2013 Nissan Altima 4 DR FWD

Unknown

There was no incident but I went to the Nissan dealership because my airbag sensor light was on and I was told that the passenger airbag or all of the cars airbags were malfunctioning and would possibly not deploy if in an accident. This is a major safety issue and there should be a recall on this.

My 2013 Nissan Altima has serious electrical problems and continues to drain my battery, leaving me seeking alternative transportation to and from home, work, etc. The headlight low and high beams are dangerously dim! I have replaced the bulbs several times and the problems continues to get worse. I have seen litigation online with numerous people involved. I thought NTSB would have acted by now? I have also had numerous problems with the AC not working? I am getting estimates currently looking at a $2,000 problem. This car seems very unsafe and any action form your agency would be greatly appreciated! Thank you, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The contact stated that she took the vehicle to the dealer and was informed that the OCS sensor and module had failed and needed to be replaced. The failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V911000 (Air Bags) however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 156,000.

The headlights at night are so dim that I can barely see to drive. I know this to be an ongoing problem due to research. Nissan has never once recalled for this problem on my vehicle. It’s dangerous and prevents me from getting full use of a vehicle I paid for. Brights work fine

Low beam headlights are dangerously dim. Drivers side is so bad, I thought the headlight was burnt out however its not. Passengers side is very dim. It is so bad that this car is only driven during daylight hours, it is too dangerous to drive at night and during inclement weather due to the dim low beams, visibility is horrific. After replacing the headlight bulbs there was no improvement. Im told the lining of the projectors inside the headlight assembly are bad therefore not projecting the beam properly. The headlight assembly's will finally be replaced in 2 weeks. Headlight assembly's should not go bad. Ive never had this issue with any vehicle in my lifetime. The expensive fix should not come out of my pocket, Nissan should recall this issue and repair at their expense.

The lights on this car have always had an issue ever since I bought it off the lot in 2014 new with 35 miles on the car. The first couple of years I continued to return to the dealer where I bought the car to have them replace the lights but I got tired of dealing with returning to not get favorable results. It for sure is a Nissan issue. The cosmetic light strips on the rearview mirrors on both sides of the vehicle also had condensation visibly in the strips as well. I had those also supposedly replaced as well. The issue is still there all these years later just got annoyed with returning to the dealer and wasting lots of time with no results. I have pictures of the issue dated a few weeks after buying the car in 2014, May. The headlights look pretty dull and not bright when driving. I am on this website to see in fact if there is a recall on the lights but apparently there is not.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving approximately 65 MPH, the vehicle suddenly jerked and would no longer accelerate properly. The vehicle was driven to the local dealer who diagnosed that the transmission was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The contact indicated that the transmission was previously replaced for the same failure, but the failure recurred. The failure mileage was 97,722.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the headlights were dim however, there was no fog or coating on the headlight assemblies that could have caused the failure. The contact stated that other vehicles would either flash their hi-beam lights or sound their horn to inform him that his lights were not on even while the headlights were activated. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who stated that the headlights needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 65,000

Very hard to steer and check engine light come on after a very loud beep.

The low beam headlights are so dim that it is near impossible to drive at night. There is no haze on the exterior part of the headlight. I have tried replacing the bulbs but it did not improve the visibility. I first noticed it summer of 2020, but it has gotten much worse over time.

Low beams are too dim, even with replacing with new bulbs

I received a recall notice in the mail today for a defective hood latch. I called Bill Robertson Nissan in Pasco, Wa to set up an appointment to get the latch replaced. I was told that they are out of the parts that are needed to fix the problem.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that upon coming to a complete stop, the vehicle stalled without warning. The contact stated that soon after the restart, the vehicle again stalled without warning. She also stated that the vehicle would hesitate while in reverse with an abnormal, clunking sound coming from the engine. The contact then took the vehicle to a dealer where the vehicle was diagnosed with transmission failure. The manufacturer was also notified of the failure and informed her that there were no recalls on the vehicle and that the warranty had expired. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the gear shifter would remain stuck in the park position and a screwdriver was used to unlock the gear shift lever. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the gear shift actuator was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 44,000.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving at unknown speeds, the vehicle started hesitating. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact parked on the side of the street for approximately 10 minutes before continuing driving to her destination. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic and had an unknown component tied; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 67,000.

