I AM SUBMITTING A COMPLAINT REGARDING THE CVT- BACK IN AUG 2015 I WAS OUT OF TOWN AND WAS TRAVELING HOME AND NOTICED WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTED TO DECELERATE. THE SCARY PART WAS THERE WAS AN 18 WHEELER BEHIND ME. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON-I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. I WAS ALONE AND SCARED AND HAD 300 MILES TO GO. WHAT SHOULD HAVE TAKEN 6 HOURS TOOK ME 11 HOURS BECAUSE I HAD STOP EVERY 30-45 MINUTES. I TOOK IT TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THEY STATED NISSAN HAD TO GO THROUGH THE STEPS BEFORE REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION- BUT AT WHAT COST- WHEN SOMEONE DIES- THEY INSTALLED A CVT OIL COOLER KIT -WELL GUESS WHAT ? 1 YEAR AND 3 MONTHS LATER ON MY FIRST LONG DISTANCE TRIP SINCE LAST YEAR. THE SAME EXACT THING OCCURRED EXCEPT I HAVE 600 MILES BEFORE I GET HOME. I WAS STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ALONE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THANK GOD THE TRUCK BEHIND ME DID NOT HIT ME OR I INJURY SOMEONE ELSE DUE TO THIS ISSUE NISSAN CONTINUES TO IGNORE. I HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, COULD NOT GET A RENTAL BECAUSE IT WAS A SUNDAY AND THEY WERE CLOSED. SO NOW I'M IN AN UNKNOWN AREA WAITING TO SEE WHAT NISSAN DOES THIS TIME.

THE CAR DOES NOT START. TOOK OUT BATTERY AND WAS TOLD IT WAS GOOD. CHARGED IT UP AND CAR STARTED. DONE THIS MANY TIMES. TOOK IN TO NISSAN AND THEY KEPT IT 3DAYS. COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AND PUT IN A NEW BATTERY. LAST NIGHT, HAD A HARD TIME GETTING IT STARTED WHEN PUSHING THE START BUTTON. RADIO THOUGH COMES ON.

DASHBOARD IS MELTING FROM THE HEAT AND SUN, HAS BECOME STICKY, UN-CLEANABLE AND CAUSING A TERRIBLE REFLECTION ON THE WINDSHIELD BOTH DAY AND NIGHT. ISSUE APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE EVERY WEEK AS THIS CAR SITS OUTSIDE 24/7 NOT ALWAYS IN THE SHADE. I CALLED NISSAN OF AMERICAN AND THEY SETUP AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE CAR LOOKED AT BY MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP/SERVICE CENTER. THE END RESULT WAS A WASTED DAY AND I WAS TOLD THAT SINCE THE CAR WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY (80K MILES AND 5 YEARS OLD) THERE IS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME. ESTIMATED REPLACEMENT COST OF $2000. A FEW MONTHS LATER MY AC CONDENSER COIL WAS DIAGNOSED BY NISSAN WITH A LEAK. NISSAN SAID IT WOULD BE ABOUT $1500 TO REPLACE (AND THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN NOTED THAT DUE TO THE CONDITION OF MY DASHBOARD THEY COULD NOT MAKE ANY GUARANTEE TO THE CONDITION OF THE DASH AFTER THE REPAIR AND RECOMMENDED DASH REPLACEMENT AS WELL BRING MY REPAIR TOTAL TO AND ESTIMATED $3500. WITH THE AC RECHARGED (BUT NOT FIXED) I BROUGHT THE CAR OVER TO CARMAX TO SEE WHAT THEY WOULD GIVE ME FOR THE CAR. THEY SAILD ALTHOUGH MOST ALTIMAS OF THIS MILEAGE AND CONDITION WOULD BE WORTH AT LEAST $6500-$7000 DUE TO THE DASHBOARD CONDITION (NEEDS REPLACEMENT ACCORDING TO THEIR PAPERWORK) THEY OFFERED ME $4500 FOR THE CAR.
Seat belts, Oct 5, 2016, crash
UPON IMPACT WITH ANOTHER CAR (MY FRONT HITTING OTHER CAR'S SIDE AT APPROXIMATELY 40 TO 45 MPH), BOTH FRONT AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND THE SEAT BELTS FOR DRIVER AND PASSENGER UNLATCHED. WITHOUT THE PROTECTION OF THE SEAT BELTS, OUR LOWER TORSO AND LEGS SHIFTED FORWARD, CAUSING INJURIES TO OUR HIPS, KNEES AND ANKLE. OUR CAR WENT INTO ONGOING TRAFFIC AND THEN LANDED IN SOMEONE'S YARD. IF WE WOULD HAVE STRUCK A SECOND CAR AND THE AIR BAGS STARTED TO DEFLATE, WE WOULD HAVE BEEN WITHOUT ANY PROTECTION FOR THE SECOND COLLISION. WE THANK GOD FOR OUR PROTECTION! WE DID CONTACT NISSAN MANUFACTURING WITH AN INVESTIGATOR. HE COULD NOT VIEW THE CAR IN SALVAGE AS IT MOVED ALREADY TO FINAL PROCESSING FROM BEING TOTALED.

