Recalls and investigations
Latches/locks/linkages, hood, latchMay 28, 2020
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2018 Nissan Altima vehicles. If the primary hood latch is inadvertently released, there is an increased likelihood that the secondary hood latch may corrode over time.
Corrosion to the secondary latch may cause it to bind and remain in the unlatched position when the hood is closed. If the primary latch is inadvertently released again and the secondary latch is not engaged, the hood could unexpectedly open while driving, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will install a stronger release spring in the hood release lever, a warning label near the secondary hood latch, and an Owners Manual addendum card with instructions on how to lubricate and maintain the secondary hood latch mechanism, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 30, 2021. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Note: Recall 16V-029 remains open for any unremedied 2013-2015 Altimas and this recall applies to all vehicles covered by 16V-029 even if those repairs have already been performed.

Structure, emergency, escape/egress/exitDec 19, 2018
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Altima vehicles, previously remedied under recall number 17V-040. The door latch-lock cable may not have been routed properly in the rear door when the remedy was applied. As a result, the cable may interfere with the window regulator causing the rear passenger door to unlatch and inadvertently open without warning when the window is lowered.
If the rear passenger door opens while the vehicle is moving, the rear passengers have an increased risk of injury.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will secure the latch-lock cables in the correct position using the new remedy procedure, free of charge. The recall began February 5, 2019. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7669.

Latches/locks/linkages, doors, latchJan 18, 2017
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2015-2017 Altima vehicles. The rear door latch/lock cable on the vehicles may have been improperly routed. As a result, lowering a rear window may inadvertently cause that door to unlatch and open.
If the rear passenger doors inadvertently open while the vehicle is in motion, it may increase the risk of injury to the rear passengers.
Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will correct the rear door latch/lock cable routing, free of charge. The recall began on February 16, 2017. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

Air bags, sensor, occupant classificationApr 26, 2016
Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, LEAF, Sentra, and Pathfinder, 2014-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60, QX60 Hybrid, and Q50 Hybrid, 2014-2017 Nissan Rogue and Infiniti Q50, 2015-2016 Nissan Murano, Murano Hybrid, and Chevrolet City Express, 2014-2015 Nissan Pathfinder Hybrid, and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles. In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash.
If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury.
Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors. Dealers will reprogram the Air Bag Control Unit (ACU) and OCS Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in Altima, Maxima, Murano, Rogue, and Sentra vehicles, and replace the OCS ECU in LEAF, NV200, NV200 Taxi, Pathfinder, Infiniti Q50, JX35, and QX60 and Chevrolet City Express vehicles, free of charge. Interim notices were sent to owners on May 31, 2016. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts become available. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669, Infiniti customer service at 1-888-833-3216 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020.

The car stalls out when driving. Gas is engaged but car will not move. Jerks, bumps. Within a few seconds, car resumes movements but jerks.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Fuel/propulsion system, Feb 9, 2022
I just purchased this vehicle with 93,000 miles and good condition. A warning or indicator light never comes on but sporadically I will be driving around 40-50mph & if I let off of the gas something happens where no matter how hard or fast I press the accelerator the car looses power. I can press the accelerator all the way to the floor & still not speed up. The car will slowly decrease speed until about 30mph or either I have to take my foot off of the accelerator totally & press hard about 1/4 on the accelerator to regain power. It feels like the pressure behind the accelerator disappears when all of this happens. There is no dimming of lights or anything obvious. It happens when my Mom drives also. I have lost power trying to pass a car or turn with oncoming traffic ahead. It scares me.