The lowbeam headlights have gotten extremely dim. I have not driven this car at night for some time, and on October 5th, 2021 I did drive at night. When I switched my lights to lowbeam for oncoming traffic and could not believe how dim they were!! My lowbeam headlights barely projected 50 feet. There is no way in the world I can safely drive this car at night anymore!!!! I changed the halogen bulbs and it made no difference. After searching the internet I found out this is a common problem with this model/year Nissan. Why hasn't a recall been issued?!?! The only way I can safely drive this car at night would be to replace both headlight assemblies, and I do not have the $$ to do that. Please Help!

When a passenger sits in the front seat the airbag light on the dashboard indicates the airbag isn't armed. I have had a Nissan dealer "fix" it three times and it starts again in a few weeks. First time dealer said a connection came loose when the seat was adjusted. Same thing the second time and the third time they said they secured the connection. the light came on in a matter of weeks again . I will take the car back for a fourth time soon. I asked the dealer service rep if there were any service bulletins regarding this problem, he said there weren't any, I feel that I can't have the only car with this problem. Whenever there is a passenger in the front seat I worry about being involved in an accident and their airbag not deploying.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while his wife was driving 55 MPH, the vehicle began to jerk and then seized. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not drivable. The vehicle was towed to a storage garage. The contact called and notified the local dealer about the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 135,000.

Gear shift got stuck in park one day at grocery store. When trying to shift out of park the gear shift will not shift. We had to engage the shift override button using a screwdriver. This is dangerous because having the shift override button exposed makes it easy for anyone to shift the car out of park accidentally. We plan to take the vehicle to a dealer on 10/1/2021 to have it inspected. Second issue : low beam headlights are very dim not bright at all making it difficult to see at night without using my high beams which is dangerous to myself and other drivers.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the headlamps were very dim. The contact was unable to see the roadway at night. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that both headlamp assemblies needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 72,000.

2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO NHSTA SAFETY RECALL 20V-315. THE CONSUMER STATED THE PARTS NECESSARY FOR THE RECALL WERE UNAVAILABLE.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated the driver’s side frontal air bag and the passenger’s side frontal air bag sensors were replaced under an unknown recall; however, the air bag sensor warning lights had been illuminating while starting the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who informed the contact that he would be responsible for the cost of repair because the VIN was not included in a recall related to the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but did not provide any assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 10,984.

When trying to shift out of park the gear shift will not shift. We have had to engage the shift override button using a screw driver. From what we have researched online it has happened to many people with a 2014 Nissan Altima. This is dangerous because having the shift override button exposed makes it easy for anyone to shift the car out of park accidentally and without mashing the break to do so. We have had this inspected by a mechanic and it was going to cost over $1000 because we would have to have the entire shift assembly replaced rather than just the part affected by this issue.

Headlights are extremely Dull, making night time driving dangerous. Headlight projector reflector is defective in all 2013 Hologen Bulb headlight assembly's. Driving at night or on wet roads, vision is extremely impaired, a danger to driver and pedestrians. I have contacted the Dealership, and they have no knowledge of any recalls in progress.

Steering it’s heavy A/C stop working it self Airbag check light on dashboard

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.

There is a delay in acceleration. It won't accelerate whenever I want it too. Sometimes it won't do it even if I press the pedal all the way to the floor. When it engages the accelerator it would do it at a strong force. When the problem happens I would have to constantly press and depress the pedal so it won't engage with a strong force. It happens usually that I have noticed when at a stop position ready to start to move.

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.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving at night, the headlights failed to adequately illuminate the roadway. The contact used the hi-beam headlights to properly see the roadway ahead of the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 211,000.

