2013 Nissan Altima Other Problems

Your rear suspension links have rusted out completely. A repair shop indicated you have significant rust damage throughout your vehicle that will require substantial work to fix. This appears to be a widespread rust problem affecting many Nissan vehicles. Repairs will likely involve replacing the corroded suspension components and treating other rusted areas on the vehicle.

None

Passenger airbag safety light does not light up as it should, shows passenger isn't wearing seat belt when they are. Airbag might not deploy under these conditions. There was a recall for this, took to dealership, was not corrected. Transmission stalls and studders, will not accelerate due to faulty CVT. Causes near miss accidents. Shift lock occasionally prevents car from changing from park, reverse, drive.

Delayed acceleration after making a stop, high RPMs when accelerating after making a stop. All above conditions appears to happen randomly.

Hood latch cable snatched it was recall on thi vehicle

My son was driving on the highway when all of a sudden the car would no longer excel when he pressed on the gas. He immediately moved over in traffic to get to the side of the road and just barely made it before the car completely stopped moving. He was very lucky that he reacted in the way he did being a new driver on the road. This could have been EXTREMELY bad if he didn't think to move over and in the correct direction to make it all the way through traffic around him. The transmission is the component that failed. The issue was inspected and confirmed by the dealer and replaced. No warning lights came on when this issue occured.

Steady Check Engine light came on April 25, 2023. Just had oil change/filter done day before. Had tune-up done May 25, 2023. Had mechanic who replaced my catalytic converter and (2) O2 sensors a year ago check my car. Found that the inside of the catalytic converter was melted. They checked for a fuel leak in engine, none found. Replaced catalytic converter and front O2 sensor. As of today, no Steady Check Engine light has come back on. I think a Flashing Check Engine light should have displayed for something as serious as a fuel leak. What if my car caught fire while driving? Also, I was told several years ago by a local Nissan dealer that my driver side airbag would need replacing - that indicator light never came back on the dash board either. Faulty sensors? I notified Nissan in TN by mail.

Local (Rockwall Texas) Nissan dealership does not have the parts for recall on 1n4al3ap7dn404470. I've been waiting for a year.

The CVT was making noise and vibrated. We did some research on line and read that the 2013 Nissan Sentra already had a transmission recall and many reported safety incidents. We saw many complaints for the 2013 Altima transmission but no recalls. The dealer said the transmission must be replaced but we would have to pay for it and they would contact us if a recall was announced. There was a recall for the CVT software and the owner notification states that that this issue could lead ro accelerated wear and damage to the CVT. I would think that they would then need to cover a failed transmission.

My car will not got out of gear without pressing the shift lock release button.

Unable to engage automatic gear shift from park to drive or reverse. Must use small object, (screwdriver) with brake to place in drive.

1. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? ANSWER While opening all three of the passenger doors from the inside something internally inside the door has broken preventing all three of these doors to open from the inside. 2. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? ANSWER This is a safety risk because we are unable to open the door from the inside and if there were an accident we would not be able to exit the vehicle. 3. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center?ANSWER Yes, the problem has been confirmed by the dealer. 4. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? ANSWER No, the doors have not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. 5. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? ANSWER No, there were no warning lights that came on warning me about this.

I’m currently overseas in Germany and do not have any manufactures capable of making repairs until I arrive back in the states oct 15 2022.

Shift stuck in park. Shift assembly needs replacing due to bad interlock solenoid. $1000.00 to fix. This problem has affected many cars and Nissan will do nothing about it.

Got recall for hood latch handled in September of 2021. While driving on the highway at 70 mph the hood flew open which caused severe damage to vehicle and almost causing numerous of crashes. Vehicle is being repaired per dealer however this is the third time this issue occurred and at this point I am afraid to drive the vehicle and nervous for anyone with these vehicles to continue driving them honestly. I am unsure what to do at this point considering what if this happens again and the outcome isn't as good as previously. I just feel as though if this issue can't be corrected after 5 recalls why continue to have these vehicles on the road.

2013 Altima 3.5 SL. the passenger door handle popped and wont open from the inside, you have to roll the window down and open it from the outside, if you cant get out of your car in an emergency it is a life or death situation.

My automatic vehicle is stuck in park- either the shift lock solenoid component or the actual assembly and/ore electric that activates the ability to move out of park is defective. If you use a tool and manually override shift lock you can move out of gear. There are thousands of complaints and videos online about this same issue. The fix is anywhere from 500 to 1k at a repair shop. This is an extremely dangerous condition as there is no way to ever quickly get out of the way - of anything- if your vehicle is in park.

CVT Transmission failed, they know the 2013 model has a bad transmission and instead of recalling it they only did an extended 2 year warranty in a class action lawsuit. The car should not be on the road we just paid our car off not knowing about this issue and the car stopped in the middle of traffic and would not drive. We got it towed to a Nissan Dealership to find out it needs a new Transmission and that's when we learned about all the issues of the CVT Transmission issues on the 2013 model. Uploaded towing bill, do not have the invoice from the dealership yet but they are stating 5900.00 to replace the transmission which is crazy now seeing everything online knowing it's a faulty part.

secondary hood latch failed. while driving on the street at about 35 MPH, hood flew open causing very limited visual. upon pulling over, damage was visible on the fenders of left and right side. dealer claims not liable for any repairs.

I had driven the car less.than one half mile when car stalled.. When I tried to restart the car it continued to stall When I shifted to drive. No prior warning was given

The gear shifter in my 2013 Nissan Altima will not shift. I turn on the vehicle. I then place my foot on the brake and push the button to shift gears and nothing happens. The unit is locked I cannot shift to any gear. I has to tow the vehicle home. I did not find out until later that a plastic piece can be popped out and a screwdriver or key could be pressed on the mechanism inside the hole to release the gear shifter to shift. In recent times there have been random shootings and car jackings in and around the Chicago area. I am very concerned with this for I or a family member could become a victim if the situation is presented. With no way to shift gears, we cannot avoid a potential emergency situation.

Gear shift stays stuck in Park and takes 10 minutes to get out of Park if the safety button works. This is a known problem with Nissan's all over social media and youtube has videos about this issue with the gear shift going out and not functioning.Please add this to the recall please take the time so consumers can drive safely again.

Component malfunctioned - Driver sun visor comes down randomly & always over bumps. 2013 Altima is available for inspection. Risk factor - Visor came down randomly while I was driving in rush hour beltway traffic and hit me in the nose, blurred my vision and put me and my passenger at severe safety risk. Problem confirmed by independent service center No other inspections No warnings. First started in 2018 but has gotten progressively worse to the point of almost causing accidents due to hindering my vision while driving and/or hitting me in the face.

I went to recall for Altima hood latch no repair, alt rge cvt p0766 ntb16-121, max alt rg mur ocs ntb16-052 and altima hood latch ntb16-011. There were no safety issues with vehicle operation before the recall. The KatyNissan called me on June 7th to notify me that they fried the components during the computer diagnosis. The KatyNissan told me that they will charge Nissan USA for it. I went to the KatyNissan to pick up my car on June 8th, the transmission and i-key warning lights appeared on the head-up display. I called the person in charge and said, "Why is this happening?" He asked me to pay $100 to re-synchronize the car keys because he reprogramed the car computer due to the fry up, and the car jerks violently when shifting the gear. After the pickup, I got a new state registration tag and went back home. MIL warning sign appeared on the head-up display. On the next day morning on June 9th, I brought my car to the dealer for repair. The KatyNissan explained this situation to Nissan USA and Nissan USA stated that they are not responsible for the fry-up during the computer system diagnosis so the KatyNissan and I should split up the expenses in 50:50. I believe this statement is unreasonable, the dealer should take full responsibility.

My vehicle Altima 2.5 S Nissan 2013, I only drove to work very only 67k miles but lately the gear shifter stuck every time I started, I had to stick a key or screw driver into the shrift lock to make it released it, very dangerous to drive with gear shifter stuck all the time... never happened to me with most cars I bought.. this gear shifter stuck supposed to recall back to fix it right for me, this is second car I purchased from Nissan.

THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HANDLE WILL NOT OPEN THE DOOR, I HEARD AND FELT A CRACK WHEN TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. YOU HAVE TO OPEN BY USING THE OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLE. IF THIS CAR WAS TOO BE IN AN ACCIDENT THE PASSENGER COULD BECOME TRAPPED INSIDE. THIS HAPPEN WHILE PARKED.

CAN'T SHIFT OUT OF PARK. MULTIPLE NISSAN VEHICLES OF THIS EXACT MODEL YEAR HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. OVER 500+ COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN MADE ABOUT THE SHIFT LEVER GETTING STUCK IN PARK, AND THE ISSUE IS DUE TO A WEAK PLASTIC BIT THAT BREAKS ON THE INSIDE OF THE CENTER CONSOLE. THIS WOULD BE A MAJOR ISSUE FOR SOMEONE TRYING TO MOVE THEIR CAR WHEN STUCK IN TRAFFIC AFTER PUTTING IN PARK, ONLY TO REALIZE THEY CAN'T TAKE IT OUT OF PARK. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALER, TO WHICH QUOTED ME 400$ FOR THE REPAIR COSTS AND THEN LET ME KNOW OF MULTIPLE PEOPLE WHO HAVE CALLED WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. THIS TYPICALLY HAPPENS AROUND 75,000 MILES. THIS CAN BE A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN, AND SHOULD BE RECALLED DUE TO THE NUMBER OF ISSUES THAT OWNERS HAVE HAD WITH THE EXACT MODEL.

DEFECTIVE CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION

I COULD NOT SHIFT THE GEAR OUT OF THE PARK POSITION.