Power train, Vehicle speed control, Oct 13, 2021
I have had this 2016 Nissan Altima SR for the past 5 years (1st owner) and it just began giving me acceleration issues about 2 months ago. At random times, while at a stop, reversing, doing a u-turn or changing gears, I step on the accelerator and it will not move. I have pushed all the way down on the accelerator and it won't budge for about 10 seconds, until then, it will just throw itself at a really high speed. There is no warning or light on the dashboard stating something is wrong. It does it at random times. There have been numerous times were I have been put at risk of a car accident because of this issue. Once, I was at a green light waiting to make a left, and when I had a chance to turn before the oncoming cars, I went for it, only to have the accelerator not work and go REALLY slowly (as if it was on neutral). At that speed, I was midway and the oncoming car was honking at me as it was getting closer. I kept stepping on the accelerator and nothing would happen. Luckily, a few seconds later it threw itself to a really high speed and I was able to make it before the oncoming car hit me. I have taken it to the dealer, only to find out I would be charged $169 for a diagnostics test and even then they wouldn't guarantee anything because it doesn't have any kind of warning light on the dashboard. The dealer then stated it could possibly be the transmission or throttle body. How is it possible for me to waste so much money on something the dealer itself is so unsure of the results? How can they guarantee they can fix the issue without happening again and possibly getting into an accident? I have heard of other Altima owners who have been told it is the transmission and they change it, only to have the same problems all over again. This issue really needs to be looked at before it gets more serious and cause devastating accidents. Thankfully it has not done that to me on the fwy yet.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Service brakes, Sep 4, 2021, crash
Upon arriving to my grandson's daycare, I applied by brake and put my car in park and suddenly my car accelerated at a fast speed. My car moved forward across an area that the children are usually playing in, but because it was raining they were inside. Thank God! I can't even imagine what would have happened. My car finally stopped because I was trying to avoid the daycare's shed, but hit the corner of the shed and this stopped the car. The air bag did not deploy as well. I am thankful to be alive and unharmed, but most thankful that no one else was harmed. My husband took photos of the brake marks on the pavement and grass and of the vehicle after collision with the shed and showing it was in park.

My problem: While i was leaving work returning to my apartment my car (2016 Nissan Altima S ~ 2.4L, 4 cylinder, 75k miles, Black) was operating fine nothing out of the ordinary. As I approached a stop sign and stop my car it was still acting normal. However, as i accelerated to take my turn i notice that my car wasn’t moving normal it didn’t accelerate pass 15 mph but the RPM was going up it went up to 5k RPM with no speed change it felt like i was on neutral. (No, I wasn’t in neutral) it was on D i even placed the car in Ds to see if the problem was only on drive but the same problem occurred on Ds. As soon as i noticed that the car wasn’t accelerating and after the person who was driving behind me got mad i moved my car to the break down lane. I powered cycled the car (turn it off and back on) and it was functioning correctly. My friend had the same problem occur to his car which is Answer to Question: 1)I don’t know which specific part is the problem. I do know this isn’t the first case the same problem occurred on a 2015 Nissan Altima S i have a 2016 Nissan Altima S. This happened to the other car a few months prior to the date of my incident which happened August 30, 2021 at approximately 5pm. Yes, it’s available for inspection upon request. 2)My safety was put at risk because I couldn’t accelerate properly to turn my car so I basically slowly cruised into traffic luckily i was able to steer to the side of the road. 3)No, it has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer. The problem is it happened suddenly with no warning of any problems. I only have 75k highway miles on the car with no lights, no accidents, only 5 years old and is in great shape. What makes it difficult to be reproduced is the fact that the problem randomly occurs and when the car goes through a power cycle the problem disappears and reoccurs randomly. 4)There were no warning lights and no problem prior to the car and it first occurred August 30, 2021 at approximately 5pm.

The RPMS are jumping while driving ,, car shut off while driving , car is sputtering and jerking and changing gears are not smooth.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Fuel/propulsion system, Jul 21, 2021
Car loses power while driving on highways or roads and had nearly cost me my life on occasion where the vehicle cannot complete a turn from loss of power and I cannot proceed and obstruct oncoming vehicle paths. It has also revved up out of the blue to 6000-7000 RPMs despite a holding steady pace on the gas pedal. The speed jolts and has nearly caused me to rear end unsuspecting vehicles. Sometimes the vehicle cannot accelerate and has NO POWER after coming to a full stop at a red light or stop sign. I have been unable to receive help for any of these issues despite many diagnoses and lots of money spent. And it was not made aware to me, an owner of a Nissan Altima vehicle that there is a known probability of failure with CVTs in use in Altima’s of my hear. That lack of effort and total disregard for the lives of customers in similar Nissan vehicles is absolutely disgraceful and unacceptable! Furthermore, they try to deny it and try to take zero fault. Nissan is denying fault for faulty CVT in my vehicle and made NO ATTEMPT to notify owners of affected NISSAN vehicles and is NOT rectifying the issue or admitting their lack of effort on making owners of affected Nissan vehicles aware of issues and threatening consumer wellbeing

