 4 TIMES BEFORE IT COMPLETELY STOPPED DRIVING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP, WHERE IS WAS DIAGNOSED TO FOR TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 81K MILES ON IT. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE.

RANDOMLY THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE EVEN AFTER PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. EVENTUALLY IT WILL SLOWLY START TO ROLL AND GET GOING AGAIN. IT HAS BEEN TAKEN TO A MECHANIC SHOP SEVERAL TIMES AND NO ISSUES HAVE BEEN FOUND. THIS HAPPENS AFTER COMING TO A STOP, AND TRYING TO ACCELERATE AGAIN. HASN'T MADE A DIFFERENCE WHETHER ON FLAT GROUND OR A HILL. THE VEHICLE WILL GO WEEKS WITHOUT AN ISSUE, AND THEN RANDOMLY START/STOP AGAIN. SOME WEEKS IT HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY. SOME TIMES IT STARTS TO ACT THIS WAY UPON START UP AND OTHER TIMES I COULD BE TRAVELING FOR A LITTLE WHILE, STOP AT A LIGHT, AND TRY TO TAKE OFF AND NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL TIMES I HAVE TRIED TO ACCELERATE ON A RIGHT HAND TURN AFTER STOPPING AND THE VEHICLE WON'T ACCELERATE. THIS HAS LEAD TO US ALMOST GETTING PLOWED INTO. THIS IS A CONTINUOUS ISSUE WITH NO SOLUTION, AS TO NO MECHANIC HAS BEEN ABLE TO SEE ANY ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE.

THE LOW BEAMS ARE NOT FULLY ILLUMINATING WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE LIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. SO DIM, YOU ARE UNABLE TO SEE THE ROAD.

SIR/MADAM, I FILED A COMPLAINT ALREADY FILE #11243824. BACK IN AUGUST. NISSAN CALLED ME BUT NO ACTION TAKEN. I CAN NOT SEE AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE LENSES ARE DEFECTIVE. I CHANGE THE LIGHT BULB 3 TIMES. IT IS NOT THE LIGHT BULB IT'S THE MIRROR SURROUNDING IT. THERE ARE 48 SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE LIGHT IS DIM IN THE SAME EXACT CAR.

TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN SHUTTERING DURING DRIVING AND IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH NISSAN AND THEY DO NOT WANT TO COVER THE COST OF WHAT THEY CAUSED

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROJECT LIGHT ONTO THE ROAD MAKING A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD FOR DRIVERS. THE MIRROR REFLECTORS INSIDE THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY ARE BURNED AND CORRODED MAKING THE LOW BEAM LIGHT INEFFECTIVE. FROM THE DRIVER SEAT YOU CANNOT SEE ANY LIGHT ON THE ROADWAY, AND HAVE TO USE THE HIGH BEAM LIGHTS JUST TO SEE WHAT IS IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. IT IS REALLY EVIDENT ON ROADWAYS WITH NO STREET LIGHTS AS IT FEELS LIKE DRIVING WITH THE LIGHTS OFF ON THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TRIED NEW BULBS, HIGHER INTENSITY BULBS, AND LEDS WITH NO SUCCESS. MY ONLY OPTION IS TO REPLACE THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AT A SUBSTANTIAL EXPENSE ON A VEHICLE WHICH IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD.

THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE SO LOW THAT I HAVE HAD 2 NEAR ACCIDENTS. IT IS UNSAFE IN AREAS WHERE THERE IS NO LIGHTING. I WANTED THIS TO BE ON RECORD IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS. MY RESEARCH INDICATES THAT THIS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM THAT THE NHTSA IS IGNORING. MY HUSBAND AND MY SON DRIVE THE VEHICLES AT NIGHT AND I AM VERY AFRAID FOR THEM. THE COST TO REPLACE THE PART IS OVER $1000 WHICH IS UNFAIR SINCE THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE PRODUCT. WHY WAIT UNTIL SOME HAS A FATAL CRASH OR WORSE BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE?

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2014 ALTIMA ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. AT NIGHT THEY PROVIDE EFFECTIVELY NO LIGHTING. TO SEE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, I MUST USE MY BRIGHTS WHICH THEN MAKES ME A SAFETY HAZARD TO THE VISIBILITY OF OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. I HAVE REPLACED THE LIGHT BULBS AND ALSO UPGRADED TO LED BULBS WITH LITTLE TO NO IMPROVEMENT. THIS ISSUE IS RELEVANT ON CITY STREETS, HIGHWAYS, OR COUNTRY ROADS, FROM DUSK UNTIL DAWN. WHILE DRIVING IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS IT IS EXTREMELY HARD TO SEE PEDESTRIANS AND EXTRA CAUTION IS REQUIRED AS A DRIVER TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF PEOPLE AROUND ME AS WELL AS MYSELF.

TAKATA RECALL MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA STARTED LOSING POWER AND STALLING WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAYS BACK IN MAY 2019 WITH NO INDICATION WHY AS THERE WAS NO 'CHECK ENGINE LIGHT' AND IT WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER AND WHATEVER THEY TOLD ME TO REPAIR I DID. IT CONTINUED SPORADICALLY STALLING (LOSING POWER DOWN TO UNDER 30MPH)IN JUNE, JULY,AUGUST & NOW SEPTEMBER-DURING THIS TIME WE HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY, CHANGE THE FILTERS, FINALLY TUNING UP THE CAR LAST WEEK WEDNESDAY! DIDN'T DRIVE IT THURSDAY-MONDAY NOW THIS MORNING TUESDAY IT STALLED AND START LOSING POWER AGAIN! STILL NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND NOW AFTER TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALER THIS MORNING I WAS JUST CALLED BY CONICELLI SERVICE REP TELLING ME THE TRANSMISSION IS GONE!!! AT 125000 - 5YRS OLD ! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE BECAUSE THIS IS OUR 8TH NISSAN AND ALL THE PREVIOUS ONES LAST UP TO 27700 MILES AND NEVER REPLACED A TRANSMISSION!! THIS IS DEFINITELY A LEMON AND NISSAN USA NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING! REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION OR BUY IT BACK!!

TAKARA RECALL - THE LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS IN MY ALTIMA ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM, AND I WAS TOLD IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MY BULBS. I WAS TOLD BY NISSAN IT'S A WIRING ISSUE BUT ONLINE IT STATES "THE MATERIAL INSIDE THE PROJECTOR BOWL WEAR DOWN, BURN OFF, OR SCUFF UP, THE PROJECTOR LENS DOESN'T RECEIVE AS MUCH LIGHT TO, WELL PROJECT".

WHILE DRIVING MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA MY TRUCK OPENED AND AS I PROCEEDED TO SHUT MY TRUNK IT WOULD NOT SHUT. I NOTICED THAT THE TRUNK LATCH WAS STUCK I TRUED TO USE A SCREW DRIVER STILL NO SUCCESS THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED.

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

MY HEADLIGHT ARE SO DIM THAT IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. MY MECHANIC CHANGED THE BULB AND CLEANED UP PROJECTION, STILL BLIND. HELP!!!

FIRST, THE CVT BLEW ON A 70MPH HIGHWAY. GOT THAT FIXED, NISSAN NORTH AMERICA AND MENTOR NISSAN HELPED. NNA PAID 70% OF A TRANSMISSION. THEY ARE ALSO REIMBURSING ME FOR TOWING. THEN, I HAVE VIDEO PROOF, THAT AFTER THE RECALL, THE OCS LIGHT IS ON WHILE I HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE CAR. LASTLY, REAR SUSPENSION ARM RUSTING OUT (PHOTO PROOF). THIS CAR IS NO LONGER SAFE TO DRIVE! THE WHOLE CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED!

STEERING WHEEL VIBRATION IT'S GETTING WORSE EVERY DAY PLUS WHEN I TURN THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT IT DOES MAKE A GRINDING SOUND

I PUCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 7/2016 USED WITH 47,000 MILES. NEVER RAN GREAT. NEEDED NEW CVT TRANSMISSION AT 63000. MILES. WAS REPAIRED .. NOW 99,347. MILES FAILURE OF CVT TRASMISSION AGAIN. CAR ONLY 5 YEARS OLD. DEALER SAYS NOT THEIR PROBLEM VEHICLE STOPPED AT A LIGHT. WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN STEPPED ON PEDAL. CARS DRIVING TOWARD ME IN ANTICIPATION OF ME MOVING PUT ME IN GRAVE AND DIRE HARMS WAY

TAKATA RECALL: THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR IN MY 2014 ALTIMA HAS SOMEHOW BROKEN FROM THE INSIDE-OUT. I WOULD ESTIMATE THAT IT BEGAN MALFUNCTIONING OVER THE LAST YEAR. IT WILL NOT STAY CLIPPED INTO PLACE AND IT SEEMS THE CLIP OR SOME PIECE INSIDE OF THE VISOR AFFECTS THE ABILITY FOR THE VISOR TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE VISOR BEING BROKEN IS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE IT PROHIBITS MY VIEW AS THE DRIVER AND THE VISOR SWINGS INTO MY VIEW WHEN TURNING. WHEN THE VISOR IS LOCKED IN PLACE, I HAVE TO CROUCH DOWN TO SEE UNDER IT. IT SEEMS TO BE A HAZARD AND CONCERN FOR MANY OTHER NISSAN OWNERS. THE REAL ISSUE OF SAFETY AND THE HAZARD IS THAT THE VISOR WASN'T BROKEN DUE TO POOR USE, IT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN DEFECTIVE FROM ITS INCEPTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT BOTH LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS PROVIDED VERY DIM ILLUMINATION. THE CONTACT COULD ONLY SEE APPROXIMATELY A FOOT AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN OF GADSDEN (1701 RAINBOW DR, GADSDEN, AL 35901) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. *BF CONSUMER STATED LOW DIM HEADLAMPS REPLACED FOR $940.10 AT THE DEALERSHIP. I BELIEVE THIS A MANUFACTURING FAILURE.*JB

AFTER DRIVING FOR A LITTLE WHILE THERE WOULD BE NO WARNING NO LIGHTS COME ON AND I WOULD COME TO A STOP AT A LIGHT, STOP SIGHT, OR TRAFFIC AND THEN WHEN I GO TO ACCELERATE AGAIN IT WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING FOR ABOUT 5-10SECONDS THEN WOULD EVENTUALLY TAKE OFF AT A HIGH RATE THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND THERE IS NO STOPPING IT IF A CAR IS COMING FROM ANOTHER DIRECTION IT COULD EASILY END UP IN A VERY BAD ACCIDENT AND THERE IS NO STOPPING IT

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS OVER TIME ARE EXTREMELY DIM. ILLUMINATION IS NOT ADEQUATE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THIS IS REPORTEDLY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN THE PROJECTOR NOT THE BULB DIMMING OR BURNING OUT. VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THE INTERNET IS FILLED WITH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS SO MY VEHICLE IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT.

THE LOW-BEAM HEAD LIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. I HAD THE BULBS REPLACED AND CLEANED THE FOG FROM THE CLEAR COVER, BUT THE LIGHTS ARE STILL DANGEROUSLY DIM. THIS APPARENTLY IS BECAUSE THE REFLECTIVE MATERIAL IN THE LIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS DETERIORATED.

BACKING INTO GARAGE ON MONDAY AUGUST 19 2019, HEARD A CRUNCH SOUND, PASSENGER SIDE REAR CONTROL ARM BROKE AFTER HEAVY RUST AND CORROSION. DEALER (WALSER NISSAN BURNSVILLE MN) REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY BUT REFUSED TO REPLACE LEFT SIDE BEING AS IT WASN'T BROKEN YET, KNOWING FULL WELL OF THE OPEN INVESTIGATIONS AND EVEN SENT A MEMO FROM NISSAN CORPORATE REGARDING REPLACEMENTS THIS FALL, IF YOU'RE LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE ON THE LIST.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE WAY TOO DIM WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT.

CVT TRANSMISSION SHUTTERS, SLIPS AND SHUTS DOWN THE ENGINE WHEN STOPPING. DIAGNOSTIC WAS PERFORMED AT DEALERSHIP AND RESULTED IN BAD TRANSMISSION. ALSO PASSENGER AIRBAG DEACTIVATES INTERMITTENTLY EVEN WHILE SOMEONE IS SITTING

AIRBAG LIGHT FOR PASSAGES SEAT BELT IS ON. I HAD ONE OF THEM REPAIRED BEFORE. WHAT DO I DO NOW?

WHILE ON A 70MPH HIGHWAY, MY VEHICLE STARTED SPUTTERING AND WOULD NOT RETAIN SPEED. I KEPT MY FOOT ON THE GAS, AND IT WAS LOSING SPEED AT AN ALARMING RATE. I WAS NOW GOING 35 ON A 70MPH ROAD. I PULLED TO THE BERM, WITH MY HAZARDS ON, AND TRIED TO REGAIN NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS. FOUND A SAFE SPOT TO PARK, HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED (USAA INSURANCE) TO A MECHANIC. MECHANIC COULD NOT REGISTER CODE, HE TOWED IT TO ANOTHER MECHANIC. CVT TRANSMISSION WENT. KNOWN PROBLEM WITH ALTIMA'S. NISSAN KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO MY HOME STATE ($500, NO RECEIPT, AS IT IS NOT HERE YET). NEED TO TAKE IT TO AN AUTHORIZED NISSAN DEALER AND PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET(37-3900, NO RECEIPT, CAN NOT AFFORD IT). HAD TO RENT A CAR TO GET HOME ($300, MY SISTER RENTED IT). I HAD CHILDREN IN THE CAR, READY FOR VACATION, AND THEY WERE SCARED WE WERE GOING TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THE CVT TRANSMISSION ISSUES. SO FAR, I AM OUT OF POCKET 571.62, NOT TO MENTION THE ALMOST 4 THOUSAND DOLLARS I AM FACING.

I HAVE CHANGED THE LIGHT BULBS 3 TIMES . THEY ARE SO DIM I AVOIDED ACCIDENTS . I DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAM AND IT IS NOT FAIR FOR THE OTHER DRIVERS. UNIVERSAL NISSAN IN ORLANDO IN ZIP CODE TOLD ME IT IS NORMAL.MY PERSONAL MECHANIC TOLD ME IT IS NOT THE BULB BUT THE MIRROE SURROUNDING THE BULB THAT IS FADED.A FEW PEOPLE I KNOW HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEM.

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA HAS VERY DIM HEADLIGHTS MAKING IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT OR IN BAD WEATHER. DRIVING WITH THE BRIGHTS ON LOOKS MORE LIKE WHAT THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS SHOULD LOOK LIKE. I ALTER WHEN I DRIVE BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE.

WHEN COMING TO A STOP SIGN OR A RED LIGHT THE CAR SHUTS DOW. AND THE CAR BUCKS WHEN YOU TRY TO START IT AGAIN. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS IT MAY OT MAY NOT START AGAIN. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THE LIGHT HOUSING AND NOT THE BULB. THE REFLECTIVE MATERIAL IN THE LIGHT HOUSING IS BREAKING DOWN AND NOT REFLECTING THE LIGHT ANY LONGER. HARD TO SEE WITHOUT USING HIGH BEAMS.

MY HEADLIGHTS ON MY '14 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE VERY DIM, TO THE POINT THAT I AVOID DRIVING AT NIGHT OR IN THE RAIN BECAUSE I CANNOT SEE MORE THAN 5-10 FEET IN FRONT OF ME. I LIVE OFF OF A DARK ROAD WITH LIMITED LIGHTING, AND IS ALWAYS FEARFUL OF HITTING SOMETHING/ SOMEONE OR RUNNING OFF THE ROAD SO I'M FREQUENTLY DRIVING WITH MY BRIGHT LIGHTS ON JUST TO MAKE IT HOME SAFELY. THIS PROGRESSING DIMMING WORRIES ME BECAUSE I DRIVE OFTEN FOR WORK IN OCCASIONAL HIGH CONSTRUCTION AND NEWLY DEVELOPED AREAS WHERE EQUIPMENT MAY BE LEFT OUT IN POORLY LIT AREAS, LIKE CONES OR MACHINERY, THAT ARE DIFFICULT FOR ME TO SPOT FROM A SAFE DISTANCE. IF REFLECTORS ARE NOT PRESENT IN THE ROAD OR HIGHWAY, I HAVE DIFFICULTIES STAYING WITHIN MY LANE BECAUSE OF THE DIMMING HEADLIGHTS, RESULTING IN PLACING OTHER DRIVERS AND MYSELF IN DANGER. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP, WHICH I WAS EXPLAINED THAT IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE LIGHT BULB ITSELF, BUT A DEFECTIVE OR WORN PROJECTOR LENS WHICH WILL COST APPROXIMATELY $1000 TO REPLACE.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 ALTIMA HAVE BECOME REALLY DIM TO SEE AT NIGHT. THE MECHANIC CHANGED THE LIGHT BULBS BUT THIS DID FIX THE PROBLEM. HE SAID THE PROJECTOR (LENS) MATERIAL INSIDE THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY IS CORRODED AND THAT THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM SINCE IT AFFECTS VISIBILITY AT NIGHT, AND NISSAN SHOULD PROVIDE A REMEDY FOR THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT AND THEN TURNED ON AGAIN, BUT WERE VERY DIM. THE FAILURE WAS A HAZARD BECAUSE THE CONTACT COULD NOT SEE THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT BULBS, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

AIR BAG LIGT CAME ON DEALER SAY.S 2,000 TO FIX AND NOT COVERED

ALTIMA AIRBAG RECALL MY ALTIMA IS UNDER THE YEAR THAT THE AIRBAGS WERE RECALLED, BUT MY SPECIFIC ALTIMA IS NOT RECALLED BUT IS SHOWING ALL THE SIGNS THAT THE RECALL STATES.

CAR IN MOTION AT THE TIME WHEN IT STARTED JERKING, CAR WAS IN REVERSE TO GET OUT OF PARKING SPOT. STEPPED ON GAS PETAL CONTINUED ON THE ROAD, STARTED JERKING WORSE AS THE CAR TURNED ONTO EXIT. CAR PULLED OVER AND STOPPED.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM AND NEW BULBS WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I REACHED OUT TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER, THEY INFORMED ME TO CONTACT NISSAN. CONTACTED NISSAN AND THEY HAD NO SOLUTION FOR THE PROBLEM. I CAN NOT DRIVE THE CAR AT NIGHT. THIS PROBLEM STARTED WITHIN THE LAST 12 MONTHS. ASKED ABOUT HAVING CAR REPAIRED AND NISSAN REPAIR QUOTED OVER $1000.00 AND NO GUARANTEE THAT IT WOULD NOT HAPPEN AGAIN.

TRANSMISSION WILL GO BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN DYING AND REVIVING UP. SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, BUT NO RECALLS. PER NISSAN NOW, THE TRANSMISSION IS DEAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM. ITS A SAFETY ISSUE AT NIGHT.

HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY OF THE VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY DIM. HIGH BEAM WORKS EXCEPTIONALLY BUT LOW BEAM SEEMS TO BE BURNED OUT. LIGHT BULBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES BUT THERE IS NO CHANGE IS VISIBILITY. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO AUTONATION NISSAN WHERE THEY CONCLUDED NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE HEADLAMPS. HEADLAMPS HAVE EVEN BEEN ADJUSTED IN THE DIRECTION THAT PROJECT, BUT STILL NO CHANGE IN VISIBILITY. HEADLAMP VISIBILITY BECAME DRASTICALLY DECREASED WHILE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY

ACCELERATION ISSUES. SPORADICALLY THE CAR WILL DO NOTHING WHEN WE STEP ON THE ACCELERATOR. IT IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY AND WE ESSENTIALLY HAVE ZERO POWER TO MOVE. AFTER HOLDING THE ACCELERATOR DOWN FOR A NUMBER OF SECONDS THE CAR WILL THEN ABNORMALLY START TO ACCELERATE AND REV UP ON RPMS BUT WILL NOT ACCELERATE AS NORMAL. IT'S AS IF THE TRANSMISSION IS THOROUGHLY CONFUSED. I CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE CAR AND IT COULD NEVER GET OVER 60 MPH REGARDLESS OF HOW FAR I STEPPED ON THE ACCELERATOR. I HAVE VIDEO OF THE BEHAVIOR. THE ISSUE CONTINUES AT RANDOM TIMES AND WE FEEL INCREDIBLY UNSAFE WHEN WE ARE IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE THE CAR WILL IDLE FORWARD BUT DO NOTHING EVEN WHEN ACCERATOR IS DEPRESSED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WITH VIDEO OF THE VEHICLES CRAZY BEHAVIOR; THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT THE COMPUTER SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT. THEY TELL ME TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE UNTIL IT GETS WORSE. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE BECAUSE WE ARE AT RISK OF AN ACCIDENT WHEN YOU TRY TO ACCELERATE BUT THE CAR DOES NOTHING BUT IDLE FORWARD; IT CATCHES US OFF GUARD AND WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT IDLING INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC WHEN MAKING TURNS. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN WHO SAID THEY HAVE NO INTEREST IN WATCHING THE VIDEO AND THAT THE COMPUTER INDICATES NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. WE ARE INCREDIBLY WORRIED ABOUT DRIVING THIS CAR AND FEEL NISSAN IS COVERING UP AN ISSUE. IT WAS ADMITTED TO ME BY THE DEALER THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MANY OF THEIR CVTS; IT IS EVIDENT IN CONSUMER INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET AS WELL. I GET THE IMPRESSION NISSAN HAS NO INTEREST IN THE SAFETY OF THE COMMUNITY; STARTING WITH THE FACT THAT NEITHER THE DEALER NOR CONSUMER AFFAIRS HAS INTEREST IN WATCHING THE VIDEOS SHOWING THE VERY SERIOUS ISSUE. I CAN PROVIDE VIDEO TO NHTSA UPON REQUEST. THANK YOU.

I NOTICED LAST YEAR THAT MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE REALLY DIM, LITERALLY THE FOG LIGHTS ILLUMINATE FARTHER THAN THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS. I BOUGHT NEW BULBS THAT WERE LED AND MY HIGH BEAM LIGHTS ARE REALLY BRIGHT, HOWEVER THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE STILL JUST AS THEY WERE BEFORE. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND THAT MANY NISSAN ALTIMA 2013-2015 OWNERS WERE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT, IF YOU CAN'T SEE WITHOUT YOUR BRIGHT LIGHTS ON!!! WHY HAS THERE NOT BEEN A RECALL DONE ON THE HEADLIGHTS YET???? SURELY SOMETHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE THERE IS A TRAGIC WRECK BECAUSE A DRIVER CAN'T SEE TWO FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR WHILE GOING DOWN THE ROAD.

RIGHT REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM SNAPPED/FRACTURED CAUSING VEHICLE TO VEER OFF ROAD . COMPONENT REPLACED 6/2019.... CURRENTLY INSPECTING LEFT REAR LOWER CONTROL I FOUND IT HAS FRACTURED AS WELL. IT IS FRACTURED IN AN AREA WHERE THERE IS NO APPARENT DEGRADATION FROM RUST .... THE METAL IS ALL INTACT AND BRITTLE.

CAR SHUDDERS, IDLES UP AND DOWN, LOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING. WHEN ACCELERATING, THE TACHOMETER WILL RAISE TO 4500-5000 RPMS WITH NO REAL POWER SUPPLIED TO THE CAR, AND WILL ONLY SLOWLY ACCELERATE(SLIPPING?) TACHOMETER BOUNCES UP AND DOWN WITHIN 100RPM RANGE WHILE COASTING. MY CVT IS ABOUT TO FAIL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE CONTACT HEARD A RUMBLING NOISE AND THERE WAS A STRONG VIBRATION COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SURGED AND THE GEARS FAILED TO PROPERLY CHANGE OVER, WHEN NEEDED. IN ADDITION, THE TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR KEPT ILLUMINATING. TEMECULA NISSAN (41895 MOTOR CAR PKWY, TEMECULA, CA 92591, 951-972-8400) WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE SEVERAL TIMES AND KEPT INDICATING THAT THE TRACTION CONTROL INDICATOR CAUSED THE SYSTEM TO ASSUME TO BRAKE AND ALSO CAUSED A POWER TRAIN MALFUNCTION. THE MANUFACTURER LATER SENT A TECHNICIAN TO PROVIDE FURTHER TESTING. PEDDER NISSAN (200 CARRIAGE CIR, HEMET, CA 92545, (951) 225-4831) WAS ALSO CONTACTED AND INDICATED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER THAT PERFORMED THE REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED NO SOLUTION OTHER THAN A SETTLEMENT WITH NO REMEDY FOR A PERMANENT REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. THE CONTACT CALLED SULLIVAN BROTHERS NISSAN (1 CRANBERRY RD, KINGSTON, MA 02364, (781) 585-7500) TO NOTIFY THEM OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,000.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE RPM DIAL STARTED TO MOVE UP AND DOWN AND THE CAR STARTED TO SLIP GEARS. THE CAR WAS UNABLE TO GO INTO TOP GEAR, STRUGGLED TO GO UP HILLS, BEGAN SHIFTING GEARS ERRATICALLY, AND COULD NOT ACELERATE PAST 40 MILES PER HOUR. THE CAR FELT VERY HURKY JERKY AND THE RIDE WAS THE OPPPOSITE OF SMOOTH. THIS PERSISTED FOR OVER SEVERAL MILES. I GOT THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY. ACCORDING TO A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT I AM INVOLVED IN THAT NISSAN LOST, ON JUNE 9, 2019, NISSAN WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THIS ISSUE, BUT THEY ARE REFUSING TO MAKE AMENDS FOR THE ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION ON MY CAR. THE CASE IS CHRISTOPHER GANN ET AL. V. NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, CASE NUMBER 3:18-CV-00966, IN THE U.S. DISTRICT COURT FOR THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF TENNESSEE. MY CAR IS AT THE ROCKLAND NISSAN DEALERSHIP RIGHT NOW AT 845 -358-6700 AND THEY WANT US TO PAY FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSE THE CAR BECAUSE THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH ACCORDING TO THE LEGAL DEAL THEY MADE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO EXTEND OUR WARRANTY 24 MONTHS OR 24,000 MILES AND PAY FOR ANY SERVICING OF OUR TRANSMISSION.

I HAVE A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA THAT HAS 72,000 MILES ON IT. THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM I CAN BARELY SEE A FOOT IN FRONT OF ME. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS WITH LED AND IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. TRAVELING ON ANY ROAD I HAVE TO PUT MY BRIGHT LIGHTS ON JUST TO SEE. IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IT AT NIGHT AND I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PUT MY SAFETY OR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS IN JEOPARDY JUST BECAUSE NISSAN HAS A FLAWED SYSTEM THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE. IT'S SURELY SOMEONE'S RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE NISSAN PUT OUT A RECALL ON THESE HEADLIGHTS SO WE AS THE CAR OWNERS DON'T HAVE TO PAY $1,000 FOR SOMETHING THAT IS NISSAN'S FAULT. AS OF DECEMBER 2018, THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM RANKS 10TH IN THE CARCOMPLAINTS.COM RECENT PROBLEM TREND LIST. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE. NISSAN NEEDS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I AM BEGGING YOU TO PLEASE MAKE NISSAN ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS PROBLEM. THERE ARE LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF CONSUMERS COMPLAINS ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND THERE ARE OVER 96 COMPLAINTS ALONE ON YOUR WEBSITE THAT PERTAIN TO THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE FOR 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA'S FROM. PLEASE MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED!!!!!!!

THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS ON MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE SO LOW THAT YOU CANNOT SEE AT NIGHT. I HAVE CHANGE THE BULBS 2 TIMES AND I'M STILL GETTING THE SAME RESULTS. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL SHOP AND THEY SUGGESTED ME CHANGING OUT BOTH HEAD LIGHTS. WHY HAVEN'T THIS ISSUE BEEN RECALL BY NISSAN?

THE HEADLIGHTS OF THE NISSAN ALTIMA 2014 ARE TOO DIM FOR SAFE DRIVING AFTER DARK. THE LOW BEAMS, ON REGULAR SETTING, BARELY SHINE IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND PROVIDE LITTLE TO NO LIGHTING FOR THE SURROUNDING ROADWAYS. THE PERIPHERAL VIEW OF THE ROAD AND/OR MEDIANS, WHILE DRIVING, IS OBSOLETE. WHILE DRIVING THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT, I AM FORCED TO TURN ON THE HIGH BEAMS IN ORDER TO SEE A FEW FEET IN FRONT OF ME. ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION, I HAVE COMPLETELY MISSED A CAR DRIVING ON EITHER SIDE OF ME, BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. EVEN AFTER REPLACING BOTH BULBS, THE LACK OF LIGHTING IS EVIDENT. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT, WHEN I DO NOT HAVE THE HELP OF THE CITY STREET LIGHTS. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM WITH NISSAN ALTIMAS AND IT SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE FOR 2013-2015 ALTIMAS. AFTER SPEAKING WITH A MECHANIC, IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THIS ISSUE IS RAMPANT AMONG ALTIMA OWNERS. REPLACING THE BULBS FOR THE HEADLIGHTS DOES LITTLE TO SOLVE THE ISSUE, AND THE ONLY OTHER OPTION IS $1,000 WORTH OF WORK TO IMPROVE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED FOR ALL INDIVIDUALS WHO OWN THIS CAR. INADEQUATE LIGHTING, WHICH IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT IN THIS CASE, IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD FOR THE DRIVERS OF THESE VEHICLES NOT TO MENTION EVERYONE WHO SHARES THE ROAD WITH THEM.

SHAKES WHEN TAKING OFF, WHEN HITTING THE GAS IT DOESN'T WANT TO GO ANYWHERE. SHUTTERS AND VIBRATES. WHEN IT FIRST STARTED I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET

WHILE DRIVING ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET AT ROUGHLY 30MPH, MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY PULLED DRAMATICALLY TO THE RIGHT, PRETTY MUCH AGAINST MY CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL. I THOUGHT THE CAR HAD BEEN KNOCKED OUT OF ALIGNMENT THOUGH I HADN'T HIT A BUMP. I PROCEEDED HOME, APPROXIMATELY AT 10-15 MPH. I MADE AN APPT TO MY LOCAL GARAGE AND LIMPED THERE. WHEN MY CAR WAS HOISTED ONTO THE LIFT I WAS TOLD TO COME INTO THE SERVICE AREASO THAT I COULD BE SHOWN WHAT HAPPENED. THEY SHOWED THE RIGHT CONTROL ARM AND SAID THAT IT SPLIT IN 2 AND THAT I WAS EXTREMELY LUCKY THAT I WASN'T INVOLVED INA SERIOUS ROAD MISHAP. AFTER VIEWING THE PART I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT NISSAN HAS A VARIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE CONTROL ARMS ON AT LEAST 2014 ALTIMAS, WHICH I PURCHASED BRAND NEW. I DO A LOT OF HIGHWAY DRIVING AND BASED UPON HOW THE VEHICLE SWERVED SO DRASTICALLY TO THE RIGHT, I AM CERTAIN THIS VEHICLE WOULD HAVE FLIPPED OVER WITH ANY SORT OF SPEED. AT 30 MPH, I WAS LUCKY TO AVOID CONTACT WITH PEDESTRIANS OR OBJECTS. I CONTACTED NISSAN TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE REP WAS MORE INTERESTED IN INFORMING ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND NOT TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE NO OTHER COMPLAINTS FILED ABOUT THIS PART BREAKING APART. I HAVE KEPT WHAT REMAINS OF THE PART. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY MATTER. I AM CERTAINLY AVAILABLE TO PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

WE PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW IN LATE 2013. OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS WE HAVE HAD DIMNESS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT. HAVE CHANGED BULBS FOR BOTH SIDES WITH NO SUCCESS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. LIGHTS REMAIN DANGEROUSLY DIM... SO MUCH SO THAT WE NEED TO USE THE BRIGHTS TO SEE AT NIGHT. READING OTHER COMPLAINTS THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY RECALL ISSUE ON THE ALTIMA WHICH SHOULD BE ADDRESSED.

DESPITE REPLACING THE BULBS AND EVEN TRYING HID LIGHT BULBS FOR THE CAR, IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE HEADLIGHTS BEING SO DIM. YOU LITERALLY HAVE TO DRIVE WITH YOUR BRIGHT LIGHTS (HIGH BEAMS) ON IN ORDER TO SEE MORE THAN A FEW FEET AHEAD OF YOU AS YOU DRIVE. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND POSES RISK NOT ONLY TO THE DRIVER BECAUSE THEY CAN'T SEE WITHOUT DRIVING WITH HIGH BEAMS ON, BUT ALSO TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC BEING SUBJECTED TO BLINDING LIGHTS IN THEIR EYES.

MY AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON IN MY DASH. WENT TO MY LOCAL DEALER TO FIND OUT AN OLD CODE B0020-13 WAS DETECTED. THEY FOUND EVERYTHING TO BE FINE, SO THEY RESET THE CODE. THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME BACK ON TWO DAYS LATER, AND THE SAME CODE CAME ON AGAIN. THEY RECOMMENDED A REPLACEMENT OF THE SIDE AIR BAG MODULE UNDER THE DRIVER SEAT TO REPAIR THE CONCERN. THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $1600 FOR PARTS AND LABOR, AND WHAT'S WORSE, THE SOP PART IS ON BACK ORDER WITH NO ETA. SO I ASKED THE DEALER WHAT I AM SUPPOSED TO DO, AND IF THE CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE? HE SUGGESTED THAT I SHOULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR, BUT THE PART IS NOT READILY AVAILABLE ANY WHERE IN THE UNITED STATES? WHAT KIND OF GARBAGE IS THAT? THEY OFFERED ME NO SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM, AND I DON'T HAVE ANOTHER CAR TO DRIVE, AND THEY CAN'T EVEN TELL ME WHEN THE PART WILL BECOME AVAILABLE???? DOES THIS MEAN THAT THIS PROBLEM IS A PROBLEM ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY, BECAUSE WHY DON'T THEY HAVE THE PART AVAILABLE? THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE!!!! IF I WERE TO GET IN A ACCIDENT, THEN THE SIDE AIR BAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY!!

WE HAVE NOT HAD ANY ACCIDENT AND THE AIR BAG LIGHTS CAME ON. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT MOVING. WE TURNED IT ON IN THE MORNING AND IT CAME UP. WE DID NOT KNOW WHAT IT WAS AT FIRST UNTIL MY HUSBAND FRIEND INFORMED IT THAT IT WAS THE AIR BAG ABOUT 2 DAYS LATER WHEN HE SENT HIM A PICTURE.

DRIVING ON INTERSTATE THE ENGINE CHANGED TO LOW GEAR AND HAD TO PULL OVER ...IT SHAKES AND HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATE...'...LESS THAN 80,000 MILES ON THIS CAR..CONTINUES TO SHUDDER AND STALL. NISSAN IS NOT WANTING TO DO ANYTHING ..THERE HAS BEEN BULLETINS ON 2014 NISSAN ALTIMAS AND EVEN REPAIRS DONE IN OTHER STATES WHERE NISSAN PAID FOR SERVICE.. THE DEALERSHIP RESET BUT SAID THE TRANSMISSION WILL ONLY GET WORSE . CVT

THE HEADLIGHT LOW BEAMS WERE VERY DIM. I REPLACE THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. ABOUT 1/3 OF THE REFLECTIVE SURFACE INSIDE THE PROJECTOR WAS BURN OFF AND PARTS WERE CRACKED FROM THE HEAT OF THE HEAD LAMP. THE HEADLIGHTS WERE SO DIM AT TIMES IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE ROAD. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION AND SHOULD NOT HAPPEN IN A FIVE YEAR OLD CAR. THE DEALER WANTED ABOUT $1000.00 TO REPAIR AS BOTH THE RIGHT AND LEFT HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES NEED TO BE REPLACED. I WAS ABLE TO PURCHASE THE GENUINE NISSAN PARTS FOR ABOUT HALF THAT PRICE AND I DID IT MYSELF.

SUDDENLY 3 OF THE 4 DOORS WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE, CAUSING AN UNSAFE SITUATION THAT 3 PEOPLE CAN NOT EXIT THE VEHICLE IN THE CASE OF A COLLISION OR VEHICLE FIRE!

VEHICLE SHUDDERS WHEN COMING TO A STOP, THEN SHUTS DOWN. ON OCCASION WILL NOT RE ENGAGE INTO GEAR WITHOUT SHUTTING DOWN AND THEN MUST BE TOWED( TWICE HAS DIED IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF A ROAD, NEEDING TO BE TOWED). GENERALLY OCCURS WHEN SLOWING DOWN BUT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. NISSAN DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THERE ARE NO KNOWN ISSUES WITH THESE TRANSMISSIONS AND ARE UNABLE TO REPLICATE ISSUE.

DON'T HAVE TO REALLY SAY MUCH BECAUSE IT'S PRETTY MUCH ALL OVER THE INTERNET BUT THAT TRANSMISSION IS A PIECE OF JUNK!! IT WAS SLIPPING REPEATEDLY FROM AROUND 50,000-104,000 WHEN I GOT RID OF IT. IT WOULD ALSO STALL OUT (YES ON A CVT) FROM TIME TO TIME IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. IT GOT TO A POINT THAT I WAS SCARED I WAS GOING TO BE STUCK WITH A CAR WITH NO RESALE VALVE (BECAUSE OF THE TRANSMISSION) AND OWE A $14,000 PAYOFF BALANCE WITH THE BANK. SO I TRADED IT IN AND GOT A F-150.I BELIEVE ALL JATCO TRANSMISSIONS SHOULD GO UNDER AN INVESTIGATION BECAUSE THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR AMERICAN ROADS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTED, THE ENGINE REVVED, AND THE VEHICLE DECELERATED. THE ENGINE LOST POWER WHEN THE VEHICLE APPROACHED A STOP SIGN. IN ADDITION, THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AFTER IT WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. ALSO, THE "M6" MESSAGE APPEARED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT NO FAILURE CODES APPEARED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000. *TR*JB

THE CAR STALLED AND SHUT ITSELF DOWN WHEN STOPPED AT RED SIGNAL LIGHT. CAR WAS ABLE TO START BUT KEPT STALLING AND SHUTTING ITSELF DOWN AS SOON AS THE CAR WAS PUT IN DRIVE OR REVERSE OR DRIVE SPORT.

LACH IN HOOD DOESN'T WORK AND I'M SCARED IT WILL OPEN WHILE I'M DRIVING AND MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER MANIFOLD IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY (ENGINE LIGHT ON)

THE HALOGEN PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM AS TIME GOES ON AND NEW BULBS DO NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. OTHER ALTIMA OWNERS REPORT THIS SAME ISSUE AND I SUSPECT THAT THE BOWL WITH REFLECTIVE COATING ON THE PROJECTORS IS BAD. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND CAN ONLY ILLUMINATE LESS THAN 100 FEET. THE HIGH BEAMS DO NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE AS THEY ARE ONLY HALOGEN BULBS AND NOT PROJECTORS. ONE MUST DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON TO SAFELY SEE ON THE HIGHWAY AND ON DARK STREETS AND THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR SURROUNDING DRIVERS EITHER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE HOOD UNLATCHED AND STRUCK THE WINDSHIELD, CAUSING THE GLASS TO CRACK. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE ROOF OF THE VEHICLE WAS DENTED INWARD. THE CONTACT PARKED THE VEHICLE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT TIED THE HOOD DOWN AND DROVE HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. UPON RESEARCH, THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V029000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

TRANSMISSON ABRUPTLY STALLING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC AT HIGHWAY STOP OR RED LIGHT

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH BRIGHTS ON JUST TO SEE AT NIGHT. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS TWICE WITH LED AND HID AND THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM.

"TAKATA RECALL" I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE IN OCTOBER 2018. SINCE THE PURCHASE, MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE MADE ME RUN COMPLETELY OFF OF THE ROAD ONCE AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE SEVERELY DIM; ALMOST NON-EXISTENT LOW BEAMS. THEREFORE I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO DRIVE AT NIGHT USING ONLY MY HIGH BEAMS BECAUSE AS A SINGLE MOTHER OF 4, I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE OR REPAIR ENTIRE ASSEMBLE. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS A COUPLE TIMES AND WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC AT LOCAL PARTS STORE THAT THE "PROJECTOR" HAS OBVIOUSLY GONE OUT AND THAT ALL ALTIMA WITH THAT TYPE OF LIGHTS EXPERIENCE ISSUE. PLEASE HELP ME.

WHINING TRANSMISSION OCCURS AT HIGH SPEEDS

HEADLIGHT COVERS---FRONT HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM (LOW LIGHT) THAT YOU CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC TO CHANGE THE BULBS TO STRONGER BULBS TWICE AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE ISSUE IS THE LIGHT COVER, IT DOES NOT ALLOW LIGHT THROUGH. I KNOW OTHER OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME THING, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WHEN YOU ARE NOT IN A CITY OR LIT UP TOWN, I DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON WHICH IS ALSO NOT SAFE FOR OTHER DRIVERS. :(

FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AIR BAG DOES NOT ALWAYS ACTIVATE WHEN A PASSENGER IS PRESENT. SYSTEM DOES NOT SO THIS VIN AS PART OF PREVIOUS RECALLS, BUT THE CURRENT SYMPTOMS ARE EXACTLY LIKE PREVIOUS RECALLS FOR THIS PROBLEM.

PASSENGER AIR BAG INDICATOR STAYS LIT INDICATING AIR BAG IS NOT OPERATIONAL EVEN THOUGH AN ADULT IS OCCUPYING THE PASSENGER SEAT.

I CAN'T SEE AT NIGHT USING THE DIM LIGHTS. I HAVE CHANGED THEM 3 TIMES, AND PUT THE MOST EXPENSIVE/POWERFUL/BRIGHTEST LIGHTS I COULD BUY, AND PAID MECHANICS 3 TIMES TO CHANGE THEM (YOU HAVE TO GO UP THROUGH THE WHEEL WELL SKIRTING), AND THE BRIGHTNESS I GET IS LIKE CANDLE LIGHT. I TRY NOT TO EVER HAVE TO DRIVE IT AT NIGHT.

OUR 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA BEGAN EXPERIENCING A DETERIORATION OF IT'S HEADLIGHTS OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS. AT PRESENT, UNLESS THE HIGH BEAMS ARE ON, THE LIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD AT ALL. DRIVERS ARE FORCED TO EITHER USE HIGH BEAMS, WHICH MAY BLIND OR BOTHER ONCOMING TRAFFIC, OR BE LEFT WITH NO EFFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS IF ON LOW BEAM.

CAR SHAKING COMING TO A STOP THEN CUT OFF

WHEN I WAS DRIVING MY CAR STARTED GRINDING AS IF THE ENGINE WANTED TO SHUT DOWN OR THE TRANSMISSION I WAS GETTING READY TO GET ON THE FREEWAY AND I COULD BARELY MOVE IT WAS IN GEAR IT WOULDN'T DO IT IN LOW GEAR EITHER I WILL COME TO A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO MAKE IT HOME WHICH WAS 5 MILES AWAY, AND IT WOULD JUST BARELY INCH OUT SOMETIMES IT WON'T EVEN START FOR ABOUT 45 SECONDS TO A MINUTE TO GO INTO DRIVE AND THE RPMS AT 25 MILES AN HOUR WOULD HIT UP TO FIVE RPM'S THE WHOLE TIME DRIVING,I TAKE REALLY GOOD CARE OF MY CAR IN FOR THIS TO HAPPEN TO MY TRANSMISSION IS NOT OK AND THEN I STARTED LOOKING UP THAT THIS IS COMMON IN MY CAR SO WHY HAVEN'T YOU DONE ANY RECALLS? IT ALL STARTS AT 70,000 MILES BUT THERE IS NO RECALLS FOR THAT BECAUSE YOU ONLY HAVE YOUR WARRANTY IS UP TO 60,000 MILES WHICH IS A GOOD THING BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT THE TRANSMISSIONS GOING TO GO OUT AFTER 60,000 MILES, ANYWAY I BARELY GOT MY CAR BACK TO MY HOME AND I HAVE A MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND IT'S GOING TO COST ME ALMOST $4500 TO GET MY TRANSMISSION FIXED, AND I STILL OWE 16,000 ON IT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOUR NISSAN ULTIMA'S BUT LOOKING UP ONLINE MINE IS NOT THE FIRST ONE THAT THIS IS HAPPENED TO SO THEREFORE SINCE I CAN'T DRIVE A CAR BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY ALL THAT MONEY, AND THEN I ALSO AM OUT OF WORK BECAUSE I NEED A CAR TO DRIVE BACK-AND-FORTH, I AM GOING TO FIND AN ATTORNEY THAT WILL DO A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST YOU GUYS FOR THE VEHICLES DOING THIS! WHAT IS HAPPENING IS NOT OK, AND SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN BUT WITH EVERYTHING I LOOKED UP ONLINE THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF NISSAN ALTIMA'S 2014'S AROUND 70,000 MILES THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT THIS IS A PROBLEM AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED!