THE VEHICLE COULD NOT START WHEN TRYING TO START THE ENGINE, 'THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS UP, AND 'THE ENGINE DOES NOT CRANK, (NO CRANK, NO START), (HYBRID 'READY' WILL NOT LIGHT), AND 'THE IGNITION PUSH BUTTON IS NOT RESPONSIVE (NO ACTION OCCURS WHEN THE BUTTON IS PRESSED ADDITIONAL TIMES). THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS

MY 19 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HER CAR DOWN THE ROAD WHEN IT STOPPED ACCELERATING ACTING AS IF THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. SHE COULD NOT GET THE CAR TO GO ABOVE 25 MILES AN HOUR. SHE WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT AND WAIT FOR HER DAD TO COME AND HELP HER. WHEN HER DAD GOT THERE THE CAR WAS SLUGGISH AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE BECAUSE IT FELT LIKE THE BRAKES WERE BEING APPLIED. HE SWITCHED THE CAR TO MANUAL AND WAS ABLE TO GET IT HOME. THE ABS, VDC OFF, SLIP LIGHTS ALL CAME ON. THE NEXT DAY ALL LIGHTS WERE OFF AND THE CAR DROVE NORMALLY. THIS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES INTERMITTENTLY AT WHICH TIME WE TOOK IT INTO OUR MECHANIC. HE DISCOVERED A POWER BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED REPLACING. HE BELIEVED THIS WAS A SAFETY RECALL AS IT HAD BEEN A RECALL ON THE 2007, 2008 AND 2009 NISSAN ALTIMA. MUCH TO OUR DISMAY NISSAN HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE 2010 MODELS. MY MECHANIC TOLD US THIS WAS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY NISSAN.

DASH IS SO MELTED AND REFLECTS SUN SO MUCH IT I CANNOT SEE WHILE DRIVING OR STOPPED. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR 2008 AND 2009 ALTIMAS FOR THIS SAME DEFECT. TOYOTA RECALLED FOR THEIR MELTED DASHBOARD. NHTSA NEEDS TO CARE ABOUT OUR SAFETY AND RECALL ALTIMAS!

MELTED DASHBOARD CAUSES TERRIBLE GLARE EARLIER THIS YEAR I CONTACTED NISSAN'S REGIONAL OFFICE TO EXPLAIN THAT MY CAR'S DASHBOARD HAS MELTED. THE MELTING OF THE DASHBOARD IS SO TERRIBLE IT CREATES A GLARE WHEN THE SUNLIGHT HITS IT. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED IMAGES. IN ADDITION, I HAVE NO IDEA IF THE MELTING OF THE DASHBOARD IS CREATING TOXIC AIR, WHICH I AM BREATHING IN EACH TIME I USE MY CAR. I HAVE BEEN SICK ALL YEAR AND CAN ONLY ATTRIBUTE THIS TO MY FAILED DASHBOARD. NISSAN EXPLAINED TO ME THAT THE ONLY REMEDY IS TO COMPLETELY REPLACE THE DASHBOARD, BUT THEY WILL NOT INCUR THE CHARGES BECAUSE THE CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. NISSAN QUOTED THAT THE REPAIR WOULD BE $2,381.43, BUT I AM NOT ABLE TO PAY THIS CONSIDERING I AM A TEACHER AND HAVE TO TUTOR TO MAKE ENDS MEET. I HAVE DONE MUCH RESEARCH AND SEEN THAT MANY COSTUMERS FACE THE SAME PROBLEM I DO DATING BACK TO THE 2008 MODELS. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT NISSAN SHOULD BE MADE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING. I HAVE CLEANED AND TAKEN CARE OF MY CAR SINCE I BOUGHT IT AND DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY I HAVE TO PAY FOR THESE CHANGES OR MORE IMPORTANTLY'PUT MY LIFE OR OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVES IN DANGER BECAUSE I HAVE A HARD TIME SEEING THROUGH MY WINDSHIELD. PLEASE HELP THE COUNTLESS OTHERS AND MYSELF IN THIS SITUATION!!!