OUT OF KNOW WHERE MY CAR WILL NOT GO INTO DRIVE, STUCK IN PARK. SO I BEEN HAVING TO PUSH IN THE SHIFT LOCK. I NEED TO BE ABLE TO GOTO AND FROM WORK AGAIN WITHOUT DOING THIS. WHAT DO I DO

ON ROUTE 414 HEADING SOUTH GOING ABOUT 49, MY HOOD POPPED OPEN AND BUSTED MY WINDSHIELD. NISSAN TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM AND THAT THEY COULD NOT HELP ME WITH FIXING, REFUNDING OR TRADING FOR ANOTHER CAR. I AM EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED THAT THEY WILL NOT HELP GET ME IN A SAFER CAR. I ALSO ASKED ABOUT A LOANER UNTIL THIS COULD BE FIXED AND THEY SAID NO.

MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA SL KEEPS STALLING ON ME WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THE DECODER STATED IT WAS THE MAX AIR FLOW SENSOR, I REPLACED IT, I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAD A TUNE UP DONE EVEN THOUGH I HAVE LOW MILES. NO ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. I READ SOME REVIEWS AND I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THE THE SAME CAR OR YEAR HAVING THIS ISSUE. YOU TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TELL ME NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT.

MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS RUSTED. THERE WERE OTHER PARTS THAT WERE ON A RECALL BECAUSE OF RUSTING I'VE HAD REPLACED, BUT THERE IS STILL MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER THAT IS RUSTING AS WELL. THIS IS ALL DOCUMENTED IN MY LAST SERVICE REPORT

WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK, APPARENTLY IT IS A SOLENOID ISSUE THAT NISSAN WILL NOT RECALL.

ALL INTERIOR DOOR LATCHES DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. DOORS DO NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE. A SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECT.

SHIFTER RELEASE IS STUCK

ON ONE DAY I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE DOWN THE STREET HEADING TOWARDS THE FREEWAY. I WAS GOING TO TAKE THE STREETS BUT THE FREEWAY IS ALWAYS THE FASTEST OPTION. I GOT ON THE FREEWAY WITH NO PROBLEM AND STARTED TO INCREASE SPEED. AS I SPED UP, I STARTED TO FEEL MY CAR SHUTTER. I CONTINUED WITH MY DRIVE AND THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT. IM HEADING TOWARDS MY EXIT AND I START TO STOP MY CAR, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR COMES TO A COMPLETE TURN OFF WHILE EXITING THE FREEWAY. I ALMOST HIT TWO CARS AND ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. AT FIRST I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO BECAUSE I WAS IN FEAR OF MY SAFETY. I LOOKED DOWN AT THE DASHBOARD OF MY CAR TO SEE WHAT IT COULD POSSIBLY BE AND NO WARNING LIGHTS OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS DISPLAYED. I WAS STILL IN SHOCK BECAUSE I COULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT OR EVEN DEAD. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND THEN TURNED THE CAR OFF. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND IT STARTED PERFECTLY NORMAL LIKE NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. WITH A LOT OF TRAFFIC AND ABOUT 3 CARS HONKING AT ME, I THEN PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE AGAIN AND SHORTLY DOWN THE STREET A COUPLE BLOCKS AWAY THE CAR DOES IT AGAIN TO ME, THIS TIME ALMOST CAUSING ANOTHER ACCIDENT. I WAS SO TERRIFIED I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO A MECHANIC WHERE HE SAID THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON WITH NISSAN ALTIMA TRANSMISSIONS PARTICULARLY THE 2013 MODELS. I REACHED OUT TO THE CORPORATE OFFICE AND I WAS ADVISED THAT I HAVE NO WARRANTY OR COVERAGE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS VERY SERIOUS AND SAD BECAUSE THE MAKERS OF THIS VEHICLE COULD HAVE TAKEN MY LIFE. I PUT MY TRUST AND MONEY INTO A VEHICLE TO FIND OUT IT HAS PROBLEMS THAT NISSAN ARE WELL AWARE OF AND WILL NOT BOTHER FIXING. THE CAR ONLY HAS AROUND 80,000 AND I'M STILL PAYING IT OFF. IM JUST STILL IN SHOCK BECAUSE I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT.

COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT NEARLY 122,000 MILES IN THE MIDDLE OF A MAJOR INTERSTATE WHEREIN THE VEHICLE COULD NOT TURN BACK ON. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, THERE WERE WEEKS OF JERKY SHIFTING, THE CAR WAS UNABLE TO COAST, QUICKLY ACCELERATE, OR COME TO A STOP WITHOUT JERKING THE CAR UNTIL STOPPED. THE IDLE OF THE CAR WAS UNUSUALLY HIGH NEAR THE DAY OF FULL TRANSMISSION FAILURE. AFTER COMPLETELY REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION WITH A BRAND NEW ONE, THE CAR STILL IS HAVING TROUBLE SHIFTING SMOOTHLY.

REPLACED THE BATTERY AND NOW BRAKE LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIKE IS ON AND WON'T START. BRAKES ARE HARD. CAR WAS PARKED FOR 2 DAYS AND CAME OUT TO A DEAD BATTERY. REPLACED BATTERY AND THE COPPER BATTERY CONNECTOR. WENT TO START IT AND THEN ALL THESE OTHER ISSUES HAPPENED. *TR

THE SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID HAS FAILED IN THE CAR. I CAN NOT TAKE THE CAR OUT OF PARK.THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG NISSANS AND THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM. NUMEROUS DEALERS HAVE SAID THAT THE PIECE IN THE SHIFT LOCK THAT NISSAN USES IS DEFECTIVE. NISSAN IS REQUIRING ME TO PAY $1,000 TO FIX.

GEAR STUCK IN PARK UNABLE TO SHIFT OUT OF IT. HAPPENS EVERY TIME I PARK MY CAR OR PUT IT IN PARK. NOTICED THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR SOMETIME SINCE 2016. I THINK THIS NEEDS TO INVESTIGATED AND A RECALL DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE DONE TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. TOTALLY UNSAFE!!

HANDLES ARE BREAKING FROM THE INSIDE CAUSING AN ISSUE WHERE I CAN'T OPEN DOOR FROM INSIDE. DRIVER SIDE AND NOW ONE OF MY BACK DOORS IS DOING SAME THING! I HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS FOR THIS YEAR OF ALTIMA SEDAN

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. SHOP RUNS DIAGNOSTICS AND ALL SYSTEMS, INDEPENDENTLY ARE WORKING, HOWEVER COLLECTIVE ISSUE. I.E. MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR CODE READS AS BROKEN, BUT SENSOR IS INDEPENDENTLY FINE WHEN TESTED. MULTIPLE SYSTEMS READ OUT WITH ERROR CODES, BUT ALL ARE FINE WHEN TESTED SEPARATELY TO FURTHER ANALYZE. NO CONNECTION BETWEEN MULTIPLE CODES - RANDOM ASSORTMENT. VEHICLE FAILS EMISSIONS TEST DUE TO THESE ERRORS. SHOP NOW STATES THEY HAVE FOUND TBS ON THIS PROBLEM THROUGH NISSAN & THERE IS A PART REQUIRING A SWAP OUT. MY VEHICLE HAS EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE FOR 6+ MONTHS. HUGE TIME & FINANCIAL BURDEN TO BRING CAR IN & OUT OF SHOP. VEHICLE UNABLE TO GET RE-REGISTERED DUE TO FAULTY COMPUTER SYSTEM.

THE INSIDE DRIVER'S SIDE HANDLE HAS BROKEN. THIS HAPPENED ALL OF A SUDDEN ONE MORNING WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN PARK. IT WAS VERY COLD THE NIGHT BEFORE AND WAS BELOW FREEZING AT THE TIME OF THIS OCCURRING. IT IS LOOSE AND WILL NOT OPEN THE DOOR. IN ORDER TO EXIT THE VEHICLE, THE WINDOW MUST BE ROLLED DOWN AND THE DOOR MUST BE OPENED FROM THE OUTSIDE. THIS HAPPENS WHETHER THE CAR IS ON OR OFF.

THE FACTORY HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT IT CREATES AN ENORMOUS SAFETY HAZARD WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. USING THE HIGH BEAMS IS THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN SEE THE ROAD, BUT PRESENTS A HAZARD TO OTHER DRIVERS. NISSAN ACTS AS IF THEY DON'T KNOW THIS IS A PROBLEM, BUT IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED!

THE GEAR SHIFT IS STUCK AND WILL NOT MOVE UNLESS A PIN IS INSERTED INTO HOLE ON SIDE OF GEARSHIFT. I OWN 2 OF THESE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMAS AND THEY BOTH HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS WAY TOO MUCH OF A COINCIDENCE FOR THIS NOT TO BE A PROBLEM.

TRANSMISSION CODES CAUSES VEHICLE TO STALL. IT CAN TAKE OVER FIVE SECONDS FOR CAR TO MOVE WHEN PUSHING THE GAS PETAL ALL THE WAY DOWN. SOMETIMES I COULD BE AT A STOPLIGHT AND IT WON'T MOVE FOR FIVE SECONDS OR MORE. WHEN ENTERING THE FREEWAY, IT COULD TAKE UP TO TEN SECONDS TO MAINTAIN THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. THESE ARE THE SAME THINGS THAT HAPPENED WHEN THE FIRST TRANSMISSION WAS IN THE VEHICLE BEFORE I HAD IT REPLACED

THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START AFTER WARM UP/DRIVING FOR A WHILE AND THEN TURNED OFF. IT WILL CONTINUOUSLY RUN IF ENGINE DOES NOT GET TURNED OFF. IN ORDER TO START THE ENGINE AGAIN, IT HAS TO COOL DOWN, THEN THE CYCLE STARTS AGAIN. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN HOT. IT ALWAYS STARTS COLD OR COOLED DOWN. TOOK IT TO NISSAN DEALER FOR DIAG AND THEY SAID THAT IS WAS THE FUEL INJECTORS, SO WE REPLACED THEM ON THEIR ADVICE - BUT THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS ISSUE STARTED RECENTLY. THIS IS A WELL KEPT AND MAINTAINED 2013 ALTIMA WITH THE QR25DE 4 CYL ENGINE AND ONLY ~ 92,NNN MILES.