ON OCCASION WHEN PASSENGER ENTERS VEHICLE, AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT DOES NOT GO OUT GIVING THE APPEARANCE THAT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT THINK A PASSENGER IS IN THE VEHICLE. TYPICALLY OCCURS WHEN PASSENGER IS ENTERING VEHICLE AT THE SAME TIME THE VEHICLE IS BEING STARTED. CAN USUALLY BE 'RESOLVED' BY TURNING VEHICLE OFF AND ON AGAIN. HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES.

CURTAIN SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON; SOMETIMES IT TURNS OFF BUT THEN IT TURNS ON.

CAN'T SEE WITH HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM. I HAVE REPLACED BULBS MULTIPLE TIMES BUT DOESN'T HELP. WILL BE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX CORRECTLY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I CAN BARELY SEE IN FRONT OF ME ON ANY ROAD AT NIGHT.

CAR STALLS OUT WHILE DRIVING ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF OR SPUTTERS LIKE IT IS GOING TO DIE IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC WHILE DRIVING IT DOES NOT MATTER OF IT IS HOT OR COLD IT DOES OT WHEN EVER IT WANTS TOO NOTHING TRIGGERS THE RANDOM SPUTTERING OR ENGINE DYING AS WELL CAR HAS A GRINDING METAL NOISE COMING FROM THE BRAKES REPLACED THE BRAKES AND ROTORS BUT STILL MAKING THE NOISE AS IF BRAKES ARE VERY BAD.

MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. VISIBILITY IS VERY POOR AT NIGHT TIME AND WHEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE I HAVE TO PLAN MY TRIPS TO DRIVE IN THE DAY TIME. I ALREADY REPKACED THE BULBS BUT IT DID NOT HELP AND WAS TOLD I HAVE TO REPLACED THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY.

TAKADA RECALL. ON MY 2014 ALTIMA CAN'T SEE WITH LIGHTS ON LOW BEAM HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THEM ON HIGH BEAM. REPLACED BULBS MULTIPLE TIMES BUT DOESN'T HELP. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I CAN BARELY SEE 10 FEET IN FRONT OF ME.

I WAS DRIVING IN THE PASSING LANE AT 65MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT RUSH HOUR ON THE INTERSTATE. THE RIGHT FRONT CONTROL ARM FAILED AND I WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL AND PULL OFF THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF HIGHWAY. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALER. THE RIGHT FRONT CONTROL ARM WAS RUSTED APART AND THE LEFT ARM WAS INTACT BUT WAS ALSO HEAVILY RUSTED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED AND THE BATTERY WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AS THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO BANISTER NISSAN OF NORFOLK (1250 N MILITARY HWY, NORFOLK, VA 23502) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CVT FAILED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED REPLACEMENT AND THE CVT NEEDED REPROGRAMMING. THE NISSAN MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED IN DECEMBER OF 2018; HOWEVER, THERE WAS AN OPEN SERVICE CAMPAIGN NUMBER: PC490 (CVT REPROGRAM). THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE HAD NOT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF THE OPEN SERVICE CAMPAIGN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 97,000.

THE STEERING WHEEL IS VERY LOOSE AND THE CAR IS HARD TO KEEP STRAIGHT. IT IS ALL OVER THE ROAD. IF YOU GET IN A GROOVE IN THE ROAD IT WILL ABOUT TAKE THE CAR AND CAUSE YOU TO LOSE CONTROL. I THOUGHT I HAD A PROBLEM SOMEWHERE ELSE BUT HAD EVERYTHING CHECKED AND IT IS THE STEERING. WHEN OTHERS RIDE WITH ME THEY ASK IF I'M OK BECAUSE OF THE CAR GOING SIDE TO SIDE. I AVOID THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE WITH SPEED INCREASE IT'S EVEN HARDER TO KEEP IN MY LANE. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM RIGHT AFTER GETTING THE CAR. TRIED TO IGNORE THINKING IT WAS ME, THAT I WAS NOT USE TO THE WAY A NISSAN HANDLED AS I HAVE NEVER OWNED ONE BEFORE. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE READ AT LEAST 16 COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER NISSAN OWNER'S WHILE ON THE INTERNET TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM DOES NOT PRODUCE ENOUGH LIGHT TO SEE THE SIDES OF THE ROAD OR ANY OBJECT WITHIN 5 TO 10 FEET IN FRONT OF CAR. REPLACED BULB WITH UPGRADED BULBS AND IT DID NOT HELP. VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. I CAN'T DRIVE WHEN IT IS RAINING TO HARD TO SEE. THIS IS ONLY WITH THE LOW BEAM. THIS HAS BECOME WORSE OVER TIME. I BROUGHT THIS CAR NEW. I HAVE LESS THEN 100000 MILES.

CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURE

1) FRONTAL PASSENGER AIR BAG. IT ALWAYS SAYS OFF, EVEN WHEN THERE'S A PASSENGER. I'M NOT SURE WHETHER THIS IS A TAKATA INFLATOR. (THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME ALL THE TIME WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING, WETHER IDLEING, DRIVE, NEUTRAL AND REVERSE) 2) HEADLIGHTS. THE HEADLIGHTS (BOTH) CONTINUALLY GET DIMMER AND DIMMER UNTIL YOU ARE UNABLE TO SEE CAUSING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. (THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME ALL THE TIME WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING, WETHER IDLEING, DRIVE, NEUTRAL AND REVERSE)I HAVE HAD OR CHANGED MY LIGHT BULB(S) AT LEAST (6) TIMES IN THE 16 MONTHS I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN STOPPED BY LAW INFORCEMENT SEVERAL TIMES AND A LIVERY DRIVER I HAVE HAD CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS.

THE VEHICLE HAS DIM LIGHTING AND IS GETTING WORSE AS TIME GOES BY. IT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT AND I USE THE HIGH BEAMS TO BE ABLE TO SEE THE DARK ROADWAYS AND SIGNS, WHICH CAUSES BLINDNESS TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AND I BELIEVABLE THAT NISSAN WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY OVER THIS. REPLACING BULBS DOES NOT FIX THE ISSUE NOR DOES WARRANTY COVER THE COST.

LOW DIM HEADLIGHTS IN FRONT OF VEHICLE. MAKES IT EXTREMELY HARD TO DRIVE VEHICLE AT NIGHT WITHOUT HIGH BEAMS.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROJECT ENOUGH LIGHT TO DRIVE SAFELY AT NIGHT. THIS ISSUE HAS GOTTEN WORSE OVER TIME FORCING THE CONSTANT USE OF HIGH BEAMS IN ORDER TO DRIVE AFTER DARK. DRIVING WITH LOW BEAMS CREATES A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE LOW BEAMS ONLY ILLUMINATE ABOUT A CAR LENGTH AND DRIVING CONSTANTLY WITH HIGH BEAMS ALSO CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD. I REPLACED THE BULBS 3 TIMES IN 3 MONTHS CHOOSING BRIGHTER BULBS EACH TIME, AS WELL AS BUYING FACTORY BULBS FROM THE NISSAN DEALER, BUT NOTHING CHANGED.

I PURCHSED THIS CAR FEB 2ND 2019 COUPLE DAYS LATER ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON SO CAR HAS 30DAY WARRANTY SO I CALL AND THEY HAD ME GO THERE MECHANIC PUT IN THE SHOP. A CODE FOR 02 SENSORS CAME UP BUT HE SAY HE JUST NEED REPLACE CADILLAC CONVERTER HE DIDNT NEED REPLACE SENSORS SO 5 DAYS LATER I PICK UP CAR AND 3 DAYS AFTER LIGHT COMES BACK ON I CALL COMPLAIN ON WAY COMING FROM ANOTHER CITY HOUR AWAY AND NOTICING CAR JERKING AND LOOSING POWER ON HWY ON WAY MECHANIC CAR BREAKS DOWN IM STRANDED WITH BABY FOR HOUR THEY TOW THEY SHOP SAY IT WAS FUEL.PUMPS I GET CAR THINKING THINGS GOOD I MAKE A 300 PAYMEMT SINCE I STILL OWED 1500 ON DOWN PAYMENT DAYS LATER LIGHT COMESON AGAIN SMOKE COMES OUT BACK CAR WHEN I START. IT. IN MORNING CAR JERKS BACK REAL HARD WHEN I GET ON HWY OR HESITATE PICK UP SPEED ENGINE MAKING RATTLING NOISE AND OIL PRESSURE SENSOR ON I TAKE IT FOR 2ND OPNION BEFORE TAKING BACK THERE MECHANIC AND THE THING THEY SUPPOSE FIX STILL SHOWS NEED BE FIX MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR AND THEN OIL PRESSURE SENSOR AND SPARK PLUS SO I TELL MECHANIC DID YALL EVEN FIX MASS FLPW SENSOR CAUSE SAME CODE POP UP HE SAYS SOME TIMES NEW PARTS CAN ACT FAULTY BUT DONT WORRY WE FIX IT. GOT WARRANTY BUT HE GOTTA ASK PERMISSION ABOUT SPARK PLUGS AND OIL PRESSURE SENSOR SO HE ASK ME WHEN I CAN COME IN I SAY FRIDAY THE NIGHT BEFORE MY APPT CAR BREAKS DOWN 40 MIN. ON HWY CAR LOOSES POWER LIGHTS DONT WORK HEAD LIGHS DONT WORK CAR KEY WONT OPEN DOORS OR TRUNK AND IM GETTING I KEY SYSTEM ERROR I GO REPLACE BATTERY THAT DIDNT HELP SO SATURDAY THEY TOW CAR AND SEND ME A REPO LETTER SINCE IM BEHIND PAYMENT CAUSE IM NOT GONNA KEEP PAYING ON CAR THATS BREAKING DOWN LEAVING ME STRANDED AT THIS POINT I GAVE THEM 3 TRIES SO I JUST WANT MY 1500 PLUS 300 BACK EVEN THO WARRANTY EXPIRED I DID ADRESS THIS 3 TIMES BEFORE IT EXPIRED

WHEN DRIVING IN THE LATE EVENING OR NIGHT TIME,I AM UNABLE TO SEE THE STREET AHEAD OF ME WHILE DRIVING. MY LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. I NOTICED THIS ABOUT FOUR MONTHS AGO. MY VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAVE APPROXIMATELY 79400 MILES ON IT. I HAVE GOOGLED THIS SITUATION AND FOUND THAT THIS IS COMMON AMONG NISSAN ALTIMAS IN THIS TIME FRAME.

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH BRIGHTS ON JUST TO SEE AT NIGHT. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS TWICE WITH LED AND HID AND THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM.

THE HEADLIGHTS ESPECIALLY THE DRIVER SIDE I CAN BARELY SEE FROM. I THOUGHT HEADLIGHT WAS OUT OF ADJUSTMENT AND GOT IT CHECKED AND THEY SAID IT APPEARS TO BE A FLAW WITH THE REFLECTORS. I CAN NOT SEE ANYTHING HARDLY FROM THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT. I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS ON. ALSO AFTER SEARCHING THIS TYPE OF ISSUE I FOUND THAT SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING CAR LIGHTS WOULD DIM WHEN TURNING CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. NO WARNING ,NO CODES , NO SAFETY LIGHTS TO USE. COULDN'T MOVE CAR BECAUSE STEERING LOCKED PLUS NO POWER. WOULD NOT START TOWED CAR TO DEALER. THEY CAN'T FIND THE ISSUES. CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE SHUTTING OFF AND NO EMERGENCY LIGHTS TO WARN OTHER DRIVERS. BECAUSE ALL POWER GOES. I TRIED TO PULL OVER BUT LIGHTS CONTINUED TO DIM. IF IT HAD BEEN DAYLIGHT WOULDN'T HAVE NOTICED. I'M

I AM ISSUING A COMPLAINT ABOUT MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA DUE TO THE EXTREME DULLNESS OF HEADLIGHT POWER. NISSAN HAS FAILED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS ISSUE, AND THE FACT THAT IS INDEED A SAFETY CONCERN. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY TIMES WHERE I HAVE HAD TO SLAM ON MY BREAKS BECAUSE I NEARLY HIT A LARGE ANIMAL OR OTHER OBJECT IN THE ROAD. MY HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROJECT FAR OR WIDE. ID ESTIMATE THEY PROJECT 4 FEET IN FRONT OF ME, I HAVE TRIED ADJUSTING THE HEADLIGHTS UP AND CHANGING TO VERY EXPENSIVE AND HIGH QUALITY LED BULBS, WITH NO IMPROVEMENT.

AS MY VEHICLE PASSED 60,000 MILES FEW MORE HUNDRED AND TRANSMISSION FAILED. THEY MAKE THE WORST TRANSMISSION

NA

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON SAYING THERE IS SOMEBODY IN THE SEAT AND NOBODY IS

MY CAR STARTED "SPUTTERING" AND SHUTTING OFF WHEN IN MOTION OR COMING TO A STOP. THE CAR THEN STARTED TO REV THE ENGINE BETWEEN 2-3RPM WHEN I WAS DRIVING AT A CONSTANT SPEED. WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, THE CAR REVVED PAST 4RPM AND COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO STOP THE CAR, BUT NO ONE SHOULD EVER HAVE TO ENDURE THAT DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC EVENT. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT MY TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. IT IS APPARENT THAT NISSAN HAD KNOWINGLY SOLD CARS WITH FAULTY TRANSMISSIONS THAT WOULD FAIL FAR BEFORE AN ACCEPTABLE TIME WITH MANY CONSUMERS FACING THE HIGH COST OF REPAIRING THE TRANSMISSION. AS I WAS HOPING THIS WAS A ONE-OFF SITUATION AND THAT NO ONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS A FREQUENT COMPLAINT FOR THE NISSAN ALTIMA 2014. NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT AND EXTEND THEIR POWER TRAIN WARRANTY TO 120,000 MILES OR 10 YEARS AS THEY HAVE FOR THEIR CAR MODELS FROM 2003-2010.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. I EVEN REPLACE THEM WITH HID AND LED LIGHT BUT NO CHANGE VERY LOW VISIBILITY AT NIGHT

DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT IS VERY DIM AND VERY HARD TO SEE AT NIGHT. I REPLACED THE BULB, BUT AFTER REPLACING THE BULB IT STILL VERY DIM ON DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT. ITS VERY HARD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITH THIS POOR LIGHTING. IF I DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS OTHER CARS FLASH ME TO LOWER THE LIGHT BECAUSE I BLIND THEM WITH THE HIGH BEAMS.

DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT IS DIM. CHANGING THE BULB DOESN'T HELP. THE PROJECTOR INSIDE THE HOUSING GOES BAD PREMATURELY AND THE HEADLIGHT MUST BE REPLACED AS A WHOLE. I HAD THIS CAR BRAND NEW AND IT'S WELL TAKEN CARE OF. IT HAS 82K MILES ON IT. MY WIFE WAS PULLED OVER BECAUSE OF THIS. NISSAN WILL NOT HELP.

I HAVE A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SV, AND THE LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. I ALSO DID SOME ONLINE SEARCHES AND FIND THAT OTHER ALTIMA OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DIM LOW BEAM IS OBVIOUSLY A SAFETY ISSUE! THE CLOUDY PROJECTOR LENS IS THE REASON! BECAUSE, FIRSTLY I REPLACED THE BULBS, BUT THERE WAS NO CHANGE; SECONDLY, THE HIGH BEAM WORKS PERFECTLY, INDICATING THE THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE OUTER TRANSPARENT SHIELD. THE HIGH BEAM BULB LIES IN A REGULAR REFLECTION BOWL RATHER THAN IN A PROJECTOR LIKE THE LOW BEAM USED. OTHER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH REGULAR REFLECTION BOWL FOR LOW BEAM WORKS PERFECTLY, SUCH AS 2007 BUICK LUCERNE (12 YEARS AGE!). THEREFORE, THE DESIGN OF THE LOW BEAM USING A PROJECTOR ON 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA IS DEFECTIVE, PUTTING THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS INTO DANGER WHEN THE LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS GETTING DIM. THEY NEED TO OPEN A RECALL AND REPLACE THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE BARELY VISIBLE ON LOW BEAM AT NIGHT AND THE NEW BULBS WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I SPOKE WITH SOMEONE AT NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY KNOW THIS IS COMMON PROBLEM BUT THEY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING TO FIX IT. THIS IS A VERY REAL SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE DIRVER , AS IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT

TRANSMISSION, CALLED "THROW AWAY TRANSMISSION" BY 3 DIFFERENT MECHANICS. CODE CAME ON DURING FREEWAY DRIVING. HAVE BEEN TOLD BY 3 MECHANICS (INCLUDING THE NISSAN DEALER) NOTHING CAN BE DONE BUT REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION.

THE BULBS ARE FADING AND HAVE BEEN REPLACED. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY OWNER FINDING THIS PROBLEM.

MY VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION DURING REPAIRS THE BODY SHOP RAN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST IN MY VEHICLE AND IT STATED INFO ABOUT THE OCD SYSTEM WHICH I HAVE LOOKED UP AND THIS CAR HAS HAD 5 TOTAL RECALLS IN THE SAME THING, WHAT AM I TO DO

DRIVER SIDE LOW BEAM IS EXTREMELY DIM. HAD IT LOOKED AT. HEADLIGHT HOUSING. $700. AT NIGHT I CAN'T SEE SO I HAVE TO KEEP MY HIGH BEAMS ON.

THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS I NOTICED THE HEADLIGHT WERE GETTING DIMMER. I REPLACED THE BULBS WITH ONES THAT ARE 60% BRIGHTER BUT IT WAS MARGINALLY BRIGHTER. I CAN BARELY SEE A FEW FEET IN FRONT IF IT'S COMPLETELY DARK. I CAN SEE MY CAR'S SHADOW CAST FROM THE LIGHTS OF THE CAR BEHIND ME. I CANNOT TELL IF THE LIGHTS ARE ON UNTIL I'M RIGHT BEHIND A VEHICLE. ROAD SIGNS ARE BARELY LUMINATED AND I HAVE TO SWITCH TO HIGH BEAMS IF THERE ARE NO CARS AHEAD OF ME.

HEADLIGHTS (NORMAL DRIVING) ARE EXTREMELY DIM. DIFFICULT TO SEE AT TIME, USING FOGLIGHTS AND HIGH BEAMS TO MAKE SAFE.

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA'S HEADLIGHTS HAVE BECOME VERY DIM THE PAST COUPLE YEARS. I AM AWARE THAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THEIR NISSAN HEADLIGHTS AS WELL. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. I CAN BARELY SEE UNLESS MY HEADLIGHTS ARE ON. THIS PROBLEM HAS ALSO BEEN DANGEROUS IN THE RAIN AND I'VE ALMOST GOTTEN IN ACCIDENTS. NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL THE HEADLIGHTS. I KNOW OTHER PEOPLE WITH AN ALTIMA BETWEEN 2013-2015 WHO HAVE GOTTEN IN ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THE VERY DIM HEADLIGHTS. MY HUSBAND HAS A JEEP AND HIS HEADLIGHTS ARE NOTICEABLY BETTER. NISSAN CANNOT DAY THEIR VEHICLE IS SAFE IF THIS IS HAPPENING. IT'S SIMPLY NOT TRUE.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. BULBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND NO CHANGE IN LIGHTING. AT NIGHT THE LIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT YOU CANNOT SEE IF ANYTHING IS IN THE STREET AHEAD. I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL I PULL BEHIND SOMEONE TO SEE IF THE LIGHTS ARE STILL ON. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THAT THE BATTERY WAS LOW. REPLACED THE BATTERY AND NO CHANGE IN THE LIGHTING. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT BUT SOMETHING IS BOUND TO HAPPEN TO SOMEONE SOONER OR LATER DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T FEEL SOMEONE SHOULD BE INJURED OR KILLED BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE ABOUT THE PROBLEM.

LOW BEAMS ARE EXTREMELY DIM CREATING A SAFETY HAZARD. FORCED TO USE HIGH BEAMS TO SEE THE ROAD. INTERNET IS FILLED WITH SAME COMPLAINT. MAY BE THE DESIGN THAT PRESENTS A PROJECTION PROBLEM. HAS BEEN ONGOING, BUT GETTING WORSE WITH TIME.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM TO DRIVE SAFELY AT NIGHT. YOU CANNOT SEE MORE THAN A FEW FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR. HIGH BEAMS MUST BE USED TO SEE ON ROADS THAT HAVE NO STREET LIGHTS. I HAVE HIT MULTIPLE THINGS IN THE ROAD WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AT NIGHT DUE TO THE FACT THAT I CAN NOT SEE THEM UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE TO MANEUVER OUT OF THE WAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE UNDER THE HOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND DRAINED THE TORQUE. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

I WAS DRIVING THE FREEWAY AND LOST POWER ENGINE AND SHUT OFFS I'M NOT SURE HOW I DIDN'T HAVE THE ACCIDENT YET. TAKE IT TO MECHANIC FIND OUT IT WAS A THROTTLE BODY POSITION SENSOR AND THE THROTTLE BODY CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR REPLACED ALL THAT STILL GIVING THE SAME PROBLEM HOW TO REPLACE IT AGAIN. SO THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 70 I WAS GOING 65 SO LOST LOST IN THE ENTIRE ENGINE AT SPEED OF 65 IS REALLY DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER

MY CAR HAS HAD MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. MY SMOG MECHANIC HAS CHECKED IT, HE STATED IT NEEDED A MASS AIRFLOW SENSER. HE INSTALLED IT. $$$$$$ LIGHT WENT OUT, CAME BACK ON IN A DAY OR TO. HE ORDERED ANOTHER ONE, SAME THING HAPPENED. I AM REALLY TIRED OF THIS. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW, ONLY HAS 68000 MILES ON IT. HELP ME OUT, WHATS THE PROBLEM. I NOTICED THAT ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALER HAS NO CLUE!!!!!! HELP ME PLEASE

THE LOW BEAMS ON MY VEHICLE ARE VERY DIM. AT NIGHT I NEED TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON TO SEE. THIS IS A COMMON DEFECT IN THIS MAKE MODEL YEAR CAR FROM RESEARCH I'VE CONDUCTED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER IT WAS PURCHASED FROM SEVERAL TIMES, ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THE LIGHTS ARE FINE. PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE.

MY LOW BEAM LIGHTS HAVE PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN DIMMER. CHANGING THE BULBS DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. IT IS BECOMING TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.

I HAVE A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA THAT REVS UP WHILE I;M DRIVING AND THEN STOPS. I TURN IT OFF AND START IT AGAIN. IT DOES THIS CONSTANTLY. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE I'M DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, I HEAR A REVVING UP SOUND, THE CAR STARTS TO HESITATE,, IT SLOWS DOWN AND THEN COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP. IT DOESN;T GIVE ME A CHANCE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD. I HAVE TO IMMEDIATELY PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS. IT STOPS WITHOUT WARNING. ONCE I HEAR THE REVVING UP SOUND, WITHIN A FEW SECONDS SHE HESITATES, SLOWS DOWN AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. VERY, VERY DANGEROUS. THE CAR HESITATES WHEN MAKING TURNS ALSO. CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE IF YOU STOP AT A LIGHT LIKE SHE SUPPOSE TO. LET ME EXPLAIN. WHEN I'M AT A RED LIGHT AND THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN, I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS AND THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE, SHE HESITATES, GO SLOWLY, THEN KICKS IN AND ALLOWS YOU TO PROCEED. I'M VERY AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. I HAVE HEARD OTHERS AND ON THE NEWS SAY PEOPLES EXPERIENCE WITH THEIR NISSAN ALTIMA SHUTTING DOWN JUST LIKE MINE. FOR ME ITS SHUTTING DOWN EVERYWHERE. IT'S HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY, STREET, ALWAYS WHEN IN MOTION, DURING TURNS, AFTER STOPPING AT A RED LIGHT AND ITS TIME TO PROCEED. I'VE ALMOST GOTTEN HIT BY OTHER CARS MANY TIMES WHEN SHE SUDDENLY STALLS. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THIS VEHICLE. I DON'T HAVE VIDEO OF INCIDENT BECAUSE IT HASN'T HAD AN ACCIDENT YET, BUT I'M SURE AN ACCIDENT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY DAY. I'M NERVOUS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT. IT'S THE MERCIES OF GOD THAT I HAVEN'T HAD AN ACCIDENT. PLEASE NOTE I WAS ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT THAT WOULD HAVE BADLY INJURED OR KILLED ME WHEN I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN ON HWY 78. THE CAR STALLED WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN. THE SUV ALMOST HIT ME AS I WAS MAKING MY LEFT TURN AND THE CAR STALLED AND THE SUV STOPPED JUST AS IT WAS ABOUT TO HIT ME. I WAS SHAKEN UP SO BADLY, I HAD TO PARK MY CAR AND CALM MY NERVES. THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING. IT'S A DANGEROUS CAR.

CVT DTC CODE P17F0 BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE CVT FLUID CHANGED AT THE 60,000 MILE SERVICE. THE DEALER SHOWED ME THE DTC CODE INDICATING THAT THERE IS A CVT PROBLEM. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT WHEN THE 2014 ALTIMA WITH AN L33 ENGINE CAME OUT, NISSAN WAS CHANGING THE CVT BECAUSE THE CODE INDICATES AN IMMINENT FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THAT SINCE THEN BECAUSE IT COST NISSAN TOO MUCH, NISSAN HAS STARTED TO REBUILD THE CVT AND THE DEALERS HAVE A TRAINED MECHANIC TO REBUILD THE CVT AND CORRECT THE CVT JUDDER CODE. THE DEALER STATED THEY WOULD CONTACT NISSAN AND ADVISE WHAT HOW NISSAN WILL CORRECT THE DEFICIENCY. NOW OVER 2 WEEKS, THE DEALER HAS NOT RETURNED MY PHONE CALLS TO ADVISE HOW NISSAN WILL HANDLE. MY WIFE DRIVES THE CAR WITH MY YOUNG DAUGHTER AND I TRAVEL FOR WORK. I AM NOW CONCERNED THE CVT WILL BE PROBLEMS WHEN I AM AWAY AND COULD INADVERTENTLY CAUSE A TRAFFIC ACCIDENT WHEN SHE IS DRIVING IF THE CVT FAILS. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY CAMPAIGN THAT THE NHTSA TAKES ON AND PURSUES. NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT THEIR PROBLEMS AND EVENTUALLY WHEN THERE IS A FAILURE ON THE HIGHWAY SOMEONE WILL GET KILLED OR IT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED AND THE CAUSAL FACTORS HAVE NOT BEEN IDENTIFIED ATTRIBUTED TO THE ACCIDENT. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND IT SEEMS LIKE NISSAN IS NOT CONCERNED OR PERFORMING A RECALL JUST AS THE WAY NISSAN IS HANDLING THE TAKATA AIR BAG PROBLEMS IN THEIR CARS. FURTHER, IT IS EXTREMELY INTERESTING THAT WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN IN FOR PAS SERVICE, THE OTHER NISSAN DEALERS DID NOT DO THE QUICK SIMPLE CHECK OF THE CODES TO ENSURE THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS. WOULDN'T IT BENEFIT THEM AS IT COULD PRODUCE BUSINESS?? HOW STUPID AND POOR SERVICE WE RECEIVE FROM THE DEALERS.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM, THEY ARE VERY UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT YOU CAN'T SEE MORE THAN A FEW FEET IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, STREET SIGNS AND ROAD REFLECTORS DO NOT ILLUMINATE AT ALL. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS SEVERAL TIMES WITH OUT ANY IMPROVEMENT, THE MOST RECENT CHANGE WAS MADE WITH A NEW LED LIGHTING KIT WITH NO IMPROVEMENT IN THE DOWN ROAD VISION. THE PROBLEM DOES NOT CHANGE IF THE VEHICLE IS STANDING AT IDLE OR IN MOTION.

REPLACED TRANSMISSION AT 84000 MILES AT A COST OF $4100 BECAUSE OF SHUDDERING AND STALLING. AT 100600 MILES AND 11 MONTHS LATER THE TRANSMISSION FAILED THE EXACT SAME WAY AGAIN. NISSAN WOULD NOT COVER THE COST OF ANOTHER REPLACEMENT. IT COST ME ANOTHER $1050 WITH THE HELP OF THE DEALER AND NISSAN WHO KNOW THEY HAVE A TOTALLY FAULTY TRANSMISSION AND WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE. IT STALLED AND SHUTTERDAT A HIGHWAY INTERSECTION AND WAS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I AM LUCKY I WASN'T SMASHED INTO ON THE HIGHWAY.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE PROGRESSIVELY GETTING MORE DIM OVER TIME. LIGHTS ARE DIM ALL THE TIME, NOT RELATED TO IDLE OR OTHER FUNCTIONS. MILEAGE IS 80,000 MILES. NIGHT DRIVING IS HAZARDOUS. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE LIGHTING ONLY A FEW FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR, NOT ILLUMINATING TRAFFIC SIGNS, DIFFICULTY WHEN MAKING TURNS AT A CORNER OR DRIVEWAY. I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS AT NIGHT, THE HIGH BEAMS WORK FINE BUT ARE A HAZARD FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS IS NOW A SAFETY HAZARD THAT NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION.

DEFECTIVE LOW -BEAM HEADLIGHT WHILE DRIVEING THE VEHICLE YOU CANNOT SEE ANYTHING AND FRONT OF YOU. LOOK LIKE THE HEADLIGHTS ARE FACING THE GROUND . YOU WOULD HAVE TO TURN ON THE HIGH BEAM HEAD LIGHT IN ORDER TO SEE A SAFE DISTANCE AHEAD .THE DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHT MAY BE INADEQUATE TO MEET STATE AND FEDERAL SAFETY REGULATIONS. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICE ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THEY INFORM ME TO TAKE THE CARE INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND GET IT LOOK AT THE FILE A CLAIM. I HAVE DONE BOTH STILL NO RESOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE ,ALSO I HAVE RESEARCH ONLINE IN A LOT OF CUSTOMER HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THE 2013 -2017 NISSAN ALTIMA LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT ISSUES NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT ONLY THE HIGH BEAM LIGHTS PROVIDE EXTRA SIGHT TO SEE AHEAD . IN CONCLUSION I HAVE HAD THE HEADLIGHT CHANGED AS WELL THIS THE ISSUE HAVEN'T BEEN RESOLVED .

ABOUT FIVE MONTHS AGO BACK IN AUGUST 2018 MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN OUT OF NOWHERE IT STALLED. HE EXPLAINED THAT IT JUST STALLED BUT WOULD START BACK UP AND THEN WHEN HE WOULD SHIFT IT INTO DRIVE, IT WOULD STALL OUT AGAIN. WE THEN TOOK IT TO A SHOP AND THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE WHAT IT DID WITH MY HUSBAND. SO, THEY SAID IT MIGHT BE A SOFTWARE ISSUE AND UPDATED IT. FAST FORWARD THIS PAST FRIDAY ON JANUARY 11TH, 2019, I WAS AT A RED STOP SIGN, WHEN OUT OF NOWHERE MY CAR STALLS. I ACTUALLY THOUGHT SOMEONE HAD HIT ME BECAUSE IT JUST JOLTED TO A STOP SO SUDDENLY IT FELT AS IF SOMEONE HIT MY CAR. SAME THING HAPPENED THAT OCCURRED WITH MY HUSBAND. SHUT OFF CAR, RESTARTS PERFECTLY, THEN SHIFT TO DRIVE AND STALLS. I GET A TOW TRUCK TO TOW IT TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP. EVEN THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER SAID HE'S NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT, AND THAT HE DROVE IT OFF THE TOW TRUCK NO PROBLEM. I GET A CALL TWO DAYS LATER FROM NISSAN SAYING THAT IT SHOWS UP AS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE AND THAT IT WILL COST AROUND $5,000 TO REPLACE IT. NO EXPLANATION TO WHY A FIVE-YEAR-OLD CAR THAT HAS BEEN PERFECTLY MAINTAINED WOULD NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. OF COURSE, THE WARRANTY IS ONLY COVERED AT 60,000 MILES SO I HAD NO WAY OF COVERAGE. THAT DAY I DID INVESTIGATING ON WEBSITES TO FIND A RECALL OR ANY INFORMATION. WHAT I FOUND WAS DESCRIBING EXACTLY WHAT OCCURRED WITH MY CAR AND TO LOTS AND LOTS OF PEOPLE WITH THIS VEHICLE! I THEN CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY CREATED A CASE NUMBER FOR ME. I JUST RECEIVED A CALL TODAY FROM THEM STATING: "NISSAN WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ASSIST YOU IN ANY WAY." THIS IS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE WITH EITHER THE TRANSMISSION OR A SOFTWARE ISSUE THAT IS SAYING IT'S A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED FURTHER FOR THE SAFETY OF THE CONSUMERS OF THIS VEHICLE OR IF PEOPLE ARE BEING WRONGFULLY CHARGED MONEY.

HEADLAMPS ARE DIMMING AND NIGHT TIME DRIVING REQUIRES THE USE OF HIGH BEAMS. DEALER STATED THAT IT IS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. ONLY OPTION IS TO REPLACE THE HEADLAMPS. VEHICLE HAS 52,600 MILES. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE WITHOUT GOOD ILLUMINATED VISIBILITY.

WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 35 MPH ON A PAVED ROAD AND HOOD UNLATCHED AND FLEW UP TO WINDSHIELD. CURRENTLY VEHICLE IS IN A REPAIR SHOP .

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAD TO BE USED WHEN DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN OF LAS CRUCES (1801 S MAIN ST, LAS CRUCES, NM 88005, 575-523-5571). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED, BUT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON OUR 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE SO DIM YOU CAN BARELY SEE. I CHANGED THE BULBS OUT TO A BRIGHTER AFTERMARKET LED BULB AND THE DIFFERENCE IS MINIMAL AT BEST. THE HIGH BEAMS ARE STILL VERY BRIGHT BUT THEY ARE NOT THE PROJECTION STYLE. IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT WHEN THERE IS ONCOMING TRAFFIC I MUST KEEP THE FOG LIGHTS ONTO LIGHT UP THE ROAD. THE ILLUMINATION IS SO POOR THAT SECURITY LIGHTS THAT ARE OVER PEOPLE'S DRIVEWAYS ARE BRIGHTER THAN THE HEADLIGHTS AND DRIVING AT NIGHT IN THE RAIN IS BASICALLY IMPOSSIBLE ON LOW BEAM. I'VE TALKED TO A NISSAN MECHANIC AND HE SAID THE ONLY TRUE FIX WILL BE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY BECAUSE THEIR ARE ISSUES WITH THE MATERIALS BREAKING DOWN INSIDE THE PROJECTOR PORTION OF THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. IF THAT'S THE CASE NISSAN HAS DONE A POOR JOB OF DESIGNING THEIR HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AND SHOULD REPLACE THEM AT THEIR COST AS THIS IS A VERY REAL HAZARD. AFTER SPEAKING TO THE MECHANIC I STARTED LOOKING ONLINE AND HAVE FOUND THIS ISN'T AN ISOLATED ISSUE, EVIDENTLY IT'S ALL ALTIMAS FROM 2013-2015 THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM.

HEADLAMPS ARE VERY DIM WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. CONTROL ARMS ARE LOOSE, I'M GUESSING THE RESULT OF THE 2 FLAPS ON EACH SIDE.UNDERNEATH THE CAR KEEPS COMING LOOSE EVEN AFTER REPLACING PLASTIC SCREWS. NO ACCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED.

ISSUE WITH HEADLIGHTS BEING TOO DIM AND UNABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT. POLICE HAS STOPPED ME AND CONFIRMED THAT DRIVING THE CAR WITH THE DIM LIGHT MAKE IT NOT STREET LEGAL. NISSAN DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO FIX AND ONLY SOLUTION IS TO REPLACE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WAY TOO QUICKLY, BECOME UNSAFE DUE TO WELL KNOWN FAULTY MANUFACTURER DEFECT. FAULTY PART MAY BE CALLED "REFLECTOR". LIGHT OUTPUT QUALITY IS NOT SAFE! NEITHER THE RIGHT OR LEFT HEADLIGHT PROVIDE ENOUGH LIGHT TO SAFELY OPERATE MY VEHICLE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. THIS IS A WELL KNOW ISSUE! YET, NISSAN HAS NOT ISSUED A SAFETY RECALL??? HOWEVER, THIS NISSAN MANUFACTURE WELL KNOWN SAFETY DEFECT WILL BE FIXED THROUGH NISSAN FOR THE OBSCENE COST OF APPROXIMATELY $1000. DISGUSTING, SAD, AND UNACCEPTABLE! AFTER RESEARCHING, THERE ARE MANY, MANY DRIVERS, MYSELF INCLUDED, THAT HAVE BEEN FORCED TO FILE COMPLAINTS WITH THE NHTSA. UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME, I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE HIGH AMOUNT OF CUSTOMERS HAVING TO SPEND SO MUCH MONEY TO FIX A PROBLEM NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT?? I PURCHASED NEW HIGH QUALITY REPLACEMENT BULBS, HAD HEADLIGHTS RE-AIMED, AND HAD HEADLIGHT COVERS PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED. NOTHING HELPED!! AFTER RESEARCHING, IT APPEARS THE WELL KNOW ISSUE IS A FAULTY PART ENCLOSED INSIDE OF THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. I BELIEVE IT IS CALLED A "REFLECTOR"? I HAVE WASTED $200 FOR NEW BULBS, RE-AIMING, AND HAVING LENSES CLEANED. THIS AGAIN, IS FLAT OUT DISGUSTING. HAD NISSAN INFORMED ME OF THIS DEFECT, I WOULD NOT HAVE WASTED MY TIME AND MONEY. I ALSO SUFFERED SEVERE FRUSTRATION WHEN ALL THAT I TRIED DID NOT HELP. ALL THE WHILE NISSAN KNEW I WAS WASTING MY TIME, MONEY, AND WELL BEING. PLEASE HOLD NISSAN ACCOUNTABLE. A LESS VIGILANT DRIVER MAY NOT REALIZE THE DANGEROUS SITUATION THEY ARE DRIVING IN, AND... THANK YOU NHTSA!

LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE TOO LOW. IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT. I RECENTLY HAD THE LIGHTS REPLACED AS THEY HAD BLEW OUT. THE REPLACEMENT LIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY LIGHT. WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY I OFTEN TIMES HAVE TO TURN THE LIGHTS OFF AND TURN BACK ON AS IT APPEARS TO NOT BE ON. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE LIKE THIS. 2014 VEHICLE SHOULD NOT HAVE LOW BEAM ISSUES AS THE CAR DOES.

I HAVE VERY DIM HEADLIGHTS. I'VE TRIED LED'S AND THE BEST HALOGENS. I'VE CLEANED INSIDE OF THE PROJECTORS, BUT IN A DAY OR TWO, THE PROJECTORS CLOUDS UP AGAIN. CALLED NISSAN, AND THE WOULD MAYBE GIVE 300 BUCKS AGAINST 1500 TO 1800. OR I COULD DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BRIGHTS ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO PRODUCE ADEQUATE LIGHTING. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000. *DT*JB MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED *JB

HAVE HAD JERKING AND SHUDDERING PROBLEMS WHILE TRYING TO EXCEL, SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY CAR IN 2016. AT THAT TIME IT HAD APPROX.24,000 MILES ON IT, THE DEALERSHIP TOOK CARE OF THE TRANSMISSION ISSUE. I JUST RECENTLY TOOK IT BACK AGAIN WITH THE SAME ISSUE THE CAR HAD NO POWER WHEN TRYING TO EXCEL ONTO THE HIGHWAY ,AND WAS VERY HESITANT AND UNSAFE. THE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED! THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 43,000 MILES ON IT ,WHICH LEAVES ME VERY CONCERNED, AND WITH MY WARRANTY ALMOST UP. I AM VERY CONCERNED AS I SEE THIS IS AN OBVIOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE, THAT I CONSIDER STILL NEW.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE PROGRESSIVELY GETTING MORE DIM OVER TIME. LIGHTS ARE DIM ALL THE TIME, NOT RELATED TO IDLE OR OTHER FUNCTIONS. MILEAGE IS 72. 000 MILES. NIGHT DRIVING IS HAZARDOUS. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE LIGHTING ONLY A FEW FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR, NOT ILLUMINATING TRAFFIC SIGNS, DIFFICULTY WHEN MAKING TURNS AT A CORNER OR DRIVEWAY. I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS AT NIGHT, THE HIGH BEAMS WORK FINE BUT ARE A HAZARD FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS IS NOW A SAFETY HAZARD THAT NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION.

AFTER DRIVING CAR FOR 173000 MILES WITH NO TROUBLE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO SHIFT IT,S LIKE COMPLETEFAILUREWITH ABSOLUTELY NO MOVEMENT NOW

NIGHT TIME DRIVING IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE, LOW BEAMS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD. IT'S LIKE DRIVING WITH PARKING LIGHTS ON, EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!

DISCOVERED THE INADEQUATELY POOR LOW-BEAM ILLUMINATION LEVEL IN 2017 WHEN I HAD TO REPLACE THE DRIVERS-SIDE HEADLAMP. NOTICED THE BEAM DID NOT LIGHT UP ON MY SHIRT WHEN STANDING IN FRONT OF THE CAR. THE PASSENGER SIDE LAMP DID. NOT GREATLY, BUT THERE WAS A BEAM ON MY SHIRT. REPLACED THE LOW-BEAM LAMP AGAIN AND DID BOTH SIDES AND THE PROBLEM WITH POOR ILLUMINATION CONTINUED ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. AT THIS POINT MY 2014 MODEL WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND I HAD STARTED USING MY HIGH-BEAM LIGHTS AT NIGHT AND LIVED WITH IT. THEN DISCOVERED MY CAR WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE AND DECIDED TO SUBMIT THIS NHTSA COMPLAINT.

DIM FRONT LIGHT

THIS IS THE SECOND TRANSMISSION ISSUE I'VE HAD IN LESS THAN A YEAR. THE CAR BEGAN SHAKING IN FEBRUARY AND STOPPED ON ME WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT. THERE HAVE BEEN NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS OR ANYTHING TO ALERT ME OF AN ISSUE. NOW THE CAR WILL HESITATE SEVERLY BEFORE SHIFTING GEARS. IF I TAKE THE CARE OUT OF PARK INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE, IT TAKES UPWARDS OF 30 SECONDS FOR THE CAR TO ENGAGE INTO THAT GEAR. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED AT HOME AND AT GROCERY STORES DUE TO THE FAULTY TRANSMISSION WHICH I'M NOW BEING TOLD NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE HAD TO ENDURE RANDOM MOMENTS OF SHAKING AND EVEN FEELING AS IF THE CAR HAS DIED WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. THERE HAVE BEEN NO INDICATOR LIGHTS REGARDING ANY ISSUES WITH THE CAR THE CAR IS LESS THAN 5YRS OLD AND IS A LITTLE OVER 100K MILES I HAVE BEEN HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES NOW FOR ABOUT ALMOST A YEAR.