While driving on the highway with my family (at the speed limit) we heard a noise and I lost control of the steering. There was no pre-warning. It felt like I was hydro-planing. We were in the center lane. Luckily, no cars were next to me. Definitely would have caused a collision. I assumed we had a flat tire. I was able to ease the car to the shoulder. All tires were OK. Car was towed to our regular mechanic. They determined a rear control arm had broken. It had rusted through. The other rear, and both front arms were in bad shape as well. They called local Nissan dealership to get the replacement part. They were then informed there was a manufacturer replacement warranty on the rear arms. (Why Not the Front?) Car was towed to dealer and they replaced both rear arms. I had never heard of this problem before. I had received no notice from Nissan of America. I had received notice of the hood latch recall, so I know they had my contact info. The car had been at two different dealerships in the past. Neither had ever warned me of the possible danger. We had to pay $47.48 for a replacement Rear Sway Bar Link that they had to cut to get to the control arm. Now we need to pay for an identical replacement on the front arms, which is not covered by Nissan. Nissan took no responsibility for what could have been a deadly accident. They offered no formal apology or compensation. They could not explain why this isnt a full recall. They could not explain why the dealers had not informed my of the issue prior.

LEFT REAR CONTROL ARM BROKE WHILE DRIVING. HIGH SAFETY RISK. REAR WHEEL ASSEMBLY IS ONLY ATTACHED BY SHOCK ABSORBER. REAR SUSPENSION COMPONENTS SHOW EXCESSIVE RUST. VEHICLE IS SCHEDULED FOR SERVICE AT NISSAN DEALER LATER THIS WEEK.

The headlights are dangerously dim, don't shine light more than a few feet ahead of the car. Apparently this is the cause: the reflective material in the light assembly has burned off from the heat of the bulbs.

On Sunday August 29th 2021 my hood came up while I was driving and broke the front window glass and damaged both sides of the side hood due to the latch not being secured and lose and not being applied the right way.

2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO NHTSA AIR BAG SAFETY RECALL. THE CONSUMER STATED THE BACKSEAT AIRBAG FAILED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima.

The contact indicated that the vehicle had experienced the failure listed in the recall. The failure mileage was 100,000.

The low beam headlights provide extremely low visibility at night. It's like driving with a flashlight to light the road. The problem has progressively gotten worse over the past several years. My 25 year old son drove my car at night and told me he doesn't know how I can even see to drive at night. Last evening I had problems even seeing the road driving in an area where I was not used to driving. This is a huge safety hazard. Replacing the bulbs has not made any difference. I have resulted to having to use my high beams when driving at night which is also a hazard for other drivers on the road. There are no warnings.The lights function they are just extremely dim.

Taken car in for State Inspection after a couple of days Air Bag light is continuing on. Had it checked out and came back on. Taken it to a Nissan Dealership said found Codes B0001 and B0002 B00A0 B0202 Stored in Air Bag System wanted to Replace Clock Spring/Spiral Cable Assembly said Found Internal Malfunction. Car only had 86,000 miles.. Replacement cost on me.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case. The approximate failure mileage was 74,300.

Even though I've just replaced my headlight bulbs with brand new ones it is impossible to drive the car at night! If I drive with high beams on you can see but obviously you blind everyone else. I can no longer drive it to work at night. It is unsafe!!!!!!! It's seriously like trying to drive with a super dim flashlight. This problem started a few years ago and has slowly gotten to this point. You cannot see pedestrians even on the side of the road. Very very unsafe and Nissan should fix whatever the problem is free of charge. I'm the sole owner of this car since it was new. The headlight lenses are not yellowed or worn. I've nearly hit persons walking across the street because I can't see them. I'm 49 years old and have good eyesight.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the brake pedal went to the floorboard when depressed and failed to stop the vehicle in a timely manner.

my car over heats passanger door wont open from the inside its a latch issue ive told the dealer ship in mansfield and they done nothing about it front suspenction has issues still dealer does nothing about it every since they did the recall update with programing my car its like my tranny slips and jerks

The rear control suspension arm broke causing my car to rock back and forth as if the wheels feel off, prior to that the car was in reverse backing out of,parking spot and very large boom or breaking noise happened

Low beams dim. Reflective material in headlight assembly delaminated. Common issue. Tried to remedy by installing LED bulb, no improvement. Dangerous for night driving.