I HAVE NUMEROUS STARTING PROBLEMS AND THE VDC,ABS, AND SLIP LIGHT COME ON WHILE DRIVING. SOMETIMES IT CAN TAKE 4 OR 5 TRIES UNTIL THE VEHICLE STARTS WITH THE PUSH BUTTON START. THE BATTERY,ALTERNATOR AND STARTER HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND FOUND TO BE IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE NUMEROUS LIGHTS THAT COME ON WHILE DRIVING PRESENT A PROBLEM ESPECIALLY IF THE ABS SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING.

TAKATA RECAL. WE PURCHASED VEHICLE USED. OUR 2ND ALTIMA. HAD PROBLEMS ABOUT 6 MONTHS AFTER GETTING THE CAR. IT WOULDN'T START. BRAKES WOULDN'T EVEN COMPRESS. REPLACED BATTERY AND WORKED FOR A FEW WEEKS. SAME ISSUE CONTINUED. CABIN LIGHTS WOULD COME ON, NEW BATTERY BUT STILL NOT STARTING. HAD STARTER REPLACED AND WORKED FOR A WHILE AGAIN. SAME ISSUE AGAIN. GET STUCK IN RANDOM PLACES. SOME DAYS IT STARTS, OTHERS IT DOESN'T. CALLING FOR A JUM START DOESN'T WORK EITHER. UNRELIABLE AND UNSTABLE. CALLED DEALERSHIP, MOSSY NISSAN. THEY WANTS OVER $200 JUST FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND THEN COULD BE A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS. ALSO SAID BREAK HARNESS/SWITCH SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM. VDC LIGHTS ALSO COME ON AT RANDOM TIMES WHILE DRIVING. THERE SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH THESE MODELS. NISSAN SHOULD HANDLE ALL REPAIR EXPENSES. CAR WAS STATIONARY AT ALL TIMES IT WOULDN'T START. THIS WEEK IS WOULDN'T START 3 TIMES. LAST WEEK IT WAS 5 TIMES. THE WHOLE MONTH WAS 17 TIMES OUT OF 31 DAYS. PLEASE RECALL.

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG SENSOR DID NOT WORK. HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHICH CONTAINED THE SENSOR FOR THE AIRBAG. NISSAN HAS RECALLED 2013 ALTIMAS TO CORRECT THIS EXACT PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY IT COST ME $800. TO CORRECT MY PROBLEM. I'M SURE I'M NOT THE ONLY OWNER OF AN EARLIER MODEL TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM.

THE PASSANGER AIR BAG LIGHT IS STAYING ON SHOWING THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS OFF. TOOK TO NISSIAN AND THEY ARE TELLING ME ITS THE SENSOR AND THAT THE WHOLE SEAT HAS TO BE REPLACED. IM NOT SURE WHAT IS CAUSING THIS BUT NISSIAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS. I SEE THEY RECALLED 2013-2016, BUT I THINK THEY NEED TO LOOK INTO THIS YEAR MODELS TOO. ITS THE SAME ISSUE THE OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING WITH THE ONES THAT ARE RECALLED. IM SO FRUSTRATED. AIR BAGS SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE FIXED IMMEDIATLY AT NO COST! WE BUY A CAR TO FEEL SAFE WHEN WE ARE DRIVING NOT TO WORRY ABOUT OUR SAFETY

THE CVT TRANSMISSION STARTED SHIFTING HARD A FEW MONTHS AGO. THEN ABOUT A MONTH AGO THE TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING. I EXITED THE FREEWAY AND CAME TO A LIGHT. TURNED LEFT AND WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION WHEN THE CAR WOULD NOT GO. I WAS NERVIOUS AND PUSHED THEN PUMPED THE GAS AND THE CAR WOULD NOT GO. THEN OUT OF THE BLUE IT TOOK OFF WITH OUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS. I HAD THE TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGED. THEN A FEW WEEKS LATTER I WAS DRIVING 75 (SPEED LIMIT) WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON THEN THE CAR STARTED LOOSING POWER, 65,60 55. I ACCELERATED THE CAR AND IT JUST WOULD NOT GO FASTER. I WAS ABLE TO STOP IT WITH THE CRUISE AT 55. WITH FLASHERS ON COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. STARTED MY RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT NISSAN HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY BY DOUBLING IT FROM 5 YEARS/60,000 TO 10 YEARS/120,000 MILES. MY ISSUE IS MY CAR IS ONLY 6 YEARS OLD WITH 128,000 MILES AND NISSAN HAS MY CAR IN THEIR SHOP AND WILL NOT FIX IT. I BELIEVE THE CVT TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE SOMEONE GET KILLED. I HAVE VERY SERVICE RECORD SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH 12 MILES ON IT. THE CAR HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED.