HEADLIGHTS GRADUALLY WENT DIM OVER TIME TO POINT OF BEING UNUSABLE. NEED TO USE HIGH BEAMS. REPLACING BULBS DOES NOT HELP. SAFETY ISSUE FOR DRIVER OF THIS VEHICLE AS WELL AS OTHERS THAT GET HIT WITH HIGH BEAMS.

AT 53,000 MILES THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NO LONGER FUNCTION.TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED.AT ABOUT 130,000 MILES I NOTICE THAT WHEN HEADLIGHTS WERE ON LOW BEAM YOU COULD BARELY SEE THE ROAD AT NIGHT TIME.SO I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THI VEHICLE WHAT I FOUND OUT WAS ON NISSAN ALTIMAS MANUFACTURED BETWEEN 2013 -2015 HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.YOU DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT LIGHTING ON LOW BEAM.YOU HAVE TO USE HIGH BEAM ON DARK ROADS.THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES.I HAVE HAD THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN MY LOCAL AREA NEW PORT RICHEY PUT IN THE EXACT BULBS CAR CAME WITH FROM FACTORY SAME ISSUE POOR LIGHTING ON LOW BEAM.I THEN HAD NISSAN DEALERSHIP PUT IN BULBS THAT I PURCHASED ON LINE THESE BULBS PUT OUT 8000 LUMENS AND THESE BULBS ARE LED BULBS.THE FACTORY NISSAN BULBS PUT OUT 1200 LUMENS AND ARE HALOGEN BULBS.BOTH SETS OF BULBS I GOT SAME RESULT INSUFFIECIENT LIGHTING ON LOW BEAM.THE NISSAN TECHNICIAN TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES AT A COST OF $700.00.I FEEL THESE HEADLIGHT LENS WERE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITHOUT QUESTION THEREFORE I FEEL NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD LIABLE FOR REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE PARTS.I HAVE RECEIPTS FROM DEALERSHIP FOR WORK PERFORMED.I HAVE ALSO FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE BBB AUTOLINE DEPT, AND FILED A COMPAINT WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS.THIS IS A VERY HAZARDOUS SITUATION AND GOD FORBID SOMEONE WILL LOSE THEIR LIFE OVER SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

THE LIGHTING ON MY CAR IS EXTREMELY DIM. I USUALLY HAVE TO RIDE WITH MY BRIGHT LIGHTS ON JUST TO SEE THE ROAD. WE TRIED CHANGING THE BULBS AND IT DID NOT HELP. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE AT NIGHT YOU ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT SEE. IT HAPPENS ON EVERY ROAD EVERY DAY.

THE TRANSMISSION IS DELAYED ONCE IT GETS TO 2000 RPM AND IS NOT CHANGING OVER

BOTH LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM AND DO NOT PRODUCE ENOUGH LIGHT TO DRIVE SAFELY AT NIGHT. REPLACING THE BULBS MADE NO DIFFERENCE. HIGH BEAMS ARE OK.

THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON SHOWING THE AIRBAG FOR THE DRIVER IS NO LONGER WORKING. I THOUGHT THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT SINCE I HAVE HEARD AND READ ONLINE THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM. SAME WITH THE ENGINE LIGHT GLITCH I HAVE READ IS A COMMON PROBLEM WHICH DOESN'T ALLOW MY CAR TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY WHEN THAT LIGHT IS ON.

HEADLIGHT BULBS WORK BUT BOTH HEADLAMP ASSEMBLIES SEEM TO BE DEFECTIVE IN NOT LIGHTING UP THE ROAD. I HAVE READ THERE IS A ISSUE WITH THE BACKING IN THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLIES FAILING DUE TO HEAT FROM THE BULBS AND NOT PRODUCING PROPER LIGHTING.

MY TRANSMISSION FAILED AFTER ONLY 85,000 MILES. I WAS STOPPED AT A HIGHWAY EXIT RAMP STOP LIGHT WHEN IT FAILED.

CVT FAILED ON THE HIGHWAY WITH 90,500 MILES ON CAR. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT HIGHWAY SPEED THEN SUDDENLY SLOWED ALMOST TO A STOP. DEALER TRIED TO PERFORM THE CVT PROGRAMMING RECALL BUT SAID TRANSMISSION WAS SHOT. $4,500 TO REPLACE. ONE OWNER CAR ALL HIGHWAY MILES.

CAN'T SEE WHILE DRIVING. HEADLIGHTS AWFUL. $700 PER SIDE TO REPLACE. DEALERSHIP SAYS BEEN A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THIS AND SAW A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT STARTED ONLINE.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM.BULB REPLACEMENT DOES NOT HELP.

THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE HAS MALFUNCTIONED. IT DOES NOT STAY IN ITS NORMAL UPRIGHT POSITION. IT HANGS ABOUT A QUARTER OF THE WAY DOWN AND MOVES AROUND DURING TURNS, MAKING IT EVEN MORE OF A SAFETY HAZARD THAN IT ALREADY WAS BECAUSE IN AN ACCIDENT OR A HARD BRAKING SITUATION, THE DRIVER IS GOING TO HIT THEIR HEAD ON IT.

THERE IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE DIM HEADLIGHTS OF THIS 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA; IT SEEMS TO GET WORST AS THE CAR AGES TO THE POINT OF I CAN NO LONGER SEE AT NIGHT. OTHER DRIVERS STOP ME TO ASK IF I HAVE ON MY HEADLIGHTS. AS A RESULT, I HAVE TO CONTINUOUSLY DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS ON, WHICH COULD BE UNSAFE AND IMPACT ONCOMING DRIVER'S VISION.

COMPLAINT INVOLVING LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS VERY DANGEROUS.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS OVER A PERIOD OF TIME HAVE BECOME DIMMER AND DIMMER. WE REPLACED THE BULBS THINKING THEY WERE BURNED OUT. IT DID NOT HELP. AT NIGHT I HAVE TO RIDE WITH MY HIGH BEAMS BECAUSE I CANNOT SEE 1 FOOT IN FRONT OF MY CAR ON LOW BEAMS. IT'S LIKE DRIVING WITH THEM OFF. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE JULY 12, 2017. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED AT A STOP LIGHT. THE ENGINE REVVED, BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE DEALER (CROWN NISSAN OF DECATUR, 165 W PERSHING RD, DECATUR, IL 62526, (217) 615-1047) DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS INTERNAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER OPENED A CASE AND AGREED TO REIMBURSE THE CONTACT FOR 90% OF THE REPAIR COST. THE REPAIR WOULD CONSIST OF INSTALLING A RE-MANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION COVERED BY A 12 MONTH OR 12,000 MILE WARRANTY. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST THE MANUFACTURER BECAUSE THE RE-MANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION HAD A HISTORY OF FAILING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000. *BF UPDATE 2/20/19*JB

IN MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA THE LIGHTS HAVE DIMMED SO BAD YOU CAN BARELY SEE 2 FEET IN FRONT OF YOU AT NIGHT. IT MAKES IT VERY HAZARDOUS IN NIGHT AND RAINY CONDITIONS

THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS STUTTERING BETWEEN GEARS, HAS HESITATION, VIBRATIONS, AND DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A NISSAN DEALER ON 11/15/2017 WITH 76K MILES AND THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED TO CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. I HAD THEM CHANGE THE FLUID AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS WORSE. THE PROBLEM GOT A LITTLE BETTER, BUT NEVER WENT AWAY. IT NEVER GENERATED A CODE FOR A SPECIFIC PROBLEM, BUT THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION THINKING IT IS IN OVERDRIVE AND NOT REACTING PROPERLY. IT IS NOW A YEAR LATER AND ANOTHER 30K MILES AND THE TRANSMISSION IS STILL STUTTERING WITH VIBRATIONS AT EVERY SPEED AND EVEN ON CRUISE CONTROL.

AIRBAG INDICATOR STAYS ON ON MY DASHBOARD WHEN THE IGNITION IS TURNED ON AND EVEN AFTER THE CAR IS IN MOTION OR IS IN STILL POSITION.

LOW BEAM LIGHTS DO NOT WORK. HAD BULBS CHANGED AND IT IS NO BETTER AT ALL. WHEN YOU TURN ON LOW BEAM YOU CANNOT SEE 1 FT IN FRONT OF YOU AND HAVE TO BASICALLY STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD TILL THE ONCOMING CAR HAS PASSED. VERY, VERY DANGEROUS !!

I UNDERSTAND AND AM EXPERIENCING A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH DIM HEADLIGHTS THAT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MANY ALTIMAS. THE HEAD LIGHTS ARE SO DIM NOW THAT IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD UNDER NORMAL NIGHT DRIVING CONDITIONS, AND IT IS MAGNIFIED DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. I AM ALSO VERY CONCERNED THAT I'M NOT GOING TO SEE SOMEONE CROSSING THE ROAD WHICH I ENCOUNTERED, AND LUCKILY THE PERSON HAD REACHED THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD AS I WAS JUST ABOUT TO ENTER THE CROSSWALK! THERE IS NO QUESTION THAT THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE TO ALL DRIVERS OF ALTIMAS, THEIR PASSENGERS AND PEDESTRIANS. AS I HADN'T EXPECTED THIS PROBLEM I REALLY WASN'T PAYING ATTENTION TO IT UNTIL I READ AN ARTICLE THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE OF WHICH I AM CONFUSED AS TO WHY IT HAS NOT YET BEEN ADDRESSED. THANKS FOR ACCEPTING MY COMPLIANT.

HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM, CANNOT SEE TOO FAR AHEAD WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT

THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE BECOME VERY DIM OVER TIME. BOTH LIGHT BULBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED, BUT IT IS LIKE DRIVING WITH NO HEADLIGHTS! I OFTEN HAVE TO DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS ON SO I CAN SEE AT NIGHT! HAVING HIGH BEAMS ON IS A DANGER FOR OTHER DRIVERS. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS. THERE HAS TO BE SOME WAY TO MAKE THEM FIX THE PROBLEM. HOPEFULLY BEFORE SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED BECAUSE OF NISSAN'S NEGLIGENCE!

OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN STEADILY DETERIORATING TO THE POINT THEY HAVE BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD. THE INITIAL THOUGHT THAT THE BULBS REQUIRED REPLACEMENT; HOWEVER, THIS HAS NOT REMEDIED THE ISSUE. THE HEADLIGHT LENSES ARE NOT YELLOWED OR FOGGED OVER, AND THE HEADLIGHT BULBS ARE BRAND NEW HIGH-QUALITY HEADLIGHT LAMPS. THERE IS NO OTHER KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE HEADLIGHTS. THE HIGH BEAM WORK WITHOUT ISSUE AND IT IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT TO WHERE THE HIGH-BEAMS ARE NEEDED TO SUPPLEMENT NIGHTTIME LIGHTING IN AREAS WHERE LIOW BEAMS SHOULD BE MORE THAN SUFFICIENT. THE LOW BEAM LIGHTING IS AT THE POINT TO WHERE IT IS BECOMING A HAZARD TO ME AS THE DRIVER; BUT ALSO, IS BECOMING A HAZARD TO ONCOMING DRIVERS, AS THE USE OF HIGH-BEAM LIGHTING IS BEING USED MORE FREQUENTLY. THE BRIGHNESS OF THE LOW BEAM LIGHT DOES NOT CHANGE IF THE VEHICLE IS PARKED, STANDING, OR IN MOTION, AND THE DIM LIGHTING IS MOST HAZARDOUS WHEN DRIVING AROUND CORNERS OR ON DARK ROADS WITHOUT STREET LIGHTING. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN SEEN BY NISSAN OR A MECHANIC BECAUSE IT IS OUT OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD AND ESTIMATES TO INSPECT THE LIGHTING ISSUE BEGINS AT $80. A SIMPLE INTERNET SEARCH INDICATES THAT THIS IS A FREQUENT ISSUE, AND I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY FEEDBACK OR INFORMATION THE NHTSA MIGHT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE ON THIS AND RELATED ISSUES.

I HAVE HAD CONTINOUS TRANSMISSION SINCE I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE. I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5SL. IT WAS REPLACED IN 2015 NEW TRANSMISSION BY THE DEALERSHIP. HOWEVER, AS RECENT AS MAY I HAD TRANSMISSION ISSUES THAT RESULTED IN CVT GETTING FIXED. THEN IN JULY SIMILIAR ISSUE WHICH DEALERSHIP REPORTED THERE WAS AN UPDATE NEEDED ON MY CAR, A SELONID NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AFTER SPENDING OVER 2,000 ON MY CAR IT IS STILL NOT FIXED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS BACK ON AND NOT ABLE TO ACCELARATE ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS HAS CAUSED A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE AND IS AN ONGOING ISSUE THAT NISSAN AND THE DEALERSHIP NEED TO ADDRESS. I AM REQUESTING REIMUBURSEMENT, EXTENSION OF WARRANTY, AND FOR MY TRANSMISSION CVT TO BE FIXED AND IF FURTHER ISSUES OCCUR NISSAN NEEDS TO COMPLY WITH FIXING IT.

THE LOW BEAM ON MY NISSAN IS LOWER THAN NORMAL AND IS HARD TO SEE THE ROAD AT NIGHT. I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY DRIVE WITH THE LIGHTS ON HIGH BEAM.

HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM ARE SO DIM THAT NIGHT DRIVING IS UNSAFE. I HAVE TO USE HIGH BEAMS WHICH COULD BLIND AN ONCOMING DRIVER. NISSAN DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE ARE NO RECALLS AND THAT I COULD REPLACE THE LENS WHICH IS VERY EXPENSIVE.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. NEED TO USE HIGH BEAMS TO PROPERLY SEE THE ROAD. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY RISK FOR MYSELF, FAMILY AND OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD. I'VE READ ONLINE THAT IT IS NOT A BULB REPLACEMENT ISSUE - BUT A LIGHT PROJECTOR ISSUE WITH THE DESIGN OF THE HEADLIGHTS. A SAFETY CONCERN THAT NISSAN SHOULD BE RECALLING TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS.

I WAS DRIVING MY NISSAN ALTIMA HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP ON A BUSY STREET, SIMILAR TO A HIGHWAY AND IT KEPT STOPPING EVERYTIME I TRIED TO TAKE OFF. IT WOULD DRIVE AND TURN OFF I WOULD HAVE TO CRANK IT BACK UP AND IT WOULD DRIVE A BIT AND THEN ABRUPTLY TURN BACK OFF. I TOOK IT BACK THAT SAME DAY AND WAS ASSURED NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. THE NEXT MONTH I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT ON MY WAY TO WORK AND AS I PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN IT PULLED OFF A BIT AND JUST TURNED OFF AND WOULDN'T COME BACK ON. I LATER FOUND OUT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION. MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO RUN SINCE APRIL

TRANSMISSION ISSUES RELATED TO CVT TRANSMISSION. CAUSES CAR TO STALL OR SIGNIFICANTLY DELAY WHEN YOU PRESS THE GAS. KNOWN ISSUE BUT NISSAN WILL NOT COVER WITHOUT A 'DIAGNOSIS' WHICH IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO GET AS THE PROBLEM IS PERSISTENT BUT INTERMITTENT. WAS TOLD ONLY WAY TO FIX THE WELL KNOWN PROBLEM WITHOUT A SPECIFIC DIAGNOSIS ON MY VEHICLE IS IF THERE IS AN NTSB RECALL. GIVEN THE SIGNIFICANT RISK ASSOCIATED WITH A CAR THAT STALLS WHEN YOU ARE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC OR MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN, I WOULD LIKE THE NTSB TO BE AWARE OF THIS AND DETERMINE IF THE RISK TO THE CONSUMER OUTWEIGHS THE COST TO THE MANUFACTURER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS WITH THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ACTIVATED, THE LIGHTS FAILED TO PRODUCE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE BULBS WERE FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (AUTO LENDERS, 6201 BLACK HORSE PIKE, EGG HARBOR TWP, NJ 08234, 888-305-5968) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A MINOR ADJUSTMENT WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.

POOR VISIBILITY: WHEN SUNLIGHT OR ARTIFICIAL LIGHTS STRIKES THE WINDSHIELD AT ABOUT 40 TO 60 DEGREES, IT PREVENTS GOOD VISIBILITY, SPECIALLY WHEN ENTERING MY GARAGE. THE PROBLEM BECOMES WORSE AND UNDER RAINY-FOGGY CONDITIONS. MAKING VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AND THE SIGNS, SPITE OF USING THE WIND SHIELD WIPERS AND THE DEFOGGER TO THE MAX. I WENT TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO REPORT THIS PROBLEM; I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE WINDSHIELD. I SENT A LETTER ON 7/24/16 TO NISSAN OF NORTH AMERICA TO NOTIFY THEM OF THIS PROBLEM. NO WRITTEN RESPONSE GIVEN; A CLERK OR SECRETARY CALLED ME TO TELL ME TO TAKE THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD ME AGAIN THERE IN NOTHING WRONG WITH THE WINDSHIELD. ON AUGUST 30TH, 2016 WHILE DRIVING WITH 2 PASSENGERS, THE POOR VISIBILITY OF THE WINDSHIELD PUT US IN SERIOUS RISK OF CRASH AT AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS IMMEDIATE CORRECTION, BEFORE A FATALITY OCCURS.

WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW THE HEADLIGHTS SEEMED FINE, BUT OVER TIME I NOTICED THEY WERE GETTING DIM, AND NOW I CAN HARDLY TELL THE LOW BEAMS ARE EVEN ON, THE HIGH BEAMS SEEM TO WORK JUST FINE. SO I TRIED CHANGING THE BULBS FOR LOW BEAMS AND IT DIDN'T HELP AT ALL. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE THEY FAIL ALL TOGETHER AND SOMEONE GETS HURT OR EVEN KILLED.

TRANSMISSION IS DONE. SHUDDERING UNDER POWER AND RPMS ALL OVER THE PLACE.

THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME OF THE RECALLS. I WAS TOLD TO CONTACT THEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO GET IT CHECKED

HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM CAUSING A DRIVING AND SAFETY HAZARD. DRIVING AT NIGHT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR 4 YEARS AND WITHIN THE LAST YEAR THIS ISSUE HAS ONLY GOTTEN WORSE. I HAVE 3 KIDS ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN AFTER SCHOOL SPORTS ACTIVITIES AND AT THIS POINT I FEAR FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY.

MY 2014 NISSIAN ALTIMA WHICH I BOUGHT OFF THE DEALER LOT BRAND NEW IN 2014 HAS EXTREMELY DIM LIGHTS THAT MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WHICH IS SUPER UNSAFE BECAUSE I CANT EVEN SEE MORE THEN ABOUT A FOOT IN FRONT OF ME AND SOMETIMES I GET OFF LATE SO NOW I HAVE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND ITS IF I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE MY LIGHTS ON .

THE CAR IS 4 YEARS OLD AND SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THIS IS NOT A SAFE VEHICLE AND NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE.

I PURCHASED MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA FROM A MAJOR CAR DEALERSHIP IN TALLAHASSEE, FL. MARCH 31, 2018. THE VERY DAY I TOOK THE CAR HOME I WAS LEAVING A FAMILY MEMBER'S HOME AND IT WAS NOTICED THE HEADLIGHTS WERE EXTREMELY DIM. A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS COMPLETED AT NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN THOMASVILLE, GA. ON THE VEHICLE. THE TEST YIELDED THE PROJECTORS WERE MALFUNCTIONING. I COMMUTE IN A CAR 80 MILES (TO/FROM WORK) 5 A DAY WITH HEADLIGHTS THAT HAVE LITTLE TO ANY PROJECTION FROM THE HEAD LIGHTS WHEN I USING THE LOW BEAM LIGHTING. WHEN IT RAINS MY ABILITY TO SEE THE LINES ON THE ROAD ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE UNTIL I AM ABLE TO RETURN TO THE HIGH BEAMS. THIS IS SCARY FOR ME EACH NIGHT I AM DRIVING HOME GIVEN I AM A FEMALE DRIVING FROM WORK BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 1:00 AM AND 2:00 AM. IT WOULD SEEM THIS WOULD BE A PRIORITY TO REPAIR FOR THE SAFETY OF PERSON WHO HAVE PURCHASED THESE YEAR MODEL CAR. HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE WILL NEED TO BE PUT IN HARMS WAYS BEFORE A RECALL IS MADE TO REPAIR THIS APPARENT ISSUE?

FUEL TANK DETACHMENT OCCURS. DEFECTIVE FASTENERS. RUBBING SOUND OCCURS WHEN TURNING, BACKING UP AND HIGH SPEEDS. FIRST HAPPENED IN JULY2018...HAD FUEL TANK COMPLETELY REPLACED. NOW THERE'S A PROBLEM AGAIN.

NISSAN ALTIMA 2014, 88000 MILES. HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE CAR. VERY DANGEROUS TO BE DRIVING AT NIGHT. IT IS NOT AN ISSUE WITH THE BULBS, THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REPLACED. BRIGHTS WORK FINE.

I COMMUTE 100 MILES A DAY AND DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ONCE HEADLIGHTS ARE REQUIRED. I ALSO LIVE IN A RURAL AREA WHERE THERE IS LIMITED TO NO STREET LIGHTING. DRIVING WITH HIGH BEAMS PUTS OTHER DRIVERS AT RISK SO THIS IS NOT SAFE OPTION. NISSAN KNOWINGLY IS PUTTING DRIVERS AT RISK AS THIS PROBLEM AFFECTS 2013-2015 ALTIMA MODELS--THEY SHOULD HAVE CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. I MAY HAVE TO GET RID OF THE CAR.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING AT NIGHT AS I CANNOT SEE VERY FAR IN FRONT OF CAR UNLESS I USE HIGH BEAMS. NOTICED LAST YEAR, SEEMS TO BE EVEN WORSE NOW.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON THE DASH AND WILL NOT TURN OFF. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY STATED THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED ON THE VEHICLE RECALL LIST ALTHOUGH WE ARE ENCOUNTERING THE SAME ISSUES. THE ISSUE OCCURS WHETHER THE CAR IS STILL OR IN MOTION AND WHETHER THE SEAT IS OCCUPIED OR NOT. IT'S NOT SAFE TO HAVE A PASSENGER.

WHILE DEIVING AT NIGHT, THE LOW BEAMS /HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT AT NIGHT IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE MY HUSBAND DRIVES THE CAR BUT I DROVE IT AT NIGHT LAST NIGHT AND I NOTICED IT FOR THE FIRST TIME I THINK IT SHOULD BE BRIGHTER I HAVE TO KEEP FLASHING THE HIGH BEAMS TO MAKE SURE

ON 8/31/2018, I TOOK MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA INTO THE FRED HASS NISSAN SVC, DEPT. FOR AN OIL CHANGE, IN TOMBALL TX AND WHILE THERE, REPORTED THAT THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS REMAINING ON AFTER 7 SECONDS AND REMAINED ON ALL THE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN. THE SERVICE ADVISOR STATED THAT CODE FOUND WAS CLEARED AND NO REPAIR WAS RECOMMENDED. ON 9/5/2018, I SPOKE WITH (XXXX), SVC, MGR. AT FRED NISSAN AND INFORMED HIM THAT THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ON AGAIN. MR. (XXXX) MADE A 7AM APPOINTMENT FOR ME TO BRING MY VEHICLE TO THE SVC. DEPT., ON 9/6/2018 FOR FURTHER DIAGNOSIS AND HE WOULD CONTACT NISSAN FOR RECOMMENDATIONS. LATER ON, MR. (XXXX) INFORMED ME THAT HE HAD SPOKEN WITH SOMEONE AT NISSAN AND WAS TOLD THAT NISSAN WOULD NOT COVER THE COST OF ANY CURRENT OR FUTURE REPAIRS TO THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR SYSTEM, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. UNFORTUNATELY, THE GOLD EXTENDED WARRANTY I PURCHASED DOES NOT COVER MALFUNCTIONS OF SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG SYSTEM OR ANY OF ITS COMPONENTS. THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON UPON A COLD AND WARM START AND REMAINS ON WHILE THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN.

MY CAR WAS LOOSING POWER AND DYING WHEN PUT INTO GEAR OR SHORTLY AFTER TRYING TO GO. THOUGHT IT MAY BE A ALTERNATOR PROBLEM AS I WAS LOOSING POWER. TURNS OUT IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION. FOUND OUT THAT MY TRANSMISSION WAS REPROGRAMMED ONE YEAR AGO AND NOW IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION AND ONLY HAS 73,000 MILES. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE WHEN I PLACED THE CAR IN GEAR AND STARTED MOVING AND IT DIED ON ME CROSSING A MAJOR HIGHWAY. NO WARNING SIGNS BEFOREHAND THAT ANYTHING WAS GOING ON WITH THE CAR.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS DIM DEALER SAYS NEEDS BOTH COMPLETE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES REPLACED THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE TOO DIM TO ILLUMINATE THE STREET TO DRIVE AT NIGHT

THE LOW-BEAM LIGHTS SUDDENLY BECAME DIM. IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE AT NIGHT. THE LAMPS ARE MUCH DIMMER THAN THE DAY BEFORE.

CHANGING (OR EVEN UPGRADING) THE LIGHT BULBS HAS NOT IMPROVED NIGHT VISION. THE DIM LIGHTS ARE A SAFETY HAZARD TO THE PEOPLE IN MY CAR AND TO OTHERS ON THE STREET.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD IN THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY SUNROOF SHATTERED, SOUNDING LIKE A GUN SHOT. I HAD THE SUNROOF REPLACED SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING MY CAR IN 2014 FOR LEAKS. I HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS SINCE UNTIL TODAY (9/5/18). WE WERE TRAVELING ON US 75N NEAR COLLINS ROAD AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. I'M NOT AWARE OF ANYTHING THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THIS RANDOM OCCURRENCE.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO BAD THAT IT'S A DRIVING HAZARD WHEN DRIVING OUTSIDE OF AREAS WITH VERY GOOD STREET LIGHTING, OR ON RURAL ROADS. WITH THE HEADLIGHTS (ON LOW) YOU CAN'T SEE "ANYTHING" AND IF SOME IS WALKING, OR BIKING, ON THE ROAD (OR IF THERE IS AN ANIMAL), YOU DON'T SEE THEM UNTIL IT'S "TOO LATE". PLEASE FORCE NISSAN TO MAKE RE-CALL AND CHANGE THE HEALDIGHTS. THERE ARE SEVERAL POST ON INTERNET ABOUT IT AND IT'S CLEAR IS'S NOT A "USAGE" ISSUES, BUT JUST A BAD DESIGN/PRODUCT. I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT (YET) SO THIS PETITION IS TO PRE-POSITIVE ONE, TO AVOID THAT ACCIDENTS HAPPEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS REAR ENDED WHILE IDLING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THERE WAS EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NECK AND BACK INJURIES AND HER SPOUSE SUFFERED BACK INJURIES. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS RECEIVED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BY A LOCAL MECHANIC. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,000. *TT VEHICLE PURCHASE DATE SHOULD BE ON OR BEFORE INCIDENT DATE *JB

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN SPUTTERING AND JERKING SINCE I FIRST PURCHASED IT. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY KEPT DISMISSING ME SAYING THERE ARE NO WARNINGS DASH LIGHTS ON . THE CAR DIED IN A STORE PARKING LOT AND I HAD IT TOWED TO A LOCAL SHOP. THE CODES INDICATED A TECH SERVICE BULLETIN THAT STATES "NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION". NOW MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP IS DENYING THIS IS THE CORRECT CODE AND IT ONLY NEEDS SOME MINOR ADJUSTING. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS FOR OVER A YEAR AND NOW MY POWER TRAIN WARRANT EXPIRES IN LESS THAN 100 MILES. INITIALLY THEY AGREED WITH ME AND TOLD ME IT NEEDS THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED, BUT NOW THEY HAVE DENIED IT. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS VEHICLE. IT SPUTTERS,JERKS, HESITATES AND LOSES ACCELERATION AND IT IS SCARY TO HAVE TO DRIVE IT. I DO NOT KNOW WHERE TO GO FROM HERE.

THE CAR SUDDENLY SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. IT DID NOT RESTART RIGHT AWAY. AFTER TRYING SEVERAL TIMES THE CAR STARTED. ALSO, IT WOULD SLOW DOWN WHILE DRIVING UP HILL UNTIL THE CAR STOPPED. AFTER WAITING SEVERAL MINUTES AND FLOORING THE GAS PETAL THE CAR CONTINUED FORWARD. MY SAFETY CONCERN IS THE CAR SUDDENLY SHUTTING DOWN WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. THE CAR WAS CHECKED OUT BY A MECHANIC TODAY, HE SAID THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

IN DECEMBER 2016 WITH APPROXIMATELY 40K MILES ON ODOMETER, THE CAR STALLED AT AN INTERSECTION. AFTER STARTING AGAIN, IT STALLED EACH TIME WHILE PUTTING IT IN GEAR. AFTER A TOW TO NISSAN DEALER, THEY INFORMED ME OF A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. THEY MENTIONED REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION, BUT DECIDED TO CHANGE AN INTERNAL COMPONENT (I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT PART) TO THE TRANSMISSION INSTEAD OF THE WHOLE THING, WHICH AT THE TIME I WAS O.K. WITH BECAUSE I WASN'T PLEASED A 2 1\2 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 40K MILES WHICH I BOUGHT BRAND NEW SHOULD NEED A TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT (ESPECIALLY WASN'T PLEASED IT WOULD HAVE BEEN WITH A REBUILT ONE). IT RAN OK AFTERWARDS, BUT SOMETHING WASN'T THE SAME AS WHEN IT WAS NEW. SEVERAL TIMES I REPORTED A PROBLEM WITH THE REVS JUST BEFORE THE CAR COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP. RPM'S WOULD SPIKE AND THEN DIP DOWN LOW LIKE THE CAR WAS GOING TO STALL BEFORE LEVELING OUT AGAIN. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER COUPLE TIMES AFTERWARDS AND THEY EXPLAINED IT WAS NORMAL AND SIMILAR MODELS THEY TESTED DID THE SAME THING. FAST FORWARD TO AUGUST 2018, THE CAR NOW HAS 65K MILES AND THE PROBLEM WITH STALLING WHILE DRIVING IT HAS RE-OCCURRED. ANOTHER TOW TO DEALER AND NOW THEY SUGGEST A $4000+ TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT (WITH A REBUILT ONE). NOT A HAPPY NISSAN OWNER! HAVE READ MANY ONLINE COMPLAINTS WITH THIS YEAR AND MODEL VEHICLE (2014 NISSAN ALTIMA) WITH SAME PROBLEM. NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND DECLARE A RECALL ON THESE CARS. NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AS THEY CAN STALL OUT AT ANY TIME ENDANGERING LIVES! SOMETHING MUST BE DONE.

I LAST MONTH FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE NTHSA ABOUT MY 2014 ALTIMA'S BAD TRANSMISSION. I HAD CONTACTED NISSAN USA MULTIPLE TIMES. THEY FIRST ACKNOWLEDGED LIABILITY (EVEN THOUGH IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY) AND OFFERED TO PAY THE PART (NEW TRANSMISSION). BUT ON AUG 15, 2018, THEY CLAIMED THAT SINCE THE LOCAL DEALER "CANNOT DUPLICATE THE CONCERN", MY CAR IS "OKAY TO DRIVE", DENYING ANY RESPONSIBILITY OF ANY FUTURE ACCIDENTS OR DAMAGE. MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP NISSAN MAGUIRE DOES NOT AGREE WITH NISSAN USA. THE CAR IS NOT IN GOOD OPERABLE CONDITION. WHEN I SHIFT THE GEAR TO DRIVE, THE STEPPING ON THE GAS DOES NOT DELIVER POWER TO THE ENGINE FOR 2-3 SECONDS. SO, WHEN I STOP ON THE HILL AND PUT IT TO DRIVE, THE CAR ROLLS DOWN FOR SECONDS UNTIL IT MOVES FORWARD. BUT NISSAN USA RENOUNCED ITS LIABILITY AND REFUSED TO PROVIDE A NEW TRANSMISSION. I ASKED WHAT IF I GET INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND ALL THEY SAID IS CONTACT THEM WHEN IT HAPPENS. I THINK THEY ARE ACCOMPLICT IN MURDERING ME AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD.

LAST YEAR CVT WAS SLIPPING, DELAYED ACCELERATION WHEN AT A STOP LIGHT THEN TRYING TO DRIVE, THEY UPDATED SOFTWARE. SAME THING HAPPENED OUT OF NOWHERE THE OTHER DAY. NO PRIOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES AND THE CAR HAD DELAYED ACCELERATION TWICE WHEN I STOPPED AT LIGHTS, THEN MINUTES LATER I TURN ONTO A BUSY STREET AND THE CVT TRANSMISSION SLIPPED, CAUSING MY CAR TO REV UP TO 4RPM BUT BARELY GO 20 MPH. BEING TOLD BY NISSAN THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. ONLY HAS 82000 MILES. NO PRIOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES.

I WAS COMPLETELY STOPPED A BUSY INTERSECTION WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. WITH NO WARNING THE CAR JERKED FORWARD. THE FORCE OF THE JERKING MOTION WAS SO GREAT THAT I INITIALLY THOUGHT I WAS REAR ENDED. THE CAR STARTED SPUTTERING LIKE IT WAS GOING TO SHUT OFF, I HAD CARS IN FRONT AND BACK OF ME AND HAD NO WHERE TO GO. I SHIFTED THE CAR INTO PARK TO TRY AND GIVE IT SOME GAS TO KEEP IT FROM SHUTTING OFF AND IT IMMEDIATELY SHUT DOWN. I TRIED STARTING THE CAR AGAIN AND IT IMMEDIATELY SHUT DOWN AS SOON AS I TRIED TO SHIFT INTO DRIVE. I DID THIS MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE CAR KEPT SHUTTING DOWN. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO KEEP MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THE GAS AT THE SAME TIME AND KEEP THE CAR RUNNING. I MADE IT TO WORK THANKFULLY I WAS ONLY TWO BLOCKS AWAY AND HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED BACK HOME. I WAS SHAKING AND SCARED TO DEATH. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED!! I LATER FOUND OUT THE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILED AND WILL COST APROX $4000! THIS CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH AND READING ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS CAR AND THE TRANSMISSION.. I AM SHOCKED THAT NISSAN IS STILL ALLOWED TO CONTINUE WITH THIS "DEATH TRAP" OF A CAR! SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT IN THIS CAR!!

WHILE BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, I NOTICE THE STEERING WHEEL WAS STIFF. I COULD NOT STEER THE CAR PROPERLY. I HAD TO KEEP A TIGHT GRIP ON THE STEERING WHEEL WHILE EXITING ONTO THE STREET. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL IN VARIOUS DIRECTIONS, THE STIFFNESS IN THE STEERING WHEEL COULD BE FELT WITH EACH TURNING OF THE WHEEL. WHILE DRIVING AND PREPARING TO STOP, THE STEERING WHILE WOULD ALMOST LOCK CAUSING THE CAR TO DRIFT. I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND HELD TIGHTLY ON THE STEERING WHEEL.

IN AUGUST OF 2017 MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA'S TORQUE CONVERTER FRAGMENTED PIECES OF ITSELF INTO MY TRANSMISSION FLUID. THIS RESULTED IN MY CAR TUGGING AND SHUDDERING WHILE DRIVING UNDER SPEEDS OF 30 MPH INCLUDING SLOWING DOWN AND ACCELERATING. AT A POINT MY VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHILE IN DRIVE AND I TOOK MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE SELMA NISSAN DEALERSHIP. AFTER A WEEK OF NO FINDING OF THE ISSUE IT WAS BROUGHT TO FRESNO LITHIA WITH THE SAME RESULT OF NO FINDING OF THE ISSUE. A YEAR LATER THE VEHICLE PRODUCED THE SAME PROBLEMS AND AGAIN THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHILE IN DRIVE AND I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE FRESNO LITHIA DEALERSHIP FOR A FULL INSPECTION AGAIN. UPON FURTHER IDENTIFICATION THEY NOTED THAT THIS HAS BECOME A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2013 & 2014 NISSAN ALTIMAS AS THE TORQUE CONVERTER WILL BECOME STUCK AND WHILE SHIFTING AND FORCE THE VEHICLE TO STALL AND SHUT OFF. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND YET I HAD TO PAY FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION FOR MY VEHICLE. I'VE CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE AT (615) 725-7154 AND THEY INFORMED ME THEY DO NOT CONDUCT RECALLS. I SEE THAT IF THIS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM IS SO COMMON WHY IS IT NOT ON A RECALL AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS FIX ON MY 4 YEAR OLD CAR. I'M A MARINE VETERAN WITH A 2 MONTH OLD BABY AND $3500 FOR A TRANSMISSION IS NOT CHEAP FOR ME IN MY POSITION. I DO HAVE DOCUMENTATION FROM 3 DEALERSHIPS NOTING I BROUGH IN MY VEHICLE WITH THE OCCURRING PROBLEM DATING BACK A YEAR AGO. I ALSO HAVE PRINTED DOCUMENTATION OF MY NEW TRANSMISSION FOR MY VEHICLE AND POSITIVE TEST RESULT OF MY VEHICLE PERFORMING 4 OUT OF 10 TIMES OF VEHICLE SHUDDERING AND TURNING OFF. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE SWEPT UNDER THE RUG BY NISSAN AS THEY MIGHT FEAR A RECALL OF THEIR VEHICLES.

LAST WEEK (JULY 19, 2018) MY FAMILY WAS ON A TRIP BACK FROM NYC TO ITHACA. WHEN WE ARRIVED IN THE ITHACA AREA AND STOPPED THE CAR AT A RED LIGHT, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. WE WERE ABLE TO PUSH THE ENGINE BUTTON AGAIN TO RESTART THE CAR. SO, I THOUGHT IT WAS NOT A BIG DEAL. TWO DAYS LATER, THE ENGINE TURNED OFF AT A RED LIGHT ON THE ROAD AND IT DID NOT MOVE. CARS BEHIND ME KEPT HONKING AND MY DAUGHTER CRIED IN HORROR. THE ENGINE WAS IGNITED WHEN I PUSH THE ENGINE BUTTON AND THE SHIFT IS IN PARK. BUT AS SOON AS I PUT IT IN DRIVE, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AGAIN. THEN I HAD TO PUT IT IN PARK, PUSHED THE ENGINE BUTTON, IT WAS TURNED ON. WHEN I PUT IT BACK TO DRIVE, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS FOR A FEW MINUTES, I WAS ABLE TO KEEP THE ENGINE ALIVE IN DRIVE AND DROVE THE CAR, AND PARKED THE CAR IN FRONT OF THE DEALERSHIP. I BARELY MANAGED TO DO THAT. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I REALIZED THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE.

WHEN STARTING VEHICLE AND ATTEMPTING TO MOVE GEAR SHIFTER INTO A DIFFERENT GEAR FROM PARK, GEAR SHIFTER WON'T MOVE. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES IS WHEN IT'LL WORK. FOOT IS PRESSED ON BRAKE.

TAKATA RECALL

STARTED HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AROUND 50,000 MILES BUT NISSAN REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING SAYING NOTHING WAS WRONG, MECHANICS AT NISSAN DEALERSHIPS SAID THERE WAS DEFINITELY PROBLEMS WITH IT, AT 83,00 FILED COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN, NOTHING WAS DONE IN DEC 2016 THEY DID A REPROGRAM ON TRANSMISSION WORKED SOME BETTER NOW AT 136,000 MILES TRANSMISSION IS COMPLETELY GONE...THANKS NISSAN FOR NOTHING.

MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE GETTING DIM, BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST THE BULB GOING BAD BUT BOTH AT THE SAME TIME, TOOK OUT THE BULBS AND THEY WERE AS BRIGHT AS EVER . IN READING ON LINE , I FOUND SO MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS AND NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT THIS . I ALMOST KILLED SOMEONE LAST NIGHT BECAUSE I COULD NOT SEE THEM BECAUSE OF THE LIGHTS. UNTIL SOMEONE ACTUALLY GETS KILLED , I DON'T THINK ANYONE WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, BUT NISSAN KNOWS AND THEY WILL NOT RECALL.

I WAS NEARLY KILLED WHEN MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH 114K MILES ABRUPTLY LOST ABILITY TO ACCELERATE WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DURING MORNING RUSH HOUR COMMUTE. AFTER BEING TOWED AND INSPECTED AT THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS HIT WITH THE NEWS THAT I NEEDED A NEW CVT!! THIS IS A HUGE DANGER AS IT HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING AND THIS TECHNOLOGY NEEDS TO BE PULLED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. I ALMOST WAS!!

ELECTRO HYDRAULIC STEERING HAS FAULTY SOFTWARE. AT FREEWAY SPEEDS, YOU NEED TO CONSTANTLY ADJUST STEERING TO KEEP VEHICLE CENTERED.

THE DOUBLE SAFETY FEATURE OF PRESSING THE BREAK TO START THE CAR BECOMES VOID WHEN THE CALIPER HAS AN ISSUE EVEN WITHOUT THE BRAKE LIGHT ENGAGING TO SHOW AN ISSUE. THE CAR IS TRICKED INTO THINKING THAT THE BREAK IS BEING PRESSED AND WILL ALLOW YOU TO START IT WITH JUST PRESSING THE START BUTTON. MY 8YR OLD WAS IN THE CAR PLAYING WHILE I WAS CLEANING IT AND WAS ALSO ABLE TO PUT THE CAR IN GEAR DUE TO THE MECHANICAL SYSTEM READING THAT THE BREAK WAS ENGAGED. THE CAR ALSO CONTINUES TO RUN AFTER THE KEY IS REMOVED AND YOU CAN DRIVE OFF WITH NO KEY IN THE CAR. I

SHORTLY AFTER THE FIRST YEAR THE CAR BEGAN HESITATING AND EVENTUALLY WENT ON TO COMPLETELY CUT OFF WHILE MY FAMILY AND I WERE TRAVELING. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. I DIDN'T HAVE THAT PARTICULAR PROBLEM FOR ANOTHER YEAR AFTER THE NEW TRANSMISSION. THE DEALERSHIPS WOULD ALWAYS SAY THEY COULD NOT SUPPLICATE MY CONCERN. THE PROBLEM PERSISTING. I'M AFRAID TO PULL OUT IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE IT STALLS, JERKS OR HESITATES. I WON'T ALLOW MY CHILDREN TO DRIVE IT BECAUSE IT IS JUST TOO DANGEROUS. BOTH MY HUSBAND AND I HAVE PAID TAKEN IT FOR DIAGNOSIS THE PAST 6 MONTHS. I'M TAKING IT YET AGAIN TOMORROW. I CANNOT FIGURE OUT THE PATTERN. IT SEEMS TO BE WORSE ONCE PAUSING AFTER A LONG DRIVE > 50 MILES. WHILE TRAVELING THIS WEEKEND, I PAUSED AT THE HIGHWAY OFF-RAMP AND IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE BEYOND 15 MPH. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THIS TIME. I PULLED OVER AND CUT THE CAR OFF. IT DID FINALLY GO BUT THE RMPS STILL IDLED HIGHLY. THERE ARE SOME DAYS THE PROBLEM ISN'T PREVALENT AND THE DRIVE SEEMS SMOOTH. THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT SO DANGEROUS. I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THERE'S NO TRAFFIC BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO TURN OR PULL INTO TRAFFIC.

WHEN TRYING TO START THE VEHICLE IT TAKES 3 OR 4 TIMES TO TURN OVER AND START I KNOW IT IS NOT THE BATTERY JUST GOT A NEW BATTERY WITH 60 MONTH WARRANTY.

THE DRIVER SIDE COIL SPRING, WHICH IS PART OF THE FRONT SUSPENSION, BROKE. THIS PART USES ALMOST 3/8 INCH STEEL, AND WHEN IT BREAKS UNDER COMPRESSION, CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE, AND POTENTIAL VEHICLE STABILITY ISSUES ON THE HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLE INVOLVED IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD WITH 44000 MILES, WHICH IS NOT MUCH MILEAGE ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS PART SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED AND IS CONSIDERED A DEFECT IN MY OPINION. WE WERE FORTUNATE THAT OUR VEHICLE WAS LOCAL, AND NOT ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THERE WAS NO TIRE DAMAGE WHEN THE SPRING SNAPPED. WE HAD A MECHANIC REPLACE THE SPRING WITHIN THE WEEK.