THE LOWER CONTROL ARM IN THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE RUSTED TOTALL OUT AND MY I AM SO LUCKY I DIDN'T DIE OR THE PEDESTRIAN !!!!! I LOST CONTROL OF MY CAR AND ALMOST HIT SOMEONE AS A RESULT! WHY IS THE WORLD WOULD THIS PART RUST OUT??? WHY IS SOMETHING NOT BEING DONE TO FIX THIS SAFETY CONCERN? BECAUSE NO ONE HAS DIED FROM IT YET? IS THAT WHAT IS NEEDED TO TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE FOR OTHER PEOPLE? THE PICTURE IS ATTACHED - SEE THE REAR WHEEL?

I BEGAN DOING RESEARCH AFTER MY VEHICLE DID THIS TO ME THE OTHER DAY TWICE. WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 40-50 MPH THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF. LIGHTS ILLUMINED ON THE DASH BOARD AND THANKFULLY I DID HAVE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES SO I WAS ABLE TO COAST ONTO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTART THE VEHICLE IN PARK HOWEVER THIS COULD BE A DANGEROUS AND DEADLY SITUATION TO EITHER ME OR INNOCENT BYSTANDERS/DRIVERS. FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN READING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN NISSANS.

MY DOOR LATCHES HAVE STOP WORKING STARTING IN JUNE WITH THE FIRST ONE NOW THERE IS THREE NONE WORKING THE CAR WAS STATIONARY EACH TIME

CAR SEAMS TO BE HESITATION MECHANIC SAID IT THE CVT TRANSMISSION

TAKATA RECALL: WHILE DRIVING ON A PAVED ROAD AT A SPEED OF ABOUT 45 MPH, THE RIGHT REAR SUBFRAME FAILED CATASTROPHICALLY DUE TO APPARENT CORROSION. THE FAILURE OCCURRED AT THE LOCATION OF THE BUSHING TO THE FRAME. THE RESULT WAS THAT THE REAR WHEEL OFFSET AND CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WAS COMPROMISED. THIS IS A HISTORIC PROBLEM WITH NISSAN AND THEY HAVE NOT ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM WITH THE NEW MODEL IN 2013. IT IS UNSAFE AND UNFAIR THAT OWNERS PAY FOR NISSAN'S REFUSAL TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM. MORE PHOTOS WILL BE AVAILABLE WHEN THE SUBFRAME IS REMOVED.

VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF WHEN DRIVING

GEAR SHIFT LOCKED IN PARK.

MY NISSAN ALTIMA 2013 2.5S HAS STARTED HAVING THIS ISSUE - OFTEN THE GEAR STICK WILL GET STUCK IN PARK MODE AND WON'T COME OUT. THIS HAPPENS ESPECIALLY WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED. SCREW DRIVER OR A SHARP ITEM NEEDS TO BE USED TO RELEASE THE SHIFT LOCK. THIS IS PAINFUL AND IT CAN OCCUR ANYTIME. I TOOK TO DEALER. DEALER SAID IT COULD COST MORE THAN 500$ TO FIX THE SHIFT LOCK. WHEN SEARCHING IN THE INTERNET, MANY NISSAN ALTIMA CARS HAVE THIS ISSUE. BELOW WEB PAGE SHOWS ALL NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/NISSAN/ALTIMA/2013/TRANSMISSION/GEAR_SHIFT_STUCK_IN_PARK.SHTML CONSIDERING THIS AS AN ISSUE FOR MANY CARS, NISSAN SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS. I HOPE FILING HERE WILL HELP ALL NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS TO GET A RELIEF ON THIS ISSUE. PLEASE HELP. THANKS

TRANSMISSION ISSUE

THE GEAR SHIFTER STUCK IN PARK THIS IS MY 2ND SHIFTER WITHIN 2 YEARS, BEEN REPLACED BEFORE NOW IT MESSING UP AGAIN. I NEED HELP WITH THIS.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND MY CAR JUST STARTED TO LOSE POWER, IN A SPEED ZONE OF 60MPH MY CAR WAS QUICKLY DROPPING SPEED/POWER. NO CHECK ENGINE LIKE CAME ON, NOR HAD ANY SIGNS OF MY CAR NEEDING SERVICE CAME UP, NOTHING. WHEN I WOULD TRY SPEEDING UP IT STARTED TO MAKE A RATTLING NOISE, STILL LESS POWER. I PULLED OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY BECAUSE THERE WERE CARS COMING VERY FAST AND ONCE I PRESSED ON MY BRAKE TO MAKE THE STOP, MY CAR STALLED. IT WOULDN'T TURN ON ANYMORE AND I HAD TO LEAVE MY CAR THERE. THIS WAS SERIOUSLY SUCH A SAFETY ISSUE, THIS HAPPENED AT NIGHT TIME WHEN I WAS TRAVELING. I'VE READ VERY SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE YEAR AND MODEL OF MY CAR ONLINE ABOUT IT BEING A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I DON'T KNOW WHY THERE ISN'T A RECALL IF IT'S SUCH A DANGEROUS ISSUE. MY CAR HAS JUST BEEN PARKED FOR 6 WEEKS BECAUSE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND IT'S DRIVING 'NORMAL', BUT I'M NOT TAKING THAT RISK AGAIN OF DRIVING IT.

MY FAMILY AND I WORE GOING ON A TRIP AFTER 2 HOURS MY NISSAN ALTIMA TURN OFF BAD AT 67K MILES NISSAN IS NOT WILLING TO HELP BECAUSE IT'S OUT OF THE WARRANTY. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS WHEN YOU ARE ON THE ROAD WITH YOUR FAMILY SO FAR FROM HOME. IT HAPPENED IN SAN ANTONIO,TX. THIS ISSUE CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS FOR THE PASSENGERS AND DRIVERS. I HAVE BEEN DOING RESEARCH AND THERE'S ALSO ALOT OF VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE FROM NISSAN OWNERS (ALTIMA'S)

THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT COME OUT OF PARK EVEN WHEN PUSHING THE BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFT - THE BUTTON TO PUSH ON THE CONSOLE WOULD NOT ENGAGE AND RELEASE IT FROM PARK EITHER - WE WERE AT A GAS STATION ON AN 1800 MILE TRIP - I FINALLY BROKE THE BUTTON ON THE CONSOLE AND STUCK MY SUNGLASSES BOW INTO THE CONSOLE BUTTON AND NOW I HAVE TO DO THAT EVERY TIME I DRIVE. IT'S REALLY MORE A MATTER OF INCONVENIENCE THAN ANYTHING BUT CONSIDERING WHAT CONSUMERS PAY FOR CARS THE EXPECTATION IS EVERYTHING SHOULD WORK AT LEAST UNTIL THE FIRST TIRE CHANGE

RECENTLY I CAUGHT A FLAT AND PULLED OVER ON THE SHOULDER ON I95 TO PUT ON MY SPEAR TIRE AFTER I WAS FINISH AND GOT BACK IN THE CAR AND WAS PROCEEDING TO PULL OFF,I COULDN'T. TURNS OUT MY SHIFTER WAS STUCK IN PARK AND WOULD NOT MOVE. BEING STRANDED ON THE SHOULDER OF I95 WITH MY FAMILY IN THE CAR UNTIL A TOW TRUCK CAME WAS A VERY FEARFUL MOMENT AND FEELING KNOWING THAT THE CARS AND TRUCK ZIPPING BYE CAN POSSIBLY HIT ME BY ACCIDENT WHILE I WAIT ON THE SHOULDER WAITING FOR A TOW TRUCK. AFTER THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER CAME TO ME AND MY FAMILY'S RESCUE AND THE HE SHOWED ME HOW TO BYPASS THE SHIFT LOCK RELEASE. AFTER EXPERIENCING SUCH A HORRIFIC ORDEAL I DECIDE TO RESEARCH THIS PROBLEM AND COME TO FIND OUT IT SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE THAT MANY (2013-15) NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFT LOCK MECHANISM THAT PREVENTS THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTER FROM COMING OUT OF PARK. THE SHIFTER REMAINS STUCK IN PARK POSITION AND WILL NOT SHIFT, NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILED FOR NISSAN NOT TO KNOW OF THE SERIOUS MATTER THAT QUALIFIES AS A LEGITIMATE RECALL. THERE IS A ELECTRIC INTERLOCK SOLENOID THAT WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED,IT UNLOCKS THE GEAR SHIFTER TO ALLOW NORMAL GEAR CHANGING OF THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THE ONLY WAY TO DISENGAGE THE SHIFTER FROM PARK, ONE WOULD HAVE TO PRY OPEN THE SHIFT LOCK RELEASE COVER WITH A SCREWDRIVER AND INSERT THE SCREWDRIVER IN THE RELEASE SLOT TO BE ABLE TO MOVE THE SHIFTER. NISSAN KNOWS VERY WELL THAT THEY SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT HASN'T DONE NOTHING. VIDEOS FOUND ONLINE SHOW DOITYOURSELFERS HOW TO HACK THIS PROBLEM WITHOUT PAYING THE NISSAN DEALERS $1,000 REPAIR COST.

WHEN PLACED IN THE PARK POSITION, THE SHIFT GEAR WILL NOT MOVE.

MY CALL STALLED WHEN I WAS STATIONARY, IN DRIVE, AT AN INTERSECTION. SINCE THEN WHENEVER I SHIFT INTO EITHER DRIVE OR REVERSE THE CAR STALLS AND SHUTS OFF. THE CHECK ENGINE, CHECK BATTERY, AND GENERAL WARNING LIGHT ALL COME ON WHEN I EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE SEEN OTHER PEOPLE ON VARIOUS ONLINE FORUMS REPORT THIS ISSUE. MY NISSAN ALTIMA 2013 HAS A LITTLE OVER 80,000 MILES ON IT. I AM THE ONLY OWNER OF THIS CAR.