After driving for a period of time (not too far, but more than just around the block) when I come to a stop at a stoplight or stop sign and try to accelerate again, there is a long delay of around 3-5 seconds and then my car will “launch”. I can push the pedal all the way to the floor and nothing happens. Then it will suddenly take off. This is a hazard while trying to turn out into traffic, if I would have to accelerate out of the way of a vehicle approaching me from any angle while at a stoplight or stop sign. Trying to cross intersections that only have 2 way stops, and for many other reasons that are pretty self explanatory. This sits very uneasy with me especially when my wife and child are riding with me. I brought this up to the dealer and they found no codes and could not recreate it, but did reprogram my ecm to most current programming per NTB13-054D. That cost $140 and did not fix my issue. It seems like to recreate the issue the car has to be driven for a little while (at lease 20-30 mins on the highway) before it begins acting up. It also seems like hot weather contributes to the issue as well.I drive an hour each way to work, so it pretty much acts up for me 2x a day since it has gotten warm out.

Stopped propelling the car. Might be a transmission problem.
Vehicle speed control, Engine, Mar 8, 2021
I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE, AN WHEN I WOULD START FROM 1ST GEAR MY VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE WHEN TAKING OFF. I HAD TAKEN IT IN TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM TAKE LOOK AT IT. THE TECH HAD TOLD ME IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION. I'VE HAD THEM LOG THAT INFO. NOW IT'S FUTURE AND THAT PROBLEM HAD ESCALATED TO WHERE IT STILL DOES THE SHAKING BUT ALOT WORSE. NOW IT DOESN'T WANT TO SHIFT OUT OF 2ND GEAR. AT THE TIME OF ME DRIVING THE VEHICLE I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AND THE VEHICLE HAD SLIPPED OUT OF GEAR AN IT SEEMED AS IT CAME OUT OF GEAR AN DROPPED TO A LOWER GEAR ALMOST CAUSING A MAJOR ACCIDENT.

CAR HAS DELAYED ACCELERATION. IF I'M AT A RED LIGHT, CAR WILL NOT GO AT A READ LIGHT EVEN IF I PUSH GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN. I HATE IT WHEN IT HAPPENS AND MY KIDS ARE IN THE CAR. HAPPENS WHEN I'M TURNING TOO AND ALMOST GOT HIT YESTERDAY WITH MY KIDS IN THE CAR
Vehicle speed control, Engine, Sep 12, 2020
TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT AT 53,000 MILES. THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY EVEN THOUGH RPM IS REVVING THERE IS NO POWER TO THE CAR. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN MAKING TURNS OUT IN FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC BECAUSE WHEN YOU GO TO TURN CAR LOSES POWER SO YOU CAN EASILY GET T- BONED.THE CAR HAS EVEN TURNED OFF COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY LOSING ALL POWER INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THIS OCCURRED BEFORE THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AT ABOUT 40,000 MILES.
Vehicle speed control, Jun 5, 2020
WHEN I COME TO AS STOP AND THEN TRY TO ACCELERATE AGAIN THE CAR WILL BE REAL SLUGGISH. IT HAS DELAYED ACCELERATION. IF I'M ON THE FREEWAY AND STOP AND THEN TRY TO ACCELERATE IT TAKES A LONG TIME SO TAKE OFF. I HAVE ALMOST CRASHED A FEW TIMES DUE TO THIS. IF I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON THEN IT RUNS LIKE NORMAL. BUT IF I STOP AND ACCELERATE IT DOES IT AGAIN. *TR
Power train, Vehicle speed control, May 26, 2020
WHEN I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP MY TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY GIVES OUT AND I HAVE TO CUT OFF MY CAR IN TRAFFIC TO RESTART THE TRANSMISSION. THIS HAPPENS AS LONG AS I'M DRIVING MY CAR. I BRING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. JUST A DISGRACE. *TR