I WAS DRIVING ON A ROAD GOING APPX 35 MPH. STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, AND MY ENGINE SHUT OFF AND MY CAR DRIFTED. THE BRAKES WOULDNT EVEN WORK. MY RADIO AND LIGHTS REMAINED FUNCTIONAL. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT AND WHEN I PUT IT IN DRIVE OR REVERSE, IT SHUT DOWN AGAIN. THE ENGINE ONLY STAYED ON IN NEUTRAL OR PARK.

THE PASSENGER TIE ROD BECAME DISCONNECTED AT THE POINT WHERE THE INNER AND OUTER WERE BOLTED TOGETHER. BECAUSE I WAS STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AT 2:00 AM SATURDAY MORNING I NEEDED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP. THE OWNER WAS SURPRISED THAT I WAS NEEDING REPLACEMENT ON A 2014. AFTER INSPECTING THE VEHICLE HE FOUND THAT THE BOLT WAS NOT SECURED AND BOLTED ALL THE WAY DOWN. BOTH SIDES NEED REPLACEMENT ALTHOUGH I CAN ONLY AFFORD TO FIX ONE SIDE NOW. HE DID EXPLAIN IT WAS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ASAP. HE BELIEVED IT CAME THIS WAY FROM THE MANUFACTURER, BECAUSE TIE RODS LAST MUCH LONGER THAN 3-4 YEARS. I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET MAKING A LEFT HAND U TURN AT ABOUT 5 MILLED AN HOUR WHEN MY CAR CAME TO A STOP. THOUGHT MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. GOT OUT AT LOOKED AT MY FRONT TIRE THAT WAS TURNED TO THE LEFT AND COULD SEE THE TIE ROD SEPARATED.

MY CAR HAS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM WHERE IT JUDDERS, SHAKES, VIBRATES, AND AT TIMES CUTS OFF. AFTER SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH MULTIPLE VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGNS. NISSAN HAS REFUSED TO HONOR THE FREE SERVICE CAMPAIGNS AND JUST WANTS ME TO PAY $4000 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. THIS NEW OF A CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE ISSUES. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING WHICH IS DANGEROUS, IT HAS TURNED OFF WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL DEALER (WOOD MOTOR COMPANY, 600 US-62, HARRISON, AR 72601) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,000.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ALL OF A SUDDEN WENT SO DIM TONIGHT DRIVING ON HIGHWAY...I ALMOST WRECKED 3 TIMES...IT IS LIKE DRIVING WITH NO HEADLIGHTS AT ALL....I EVEN STOPPED AT STORE TO CHECK IF THEY WERE ON. YES THEY WERE ON. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.

WHEN IN TRAFFIC COMING TO A STOP THE ENGINE WILL DIE. IT WILL RESTART OK BUT USUALLY DIES AS SOON AS PLACED IN REVERSE OR DRIVE. DEALER SAYS THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS DEFECTIVE AND IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.

LOW BEAMS ON HEADLIGHTS NO LONGER LIGHT UP ENOUGH TO SAFELY DRIVE ABOVE 25 MPH. THEY HAVE PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE OVER TIME. IT IS A KNOW FACT THAT THE FILM INSIDE THE PROJECTOR LENS IS FAILING, BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. HOW MANY ACCIDENTS OR EVEN DEATHS NEED TO OCCUR BEFORE THIS WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF. MY CAR ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES ON IT, SO IT WOULD BE CONSIDERED A LOW MILEAGE VEHICLE.

THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AT AROUND 25,000 MILES WHICH THEY TOLD US TWICE BEFORE FINALLY REPLACING THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. THE CAR WOULD ROLL WHILE IN PARK AND STALL AFTER TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED NO ISSUES UNTIL NOW. AROUND 68,000 MILES THE CAR NOW HAS A SLIGHT HESITATION AND WILL STALL. TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND A CODE OF P0776 WAS THROWN. SERVICE IN FINE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON AND STILL ISN'T ON. TALKED TO A FEW SHOPS AND THEY ALL TOLD ME THIS IS THE THIRD MOST LOOKED UP CODE FOR NISSAN. NISSAN WARRANTY IS ONLY 1 YEAR AND 12,000 MILES ON THEIR TRANSMISSION. THAT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME EITHER WITH SUCH A SHORT MONTH AND MILEAGE AS WELL. NOW WE ARE HAVING TO POSSIBLY BUY ANOTHER TRANSMISSION FOR A CAR WITH ONLY 68,000 MILES WITH A PRETTY MUCH NEW TRANSMISSION. HOW DOES A TRANSMISSION GO OUT WITH ONLY 43,000 MILES ON IT. WITH THE ISSUES NOW THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN. TO SUM IT UP THE GAS PEDAL HAD TO BE PUSHED TO THE FLOOR TO GET TO 70 MILES AN HOUR WHILE ON THE GA400.

I STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE ABOUT A YEAR AGO. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR SEEM TO NOT CHANGE GEARS. I HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART IT WHICH MADE THE VEHICLE TO WHAT I CALL "RESET". THIS DID NOT HAPPEN AGAIN UNTIL MONTHS LATER. NOW MY VEHICLE FROM TIME TO TIME, WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE SEEM AS IF IT WILL NOT GO WHEN I ACCELERATE FROM A STOP IN TRAFFIC. I THOUGHT IT NEED TRANSMISSION FLUID. I DISCOVERED THAT IT REQUIES CTV TRANSMISSION FLUID AND CAN ONLY BE DONE AT A DEALERSHIP WHICH WAS NOT TRUE. MY LOCAL CERTIFIED TRANSMISSION REPAIR CENTER SAID THEY COULD PERFORM A DIAGNOSTIC FOR $99, WHICH WE DID. WE ARE NOW BEING TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM ON MOST OF THE NISSAN ALTIMA'S. REPLACEMENT WOULD COST ABOUT $4,800. WHY HASN'T NISSAN RECALLED THESE VEHICLES AFTER SO MANY COMPLAINTS?

TOOK CAR IN FOR CVT RECALL ON 3/12/2018 , CAR WAS FINE BEFORE THE RECALL UPDATE WAS DONE, WHEN I PICK THE CAR UP IT VIBRATES ON ACCELERATION AND GOING DOWN HILLS WITH A LOCKING MOTION , THE CAR WAS DRIVING PERFECT UNTIL THEY DID THE RECALL UPDATE , DEALER CAN'T EXPLAIN WHY THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS AFTER RECALL OF CVT, CLEARLY IT CAUSE A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AFTER RECALL IS IMPLEMENTED

THE HOOD POPPED OPEN AND FLEW UP WHILE DRIVING, DAMAGE TO THE FENDER ON BOTH SIDES, ROOF AND HOOD. NISSAN RECALLED ALTIMAS THREE TIMES IN THE PAST TO REPAIR HOOD LATCHES THAT CAN CAUSE HOODS TO FLY OPEN HOWEVER THERE IS NO RECALL CAMPAIGN ASSOCIATED WITH ENCLOSED VIN NUMBER. DAMAGES WERE HANDLED BY INSURANCE COMPANY.

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA HAS 68,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 60 MPH, MY CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN PUSHING THE GAS. THIS WAS VERY UNSAFE. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO ACCELERATE AGAIN. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO NISSAN. THEY TOLD ME THE CVT TRANSMISSION WAS BAD AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY ALMOST $4,000 TO REPLACE IT.

THE HOOD LATCH IS DEFECTIVE-HARD TO CLOSE AND BECOMES A HAZARD IF DRIVEN-AUTOMATICALLY POPS UP WHILE VEHICLE IS MOVING

MY ENGINE IS MAKING A RADDLING NOISE EVERY TIME I ACCELERATE THEN GOES INTO AN EVEN WORSE NOISE LIKE THERE'S SOME SORT OF CRACK IN THE CASING OR A LOOSE BOLT INSIDE THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE BREAKS SQUEAK EVERY TIME I GO INTO A STOP MOTION. I'VE MADE A APPOINTMENT BEFORE WITH CARMAX BEFORE AND THEY'VE SPENT 5 HOURS IN WHICH NONE OF THE INITIAL ISSUES THAT I DROVE TO AUSTIN FOR. AND SINCE THAT APPOINTMENT NO ONE HAS ANSWERED MY CALLS TO SET UP ANOTHER AND THE TWO MAJOR ISSUES ARE JUST GETTING WORSE.

MY VEHICLE STOPPED ON THE HIGHWAY IN A BUSY EVENING TRAFFIC. FOR 10 MINUTES I WAS NOT ABLE TO DO, BUT SIT IDLE. AFTER THAT CAR STARTED BUT IT WAS JUDDERING AND SHAKING EVERY TIME I USED TO STOP AT RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. THE VIBRATIONS WERE VERY VIOLENT AND SCARY. EVEN, IN NEUTRAL, CAR ENGINE REVS UP TO 2K-3K RPM WITHOUT ACCELERATING. NISSAN COMPANY AND DEALER ARE NOT HELPING AND PUTTING MY LIFE IN DANGER AS I COULD HAVE GOT HIT BY ANOTHER CAR/ TRAILER.

BOUGHT A NEW NISSAN ALTIMA AND WE HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WITH ONLY 74,196 MILES.

THE LOW BEAM ON MY ALTIMA 2014 SV 4CY. 2.5L, IS TOTALLY INADEQUATE. THERE IS MINIMAL VISIBILITY AT NIGHT WITH LOW BEAM, CREATING A VERY HAZARDOUS PROBLEM ON THE ROADWAY. THIS IS NOT A UNIQUE PROBLEM ON MY ALTIMA, IT IS A MAJOR PROBLEM ON MOST OF THE 2013, 2014, 2015, ETC. MODELS. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A PRODUCTION PROBLEM WITH THE NISSAN ALTIMA. CHANGING BULBS TO A HIGHER QUALITY HAS NOT RESOLVED THE PROBLEM AND NISSAN DEALERSHIP HAS QUOTED APPROX. $1000.00 TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I AS WELL AS OTHERS THINK THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD RECALL AND ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM SINCE IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD..

TAKATA RECALL..... IT STATES WHEN YOU PUT THE VIN NUMBER IN THAT MY CAR WAS NOT IN THE RECALL. MY HUSBAND AND I ARE IN OUR LATE 70'S AND EARLY 80'S AND LOVE THE CAR, BUT ARE NOW AFRIAD TO DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE AIRBAGS. CAN YOU PLEASE HAVE THESE AIRBAGS REPLACED FOR OUR SAFETY. I KNOW THESE TAKATA AIRBAGS HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED, WHY WAS MY CAR NOT INCLUDED? NISSAN DEALER STATES THAT THERE IS NO, TAKATA AIRBAGS. FOR MY SAFETY AND THAT OF MY HUSBAND. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE MY AIRBAGS REPLACED AND FREE FOR CHARGE, BECAUSE OF THE HASSLE THAT I'M GOING THROUGH.

RECALL TO REPROGRAM CVT DONE 10/4/17 AT NISSAN. 12/6/17 VEHICLE BEGAN RAPIDLY DROPPING SPEED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WITHOUT ME APPLYING BRAKES. VERY DANGEROUS SINCE THERE WERE NO BRAKE LIGHTS TO ALERT OTHER VEHICLES BEHIND ME TO DECREASE SPEED. TURNED HAZARDS ON & MADE IT TO SLOW LANE, THEN SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. IT WOULDN'T GO BACK INTO DRIVE FOR 15 MINS. ONCE I COULD IT DRIVE AGAIN, IT CONTINUED TO HAVE DECREASED SPEED. AT TRAFFIC LIGHT IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE IN DRIVE & I HAD TO WAIT AWHILE BEFORE IT DID. DROVE TO MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS & THEY SAID IT SHOULD BE TAKEN TO NISSAN. HAD TO BE DRUG ONTO A FLATBED TO BE TOWED A VERY SHORT DISTANCE SINCE IT WOULD NO LONGER SHIFT INTO DRIVE, REVERSE OR NEUTRAL. SERVICE ADVISOR AT EAST CHARLOTTE NISSAN SAID IT NEEDED NEW TRANSMISSION & GAVE A $4,200 QUOTE. HE SAID THIS WAS KNOWN ISSUE WITH CVT TRANSMISSION, MANY WITH LESS THAN 30,000 MILES BUT THOSE WERE STILL UNDER MANUFACTURER WARRANTY. HAD NEW NISSAN FACTORY REMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION INSTALLED (THEY SAID IT HAD TO BE A CVT BECAUSE VEHICLE WON'T TAKE ANY OTHER TRANSMISSION) WHICH ALSO FAILED AFTER JUST ONE WEEK. THEY SHIPPED & INSTALLED ANOTHER ONE & IT HAS BEEN DOING OKAY FOR 2 WKS NOW. FORUMS SIGHT MANY DRIVERS WITH SIMILAR SYMPTOMS & DANGEROUS INCIDENTS WHILE DRIVING & SAY THE 'NEW' CVTS FAIL AGAIN WHICH HAPPENED TO ME. NISSAN SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL THIS DEFECTIVE TECHNOLOGY THAT'S DANGEROUS TO DRIVER SAFETY. NISSAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR COST OF THE RECALL AS OWNERS HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO REPLACE TRANSMISSIONS, A HUGE REPAIR. IT COST ME $3,600 AND I WILL RETAIN MY COPIES. THEY KNOW THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE TECHNOLOGY, NOT JUST IN THE ALTIMA. THEY DON'T HAVE AN ALERT ON NHTSA WEBSITE TO WARN CONSUMERS AGAINST BUYING THEIR UNSAFE VEHICLES. THIS REQUEST IS TO PREVENT FATALITIES NOT THAT AN ACCIDENT OCCURRED IN MY CASE.

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA "SL" BROKEN SEAT FRAME. THE SEAT STARTED ROCKING WHILE DRIVING. THINKING IT JUST NEEDED THE SEAT SCREWS TIGHTENED, I WAS LOOKING FOR THE SCREWS AND FOUND OUT IT WAS THE SEAT FRAME AND THIS IS NOT A UNIQUE PROBLEM BUT HAPPENS WITH NISSAN PRODUCTS. THE SEAT MAY BREAK CAUSING THE BACK SUPPORT TO UNEXPECTEDLY RECLINE WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I FOUND THIS ONLINE WHILE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT "HOW TO REPAIR NISSAN" HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/IMSVBJQGVKW .. THE PROBLEM IS NOT UNIQUE TO ALTIMA'S BUT MURANO'S AS WELL. THE ROCKING TAKES PLACE WHILE SITTING AND DRIVING. VERY NOTICEABLE WHEN BREAKING AND ACCELERATING. ALSO THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE OF THE DEFECTIVE SEAT, SEAT FRAME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS BECAME VERY DIM OVER TIME, WHICH MADE IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GILES NISSAN LAFAYETTE (6137 JOHNSTON ST, LAFAYETTE, LA 70503) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PROJECTOR LENS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO CONTACTED AND WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000. *TT *TR

A FEW MONTHS BACK I TOOK MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA, 4-CYLINDER TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR A RECALL THAT WAS IN CONNECTION WITH RECALL WITH THE SOFTWARE OF THE TRANSMISSION OF SOME SORT. I DID NOT RECEIVE NOTICE BUT WAS ADVISED OF THIS RECALL WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO NISAAN TO GET SERVICES FOR AN OIL CHANGE. THE RECALL WAS COMPLETED. SINCE HAVING THE RECALL COMPLETE MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES. AT TIMES I AM DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND THE CAR SHUDDERS AND LOSES POWER. I HAVE COME CLOSE TWICE TO AN AUTO COLLISION AS I AM SHIFTING LANES MY CAR COMPLETELY LOSES POWER AND DROPS SPEED WITHOUT MY CONTROL WITH HE RPM DROPPING DRASTICALLY BUT REGAINING WITHIN SECONDS. THE CAR JERKS AND SHUDDERS. I HAVE HAD ANOTHER FAMILY TEST AS WELL AND HAS SAID THAT THE CAR IS UNSAFE AND SOMETHING IS WRONG. I RESEARCHED AND SEE A MULTITUDE OF COMPLAINTS IDENTICAL TO MINE TO THIS PARTICULAR YEAR AND MODEL. I AM TAKING TO THE DEALER TO HAVE DIAGNOSTIC COMPLETE AND HAVE EXPLAINED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS FINE PRIOR TO THE SOFTWARE ADJUSTMENT WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THEY ARE NOT SURE IF THIS IS THE ISSUES AND POSSIBLY I WILL GET STUCK WITH PAYING WHATEVER REPAIRS. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNFAIR TO THE CONSUMER HAVING TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A TRANSMISSION DEFECT THAT THOUSANDS OF NISSAN OWNERS ARE HAVING THE ISSUES AND NOTHING SEEMS TO BE DONE TO REMEDY THIS UNSAFE VEHICLE. I WOULD LIKE INVESTIGATION TO BE DONE ON THIS AND IN THE EVENT THAT WHILE I AM DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND THIS OCCURS CAUSING AN ACCIDENT I WILL HOLD THE MANUFACTURER AT FAULT FOR ALLOWING THIS VEHICLE TO GO UN-REPAIRED FOR A FAULTY TRANSMISSION THAT THOUSANDS OF CONSUMERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT AS BEING A "LEMON OF A CAR" AND "UNSAFE." THE DATE THIS ISSUE LAST OCCURRED WITH ME DRIVING MY VEHICLE WAS AROUND 8:30A.M. ON JANUARY 5, 2018.

UNDER 50,000 MILES, CVT PROBLEM REQUIRING THE TRANSMISSION TO BE REPLACED

TAMARA RECALL- MY AIR BAG SENSORS SUPPOSEDLY HAVE BEEN REPLACED BUT I STILL OCCASIONALLY GET THE ISSUE WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN MY PASSENGER SEAT.

I'VE HAD MY SUNROOF REPLACED BACK IN 2014- 10 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY 2014 ALTIMA BECAUSE IT WAS LEAKING RAIN WATER INTO MY VEHICLE. FAST FORWARD TO NOW, IT'S STILL LEAKING WATER INTO MY VEHICLE AND NOW I'M SEEING REPORTS OF SPONTANEOUS SHATTERING OF THE SUNROOFS. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MINE SHATTERING WITH MY TODDLER IN THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, IT SURGED FORWARD AND THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL DEALER (SUPERIOR NISSAN OF CONWAY, 1090 COLLIER DRIVE, CONWAY, AR 72032), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS BEING INVESTIGATED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 41,000. *TT CONSUMER STATED SUPERIOR NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN CONWAY, ARKANSAS INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND COULD NOT GET IT TI TURN OFF. THEY SAID IT WAS SAFE, WE TRADED IN. UPDATED 8/28/18*JB

WHILE COMING TO A STOP, THE CAR SHOOK TO A STOP , ENGINE REVVED UP AND SHUT OFF.. I WAS AT A BUSY STOP LIGHT INTERSECTION. I TURNED CAR ENGINE BACK ON AND PRESS THE GAS PEDAL , THEN CAR SHUT OFF AGAIN. I TRIED ONE MORE TIME AND WAS ABLE TO STEER CAR INTO PARLOR. WE ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE CAR, HAD IT TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. THE MECHANIC HAS THE VEHICLE GOR 18 DAYS AND CANNOT GET IT TO DUPLICATE OUR PROBLEM. I GOLFED THIS PROBLEMS AND THERE IS A NATIONWIDE PROBLEM WITH CARS THAT GAVE THIS TYPE OF TRANSMISSION. THE CAR COULD SHUT DOWN AND CAUSE ACCIDENT AND WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PROVE THAT THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. PLEASE HELP, THIS IS DANGEROUS.

BOTH OF MY HEADLAMPS ARE DEFECTIVE AND NISSAN HAS RECOGNIZED THIS AS A MANUFACTURE'S DEFECT BUT HAS REFUSED TO ISSUE A RECALL. THEY ARE ONLY COVERING THE PARTS AND NOT LABOR. BY ACCEPTING TO PAY PART IS AN ADMISSION OF GUILT ON NISSAN'S PART. THE NISSAN DEALER'S MECHANIC (CORAL SPRINGS NISSAN 954-753-1700)HAS ADMITTED THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE IN THESE TYPE OF VEHICLES. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHTS WITH THE HEADLAMPS AND CAN CAUSE A VEHICULAR ACCIDENT. AN INTERNET SEARCH WILL ALSO CONFIRM THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED HESITATION WITHOUT WARNING. HAMILTON NISSAN (1929 DUAL HWY, HAGERSTOWN, MD) DIAGNOSED THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SEIZED AND THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 84,000. *TT UPDATED 9/18/18*JB

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON TODAY. TOOK MY CAR TO BAKER NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO PUT IT ON DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE. I WAS CHARGED $135. NO WORK WAS DONE SINCE I AM OUT OF WARRANTY AND EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY TOLD ME THE ENGINE WAS MISFIRING. TWO CODES APPEARED P0304 AND P0300. IN ORDER TO REPLACE 1 IGNITION COIL IT WAS $357 FOR PARTS AND LABOR. TO REPLACE ALL 4 IGNITION COILS AND SPARK PLUGS IT IS $1023.

TAKANA INFLATORS. RADIO GOES ON AND OFF WHEN I TURN IT TURNS ON AND STAYS ON FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN SHUTS OFF.

HOOD WON'T STAY LATCHED

I BOUGHT MY NISSAN SALAVAGED THE AIRBAGS LIGHT R ON

WITH PASSENGER SITTING IN PASSENGER SEAT WITH SEAT BELT ON, THE LIGHT IS ON THE DASH AT VARIOUS TIMES, WHEN IN PARK AS WELL AS WHEN DRIVING, THE AIR BAG IS OFF. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES TO REPORT THIS ISSUE, BUT IT CONTINUES TO OCCUR.

TRANSMISSION FAILURE AFTER ONLY 72,000 MILES. DEALER ESTIMATE TO REPAIR WAS $3600.

AIR BAG LIGHT WON'T TURN OFFF

TRANSMISSION "INTERNAL FAILURE" DETERMINED BY NISSAN MECHANIC ON 3 YEAR OLD ALTIMA AND NISSAN IS USING LOOPHOLE TO GET OUT OF TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. I'M OVER ON MILES SO THEY WON'T PAY FOR IT. IT'S 3 YEARS OLD! THIS CAR STALLED ON HIGHWAY 30. I WAS TOTALLY FREAKED OUT. WHEN I TRIED TO GO IT ROLLED BACKWARDS AND ALMOST HIT THE CAR BEHIND ME. CARS WERE FLYING BY ME HONKING AND PEOPLE YELLING AT ME. THIS CAR IS THREE YEARS OLD! APPARENTLY THERE ARE MANY MORE LIKE IT OUT THERE AND NISSAN IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEM! THEY WANT $4196 TO REPLACE IT OR A NEW CAR FOR MORE PAYMENT, SALES TAX AND INSURANCE. I'M RACKING UP RENTAL CAR COSTS AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $89 FOR DIAGNOSTICS WHEN I ALREADY HAD IT DONE AND TOLD THEM IT NEEDED A TRANSMISSION! THE NISSAN CONSUMER COMPLAINT LADY, THE SERVICE GUY, THE MECHANIC AND THE SALES GUY AT SUNTRUP NISSAN ALL AGREED THAT THIS TRANS MISSION SHOULD NOT HAVE GONE OUT AT 3 YEARS OLD. THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON SOME ALTIMA'S BUT NOT ON MINE! SUNTRUP NISSAN HAS MY CAR NOW. IT WILL NOT GO AT ALL. I ASKED FOR EITHER THEY PAY FOR THE TRANS OR PUT ME IN A NEW CAR AT SAME PAYMENT EVEN WITH HIGHER INSURANCE AND SALES TAX. THEY WON'T DO EITHER AND I HAVE TO PAY THE $89 DIAGNOSTICS. TERRIBLE FOR A REPEAT CUSTOMER. THIS IS MY 3RD NISSAN - 2 OF WHICH I BOUGHT FROM NISSAN SUNTRUP!

CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURE , I TOOK VERY GOOD CAR THE CAR THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP THAT I BOUGHT IT NEW FROM. I FOLLOWED ALL MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS. THE CAR IS 3 YEARS OLD AND THE TRANSMISSION JUST QUIT ON ME NO WARNING JUST DONE. IT WILL COST ME 4500$ OUT OF MY POCKET TO FIX. THE DEALERSHIP HELPED ME FILE A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN USA TO HELP. THE ANSWER FROM NISSAN WAS WE CANT HELP YOU WITH YOUR TRANSMISSION BUT WE CAN OFFER $1500 FOR A NEW NISSAN. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE THESES CVT TRANSMISSIONS ARE CONSISTENTLY FAILING ON NISSANS. AS THE CONSUMER WE ARE GETTING FINANCIALLY KILLED BY THIS. ACTION IS REQUIRED AGAINST NISSAN THEY KNOW THERE IS A ISSUE YET THEY ARE STILL ALLOWED TO SELL AND NOT STAND BEHIND A MAJOR PART OF THEIR VEHICLES. PLEASE DO SOMETHING THIS IS DANGEROUS. I COULD HAVE BEEN AT AN INTERSECTION OR IN TRAFFIC.

AM SIMPLY RESPONDING TO A SETTLEMENT NOTICE RE:" AUTO AIRBAG SETTLEMENT" TAKATA AIRBAGS INSTALLED IN MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA

"TAKATA RECALL" NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET, AND I DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO HAPPEN, SO COULD YOU PLEASE FIX THE PROBLEM. I'D RATHER BE SAFE THAN SORRY.

MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE JUST GOTTEN SUPER DIM THAT I FEEL VERY UNSAFE DRIVING AT NIGHT. I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW AND OVER TIME THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT PROJECTION DIMMED OVER TIME THAT I FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING AT NIGHT. I REPLACED THE BULB AND THAT DIDN'T WORK. I THEN UPGRADED TO LED LIGHTING AND THE LIGHTING PROJECTION IS STILL TO DIM TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. I MENTIONED IT TO MY DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND CALLED NISSAN TO REPORT THIS AND THEY SAID THEY DID NOT HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS MATTER. MY CAR HAS 72,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR OVER 2 YEARS. HEADLIGHTS DON'T LIGHT UP NO MORE THAN 15 FT WHICH IS NO GOOD WHILE DRIVING AT 55MPH.

TAKATA RECALL WHILE STOPPED ON A BUSY STREET WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN, I WAS REAR-ENDED BY A LARGE SUV. MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY AND I SUFFERED SEVERE PAIN TO MY HEAD, NECK, SHOULDERS AND BACK. MY ALTIMA WAS LATER DECLARED A TOTAL LOSS AS A RESULT OF THE ACCIDENT.

THE VEHICLE CONTAINS DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS MADE BY THE TAKATA CORPORATION.

TAKATA RECALL

ACCORDING AIR BAG CLAIM DOCUMENTS MY VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH FAULTY TAKADA AIR BANGS. NO RECALL HAS BEEN RECEIVED.

TAKATA RECALL- I NOTICED THAT SOMETIMES THE 'AIRBAG' LIGHT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WILL BE ON AND NO ONE OR ANYTHING WOULD BE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE.

TAKATA RECALL

THE AIRBAG'S LIGHT CAME ON SHOWING A DEFECT IN IT.

TAKATA RECALL

PRIOR TO TAKING MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA TO A NISSAN SERVICE CENTER FOR A SCHEDULED ROUTINE OIL & FILTER CHANGE, MY VEHICLE WAS RUNNING PERFECTLY. THE VERY NEXT DAY AFTER I HAD MY ROUTINE OIL & FILTER CHANGE ON MY VEHICLE, MY VEHICLE STARTED HESITATING IN FIRST GEAR AND IMMEDIATELY I TOOK MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE NISSAN SERVICE CENTER THE SAME DAY OF THE OCCURRENCE AND I EXPLAINED TO THE NISSAN SERVICE CENTER REPRESENTATIVE THAT MY VEHICLE STARTED HESITATING. (THE DAY AFTER I HAD A SCHEDULED ROUTINE OIL & FILTER CHANGE). WHEN THE NISSAN SERVICE CENTER DIAGNOSED MY VEHICLE I WAS TOLD MY CVT TRANSMISSION INDICATING A BAD INTERNAL SENSOR WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION AND I WOULD NEED TO PAY $3,800 DOLLARS TO REPAIR MY CVT TRANSMISSION. I EXPLAINED TO THE NISSAN SERVICE CENTER REP. MY VEHICLE WAS JUST AT THE NISSAN SERVICE CENTER YESTERDAY FOR A ROUTINE OIL & FILTER CHANGE AND THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS OR WARNING SIGNS ON MY DASHBOARD THAT WOULD INDICATE A PROBLEM WITH MY TRANSMISSION. IN ADDITION TO MY VEHICLE HESITATING IN FIRST GEAR IT ALSO APPEARED NOT TO CHANGE GEARS WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY. I TOLD THE NISSAN REP THE AMOUNT OF MONEY WANTED TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE WAS TO MUCH MONEY AND THE NISSAN REP STATED MY VEHICLE IS PASS THE WARRANTY LIMIT BECAUSE I HAVE 78,000 MILE AND MY LIMIT IS 60,000 MILES TO BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE SERVICE REP STATED THEY CAN HAVE A SALES REP CONTACT ME TO PURCHASE A NEW CAR IF I DID NOT WANT TO PAY FOR THE TRANSMISSION REPAIR. AFTER REFUSING TO HAVE MY VEHICLE REPAIRED AT THAT PRICE I PICKED UP MY VEHICLE FROM THE NISSAN SERVICE CENTER AND DROVE MY VEHICLE HOME AND IT RAN FINE WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS OR ANY INDICATION OF ANY PROBLEMS. THE VEHICLE CHANGED GEARS AND DROVE PERFECTLY. I JUST WANT TO REPORT THIS ISSUE AND TO RED FLAG THIS PROBLEM WITH MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. IF SOMEONE'S DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE PLEASE ADVISE.

ON 10/27/17, I HIT A DEER CROSSING THE ROAD HEAD ON AT 45 MPH AND NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED.

PASSENGER AIRBAG INDICATOR FAILS TO GO OFF WHEN A PASSENGER IS SITTING. NISSAN REFUSES TO ACCEPT THIS AS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE PART OF A RECALL. THERE IS NO ACCIDENT INVOLVED YET BUT IT SHOULD BE REPORTED TO HENCE THIS COMPLAINT.

NISSAN'S 2014 ALTIMA CVT TRANSMISSIONS ARE NOT SAFE AND SHOULD BE TAKEN OUT OF THE CARS. I BOUGHT MY CAR NEW IN FEBRUARY OF 2014. 1) MY FIRST TRANSMISSION DIED NOV 2016 AFTER ONLY 50K MILES. I WAS AT A RED LIGHT AND MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD, IT KEPT DYING AS SOON AS I TRIED TO ACCELERATE. THE CAR WAS STRANDED IN STREET UNTIL A TOW TRUCK CAME. 2) THE TRANSMISSION IT GOT REPLACED WITH DOES NOT DRIVE SMOOTHLY - IT JERKS, IT GOES TO HIGH RPM'S FOR NO REASON. WHEN I AM IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, IT SEEMS TO HAVE A MIND OF IT'S OWN: WHEN I AM BRAKING, I FEEL A PULL AS IF THE CAR DOES NOT WANT TO STOP. OR SOMETIMES THE ENGINE WILL FEEL LIKE IT'S REVVING HARDER THAN I NEED IT TO (UP TO 4-5K RPMS WHEN GOING UNDER 25MPH). 3) THIS TRANSMISSION HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES AT A RED LIGHT. I WILL TRY TO ACCELERATE, AND IT WON'T MOVE. IT FINALLY BEGINS TO GO AFTER 3-5 SECONDS OF STALLING. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL IT DIES COMPLETELY, AS MY PREVIOUS TRANSMISSION DID FOR THIS CAR. 4) I WAS CRUISING ON A SIDE STREET ONCE, GOING AROUND 40-45MPH, AND SUDDENLY THE RPM'S SHOOT UP TO 4-5 FOR NO REASON (USUALLY CRUISE BETWEEN 1-2). I PUT MY FOOT COMPLETELY OFF THE GAS, AND IT WOULD NOT STOP. IT FINALLY DID AFTER ABOUT 3-5 SECONDS. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR- ANYTIME I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WAITING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN, I AM WONDERING IF MY CAR IS GOING TO DIE IN THE MIDDLE OF MY TURN, AND IF I AM GOING TO GET T-BONED. I'VE COMPLAINED TO MY DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES (TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS), AND THEY ALWAYS SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. SEARCH ONLINE AND YOU WILL SEE THE MANY COMPLAINS ABOUT NISSAN'S CVT TRANSMISSION. WITH ONLY 65K MILES ON A CAR I BOUGHT NEW, WE SHOULD NOT BE HAVING TO DEAL WITH SUCH A FAULTY TRANSMISSION. AND NISSAN WON'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL IT'S TOO LATE, EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW THEIR TRANSMISSIONS ARE FAULTY.

VEHICLE WAS AT DEALER FOR OIL CHANGE, SERVICE ADVISED THAT "RECALL" CAMPAIGN PC4900 REPROGRAM TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE WAS PERFORMED. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR 6 DAYS AND 447 MILES, IT DIED WHILE SITTING COMPLETELY STILL, IDLING IN TRAFFIC (IN "DRIVE"). THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED SO VIOLENTLY WHEN IT DIED, I THOUGHT THAT I HAD BEEN REAR-ENDED. THE VEHICLE WOULD RESTART BUT DIED IMMEDIATELY UPON ANY ATTEMPT TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE. HAD IT TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER, DIAGNOSIS WAS TORQUE CONVERTER FAILURE. TOTAL TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. NEVER HAD ANY MECHANICAL ISSUES WITH THIS CAR UNTIL NOW.

MY VEHICLE WAS IMPACTED IN LEFT SIDE, AIRBAGS ONLY APPEARS IN RIGHT SIDE. PEOPLE ON LEFT SIDE GET INJURED, VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IMPACTED BY A CAR WITHOUT BREAKS. (ACCIDENT OCCURRED IN SLP, MXICO).

IN AUGUST OF 2017 I WAS ABOUT TO PARK MY ALTIMA WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT. I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE CAR AND THE CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR. EVENTUALLY, AFTER MANY ISSUES WITH A NISSAN SECURITY PLUS WARRANTY BAIT AND SWITCH ISSUE I GOT THE CVT TRANSMISSION REPLACED. I HAVE NOTICED EVEN ON THIS NEW TRANSMISSION IT STILL SHUDDERS AROUND 25 MPH FREQUENTLY.

MY BACK SEATS LEFT & RIGHT SEAT LATCHES ARE NOT CATCHING

"TAKATA RECALL" I GOT MY BRAKES DONE AT TO DIFFERENT REPAIR PLACES AND MY BRAKES ARE STILL SQUEEZING, SO I WENT BACK FOR THEM TO CHANGE MY ROTORS, BRAKES ARE STILL SQUEEZING. NOW WHEN I DRIVE I HEAR LOUD SQUEEZING AND MY BRAKES SOUNDS LIKE THEY DON'T WANT TO STOP.

MY NISSAN ALTIMA 2014 ENGINE CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE DRIVING ON VA 286 INTERSTATE 66 W EXIT TOWARD FRONT ROYAL FOR MERGING ONTO I-66 W VIRGINIA. LUCKILY I GOT OUT SAFELY. I SAW SMOKE COME UP FROM UNDER THE HOOD SO SHUT THE ENGINE OFF, SO I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE. THEN A FLAME CAME UP AND I RAN OUT OF THE CAR. WITHIN A MATTER OF SECONDS THE WHOLE CAR WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES AND IS DESTROYED 75% AND I HARDLY SAVED MY LIFE BUT LOST LAPTOP, MOBILES, BABY CAR SEAT, STROLLER AND OTHER PERSONAL STUFF. WE LOST OUR CAR WHICH COSTED US $22,000.00 EVEN ENGINE WAS UNDER 5 YEAR WARRANTY WHICH CAUSED A REASON OF FIRE BUT NISSAN IS NOT READY TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY OF ITS PRODUCT EVEN THEIR PRODUCT WILL TAKE YOUR LIFE. WE STILL OWE TO BANK FOR NISSAN ALTIMA 2014. HELP US TO COVER A TOTAL LOSS FROM NISSAN. THIS STUFF SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING!! I DO NOT HAVE GAP INSURANCE EITHER. NISSAN SHOULD GIVE US NEW CAR AS A REPLACEMENT!!!!

I HAD THE FUEL PUMP CHANGE BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD NOT START. I WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THAT IT HAS TO DO WITH AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM BECAUSE SOMEHOW ITS NOT GETTING POWER TO START MY CAR.

TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE DRIVING FROM TAMPA, FL TO CHICAGO, IL. CAR DIED IN NORMAL, IL. HAD IT TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, HAD TO GET A RENTAL CAR, WAS TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAD METAL FRAGMENTS IN IT AND THAT IT WOULD BE A WEEK TO GET A NEW ONE AND COST $4,500.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE TRUNK OF THE VEHICLE OPENED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRUNK LOCKED ON ITS OWN ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION, AND COULD NOT BE OPENED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MASSAPEQUA NISSAN IN AMITYVILLE, NEW YORK, BUT THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 248-072-49. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 28,000. UPDATED 11/06/17*LJ UPDATED 7/16/18*JB

THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLES SEEM TO BRAKE VERY EASILY BECAUSE THEY ARE MADE OF PLASTIC THAT HOLDS THE CABLE IN PLACE. I'VE BEEN ON LINE AND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS HAPPENING. IT IS A SAFETY IF YOU CAN'T GET OUT OF YOUR CAR WITHOUT ROLLING DOWN YOUR WINDOW.WHAT IF YOU WERE TO GET IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND COULD NOT GET OUT OF YOUR CAR. I HAVE LESS THEN 18000 MILES ON MY CAR I GOT THE CAR BRAN NEW. THIS PROBABLY NEEDS TO BE FIXED. THANKS [XXX] .

2014 NISSAN ALTIMA S. I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY CAR JUST STOPPED RUNNING ALMOST GOT HIT BY 2 CARS TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING WITH NO WARNINGS OF ANY KIND LOTS OF COMPLAINT S ON THIS TRANSMISSION ON THE INTERNET. VERY DANGEROUS. WE DONT HAVE MONEY TO PAY FOR IT. ONLY 3 YEARS OLS CAR. 60 THOUSAND MILES

MY CAR SHUT OFF ABRUPTLY WHEN I WAS DRIVING IN THE HIGHWAY AND I ALMOST GOT HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. LUCKILY, IT WAS RUSH HOUR AND WE WERE ONLY GOING ABOUT 30MPH. I PUT THE CAR BACK IN PARK AND RESTARTED. ONCE RESTARTED, I GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY AND WAS AT A BUSY INTERSECTION AND I WAS THE FIRST CAR AT THE RED LIGHT. MY CAR SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION DURING RUSH HOUR. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAD CAR TOWED TO DEALER AND IT'S A COMPLETE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILURE. STILL WAITING TO SEE IF NISSAN WILL COVER THE REPLACEMENT. THE CAR HAS 37K MILES AND IS STILL UNDER THE $60K POWER TRAIN WARRANTY.

CVT SHUDDERING AND JERKING 15-35 MILES STILL AFTER REPROGRAMING AT 52K MILES AIRBAG LIGHT IS STAYES ON AFTER BEING REPROGRAM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL CHARLESTON NISSAN DEALER LOCATED AT 1714 SAVANNAH HWY, CHARLESTON, SC 29407 WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL LINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 42,000.

TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING AFTER 52K MILES

CAR PURCHASED IN AUGUST 2014 JUST BARELY 3 YEARS OLD THE AC COMPRESSOR WENT OUT IN THE CAR AT THE END OF JULY 2017. DRIVING ON THE THE HIGHWAY NO NOISE THE AC STARTED BLOWING HOT AIR. TURNED THE AIR OFF AND REACHED MY DESTINATION PARKED THE CAR AND TURNED THE AIR BACK ON STARTED OUT COOL THEN RIGHT BACK TO HOT AIR TURNED THE THERMOMETER DOWN TO 60 NO CHANGE. HAD TO DRIVE BACK HOME WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN BUT NEVER HEARD ANY STRANGE NOISES WHILE DRIVING OR WHEN PARKED. TOOK THE CAR TO MY NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND BASED ON MY DESCRIPTION ALONE THE TECH SAID IT WAS THE AC COMPRESSOR AND SAID THAT THEY HAVE BEEN HAVING A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS WITH THE AC IN THIS MODEL CAR AND QUOTED ME A PRICE OF $1300. HAD ANOTHER REPAIR TECH CHECK AND ALSO CONFIRMED THE COMPRESSOR WAS NOT WORKING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED, THIS TECH OUTSIDE OF NISSAN SAID THE SAME THING THE NISSAN TECH SAID ABOUT THIS MODEL VEHICLE HAVING AC COMPRESSOR PROBLEMS. THE CAR IS PRIMARILY DRIVEN TO WORK AND HOME WITH A FEW TRIPS WITHIN 600 MILES ROUND TRIP.

AFTER TAKING IN MY ALTIMA 2014 SV FOR A RECALL ON THE AIRBAG SENSORS, THE ISSUE DID NOT GO AWAY. THE ISSUE IS THAT THERE IS THAT ABOUT HALF THE TIMES A PASSENGER SITS NEXT TO THE DRIVER SEAT, THE AIRBAG SYSTEM DOES NOT DETECT THEM. I AM HAVING TO RESTART THE CAR FOR SECURITY PURPOSES IN CASE SOMETHING ENDS UP HAPPENING. I AM ALSO HAVING AN ISSUE WITH MY AC SYSTEM. I REPLACED THE COMPRESSOR A YEAR AGO AND IT SEEMS TO BE FAILING AGAIN. AS A SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER I CAN SAFELY SAY THAT THERE IS DEFINITELY AN ISSUE WITH THEIR SOFTWARE. I HOPE THEY CAN FIX THIS SOON. THANKS, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).?*JB

ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, THE CAR HAS LOST EXCELLERATION POWER. AFTER COMING TO A STOP, IT WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED WHILE HOLDING THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT PICKED UP SPEED. MAKING A SOUND, LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS OUT OF GEAR. EACH TIME IT HAS DONE THIS, I HAVE PULLED OVER TURNED THE CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES. AFTER RESTARTING IT SEEMS TO DRIVE FINE, UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN. HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS.