RPM METER FLUCTAUATING, P0841 -FAULTY TRANSMISSION FLUID PRESSURE SENSOR. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON

THE TRANSMISSION ON MY 2013 ALTIMA FAILED AT 87,899 WHILE IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY. COST TO REPLACE $3,802.

- REPLACED 3 ALTERNATORS - LESS THAN 60K MILES - NOW THE TRANSMISSION IS FAILED AND NEEDING REPLACED - TOO MANY SIGNIFICANT QUALITY ISSUES FOR A NEW CAR

MY ALTIMA IS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE SHIFT RELEASE. I HAVE TO USE THE SHIFT LOCK RELEASE MECHANISM EVERY TIME I NEED TO MOVE THE SHIFTER FROM PARK TO DRIVE.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY, I AM UNABLE TO CHANGE THE GEAR OUT OF PARK EVEN THOUGH THE BRAKE IS PRESSED. IT TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS BEFORE I CAN SUCCESSFULLY CHANGE THE GEAR OUT OF PARK. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ALMOST A WEEK.

ACCELERATING BETWEEN 0 TO 50MPH, TRANSMISSION SHUDDER OCCURS. IT MIGHT NOT BE A PROBLEM NOW, BUT ACCORDING TO MANY MECHANICS AND DEALERS, THE TRANSMISSION COULD FAIL ANY TIME, DAYS OR YEARS. DRIVING WITH SUCH UNCERTAINTY IS VERY DANGEROUS. WHAT IF THE TRANSMISSION FAILS WHILE I AM DRIVING. THERE ARE MANY OF THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL.

YESTERDAY WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD, MY RIGHT SIDE BACK VIEW MIRROR BLEW UP WITH A HUGE BANG. AND THE WHOLE THING WAS IN MILLION PIECES FLY AWAY. ON THE PLASTIC IT HAS BLACK MARKS INSIDE, LOOKS LIKE IT BURNED INSIDE AND THEN IT BLASTED

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 67 MPH MY ENTIRE CAR SWERVED TO THE LEFT SIDE. I FELT LIKE MY STEERING WHEEL WAS LOOSE AND THE WHEEL ALIGNMENT WAS SUDDENLY OFF. I DID HAVE TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED FROM WORK. THE FINAL DIAGNOSIS IS MY LEFT REAR CONTROL ARM SPLIT IN HALF AND MY RIGHT REAR CONTROL ARM IS CRACKED IN THE SAME SPOT. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE AS IT COULD OF CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT IF THERE WAS A CAR TO THE LEFT OF MINE DURING THIS INCIDENCE. NISSAN REPORTS $1192.05 TO REPLACE BOTH REAR CONTROL ARMS. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF ATTEMPTING TO GET REIMBURSEMENT FROM NISSAN BECAUSE THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THEY STOCK THE PARTS FOR THE REPAIR BECAUSE THEY HAVE HAD A A FEW OF THEM LATELY. MY CASE # WITH NISSAN IS 33841223

IN 2015 THE A/C COMPRESSOR WHEN OUT AND WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, THEN 21/2 YEARS LATER THE COMPRESSOR WENT OUT AGAIN AND NISSAN REFUSED TO REPAIR. TWO COMPRESSORS IN 5 YEARS AND THEY DIDN'T THINK THIS WAS A ISSUE. I END UP PAYING 1200 DOLLARS TO REPLACE AFTER 2/12 YEARS.

THE BATTERY SEEMS TO DRAIN QUICKLY FOR NO REASON EVEN I HAD A NEW BATTERY INSTALLED.I HAD TO JUMP START MY CAR VERY OFTEN.THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS.I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR 6 YEARS NOW.

BOTH MY DRIVER INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE AND PASSENGER INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE WITHIN WEEKS OF EACH OTHER FAIL TO OPEN DOORS. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE ALTIMA AND DUE TO A CHEAP PLASTIC PART THAT BREAKS WHICH HOLDS STEEL WIRE TO ENGAGE HANDLE MECHANISM. THIS IS A DANGER AND CAN CAUSE LIFE THREATENING PROBLEMS BECAUSE THE ONLY WAY TO GET OUT IS TO CRAWL TO BACK DOORS OR USE POWER WINDOWS TO LOWER WINDOWS AND REACH ARM OUTSIDE WINDOW AND OPEN VIA ECTERIOR HANDLE. IF THERE WAS A FIRE OR CRASH OR END UP IN WATER THERE WOULD BE LITTLE CHANCE TO EXCAPE IF POWER WENT OUT OF INJURY. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL, I WAS QUOTED $185 DOLLARS PER DOOR HANDLE FOR A THE FAULT OF NISSAN QUALITY PARTS.

AROUND 7 MONTHS AGO MY CAR WAS JERKING AND STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF A HIGHWAY, IT WAS TOW TO THE DEALER AND THEY JUST "RESET THE CAR". TODAY HAPPENED AGAIN, THE CAR START BUT STOPS WHEN CHANGING THE GEAR TO DRIVE OR REVERSE MODE SAME SITUATION AS THE LAST TIME.

MY CAR HAS 53,000 MILES ON IT AND BEING A SINGLE MOM OF 3 I CAN'T AFFORD TO PUT NEW TRANSMISSION IN IT. I STILL HAVE PAYMENTS ON THE CAR. DOES THIS CAR HAVE A CVT WARRANTY?

CONSISTENT WITH NHTSA ITEM #10119276, THE MAGNET CLUTCH TO THE AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR DOES NOT ENGAGE CAUSING THE AIR CONDITIONER TO BLOW HOT AIR. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, THIS COULD POTENTIALLY OVEREXPOSE TTHE OPERATOR TO DANGEROUS LEVELS OF HEAT WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE OPERATOR'S ABILITY TO SAFELY CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND THEREFORE LEAD TO CRASHES AS WELL AS INJURY TO THE OPERATOR SUCH AS HEAT EXHAUSTION OR HEAT STROKE. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING, THE RISK OF THE OPERATOR'S OVEREXPOSURE TO THE HEAT CAN BE REDUCED BY ROLLING DOWN THE WINDOWS. HOWEVER DURING RAINFALL, AT SLOW SPEEDS OR WHILE AT A STANDSTILL, THAT OPTION IS NOT AVAILABLE. AS AN EXAMPLE, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, I REACHED A SECTION THAT WAS SHUT DOWN. THE TRAFFIC WAS BACKED UP AND I WAS TRAPPED ON THE INTERSTATE FORCING ME TO OPERATE MY VEHICLE AT A STANDSTILL FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. WHEN MY OVEREXPOSURE TO THE HEAT CAUSED ME TO BECOME FAINT AND DISORIENTED, I ABANDONED MY VEHICLE ON THE INTERSTATE AND MADE MY WAY TO THE SHOULDER OF THE INTERSTATE. A DOCTOR CAUGHTUP IN THE TRAFFIC BACKUP SAW ME AND WHILE ATTENDING ME STATED THAT I WAS SUFFERING FROM HEAT EXHAUSTION. OTHER MOTORISTS ASSISTED HIM AND WERE ABLE TO FIND SOMEONE WITH A COOLER OF ICE AND SO THE DOCTOR WAS ABLE TO TREAT ME BY ICING ME DOWN. THE DOCTOR TOLD ME THAT I WAS ON THE VERGE OF HEAT STROKE WHICH WAS AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. THIS INCIDENCE MADE ME REALIZE THAT A DEFECTIVE AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT SIMPLY UNCOMFORTABLE AND AN INCONVENIENCE BUT BECAUSE UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS IT CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT THE OPERATOR'S ABILITY TO SAFELY CONTROL THE VEHICLE, IT CAN LEAD TO UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. I NOW BELIEVE THAT ANY PROBLEM THAT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO ADVERSELY AFFECT THE OPERATOR'S ABILITY TO SAFELY CONTROL THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A SAFETY ISSUE.

THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR AFTER IT IS PARKED OR WHEN YOU TRY TO PUT IN REVERSE. THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD GET STUCK. THIS WOULD HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK.

THIS IS IN REGARDS TO THE CVT TRANSMISSION. IN FEBRUARY 2018, WHILE MY CAR WAS IN IDLE MODE, MY CAR SHUDDERED AND STALLED. WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK, SHUT THE CAR OFF, AND RESTARTED IT, THE CAR TURNED BACK ON. HOWEVER, WHEN I SHIFTED BACK IN "DRIVE" THE CAR WOULD SHUDDER AND STALL. AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS, THE CAR FINALLY WORKED. LATER THAT DAY, WHILE AT A STOP SIGN THE CAR SHUDDERED AND STALLED. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC. NOTHING SHOWED UP. MY LOCAL MECHANICS REPLACED A SENSOR BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE PROBLEM. FAST FORWARD TO AUGUST 2018. MY CAR WHILE DRIVING SLOW BEGAN TO SHUDDER AND THEN STALL OUT. I BROUGHT IT TO NISSAN. THIS TIME THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST SAID I NEED A VALVE BODY REPLACEMENT. THAT COSTED ME $1100. 2 WEEKS LATER. I WAS DRIVING AND WHEN I STARTED TO SLOW DOWN MY CAR SHUDDERED THEN STALLED. I RESTARTED IT FORTUNATELY AND BROUGHT IT BACK TO NISSAN. THEY DID ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC. THIS TIME THEY SAID THE CVT TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE DONE MUCH RESEARCH ON THIS. MANY PEOPLE HAD THIS PROBLEM. MY CAR IS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH 65K MILES ON IT. THERE IS NO REASON WHY THIS SHOULD BE HAPPENING. NISSAN KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM, YET THEY DO NOTHING ABOUT IT.