I PURCHASED THIS CAR FOR MY WIFE TO DRIVE HER AND OUR THREE CHILDREN. SOMETHING WAS GOING ON MAKING THE CAR STALL WHEN PRESSING THE GAS AND SOMETIMES ACCELERATE. THE RPM WOULD GO ALL THE WAY UP EVEN WHEN TAKING FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN NEWARK DELAWARE AND THEY KEPT IT FOR A WEEK. I BELIEVE THEY SAID THEY HAD TO REPAIR SOMETHING ON THE TRANSMISSION. WHATEVER WAS WRONG THEY COVERED IT UNDER WARRANTY. AFTER A WEEK WE GOT THE CAR BACK AND MY WIFE DROVE TO NEW JERSEY TO VISIT FAMILY WITH THE KIDS ABOUT 45 MINUTES AWAY. WHILE COMING BACK ON THE DELAWARE MEMORIAL BRIDGE THE CAR RPM ROSE ALL THE WAY UP MAKING THE CAR ACCELERATE BEHIND ANOTHER CAR ALMOST RAMMING THE BACK OF ANOTHER CAR. SHAKEN FROM WHAT JUST HAPPENED SHE DROVE SLOW AND CAREFUL THE REST OF THE WAY HOME ABOUT 10 MINUTE DRIVE FROM THE BRIDGE. I TRIED TO CHECK IT OUT MYSELF BECAUSE WE JUST GOT IT BACK AFTER A WEEK SO IT SHOULD NOT BE HAVING ANYMORE TROUBLE BUT THE CAR THEN WOULD NOT START. THE BATTERY DIED FROM TRYING TO START IT. AFTER ALL THAT WE DID A VOLUNTARY SURRENDER DUE TO THE CAR NOT BEING SAFE. SHE FELT IF SHE AND THE KIDS GOT BACK IN IT SHE WOULD JUST BE ASKING FOR SOMETHING BAD TO HAPPEN. IT ONLY HAD ABOUT 39000 MILES SO SHOULD NOT BE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AROUND SAME TIME CAR BEGAN TO EXHIBIT ACCELERATION ISSUES, LIKE STALLING, SLIPPING INTO 2ND GEAR, AND ENGINE CUT OUT WHEN ACCELERATING DURING BOTH NORMAL CITY AND HIGHWAY DRIVING. SENSORS READ BY CERTIFIED MECHANIC, AND DEALERSHIP INDICATED OXYGEN SENSOR FAILURE AND THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND THE O2 SENSOR. AFTER REPAIRS AND PART REPLACEMENTS, 2 WEEKS LATER ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS BEGAN TO REOCCUR. SEVERAL MECHANIC RECOMMENDED GETTING RID OF THE CAR AS THEY CAN NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUES AND DON'T WANT TO WASTE MY TIME OR MONEY. CONTACT ART'S AUTOMOTIVE IN BERKELEY CALIFORNIA

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON TWICE WITHIN 3 MONTHS OF USING THIS CAR. AND IT WAS ONE OF THE SEVERE TYPES OF ILLNESS THE CAR HAS, IF NOT FIXED I COULD'VE BEEN STUCK ON A REMOTE AREA WITH NO PHONE RECEPTION, WHICH WHERE I LIVE BY THE WAY. THE CAR HAD A SLOW ACCELERATION, WHEN I STOPPED ON A STOP LIGHT/SIGN. HAD THAT FIXED ON DECEMBER RIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS WEEK, BUT ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AFTER 2 WEEKS OF DRIVING IT, CAR WON'T SHIFT GEARS AGAIN, SLOW ACCELERATION, PROBABLY HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH ITS TRANSMISSION ETC.

I HAVE A 2016 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH 85,000 MILES THAT IS CURRENTLY EXPERIENCING SOME ISSUES. I'VE FOUND MULTIPLE PEOPLE ONLINE THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE AT TIMES WHEN PUSHING DOWN THE ACCELERATOR WILL NOT RESPOND THEN SUDDENLY TAKE OFF LIKE IT'S IN 3RD GEAR. THIS HAS CAUSED ME TOO GET STUCK IN INTERSECTIONS WITH NO POWER AND NEARLY CAUSING ACCIDENTS. NISSAN IS SAYING THERE IS NO ISSUE. HOW CAN THIS NOT BE A SAFETY RECALL?