Experience delay acceleration on Interstate 15. The vehicle will not speed up from about 55MPH when pedal was full depress.

Headlights are very dim even after replacing bulbs with led bulbs.

NHTSA-16V-244 Nissan refuses to fix this issue. My air bag light is off and will not go on if someone is sitting in the passenger seat. I need your assistance with Nissan.

CVT Transmission failed when driving on interstate. The car lost power, jerked and stopped. I have a special needs child (3 year old) in the car during the incident and it almost put both of our lives in danger. We followed all the manufacturer's maintenance recommendations for the engine and transmission and changing the fluid and filters at the proper recommended mileage and time. All services including a transmission fluid (last one on Dec 2020) were done at the dealership. THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING SIGNS. THERE ARE NO DIAGNOSTIC CODES ALSO WHEN TESTED AT THE DELERSHIP. NO WARNING SIGNS ALSO. THIS IS THE SCARY PART OF THE PROBLEM. It just broke down all at once in the middle of interstate. When towed to the dealership, they said, it would cost about $4500 to replace transmission. My car has only 75k miles on it and Nissan extended transmission warranty up to 85k miles. Dealer refused to repair/replace the transmission indicating Nissan had already settled a law suite which covers only up to 7 years or 85k miles whichever occurs first. Since I used it for 9 years, they refused saying law suites are settled. We understand all cars have repairs, but not $4500 kind. When approached Nissan Consumer affairs, they mentioned they are not going to help and gave me an address if I would like to approach an Attorney. It's clear on the call with Nissan that Customers are not important. They know that their CVT transmissions are faulty. I'm sure they have an army to fight their faulty transmissions. But for an average customer with very limited resources, this is INJUSTICE. They know, we cant fight and few complaints will not hurt their sales. There are many reported customer issues related to CVT transmission. Please do something about negligence of Nissan installing faulty transmissions and gladly selling remanufactured transmissions at $4500. This is INJUSTICE to an average customer. Hope this complaint helps some current and future customers.

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.

The OCS System in this vehicle has been faulty and on recall several times. Nissan refuses to take accountability. Whenever we take the car to the dealership all they do is clear the code out of the system but they are refusing to repair the occupant safety sensor. This sensor defect can cause the airbags to not deploy in the case of an accident which is not only dangerous to the driver but to others on the road as well, it is potentially deadly. There are several people with the same complaint and Nissan is insisting that consumers need to pay out of pocket to fix the problem although they know their recalls have not been sufficient to remedy the issue. At this point, there needs to be some accountability and reassurance that drivers and their safety mean more than a company's bottom line. This is a potentially deadly hazard that they should be responsible for repairing. The AIRBAG OCS light continues to stay on the dashboard, and the passenger occupant light does not adequately work. There are others online complaining of the exact same issue.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was serviced by the dealer in 2016, for a recall repair for the mass airflow sensor however, the failure recurred. The contact had her nephew replace the mass airflow sensor on three separate occasions. The mass airflow sensor was also replaced once by an independent mechanic. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that recall repair was only performed one time free of charge. The failure mileage was 108,000.

I was backing out of a parking spot and the rear control arm on the drivers side snapped leaving the vehicle inoperable due to safety concerns. I contacted the dealership to order the part for repair and was informed there was a service bulletin for this repair that I was not made aware of.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while at a stop sign, the vehicle began to hesitate and jerk upon the depression of the accelerator pedal without warning. The contact also stated that an abnormal whining sound would emit from the vehicle. The contact stated that the failure persisted until she started driving above 40 MPH. The contact called an independent mechanic who informed her that the failure appeared to be related to the transmission. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed her that there were no recalls on the vehicle. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

My Occupant Classification System is not functioning correctly. There is a voluntary campaign related to this issue (Campaign ID: PC214, NHTSA# 13V-069) that covers 2013 Nissan Altima but for some reason my VIN is not covered under this. However the recall campaign is for the exact problem I am having. I want my VIN to be included in this campaign.