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 75 THE VEHICLE LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE.. IN HEAVY TRAFFIC,I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD,AFTER SITTING FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES I DECIDED TO TRY AGAIN AND IT STARTED UP AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE OFF THE EXIT HAD IT CHECK AND WAS TOLD THEY WAS NOT ABLE TO IDENTIFY A PROBLEM.. TOLD NISSAN SAID AT 30,000 MILES WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVER TIME WITHOUT WARNING

I HAVE A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA THAT IS NEARING THE END OF THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY; I TOOK MY CAR IN LAST WEEK FOR VEHICLE RECALLS AND EXPLAINED TO THEM THE PROBLEMS THAT I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING WITH WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE THE CVT TRANSMISSION. I EXPLAINED HOW THE CAR WILL SHUDDER BETWEEN 10-25 MPH SPONTANEOUSLY AND THAT THERE WAS NO SUREFIRE WAY TO KNOW WHAT WAS CAUSING IT OR WHEN IT WOULD HAPPEN; I EXPLAINED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN A HANDFUL OF OCCASIONS WHERE I AM AT A STOP AND PRESS ON THE GAS PEDAL TO DRIVE AND THE CAR BARELY MOVES WHICH HAS ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT ON AT LEAST TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS - ANOTHER INCIDENT THAT HAPPENS SPONTANEOUSLY; AND LASTLY, I EXPLAINED HOW THE RPM'S WILL REV AND THE TRANSMISSION WOULD STICK. THE FIRST DAY THAT NISSAN HAD MY CAR, THEY SAID IT ACTED UP, BUT THEY COULDN'T GET IT TO DO IT AGAIN AND NO CODES CAME BACK TO REVEAL THE PROBLEM. AFTER DAY 2, THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING MORE THEY COULD DO REGARDING THE ISSUES I COMPLAINED ABOUT. WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP MY CAR, THE SERVICE MANAGER JEFF THIBODEAUX SAID HE BELIEVES IT IS MY TRANSMISSION AND WANTED TO REPLACE IT,BUT HE COULDN'T BECAUSE THERE IS NO CODE COMING BACK TO SHOW THE PROBLEM AND THEY COULDN'T GET THE CAR TO ACT UP AGAIN. I EXPLAINED MY CONCERNS ABOUT DRIVING THIS CAR, THE SAFETY OF MY CHILDREN AND HOW THE WARRANTY WAS ABOUT TO EXPIRE IN LESS THAN 500 MILES; HE SAID THEY HAVE IT DOCUMENTED IN THE SYSTEM AND IF SOMETHING HAPPENS AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRES, THEY WOULD "GO TO BAT" FOR ME. I WENT A STEP FURTHER AND FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT AT NISSAN (LAST FRIDAY). TODAY, I RECEIVED A CALL FROM AMANDA, THE CASE MANAGER FOR OUR REGION (CASE NUMBER 27815853). SHE WASN'T HELPFUL; INDICATED THAT UNLESS THE PART FAILS, THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN OR WILL DO. SHE TERMINATED THE CALL WHEN I TOLD HER I WAS RECORDING HER.

PASSENGERS AIRBAG SENSOR NOT PICKING UP WHEN THERE IS A PERSON IN THE SEAT NOT ALL THE TIME BUT PERIODICALLY.

TRANSMISSION FAILED AFTER THE CAR HAD 55000 MILES. THE PROBLEM COMMENCED WITH A NOTICEABLE SHUDDER AND JERK WHEN ACCELERATING AND BRAKING. THE CAR EVENTUALLY STOPPED ACCELERATING ALL TOGETHER. TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH THIS ALTIMA MODEL. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE AFTER MAKING A TURN, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO COGGIN NISSAN ON ATLANTIC IN JACKSONVILLE (10600 ATLANTIC BLVD, JACKSONVILLE, FL 32225, TEL: 904-302-8231) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THERE WAS A TSB/MANUFACTURER COMMUNICATION NUMBER: NTB15-086D (POWER TRAIN) FOR THE REPROGRAMMING OF THE TCM. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 27315253. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED A SECOND TIME. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,801.

WHEN I DRIVE DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND I GET NEAR A 18 WHEELERS MY CAR SHAKES REALLY HAD LIKE IF THE WIND IS GOING TO PICK UP MY CAR AND FLIP IT. IT WILL ALSO DO THE SAME THING IF IT IS WINDY OUTSIDE AND I FEEL LIKE IT PUSHES MY CAR ALL OVER THE HIGHWAY AND I FEEL LIKE I'M ABOUT TO LOSE CONTROL OF MY CAR

CAR WAS GOING 34MPH AT THE POINT OF IMPACT, NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED...THIS WAS BEFORE THE RECALL OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS: HOWEVER SEVERE DAMAGE DONE TO THE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE CAR AS WELL AND NO DEPLOYMENT OF ANY AIRBAG. ...UPDATED 07/11/17 *BF *JS

ONE DAY I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN MY CAR STARTED ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN, THEN SLOWING DOWN A LOT. AT ONE POINT I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY BC THE CAR JUST WOULDN'T ACCELERATE EVEN WITH THE GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. WE STAYED THERE FOR A BIT WAITING FOR A TOW TRUCK. THE CAR DECIDED TO WORK AGAIN TO WE SPED OUT OF THERE AND MADE IT HOME. THE NEXT DAY I CONTACTED NISSAN AND TOLD THEM THE SITUATION AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION AND TO TAKE IT I. TO A DEALERSHIP TO THE CAN SO A THING THEY CALL CVT REPROGRAMMING. SO I DID THE NEXT DAY. THE TOW TRUCK CAME AND PICKED IT UP, TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SUPPOSEDLY THEY FIXED IT. SO I WENT TO GO PICK UP THE CAR, AND AT FIRST IT WAS FINE, IT WAS JERKING JUST A LITTLE BUT I FIGURED IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE REPROGRAMMING, THE CAR WAS STILL ADJUSTING. THEN I GOT TO MY FIRST STOP LIGHT AND WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN THE CAR WOULD NOT GO ANYWHERE THEN IS STARTED GOI G REALLY REALLY SLOW AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT ACCELERATED SO FAST IT WAS SCARY. I MADE IT ABOUT 10 MINS OUT WHEN I DECIDED IT NEEDED TO GO BACK BC IT WAS DEFINITELY NOT FIXED. ON THE WAY BACK I ALMOST GOT IN A TERRIFYING ACCIDENT AND ALMOST DIDN'T EVEN MAKE IT. I WAS AT A STOP SIGN WAITING TO GO ONTO A 2 WAY STREET WITH NO OTHER STOP SIGHS. THE CAR WAS DOING JUST FINE SO I WENT FOR IT AND IN THE MIDDLE OF BOTH STREETS THE CAR SLOWED DOWN QUITE AGGRESSIVELY & THERE WERE 2 CARS HEADED TAPED ME ON FULL SPEED FROM OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS. TERRIFYING. EVENTUALLY I MADE T BACK AND THE GUY HELPING ME WAS SO HELPFUL. GAVE ME A RENTAL AND EVERYTHING. THE NEXT DAY HE CALL AND SAYS I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND IT WAS GOING TO BE $3600. SO I CONTACTED CONSUMER AFFAIRS TO SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO BC IT'S NOT FAIR THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR MISTAKE. AND NOW THEY WON'T CONTACT ME BACK AND I HAVE NO ODE WHATS GOING ON WITH MY CAR.

WHILE DRIVING APPROX 65 MPH, WAS STARTLED BY LARGE BOOMING CRASH FROM ROOF OF MY CAR. UPON PULLING OVER AND EXAMINING IT WAS APPARENT THAT THE SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF A ROCK OR OTHER OBJECT HITTING THE SUNROOF, AND NO OTHER AUTOMOBILE HAD BEEN IN CLOSE ENOUGH PROXIMITY TO FLIP UP A ROCK OR OTHER OBJECT. DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED THEY HAVE HAD A HANDFUL OF OTHER PEOPLE COME IN WITH UNEXPLAINED SHATTERING OF SUNROOFS.

PURCHASED 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SL 11/5/2016 69,500 MILES FROM NISSAN DEALER BOURNE MA. CAR IN FOR D/S FRONT HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT AND TRANSMISSION REVVING RPM COMPLAINT ISSUE ON 11/10/2016 WHILE STILL UNDER 60-DAY/2500MI WARRANTY. PICKED UP VENICLE AND TOLD BY NISSAN SERVICE DEPT THAT "COULDNT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND THAT IS JUST HOW THE CVT WORKS". ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS A REPROGRAMMING SERVICE BULLETIN ISSUED BY NISSAN ON DEC 6 2016 REGARDING CVT TRANSMISSION. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. ON MAY 12, 2017 77,800 TRANSMISSION FAILS COMPLETELY WHILE IN MOTION ON A RURAL STATE ROAD AT 40MPH, SAME SYMPTOMS AS 11/10/2016 COMPLAINT WITH NO CEL OR WARNING LIGHTS ON INTERIOR DASH 165 MILES FROM HOME. CALL DEALER AND ASK THEM WHAT THEY PLAN TO DO AND TOLD "THAT IS ON YOUR DIME SINCE YOU DID NOT PURCHASE EXTENDED WARRANTY." CALL CLOSEST NISSAN DEALER SERVICE DEPT AND TOLD THEY CANNOT EVEN DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM FOR 10 BUSINESS DAYS SO CAR IS TOWED TO GARAGE OF CONTRACTOR ASSIGNED BY NISSAN SECURITY PLUS PROTECTION PLAN J&J AUTO. J&J AUTO DIAGNOSES VEHICLE AS HAVING TOTAL VALVE BODY FAILURE USING COMPUTER CODES FROM VEHICLE AND REAFFIRMING DIAGNOSIS WITH NISSAN. I AUTHORIZE A NEW NISSAN TRANSMISSION TO BE ORDERED FOR VEHICLE. CONTACT NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE AND TOLD THEY WILL NOT REIMBURSE ME FOR COSTS OF TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT AND "YOU NEED TO JUST LEAVE THE CAR AT A NISSAN SERVICE DEPT AND WE WILL LOOK INTO IT." REFUSE TO INTERVENE WITH SELLING DEALERSHIP OR MAKE A REFERRAL AND APPOINTMENT AT A DEALER SERVICE LOCATION TO HAVE CAR REPAIRED IN A TIMELY FASHION. THIS IS MONDAY MAY 14. TRANSMISSION IS REMOVED AND REPLACED AT J&J AUTO. PICK CAR UP ON MAY 26, 2016 FOLLOWING REPROGRAMMING AND FLASHING OF NEW TRANSMISSION AT NISSAN DEALER IN KEENE, NH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE AT A STOP SIGN, THE CONTACT LOOKED BOTH WAYS. UPON ACCELERATING, A TRUCK CRASHED INTO THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WITH EXTREME FORCE FOR THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. THE CURTAIN SIDE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DRIVER'S LEFT EYE WAS DAMAGED, WHICH AFFECTED THE CORNEA, AND THE DRIVER ALSO SUSTAINED BRUISING ACROSS THE CHEST AND BACK PAINS. THE FRONT PASSENGER SUSTAINED BRUISING TO THE ARMS, CHEST, AND HIPS. THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER RECEIVED MEDICAL TREATMENT. THE INSURANCE COMPANY TOWED THE VEHICLE TO A YARD. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED TO DETERMINE THE AIR BAG ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS LATER NOTIFIED OF THE CRASH. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.

WHILE DRIVING HOME LAST NIGHT APPROX 35 MPH MY HOOD FLEW OPEN AND UNLATCHED AND IMPAIRED MY WINDSHIELD SIGNIFICANTLY AND VISIBILITY DRIVING WAS EXTREMELY IMPACTED. AS IT WAS LATE IN THE EVENING THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC DIRECTLY IN FRONT OR BEHIND ME. I WAS STARTLED TO SAY THE LEAST. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY NEGOTIATE TO SHOULDER OF ROAD AND ENGAGE HAZARD LIGHTS AND RESECURE THE HOOD. I WAS ON A CITY STREET AND MOVING STRAIGHT AND NOT TURNING THE VEHICLE. I WOULD HATE TO THINK A FAR WORSE OUTCOME IN HEAVY INTERSTATE TRAFFIC AT A HIGHER SPEED.

MY CAR SHUT DOWN MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING IT TO WORK. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED TO NISSAN AND FIND A WAY TO WORK. NISSAN SAID THEY REPROGRAMMED THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND DIDNT BOTHER TO TELL ME THERE WAS A RECALL. WHEN I GOT IT BACK IT WAS WORSE THAN WHEN I TOOK IT IN THE FIRST TIME. IT IS UNPROFESSIONAL AND DANGEROUS FOR THEM NOT TO TELL ME ABOUT THE RECALL.

VEHICLE IS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA 4 CYLINDER MOTOR. IT RECENTLY HAD THE TRANSMISSION RECALL, DISGUISED AS A "CAMPAIGN" PERFORMED. IT WAS A SOFTWARE UPDATE. SINCE THEN, THE CAR UPSHIFTS WHILE DECELERATING, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STUMBLE & ALMOST STALL. IT IS SIMILAR TO THE TORQUE CONVERTER LOCKING UP & AFFECTING THE DRIVETRAIN. IF THE ENGINE STALLED, DRIVER WOULD LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE & MIGHT CRASH THE CAR. THE CAR IS IN MOTION WHEN IT HAPPENS ON A ROAD WHERE SPEEDS ARE ABOUT 50 MPH, WHICH IS ABOUT THE SPEED WE WERE DRIVING WHEN IT HAPPENED. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT OR IN MILD TURNS.

MY CVT TRANSMISSION IS HAVING MAJOR ISSUES AT THIS TIME. MY VEHICLE IS AT 84,000 MILES. I WAS DRIVING HOME THROUGH TRAFFIC, ONCE I TRIED TO ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T GO, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT TOOK OFF FAST. AFTER CONTINUING TO DRIVE IT STARTED REVVING VERY LOUD UNTIL I STOPPED AND CUT IT OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO SHIFT GEARS. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO JERK AGGRESSIVELY. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT SHE HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OIL SPARKLED AND THE OIL WAS CHANGED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE INSIDE OF THE TRANSMISSION WAS GRINDING AND WOULD BREAK AND THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER OFFERED TO BUY BACK THE VEHICLE IN GOOD FAITH HOWEVER, THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE WOULD NEED TO PAY TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS TOWARDS THE BUY BACK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 92,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE WITH A FRONT SEAT PASSENGER, THE AIR BAG SENSOR ILLUMINATED INDICATING THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WAS DEACTIVATED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 41,533.

2014 NISSAN ALTIMA S, 74,000 MILES. I SHIFTED THE CAR FROM PARK TO REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF PARKING SPACE, THE CAR SHUDDERED AND DIED. I AM VERY FORTUNATE THAT I WASN'T HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC AS THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. I HAD MY DAUGHTER STEER THE CAR WHILE I PUSHED IT OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC. I TRIED SEVERAL MORE TIMES TO PUT THE CAR IN GEAR, IT WOULD RUN FOR A FEW SECONDS AND DIE. THERE WERE NO PREVIOUS PERFORMANCE PROBLEMS AND NO ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS TO INDICATE A PROBLEM. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALER. IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH "TORQUE CONVERTER FAILURE/ NEED TO REPLACE CVT UNIT/ FOUND NO DTC'S STORED/FOUND NOT TRANNY LEAKS/ PRINTED OFF TRANNY "A" AND "B" COUNTS JUST IN CASE" I HAVE READ OTHER REPORTS OF THESE ALTIMA'S COMPLETELY FAILING IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC BECAUSE OF NISSAN'S DEFECTIVE TRANSMISSION. MY FAMILY WAS LUCKY. THE SITUATION COULD HAVE ENDED VERY BADLY IF THIS DEFECTIVE CAR HAD DIED IN TRAFFIC, CAUSING ME OR AN INNOCENT SERIOUS HARM. NOW, MY FAMILY IS FACING AN ALMOST $5000 DOLLAR REPAIR ON A THREE YEAR OLD CAR THAT I DON'T TRUST ANYMORE.

NISSAN HAS A RECALL ON THE CVT ON THE 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA, THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR SOME, BUT NOT ALL. I'VE EXPERIENCED MY VEHICLE SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING AND VERY STRONG JERKING, WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO TISCHER NISSAN IN LAUREL AND THE JERKING AND SHUTTING STOPPED AFTER THEY RESET THE CVT PER THE RECALL. HOWEVER, IT HAS STARTED AGAIN AND THEY'RE NOW STATING I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHARGES. THEY KNOW THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS PART, YET THEY WON'T BE ACCOUNTABLE. IT IS DANGEROUS AND VERY EXPENSIVE AND IT SHOULD BE THEIR RESPONSIBILITY. THIS IS MY SECOND COMPLAINT AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE.

ON 14 MARCH 2017, MY TRANSMISSION GAVE OUT WITHOUT WARNING WHILE I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 50 MILES ON THE FREEWAY. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2015 WITH ABOUT 30, 000 MILES ON IT. FROM DAY ONE, THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL AT VARIOUS TIMES BUT THE MECHANICS STATED NOTHING WAS WRONG AND NO WARMING WAS EVER ABLE TO BE FOUND. THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE HALT THROWING ME FORWARD. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE IT TO SAFETY AND GET IT TOWED TO THE DEALER MATT BOWERS NISSAN LOCATED AT 13050 INTERSTATE 10 SERVICE RD. NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA 70128. THE CONTACT NUMBER IS (504)245-5900. PRIOR TO ARRIVING, I LEARNED THE VEHICLE HAD A RECALL DEALING WITH THE TRANSMISSION BUT NOT SPECIFICALLY WITH IT STALLING AND GOING OUT. ACCORDING TO ONLINE AND THE DEALER, NISSAN RECALLED WHATS CALLED A CVT WHICH RESETS THE TRANSMISSION. EVERY LAST ONE OF THE SERVICE MEN AUTOMATICALLY KNEW THE ISSUE WHEN I TOLD THEM IT STOOPED ON THE FREEWAY. ONE GENTLEMAN EVEN STATED HE WOULDN'T EVEN PURCHASE ONE FOR HIS DAUGHTER OR HIS WIFE. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE ASSUMING NISSAN NAME WAS STILL GOOD. THERE ARE REPORTS OF TRANSMISSION GOING OUT WITH 10, AND 30 THOUSAND MILES. MY HOOD ALSO POOPED OPEN WHILE ON THE FREE AND CRACKED MY WINDSHIED A FEW WEEKS AGO. I LEARNED TODAY THERE IS A RECALL ON THE HOOD. THE BACK DOOR CAME OPEN WHILE MY GRANDKIDS WERE IN THE BACK. IT TOOK ABOUT 10 MINUTES TO GET THE REAR DOOR TO CLOSE. THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED FOR THE TRANSMISSION. THEY ARE NO BETTER THAN TOYOTA BY KEEPING THIS INFORMATION FROM THE PUBLIC. MY VEHICLE HAS 127512 MILES AND SHOULD NOT BE HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES. I PUT ALMOST 400 K ON MY IMPALA AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS STILL GOOD. PLEASE MAKE NISSAN PAY AND RECALL THIS TRANSMISSION. OFTEN TIMES CONSUMERS FAIL TO REPORT ISSUES WHICH CAUSE GREAT HARM TO OTHERS. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS IS IN YOUR DATA REGARDING THIS? PLEASE HELP ME. SINGLE MOTHER

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE PROGRESSING FROM THE REAR BRAKES, WHICH WORSENED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO ENSURE THAT THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE DEALER COMPLETED A MULTI-POINT INSPECTION, OIL CHANGE, RESURFACED THE ROTORS, AND REPLACED THE REAR BRAKE PADS. THE FAILURE RECURRED SIX MONTHS LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TO BE TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER FOR FURTHER INSPECTION THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 08/04/17*LJ *CN

FIRST TIME THIS HAPPEN I WAS AT A LIGHT AND THE CAR JUST CUT OFF. STARTED BACK UP PUT IN DRIVE STALLS OUT WHEN IN DRIVE. TOOK IT TO NISSAN AND THEY TOLD ME THE NEXT DAY IT'S THE TRANSMISSION IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. AT THIS TIME THE CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR TWO WEEKS TELLING ME THEY WAITING ON A APPROVAL FROM NISSAN TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. FINALLY I GET A CALL WITHIN THAT LAST WEEK THE CAR IS READY WHEN I GET UP TO NISSAN THEY TELL ME THAT THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPDATED AND THAT THEY DROVE THE CAR TO MAKE SURE THAT IT DIDN'T STALL OUT AGAIN AT THIS TIME THE CAR HAD AT THIS TIME MY CAR HAS 53,000 MILES WHEN ALL THIS HAPPENED NOW MY 60000 MILE WARRANTY IS UP I HAVE 63,000 MILES ON THE CAR AND IT STALLED OUT AT ME AT WORK. THE CAR STARTS UP FINE BUT AS SOON AS YOU PUT IT IN DRIVE IT MAKES A WHINING NOISE AND RUMBLING NOISE AND FINALLY GET A CUT OFF ALSO THE CAR WHEN IT DON'T STALL IT DON'T GO IN REVERSE OR DON'T DRIVE FORWARD.

AT SLOW SPEEDS, THERE IS A WHINING NOISE COMING FROM THE CAR. DEALER SAID IT IS NORMAL AS IT IS A NEW ELECTRIC STEERING PUMP AND NOT THE OLD BELT SYSTEM. THE PROBLEM IS CONTINUOUS AND HAS NOT STOPPED.

THE LIGHT INDICATING A PERSON IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT DOES NOT OPERATE ALL THE TIME. THE DEALER HAS PROGRAMED IT TWICE. THE DEALER IS FRUSTRATED AS THEY HAVE SEVERAL OTHER CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALER ASKED ME TO CONTACT NISSAN DIRECTLY WHICH I DID. I WAS TOLD TODAY BY A SPECIALISTS FROM NISSAN THAT I HAVE TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN WHEN IT IS DOING IT, I EXPLAINED IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE WITH THE DEALER. SHE INFORMED ME THIS WAS NOT ACCEPTABLE THAT I HAVE TO BRING IT IN WHEN IT IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. I GUESS SHE COULD NOT COMPREHEND THE FACT THAT IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM, MOST LIKELY DUE TO A FAULTY T PASSENGER SIDE SENSOR IN THE SEAT. THE PASSENGER WEIGHTS IS AROUND 120 POUNDS SO SHE IS HEAVY ENOUGH FOR THE SENSOR TO PICKUP HER WEIGHT. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE AIR BAG MIGHT NOT DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT. MOST OF THE TIME WHEN THE VEHICLE LIGHTS ACTS UP IS WHEN WE FIRST START OUT. THERE IS NO SET PATTERN TO CREATE THIS PROBLEM, MIGHT BE OK FOR A WEEK OR TWO THEN COULD DO IT TWO OR THREE DAYS IN A ROW AND MAYBE GO OUT BY IT SELF. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, MAYBE CLOSE TO A YEAR.

TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED ON VEHICLE AT 63000 MILES. THE CAR BEGAN JERKING AND STUTTERING WHEN IN MOTION AND ALSO WOULD NOT RESPOND TO GEAR CHANGE WHEN MOV8NG OUT OF PARK. IT WOULD JUST SIT FOR MINUTES BEFORE MOVING SLOWLY OR JUMPING VIOLENTLY WHEN SWITCHING GEARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AND STALLED SEVERAL MORE TIMES AS THE CONTACT CONTINUED TO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61,000.

RECEIVED THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V244000 UPDATE FOR OCS ERROR ON PASSENGER AIRBAG. I HAD SUBMITTED A COMPLAINT REGARDING THIS AFTER NISSAN'S PREVIOUS UPDATE DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THIS ISSUE IS STILL NOT RESOLVED. AFTER 2 MONTHS OF USE I AM SEEING THAT WHEN MY WIFE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT NOTIFYING ME THAT THERE IS NO PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT STAYS ON STILL. I CAN 'RESET' BY TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTARTING IT BUT CAN NOT BE POSITIVE THAT THE VEHICLE IS ACTUALLY 'SEEING' THE PASSENGER. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY BIG ISSUE WITH NISSAN AND WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT RESOLVED. I HAVE NOT TALKED WITH THEM SINCE WHEN I DO THE ANSWER I'VE PREVIOUSLY GOTTEN IS "WE'VE COMPLETED THE UPDATE AND DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S NOT WORKING FOR YOU" BRING IT IN AND WE'LL LOOK - TO NO AVAIL. SO I PREFER NOT TO LET THEM PLAY AROUND SINCE RESETTING THE COMPUTER DOES NOTHING.

THE CAR STEERING WHEEL PUMP MAKES A WHINING NOISE WHICH CAN BE HEARD LOUD AND CLEAR. THE NOISE IS SO IRRITATING THAT IT CAN OUT ANYONE HAVE A VERTIGO. YET TWO NISSAN DEALERSHIPS SAY THIS IS NORMAL, AND REFUSE TO ACCEPT IT. SOME ALTIMAS HAVE THE NOISE ASND SOME DO NOT. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT NISSAN (THE COMPANY) AND NISSAN DEALERSHIPS ARE COLLUDING AND DON'T WANT TO MAKE THIS EXPENSIVE RECALL. THIS WILL MAY LEAD TO DRIVERS HAVING ACCIDENTS DUE TO THE HIGHLY ANNOYING NOISE

I PURCHASED VEHICLE IN 2014 AND I HAVE HAD ALL REQUIRED MAINTENANCE PERFORMED. I'M NOT AT 71K MILES AND HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING ABRUPT JERKING WHILE DRIVING. NISSAN HAS A RECALL TO REPROGRAM THE CVT. HOWEVER, THEY OFFERED EXTENDED WARRANTIES TO FEW CUSTOMERS AND NOT ALL OF US. THIS IS AN ONGOING COMPLAINT REGARDING THE CVT AND THE ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY CONSUMERS HAVE PAID...NOT TO MENTION THE INEVITABLE SAFETY RISK. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE AND NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT ON MONDAY REGARDING THE RECALL...WHICH THEY DID NOT INFORM ME ABOUT UNTIL I CALLED ABOUT MY CAR 2 DAYS AGO. NOT TO MENTION ANOTHER RECALL FOR THE AIRBAG, THAT I FOUND OUT ABOUT ONLINE. THEY ARE NOT COMMUNICATING WITH THEIR CUSTOMERS AT ALL.

DURING DRIVING THE VEHICLE JERKS AS IF IT'S GOING TO CUT OFF. IT HAS ACTUALLY CUT OFF A FEW TIMES WHILE IN TRAFFIC. NISSAN EXTENDED THE WARRANTY OF SOME OF THE SAME VEHICLE, BUT NOT ALL...EVEN THOUGH IT'S A CONTINUOUS ISSUE. THEY SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SALE CARS THAT THEY KNOW HAVE THESE PROBLEMS, LEAVING THE CONSUMER RESPONSIBLE FOR EXPENSIVE REPAIRS. MY VEHICLE HAS 71K MILES AND I UPKEEP WITH ALL MAINTENANCE. *TR

THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE OF THE DRIVER'S DOOR ABRUPTLY STOPPED WORKING IN THE MORNING WHILE OUT RUNNING ERRANDS. I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE THEN ATTEMPTED TO EXIT BUT THE DOOR HANDLE WOULD NOT OPEN THE CAR DOOR. I FEARED I WOULD BE TRAPPED INSIDE THE CAR. I MANAGED TO CLIMB OVER THE CONSOLE AND EXIT THROUGH THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR. I HAVE SPOKEN TO A SERVICE TECH AT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND HE INFORMED ME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER NISSAN VEHICLES AS WELL. HE FURTHER STATED IT WILL COST APPROXIMATELY $1,000 OUT OF MY OWN POCKET TO REPAIR THE HANDLE. THIS IS A PRODUCT LIABILITY ISSUE WHICH CLEARLY PRESENTS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD.

PASSENGERS SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON WHEN SOMEONE IS IN THE SEAT. WE HAVE HAD IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. WE VIDEOED IT AND SHOWED IT TO THEM AND I HAVE CALLED NISSAN MISS [XXX] DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR IT. [XXX] ALSO SAID IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL AND THEY I WILL HAVE TO PAY. I JUST CHECKED THE WEB AND FOUND OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. I JUST PAID 646.00 TO GET IT FIXED AND THE LIGHT IS ON. THE LIGHT STAYS ON GOING DOWN THE ROAD HIGHWAY OR CITY DRIVING. SITTING STILL OR MOVING. OH BY THE WAY DID I MENTION MY DAUGHTERS 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. [XXX] AT NISSAN ALSO BLEW HER OFF. IS THERE ANY REMEDY TO THIS PROBLEM. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS TO MY DEALER REGARDING MY CAR IS THE 'STUTTERING OR JUTTING' OF MY VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING - AT TIMES ALMOST VIOLENTLY. THE CVT TRANSMISSION HAD BEEN REPLACED ONCE WITHIN THE FIRST 6 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP. ON DECEMBER 29, 2016 WHILE TRAVELING FROM MO TO IL, WHILE ON I-44 TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 75 MPH UPHILL WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER TO THE TRANSMISSION WOULD BE THE BEST WAY I WOULD DESCRIBE IT. THE CAR SUDDENLY STARTED REVVING TO OVER 6,000 RPMS, THE GAS PEDAL WOULD NOT REACT, IT WAS IF THE CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL AND THE GAS PEDAL WAS REVVING THE ENGINE. THE LOSS OF ABILITY TO CONTROL THE CARS SPEED WHILE GOING UPHILL ON THE EXPRESSWAY PUT US IN SERIOUS DANGER. WE WERE ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CAR WAS PUT INTO 'PARK' WE WAITED A COUPLE OF MINUTES BUT DUE TO OUR LOCATION ON THE EXPRESSWAY SHOULDER WE KNEW WE NEEDED TO GET INTO A BETTER SIGHT OF ONCOMING VEHICLES, IT SEEMED AS IF THEY DIDN'T SEE US UNTIL THEY WERE RIGHT NEAR US, MANY TRUCKS WERE UNABLE TO MOVE OVER ON SHORT NOTICE SO WHEN THEY PASTED US AT 70+ MILES THE ENTIRE CAR SHOOK. WHEN RESTARTING THE VEHICLE IT WOULD NOT ENGAGE INTO EITHER 'DRIVE' OR 'REVERSE'. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS CALLED, DUE TO HEAVY VOLUME THEY COULD NOT GET TO US FOR AT LEAST 1 1/2 HOURS, THEY DEEMED THE SITUATION DANGEROUS AND THE MISSOURI STATE HIGHWAY PATROL WAS CALLED. WHEN THEY ARRIVED APPROXIMATELY 1/2 HOUR LATER THE CAR WOULD GO INTO DRIVE, BUT WITH EXTREME JERKING AND CONSTANT REVVING OF THE ENGINE. SINCE THE CAR MOVED THEY ESCORTED US THE 1 1/2 MILE TO THE NEAREST EXIT OFF THE EXPRESSWAY, WHILE TRAVELING DOWNHILL, JUST COASTING THE CAR WOULD CONSTANTLY JERK AND THE ENGINE WAS REVVING. THE CAR WAS TOWED BACK THE 200 MILES TO OUR DEALERSHIP. THE CAR EXPERIENCED 'TRANSMISSION FAILURE' AND IS CURRENTLY HAVING THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED AGAIN. *TR

I WORK IN CAR LEASING AND ACTUALLY THINK THE INFORMATION ON THIS WEBSITE'S DATABASE IS WRONG, JUST FLAGGING THIS ISSUE. THIS VIN AND MANY OTHERS FOR OTHER ALTIMAS SAYS NO REMEDY BUT WHEN YOU GO TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY ARE ABLE TO SOLVE RECALL R1609. OTHER ALTIMA VINS WITH THIS SAME RECALL ALSO HAVE A DIFFERENT STATUS SAYING THERE IS A SOLUTION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE HOOD FLEW OPEN WITHOUT WARNING. IN ADDITION, THE HOOD PANEL WAS DAMAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V565000 (HOOD/LATCH). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000.

HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSION IN MY 2014 ALTIMA, THE SYMPTOMS ARE WHILE SITTING AT A STOP AND ENGINE IDLING AT A NORMAL RPM IN DRIVE THE CAR WILL AT RANDOM BEGIN TO LURCH FORWARD RPMS WILL FLUCTUATE AND AT TIMES ENGINE WILL DIE. AFTER THE ENGINE DIES AT TIMES RESTART IS DIFFICULT AND MAY TAKE TWO OF THREE ATTEMPTS BEFORE THE CAR (ENGINE/TRANSMISSION) WILL FUNCTION PROPERLY. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THEY CANNOT REPRODUCE THE ISSUE AND THEREFORE (THIS IS MY OPINION) THERE IS NO PROBLEM. WITH ONLY 10,000 MILES LEFT ON MY POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, I FEEL THAT NISSAN HAS PUT ME BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE, IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST NISSAN. *TR

ENGINE SHOULD'VE SHUT OFF OR GIVE WARNING SIGN THAT OIL FROM THE OIL FILLER CAME OUT ANDSPLATTERED ALL OVER ENGINE CAUSING A ENGINE FIRE WHICH COULD'VE INJURED OR KILLED SOMEONE THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE SOMEONE MUST'VE LEFT THE OIL FILLER CAP OFF OR DIDN'T TIGHTEN CAP,ALL MECHANICS TOLD ME THE CAR SHOULD'VE SHUT OFF OR WARNING LIGHT SHOULD'VE CAME ON. ALSO THE LOCATION OF OIL FILLER IS IN A BAD SPOT IT'S ON THE MIDDLE OF THE ENGINE WITH LOTS OF PLASTIC COVERS OVER ENGINE,MOST ENGINES THE OIL FILLER IS ON SIDE OF ENGINE SO OIL DOESN'T SPILL ON TOP OF ENGINE .THE ENGINE IS A 2.5 LITER ENGINE .THE ENGINE RUNS VERY HOT AND WITH ALL THE PLASTIC PARTS AND ANY OIL SPILLING IT CAN EASILY CATCH FIRE .I THINK NISSAN SHOULD INSTALL A OIL FILLER CAP SENSOR TO AVOID POTENTIAL ENGINE FIRES.CAR IS BEING REPAIRED NOW FROM INSURANCE CLAIM BUT NISSAN REFUSED TO REIMBURSE ANY FINCANCIAL OFFER OR A REPLACEMENT CAR,SINCE I BROUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW 6 MONTHS AGO .I THINK SOMEONE SHOULD INVESTIGATE THIS,A SIMPLE FIX LIKE A OIL CAP SENSOR COULD PREVENT FIRES AND SAVE LIVES

YOU ARE STILL LIST IT AS "RECALL INCOMPLETE". FOR HOOD. WHEN I CALLED I WAS INFORMED IT WAS FIXED BY PREVIOUS OWNER. SO IT SHOULD BE COMPLETED. DATE CALLED AROUND OCTOBER OR NOVEMBER 2016. 9/10/2016? SO YOU NEED TO VERIFY THIS AND MAKE CORRECTIONS ACCORDINGLY. I DON'T SEE RECALL FOR AIRBAGS FOR THIS VEHICLE.

HOOD RELEASED WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY CAUSING SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AND CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LEAVE THE ROADWAY.

NISSAN ISSUED RECALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR THAT DISENGAGES THE AIRBAG WHEN A GROWN ADULT IS SEATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. MY CAR WAS RECALLED AND "SUPPOSEDLY" FIXED, BUT TWO SEPARATE INCIDENCES HAVE OCCURRED WHERE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT INDICATING THE AIRBAG IS OFF WHEN A PERSON IS SEATED THERE HAS OCCURRED. THE ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED FULLY WITH NISSAN'S WARRANTY FIX AND NISSAN IS LOOKING INTO MY CAR FURTHER ON HOW TO FIX THE ISSUE. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND MANY OTHER INSTANCES OF THIS ISSUE OCCURRING AFTER THE SO CALLED "FIX" PERFORMED BY NISSAN. LINK BELOW: HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/NISSAN/ALTIMA/2014/SEAT_BELTS_AIR_BAGS/AIR_BAGS.SHTML THIS IS A CONSUMER SAFETY ISSUE WITH NOT HAVING A PROPERLY FUNCTIONING AIRBAG.

CVT TRANSMISSION. I WAS AT THE INTERSECTION OF PAGE AVE AND SEVEN UP DRIVE IN OVERLAND, MO, AND MY CAR STOPPED. I STARTED THE CAR BACK UP AND PARK THE CAR IN DRIVE AND IT ROLLED BACKWARDS. I PUT THE CAR BACK IN PARK, PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS, AND CALLED ROADSIDE SERVICE. MY DAUGHTER (7YRS) AND I WERE TERRIFIED. CARS WERE A FEW 100 FEET FROM HITTING US. I WAS CONSTANTLY WAVING CARS TO GO AROUND MY CAR. THE OVERLAND POLICE FINALLY ARRIVED (1 HOUR LATER) AND PUSHED MY CAR TO A SAFER LOCATION SO IT COULD BE TOWED. MY CAR WAS LATER TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED. THE DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT MY CVT (TRANSMISSION) NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

RADIO/NAVIGATION REBOOTS WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WHOLE SYSTEM SHUTS DOWN--NO RADIO. SOMETIMES WHEN I START THE CAR, THE RADIO BUTTONS ARE DIM/GRAYED OUT AND THE RADIO DOESN'T PLAY.

WINDSHIELD HAS SCRATCHES THAT MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. TOOK CAR TO DEALER TO CLAIM UNDER 3-YEAR "BUMPER-TO-BUMPER" WARRANTY & EXTENDED SERVICE CONTRACT THAT DEALER CLAIMED AT TIME OF PURCHASE WOULD COVER ALL PROBLEMS. DEALER CLAIMED THIS ISSUE IS NOT COVERED UNDER EITHER WARRANTY. WARRANTIES ARE TOTALLY BOGUS.

HAVE HAD 2 FACTORY RECALLS FOR PASS. SIDE AIRBAG NOT BEING ACTIVATED WITH PASS. IN THE SEAT. STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM SOMETIMES. THE DEALER STATED I WOULD BE CHARGED IF THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS BEEN A SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS.

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON FOR THE FOURTH TIME SINCE NEW. (TODAYS DATE 09/26/2016) THE FIRST TWO TIMES, NISSAN RESET IT AND CONVENIENTLY DIDN'T MAKE A RECORD OF IT IN THE REPAIR HISTORY WHILE IT WAS IN WARRANTY. I TOOK IT IN A FEW WEEKS AGO BECAUSE THE LIGHT WAS ON AGAIN, THEY SAID IT WAS A LOOSE CONNECTION UNDER THE SEAT CAUSED BY A BOX OF KLEENEX, WHICH I THINK IS NOT TRUE. LAST WEEK THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON AGAIN WITH NOTHING UNDER THE SEAT. THIS TIME, THEY SAID I NEED A NEW AIRBAG AT A COST OF $1100, CLAIMING I NEVER BROUGHT IT IN FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE AND THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR IT BECAUSE MY CAR NOW HAS 70K MILES ON IT, NEVER-MIND IT IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT THIS CLEAR AND OBVIOUS DEFECT CAUSES A SIGNIFICANT RISK TO THE OCCUPANTS BECAUSE IT PREVENTS ANY OF THE AIRBAGS FROM DEPLOYING IN AN ACCIDENT. I CANNOT AFFORD TO SPEND OVER $1000 ON A PART THAT SHOULD NEVER GO BAD ON A CAR THAT IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD. FYI: THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON EVERY TIME AND EVERY TIME IT CAME ON THERE WAS NOBODY IN THE BACK SEAT, NOR WAS THE SEAT BEING ADJUSTED OR WAS ANYTHING INTERFERING WITH THE PLUG, AS NISSAN TRIES TO CLAIM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, BOTH SIDES OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WERE STRUCK WHEN ANOTHER VEHICLE RAN A STOP SIGN. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THERE WERE TWO INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000. UPDATED 12/13/16*LJ

RANDOMLY THIS OCCURS, WHEN SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THE AIR BAG SIGN FOR THAT SEAT WILL SAY OFF. ON OUR LAST TRIP WE LEFT A STOP AND ENTERED THE HIGHWAY BUT THE LIGHT STAYED ON INDICATING THE AIR BAG WAS NOT ACTIVATED. WE HAD TO DRIVE LIKE THAT UNTIL WE COULD SAFELY STOP. WE THEN TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND STARTED THE CAR AGAIN, AND THIS TIME THE AIR BAG OFF LIGHT DID NOT STAY LIT. WE HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALER 6 TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. BECAUSE THEY CAN NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR IS THERE THE ONLY THING THEY SAY THEY CAN DO IS A ZERO POINT RESET ON OCS SYSTEM. THAT HAS NOT STOPPED THIS ISSUE FROM REOCCURRING. WE HAVE PHONED BERGSTROM OF OSHKOSH 5 DAYS THIS WEEK, THEY DO NOT RETURN OUR CALL. THE LAST DIAGNOSIS STATES ELECTRICAL, HOWEVER, TONY THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD US THE LAST TIME WE WERE THEIR THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO THROW MONEY AT THE CAR IT COULD BE A SENSOR, ELECTRICAL, THE AIR BAG SYSTEM OR THE SEAT. BECAUSE THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM WHEN WE ARE THERE THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO FIX, SO CHOOSE TO DO NOTHING. THE RECALL ON THE CAR WAS DONE 5/26/16. HOWEVER WE CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THE SERVICE ADVISOR HAS REPEATEDLY SAID IT IS BECAUSE THE PASSENGER IS NOT SITTING ON THE SEAT CORRECTLY, HOWEVER THE LAST TIME IT OCCURRED THE PASSENGER WAS SITTING IN THE SAME POSITION WHEN THE AIR BAG WAS OFF AS SHE WAS WHEN THE IGNITION WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED CORRECTING THE PROBLEM. OUR WARRANTY WILL RUN OUT SOON. WE PHONED NISSAN AND THEY WILL ONLY GO BY WHAT THERE AUTO TECH AT BERGSTROM TELLS THEM, SO NO HELP THERE EITHER. I HAVE COPIES OF INVOICES FROM WHEN THE CAR WAS TAKEN IN FOR THIS PROBLEM.

1) WINDSHIELD CRACKED IN THE SAME PLACE AS SEVERAL OTHER 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SL CARS. 2) 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SL NAVIGATION FREEZING UP. SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. LIGHTS ON SYSTEM ARE FLICKERING ON AND OFF. CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP SEVERAL TIMES, BUT NO FIX. 3) 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SL BACK AND TOP SPEAKERS HAVE STOPPED WORKING. 4) 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SL PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON AFTER A RECALL WAS COMPLETED. IF YOU NEED ANY OTHER INFORMATION, EMAIL ME.

HAD PROBLEMS SHIFTING CAR INTO GEAR (FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE) AND MY VEHICLE HAS HORRIBLE ACCELERATION. ONCE IT WAS GOING IT WOULD GO, BUT STOP TO STARTING WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND I HAVE AN INFANT! MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 2 WEEKS A MECHANIC AND NOW DEALERSHIP AND I AM STILL NOT IN MY VEHICLE! NISSAN NEEDS TO INFORM CONSUMERS OF FAULTY CVT TRANSMISSIONS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK AT 3 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT SHIFTED INTO PARK AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE STARTED, BUT QUICKLY SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE STARTED NORMALLY THE THIRD TIME; HOWEVER, IT SHUT OFF AGAIN WHEN APPROACHING A STOP AT LOW SPEED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED FIVE MORE TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,417.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH. THE CONTACT DID NOT RECALL THE DETAILS OF THE CRASH. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED NECK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED AND DESTROYED. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE WITH MY TODDLER IN CAR, I CAME TO STOP LIGHT, THE CAR SHUTTERED FORWARD AND THEN SHUT OFF. RESTARTED CAR AND WHEN PLACED IN GEAR, CAR IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF AGAIN. WAITED FOR 25 SECONDS AND RESTARTED CAR TO DRIVE HOME. NEXT DAY, CAR CONTINUED SAME BEHAVIOR MORE OFTEN HOWEVER IT TOOK LONGER AND LONGER TO GET THE CAR TO REMAIN ON AND I HAD TO PUT CAR IN NEUTRAL EVERY TIME I STOPPED. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND THE CAR WOULD NOT PRODUCE ANY DIAGNOSTIC CODES. THE CAR SHUT OFF WHEN THE TECH ATTEMPTED TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY ON THE FIRST TEST DRIVE. THEY ALLOWED THE CAR TO COOL AND ATTEMPTED A SECOND TEST DRIVE BUT WERE UNABLE TO GET OUT OF THE PARKING LOT. THE CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 48,900 MILES, PURCHASED WITH BRAND NEW IN 2014 AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE SENSOR FOR THE CAMSHAFT FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALERSHIP ON 12/31/13. THIS VEHICLE IS 2 YEARS OLD AND HAS APPROXIMATELY 75,000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS HAD A MINIMUM OF 2 RECALLS ON IT SINCE I HAD IT. I WOULD DRIVE THE CAR NEARLY ALL DAY (NO MORE THAN 50 MILES PER DAY) AND SUDDENLY ONCE I APPROACHED A STOP SIGN AT A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION AND WAS ABOUT TO CROSS IT, THE CAR ENGINE SHUT DOWN. I COULD HEAR THE RADIO. NOTE: MY TODDLER CHILD WAS WITH ME. I ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES BUT AS SOON AS I PUT IT IN THE DRIVE GEAR, IT WOULD SHUT OFF AGAIN. I HAD TO SIT TO THE STOP SIGN WITH TRAFFIC APPROACHING FOR NEARLY 10 MINUTES BEFORE THE CAR WOULD ALLOW ME TO START AND PUT IT IN GEAR TO DRIVE IT HOME. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, THEY COULD NOT GIVE ME A FULL DIAGNOSIS AS THEY STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE COOLED. I HAD NO WAY HOME AS I LIVE OUTSIDE OF THE DEALERSHIP'S SHUTTLE RADIUS AND WAS OFFERED A RENTAL CAR BUT I HAD TO PAY FOR IT. I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO TRUST THAT I WOULD MAKE IT BACK HOME WITH IT. I DID MAKE IT HOME BUT IT SHUT OFF IN THE YARD. I HAD IT TOWED A FEW DAYS LATER TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR FURTHER TESTING AND IT WAS REVEALED TO ME THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED. I AM BOTHERED BY THIS BECAUSE THIS IS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 100,000 MILES AND IS 2 YEARS OLD. ALSO, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A SAFETY HAZARD FOR ME AND MY CHILD AS IT COULD HAVE SHUT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION IN WHICH WE WERE CROSSING.