3 DOOR LATCHES BROKE ON MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA, WITHIN 3 WEEKS OF EACH OTHER. I TOOK MY CAR TO NISSAN FOR REPAIRS THINKING IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY OR RECALL AS SO MANY OTHER OWNERS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS A DEFECTIVE PLASTIC PART IN THE LATCH THAT BREAKS ON THAT MODEL VEHICLE; THIS PARTICULAR DEALERSHIP HAD FIXED 30 OR SO WITHIN THE PAST YEAR. IT COST ME ABOUT $500 TO HAVE IT FIXED. I HAD BEEN ROLLING THE DRIVER-SIDE WINDOW DOWN TO GET OUT BUT HAD TO HAVE THE BACK DOORS REPAIRED BECAUSE I HAVE SMALL CHILDREN AND IF THERE HAD BEEN AN ACCIDENT THE CHILDREN WOULD BE TRAPPED IN THE BACKSEAT. I CALLED CUSTOMER CARE TO COMPLAIN. THEY CONSIDERED MY CASE FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND CAME BACK WITH A DETERMINATION THAT THEY COULD NOT COVER IT BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. EVEN THE NISSAN DEALER INDICATED THAT SINCE SO MANY OF THESE VEHICLES HAD THE SAME PROBLEM A RECALL SHOULD BE GIVEN. I AM DISAPPOINTED AT THE LACK OF ACTION PROVIDED BY NISSAN! GOD-FORBID IF SOMEONE GETS HURT BECAUSE THEY CAN'T GET OUT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT! I HAVE ATTACHED 9 PAGES OF COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER 2013 ALTIMA OWNERS WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. NISSAN SHOULD IMMEDIATELY ISSUE A RECALL AND REIMBURSE THOSE THAT HAVE ALREADY HAD THE PROBLEM FIXED.

AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR BLOWS HOT AIR. MACHANIC STATED THAT THE A.C COMPRESSOR HAS INTERNAL MECHANICAL FAILURE CAUSING HIGH SUCTION SIDE PRESSURE. ALSO, IT IS UNDER 100,000 MILES AND SHOULDN'T BE HAVING THIS PROBLEM.

I HAVE HAD THREE DOORS THAT ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND IT SEEMS IT CAN BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE IF INVOLVED IN CRASH BECAUSE DOORS WILL NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE. IT APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURING ISSUE DUE TO NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE SURROUNDING EXACT SAME ISSUE PLEASE HELP WHAT FOOD IS IT TO GET IT FIX ONLY TO HAVE IT HAPPENE AGAIN BECAUSE OF PARTS USED BY MANUFACTURERS.

TAKATA RECALL AFTER RETURNING FROM A ROAD TRIP I NOTICED MY CAR SHAKING AND WHEN CHANGING GEARS THE CAR PAUSES BEFORE ACCELERATING. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT IT ONLY COVERS THE ENGINE. WAS TOLD THAT NISSAN RECENTLY EXTENDED THEIR WARRANTY TO 100K MILES WHERE THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO FIX THE REPAIRS AND GIVE ME A RENTAL WHILE IT'S IN THE SHOP. NISSAN IS NOT GOING TO FIX THE REPAIRS BUT THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL.

THE CAR SHIFT LOCK BUTTON LOCKS THE CAR IN GEAR, THE CAR IS UNABLE TO BE SHIFTED FROM A PARK POSITION TO DRIVE, REVERSE OR ANY OTHER GEAR WHILE IN PARK OR ANY OTHER GEAR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND FRIGHTFUL IF YOU HAVE AN EMERGENCY AND THE CAR CANNOT BE PUT INTO GEAR! I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY BECAUSE WHEN I WAS PARALLEL PARKING ON A STREET PASSING CARS HAD TO WAIT AND CAME DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO HITTING MY CAR.

INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE(S) BREAK BECAUSE ONLY PLASTIC IS USED TO SECURE A METAL BALL ATTACHED TO THE CABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR. AT AROUND 40 TO 60,000 MILES THE INTERIOR HANDLE BREAKS, ALMOST CONSISTENTLY BASED ON ONLINE RESEARCH. THIS KNOWN PROBLEM SHOULD BE REPAIRED BY MAKING THE AREA WHERE THE CABLE ATTACHES MORE STURDY, OR USE A MORE STURDY MATERIAL SUCH AS METAL. IF THIS HANDLE WERE TO BREAK WHILE TRYING TO EXIT THE VEHICLE DUE TO AN EMERGENCY, THE RESULTS COULD BE CATASTROPHIC.

DRIVERS SIDE DOOR HANDLE. SOMETHING INSIDE BROKE AND THE HANDLE SWINGS FREELY. IT WILL NOT OPEN THE DOOR. WE HAVE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING ONLINE AND APPARENTLY THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR NISSAN ALTIMA 2013-2015. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ABOUT THIS ISSUE. WE ARRIVED HOME AND I TRIED TO GET OUT OF THE CAR SOMETHING INSIDE THE DOOR SNAPPED, AND I'M NO LONGER ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM INSIDE THE CAR. IF THE CAR WERE TO CATCH ON FIRE AND THE ELECTRIC WINDOW DOES'T OPEN I WOULD BE TRAPPED.

CAN'T SHIFT OUT OF PARK WITHOUT USING SHIFT LOCK OVERRIDE

WHILE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP AT AT RED LIGHT, OVERDRIVE TURNED OFF BY ITSELF.

THE GEAR SHIFTER STICKS IN PARK SOMETIMES IT DOESNT COME OUT OF GEAR NOW FOR A 2013 WITH 43.000 MILES WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN

WHILE PARKED (OR ANYTIME THE GEAR SHIFT IS IN THE "P" POSITION; THE GEAR SHIFT WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF "PARK". THE DEALER MADE THE SUGGESTION TO INSTALL A NEW BRAKE SWITCH. I PURCHASED THE NEW BRAKE SHIFT AND THE DEALER INSTALLED IT, HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. FOR SAFETY REASONS, I WOULD LIKE THIS TO BE DONE AS A RECALL BY NISSAN MOTORS AND THERE HAVE BEEN A LARGE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS BY OWNERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK I STOPPED AT AT RED LIGHT MY CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE AND CUT OFF, IT DID THAT A FEW TIMES BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF. SHOP COULDN'T DETECT ANYTHING IT DID THE SAME THING AGAIN 3 DAYS LATER SHOP FOUND NOTHING AGAIN.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 70 MPH THE CLOSED SUNROOF EXPLODED. THANKFULLY THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS AROUND AND THE VISOR WAS CLOSED SO I WAS UNINJURED BY THE SHATTERED GLASS. IT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT.

1. BREAK SWITCH NEEDED REPLACING AND NOW THE ISSUE IS HAPPENING AGAIN AS FAR OCCASIONALLY LOSES POWER CAUSING SOME POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUES IN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. 2. BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES DO NOT OPEN DOOR WHICH IS A MAJOR ISSUE AS THE ONLY WAY TO OPEN DOORS IS TO ROLL WINDOW DOWN. IN AN EMERGENCY THIS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS THREAT TO SAFETY IF WINDOWS CAN NOT BE ROLLED DOWN.

THE GEAR SHIFTER WILL NOT MOVE OUT OF PARK INTO ANY OTHER GEARS.

TAKATA RECALL I RECENTLY WENT TO TRY AND GET AN OIL CHANGE AT MY REGULAR PLACE THAT I USUALLY GO TO RECEIVE ONE AND THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO OPEN MY HOOD BECAUSE SOMEHOW THE LATCH ON THE INSIDE OF THE CAR WOULD NOT WORK WHEN YOU PULL IT SO THAT CAUSED MY HOOD TO BE JAMMED AND I WAS UNABLE TO OPEN IT.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN AN OPEN HIGHWAY, THE SUNROOF GLASS EXPLODED AND FELL INTO THE CAR. AT THE SAME TIME (RELATED SOMEHOW?) THE BACK WINDSHIELD SHATTERED, BUT REMAINED INTACT (AT LEAST FOR A WHILE, IT LATER COMPLETELY COLLAPSED). I HAD NOT DRIVEN UNDER ANY OVERPASSES AND THERE WERE NO VEHICLES CLOSE ENOUGH TO HAVE THROWN A ROCK.

INSIDE DOOR HANDLE IS MADE OF PLASTIC. THIS CHEAP PLASTIC HOOK'S ON THE END OF THE CABLE THAT CAUSES THE DOOR LATCH TO OPEN THE DOOR. WHEN THIS HOOK BRAKES THE ENTIRE DOOR HANDLE ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED. THIS MUST BE AN ENGINEERED TO FAIL HANDLE THAT IS MADE TO BREAK QUIT EASILY. IF YOU LOOK ON EBAY, HUNDREDS HAVE BEEN SOLD. I CAN IMAGINE HOW MUCH EXTRA REVENUE AND HOW OFTEN DEALERS GET TO REPLACE THIS SIMPLE PIECE OF HARDWARE. THE PROBLEM IS EASILY SOLVED BY MAKING THE HOOK OUT OF METAL.

I WAS IN MY CAR LEAVING A RESTAURANT IN HOLLAND STOPPED, GOT OUT IMMEDIATELY, AND THE TIRE WAS IN HUGE SHREDDED PIECES. IT COULD NOT BE DRIVEN AND I HAD TO CALL A WRECKER TO HAVE IT HAULED TO A TIRE SHOP FOR $99 AND BUY A NEW TIRE. I BOUGHT THIS 2013 NISSAN USED FROM AN AUTHORIZED NISSAN DEALER AND THEY REFUSED TO MAKE ANY REIMBURSEMENT. THESE WERE THE TIRES THEY HAD ON IT. I WAS MOVING WHEN THIS HAPPENED--IN A PARKING LOT AND TURNING

"TAKATA RECALL" WASHED MY CAR ON THURSDAY EVENING PARKED IT IN GARAGE FOR THE NIGHT. THE NEXT MORNING I WAS ABLE TO PULL IT OUT OF GARAGE AND BACK IN HOURS LATER. ROUGHLY 6 HRS LATER WENT TO START IT AND NOTHING!!! WHEN I HOLD BRAKE DOWN AND PUSH BUTTON IT WILL TURN OVER BUT WONT SPARK. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING ONLINE AND SEEMS I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS HAS AFFECTED.