I was driving in the highway with my 1year and 3 month old children and the rear control arm gave out causing my to swerve almost loosing control.

Headlight assemblies have developed film on inside surfaces, causing the headlights on low beam to be extremely dim, significantly reducing normal night vision to a dangerously low level. Low beam light output is less than that of the fog lights!! Only driving with high beams resolves the issue. Will not drive the vehicle at night! Have discussed with dealership and was told it is a KNOWN problem on 2013-2016 Altima and Maxima vehicles. That was within the past six months. Was told that only resolution would be to replace the headlight assemblies at an estimated cost of at least $450/headlight. Recently spoke to Dealership manager regarding the issue. Available for inspection. Not inspected by manufacturer / police / insurance reps. No warning lamps, messages, etc. First appeared within the past year. Case number 44352662 issued today @ ~ 12 noon. Awaiting response back from Nissan Customer Affairs supervisor, but not expecting call back until tomorrow.

According to documents that Nissan has filed with the NHTSA, there are several factors that owners should consider related to the recall. Firstly, if the ODS system malfunctions, the passenger airbag will permanently suppress regardless of the occupant’s weight. If the system does malfunction, the (red) supplemental airbag warning light (SRS Light) will illuminate to alert the driver of the problem. Additionally, the (amber) front passenger airbag status light will illuminate to alert the front seat passenger. In December 2012, Nissan first became aware of the airbag defect due to an increasing amount of warranty claims regarding the SRS Light and/or the passenger airbag status light on 2013 Nissan Altima models. The automaker eventually linked the ODS system problem to a supplier (Tier 2 to Panasonic) problem. Evidently, its supplier had made changes to the sensor, which affected its performance. On February 21, Nissan determined that a recall was necessary after a two-month probe. Our vehicle was serviced in 2015 for this recall. Subsequently, we have had problems with the passenger airbag continuing to stay on. When trying to get an inspection it always has trouble because of this light. We have been told by Nissan it is not "their problem" however there are thousands of similar complaints. Nissan is refusing to remedy the situation that is a danger to vehicle owners and others on the road. Nissan needs to be held accountable for this known defect and error that can be a grave danger to human life. Subsequently, they need to issue a recall to further remedy the situation or allow vehicle owners the ability to have it fixed at no cost. This is a known error, this is not fair to consumer safety nor is it fair that a big corporation can get away with potentially harming others due to their negligence in repair.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that there was almost no visibility when the headlights were turned on at night since the headlight reflectors were dim. The headlights failure almost caused a collision on several separate occasions. The dealer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that he needed to pay for the diagnosis and repair. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 94,867.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving out of the driveway, she heard an abnormal sound coming from underneath the vehicle. The contact stated upon checking the vehicle, she noticed that the driver’s side rear wheel was turned inward and that the control arm had detached from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the control arm was fractured, and the failure was related to an unknown recall. The dealer was made aware of the failure and informed that the vehicle could not be repaired under the unknown recall as the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was not included in the recall due to the manufactured date of the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 92,000.

The original transmission on this car failed and I had it replaced at a Nissan Dealership. In less than two years, the new transmission also failed. I was driving on the highway and transmission gave up and the vehicle would not accelerate putting my Life and others' life in danger/unsafe. I contacted Nissan consumer/customer service and the case manager was not helpful and literally, stonewalled my concerns. Gross negligence by Nissan about the vehicle owners and their safety. The Nissan Altima cars that were manufactured between 2013-2015 are pure LEMONS.

I’ve had numerous vehicles of varying models and types. My vehicle only has 115k miles and the front control arms are gone. Live near beaches so due to salt and corrosion etc. This should not happen

Car stalled on highway in 1st lane. Car jerking, stalling, not starting. Found recall on cvt transmissions on car. Nissan consumer affairs refuse to honor recall. States recall closed. Car not drivable. Being fixed at Firestone repair. Begged Nissan consumer affairs because of my safety to please fix. Spoke with 2 managers who would not honor closed past campaign!!! Told them I am a 60 yr old woman now to scarred to drive car. Had no choice but to have it fixed which I cannot afford.