MY ALTIMA WAS UNDER RECALL FOR THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON DASH. HAD IT TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THE LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN SOMEONE IS IN PASSEMGER SEAT. AND WE'RE DRIVING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE UNDERCOVER SEPARATED WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH. THE CONTACT HEARD A NOISE UNDER THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE BOLTS USED TO SECURE THE ENGINE COVER WERE MADE OF DEFECTIVE PLASTIC, WHICH FAILED TO SECURE THE COVER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE ENGINE UNDERCOVER WAS NOT REPLACED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

MY CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 43,000 MILES.I'M HAVING A HARD TIME KEEPING THE CAR IN MY LANE OF TRAFFIC. THE CAR WAS PULLING HARD TO THE LEFT, REQUIRING ME TO STEER TO THE RIGHT .. CAR NEEDS TO BE CONSTANTLY CORRECTED TO STAY INSIDE THE LANE EVEN WHEN DRIVING STRAIGH. IF YOU ARE IN A CROSSWIND OR BEHIND A TRUCK, THE VEHICLE DRIFTS HORRIBLY TOO. YOU MUST HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP CORRECTING TO STAY IN YOUR LANE! I TOOK MY CAR TO DO AN ALIGNMENT TWO TIMES AND STILL THE SAME I CHANGE TIRES AND RIMS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM THERE IS ALOT OF COMPLAINS ON THE INTERNET WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.

THERE WAS RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE NHTSA RECALL 16V-244. IT WAS ABOUT THE OCS. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CREST NISSAN OF FRISCO 6600 STATE HWY 121, FRISCO, TX 75034 ON 14 JUNE 2016. ACCORDING TO THE INVOICE GIVEN TO ME BY THE DEALER THE OCS UNIT WAS REPROGRAMMED. ON 9 AUG 16 I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE SAME DEALER BECAUSE THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ON CONTINUOUSLY. BUT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE AGENT AT CREST NISSAN OF FRISCO TOLD ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, THIS LIGHT IS SUPPOSED TO STAY ON UNLESS THE PASSENGER SEAT IS OCCUPIED BY AN ADULT . OWNER'S MANUAL ON PAGE 1-57 CLEARLY MENTIONS THAT " IF THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ON AFTER APPROXIMATELY 7 SECONDS, UNDER THIS CONDITION, THE FRONT AIR BAG, SIDE AIR BAG AND CURTAIN AIR BAG OR PRETENSIONER SYSTEMS MAY NOT OPERATE PROPERLY". THE DEALER HAS NOT ONLY FAILED TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM BUT ALSO LIED TO ME ABOUT THIS TECHNICAL AND A POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS PROBLEM. IT COULD MEAN THAT THE FRONT AIR BAG, SIDE AIR BAG, CURTAIN AIR BAG AND/OR PRETENSIONER SYSTEMS WILL NOT OPERATE IN AN ACCIDENT.

I PARKED THE CAR ON A SLIGHT INCLINE, PLACED THE SHIFTER IN PARK AND STEPPED ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. I EXITED THE VEHICLE, LEFT THE DRIVER DOOR OPEN. I OPENED THE LEFT REAR DOOR, REMOVED MY DOG AND CLOSED THE DOOR. I LOOKED UP JUST IN TIME AS I WAS STRUCK BY THE OPEN FRONT DOOR OF MY CAR, KNOCKED TO THE GROUND AND IT ROLLED OVER MY LEG. IT ROLLED FOR APPROXIMATELY 30 FEET AND STRUCK A TREE.

HOOD RELEASED AND BLEW BACK INTO THE WINDSHIELD AT 30 MPH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. ALSO, THE VEHICLE HESITATED AND TOOK APPROXIMATELY FIVE SECONDS TO INCREASE IN SPEED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WERE IT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 25,000.

I RAN LOW ON WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID AND A LIGHT CAN ON NOTIFYING ME. THE NEXT DAY I NOTICED THAT THE LANE DETECTION SYSTEM AND THE CAR IN YOUR BLIND SPOT INDICATOR WAS NO WORKING. CAUSING A SAFETY CONCERN. COME TO FIND OUT. WHEN YOU RUN LOW ON WIPER FLUID, IT DEACTIVATES THESE SAFETY FEATURES. I THINK THIS IS CRAZY AND DANGEROUS. PUT IN WIPER FLUID AND IT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. WOW!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED VIOLENTLY, LOST POWER, AND SHUT OFF COMPLETELY WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND DRIVEN TO A MECHANIC. IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 69,000. .....UPDATED 10/13/16 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE LOST POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. THE CONSUMER WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND SOON AFTERWARDS, IT BEGIN TO JERK AND SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE CONSUMER WAS ONLY ABLE TO GO A CERTAIN SPEED, EVEN WITH THE ACCELERATOR PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF, AS SOON AS THE CONSUMER PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT. THE DEALER DETERMINED THE AIR COMPRESSOR AND TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. UPDATED 10/18/16.*JB

SINCE I HAVE HAD MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA IT HAS FACED SEVERAL MAJOR ISSUES SUCH HAS TWO TRANSMISSIONS REPLACEMENTS, NOW THE AC COMPRESSOR, THEN THE CAR DISPLAY SCREEN TURNED COMPLETELY PINK, AND OTHER NUMEROUS ISSUES THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN DOCUMENTED IN YOUR SYSTEM. PLEASE REFER BACK TO MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS THAT I HAVE SUBMITTED, MY SERVICE RECORDS FOR THE DEALERSHIP, AND SO FORTH FOR DOCUMENTATION PURPOSES. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT A CAR WITH ONLY 7 MILES ON IT WHEN PURCHASED SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY OF THESES ISSUES UNLESS IT WAS MANUFACTURED POORLY. I AM SO FED UP WITH DEALING WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND RUN AROUNDS FROM THE CORPORATION THAT I MAY HAVE TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION IF THIS ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED IN A TIMELY MANNER.

I BROUGHT MY CAR TO ROYAL PALM NISSAN FOR A RECALL ON THE HOOD LATCH AND TOLD THEM TO CHECK THE OCS LIGHT THAT WENT ON INTERMITTENTLY EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A PASSENGER SEATED. THIS WAS BEFORE THE RECALL NOTICE. I RECEIVED THE OCS RECALL AND WENT TO CORAL 'SPRINGS NISSAN. I RETURNED A WEEK LATER BECAUSE THE LIGHT REMAINED ON FOR 17 MINUTES A FEW DAYS LATER WHILE DRIVING WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER. I WAS TOLD IT COULD NOT BE CHECKED BECAUSE THE LIGHT WAS NOT ON THEN. IF THE LIGHT GOES ON INTERMITTENTLY, THEN MY PASSENGER IS NOT SAFE IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT AS THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. WHAT CAN BE DONE?

MY CAR AS AT A STOP SIGN OFF A HIGHWAY. AS I TRIED TO EXCELERATE, THE CAR DIED. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK. I LET IT SIT FOR A SECOND, PUT IT IN DRIVE, IT MOVED LESS THAT A FOOT AND DIED. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO A SERVICE STATION WHERE THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY. ONE WEEK LATER I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY TRYING TO EXCELERATE AND THE CAR DIED, MID HIGHWAY, I PULLED OVER. GOT IT STARTED AND AFTER NOT HAVING ANY RESULTS AT MY NISSAN DEALER, MADE IT TO MY HOME WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A FAULTY TRANSMISSION. THE CAR IS A 2014 WITH 65 THOUSAND MILES AND NISSAN WILL NOT HELP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. AFTER THE DEALER REPAIRED THE VEHICLE PER AN AIR BAG RECALL ON JUNE 28, 2016, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER ON JULY 20, 2016 TO RESET THE WARNING LIGHT, BUT THE DEALER REFUSED WITHOUT PAYMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 79,000. UPDATED 09/29/16*LJ *TR

I AM CONTACTING YOU OVER REPEATED ISSUES WITH MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SL. THIS IS MY SECOND COMPLAINT FILED TO NHTSA FOR THIS VEHICLE'S AIRBAG. AS YOU ARE AWARE, A RECALL WAS ISSUED AND HAS BEEN PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE. MY ISSUE IS THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT WON'T ARM THE AIRBAG IF MY WIFE SITS IN THE SEAT. I HAVE MULTIPLE VIDEOS OF THIS ISSUE. MY MOST RECENT VISIT TO MY NISSAN DEALER RESULTED IN THEM STATING THEY COULDN'T FIX ANYTHING AS THEY COULDN'T PULL AN ERROR CODE. THE VERY NEXT DAY, THE ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN WITH MY WIFE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND AGAIN I RECORDED IT. I OPENED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN CORPORATE. AFTER A FRUSTRATING PHONE CALL THIS EVENING, AND A LOT OF AMBITIOUS DOUBLE TALK ON NISSAN'S PART, THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE SAID THAT THE ISSUE WAS THAT MY WIFE WAS TOO LITE. MY WIFE WEIGHS BETWEEN 103 AND 108 POUNDS AS SHE FLUCTUATES A BIT. SHE STANDS 5 FOOT 3 INCHES TALL. THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE, DELISA SAID THAT NISSAN DOESN'T RECOMMEND ANYONE UNDER 4 FEET 9 INCHES OR LESS THAN 120 LBS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS WAS NEVER TOLD TO ME TWO YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS LOOKING AT PURCHASING THE CAR, OR THROUGH ANY OF THE 6-8 SERVICE TICKETS I HAVE OPENED REGARDING THIS ISSUE WITH MULTIPLE DIFFERENT FIXES ATTEMPTED. ( I CAN GET THE EXACT NUMBER AS SOON AS MY DEALER PROVIDES THE REQUESTED INFORMATION.) I WOULD HAVE NEVER BOUGHT THE CAR KNOWING MY WIFE COULDN'T RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I ASKED FOR THIS IN WRITING FROM THE NISSAN REPRESENTATIVE BUT SHE SAID SHE COULD NOT PROVIDE THAT. SHE SAID IT WAS ONLY FOR THEIR INTERNAL RECORDS. I PRESSED HER ON THE FACT THAT THEY WERE SAYING MY WIFE COULDN'T SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT. HER REPLY WAS THAT SHE DIDN'T SAY THAT, ONLY THAT NISSAN DOESN'T RECOMMEND SOMEONE LESS THAN 120 POUNDS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IS IT POSSIBLE TO BE CONTACTED BY THE NHTSA TO CLARIFY WHAT NISSAN IS SAYING AND IF IT IS ACCURATE?

DEALERSHIP FOUND RIGHT FRONT AXLE COMING OUT OF TRANSMISSION. RETAINER BRACKET LOOSE. R&R AXLE AND BRACKET. COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM OR ACCIDENT AND WE ARE LUCKY THIS PROBLEM WAS FOUND BEFORE SOMETHING HAPPENED.. IS THERE RECALL ON AXLES?. I'M NOT SURE THIS CAR IS SAFE TO DRIVE

WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THERE WAS A SLIGHT JERKING, AND PULLING WHEN GOING 0-20 MPH, I WOULD INFORM THE DEALERSHIP WHEN I WOULD GO IN FOR OIL CHANGES AND SERVICES, DUE TO THIS BEING INTERMITTENT THEY WOULD NOT TROUBLESHOOT, NOW AT 25000 MILES IT IS PERSISTENTLY JERKING AND PULLING.

"PASSENGER AIR BAGS OFF" LIGHT IS "ON" WHILE DRIVING, AT ANY SPEED, WITH AN ADULT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS LESS THAT A WEEK OLD. IT CONTINUES TO OCCUR ABOUT ONCE A MONTH. I HAVE HAD THE CAR AT THE DEALER MANY TIMES. THE PROBLEM CANNOT BE DUPLICATED AT THE DEALER, THEREFORE NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE. ON JUNE 15, 2016 THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER IN RESPONSE TO RECALL #16V244000. NO HELP! THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED TWICE SINCE THEN. THE PROBLEM: ALWAYS OCCURS DURING AN ENGINE START. NEVER WHILE DRIVING. IT SEEMS TO BE PART OF THE INITIALIZATION PROCESS. MAY CORRECT ITSELF AT ANY TIME. IT MAY LAST FOR A HALF A MILE OR 50 MILES. CANNOT BE CORRECTED BY THE PASSENGER STANDING OR BOUNCING CAN ALWAYS BE CORRECTED BY PULLING OFF THE ROAD AND STOPPING THEN RESTARTING THE ENGINE. I HAVE A LOTS OF CELL PHONE PHOTOS SHOWING VEHICLE SPEED, "PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF" INDICATION AND AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THESE PHOTOS ARE DATED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 16V244000 (AIR BAGS), 16V029000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES), AND 15V116000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES).

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,354.

SINCE PURCHASING THIS CAR IN EARLY 2015 I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE FOLLOWING: OCCASIONALLY THE CAR ALARM WILL SOUND / LIGHTS WILL FLASH EITHER BY MANUALLY PRESSING THE BUTTON ON THE DRIVERS DOOR, PASSENGERS DOOR OR THE TRUNK LID (WITH KEY FOB IN POCKET OR IN HAND) THIS ISSUE ALSO OCCURS USING EITHER ONE OF MY FACTORY KEY FOBS UNLOCK BUTTONS (BOTH WITH NEW BATTERIES INSTALLED BY THE DEALER). BY PRESSING THE FOBS UNLOCK BUTTON AGAIN OR PRESSING THE DOOR BUTTON AGAIN A SECOND TIME, THE ALARM TURNS OFF AND THE DOOR UNLOCKS. I HAVE HAD THIS IN TO THE DEALER FOUR TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR BUT THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. I AM TOLD EACH TIME THAT NISSAN WILL NOT AUTHORIZE SERVICE UNLESS THEY SEE IT HAPPEN OR SOME CODE IS STORED. WHY WON'T NISSAN UPPER LEVEL TECHNICIANS BECOME INVOLVED WITH THESE KINDS OF PROBLEMS?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG OFF WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHILE THE SEAT WAS OCCUPIED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS SERVICED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V244000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL ECONOMY DISPLAY ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DID NOT DISPLAY THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF FUEL IN THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE SPEEDOMETER GAUGE WAS INCORRECT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 30,000.

I JUST HAD A RECALL PERFORMED ON MY CAR FOR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR. NOW, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME WHEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS EMPTY. THIS CREATES A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT BECAUSE IT INTERFERES WITH PERIPHERAL VISION BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS SO BRIGHT. I COMPLAINED TO MY DEALER, BUT THEY SAY THERE IS NO FIX FOR IT. SO WHAT DO I DO, NOT DRIVE MY CAR AT NIGHT ? THEY TOLD ME THAT THE RECALL WAS ORDERED BY THE NHTSA.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL ABRUPTLY AND THE FRONT DRIVER'S SEAT LUNGED FORWARD AND COMPLETELY DETACHED. THE CONTACT'S FACE STRUCK THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CONTACT DID NOT SUSTAIN INJURIES. UPON INSPECTION, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE SEAT WAS NOT BOLTED TO THE FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.

I HAVE HAD MANY ISSUES WHILE DRIVING ON A STREET, HIGHWAY, AND AT A STOP. ALL THE ISSUES SEEMS TO POINT TO EITHER SOFTWARE OR ELECTRICAL ISSUES. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO THE DEALERSHIP ON MANY OCCASIONS. I BOUGHT MY CAR WITH ONLY APPROX. 7-10 MILES ON IT IN JAN. 2014. SINCE THE BEGINNING, I HAVE HAD MY ENTIRE DASHBOARD SHUT OFF W/O WARNING. NAVIGATION, RADIO, CAMERA, ETC. COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF, AIR BAGS LIGHTS TURNING OFF AND ON, THE AIR CONDITIONER INTERMITTINGLY WORKING WHENEVER IT CHOOSES, THE CIGARETTE LIGHTERS (BOTH) THAT I USE TO CHARGE MY PHONE NO LONGER WORKS, AND ACCELERATION NOT ACCELERATING PROPERLY (TRANSMISSION ISSUE?). I HAVE NOT EVER HAD SO MANY CAR PROBLEMS, ESPECIALLY WITH A NEW CAR. WHEN I ASK THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT RECALLS, THEY ARE ONLY CONCERNED WITH REPAIR COSTS THEY WANT TO COLLECT, IN WHICH I UNDERSTAND. HOWEVER, WHAT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND IS LOOKING UP THE ISSUE ONLINE AND SEEING HUNDREDS OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS. JUST WITH THE SAME AIR CONDITIONER ISSUE ALONE, ON ONLY ONE SITE, THERE WERE ALMOST 600 CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS. I WAS ASTOUNDED. I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE ARE NOT MORE RECALLS WITH WHAT I HAVE READ. BESIDES SERIOUS BODILY INJURIES OR DEATH, DO NISSAN OWNERS NEED TO GET THE MEDIA INVOLVED TO GET SOMETHING DONE. LOCALLY, THERE IS A TV STATION THAT DEDICATES A SEGMENT TO CONSUMER REVIEWS AND COMPLAINTS. IT'S CERTAINLY A CONSIDERATION AT THIS POINT.

I HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL! I COME ACROSS IT ON MY MS NEWS NOW APP, HAD I NOT BEEN ON THIS APP I MAY HAVE NEVER KNOWN AND FOR THIS I AM VERY CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THAT OF MY NIECE. I TAKE MY NIECE TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY AND I HAVE NOTICED MANY TIMES THAT MY AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS LIT THAT IT'S OFF, I CALLED MY NISSAN NORTH DEALERSHIP IN JACKSON MS AND I WAS INFORMED THAT IT WAS FIXED AND OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT BECAUSE IT IS STILL ON!

WHEN I RECEIVED MY RECALL NOTICE, NHTSA RECALL 16V-029, I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AT MY NISSAN DEALERSHIP, SUNTRUP NISSAN, TO HAVE MY CAR REPAIRED. AT THE APPOINTMENT, SUNTRUP NISSAN TOLD ME THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART TO FIX IT, AND WOULD CALL ME WHEN IT WAS AVAILABLE. WELL, IT HAS BEEN QUITE A WHILE, AND THEY HAVE NEVER CALLED ME. THEN, I EMAILED THE SERVICE MANAGER, AND HE NEVER RESPONDED. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO.

TWO COMPLAINTS: ONE: THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INTERMITTENTLY AND RANDOMLY COMES ON WHILE DRIVING. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID THE PLUG UNDER THE DRIVERS SEAT WAS LOOSE. THEY "FIXED IT". THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED 3 TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND IS CURRENTLY DOING IT AGAIN, BUT IT IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY BECAUSE OF MILEAGE AND THEY ARE GOING TO CHARGE ME TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN, YET HAS REOCCURRED REGULARLY SINCE NEW. TWO: WHEN DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL AND NEAR A COMPLETE STOP, THE PEDAL BECOMES "SOFT" FOR ABOUT A HALF SECOND, THE CAR STOPS DECELERATING FOR THAT HALF SECOND THEN CONTINUES TO STOP NORMALLY, THEREAFTER. EACH TIME I MENTION THIS AT A SERVICE INTERVAL AT THE DEALER, THEY SAY THEY WILL LOOK INTO IT. NOTHING IS NOTED ON MY INVOICE AND NOTHING IS MENTIONED WHEN THE CAR IS PICKED UP. IT IS UNSETTLING AND IT CAUSES THE CAR TO STOP SEVERAL FEET FURTHER THAN IF THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE BRAKES BEGAN TO SQUEAK AND THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V029000 (LATCHES, LOCKS, LINKAGES). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16,000.

FIRST THIS CAR ONLY HAS 11,000 MILES ON. WE GOT THE BATTERY CHANGE ON IT LAST YEAR. BUT SOME REASON THE BATTERY KEEPS ON DYING ON US. SATURDAY MAY 7TH THE CAR WAS WORKING FINE AND WE STOP TO GO FOOD SHOPPING COME BACK OUT AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START. WE HAD THIS CHECK OUT LAST YEAR AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR. BUT THERE IS SOMETHING GOING WITH THIS CAR TO ACT UP THIS WAY.

RE RECALL 14V-138. TOOK VEHICLE IN ON 6-19-2014. REPROGRAM OF PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR WAS PERFORMED BY DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT. DID NOT FIX. SENSOR DEACTIVATION LIGHT COMING ON AGAIN. WHY IS DEACTIVATION EVEN A FEATURE? NEEDS REMOVED/REPLACED SO THAT AIR BAG WILL DEPLOY IN COLLISION WHETHER SEAT IS OCCUPIED OR EMPTY!

I EXPERIENCED A GRINDING, SHAKING NOISE AT 2.0 RPM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR SERVICE AND I WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED AND THAT WAS WHEN ALL OF MY TROUBLES BEGAN. THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE AND JERK WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. THERE WAS NOW A VIBRATION AT 1.5 RPM. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS ADVISED THAT A BELT WAS LOOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO ME AND IT STILL WAS NOT DRIVING SMOOTHLY AND NOW THE ENTIRE GEAR CONSOLE WAS LOOSE. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE FROM EITHER DRIVE OR REVERSE UPON STARTING, EVEN WHEN THE GEAR SHIFT WAS MOVED. IT WOULD TAKE TWO TRIES EACH TIME TO GET THE CAR TO MOVE FROM PARK. THE VEHICLE WENT BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE GEAR CONSOLE WAS ADJUSTED. HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE - VEHICLE NOT MOVING WHEN GEAR PLACED IN REVERSE OR DRIVE. THIS WEEKEND (4/30/16) I DROVE THE VEHICLE IN VIRGINIA AND HAD TO NAVIGATE SEVERAL HIGH ELEVATIONS WHILE ON THE I-81 HIGHWAY. THE CAR WAS SLUGGISH AT BEST, DRAGGING AND THE GEARS WOULD NOT CHANGE. THE CAR WAS RACING LOUDLY TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH THE SPEED, RPM WAS UP AT 3.5 AND THE CAR WAS AT 50 MLES; SPEED LIMIT WAS 70. ONCE I CLEARED THE HILL THE RPMS LEVELED OUT TO 1.5 AND THE CAR HELD THE 70 MPH SPEED. NOTE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT PERFORMING THIS WAY BEFORE THE "NEW TRANSMISSION" WAS INSTALLED. I DID HAVE THE GRINDING AND RACING NOISE AT 2.0 RPM, BUT NO HESITATION, JERKING OR ANY DIFFICULTIES IN HIGHER ELEVATIONS. THAT LEADS ME TO CONCLUDE THAT THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE WRONG WITH THIS VEHICLE OTHER THAN THE TRANSMISSION. I HAVE ALSO LODGED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS WHOM I AM AWAITING A RESPONSE FROM ON MY COMPLAINT. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS 18,694 MILES AND WAS PURCHASED IN AUGUST OF 2014.

HELLO, I BOUGHT NISSAN ALTIMA 2014 IN NOV 2013 FROM NISSAN FAULKER JENKINTOWN, PA AND AROUND JULY-AUG 2014, I HAD ISSUE WITH THE CAR AND WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE CAR SUDDENLY DECELERATED ITSELF WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON GAS PEDAL, I HAD TO TOW IT TO NISSAN FAULKER IN JENKINTOWN, PA, THEY SAID NOTHING IS WRONG AND ASKED ME TO PICK MY CAR, AGAIN ON JAN 30TH, 2016 WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON I680 FROM SACRAMENTO TO SAN JOSE, THE CAR STARTED DE-ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN FROM 65MPH TO 5MPH AND I HAD TO PULL IT ON SHOULDER AND LUCKILY NO CAR WAS ON WAY AND HAD TO TOW IT TO NISSAN DEALER, MY CAR IS AROUND 55K MILES AND NOW I AM AFRAID AFTER THIS MY CAR WOULD BE OUT OF WARRANTY AND I HAVE TO SHED LOT OF MONEY FOR REPAIR IN NEAR FUTURE OF NO FAULT OF MINE.

HAD RANDOM PASSENGER AIRBAG REMAIN ON WHEN PASSENGER WAS SITTING IN SEAT - MET ALL WEIGHT REQUIREMENTS. THIS NEVER HAPPENED CONTINUALLY BUT WAS PROBLEMATIC ENOUGH TO BRING IN TO DEALER. THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. BROUGHT IN SEVERAL TIMES, STILL NO FIX. NISSAN RECALLED THIS PROBLEM IN APRIL 2015, HAD FIX DONE TO VEHICLE. WITHIN A WEEK AIRBAG LIGHT STAYED ON WITH PASSENGER IN SEAT. THIS ISSUE CONTINUES YET TALKING WITH NISSAN THEY BELIEVE THAT SINCE THE DEALER CAN'T FIND ANY ERROR CODES SHOWING WHAT THE PROBLEM IS THEY WILL NOT FIX IT. NISSAN WILL NOT PUT THIS UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V681000 AS IT DOES NOT FIT THEIR CRITERIA. I BELIEVE ANY PASSENGER SITTING IN THAT SEAT IS NOT SAFE. VEHICLE IS RUNNING PASSENGER COMES IN AND SITS IN SEAT, PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON. PASSENGER IS 160#. IF I TURN VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART THE AIRBAG LIGHT USUALLY DOES STAY OFF. BUT NOT SURE OF THE SAFETY AT THAT POINT - IS AIRBAG REALLY ON? THIS IS CONTINUAL SINCE BUYING THE VEHICLE IN 2013, FIX IN SPRING OF 2015 DID NOT FIX OCS FOR MY VEHICLE.

PURCHASED VEHICLE BRAND NEW IN DECEMBER 2013. TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 25,000 MILES. WAS DRIVING ON PA TURNPIKE. CAR WAS NOT ACCELERATING WHEN DEPRESSING GAS PEDAL. WAS ABLE TO GET OFF AN EXIT. CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. WAS INFORMED IT NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION.

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR IS NOT PROPERLY SENSING THE WEIGHT. THE "AIRBAG OFF" LIGHT IS ON WHEN AN ADULT OVER THE WEIGHT LIMIT SITS IN THE SEAT. PLUS, A CHILD UNDER THE WEIGHT LIMIT, THE "AIRBAG OFF" LIGHT IS OFF. IN SHORT, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR IS NOT PROPERLY DETECTING THE CORRECT WEIGHT OF THE PASSENGER.

MY CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 27,500 MILES. ABOUT THREE MONTHS AGO I BEGAN HAVING A HARD TIME KEEPING THE CAR IN MY LANE OF TRAFFIC. THE CAR WAS PULLING HARD TO THE LEFT, REQUIRING ME TO STEER TO THE RIGHT (APPROXIMATELY TO A 1 O'CLOCK POSITION). I BELIEVED THIS TO BE AN ALIGNMENT ISSUE AND HAD A LARGE CHAIN REPAIR SHOP COMPLETE AN ALIGNMENT. THE STEERING ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED. I THEN TOOK THE CAR TO MY DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED THAT IT WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT AND THEY HAD FIXED THE ISSUES WITH AN ALIGNMENT (I HAVE NOT PAID $250 IN ALIGNMENT CHARGES). AFTER A FEW DAYS OF DRIVING IT, THE CAR IS STILL PULLING TO THE LEFT. I HAVE TRIED DRIVING IN ALL LANES OF TRAFFIC AND BEEN SENSITIVE TO THE GRADE OF THE ROAD...HOWEVER, MY CAR WILL PULL TO THE LEFT IN ANY SITUATION. IN MOST CASES, IT TAKES QUITE A BIT OF PRESSURE STEERING TO THE RIGHT, TO KEEP THE CAR DRIVING STRAIGHT-AHEAD. WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO ADVISE THEM THE REPAIR WAS NOT CORRECT, THEY SAID THEY HAD TWO TECHS DRIVE IT AND IT WAS FINE - I WOULD NEED TO RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND DRIVE THE CAR WITH THEM TO DIAGNOSE. I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO SPEND ADDITIONAL TIME WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO FIND A REPAIR FOR MY VEHICLE. I MADE A REPORT WITH NISSAN CUSTOMER AFFAIRS. IN MY EXPERIENCE WITH NISSAN, THESE ARE THE STEPS THAT ARE NEEDED TO GET A SOLUTION TO ANY SAFETY ISSUES.

TAKATA RECALL- MY 18 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS IN A SEVERE CAR WRECK WITH SIDE IMPACT AND ROLLOVER X 3. SHE HAD AN INJURY TO THE LEFT SIDE OF HER FACE WHERE THE SIDE IMPACT AIRBAGS NOR THE CURTAIN AIRBAGS CAME OUT .

I PURCHASED A USED 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA THE END OF APRIL 2015 FROM ENTERPRISE CAR SALES. I WAS TOLD THEY DID SUCH A THOROUGH INSPECTION OF ALL OF THEIR VEHICLES THAT THE CAR WAS IN GREAT CONDITION. IN OCTOBER 2015, WITH APPROXIMATELY, 61,000 MILES ON THE NISSAN, IT STARTED RANDOMLY HESITATING. I WOULD PUSH THE GAS PEDAL BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. A FEW DAYS LATER, I WAS PULLING OUT FROM AN INTERSECTION AND I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE!! I BARELY MADE IT HOME. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION, $3400 AND THAT THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY HAD JUST EXPIRED AT 60,000 MILES. I CALLED NISSAN NORTH AMERICA CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND FILED A CLAIM TO SEE IF THEY WOULD COVER A NEW TRANSMISSION. AFTER ABOUT 5 OR 6 DAYS, I RECEIVED A CALL BACK AND WAS TOLD NO, THEY WOULD NOT COVER OR HELP PAY FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. I ASKED IF THEY WERE AWARE OF ALL OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THESE CVT TRANSMISSIONS, THE REP SAID THEY HAD PROBLEMS ON PREVIOUS YEAR AND MODEL VEHICLES BUT NOT ON THE 2014(S). OBVIOUSLY, THERE ARE STILL PROBLEMS!!! A 2014 VEHICLE SHOULD NOT NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION!!!

THE NAVIGATION / RADIO SYSTEM REBOOTS ITSELF UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE THE DEVICE IS IN USE AND WHILE DRIVING.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA S WITH 48,000 MILES ON IT. AFTER DRIVING IT FOR FOUR MONTHS I RECENTLY STARTED HAVING AN ISSUE. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS BAD GAS BECAUSE THE CAR STARTED JERKING AND ACTING LIKE IT WAS NOT GETTING GAS. I PURCHASED THE STUFF FOR FUEL THAT YOU USE TO INCREASE THE OCTANE IN THE TANK AND FILLED UP THE TANK. THE CAR DROVE OK FOR A DAY OR TWO, THEN IT STARTED WITH THE FOLLOWING. WHEN I DEPRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR AT A STOP LIGHT, IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT 30 SECONDS TO PULL OFF. AT THAT TIME THE LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOOKED AT THE OWNERS MANUAL AND IT STATED IT WAS A FUEL EMISSION ISSUE. FILL THE TANK WITH HIGH OCTANE GAS AND THE LIGHT SHOULD GO OUT IN A FEW TRIPS. THE ISSUE CONTINUED TO GET WORSE AS I WAS DRIVING SAT, 10/10/15. I WENT FROM PULLING OFF SLOWLY, TO WHEN I DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR IT WOULDN'T GO AT ALL UNTIL I KEPT PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK, THEN DRIVE, THEN PARK, THEN DRIVE MANY TIMES UNTIL IT DECIDED TO DRIVE. AT THAT POINT I DECIDED TO TAKE THE CAR HOME CAUSE THE ISSUE WAS GETTING WORSE. ONLY I NEVER MADE IT HOME THE CAR SUDDENLY DECIDED IT WOULD NOT GO MORE THAN 35 IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I WAS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING IT JUST SLOWED DOWN IMMEDIATELY AND MADE THIS LOUD WHINING NOISE. HAD I NOT BEEN IN AN AREA WHERE I COULD PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY MY 72 YEAR MOTHER AND I WOULD HAVE BEEN TOAST.

THE VEHICLE HAS HAD RECURRING PROBLEMS WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND WITH AN OCCUPANT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON BOTH CITY STREETS AND INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN DUE TO A RECALL ON THE RESTRAINT SYSTEM ON MAY 9, 2014. PREVIOUS TO THIS THERE WERE NO OBSERVABLE PROBLEMS. ON JUNE 12, 2014 THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT INTO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE I BEGAN TO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON WHEN A PASSENGER WAS IN THE FRONT SEAT WHILE DRIVING. NISSAN DETECTED A PROBLEM AND REPLACED THE AIRBAG DETECTION SENSOR. THE PROBLEM SOON BECAME EVIDENT AGAIN (MANY TIMES I DRIVE THE VEHICLE WHILE ALONE, SO PROBLEM ISN'T ALWAYS EVIDENT.) ON JAN 30, 2015 I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE INTO NISSAN DEALERSHIP WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. AGAIN, THEY DETECTED CODES REGARDING THE PASSENGER OCCUPANT SENSORS AND THEY SAID THEY REPLACED THE SENSOR. FIVE DAYS LATER THE PROBLEM SHOWED UP WHILE WE WERE ON A LENGTHY TRIP. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN AGAIN ON APRIL 9. THEY STATED THAT NO CODES SHOWED UP AND SUGGESTED IT PROBABLY WOULD BE OK. HOWEVER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE PROBLEM SHOWED UP AGAIN, I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, EACH TIME THEY STATED THAT THEY DID A COMPUTER SCAN AND NO CODES SHOWED UP. I HAD TAKEN VIDEOS ON 3 OCCASIONS SHOWING THE VEHICLE IN MOTION AND SHOWING A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT AND SHOWING THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON INDICATING THE AIRBAG WAS NOT IN OPERATION. I OFFERED , EVEN ASKED IF THEY WOULD WATCH BUT THEY DECLINED. THEY SAID THAT EVERYTHING WAS FUNCTIONAL. THEY FURTHER TOLD ME THAT THE PRIMARY MEANS OF RESTRAINT WAS THE SEATBELT. I ASKED IF THEY WOULD CHECK TO SEE IF THE SENSOR WAS POSITIONED PROPERLY, HOWEVER THEY REFUSED, SAYING THAT NISSAN WOULD NOT AUTHORIZE ANY OTHER WORK TO BE DONE UNLESS THE COMPUTER SHOWED A PROBLEM. I AM LEFT NOT KNOWING OF MY VEHICLE IS SAFE.

SINCE THE FIRST WEEK WE OWNED THE CAR, OCCASIONALLY THE SCREEN(BACK UP CAM, RADIO...) DOESN'T START, OR FAILS WITHIN FIRST MILE OF DRIVING- MAYBE 10 TIMES SINCE PURCHASE DATE. ON JULY 29, 2015- MORNING- CAR UPON START, NO SCREEN AND NO DASHBOARD. RESTARTED TWICE AND THEN FINE. AT 9:30 P.M. SAME DAY-- CLOSE TO HOME, SIDE MIRROR FAILURE WARNING SHOWED ON DASH- AND A SUBSEQUENT FAILURE OF SYSTEMS- INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO- GPS, SCREEN, TURN SIGNALS, HEADLIGHTS,HAZARD LIGHTS, ALL DASH INFORMATION. I PULLED INTO PARKING GARAGE AND ATTEMPTED TO OPEN WINDOW TO USE KEY FOB FOR GATE AND HAD NO OPERATING WINDOWS, INCLUDING SUNROOF OR LOCKS. PUT CAR IN PARK AND COULD NOT GET IT INTO ANOTHER GEAR.TRAPPED IN CAR FOR 15 MIN. WITH CAR RUNNING- PASSENGER DOOR THEN UNLOCKED. AAA CALLED. CAR RAN FOR 3 HRS. AAA DISABLED THE ELECTRICAL OPERATING THE FUEL PUMP. CAR TOWED TO COCHRAN IN PITTSBURGH. SINCE A RESTART RESETS THE COMPUTER, NO CODE ON DIAGNOSTIC WOULD BE FOUND. COCHRAN CONSIDERS THE SITUATION RESOLVED. NISSAN HAS A CASE # AND SEVERAL RECORDED (BY NISSAN) CONVERSATIONS HAVE OCCURRED WITH REGIONAL REP. AND THAT REP. WILL NOT SEND WRITTEN FINDINGS OF INVESTIGATION (CHECK THE I KEY)AS IT IS INTERNAL INFORMATION AND I WILL PAY ALL DIAGNOSTIC FEES ASSOCIATED.

THIS CAN'T HAPPEN AGAIN- BUT IT WILL AND IT COULD BE CATASTROPHIC-THE INTERMITTENT, RANDOM, SYSTEMATIC FAILURE WILL HAPPEN- THE EXTENT AND ORDER OF EVENTS UNKNOWN - LEAVING US AN UNCERTAIN OUTCOME AND NO PLAN FOR RESPONSE IN THE GIVEN SITUATION. WE SUSPECT THE PROBLEM IS THE BCM AS ALERTED BY THE INTERNET RESEARCH, THE AAA DRIVER AND THE COCHRAN TECH.

I HAVE A LEASED 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA THAT ON 2 OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING FAILED TO SHIFT INTO THE NEXT GEAR. THE LAST TIME WAS 08/21/15, THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD MY KIDS IN THE CAR I COULD NOT MAINTAIN SAFE DRIVING SPEED AND HAD TO PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS, PULL OVER AND RESTART THE CAR TWICE. THE LIGHT STAYED ON BUT THE CAR RESUMED NORMAL FUNCTION. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK IT EARLY TO BAY RIDGE NISSAN DEALER THEY LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THERE WAS A PASS CODE THAT SHOWED UP BUT THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE CODE MEANT OTHER THAN THERE WAS AN ALERT FROM THE CAR. THE COULDN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM OR SAY WHY THE ISSUE HAD HAPPENED OR GIVE ANY GUARANTEES THAT IT WOULD NOT OCCUR AGAIN WHICH IS A POTENTIAL DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITION BUT PROCEEDED TO CHARGE ME $260 FOR DIAGNOSTICS ON A NEW CAR I LEASED THAT HAS WARRANTY.

I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SV FROM BAKER NISSAN NORTH IN HOUSTON, TEXAS (19630 NORTHWEST FWY, HOUSTON, TX 77065 (281) 890-5656). MY TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED TWICE (REPLACED THE FIRST TIME AND NOW HAVING TO BE REPLACED AGAIN) AND I HAVE BEEN GETTING THE RUN AROUND FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THIS ISSUE SHOULD NOT BE OCCURRING WITH A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. THEN TO TOP IT OFF I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL CUSTOMER AND HAVE PURCHASED A TOTAL OF FOUR CARS FROM THIS DEALERSHIP NOW. I FILED A CONSUMER AFFAIRS REPORT WITH NISSAN CORPORATION AND HAVE YET TO HEAR SOMETHING. I ALSO CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE IN CHARGE SUCH AS THE GENERAL MANAGER AND THEY INFORMED ME TO CONTACT THE CONSUMERS AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT WITH NISSAN CORPORATION. THEY SAID THEY HAVE A CHAIN OF COMMAND TO FOLLOW AND THAT WOULD BE MY BEST BET OF GETTING THE SITUATION RESOLVED. I WOULD LIKE THIS SITUATION TO BE INVESTIGATED AND JUSTICE. I DO NOT SPEND MY HARD EARNED MONEY TO HAVE A CAR THAT IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY AND COULD PUT MY LIFE AND OTHERS IN DANGER. IT COMES DOWN TO THE FACT THAT THIS CAR IS A LEMON AND I SHOULD BE GIVEN BRAND NEW TRANSPORTATION OR THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD PURCHASE THE CAR AND PAY OFF THE LOAN AND LET ME TAKE MY BUSINESS ELSEWHERE....... I ALSO HAVE COPIES OF MY MAINTENANCE RECORDS FOR DOCUMENTATION PURPOSES.....THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V138000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). HOWEVER, THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN AN ADULT PASSENGER WAS SEATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGERS SIDE SEAT, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INDICATING THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WAS DEACTIVATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN AN ADULT PASSENGER SAT IN THE FRONT PASSENGERS SIDE SEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,000.

TRANSMISSION FAILS ON THE HIGHWAY THIS IS THE SECOND TIME FOR A BRAND NEW CAR. I HAD MY CHILD IN THE CAR THIS TIME. THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOSES POWER . THE FIRST TIME IT OCCURRED WAS @ 3000 MILES . THE SECOND TIME IS AT 13000 MILES. THE BIGGEST RISK IS BEING REAR ENDED BY THE VEHICLE BEHIND DUE TO THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND NISSAN KNOWS THEIR CVT FOR ALTIMA AND ROGUE 2014 IS AN ISSUE, NO MOVE FROM MANUFACTURER TO REPLACE THE CAR OR RECALL ALL CARS IN QUESTION

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING AT 10 MPH, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED CONTINUOUSLY.

WHEN IM IN TRAFFIC AND TRY TO SPEED UP THE CAR DOESN'T CHANGE GEARS. IVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER FOUR TIMES AND THEY DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. IT HAS HAPPENED TWO TIMES WITHIN THE LAST THREE DAYS, WHICH IS MORE FREQUENTLY THAN BEFORE. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. WHEN I STOP THE CAR COMPLETELY, LETS SAY AT A RED LIGHT, THEN PRESS THE GAS IT TAKES A FEW SECONDS FOR THE CAR TO EVEN START MOVING.

THE PASS. SIDE AIR BAG OFF LIGHT DO NOT ALL WAYS TURN OFF WHEN SOMEONE IS SETTING IN PASS. SEAT. NISSAN LAST YEAR HAD A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, THEY RELOADED THE OCS SOFTWARE FOR THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD 3 PROBLEM SO FAR SENSE THE RECALL. MOST OF THE TIME THERE IS NO ONE BUT ME IN THE CAR SO I DO NOT HAVE A IDEA OF HOW OFTEN IT COULD HAD FAIL IF SOMEONE WAS IN THE PASS. SEAT WITH EVERY TRIP. I HAVE ONLY TAKEN THE CAR ONCE TO THE DEALER FOR THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THE FIRST TIME I DID NOT THINK ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND AFTER CHECKING IT OUT, THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTING THEY COULD OR WOULD DO BECAUSE THEY HAD NO FAILURE AND THAT NISSAN WILL NOT LET THEM REPLACE ANY PARTS UNLESS THERE IS A FAILURE AS NISSAN WILL NOT PAY FOR THE ITEM. OPEN REF.# 19611123 WITH NISSAN AND WAS TOLD ABOUT THE SAME THIN, EXCEPT NISSAN SAID THAT IT WAS THE DEALER CALL BUT THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR NO FAILURE PART REPLACEMENT. I BELIEVE IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AND SOMEONE WITH POWER SHOULD LOOK INTO IT, DO TO THE FACT THERE HAVE ALREADY BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. NO ONE I TALK TO AT THE DEALER OR ON THE PHONE TO NISSAN WOULD OR COULD DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE INTERNET HAS MANY WRITE UP ABOUT THIS PROBLEM THAT NO ONE WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT. I GUESS THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO BE BADLY INJURED OR KILLED TO TAKE THE PROBLEM SERIOUS.