INSIDE DOOR HANDLES MY DRIVER SIDE DOORS, BOTH FRONT AND BACK, HAD THE HANDLE INSIDE BROKEN. I CAN NO LONGER OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME THE DOOR WAS ATTEMPTING TO BE OPENED. THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT BROKE AS I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, THE AUTOMATIC LOCKS UNLOCKED, AND WHEN I USED THE HANDLE, IT BROKE AND WILL NOT OPEN. THE DRIVER SIDE REAR BROKE AS THE CAR WAS IN PARK FOR AT LEAST 1 MINUTE AND THE DOOR WAS ATTEMPTING TO BE OPENED.

SHIFT LOCK IS NOT WORKING.

WE HAVE A CUSTOMER WHO IS LEASING THIS VEHICLE FROM US. THERE WAS A HOOD LATCH RECALL THAT WAS PERFORMED IN MAY 2017. THE HOOD LATCH STILL WILL NOT OPEN. THE CUSTOMER CANNOT DRIVE IT. I WENT TO ORR NISSAN IN HOT SPRINGS, AR AND THEY SAID THIS RECALL IS NOT WARRANTIED. WE HAVE TRIED TO DIAGNOSE OPENING THE HOOD LATCH, BUT ARE HAVING NO SUCH LUCK TO ASSIST THIS CUSTOMER. THE CUSTOMER DOES NOT WANT TO SPEND ANY ADDITIONAL MONEY AT THIS POINT. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP TO HONOR AND WARRANTY THIS RECALL THAT WAS ALREADY PERFORMED?

THE GEAR SHIFTER IS STUCK IN PARK. IN STARTING UP THE CAR AND TRYING TO MOVE THE GEAR SHIFTER OUT OF PARK, IT WOULD NOT MOVE OUT OF PARK.

CHANGING GEAR SHIFTER IS GETTING LOCK AFTER PUTTING THE GEAR IN PARK. IT STARTED WITH EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE GETTING STUCK. NOW IT NEVER CHANGES WITHOUT HAVING TO STICK A SCREWDRIVER TO RELEASE THE LOCK.

DASHBOARD IS GETTING EXCESSIVELY STICKY.

CHANGING GEAR IS GETTING LOCK AFTER PUTTING THE GEAR IN PARK, HAVING TROUBLE CHANGING IT TO DRIVE.

GEAR SHIFT KEEP GETTING STUCK WHEN YOU PUT IN PARK WHEN TRYING TO PUT IN REVEARSE OR DRIVE IT WON'T MOVE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME JUST SOME TIMES.

I PURCHASED MY 2013 NISSAN APPROXIMATELY FOUR MONTHS AGO AS A REPLACEMENT CAR FOR THE NISSAN ALTIMA THAT WAS TOTALLED IN A CAR ACCIDENT. LIVING IN EXTREMELY HOT WEATHER (IN THE 100S), IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THE AIR CONDITIONING (AC) WORKS AND WORKS WELL. I OFTEN TRAVEL WITH MY 85 YEAR OLD MOTHER AND TO HAVE THE AC BLOW HOT AIR WHILE STUCK IN TRAFFIC FOR ALMOST TWO HOURS WAS SOMETHING BOTH UNACCEPTABLE AND EMBARRASSING. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT FROM CARMAX IN PLEASANTON, CA. IT BLOWS HOT AIR ALMOST CONSISTENTLY WHILE DRIVING, REGARDLESS OF SPEED. WHILE RESEARCHING, I FOUND THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND I AM ALSO HEARING THAT, DEPENDING ON THEIR MOOD, NISSAN WILL COVER THE EXUBERANT $1500 TO REPLACE THE COMPRESSOR...NOT MANY HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND PER THE SALESPERSON AT CARMAX, HE RECOMMENDED THAT THE AC NEEDED TO BE RECHARGED. THEY DID SO, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. I AM SURPRISED WITH THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS THAT HEY HAVE NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, AS IT IS JUST AS BAD AS LEAVING A CHILD IN A CAR FOR HOURS! WE WERE STUCK IN TRAFFIC FOR ALMOST TWO HOURS AND WERE DRENCHED WITH SWEAT ONCE WE FINALLY ARRIVED HOME. HAD SHE PASSED OUT DUE TO HEAT EXHAUSTION, I'M NOT SURE WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE BECAUSE WE WERE AT A STAND-STILL AT ONE POINT. IT WAS A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. I WOULD LIKE FOR NISSAN TO FIX THIS PROBLEM WITH MY CAR AT NO COST TO ME AS THIS IS CLEARLY A RECALL!

WHILE STATIONARY, THE CAR WILL NOT SHIFT INTO PARK. THE SHIFTER GETS STUCK AND WILL NOT BUDGE.

THE CVT TRANSMISSION ON MY 2013 ALTIMA WENT OUT. I PURCHASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW AND COMPLETED REQUIRED MAINTENANCE. THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AFTER LESS THAN 4 YEARS AND AT 70K MILES. IT SEEMS THAT THOUSANDS OF CONSUMERS HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. THE CAR WILL SHUTTER, JERK, AND SHUT OFF WHEN YOU ARE STOPPED/IDLE. THE CAR ALSO SHUTTERS WHEN ACCELERATING AND DOES NOT HAVE MUCH POWER. THIS WAS AN EXTREME SAFE HAZARD WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR IS NOT SHIFTING GEARS PROPERLY/TRANSMISSION BROKE. NISSAN HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSION FOR MODEL YEARS 2006-2010 AND OFFERED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THOSE YEARS. NISSAN SHOULD REIMBURSE AND/OR OFFER WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR 2011+ MODELS AS WELL.

THE OVERHEAD CONSOLE JUST FELL WHILE MY CAR WAS PARKED. IT APPEARS THE HINGE JUST BROKE OR MELTED POSSIBLY DUE TO HEAT. SEEMS POORLY CONSTRUCTED.

DRIVER SIDE DOOR QUIT WORKING, NOTICED WHEN I SHUT THE CAR OFF READY TO GET OUT AND NOT ABLE TO... NOT A HAPPY PERSON ! CONSIDERING I AM STILL PAYING ON IT

TAKATA RECALL - THE HOOD FLEW UP WHILE BEING DRIVEN

MY VEHICLE HAS A KNOWN RECALL. I REPORTED IT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP ON RITCHIE HWY IN GLEN BURNIE MARYLAND IN JUNE OF 2016. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD GET BACK TO ME. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AND PAYING FOR A SAFETY HAZARD FOR ALMOST 1 YEAR. PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE.

I CLOSE MY TRUCK OF MY CAR AND THE WINDOW JUST SHATTERED. I WENT INTO THE HOME WHERE I WAS. WE CALLED A NEIGHBOR A MAN TO COME. HE SAID IT WOULD BE FINE TO DRIVE HOME. IT WOULD NOT FALL IN HE SAID. WE COULD CONTINUE TO HEAR IT CRACKING. IT WAS 74 DEGREES OUTSIDE. ANOTHER PERSON SAID THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN A BACK WINDOW SHATTER BEFORE. SINCE IT WAS DARK WE COULD NOT KNOW IF SOMETHING FELL ONTO IT. NOTHING BUT DARK SKIES AND STARS ABOVE. SOMEONE TOUCH IT AND IT FELL IN. SO I PUT A SUN VISOR IN THE BACK TO CATCH THE FALLING GLASS. WE ALL WAS SHOCK. THEY ALL THOUGHT WITH THE HEATER COILS IT WOULD NOT FALL IN OR WITH THE PROTECTIVE COATING LIKE TINT WOULD HOLD IT. STRANGE I DROVE HOME 20 MPH. COVERED AND NOW I HAVE TO WAIT BECAUSE IT NEEDS TO BE ORDERED AND I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. PLEASE HELP. I WAS IN N.C, 27870 ON 514 DAVIE ST. ABOUT 9:30 PM. ON 04-29-17

TRANSMISSION STARTED SHUDDERING, MAKING LOUD NOISES, AND THEN VEHICLE WOULD STALL AND DIE IN TRAFFIC, VERY DANGEROUS. THE TRANSMISSION EVENTUALLY FAILED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED, TWICE. THE NEW REPLACEMENT FAILED.

GEAR SHIFT WHEN IN PARK WON'T GO INTO GEAR

I WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH SHUDDERING AND VIBRATION THE CAR HAD A RECALL WITH CVT TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE AFTER I GOT THE CAR BACK THE VIBRATION MADE IT WORSE AND BLUETTOTH BARELY WORKS

FAULTY TRANSMISSION CVT

DRIVER'S INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE BROKE WHEN IN NORMAL USE. UNABLE TO OPEN DOOR FROM INSIDE THE CAR. THIS COULD BE A SERIOUS OR FATAL SAFETY ISSUE IF THERE WAS A NEED TO EXIT THE VEHICLE IN AN EMERGENCY. AN ONLINE REVIEW SHOWS BROKEN INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE IS NOT AN UNCOMMON COMPLAINT IN THIS MODEL YEAR CAR. THIS CAR WAS PARKED AND STATIONARY WHEN THE HANDLE BROKE. THE ENGINE WAS OFF. THIS CAR ONLY HAS ABOUT 40K MILES ON IT. THE HANDLE APPARENTLY HAS INFERIOR PLASTIC PARTS IN IT AND SINCE IT CAN BREAK DURING NORMAL USE, IT IS EVEN MORE LIKELY TO BREAK IF SOMEONE WERE PANICKED IN AN EMERGENCY.