Headlights on the dim projector failed internally where you can't see at night on dim setting. Several forums online with same complaint.

Rear right control arm broke away from the frame. My mechanic said this was due to corrosion due to salt. The Nissan dealer said a selective “ service campaign was conducted but was only for certain VIN’s in certain states. I live in one of those states but was told corrective action had to do with the original delivery destination for the car but not the final delivery location ( Medina, OH). I’ve read the same issues have occurred over and over but Nissan refuses to acknowledge it is widespread. The say it has only affected .003 % of cars. This number is low because most people don’t know they have an issue until it’s too late. At a minimum an inspection needs to be performed on all 2013 Altima’s to determine if there is an issue.

Both headlight low beams are dangerously dim even after replacing the bulbs. Its not possible to see at night while driving unless using high beams to see. Took the vehicle to the dealership afterwards and it was determined the materials in the headlight assembly have deteriorated in both assemblies.

Supplemental air bag warning light stays on. Dealer had reset it once but it came back on. According to the manual, "If this light is on, it could mean that the front air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag systems and/or pretensioner systems will not operate in an accident."

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V315000 (Latches/Locks/Linkages) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The dealer had been notified of the recall however, the contact was informed repeatedly that parts were not yet available. The manufacturer had not been notified of the issue. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

Headlights are very dim at night on low beam, I have to drive with my high beams because I can't see the road or signs or cars , I have almost gotten into accidents because of this, I have taken it to the dealer and they will not replace them , I contacted Nissan North America Consumer Affairs and they won't replace them they say that I'm outside my manufacturers warranty I told them that I understand that but the problem with the headlights is a manufacturers defect , I took the car to a mechanic and he told me to look on YouTube that there are other Nissan Altima owners with the same problem, so I looked it up and he was correct there are videos of mechanics that found the reason the lights are so dim , you basically have to break the housing of the light to see the problem and it is a manufacturers defect so they should be responsible for that the proof is there in the videos I should not have to buy two new headlights because the problem is there's . This has been going on for some years and I was going to give up but I wanted to find out way at night I can't see driving it is frustrating I'm 61 years old and this is not the only car I've owned. This has been going on since 2019

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.

The contact owns a 2013 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving at 45 mph, approaching a stop light the vehicle began to jerk back and forth, the contact was able to stop the vehicle and turn the steering wheel to the right side of a merging lane to avoid oncoming traffic. The contact had the vehicle towed to a local dealer who inspected the vehicle and diagnosed the failure with the transmission and it would need to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately mileage 153,000.

1. The vehicle component that failed was the transmission. The manner in which it failed was total, rendering the vehicle unable to move under its own power. This failure occurred while moving in traffic on a heavily trafficked divided highway. 2. The driver and other occupant of the vehicle were put at great personal risk by being in a disabled vehicle amidst surrounding traffic moving at 40-60 MPH. Occupants of an additional vehicle that stopped behind the disabled vehicle were also put at great personal risk for the same reason. Law enforcement officers who arrived to assist were required to block multiple lanes of oncoming traffic with their duty vehicles. These law enforcement officers were further put at risk by having to push the disabled vehicle 100+ yards through traffic at the aforementioned speeds before it could be safely moved off the roadway. Passing motorists were at great risk of colliding with the disabled vehicle throughout the incident. The total duration of the disabled vehicle being stuck in traffic as described was in excess of 15 minutes. Due to luck and the actions of law enforcement officers, no injuries or fatalities resulted. 3. This mechanical failure has been diagnosed by both independent and manufacturer certified dealer repair shops. 4.T he vehicle has been inspected by the manufacturers authorized service representative, the dealer. Law enforcement officers assisted in recovering the vehicle and confirmed it was disabled. Insurance representatives have not yet inspected the vehicle. 5. There were no warnings or any other sort of indication from the vehicle prior to complete and total failure of the transmission. The vehicle has been properly maintained per manufacturer specifications and is under the mileage at which any reasonable motorist would expect a total failure of this component. 6. After being notified of the above, manufacturer refuses to repair vehicle with a safe transmission.