STARTED NOTICING THIS PROBLEM IN THE FIRST WEEK OF PURCHASE. CAR NEEDS TO BE CONSTANTLY CORRECTED TO STAY INSIDE THE LANE EVEN WHEN DRIVING STRAIGHT, AND THE STEERING BECOMES TO TAUT WHEN I TRY TO CORRECT IT, LIKE ITS BEING PULLED AWAY FROM DEAD-CENTRE. I ALMOST RAN INTO CARS IN THE OTHER LANE, WAS HONKED AT MULTIPLE TIMES.. NOW I AM EXTREMELY CAREFUL AND DRIVE WITH BOTH HANDS ON THE STEERING CONSTANTLY ADJUSTING TO STAY INSIDE THE LANE. A FRIEND WHO WAS FOLLOWING ME LAST WEEKEND SAID I WAS WEAVING SO MUCH THAT IT LOOKED LIKE SOME DRUNK WAS DRIVING THE CAR!! THE STEERING ISSUE HAS TO BE FIXED BEFORE IT CAUSED ANY FATALITIES.

DURING OUR VACATION WHILE DRIVING IN ILLINOIS WE NOTICED WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY GOING AT A SPEED OF 60 TO 65 MPH WHILE AN ADULT OCCUPYING THE PASSENGER SEAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND SAID PASSENGER AIR BAG TURNED OFF. I PULLED OUT THE OWNERS MANUAL AND READ THAT IT COULD BE CAUSED BY AN ARTICLE PERHAPS TOUCHING THE SEAT IF RECLINED TOO FAR BACK. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. THERE WAS NOTHING TOUCHING THE SEAT. I WAS SITTING PERFECTLY STILL SO THE SENSOR SHOULD HAVE DETECTED A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT. I HAD BEEN SITING IN THE SEAT FOR HOURS WITH THE NORMAL MOVEMENT. WE PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF THEN RESTARTED AND THE LIGHT STAYED OFF. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON OUR VACATION AND IS A SCARY THOUGHT TO HAVE THIS OCCUR. ONCE HOME, I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN APPOINTMENT AND IN THE MEANTIME THE SAME THING OCCURRED ON A SHORT IN TOWN TRIP TWICE.MY APPOINTMENT IS THIS WEEK SO I AM CURIOUS WHAT THEY WILL FIND.

ON APPROXIMATELY JUNE 19, 2015 I STARTED EXPERIENCING SLUGGISH TAKE OFF FROM A STOP POSITION IN MY CAR. NOTICEABLY AFTER WORK, ON THE WAY HOME IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC AFTER 7-10 MILES INTO MY TRANSIT (WITH OUTSIDE TEMPS IN THE 90'S). DIDN'T HAPPEN EVERYDAY, ONLY WHEN TRAFFIC WAS REALLY BAD (STOP AND GO). I TOOK VEHICLE INTO DEALERSHIP ON JUNE 29TH TO HAVE THIS CHECKED OUT; DEALERSHIP REPAIR DROVE VEHICLE FOR APPROXIMATELY 16-MILES AND FOUND NO HESITATION WHILE DRIVING DURING THAT TIME. ON JULY 2ND, ON THE WAY HOME FROM WORK THE SLUGGISHNESS TURNED INTO A CRITICAL, SERIOUS 'HESITATION' PROBLEM. MY FOOT WAS PRESSING ON GAS PEDAL BUT CAR WOULDN'T MOVE, I WAS HOLDING UP TRAFFIC, I PRESSED HARDER AND HARDER AND THEN MY CAR LUNGED FORWARD ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT ON TWO OCCASIONS; THIS PROBLEM CONTINUED INTERMITTENTLY ALL THE WAY HOME (FOR THE NEXT 5+ MILES) - I DROVE WITH EMERGENCY FLASHERS. CALLED DEALERSHIP NEXT DAY I SPOKE WITH RECEPTIONIST ASKING TO SPEAK WITH SERVICE MANAGER, LEFT HIM VOICEMAIL MESSAGE/CALL NEVER RETURNED CALLED BACK COUPLE OF TIMES ONLY TO GET VOICEMAIL. MADE APPOINTMENT ONLINE & TOOK CAR IN ON JULY 7TH. CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP EVER SINCE. ASSISTANT SERVICE MANAGER STATES THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I EXPLAINED I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR; ESPECIALLY WITH TWO MISSED CAR CRASHES. THAT WAS ENOUGH FOR ME! SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T WANT THIS CAR ANYMORE.

CAR WILL NOT STAY IN LANE AT HIGHWAY SPEED IT WANDERS BACK AND FORTH YOU HAVE TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT TO STAY IN YOUR LANE . ALMOST WENT UNDER SEMI TRUCK TRAILER .AIR BAG LIGHT ALSO COMES ON SAYING NO ONE IS IN PASSENGER SEAT WHEN MY WIFE IS SETTING THERE .BEEN TO DEALER ON RECALL 2 TIMES ON THIS ALREADY

WE TOOK A TRIP TO NORTHERN MICHIGAN FROM ASHEVILLE NC, OUR ALTIMA BEGAN TO DIE WHEN IDLING IN DETROIT. I THOUGHT WE HAD BAD GAS SO PURCHASED LUCAS FUEL SYSTEM CLEANER AND FILLED THE FUEL TANK. THE VEHICLES PERFORMANCE IMPROVED WE CONTINUED OUR TRIP TO INDIAN RIVER MI. ONCE WE REACHED OUR DESTINATION I PARKED THE CAR AND IT SAT FROM SATURDAY UNTIL THE FOLLOWING TUESDAY MORNING. I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND PUT IT IN REVERSE THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T MOVE, I SHIFTED THE CAR BACK INTO PARK AND THEN TO REVERSE AGAIN DEPRESSED TO FUEL PEDAL AND IT BEGAN TO MOVE. WE STARTED ON OUR DAY TRIP AND ABOUT TWO MILES DOWN THE ROAD AND THE VEHICLE DOWN SHIFTED AND WOULD NOT GO FAST THAN 20MPH, WE CALLED NISSAN ASSISTANCE AND THE SENT A WRECKER TO GET US. THE WRECKER TO US TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALERSHIP TWO HOURS AWAY, AFTER SPENDING ANOTHER FOUR HOURS AT THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT OUR VEHICLE HAD TO HAVE ANOTHER TRANSMISSION. THE DEALERSHIP GOT US A RENTAL CAR AND WE ARE CURRENTLY ON OUR WAY HOME. I WILL BE TALKING TO NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE ON MONDAY TO SEE HOW THEY PLAN ON GETTING OUR VEHICLE BACK TO US. WE NO WARNING LIGHTS OR SIGNALS CAME ON TO WARN US UNTIL THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T MOVE AT ALL.

THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT SEAT WILL NOT DETECT AN ADULT OCCUPYING THE SEAT AND DISABLES THE AIR BAG FOR THAT PASSENGER. I HAVE PERSONALLY EXPERIENCED THIS ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS FOR ADULTS RANGING IN WEIGHTS FROM 130 POUNDS TO 165 POUNDS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY DEALER ON 4 OCCASIONS. THE FIRST TIME THEY TOLD ME THEY REPROGRAMMED IT. THE SECOND, THEY REPLACED A SENSOR. THE THIRD, THEY SAID MY WIFE DIDN'T WEIGH ENOUGH AND TO SIT VERY STILL OR BOUNCE AROUND IN THE SEAT SO THAT THE PASSENGER IS DETECTED. THE FOURTH TIME, THEY REPLACED TWO SENSORS. STILL THE ISSUE PERSISTS. TO TRY AND REMEDY, I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND KEEP TURNING THE CAR OFF AND ON UNTIL IT DETECTS MY PASSENGER AND ENABLES THE AIRBAG.

PURCHASED NEW 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SL 3.5L AT APPROXIMATELY 2200 MILES WHEN ACCELRATING AT A STOP LIGHT THE VEHICLE JERKED (AS IF IT COULD NOT CHANGE GEARS), HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY AT FIRST. TOOK VEHICLE TO REPAIR SHOP AT 2 DEALERS IN 2 STATES WHO COULD NOT CAPTURE INFORMATION AT THAT TIME. BY 12000 MILES WHILE RETURNING FROM VACATION (1/4/2015) THE VEHICLE WAS UNDRIVEABLE. TOOK TO LOCAL DEALER AND NEEDED A COMPLETEE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. AT THIS TIME, VEHICLE WAS JERKING, MISSING GEARS, CHANGING GEARS INDEPENDENTLY, TRYING TO GO IN TO A LOWER GEAR WHILE BREAKED AT A STOP LIGHT AND ENGINE WOULD REV TO ACCELRATE, VEHICLE SHOOK, AND WAS LITERALLY DETERIORATING EACH MILE. TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED, AT APPROXIMATELY 14500 MILES, THE SAME VEHICLE SYMPTOMS HAVE BEGUN. TOOK TO DEALER WHILE TRAVELING, THEY WERE ABLE TO CAPTURE MINIMAL DATA BECAUSE AS THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO JERK AND SHAKE, THEIR BATTERY DIED IN THE LAP TOP. HOWEVER, SOME DATA WAS RECORDED. ADVISED TO DRIVE HOME AND FILE COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN MOTORS NORTH AMERICA (WHICH I HAVE DONE,) VEHICLE WILL BE TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALER FOR CONTINUAL STUDY AND NEW TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. WAS ADVISED BY REPAIR MANAGER, THAT TRANSMISSIONS ARE NOW BEING KNOWN TO SEIZE WHILE BEING DROVE. I HAVE REQUESTED NISSAN PURCHASE MY VEHICLE BACK, PAY OFF MY LOAN AND REFUND ANY TRADE IN VALUES AND PAYMENTS MADE ON NMAC LOAN BECAUSE I REFUSE TO REPLACE A TRANSMISSION EVERY 2000 MILES. AT THIS TIME VEHICLE IS SHIFTING SPURATICALLY AT ANY MILEAGE. MORE AT LOWER SPEEDS BUT ALSO AT 70MPH ON HIGHWAYS.

WE RENTED A 2014 ALTIMA S FROM A LOCAL HERTZ RENT-A-CAR AND TRAVELED ROUNDTRIP FROM FLORIDA TO NEW YORK. ON THE RETURN TRIP WE STOPPED AT A REST AREA JUST ENTERING SOUTH CAROLINA. WHEN I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND WENT TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE THE CAR STALLED OUT. I PROCEEDED TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTARTED THE CAR. WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE AGAIN IN REVERSE, AGAIN IT STALLED; TRIED AGAIN TO PUT IT IN DRIVE, AGAIN IT STALLED. I THEN CALLED HERTZ EMERGENCY ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO GET A TOW TO THE NEAREST HERTZ RENTAL WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE TO THE NEAREST AIRPORT. THE TOW CAME IN 45 MINUTES SINCE THE NEAREST RELIABLE TOW WAS IN NORTH CAROLINA. EVEN THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER COULD NOT PUT THE VEHICLE IN GEAR WITHOUT THE VEHICLE STALLING OUT EVEN AFTER COOLING FOR ALMOST AN HOUR. THE CAR RENTAL GAVE US ANOTHER VEHICLE, A NISSAN SENTRA, WHICH WAS THE LARGEST VEHICLE THEY HAD AVAILABLE. LUCKILY WE WERE ABLE TO FINISH OUR TRIP TO FLORIDA WITHOUT ANY FURTHER INCIDENCE. THE RENTAL AGENT OR HIS BOSS COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS PROBLEM HAPPENED; THAT THEY'RE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR MECHANICAL PROBLEMS WITH THEIR RENTALS; THAT SHE'LL GIVE ME A TOKEN DOLLARS OFF MY RENTAL SINCE NO OTHER PLACES WOULD EVEN DO WHAT SHE DID FOR US....UPDATED 07/30/15 *BF UPDATED 9/24/2015 *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH, THE HOOD UNLATCHED INDEPENDENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO FAILED TO DETERMINE A REMEDY FOR THE FAILURE.

I HAVE ONLY HAD MY CAR FOR ABOUT 15 MONTHS AND I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. SO ABOUT A MONTH AGO I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A JERK WHEN I WOULD PUSH ON THE GAS WHEN COMING FROM A COMPLETE STOP. ONE TIME MY CAR EVEN SLIGHTLY SLID AND THE TIRE LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ONCE THAT HAPPENED BUT THEY SAID THAT THE ONLY ISSUE THEY SAW WAS THAT MY WHEELS WERE UNBALANCED. I STILL EXPERIENCE THIS ISSUE FROM TIME TO TIME AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY. I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW CAR FOR A REASON AND THAT WAS TO NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH CAR ISSUES FOR A WHILE.

I BOUGHT THE CAR LAST YEAR AND IT HAS ONLY BEEN ABOUT 13 MONTHS. ABOUT THREE MONTHS AGO, I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A KIND OF JERK WHEN I WOULD START OFF A STOP LIGHT AND ACCELERATE. FIRST THINKING IT WAS NOT A GREAT DEAL, I KEPT GOING HOWEVER I NOTICED IT THAT IT WAS BECOMING MORE CONSTANT. ONE DAY ABOUT TO REVERSE OUT OF A PARKING LOT, I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE, AND THE CAR TURNED OFF. THERE WAS NO RESPONSE AT ALL FROM THE TRANSMISSION. I THEN TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTARTED IT AND IT STARTED WORKING FINE. BEING LATE FOR WORK, I THEN CONTINUED ON AND UNTIL YESTERDAY EVERYTHING WAS OKAY. YESTERDAY, I GOT INTO MY CAR, STARTED IT, SWITCHED TO DRIVE, AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND THERE WAS NO RESPONSE FROM THE TRANSMISSION. I TURNED THE IGNITION OFF, TURNED IT ON AGAIN, MOVED THE SHIFTER INTO REVERSE AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AGAIN. I HAVE SINCE HAD IT TOWED AND IT IS BEING CHECKED AT THE DEALERSHIP. THIS BEING A ONE YEAR OLD CAR, I DO NOT EXPECT IT TO GIVE THESE ISSUES.

2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE OIL LEAKS ISSUE. *SMD CONSUMER SENT ADDITIONAL CORRESPONDENCE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THERE WAS A SMELL OF HYDRO-CARBONS WHEN HE STARTED THE ENGINE. THE DIP STICK SHOWED A DROP OF AT LEAST 3/8 OF OIL ON THE DIP STICK. ALSO, THE AIR BAG ISSUE WAS NOT ADDRESS AND THE PLASTIC PROTECTING THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE FELL DOWN. *JB

MY CAR IS STALLING ON THE HIGHWAY AND SOMETIMES CUTS OFF AT A LOW SPEED. I TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT SEE ANY ISSUES DUE TO THE ENGINE LIGHT NOT COMING ON. I THINK THIS IS A SAFETY HAZZARD BEING THAT THE CAR COULD TURN OFF AT ANYTIME ON THE HIGHWAY. I'M REALLY CONCERN WHEN MY FAMILY (WIFE & KIDS ARE IN THE CAR. PLEASE HELP!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THERE WAS A LOUD POPPING SOUND AND THEN THE SUN ROOF GLASS SHATTERED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE SUN ROOF WAS CLOSED AND THAT THERE WAS NO IMPACT. THE CONTACT WAS NOT SURE IF THE TRACK WAS OFF OR IF THE SEALS FAILED ASSOCIATED WITH THE GLASS FRACTURING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON OPENING THE SUN ROOF, THE GLASS WAS ALREADY FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR FURTHER INSPECTION AND DIAGNOSIS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16,500.

2014 ALTIMA HAS BEEN INTO DEALER FOR PASSENGER AIR BAG ISSUES AND TWICE THEY HAVE DONE THINGS, BUT WE STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM. A PASSENGER OVER 125 POUNDS IS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT SAYING THE AIR BAG IS TURNED OFF IS ON. HAVE TO SHUT THE CAR OFF AND TURN ON AGAIN AND IT WILL THEN GO OUT. MAKES ME WONDER WHAT IT WILL REALLY DO IF WE ARE IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

NEVER RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION ON A NAVIGATION SOFTWARE UPDATE RECALL OR A SECONDARY HOOD LATCH PROBLEM UNTIL I BROUGHT THE CAR IN TO THE DEALER TO ASK WHY THE RADIO AND NAVIGATION SYSTEM WERE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. *TR

I AM WRITING REGARDING PROBLEMS WITH THE NISSAN AIR BAG SAFETY SYSTEM IN MY 2014 ALTIMA. I PURCHASED A 2014 ALTIMA IN AUGUST AND HAVE HAD A RECURRING INTERMITTENT PROBLEM OF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON AND REMAINING ON WHEN I HAVE AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE. MY WIFE WEIGHS 120 POUNDS YET IT IS NOT INFREQUENT FOR THE LIGHT TO GO ON WHEN WE START THE CAR AND THEN REMAIN ON FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, USUALLY BETWEEN FIFTEEN AND THIRTY MINUTES. IT MAY ALSO COME ON AND STAY ON IF SHE GETS IN THE CAR AFTER I HAVE STARTED IT. SINCE LOCAL TRIPS ARE OFTEN LESS THAN THIRTY MINUTES, THERE ARE TIMES WE COMPLETE A SHORT TRIP WITHOUT THE LIGHT GOING OUT. THE LIGHT WILL ALSO COME ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHILE WE ARE DRIVING. DURING ONE OF THESE EPISODES THE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE WE WERE DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE, REMAINED ON FOR JUST OVER AN HOUR, AND THEN WENT OFF. WE HAVE HAD THE CAR EVALUATED BY NISSAN TWICE AND ARE REPEATEDLY TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG. I ALSO WROTE AND SPOKE WITH NISSAN CORPORATE AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THERE IS NOTHING UNDER THE SEAT. THERE ARE NO CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND MY WIFE IS NOT TURNING AROUND IN THE SEAT. I HAVE PICTURES (I CAN FORWARD IF DESIRED) THAT SHOW THE PROBLEM WHILE WE ARE ON THE ROAD. *TR

THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECAME STUCK CAUSING UNWANTED ACCELERATION.

THE SEATBELTS ON MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO LATCH. RECEIVING END RETRACTS BELOW THE SEAT LEVEL WHEN YOU TRY TO LATCH IT. CONTACTED NISSAN CORPORATION THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT TO MY DEALER WHICH WAS ROUTE 23 AUTO MALL, BUTLER NEW JERSEY. BROUGHT IT IN TODAY TO BE CHECKED AND THEY TOLD ME NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE LATCHING MECHANISM OF THE SEATBELT. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. WILL NEVER LEASE/BUY ANOTHER ALTIMA AGAIN. HAD A 2010 ALTIMA AND HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH IT. *TR

PURCHASED 2014 ALTIMA S 9-1-14. RIGHT AWAY HEAR WHINING NOISE FROM STEERING AREA AND UNDER HOOD. AS OF APRIL 2015 ONLY HAVE 1200 MILES BUT HAVE NOT TAKEN TO DEALER. OTHER PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN, SPLASHING NOISE FROM FUEL TANK, WIND NOISE COMING FROM PASSNGER SIDE WINDOW, VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP VEHICLE FROM WANDERING ON HIGHWAY FROM SIDE TO SIDE. THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME BUT READING SIMILAR REVIEWS I NOW KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE NISSAN ALTIMA. *TR

PASS AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN WIFE IS IN PASS SEAT. HER WEIGHT IS 165LBS. IT HAS COME ON A FEW TIMES BUT COULD NOT GET IT TO THE DEALER UNTIL 10/30/14. I WAS TOLD NO DTC'S FOUND. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND IT LIGHTS UP WHEN IT WANTS TO. IT IS NOT SAFE. THE DEALER TECH CONFIRMED OPERATION OF LIGHT TSB#NTB14-027. I HAVE NO DOUBT THE LIGHT WORKS IT'S JUST ON AT THE WRONG TIME. NOT SAFE!!! ONCE AGAIN THE LIGHT COMING ON WITH A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT. DID HUNTER NISSAN HENDERSONVILLE NC SELL ME A CAR WITH A RECALL? IS THIS LEGAL? *TR

THIS ISSUE IS REGARDING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT THAT TURNS ON EVEN WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT PASSENGER OCCUPYING THE SEAT. THE WEIGHT OF THE ADULT PASSENGER (150LBS - 180LBS) IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THE THRESHOLD FOR ACTIVATING THE AIR BAGS. HAVE TAKEN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE DURING MY 3 SERVICE VISITS, BUT EVERY TIME I GET A RESPONSE THAT THERE ARE NO ISSUES WITH THE SENSORS AND THERE ARE NO PENDING RECALLS. IT TOOK ME A LOT OF EFFORT TO MAKE THEM UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS OF NO HELP. THEY MADE ME BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A NON-ISSUE AND I SHOULD IGNORE THE AIR BAG LIGHT. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE AND I'VE NOW A VIDEO/PHOTO EVIDENCE WITH DIFFERENT ADULTS IN THE PASSENGER SEATS. FURTHER, THIS IS VERY ERRATIC. AT ONE INSTANCE, I'VE HAD MY WIFE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHILE THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS OFF AND SUDDENLY TURNED ON WHEN WE WERE CRUISING AT 65MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, THE LIGHT SUDDENLY TURNED ON. IT'S CAUSED A BRIEF PANIC AND WE HAD TO STOP, RE-START THE ENGINE AND THEN IT WORKED FINE. WE'RE VERY SCARED TO RIDE A PASSENGER AND THE DEALERSHIP IS OF NO HELP. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND MANY OTHER USERS HAVING SIMILAR CONCERNS WITH NO RESOLUTION. THIS IS A VERY VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND WOULD REQUEST THE ERRATIC AND FAULTY AIR BAG PROBLEM BE RESOLVED BEFORE WE WAIT TO HEAR ABOUT SOME CASUALTY BECAUSE OF FAULTY AIRBAGS FROM NISSAN. *TR

BLIND SIDE ZONE DETECTION ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLE MALFUNCTION DURING TIMES OF RAINY WEATHER. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR INTO DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES FOR THIS ISSUE AND FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN ( CASE # [XXX] BEING HANDLED BY [XXX]). BOTH DEALERSHIP AND NISSAN HAVE SAID THAT THIS ISSUE CAN NOT BE REPAIRED. AT ISSUE IS THAT DURING RAINY WEATHER THE BLIND SPOT WARNING LIGHTS COME ON WITH NO VEHICLES IN THIS SPOT. THIS CAUSES THE DRIVER TO SWERVE THE CAR TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF A PHANTOM VEHICLE. THIS ALMOST RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT IN FLORIDA ON I-10 THIS PAST MONTH. BOTH DEALERSHIP AND NISSAN STATED TO ME THAT IN THE OWNERS MANUAL IT STATES THAT THIS SAFETY OPTION MAY MALFUNCTION DURING RAINY WEATHER. SO NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THE CAR IS SOLD, IT IS IN THE OWNERS MANUAL, BUT REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM. 1. WHY DOES NISSAN "TOUT" THIS SAFETY FEATURE WHEN THEY KNOWINGLY KNOW THAT IT MAY MALFUNCTION WHEN THE DRIVER NEEDS IT THE MOST? 2. ALTHOUGH IT IS STATED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM, THE OWNERS MANUAL IS NOT GIVEN TO THE CUSTOMER NOR MADE AVAILABLE TO READ BEFORE THE PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE. HOW IS THE OWNER TO KNOW THAT THE SAFETY OPTION THEY ARE PURCHASING MAY MALFUNCTION DURING THE TIME THEY NEED TO USE IT THE MOST? 3. NISSAN'S RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE IS TO JUST TURN OFF THE SAFETY EQUIPMENT YOU BOUGHT DURING RAINY WEATHER. THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE RESPONSE TO A BIG SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. 4. AN ACCEPTABLE REMEDY TO THIS PROBLEM IS: A. FIX THE PROBLEM. B. RETURN MY MONEY TO ME AND I WILL GIVE THE CAR BACK. C. MAKE THE SAME OPTIONS AS A AND B ABOVE TO ALL OTHER CUSTOMERS. THANKS INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

LIGHT DEPICTING THAT PASSENGER AIR BAG WAS OFF WHILE MY WIFE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON FOR 40 MILES. THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED THIS, A SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS RUN AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED. IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR WAS SHOWING A FAULTY IN THE SENSORS BELOW THE SEAT AND THEY WERE REPLACED AND I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED. YESTERDAY THE PROBLEM SURFACED AGAIN. *TR

THE FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG LITE STAYS ON WHILE THE PASSENGER IS SEATED.INDICATING THE AIR BAG IS IN-OPERATIVE. THE DEALER PERFORMED UPDATES, BOTH SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE. THE PROBLEM WAS NEVER FIXED ! AFTER DEMANDING A FACTORY ENGINEER TO INSPECT THE CAR, THE RESULT WAS: SOME OF THESE CARS , THIS FAILURE WILL HAPPEN, AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE" HIS RECOMMENDATION WAS , DRIVE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN OFF THE CAR AND RE-START THE CAR AND THE "COMPUTER" WILL BE RESET ! NOW IN EXCESS OF 4500 MILES, IT STILL FAILS ! *TR

WE WERE ONE OF THE 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA'S THAT WAS EXPERIENCING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG ISSUE: EVEN THOUGH A FULL-SIZED ADULT WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT, THE "AIR-BAG OFF" WOULD BE ILLUMINATED. IT WAS BROUGHT IN UNDER THE RECALL IN ROUGHLY OCTOBER OF 2014. AFTER GETTING THE CAR BACK, WE IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THAT THE LIGHT WAS STILL COMING ON WHEN A PASSENGER WAS PRESENT. WE WERE TOLD THAT IT COULD BE DUE TO HUMIDITY, AS WE LIVE IN FLORIDA. BUT EVEN DURING THE WINTER MONTHS IT STILL READ THAT THE AIR BAG WAS OFF. THIS IS CONCERNING IF IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NISSAN IS NOT PROPERLY FIXING THE ISSUE. I HEARD RECENTLY ON THE NEWS THAT MORE COMPLAINTS ARE COMING FORWARD AND I WANTED TO MAKE SURE MY VOICE WAS HEARD. THANK YOU. *TR

HELLO, I HAVE TAKEN MY BRAND NEW NISSAN ALTIMA 2014 4 TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE PROBLEM NISSAN HAS BEEN HAVING. WHEN THERE IS SOMEONE OVER THE WEIGHT LIMIT SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SIDE THE AIR BAG LIGHT THAT INDICATES IF ITS ON OR OFF DOES NOT COME OFF. STATING THAT THE AIRBAG IS OFF EVEN THOUGH SOMEONE IS SITTING IN HE PASSENGER SIDE WITH THE WEIGHT REQUIREMENT. IT ALL STARTED ON 11/10/14 AND WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG, TOOK IT AGAIN ON 1/14/15 AND THEY SAID THEY FOUND A CODE ( B00A0-00) INDICATING THE AIRBAG WOULD TURN OFF. THEY TOLD ME THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING THE SENSOR AND CONTROL UNIT AND PERFORMED ZERO POINT RESET. THE PROBLEM CAME BACK AGAIN ON 2/3/15 AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG AND THAT IF IT HAPPENS JUST PULL OVER AND TURN OFF THE CAR UNTIL THE LIGHTS TURN OFF AND DOES NOT COME BACK ON. TOOK IT AGAIN FOR THE SAME PROBLEM IN MARCH AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT DO NOTHING EVEN THOUGH THEY KNEW IT WAS NOT WORKING AS INTENDED. *TR

SINCE I LEASED MY CAR IN MAY2014 I FORGOT TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF 4 TIMES . TWICE IT RAN ALL NIGHT IN MY GARAGE BUT FORTUNATELY THE GAS FUMES DID NOT ENTER MY HOUSE WHILE I WAS SLEEPING. I BELIEVE ITS BECAUSE I'M NOT USE TO THE KEYLESS IGNITION SYSTEM. AT FIRST I THOUGHT I MISTAKENLY STARTED THE ENGINE WITH THE REMOTE START CAPABILITY WHILE THE KEY WAS IN MY POCKET. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO THE CAR DEALER AND AT MY REQUEST THEY DISENGAGED THE REMOTE START FEATURE ON THE VEHICLE, RECENTLY THE CAR WAS LEFT RUNNING ALL NIGHT FOR THE SECOND TIME SO I APPARENTLY FORGOT TO TURN IT OFF, I AM ELDERLY AND HARD OF HEARING AND CAN HARDLY HEAR THE ENGINE RUNNING, I WEAR A HEARING AID. IT RUNS VERY QUIETLY. ONCE I LOANED MY DAUGHTER THE CAR AND SHE ENCOUNTERED THE SAME PROBLEM OF NOT TURNING OFF THE ENGINE, I LEARN FROM INTERNET POST THAT COUNTLESS REPORTS HAVE BEEN MADE AND SEVERAL DEATHS BY CARBON MONOXIDE ENTERING HOMES HAVE OCCURRED DUE TO THIS PROBLEM, I UNDERSTAND THE KEYLESS IGNITION SYSTEM HAS BEEN AROUND FOR MANY YEARS AND IS INSTALLED IN MANY DIFFERENT VEHICLES, I WAS NOT AWARE OF IT UNTIL I GOT MY CAR. I FEEL A SAFETY RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BEFORE MORE PEOPLE GET KILLED, THE PUBLIC SHOULD BE MADE AWARE OF IT WITHOUT FURTHER DELAY SINCE COUNTLESS REPORTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN MADE. PLEASE ACKNOWLEDGE RECEIPT OF MY REPORT. THANK YOU. *TR

BRAKES MAKE A LOUD NOISE WHEN PRESSED. DEALERSHIP REPLACED ROTOR BRAKE, CALIPER ASSY - REAR RH, W/O PADS OR SHIMS, PAD KIT - DISC BR, BRAKE FLUID, HARDWARE KIT - REAR DISC BRAKE PAD. *TR

DRIVING AT SPEEDS HIGHER THAN 50MPH CONSTANT STEER CORRECTIONS NEED TO BE DONE IN ORDER TO KEEP THE CAR SAFELY BETWEEN LANES. THE CAR MOVES LEFT AND RIGHT AND CANNOT KEEP A STRAIGHT LINE WITHOUT CONSTANTLY NEEDING TO CORRECT THE STEERING. THIS IS ON CALM WEATHER TODAY 3/10/2015, OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE 49 DEGREES, WIND SPEED 2 MPH FOR WOODBURN, OR AREA ACCORDING TO WEATHER.COM. EVEN IF THERE IS NO WIND, THE CAR FEELS LIKE THERE ARE CROSS WINDS. THIS CAN BE A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM AND COMPLAINS FROM OTHER OWNERS ARE ALL OVER THE INTERNET INCLUDING AT THE DEALER'S SERVICE CENTERS. I AM WORRIED ABOUT HIGHER WIND SPEEDS AND HOW DANGEROUS THAT CAN BE WITH A CAR THAT CANNOT KEEP A STRAIGHT LINE DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT HAS A ELECTRIC STEERING ASSIST THAT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE IT IS SPEED SENSITIVE. IT IS DANGEROUS AS UNEXPECTED LANE SWERVING CAN CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENTS AT HIGHER SPEEDS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO CORRECT THE STEERING ASSIST AND OFFER A MORE SMOOTHER RIDE AND A BETTER HANDLING EXPERIENCE ON HIGHWAYS. THE DEALER SERVICE CENTERS CAN'T DO ANYTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND ARE TELLING YOU TO DEAL WITH IT AND LEARN HOW TO DRIVE THE CAR. *TR

THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. THE INFORMATION PROVIDED ABOVE IS APPROXIMATE AS I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS AN ISSUE UNTIL A RECALL FROM MY NISSAN DEALER ON APRIL 22' 2014. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD IT BACK TO THE DEALER TWO MORE TIMES FOR THE SAME INCIDENT ONLY TO BE TOLD IT COULD NOT BE FIXED, BUT THEY GAVE ME A PROCEDURE TO GET AROUND THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE INVOLVES THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE STAYING LIT EVEN WHEN THERE IS AN ADULT IN THE SEAT. THE LIGHT ON MEANS THE PASSENGERS AIR BAG IS DISABLED. I AM TOLD TO CHECK LIGHT WHILE THE CAR IN ON AND IN PARK AND IF ON, HAVE THE PASSENGER STAY PERFECTLY STILL FOR ABOUT EIGHT SECONDS, UNTIL THE LIGHT GOES OUT. SOMETIMES THIS WORKS, SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. OCCASIONALLY I HAVE TO SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTART IN ORDER FOR THIS TO WORK. MOST TIMES, I FORGET TO CHECK THE LIGHT ONLY TO NOTICE IT ON WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. I WORRY ABOUT NOT NOTICING AND HAVING A FRONT END ACCIDENT. SURELY IN THIS DAY AND AGE NISSAN ENGINEERS CAN FIND A FIX. *TR

PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT WITH BRAKE ON THE CAR ACCELERATED BY ITSELF AND JUMPED THE CURB. WHEN THE BACK TIRES BOUNCED OVER THE CURB THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING.

WHILE TRAVELING AT 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, THE RPMS BEGAN JUMPING. IT WAS ACTING LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WAS SLIPPING. THEN AFTER STOPPING, THE TRANSMISSION TOOK SEVERAL SECONDS TO GO INTO GEAR. A SHORT TIME LATER, THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 60MPH. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CAR HAD UNDER 20,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE READ THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSIONS AND SOME OWNERS HAVE HAD THEIR TRANSMISSIONS REPLACED 5 TIMES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE NAVIGATION SCREEN FAILED TO RESPOND WHILE NAVIGATING. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEAD UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100. UPDATED 4/21/15*CN UPDATED 9/22/2017*CN

THE FIRST INCIDENCE WAS IN OCTOBER, 2014; MY WIFE WAS SEATED IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION, WHEN THE PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF LIGHT LIT UP INDICATING THE AIR BAG SYSTEM FOR FRONT PASSENGER WAS TURNED OFF. SINCE SHE WAS SEATED NORMALLY WITH FULL WEIGHT ON THE SEAT..WE WERE LED TO BELIEVE THE AIR BAG SYSTEM WAS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONING IS TO PULL OVER AND RESTART THE CAR. THE CAR WAS IMMEDIATELY TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOLLOWING THAT INCIDENCE. THE SERVICE ADVISOR, AT THAT TIME, CONFIRMED THAT MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALLED AIR BAGS, HOWEVER, THEY REPROGRAMMED THE COMPUTER AND TOLD ME TO WATCH FOR ANY OTHER INSTANCES. THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT WAS ON 2/8/15, WITH THE SAME CONDITIONS. I QUICKLY SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPT FOR 2/12/15 & REFUSED TO LET ANYONE IN THE FRONT SEAT. WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP ON 2/12/15, THE NISSAN SERVICE ADVISOR DISCUSSED WITH ME A TSB, WHICH SAID THAT "OCCUPANTS WHO ARE PROPERLY SEATED AND CORRECTLY USING THE SEAT BELT, SHOULD NOT CAUSE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG TO BE AUTOMATICALLY TURNED OFF." HE THEN HAD THE CARE INSPECTED BY A SERVICE TECH. FOLLOWING THE INSPECTION, THE SERVICE ADVISOR CAME TO ME AND NOTED THAT THE SYSTEM WAS NOT SHOWING ANY TROUBLE CODES. THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO AND TO LET THEM KNOW IF I HAD ANYMORE TROUBLE. AT THIS POINT I REFUSED TO TAKE THE CAR OFF THEIR LOT UNTIL IT WAS FIXED - I DID NOT FEEL THAT MY FAMILY SHOULD BE SUBJECTED TO A POSSIBLE FAILURE OF THE AIR BAG SYSTEM, INJURY, OR DEATH. IT APPEARED TO ME THAT THOSE OUTCOMES WERE 100% AVOIDABLE. AFTER A FEW CONVERSATIONS INCL THE SERVICE MANAGER, I WAS PROVIDED WITH A DEALER LOANER VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD RESEARCH THE SITUATION. I HAVE ELEVATED THIS TO NISSAN'S CONSUMER AFFAIR SPECIALIST VIA THE 1 800 NISSAN 1, CALL CENTER. I HOPE A SOLUTION IS FOUND QUICKLY. *TR

NEW 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA CAME EQUIPPED WITH HANKOOK OPTIMA H426 P215/60R16 94T TIRES. TIRE BLEW ON FREEWAY GOING 55MPH WITH LESS THAN 16,000 MILES. DEALERSHIP THUS FAR CLAIMING IT IS A TIRE MANUFACTURING ISSUE. *TR

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND RIGHT AWAY I NOTICED THAT THE STEERING WAS NOT RIGHT. THE CAR EITHER GOES LEFT OR RIGHT WILL NOT STAY STRAIGHT. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR A SECOND. THIS IS THE WORST DRIVING CAR I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT IS JUST THE NEW STEERING SYSTEM AND YOU HAVE TO GET USE TO IT. THIS IS A REAL PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. THIS WILL CAUSE ACCIDENTS. HOPEFULLY NISSAN RECOGNIZES THIS QUICKLY AND COMES UP WITH A FIX. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER NISSAN PRODUCT. I AVOID DRIVING THE CAR WHEN POSSIBLE. *TR

[XXX] JANUARY 31, 2015 DEAR SIR: I BOUGHT MY NISSAN, 2014 ALTIMA, IN MAY 2014. I HAVE SCIATIC NERVE PAIN THAT ORIGINATES FROM MY LOWER BACK AND RUNS DOWN MY LEGS SOMETIMES CAUSING ME TO FIDGET IN MY SEAT WHILE DRIVING. ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS, WHILE TRYING TO GET COMFORTABLE IN THE DRIVER SEAT, THE OUTSIDE OF MY KNEE HAS INADVERTENTLY COME IN CONTACT WITH THE OVERDRIVE OFF SWITCH LOCATED ON THE INSIDE POTION OF THE SHIFT HANDLE ON THE CENTER CONSOLE. WHEN THE OVERDRIVE OFF BUTTON IS ENGAGED, I EXPERIENCE A SUDDEN LOSS IN POWER AND THE ENGINE SEEMS TO CONVULSE AND SHUDDER. I IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER, USUALLY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, TO TRY TO GET OUT OF THIS MODE. LUCKILY, THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED TO ME WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY, BUT RATHER AT ABOUT 35 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC CONDITIONS. I FIND IT TO BE AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHICH LUCKILY HAS NOT LED TO ANY TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS. I SEE ABSOLUTELY NO NEED OR ANY SITUATION WHERE I WOULD EVER USE THIS SYSTEM AND THEREFORE SEE NO REASON TO EQUIP THE CAR WITH THIS FEATURE. EVERY TIME I DO THIS, I FEEL I AM DOING DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE OR PERHAPS LEADING TO SOME HUGE EXPENSIVE REPAIR BILL DOWN THE ROAD. AT THE VERY LEAST, THE BUTTON SHOULD HAVE BEEN PLACED IN A POSITION WHERE IT CANNOT BE INADVERTENTLY PUSHED. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PLACED IN A SPOT WHERE YOU WOULD HAVE TO INTENTIONALLY ACCESS IT. I FIND IT TO BE A SAFETY HAZARD AND A CONCERN FOR DOING EXPENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE "PASSENGER AIR BAG" LIGHT SPORADICALLY COMES ON WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE AND BECAME MORE OBVIOUS AFTER AN AIRBAG RECALL SOMETIME LAST YEAR. IT WILL COME ON WHILE DRIVING AND THEN TURN ITSELF OFF AGAIN AFTER 5MIN OR SO. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS, AND FOUND OTHER NISSAN DRIVERS WITH THE SAME VEHICLE, OR OTHER MODELS REPORT THIS SAME ISSUE. NOT SURE IF THOSE REPORTING IT ALSO DID THE RECALL OR NOT, BUT IT IS AN OBVIOUS ONGOING PROBLEM. *TR

DRIVING IN MIDDLE LANE ON EXPRESSWAY IN CHICAGO, WHEN SLOWING DOWN FOR TRAFFIC ACCIDENT AGAIN I THOUGHT I WAS HIT FROM BEHIND BECAUSE MY CAR JUMPED. AS I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, CAR JUMPED AGAIN AND THEN DIED. TOWED TO THE DEALER, WAS FIRST TOLD IT WAS AN ECM DEFECT AND WOULD REPLACE UNDER WARRANTY. THEN RECEIVED A CALL THAT SOME OTHER ERRORS CAME UP REGARDING MY TRANSMISSION. THEY ARE GOING TO REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION BASED OFF THE ERROR BUT WILL HAVE TO PAY THE DEDUCTIBLE. THE ISSUE OF THE CAR JUMPING HAD BEEN HAPPENING PRIOR AND THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. HAD THEY NOT FOUND THE OTHER ERRORS I WOULD HAVE PICKED UP THE CAR THINKING IT WAS FIXED AND THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING 60MPH ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND POSSIBLE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES FROM IT! I HAVE READY MANY REVIEWS ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION THEY HAVE A PROBLEM AND THEY DON'T WANT TO RECALL FOR IT! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RECOGNIZE THE KEY AND DISPLAYED KEY INVALID. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.

PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT ILLUMINATES FREQUENTLY WHEN AN ADULT PASSENGER IS SEATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. AS A RESULT, IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, PASSENGER WOULD NOT BE PROTECTED BY AIRBAGS. DEALER HAS ANALYZED AND INFORMED THAT VEHICLE IS OPERATING EXACTLY AS DESIGNED. VEHICLES HAS ALREADY BEEN REPAIRED PURSUANT TO RECALL CAMPAIGN 14V138000, BUT PROBLEM PERSISTS. *TR

I HAVE NUMBER OF PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE - 2014 ALTIMA SL. SEVERAL TIMES AFTER STOP AND GO TRAFFIC THE TRANSMISSION STOPS SWITCHING GEARS (SPEEDS). IT GETS STUCK ON A FIRST GEAR EQUIVALENT IN CVT TRANSMISSION. THE FIX IS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, OBVIOUSLY THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS ON THE ROAD WHERE THERE ARE NO PLACES TO STOP. ANOTHER MAJOR PROBLEM IS A HEAD UNIT (NAVIGATION, RADIO, ETC). IT RESTARTS BY ITSELF NOW AND THAN, SOMETIMES RIGHT IN A MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY WHEN I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT EXIT TO TAKE AND I NEED THE GPS GUIDANCE. ITS ABSOLUTELY UNRELIABLE. I'M NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE SOFTWARE HERE THAT IS TERRIBLE, BY THE WAY, BUT IN ANY SITUATION IT SHOULD NOT RESTART BY ITSELF! ANOTHER PROBLEM, AS MENTIONED BY OTHERS, IS MILEAGE. I GET MUCH LESS MILES AS ADVERTISED! THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST NISSAN! *TR

SINCE THE DAY I GOT THE VEHICLE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WAS MALFUNCTIONING. THEY REPAIRED 5 TIMES BUT FAILED.FINALLY THEY PROPOSED A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT BUT IT IS UNFAIR. MY REQUEST IS FOR A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE.

VEHICLE IS DRIVEN SEVERAL MILES SO THE ENGINE IS WARM. THREE TIMES THE CAR HAS STALLED WHEN STOPPING AT A LIGHT OR SLOWING AT AN INTERSECTION TO MAKE A LEFT TURN OR RIGHT TURN. WHEN MOVING FROM THE WAITING POSITION THE CAR WILL STALL AND AS AN ONCOMING CAR IS COMING POSES A LEFT THREATNING SITUATION AS IT WILL NOT MOVE FORWARD IMMEDIATELY. CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP 2 TIMES AND BOTH TIMES NOTHING SHOWS ON THE COMPUTER. ALSO, THE CAR WAS DRIVEN THE LAST TIME AND THE STALL IS NOT REPLICATED. BECAUSE THE PROBLEM IS NOT REPLICATED NISAAN REFUSES TO ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR ALTHOUGH A LIFE IS IN JEPORDY DUE TO THE DANGER OF MAKING A LEFT HAD TURN IN FRONT OF TRAFFICE WHEN THERE IS AMPLE TIME TO MAKE THE TURN.

PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON INDICATING A NO ACTIVATION. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS AFTER RECALL REPAIR. NISSAN MOTORS VERY AWARE OF PROBLEM BUT WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. *TR

FROM A STOP, THERE WAS NO RESPONSE WHEN I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR.THEN A SURGE WHEN IT DID RESPOND. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE.THE DELAY SEEMS TO BE GETTING LONGER, SOMETIMES OCCURRING. WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. *TR

HEATED STEERING WHEEL IS A JOKE. HARDLY DOES A THING. I HAVE MORE LUCK RUBBING MY HANDS TOGETHER. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON WITH MY WIFE SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. SHE HAS SET THERE MANY TIMES BEFORE WITH NO PROBLEMS. SO WHEN THE LIGHT CAME ON WITH HERE IN THE SEAT I CALLED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. NOW MY WIFE WEIGHS 130 LB. I WAS TOLD SHE IS AT THE BORDER OF WHAT THE SENSORS IN THE SEAT IS SUPPOSED TO ACTIVATE. I'M NOT GOING TO TELL HER TO GAIN WEIGHT. *TR

THE STEERING OF THE CAR IS ERRATIC. AT TIMES IT'S FINE AND OTHER TIMES THE CAR SKATES ALL OVER THE PLACE. CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH HAVING TO CONSTANTLY OVER STEER. I FEEL LIKE IF THERE WAS A COP BEHIND ME I WOULD BE PULLED OVER AND CHECKED FOR DUI. *TR

NOTICED THAT WHEN HOLDING THE STEERING WHEEL AT THE 9:00 AND 3:00 POSITION AND PULLING STRAIGHT UP THERE WAS .25" OF UP AND DOWN PLAY IN THE STEERING COLUMN. THE DEALER REPLACED THE STEERING COLUMN UNDER WARRANTY ON 11/04/2014. PART # 48810-3TA1B, COLUMN STEERING-TILT. *TR

AFTER SLOWING DOWN OR STOPPING, IE AT AN INTERSECTION WAITING TO TURN OR AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT WAITING TO GO, WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE FROM THE STOP OR SLOW DOWN THERE IS A HESITATION BEFORE THE CAR WILL ACCELERATE PROPERLY. ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, BECAUSE OF THIS HESITATION, I WAS IN DANGER OF NOT GETTING THROUGH THE INTERSECTION OR OF NOT COMPLETING A TURN IN TIME TO AVOID BEING HIT BY ON COMING TRAFFIC. I BROUGHT MY CAR INTO DEALER TODAY (1600 MILES ON ODOMETER), EXPLAINED PROBLEM. THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND CONFIRMED THAT THIS HAPPENS AS I EXPLAINED; TECH DID NOT KNOW WHY UNTIL HE FOUND SERVICE BULLETIN VIDEO. THEY CHECKED SERVICE BULLETIN (SERVICE VIDEO) THAT DESCRIBED EXACTLY WHAT I WAS EXPERIENCING BUT NISSAN INDICATES THAT THIS IS NOT A "PROBLEM" AND THAT IS "NORMAL" FOR THIS 2014 MODEL "CVT SHIFTING"; SAYS IT IS A "NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC" OF THIS 2014 MODEL CVT AND NOT A "PROBLEM". I AM RELUCTANT NOW TO KEEP THIS CAR FOR FEAR OF GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. YOU MIGHT WANT TO CHECK YOUR DATA BASE TO SEE IF 2014 ALTIMA WITH THIS TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN AN UNUSUAL NUMBER OF INTERSECTION ACCIDENTS. *TR

THE VEHICLE HAS A PUSH BUTTON START/STOP. WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE CAN BE LEFT IN GEAR AND THE AUDIBLE WARNING INDICATORS ARE CONFUSING AND INCONSISTENT. AS I WAS WALKING AWAY FROM THE CAR IT WOULD NOT REMOTE LOCK. I LOOKED BACK AND IT WAS ROLLING ACROSS THE PARKING LOT. ANY NUMBER OF TIMES I HAVE LEFT IT IN NEUTRAL BY MISTAKE. THE AUDIBLE WARNING SYSTEM IS TERRIBLE, INCONSISTENT AND THIS IS DANGEROUS. I CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NO FIX AND YOU HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND NISSAN SAID THEY DON'T ACCEPT REDESIGN SUGGESTIONS OVER THE PHONE. I HAD TO JUMP IN THE CAR WITH A BAD BACK AND HIP TO STOP IT AS IT ROLLED ACROSS THE PARKING LOT. VERY DANGEROUS. AUDIBLE DOOR OPEN AND LIGHTS ON WARNINGS ARE INCONSISTENT AS IS THE KEY RECOGNITION SYSTEM. I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR IF I KNEW IT HAD SUCH A DANGEROUS FLAW AND BAD ELECTRONICS.

BLIND SPOT SENSORS ARE GOING OFF WHEN RAINING! WE HAD THIS CHECKED OUT BY THE DEALER TWICE AND NOTHING WAS DONE. ON SECOND VISIT I WAS TOLD THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN DURING INCLIMATE WEATHER AS IT IS NORMAL. THERE WERE SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS AS WELL I LET HIM KNOW THIS WAS UNACCEPTABLE. THERE WAS NO MENTION OF THIS IN THE AUTO MANUALS NOR FROM THE SALES STAFF. I PURCHASED THE EXTRA SAFETY FEATURES TO KEEP MY FAMILY SAFE. THESE FEATURES ARE NEEDED ESPECIALLY DURING INCLIMATE WEATHER.

ON 9/17/14 MY CEL BEGAN FLASHING, CAR SHAKING & LOSING POWER AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY (WHICH IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION WITH NO SHOULDERS TO PULL OVER ON). BROUGHT CAR TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY TRIED TO FIRST TELL ME THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY ISSUE. I FORCED THEM TO CONTINUE TESTING & IT HAPPENED AGAIN & THEY WERE ABLE TO PULL 2 ERROR CODES (MISFIRE & MULTIPLE MISFIRE). AFTER A WEEK OF DRIVING MY CAR AND TESTING, THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX IT. I OPENED A CASE AT THAT TIME TO REQUEST A BUY BACK OR REPLACEMENT OF THIS VEHICLE AS IT IS CLEAR THAT SOMETHING WAS DONE WRONG ON THE ASSEMBLY LINE & SAFETY OF VEHICLE HAS BEEN COMPROMISED. ON 9/26/14, THE DEALERSHIP CALLED AND TOLD ME TO PICK UP MY CAR AS THEY "THINK THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM." I PICKED UP THE CAR, DROVE 5 MILES & ISSUES HAPPENED AGAIN & I NOTICED IT WAS CONSUMING LARGE AMOUNTS OF GASOLINE. BROUGHT IT BACK TO DEALERSHIP & TOLD THEM THAT IT WAS NOT FIXED & IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. ON 9/29/14, NISSAN CORPORATE SENT AN ENGINEER TO PICK UP MY CAR TO TEST THE ISSUES & AFTER DRIVING IT, THE ENGINEER SAID THAT ALL 4 COILS NEEDED TO BE CHANGED. COILS WERE SWAPPED OUT & I PICKED UP THE CAR 10/2/14 AGAINST MY WILL. FULL TANK WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR STATING I'D RECEIVE 540 MILES (NORMAL FOR AN ALTIMA) & 2 DAYS LATER, IT DROPPED ALL OF A SUDDEN BY 100 MILES FOR NO REASON. I ONLY RECEIVED 400 MILES TO FULL TANK & THE MAJORITY OF MY DRIVING IS HIGHWAY MILES. IT IS STILL CONSUMING GASOLINE & IS IDLING ROUGHER. I AM NOW 3 WEEKS IN, 2 SEPARATE ISSUES & MY CAR STILL IS NOT WORKING. IF MY CAR HAS ISSUES 52 DAYS IN AND ONLY 3K MILES, I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT ELSE IS GOING TO HAPPEN.

WHILE DRIVING ON A SECTION OF A US HIGHWAY THAT WAS UNDER CONSTRUCTION, A BUMP WAS ENCOUNTERED WHERE THE PAVEMENT BLENDED WITH OLD PAVEMENT. AT THAT TIME I NOTICED THAT THE WARNING LIGHT FOR NO PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT CAME ON. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT MY WIFE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND HAD BEEN FOR APPROXIMATELY 8 MILES AT THE TIME THE LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OVER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, SHUT THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR. AFTER DOING THIS, THE WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF AND WE PROCEEDED HOME WITHOUT INCIDENT. MY CONCERN IS THAT THE OCS WAS REPROGRAMMED WHEN I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED ON 7/15/2014 AND UNTIL THIS TIME, I HAD EXPERIENCED NO OTHER PROBLEMS SINCE IT WAS REPROGRAMMED. IT APPEARS THAT THE OCS REPROGRAMMING IS NOT CORRECTING THE ISSUE. I TRIED TO CONTACT NISSAN, HOWEVER, IT WAS AFTER HOURS AND I WILL HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY TO REPORT THE ISSUE TO THEM. *TR

THE NEW ELECTRO HYDRAULIC STEERING ON 2013+ ALTIMAS APPEARS TO HAVE A FAULTY SOFTWARE. IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE VEHICLE SPEED SENSITIVE/PROPORTIONAL AT ALL! THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND TIRESOME TO DEAL WITH. NORMALLY, POWER STEERING ESPECIALLY THE ELECTRICALLY ASSISTED STEERING WILL EMPLOY SPEED SENSITIVITY WHICH WILL MAKE IT EASIER TO MOVE THE WHEEL AT LOWER SPEEDS AND HARDER ON HIGHER SPEEDS. THIS IS NECESSARY TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STEADY AND CORRECTED INSTEAD OF WANDERING AND NEEDING TO BE OVERCORRECTED. A CORRECTLY FUNCTIONING ELECTRO STEERING SHOULD THEREFORE MAKE THE STEERING TIGHT AT HIGH SPEEDS > 60 MPH TO KEEP THE CAR CENTERED ON THE ROAD AND GIVE STABILITY TO THE RIDE. ALL ALTIMAS IN THIS GENERATION APPEAR TO EXHIBIT THIS ISSUE INCLUDING THIS CAR GURUS REVIEW - HTTP://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/2014-NISSAN-ALTIMA-OVERVIEW-C24167. THIS IS A MUST RECALL ITEM. *TR

AS THE SPEED REDUCES BELOW 25 MPH, WHEN YOU LEAVE GAS PEDAL, EVEN ON A LEVEL ROAD, THE ENGINE RPM APPEARS TO FALL AT OR BELOW 1000 RPM AND THEN SHOOTS UP TO 1300 RPM. IT THEN STRUGGLES TO FIND THE CORRECT GEAR RATIO AND FLUCTUATES BETWEEN 1000-1500 RPM WITHOUT ANY INTERVENTION. THIS CREATES A JERKY BEHAVIOR AND ACCELERATION WHEN NONE INTENDED ESPECIALLY WHEN ONE INTENDS TO SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE. THERE IS ALMOST ZERO ENGINE ASSIST FOR DECELERATION. INSTEAD OF DROPPING TO AROUND 1000 OR LOWER AND THEN STAYING STEADY THERE, IT DROPS AND JUMPS UP WHICH CREATES DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION ESPECIALLY IN RAIN AND SNOW. RPM APPEARED TO DROP AND THEN SHOOT TO STAY ABOVE 1000 RPM INSTEAD OF GRADUALLY DROPPING AND STAYING STEADY. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND HE REPRODUCED THE ISSUE. HOWEVER, OTHER ALTIMA IN INVENTORY SHOWED SIMILAR BEHAVIOR AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. NISSAN WAS CONTACTED AND WAS TOLD THIS IS A "FEATURE". THIS IS NOT RIGHT - IN FACT THERE HAVE BEEN SIMILAR REPORTS AS FAR BACK AS 2007 ALTIMAS - AND MUST BE CORRECTED. IT APPEARS THAT THEY FIXED AN ISSUE WITH STALLING VEHICLES IN 2013 ALTIMAS AND INTRODUCED NEW PROBLEM WHERE YOU HAVE TO HIT THE BRAKES MANY TIMES TO ACHIEVE STABLE IDLE SPEED OF 750 RPM. THIS IS WEARING MY BRAKES PREMATURELY AND IS A HAZARD IN RAIN AND SNOW WHEN THE VEHICLE ACCELERATES WITHOUT ANY INTERVENTION WHEN IT SHOULD REALLY DECELERATE. I CAN NOT OVERSTATE THE RISK WHEN ONE HAS TO DRIVE 10 MPH OR 20 MPH IN SNOW... *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

CAR WILL SHUDDER AT LOW SPEEDS (15-35 MPH) TOOK CAR IN TO DEALER, THEY UPDATED THE SOFTWARE BUT, THE TRANSMISSION "FAILED' THE DIAG TEST. A NEW TRANSMISSION WAS PUT IN THE CAR. THE CAR STILL WILL SHUTTER UNEXPECTEDLY MOSTLY AT LOW SPEEDS (HOWEVER A COUPLE OF TIMES HAVE BE DOCUMENTED BY ME AT HI-WAY SPEEDS) IN GENERAL, WHEN THE MOTOR RPMS ARE AROUND 1000 RPMS AND YOU GIVE IT A SLIGHT AMOUNT OF ACCELERATION, IT WILL GET IN TO THE TORQUE STALL SITUATION. SO, COMING TO STOP LIGHTS AND THEN NEEDING TO GO BEFORE COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, OR TURNING ON SUBDIVISION WHERE SLOW SPEEDS ARE REQUIRED OR TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT OR PARKING SPACE. HAVE DOCUMENTED MANY MANY DATES WHERE THIS HAS HAPPENED. IT WAS BACK TO THE DEALER BUT, THE HAVE NOT HAD THE ISSUE HAPPEN TO THEM. I HAVE NOT LET MY TEENAGED DRIVERS DRIVE THE CARS AS I DO NOT FEEL IT IS SAFE FOR THEM TO DO SO. THIS SITUATION IS NOT SAFE. *TR

ON WEDNESDAY, JULY 15TH 2014 I WAS LEAVING MY COMMUNITY AND THERE WAS A SECTION ON THE WAY WHERE WATER ACCUMULATES AFTER IT RAINS. DURING MY DRIVE OUT THE COMMUNITY I NEEDED TO GO THROUGH THE PUDDLE OF WATER TO CONTINUE MY EXIT. AS I PASSED THROUGH THE PUDDLE,THE WATER RUSHED INSIDE THE CAR, ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE UNDER THE STEERING WHEEL. IT APPEARS THAT THE WATER RUSHED INTO THE CABIN THROUGH THE STEERING COLUMN. *TR

MAKING A LEFT TURN INTO SHOPPING CENTER AND CAR STARTED JERKING , TWO DAYS LATER GOING THROUGH A 25MPH SCHOOL ZONE AND CAR STARTED JERKING ,TOOK CAR INTO DEALER AND I WAS TOLD THAT THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION WHEN I PICKED CAR UP, ON THE WAY HOME WHENEVER I WOULD SLOW DOWN TO STOP THE CAR WOULD MAKE A WHINING NOISE AND IT WOULD COME TO A HARD STOP, TOOK CAR BACK TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS NORMAL . IT WAS NOT DOINTHAT BEFORE THEY CHANGED THE TRANSMISSION NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS SENT A SPECIALIST OUT TO CHECK THE CAR OUT HE DROVE THE CAR AND HE FELT THE ISSUE , I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE TORQUE CONVERTER LOCKING UP AND THAT WAS NORMAL, TOOK CAR TO ANOTHER DEALER FOR A SECOND OPINION AND HE DROVE THE CAR AND EXPERIENCE THE ISSUE AGAIN I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE TORQUE CONVERTER LOCKING UP , IT MAKES THIS JERKING AT DIFFERENT SPEED LEVELS AND THE WHINING AND HARD STOPPING IS CONSTANT THE SECOND DEALER TOLD ME THAT I MAY HAVE A SOFTWARE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE COMPUTER THAT THEY HOOKED UP TO THE CAR SHOWS NO PROBLEMS I AM STILL EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM . SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE .IT WAS NOT MAKING THE WHINING NOISE AND MAKING THE HARD STOPS WHERE IT MAKES THE CAR MOVE.I AM STILL DEALING WITH THESE ISSUES. *TR

MY SON LOST CONTROL OF HIS VEHICLE DUE TO A SEIZURE , HE HIT A ON COMING 4 WHEEL DRIVE TRUCK PARTLY HEAD ON , THEN ANOTHER TRUCK T-BONE HIM IN THE PASSENGER SIDE. DURING THE WRECK NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ARE THE SEAT BELT RESTRAIN HIM . HIS HEAD WENT THRU THE WINDSHIELD PARTLY AND THE BACK OF HIS NECK BROKE OFF THE HEAD REST. HE HAS NO RELATED ISSUES OF SEIZURES OF ANY KIND IN THE PAST, NO ONE TICKETED FOR THE ACCIDENT PERIOD. WE COME FIND OUT THAT NISSAN MANUFACTURE HAS A RECALL ON THIS CAR BECAUSE OF AIRBAGS PROBLEMS. WE NEVER RECEIVED ANY KIND OF NOTICED FROM THE DEALER SHIP ARE NISSAN MANUFACTURE PERIOD. I' VERY CONCERN ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE EVEN BEING ON THE ROAD PERIOD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA.

WHEN I TURN THE IGNITION NOTHING HAPPENS. ALL I HEAR IS A CLICK WHERE THE CAR IS TRYING TO IGNITE. AFTER TRYING SEVERAL TIMES IT FINALLY CRANKS UP AND START. I'VE HAD THE BATTERY CHECKED AND HAVE TAKEN IT TO NISSAN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND BOTH CAME BACK NEGATIVE. NOT SURE WHAT THE PROBLEM BUT IT IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENT NOW SINCE THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED IN NOVEMBER 2013 AND AGAIN IN APRIL 2014. IF THE ISSUE ISN'T SHOWING UP AFTER PAYING $85 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AT NISSAN, I WONDER IF OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE. *TR

RECENTLY AFTER GETTING THE S/W UPDATED FOR THE RECALL TO FIX THE PASSENGER AIR BAG ISSUE, I STARTED NOTICING THAT THE AIR BAG INDICATOR FOR BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER ARE RED FOR LONGER TIME THAN OTHER DASH LIGHTS DURING THE START OF THE ENGINE. USUALLY, AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE , ALL THE DASH LIGHT WOULD COME AND WITHIN COUPLE OF SECONDS, LIGHTS/INDICATORS IN THE DASH WOULD GO FROM RED TO OFF INDICATING THAT EVERYTHING IS NORMAL. BUT OFF LATE , I NOTICED THAT ONLY THE AIR BAG INDICATOR IS GOING OFF BY AT LEAST 3+ SECONDS, WHICH IN TURN IN SYNC WITH THE PASSENGER AIR BAG. I'M KIND OF WORRIED THAT THE AIR BAG SAFETY SYSTEM IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. PLEASE ADVISE ANY FURTHER ACTION TO GET PROPER ATTENTION FROM THE DEALER. THANKS *TR

ON THE WAY TO GET A CUP OF COFFEE (LESS THAN ONE MILE FROM MY HOME) A CAR STARTED COMING INTO MY LANE. I SWERVED SLIGHTLY TO AVOID A COLLISION AND MY CAR WENT INTO THE DITCH AND HIT A TELEPHONE POLE. OVER $22,000 IN DAMAGE. RADIATOR BENT INTO AN "L" SHAPE. SIDE FRAMES AND ENGINE WENT INTO THE FIREWALL, WHICH TOTALED THE CAR COMPLETELY. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH NISSAN CORP. AIR BAG SAFETY ENGINEER, DEALERSHIP OWNER, GENERAL MANAGER, SALES MANAGER AND THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS $22,000 DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. OFFICER SAID DRIVER AIRBAG AND SIDE CURTAIN AND IN SEAT AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE ALSO DEPLOYED. THEY DIDN'T AND I WAS ALMOST KILLED. THE CAR WAS ONLY 2 MONTHS OLD, NO MODIFICATIONS, AND VERY LOW MILES. KIRO7 TV IN SEATTLE EVEN DID TWO STORIES ON THE CRASH AND AIRBAGS NOT WORKING AND THAT NISSAN HAD ONLY RECALLED PASSENGER AIRBAGS, NOT DRIVER SIDE AIRBAGS. ..UPDATED 07/16/14 *BF

SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA MY WIFE HAD PULLED INTO OUR DRIVEWAY AND "PUSHED" THE STOP ENGINE BUTTON WHILE THE SHIFT LEVER WAS IN DRIVE AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF. THE CAR IMMEDIATELY STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARDS OUT INTO THE STREET INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. WE WERE LUCKY IT DIDN'T CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT! THIS CARS GEAR SHIFT "DOES NOT" HAVE TO BE IN PARK IN ORDER TO "PUSH" THE BUTTON THAT STOPS THE ENGINE IT CAN BE IN DRIVE AND THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF AND THE CAR WILL START ROLLING IF IT IS ON A HILL!.

I HAVE NOTICED THAT IF YOU APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON, IT DOES NOT CUT OUT THE CRUISE CONTROL. I HAVE NOTICED THIS ON TRIPS UP AND DOWN I-95 IN A CAR WITH A HAND EMERGENCY BRAKE. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS KNEE OPERATIONS AND ON LONG TRIPS I TRIED TO JUST PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON WHILE HOLDING THE BUTTON IN. I DID THIS BECAUSE OF TROUBLE WITH MY KNEES. I NOTICED THAT ALTHOUGH THE CAR DID SLOW ENOUGH FOR WHAT I NEEDED THE CRUISE WAS STILL ON WHEN I TOOK THE BRAKE OFF. I REALIZED THAT IF SOMEONE TRIED THIS IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION THAT THE ENGINE WOULD TRY TO ACCEL AND ALL SORTS OF BAD THINGS WOULD HAPPEN. I TRIED THIS IN EVERY MAKE CAR THAT MY FRIENDS AND I HAVE. NO ONE CUTS OUT THE CRUISE CONTROL UNDER THIS SITUATION. I KNOW THE CARS SYSTEMS KNOW THE BRAKE IS BEING APPLIED BECAUSE THE LIKE COMES UP ON THE DASH. IT WOULD BE 1 SIMPLE PROGRAM CHANGE TO INCLUDE THE CUT OUT. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE AN IMPORTANT ISSUE. PLEASE TAKE STEPS TO REMEDY THIS. I HAVE EMAILED THIS TO NUMEROUS AUTO MAKERS. THANK YOU, I HAVE A CONFIRMATION (ODI)#10585659 NHTSA AND CASE#[XXX] NHTSA WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO IN ORDER TO GET THIS LOOKED AT? I REGISTERED A COMPLAINT ON 4-1-2014 AND SENT A LETTER TO THEM.

AFTER DRIVING MY NEW CAR, I NOTICED THAT ABOVE 60 MPH, EVEN WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS HELD STRAIGHT AHEAD, THE CAR WILL VEER EITHER TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT WITHOUT EVER MOVING THE WHEEL - AT RANDOM, REGARDLESS OF CROWN OR TRUCK-RUTTED ROAD. DEALER CHECKED THE STEERING, AS WELL AS ANOTHER NEW ALTIMA; BOTH MADE SIMILAR CLUNKING NOISES LEFT AND RIGHT WHEN PARKED AND IDLED BY MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL A FEW INCHES EITHER DIRECTION. WIND DIRECTION FROM EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT INCREASES THE EFFECT OF CONSTANTLY HAVING TO OVER-CORRECT TO COMPENSATE FOR THE CAR NOT GOING IN THE DIRECTION OF WHERE THE WHEEL IS POINTED. IT IS AS IF, WHEN THE CAR IS "ON CENTER" IT WILL THEN DRIFT LEFT OR RIGHT WITHOUT AFFECTING THE STEERING WHEEL. WHILE THIS OCCURS, IF ONE WERE TO LOOK AWAY FOR EVEN ONE SECOND, EITHER CENTER STRIPE OR SIDE STRIPE WOULD BE CROSSED. IT IS A BAFFLING SITUATION. I HAVE NEVER DRIVEN A VEHICLE, OLD OR NEW, THAT IS CONNECTED AND THEN, IT'S AS IF THE STEERING IS THEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE WHEELS. I WOULD NOT WANT TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE ON SNOW OR ICE. I FEEL SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE NEW STEERING SYSTEM ON THE 2013 AND 2014 ALTIMAS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TRAVELING 40 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS REPAIRED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 14V138000 (AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM), HOWEVER THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 7,071.

BOUGHT 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5 S BRAND NEW FROM DEALER, SAME DAY NOTICED TICKING/RATTLING SOUND WHEN ACCELERATING WITH SLIGHT VIBRATION. TAKE CAR TO DEALER TO GET CHECKED OUT ON 05/24 AND AGAIN ON 05/27. DEALER CONFIRMED THE NOISE, SERVICE MANAGER TELLS ME NOISE COME FROM THE CVT TRANSMISSION, BUT WON'T DO ANYTHING. I BELIEVE THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE REPLACED. IT DOES NOT FEEL SAFE TO DRIVE WITH A TRANSMISSION MAKING STRANGE SOUND. NISSAN DEALER WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING AND SAID IT'S NORMAL. *TR

VEHICLE HAS RECURRING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS A COUPLE OF TIMES PER DAY OVER THE COURSE OF 100 MILE COMMUTE. MOST OFTEN OCCURRING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC 20-35MPH SPEEDS UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. THE TRANSMISSION CAUSES THE CAR TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHILE UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. THE DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO VERIFY OR RECREATE THE PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NSSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD VEER TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT EVEN WHILE THE CONTACT WAS HOLDING ONTO THE STEERING WHEEL. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STAY IN ITS LANE. A POLICE OFFICER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE CAUSE OF FAILURE WAS TORQUE STEERING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING NORMALLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000.

PURCHASED A BRAND NEW NISSAN ALTIMA 2014.THE SECOND DAY OF OWNERSHIP, AT 8 MILES, NOTICED A CLUNKING/THUMPING SOUND AS BRAKING TO FULL STOP. THIS RADIATES UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE AND OCCURS A MAJORITY OF THE TIME WHEN COMING TO A FULL STOP. ALSO THERE IS A STRONG GAS SLOSHING SOUND FROM DRIVER SIDE REAR. THIS HAPPENS WHEN TANK IS HALF FULL TO FULL. RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP THE FIRST TIME THE FIRST WEEK OF OWNERSHIP AND THE DEPARTMENT DID NOT ADMIT HEARING THE SOUNDS UNTIL IT WAS TEST DRIVEN WITH THE OWNER. RETURNED TWO MORE TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH AN NISSAN ENGINEER LOOKING AT IT AFTER MANY PHONE CALLS TO NISSAN. THE SOUNDS WERE HEARD BY THE ENGINEER. ENGINEER STATED THAT HE WOULD TRY TO PACK AROUND THE GAS TANK TO REDUCE THE NOISE. HE DID NOTHING. WE ALSO TEST DROVE TWO OTHER 2014 ALTIMAS AND A 2013 ALTIMA AND THEY ALL HAD THE SAME NOISES!THE CAR WAS READY BY NOON WITH NOTHING CORRECTED. WE HAVE GRAVE CONCERNS WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND GAS TANK. WHAT IS THE IMMEDIATE AND LONG TERM EFFECTS OF THIS CLUNKING/THUMPING SOUND ETC. *TR

ON THE THIRD DAY OF OWNING THIS VEHICLE, I TOOK IT ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS VEHICLE HAS THE WORST HANDLING OF ANY CAR I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. IT DRIFTS ALL OVER THE ROAD WITH LITTLE CONTROL. IF YOU ARE IN A CROSSWIND OR BEHIND A TRUCK, THE VEHICLE DRIFTS HORRIBLY TOO. YOU MUST HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP CORRECTING TO STAY IN YOUR LANE! THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE. I AM VERY UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS HAPPENS MOSTLY AT HIGH SPEEDS UNLESS IT IS A BREEZY DAY, THEN IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME EVEN AT SLOWER SPEEDS. YOU CAN BE DRIVING STRAIGHT FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR DRIFTS HARD TO ONE SIDE. YOU HAVE TO CORRECT QUICKLY IN ORDER TO NOT GO INTO THE NEXT LANE. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. I HAVE HAD THIS INTO MY DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THE FIRST TIME THEY TOLD ME NOTHING WAS WRONG. I JUST NEEDED TO GET USED TO THE WAY IT DRIVES. THE SECOND TIME, THEY ADJUSTED THE REAR ALIGNMENT AND CHANGED OUT TIRES TO MICHELIN TIRES. THIS HELPED A LITTLE BIT BUT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. NOW THE REAR END VIBRATES AND DRIFTS. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR 3 MONTHS AND I CANNOT BELIEVE THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL ON THIS. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED IF SOMETHING IS NOT CORRECTED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR SURE! *TR

I STOPPED THE CAR AND BELIEVED I PUT IT IN PARK. I GOT OUT OF THE CAR--IT DID NOT MOVE. I WENT TO THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR AND GOT MY TWO YEAR OLD OUT OF HER CAR SEAT. I PLACED HER BESIDE THE CAR AND SHUT THE REAR DOOR. I WALKED AROUND BEHIND THE CAR TO THE DRIVER'S DOOR. I TURNED THE CAR OFF LIKE I ALWAYS DO. THE CAR SHUT OFF--AND SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING--BEGAN RAPIDLY MOVING DOWN MY DRIVEWAY. MY BABY WAS AT THE REAR OF THE CAR AND SHE USUALLY FOLLOWS ME. I RAN AND HAD TO JUMP IN THE MOVING CAR. THE FRONT LEFT DRIVER WHEEL NEARLY RAN ME OVER. I TRIED TO GAIN CONTROL OF THIS VEHICLE BY DESPERATELY TRIED TO STOP IT. I WAS ROLLING THE SPEED OF A SKATEBOARD RELEASED FROM THE TOP OF THE DRIVEWAY. THE STEERING WHEEL HAD LOCKED. I HAD TO PUSH HARD ON THE BRAKE. I STOPPED IT AND THERE WERE SKIDMARKS ON THE ASPHALT. I STOPPED THE CAR BEFORE IT SLAMMED INTO MY NEIGHBOR'S CAR. HAD I NOT STOPPED IT AND RISKED PERSONAL INJURY THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A CRASH. I WAS SCARED TO DEATH TO MOVE AND LOOK. I THOUGHT MY BABY WAS DEAD. I THOUGHT THE CAR HAD CRUSHED HER. MY NEIGHBOR TOLD ME MY DAUGHTER HAD BEEN MISSED BY INCHES. WHEN I LOOKED AT THE GEARSHIFT, IT WAS IN D. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW IT SHUT OFF IN DRIVE. IT ALMOST KILLED MY DAUGHTER, DAMAGED PERSONAL PROPERTY, AND I AM INJURED. I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS: THEY STATED THAT THIS HAPPENS "IN ALL AUTOMATIC CARS." WHICH THAT IS FALSE. I CALLED BACK TO TELL THEM I HAD FRIENDS AND FAMILY WITH VARYING 2014 PUSH BUTTON CARS TRY AND TURN THEIR CARS OFF IN D. NONE OF THEM WOULD TURN OFF UNLESS IN PARK. WHAT IS SOMEONE WAS DRIVING AND ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE BUTTON ON THE FREEWAY? LOSS OF STEERING, BRAKES, CONTROL??? THIS IS A FATAL ENGINEERING PROBLEM. I KNOW GM HAD A HUGE RECALL FOR SIMILAR. NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS TOLD ME " THERE WOULD BE NO RECALL" AND THAT I SHOULD "BE MORE CAREFUL." *TR

EXAMPLE 1. WHILE DRIVING IN MY TOWN HOME COMMUNITY AND SLIGHTLY TURNING RIGHT WHILE GOING UP A SLIGHTLY INCLINED ROAD THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND IT SEEMS THE TRANSMISSION IS LOCKING UP. GOES AWAY EITHER BY REMOVING ALL PRESSURE ON ACCELERATOR OR IF EXCESSIVE ACCELERATOR PRESSURE IS APPLIED. THE TYPE OF ACCELERATOR PRESSURE NEEDED TO STOP THE EXCESSIVE SHAKING WOULD BRING THE VEHICLE TO A SPEED THAT IS UNSAFE RELATIVE TO OBSERVED SPEEDS LIMITS IN COMMUNITY. EXAMPLE 2. THESE EXHIBITED SYMPTOMS HAVE ALSO OCCURRED WITH AN INCREASING FREQUENCY WHILE DRIVING ON CITY ROADS IN LIGHT TO MODERATE TRAFFIC: WHEN YOU ARE COASTING UP TO SLOWER MOVING TRAFFIC IN FRONT OF YOU AND THEN NEED TO ACCELERATE AS THAT TRAFFIC INCREASES SPEED, THE CAR WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THIS OCCURS MOSTLY AT SPEEDS UNDER 30 -35 MPH BUT HAS BEEN FELT AT SPEEDS AS HIGH AS 55 MPH. IT FEELS AS THOUGH THE ENTIRE DRIVE TRAIN OF THE VEHICLE IS GOING TO FALL OUT OF THE CAR. VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 1200 MILES ON ODOMETER AND SYMPTOMS HAVE BEEN INCREASINGLY NOTICEABLE AND FREQUENT SINCE 605 MILES ON ODOMETER. SEPARATE ISSUE: NAVIGATION / AUDIO SYSTEM HAS FROZEN SCREEN UPON START UP AND BECOMES UN RESPONSIVE. NO ABILITY TO CHANGE PREVIOUS VOLUME LEVEL OF RADIO WHICH MAY HAVE BEEN LEFT AT HIGH VOLUME LEVEL DURING PREVIOUS DRIVE. INPUT IS NOT ACCEPTED ON HEAD UNIT OR STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS. NAVIGATION WILL NOT INITIATE. CAR MUST BE RESTARTED FOR SYSTEM TO REBOOT AND THIS MAY REMEDY THE PROBLEM FOR ONE DRIVE CYCLE OR MORE. HAS OCCURRED 5 OR MORE TIMES IN FIRST MONTH OF OWNERSHIP. SHOULD A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE IN THE DRIVE TRAIN OCCUR, I FEEL THAT I AM AT RISK OF SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. ADDITIONALLY I AM CONCERNED THAT RESALE VALUE OF VEHICLE WILL BE DIMINISHED DUE TO DAMAGE CAUSED BY INHERENT DESIGN FLAW IN POWER TRAIN AND IN-CAR ELECTRONICS. *TR

TL- THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALITMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHEN HER GAS TANK IS FILLED OR HALF WAY FULL, THE FUEL IN THE TANK MAKES LOUD SLUCHING NOISES. THE CONTACT TOOK HER VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE DEALER RECOMMENDED THE CONTACT TO FILE A CLAIM WITH THE MANUFACTURER BECAUSE THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPAIR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THIS WAS A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE AND NOT A DEFECT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8. AZ

POWER STEERING MAKES A VERY ANNOYING WHINE THAT MAKES THE CAR UNDRIVEABLE AT LOW SPEEDS. WENT TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THIS IS NORMAL? I CANT EVEN ENJOY MY NEW CAR AND APPARENTLY A LOT OF THESE PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. NISSAN FIX THIS POWER STEERING!! *TR

THE DRIVER IN FRONT OF ME SUDDENLY STOPPED AND WHEN I APPLIED HARD PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES THEY DID NOT REACT QUICKLY, CAUSING THE CAR TO CONTINUE ROLLING AND HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IT HAPPENED - THE FIRST TIME BEING IN EARLY SEPTEMBER. BOTH TIMES THE CAR WAS EITHER STATIONARY OR BARELY MOVING AND A HARD BRAKE DIDN'T RESPOND LIKE IT SHOULD.

WHILE DRIVING IN NEW YORK, I SUDDENLY HEARD A POP, AND REALIZED THAT THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PASSENGER'S SIDE. THE CRACK IS ABOUT 10 INCHES LONG, AND STARTS AT THE VERY EDGE OF THE WINDSHIELD, GOING TOWARDS THE CENTER OF THE PASSENGER'S SIDE OF IT. THERE WAS NO IMPACT, NO GRAVEL, NO ROCKS HIT THE WINDSHIELD. THERE ARE NO CHIPS, AND NO PLACE OF IMPACT, THE CRACK APPEARED OUT OF NOWHERE. CALLED THE DEALER, THE DEALER REFUSED TO REPAIR THE WINDSHIELD UNDER WARRANTY, AND ADVISED ME TO CALL THE INSURANCE COMPANY. *TR

I WAS AT AN INTERSECTION PREPARING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. WHEN THERE WAS AN OPENING IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC I PUSHED THE GAS PEDAL TO PROCEED FORWARD AND AS I ENTERED THE INTERSECTION THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DROPPED THE RPM'S AND ACTED AS IF IN "LIMP MODE". I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR TO THE FLOOR TO TRY TO GET OUT OF THE INTERSECTION BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND AND ONLY "CRAWLED" THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. BECAUSE I COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE INTERSECTION DUE TO THIS ISSUE ONCOMING TRAFFIC HAD TO SLAM ON BRAKES AND ALMOST HIT ME. ONCE I EXITED THE INTERSECTION I LOOKED FOR A PLACE TO PULL OVER AND STOPPED ABOUT A 500 YARDS FROM THE INTERSECTION. I THEN NOTICED THE VDC LIGHT WAS ON. I PRESSED THE VDC BUTTON AND IT LITE UP ANOTHER INDICATOR ON THE DASH SHOWING OFF. I PRESSED IT AGAIN AND THE LIGHT WENT OUT HOWEVER THE OTHER VDC LIGHT ON THE DASH STAYED ILLUMINATED. I THEN TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND WAITED A COUPLE MINUTES AND WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE THE OTHER VDC LIGHT WAS OFF AND THE VEHICLE THEN DROVE NORMAL. I HAVE SINCE NOTICED A SOUND LIKE THE TRANSMISSION SPINNING WHENI PRESS THE ACCELERATOR. I WAS SCARED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE SO I WENT HOME. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND HAD THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM BUT WAS TOLD THERE WERE NO "FAULT CODES" AND THEY DID NOT KNOW WHY MY NEW CAR WHEN INTO "LIMP MODE" AND THE VDC LIGHT CAME ON. THIS CAR IS NEW AND NOW I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT! THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE SAID IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN BRING IT BACK. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS PROBLEMS ON OTHER INTERNET CAR FORUMS REGARDING OTHER NISSAN ALTIMA'S WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. THERE IS EVEN ANOTHER ONE ON THIS SITE! THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY DEFECT AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED ASAP. I COULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESPOND TO THE ACCELERATOR NO MATTER WHAT I DID. *TR

PROBLEM IS, MY GIRLFRIEND WEIGHT 110LB. LOT OF TIME WHEN SHE SITS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, THE AIRBAG INDICATOR TELLS US THE AIRBAG IS OFF. THIS PROBLEMS ONLY HAPPENED WHEN I PICKED UP MY CAR ON THE STREET NEXT TO CURBS. DESIGN OF ROADS IS, THE CENTER IS HIGHER THAN THE SIDES. BECAUSE OF THAT, WHEN I PARK ON THE RIGHT OF THE STREETS NEXT TO THE CURBS, THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CAR IS HIGHER THAN THE RIGHT SIDE. SO WHEN MY GIRLFRIEND SITS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, HER WEIGHT DOESNT GOES TO THE CENTER OF THE SEAT. BUT IF THE CAR IS ON SURFACE LEVEL SUCH AS IN A GARAGE, AND SHE GET IN THE CAR, WE HAVE NO AIRBAG ISSUE. *TR

IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING THE CAR, WITH A PASSENGER IN THE FRONT SEAT, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF LIGHT CAME ON. I DROVE FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND GOT UP TO 60MPH BEFORE IT FINALLY SHUT OFF. THIS HAPPENED MORE THAN ONCE, THE ABOVE DATE IS THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED THOUGH. *TR

NO UNUSUAL SOUNDS OR CHECK ENGINE NOTICED WITH THE FOLLOWING: 1) WHILE SITTING IN CRAMPED TRAFFIC, I LET OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL TO INCH FORWARD A FEW FEET WHILE RIDING THE BRAKE. RMS DROPPED TO 500 FOR EVERY INSTANCE AND CAR BEGAN TO SHUTTER. *TR 2) COMING TO STOP LIGHTS/SIGNS. AFTER TRAVELING A DISTANCE OF ABOUT 1/8-1/4 MILE @30-40 MPH, THE DECELERATION CAUSED THE RPM TO DROP TO 500 AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHUTTER AS I REACHED THE STOPPING POINT. I NOTICED THIS EVERY NOW AND THEN. I CANNOT REPLICATE, HOWEVER I WAS ABLE TO RECORD THE RPM DROP ON TWO OCCASIONS WITHIN 5 MIN OF EACH OTHER. 3) SHUTTERING THAT OCCURS AT LOW SPEEDS IS FELT AT HIGHER SPEEDS (50+).FEEL THE SHUTTERING AS IF TRANSMISSION WAS TRYING TO GET TO NEXT GEAR, BUT IT HOLDS STEADY AND VIBRATES. NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE. VERY UNCOMFORTABLE RIDE. 4) AT RANDOM PERIODS OF JUST WAITING IN THE CAR WITH IT RUNNING, WILL FEEL SURGE AS RPMS DROP FOR AN INSTANCE. TOOK VEHICLE IN BASED ON COMPLAINTS. SERVICE CENTER INITIATED THE CAR TO "RE-LEARN" IDLE. ISSUE 1, NO LONGER A PROBLEM THUS FAR. ISSUE 2, STILL AN ISSUE. ISSUE 3 STILL AN ISSUE. ISSUE 4, STILL AN ISSUE. TAKING IT BACK TO SAME DEALER AGAIN, AND ANOTHER DEALER FOR A 2ND SERVICE TEAM DIAGNOSTICS. *TR

THE SUNLIGHT REFLECTS OFF OF THE BEIGE AND GLOSSY BLACK INTERIOR FINISHES AND CAUSES A MIRROR IMAGE OF THE INTERIOR SURFACES/GLARE ONTO THE FRONT AND REAR WINDSHIELDS. THE GLARE ON THE GLASS IS VERY BRIGHT AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND TRAFFIC SIGNS AS WELL AS ANY OTHER OBJECT IN THE GLARE ZONE. THE GLARE ZONE RANGES BETWEEN 20 TO 50% OF THE WINDSHIELD AREA. THIS DESIGN FAULT WAS CORRECTED IN OTHER NISSAN CARS BUT NOT IN THE ALTIMA. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND WAS ADVISED "NO CORRECTION CAN BE MADE AT THIS TIME". *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASH INTO THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED A SEPARATED HIP. THE TWO REAR PASSENGER SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE BACK, SPINE AND WHIPLASH INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER HOWEVER, THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND SENT AN ENGINEER TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 400.

THE STEERING WHEEL STARTS TO SHAKE AND I FEEL MY GAS PEDAL VIBRATE WHEN DRIVING APPROX. 30-40 MPH AND UP. NISSAN TECHNICAL SERVICES MECHANIC SAID THAT IS NORMAL FOR NISSAN ALTIMA 2013/2014. *TR

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A TURN AT A STOP LIGHT, VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE AND SLOW DOWN. IT FELT AS IF IT WAS GOING TO LOSE POWER. I HAD TO PUSH THE ACCELERATOR HARDER THAN EXPECTED AS THERE WAS ANOTHER VEHICLE BEARING DOWN ON ME IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS IS A NEW VEHICLE. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND IT APPEARS TO BE A TORQUE CONVERTER ISSUE. THE SHAKING IS NOT AN ISSUE IN ITSELF, HOWEVER IT COULD LEAD TO ACCIDENTS IF SOMEONE IS MAKING A TURN AND NEEDS TO GET OUT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC AS THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SEEM TO RESPOND AS EXPECTED. *JS