ACCELERATING ONTO THE HIGHWAY ON YESTERDAY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CANE ON AS WELL AND MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WHICH CAUSED MY CAR TO LOSE POWER. I WAS ABLE TO GET RIGHT BACK OFF THE FREEWAY AND TURN INTO A NEIGHBORHOOD. WHEN I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON IT STARTED WITH THE SAME LIGHTS ON. I HAD MY TRANSMISSION REBUILT AT 73,000 MILES WITH A 12,000 MILE WARRANTY ALREADY BUT I DON'T THINK THAT MY TRANSMISSION IS THE ISSUE THIS TIME. I HAD TO GET MY CAR TOWED TO THE NISSAN OF GRAPEVINE DEALERSHIP AGAIN BECAUSE I REFUSE TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH MY 3 MONTH OLD AND SIXTEEN YEAR OLD IN THE CAR

STARTED VEHICLE THIS MORNING AND PUT IN REVERSE AND PRESSED THE PEDAL TO BACK OUT AND HAD A DELAYED REACTION AND THE RPM'S JUST INCREASED. THE CAR DID NOT MOVE FOR APPROXIMATELY FOUR TO FIVE SECONDS AND FINALLY BACKED OUT. PLACED THE CAR IN DRIVE AND DROVE TOWARD A STOP SIGN APPROXIMATELY 100 YARDS AWAY AND IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS LOSING POWER AS I TRIED TO ACCELERATE AND AGAIN THE RPM'S INCREASED BUT SEEMED LIKE IT WOULD NOT MOVE. DROVE VEHICLE BACK HOME AND WITH SAME ISSUES AND PARKED FOR ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES. TRIED TO DUPLICATE BUT DROVE JUST FINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE WHILE AT A RED LIGHT ABOUT A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. TRIED ACCELERATING AND WOULD BARELY ACCELERATE LIKE IT HAD NO POWER. PLACED IN PARK, CUT THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES, I HIT THE ACCELERATOR AND IT DARTED OFF. LUCKILY, THERE HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENTS BUT HAVE CONCERNS IF THIS HAPPENS WHILE ON A HIGHWAY. THIS ALTIMA ON HAS OVER 53K MILES AND HAVE NO IDEA WHY THIS IS HAPPENING BECAUSE I AM NOT A MECHANIC BUT HAVE READ SEVERAL STATEMENTS ON THE INTERNET FROM OTHERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. NOT SURE WHY NISSAN HAS NOT PLACED A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE BUT IS VERY UNSAFE.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Oct 25, 2019
16 NISSAN ALTIMA SOMETIMES HAS ABOUT A 5 SECOND DELAY IN ACCELERATION AS CAR JUST IDLES AND SLOWLY ROLLS AHEAD. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN YOU ARE TAKING OFF AND CROSSING ON COMING TRAFFIC. TOOK IT TO NISSAN DEALER THEY SAID NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE IT DOESNT SHOW AN ERROR CODE. SAME WITH NISSAN USA CORPERATION. SAYS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNTILL SHOWS A CODE OR FAILS COMPLETELY. SO BASICALL THEY ARE SAYING THAT THIS VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE? NEW TRANSMISSION ABOUT 4500 DOLLARS. MY WARRANTY RUNS OUT AT 90,000 MILES, WICH IS AN AFTERMARKET WARRANTY THAT I PAID 2500 $ FOR. IM SURE THAT THEY HOPE THE WARRANTY EXPIRES SO I GET THE BILL. NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH CVT TRANSMISSIONS, AND FOOTPEDAL POSITION SENSORS AND DOES NOTHING ABOUT IT. HOW CAN THEY BE IN BUISNESS? HOW VAN THEY TELL ME IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE LIKE THIS. I THINK IT SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE.
Power train, Vehicle speed control, Oct 20, 2019
ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AFTER PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR. IN ADDITION TO THIS NOW THE TRANSMISSION WILL NOT UP SHIFT FOR ROAD SPEED. VEHICLE, WHEN PLACED IN PARK OR NEUTRAL, WILL REV UP WHEN ACCELERATOR IS PUSHED BUT NOT WHILE TRANSMISSION IS ENGAGED IN DRIVE. AGAIN THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE PAST 4-6 MONTHS. THE SHIFTING EPISODE OCCURRED IN ADDITION TO THE AFORE MENTIONED PROBLEM TODAY 20 OCT 2019.