Noticed that my 2013 Nissan Altima headlights are very dim. Researched on the internet and quickly realized this is an issue with many 2013-2018 Altimas and that the reflective material in the assembly breaks down over time. This is a serious safety issue and Nissan does not have a recall and they definitely should be forced to recall cars with this issue before it's too late. Very serious safety issue in my opinion.

my 2013 Nissan Altima 4 door sedan hood is flapping on my car. If I go a certain speed limit the windshield will come up and hit my front window. Very unsafe and very dangerous for me and my 1 year old daughter. Thanks.

Both the driver and passenger side seat sensors do not detect when a person is in the seat, causing the air bags to remain off when vehicle is occupied. This is a common issue with the 2013 Altima, but Nissan has not issued a recall to have the seat sensors repaired.

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.

My supplemental airbag light is on and I have not been in accident. I know that there was recall for passer side airbag light so I am wondering if there is something going on with driver side air bag.

While I was driving and had stopped at a red light. When the light turned green the vehicle wouldn’t move and instead shut down. It would power normally again, but when the car is shifted into drive, the car shuts down again. This is incredibly dangerous as my car was stopped in the middle of the road during rush hour. I was lucky to not have been hit. There were no warning signs. It happened very suddenly. I took my car to the dealership and they said my car needs a transmission replacement (car is a 2013 and 61k miles). I found out that there was a class action lawsuit that took place in 2020 for the very problem in the make, year and model of my car (CVTs in many 2013-2016 models). Nissan never recalled the transmissions but instead settled for an extended warranty which ended May 2020 for me. Now it is May 2021 and my transmission needs replacing. This problem is not only a part of the class action lawsuit that is already settled, but there are countless accounts of this problem still happening to people. Nissan is failing to take accountability for their faulty transmissions, which is a danger to the public. I’m am asking that NHTSA pressures Nissan to recall all CVTs and to reimburse people for their CVT repair costs.

MY HEADLIGHTS HAVE DETERIORATED TO A POINT NOW THAT DRIVING AT NIGHT IS DANGEROUS AS I CANNOT SEE BEYOND MY FOGLIGHTS (FIRST NOTED ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO). I HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERY, LIGHTBULBS AND HAVE CLEANED THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY COVERS. NOTHING IMPROVES VISIBILITY. I SUSPECT THE ASSEMBLIES HAVE TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE COATING IN THE REFLECTOR HOUSING DETERIORATING DUE TO MANUFACTORING DEFECT AS HAS BEEN MENTIONED BY MANY OTHER ALTIMA OWNERS.

SON WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE LOWER LINK ARM BROKE. THERE IS A RECALL ON THOSE IN BOTH CANADA AND US BUT THE DEALERSHIP, DARLINGS, WON'T FIX IT. MY SON COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED HAD HE BEEN DRIVING AT 60 MPH. NISSAN ISN'T STANDING BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT AND FIXING A MAJOR SAFETY DEFECT.

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.

2013 NISSAN ALTIMA JUST WENT DEAD WHILE DRIVING ON STREET. GOT IT TOWED TO GARAGE, GARAGE SAID CVT DEAD, TRANSMISSION NEEDS REPLACEMENT, $$$$$, VERY UNHAPPY

MY SON WAS DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AND MADE A TURN ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE CONTROL ARM BROKE IN HALF. THE CAR WAS ALL OVER THE ROAD AND HE WAS ABLE TO MAKE A STOP ON THE SIDE. LUCKILY, HE DID NOT PASS A ONCOMING VEHICLE AT THE SAME TIME. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO EDMUNDS NISSAN IN COUNCIL BLUFFS, IA. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN SAID THAT I NEED A NEW CONTROL ARM AND THAT THE COST WAS APPROXIMATELY $1200. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND SAW SOME POSTS THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE FROM 2013 TO 2018 MODELS. I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER ADVOCACY AND THE REP STATED THAT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ORDERED. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING THAT A PROBLEM HAS BEEN MADE AWARE AND THAT A MANUFACTURER WILL NOT GO TO THE NEXT STEPS TO FIX IT. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY SERIOUS IF NOT DEADLY ACCIDENT IF MY SON WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN THE CAR UNDER CONTROL. NISSAN DID ASSIGN A CASE NUMBER 43804399.