THE SHIFT LOCK WILL NOT RELEASE. APPARENTLY THE SOLENOID THAT RELEASES THE LOCK HAS CEASED FUNCTIONING. THE SAME COMPLAINTS ARE FOUND ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND NISSAN WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE IT. THEY ALSO WANT AT LEAST $750.00 TO REPLACE WHAT IS AT BEST A $20 PART. THAT'S BECAUSE IT IS PART OF THE SHIFT MECHANISM AND THEY WANT TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE UNIT. THAT LEAVES ONLY TWO CHOICES FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T AFFORD A REPAIR OF THAT PRICE. ONE IS TO DISABLE THE LOCK MECHANISM OR THE SECOND IS NOT SHIFT INTO PARK AT ALL AND USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. NEITHER ARE SENSIBLE ALTERNATIVES BUT WITH NO HELP FROM NISSAN THEY ARE THE ONLY TWO AVAILABLE.

I HAVE 31,00 MILES ON MY 2013 ALTIMA WHICH I PURCHASED ABOUT THREE-AND-A-HALF YEARS AGO. I WAS IN MY CAR, AND I TRIED TO GET OUT. I PULLED ON THE DOOR HANDLE AND THE DOOR WOULDN'T HAPPEN. I HAD TO LEAVE MY CAR RUNNING IN MY GARAGE AND OPEN THE WINDOW TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. THIS WOULD BE DANGEROUS IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. THIS PROBLEM CAN RESULT IN DEATH. IF SOMEONE IS IN AN ACCIDENT AND THEIR WINDOW WON'T ROLL DOWN, THEY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR, AND COULD GET SEVERELY INJURED OR KILLED BY BEING TRAPPED IN THE CAR.

I WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 60MPH ON RT 95 IN MARYLAND AND MY SUNROOF EXPLODED AND GLASS FELL ALL AROUND ME. THE GLASS THAT WAS LEFT WAS RAISED UP, SUGGESTING THAT THE CAUSE OF THE SHATTER WAS FROM SOMETHING OTHER THAN AN ITEM FALLING ONTO THE SUNROOF FROM THE OUTSIDE.

THE CAR GETS STUCK IN PARK AND WILL NOT SHIFT, ALWAYS WHEN PUT IN PARK WILL NOT SHIFT AND I NOTICED IT HAPPENS WITH TOO MANY ALTIMA....SHOULD BE A RECALL

THE BACK-UP CAMERA DOES NOT ALWAYS OPERATE CORRECTLY. AT TIMES, THE CAMERA PICTURE IS TOO DARK TO VIEW AND OTHER TIMES THE PICTURE IS MOSTLY ORANGE. THIS TAKES AWAY FROM THE RELIABILITY OF THIS SAFETY DEVICE. I HAD THIS LOOKED AT THREE TIMES. SINCE IT DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, THE MALFUNCTION WAS NOT REPEATED DURING THE SERVICE VISITS.

DIDN'T DEPLOY I HIT THE 2013 DANRANGO TRUCK FROM BEHIND ON MY PASSENGER FRONT KNOCKING THE TIRE COMPLETELY OFF THE TRUCK ON THE DRIVER RAR WHEEL.

WHILE ENTERING ONTO INTERSTATE 64 IN HAMPTON, VIRGINIA I NOTICED FIRE COMING UP FROM THE CONSOLE BETWEEN THE GEAR SHIFT AND THE ARM REST. THERE WERE NO WARNINGS. THE VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED. FIRE INVESTIGATION REPORT STATES THAT IS WAS A MECHANICAL FAILURE. NISSAN COMPANY HAS BEEN NOTIFIED AND A CASE NUMBER PROVIDED. THEY HAVE STATED THEY WILL INVESTIGATE.

SHIFT GEAR LOCKS UP IN PARK AND WILL NOT MOVE UNLESS YOU PRESS THE SHIFT OVER RIDE. ONLY 39000 MILES ON THE CAR. VEHICLE IS STATIONARY WHEN THIS HAPPENS.0

I CURRENTLY HAVE A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA AND HAVE JUST FOUND OUT THAT MY CAR NEEDS A NEW HEAD GASKET!! THE CAR ALWAYS GOT ITS SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE WITH OIL, GAS, AND FLUID LEVELS ALWAYS AT THE PROPER LEVEL. I WENT IN FOR A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND A NOISE COMING FROM MY CAR, ALSO MY AIR CONDITIONING HAD SUDDENLY WENT OUT. I FOUND OUT I NEEDED A NEW RADIATOR. I DID NOT DRIVE THE CAR AFTER THIS, I ORDERED MY PARTS AND HAD THE RADIATOR INSTALLED A WEEK LATER. THE CAR WAS DRIVING GREAT. THEN I PARKED IT SHUT IT OFF AND COULD NOT GET IT TO START AGAIN. SO THE MECHANIC RAN DIAGNOSTIC ON IT AND HAD A NEW CODE OF CYLINDER MISFIRE. SO I CHANGED OUT MY SPARK PLUGS, BUT SAME THING HAPPENED. THE CAR WOULD START BUT ONCE SHUT OFF IT COULD NOT START AGAIN. THEN THE MECHANIC NOTICED THE PLUGS WERE WET AND SAID THAT IT WAS ANTI-FREEZE DRIPPING IN, THUS HIS DIAGNOSIS A NEW HEAD GASKET IS NEEDED.

PASSENGER DOOR HANDLE DOES NOT OPEN DOOR EVEN WHEN MANUEL LOCK IS IN OPEN POSITION . CAN NOT EXIT CAR UNLESS YOU ROLL DOWN WINDOW AND OPEN FROM OUTSIDE HANDLE. ONCE DOOR IS OPEN YOU HAVE TO LEAVE CAR RUNNING DOOR OPEN TO ROLL UP WINDOW BEFORE SHUTTING OFF CAR. ONLY INSIDE DOOR HANDLE WON'T OPEN CAR. OUTSIDE GETTING INTO CAR IS NO PROBLEM. CAR WAS STATIONARY ON CITY STREET.

A/C FAILURE AND DOESN'T BLOW COLD. COMPRESSOR NEED REPLACEMENT. IN THE BEGINNING THE CAR WILL STAY COOL ON THE FREEWAY AND SOMETIME WILL BLOW COLD WHEN AT A STAND STILL. NOW WILL BLOW HOT AIR BECAUSE OF COMPRESSOR FAILURE. I HAVE SEEN THIS HAPPEN TO 4 CARS ALREADY IN THE PAST 4 MOTNHS.

MY AUTO DO NOT EVEN HAVE 70,000 MILES AND NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION. $ 4,000 ??? REALLY???

THE WINDOWS ON THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. IN ORDER TO OPEN THE DOOR YOU HAVE TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS TO OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE.

I PURCHASED THIS CAR 1 YEAR AGO, AND IN THE PAST 2 DAYS (AT 86K MILES), IT HAS DIED AT A STOP A TOTAL OF 4 TIMES WHILE ON THE ROAD WHEN I CAME TO A STOP (3 TIMES IN 1/4 MILE, UPHILL - COULD NOT GET IT BACK INTO DRIVE, HAD 6 PEOPLE PUSH IT TO THE SIDE PARKING LOT). I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET IT STARTED TILL THE 6TH TRY IN THE PARKING LOT (HAD TO SWITCH TO NEUTRAL AND THEN TO DRIVE IN ORDER FOR IT TO NOT SHUT OFF). THIS IS ABSOLUTELY THE MOST TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER HAD DRIVING. I GOT THIS CAR BECAUSE IT HAD HIGH SAFETY RATINGS, WHAT A JOKE - WORST INVESTMENT OF MY LIFE!! I AM NOW $12K IN DEBT WITH A CAR THAT CAN'T EVEN GET ME FROM POINT A TO POINT B WITHOUT BREAKING DOWN.

A/C DOES NOT COOLING, JUST HOT AIR.

I HAD MY 3 PENDING RECALLS REPAIRED THIS WEEK AT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, YET ONE IS STILL LEFT ON THE SAFERCAR.GOV WEBSITE (EVEN THOUGH IT SHOWS NO RECALLS ON THE NISSAN WEBSITE) I CANNOT EXPORT MY CAR OVERSEAS UNTIL THE SITE HAS BEEN UPDATED. PLEASE ASSIST, THANK YOU. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON ROUTE 128 NORTH THE ENGINE HOOD FLEW OPEN AND SMASHED WINSHEILD, TOP ROOF , BENT BOTH FENDERS, AND ENGINE HOOD. CAR WENT TO AUTO SHOP FOR REPAIRS. THIS WAS DUE TO SECONDARY HOOD LATCH FAILURE.

WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY VEHICLE TURNED OFF. TURNED THE CAR BACK ON JUST FINE. WHEN I PUT IT BACK INTO DRIVE IT TURNED OFF AGAIN. CALLED 911 WHO TRANSFERRED ME TO DPS WHICH HAD TO SHUT ALL 5 LANES OF TRAFFIC TO PUSH ME OFF TO THE SIDE. TOWED CAR TO DEALERSHIP WHICH WRONGFULLY DIAGNOSED WITH A LOW BATTERY KEY FOB. SAME NIGHT AFTER PICKING UP MY CAR IT TURNED OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AT NIGHT. LUCKILY THIS TIME IT STAYED ON AFTER PUTTING IT IN DRIVE. MY CAR IS STILL UNDIAGNOSED AT THE DEALERSHIP ALMOST A FULL WEEK LATER.

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE SEPTEMBER 2015. I HAVE VISITED THE DEALER THREE TIMES (UNTIL END-JAN 2015) AND THERE IS NO RESOLUTION. I HAVE A METRO MILE TAG THAT TRANSMITS ME ERROR CODES AND AS PER THAT THE PROBLEM IS P0037 - HO2S HEATER CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW BANK 1 SENSOR 2 THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE IT AND IT IS A ABSOLUTE WASTE OF TIME GETTING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER SO MANY TIMES.

60,064 MILES MY TRANSMISSION WENT. THE CAR IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS. I HAVE LOOKED UP REVIEWS ON THIS CAR AND SEEN THIS IS A COMMEN PROBLEM FOR THIS CAR. SO WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL ON IT? MY CAR DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF A HIGHWAY AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED! I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED FROM THE SCENE.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON 12/17/15 ON AN ON RAMP TO A HIGHWAY, THE SECONDARY LATCH (RECALL PREVIOUSLY AT DEALERSHIP TO BE REPAIRED 7/2015) FAILED CAUSING THE HOOD TO FLY UP. FILED COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN WHO TOLD US TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP. WE TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP IN WHICH THEY VERIFIED THE SECONDARY LATCH WAS NOT WORKING AND GAVE US AN ESTIMATE OF $3,200 IN DAMAGES. WE ARE STILL WAITING FOR NISSAN TO APPROVE THE REPAIR OF THE LATCH AND DAMAGES. THEY NOW ARE TELLING US THAT THEY HAVE TO SEND AN ADJUSTER TO LOOK AT THE CAR AND THAT COULD TAKE WEEKS. IN THE MEAN TIME, WE ARE DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICHLE WITH CHILDREN.

MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT ON A THREE YEAR OLD CAR AS I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. I ATTEMPTED TO PUSH DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. AFTER I D ABLE TO PULL OVER AND ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE PUSHING DOWN ON THE GAS THE CAR BEGAN TO ROLL BACKWARDS. WHEN I SWITCH TO DIFFERENT GEARS THE CAR ROLLED BACKWARDS. I HAD TO BE TOWED O THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP.

RIGHT FRONT INSIDE DOOR HANDLE INOPERABLE. REPLACED INSIDE DOOR HANDLE ASSEMBLY (PART NUMBER 80670-3TA0D)

ON 12/25/15 AFTER LEAVING GAS STATION, HOOD OF CAR CAME OPEN AND CRASHED INTO WINDSHIELD. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND THANKFULLY THEIR WERE NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME NOR THE REAR OF ME. IT DID NOT CRACK THE WINDSHIELD, BUT DAMAGE HAS BE DONE TO HINGE AND SOME BODY DAMAGE WHEN THE HOOD FLEW OPEN.

VEHICLE STRUCK TREE, ENGULFED IN FLAMES. DRIVER, SOLE OCCUPANT, ALSO ENGULFED IN FLAMES INSIDE CAR. VEHICLE WAS ON CITY STREET, NO OTHER VEHICLES INVOLVED IN CRASH.

I HAVE A 2013 ALTIMA THAT SHUDDERS/HESITATE/VIBRATES INTERMITTENTLY UPON ACCELERATION. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE. UPON PICKING UP MY CAR, I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE PROBLEM STARTED AT APPROXIMATELY 25,000 MILES. I AM KNOW AT 54,000 MILES AND FEAR THAT THE WARRANTY WILL BE UP BEFORE A SOLUTION IS FOUND. THE SHUDDERING/VIBRATION/HESITANCY CAN HAPPEN ANYWHERE. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ONLINE AND FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS, HOWEVER, NO RECALLS.. I AM SURE NISSAN KNEW OF THE DEFECT PRIOR TO RELEASING THE VEHICLES AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONT TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE HOOD OF THE CAR CAME FLYING UP AND COMPLETELY COVERED THE WINDSHIELD. THE FORCE WAS SO GREAT THAT IT DAMAGED THE ROOF LINING INSIDE THE CAR AS WELL AS KNOCKED THE SUNGLASSES HOLDER OUT OF PLACE (HANGING BY A WIRE),

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60-65MPH, MY SUNROOF GLASS EXPLODED SHOWING ME WITH BROKEN GLASS. NO IMPACT WAS MADE TO THE SUNROOF. I WAS DRIVING ON LEVEL GROUND, NOT UNDER ANY OVERPASSES, OR BY ANYWHERE WHERE SOMETHING COULD HAVE BEEN THROWN.

PARKED VEHICLE AND COULD NOT GET OUT , THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE WOULD NOT WORK, HAD TO CRAWL OVER CONSOLE TO GET OUT ON PASSENGER SIDE. DROVE TO MY NISSAN DEALER TO GET IT CHECKED AND THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING THAT DAY SO AN APPOINTMENT WAS SET UP FOR NEXT DAY SEPT. 17TH, 2015. WHICH I THINK SHOULD HAVE BEEN AT LEAST LOOKED AT BECAUSE IF MY VEHICLE WOULD HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE OR IF I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT I COULDN'T HAVE GOT OUT OF THE CAR FAST. I WAS ALSO CHARGED FOR THIS REPAIR WHICH NOW I AM FIGHTING WITH NISSAN BECAUSE I AM STILL UNDER BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. WHICH HAVE ONLY OWNED THE CAR FOR 2 YEARS AND IT DOESN'T HAVE 36,000 MILES ON IT. THEY ARE TELLING ME I HAVE TO PAY BECAUSE OF WEAR AND TEAR. ALSO THE DEALER TOLD THAT I AM THE ONLY PERSON WITH THIS MODEL AND YEAR THAT HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE RESEARCHED THAT IN THE MODELS 2003-2008 HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM FIGHTING BECAUSE THEY HAVE CHARGED ME $114.98 TO FIX THE CABLE BECAUSE NO PARTS ARE ON MY RECEIPT AND MY CONSOLE WAS LOSE AND THEY ALSO CHARGED ME $45 TO TIGHTEN SCREWS. THE DEALER ALSO BLAMED THIS ON ME WHEN MY CAR HAS BE IN THEIR SHOP FOR PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG STAYING ON MANY TIMES , WHEN THEY DID THIS REPAIR MY PASSENGER SIDE SEAT WAS ALWAYS MOVED AND USED WHAT IS TO SAY THEY WEREN'T PUTTING THEIR WEIGHT ON MY CONSOLE. I HAVE OWNED MANY NEW VEHICLES AND NEVER HAD THIS HAPPEN. THIS IS MY THIRD NISSAN AND MY SECOND ONE BOUGHT FROM THIS DEALERSHIP. I WAS WONDERING IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND IF THERE IS SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP ME.

THE SECONDARY LATCH ON THE HOOD OF MY CAR FAILED - CAUSING MY HOOD TO FLY UP WHILE I WAS DRIVING.

BACKUP CAMERA QUALITY IS NOT VERY GOOD

SUNROOF RATTLING SINCE 2013.

CLUSTER FAILED AND SOME LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD ARE NOT VISIBLE. THIS IS KNOWN ISSUE SEE NTB14-049 AND SHOULD WARRANT A RECALL BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING ON DASHBOARD. COST IS 1000. CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND WAS TOLD THEY WON'T RECALL OR COVER REPAIR UNLESS YOUR OFFICE REQUIRES RECALL.

60033 MILES, NEEDED NEW CVT TRANSMISSION. 33 MILES OVER WARRANTY!!!!!

THE GLOW IN THE DARK EMERGENCY TRUNK RELEASE HANDLE PULLED OFF. EITHER THE ANGLE AT WHICH IT WAS POSITIONED OR THE MATERIALS MADE IT SO FLIMSY THAT IT PULLED OFF WITHIN THE TRUNK. I THOUGHT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS BUT I CAN'T SEE ON. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON INDICATING THAT THE AIR BAG IS OFF EVEN WHEN THERE IS A PERSON IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER FIRST ON MAY 28, 2013 AND WAS TOLD THE COMPUTER WAS RESET AND IF I CONTINUED TO HAVE A PROBLEM THEY WOULD INSTALL A NEW SENSOR. WHEN I RETURNED WITH A PROBLEM I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD NEED TO CONTACT NISSAN CUSTOMER AFFAIRS. I ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT THEM BY PHONE AND THEN SENT A LETTER TO NISSAN CUSTOMER AFFAIRS ON AUGUST 30, 2013. AN ATTEMPT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM WAS MADE BY THE DEALER ON SEPTEMER 12, 2013 BUT I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE ISSUE. I WAS TOLD THAT EVEN THOUGH THE LIGHT INDICATES THAT THE AIR BAG IS OFF IT WOULD DEPLOY IF THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT. I AM NOT CONVINCED. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM BUT AS EARLY AS YESTERDAY AUGUST 28, 2014 THE LIGHT WAS ON FOR ALMOST 50 MILES INDICATING THAT THE AIR BAG WAS OFF WHILE MY WIFE WAS SITTING ON THE PASSENGER SEAT.

CAR SHAKES AT 1900 RPM (EVERYTIME YOU PASS BY 1900RPM) AND WHEN STOPPED AT LIGHT (WHEN YOU HAVE BRAKES APPLIED). THIS VIBRATION CAN BE FEELED BY DRIVER & PASSENGER AND WHOLE CAR SHAKES. I HAD IT POINTED OUT DURING THE SERVICING/OIL CHANGES TO NISSAN TECHNICIAN AND ALL I GOT IS "IT IS NORMAL FOR CVT SO CAR WILL VIBRATE". THIS VIBRATION IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS ON AN AVG I DRIVER THE CAR FOR AN HOUR A DAY. AND IF I STOP AT LIGHTS FOR 10 MINUTES ON AN AVG, THEN I AM EXPOSING MY SELF TO THIS VIBRATION FOR THAT MUCH TIME A DAY WHICH IS BAD. ITS SPECIALLY BAD FOR MY LEGS. NISSAN DOES NOT HAVE A FIX AT THE MOMENT FOR THIS ISSUE BUT I EPXECT A BRAND NEW CAR NOT TO VIBRATE AS HORRIBLE AS THIS. MY 10 YEAR OLD CAR WAS MUCH SMOOTHER THEN THIS. THE OVERALL EXPERIANCE IS HORRIBLE AND WILL ADVISE ALL TO STAY AWAY FROM NISSAN BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT ADMITTING THE PROBLEM AND THEY DONT HAVE THE SOLUTION FOR SUCH A PROBLEM.