THE DIM HEADLAMPS OF MY 2013 ALTIMA HAVE PROGRESSIVELY DIMMED TO AN UNSAFE LEVEL THAT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE DRIVING PATH AND SURROUNDING AREA. IN MY MANY YEARS OF DRIVING, THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST LIGHTING PROJECTED BY ANY OF MY VEHICLES. THE LIGHTING WAS GREAT WHEN PURCHASED USED IN 2016 BUT OVERTIME IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND ESPECIALLY DURING RAIN STORM EXCEPT WHEN LIGHTNING LIGHTS THE SKY.. SAFETY RECALL IS JUSTLY NEEDED, ARE WE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DIE FOR THIS TO HAPPEN?

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE HORRIBLE! I CAN'T SEE WITH THE LOW BEAMS AT ALL AND I NEED TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS AT ALL TIMES IN THE DARK. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE!!! I'M VERY SHOCKED THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ON THESE LIGHTS! I LOVE MY CAR, HOWEVER I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN IF THEY DON'T FIX THIS PROBLEM!

THE TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED PREMATURELY. THE CAR HAS STALLED CREATING A DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE VEHICLE WILL VIBRATE AND PULLS ODDLY AT LOW SPEEDS. A BURNING SMELL HAS NOW DEVELOPED AND I CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS. THERE ARE MANY MANY OTHER NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THE CVT TRANSMISSION ON MY CAR.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM!! I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON. ONCOMING TRAFFIC NEVER FLASHES THEIR LIGHTS AT ME, SO THE HIGH BEAM LIGHTS MUST BE DIM, ALSO. THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM, THAT CARS BEHIND ME AT NIGHT, CAST A SHADOW IN FRONT OF MY CAR. MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS DON'T EVEN PUT OUT ENOUGH LIGHT TO PREVENT A SHADOW BEING FORMED IN FRONT OF MY CAR!!

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM, TOTALLY INEFFECTIVE FOR NIGHT DRIVING AND DANGEROUS. ON A DARK OR SEMI DARK ROAD THERE IS ALMOST NO ROAD VISIBILITY.

REAR CONTROL ARMS BOTH HAVE BROKEN. THERE IS A SERVICE CAMPAIGN BULLETING FOR THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL, HOWEVER THE SPECIFIC VIN DOES NOT APPLY ACCORDING TO NISSAN. A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL AND NISSAN WILL NOT FIX THE VEHICLE UNDER THE CAMPAIGN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO STATE LINE NISSAN (10401 MADISON AVE, KANSAS CITY, MO 64114) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT NOTHING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE CONTACT RELATED THE FAILURE TO AN UNKNOWN RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 133,000. *DT

I OWN A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH 108,000 MILES. I AM THE FIRST AND ONLY OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE. IT WAS PURCHASED IN MISSOURI, HOWEVER, I HAVE LIVED AND DRIVEN THE VEHICLE IN IOWA FOR THE ENTIRE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. ON MARCH 28, 2021 THE REAR LOWER LINK CORRODED AND BROKE WHILE DRIVING 55MPH ON HWY 6 IN EASTERN IOWA. NISSAN HAS A VOLUNTARY RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM IN 22 STATES INCLUDING IOWA, YET THEY REFUSE TO HONOR THIS RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE CLAIMING THAT NHTSA SETS THE PARAMETERS AND SELECTS THE VIN NUMBERS FOR THE RECALL. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN OF NORTH AMERICA AND NHTSA SEVERAL TIMES AND CANNOT GET AN ANSWER AS TO WHY THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL.

REAR, LOWER CONTROL ARM THAT CONNECTS REAR WHEEL TO VEHICLE BROKE WHILE DRIVING, NEARLY CAUSING A CRASH. AND NISSAN IS REFUSING TO COVER THE EXPENSE OF THE REPAIR EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUE! (SEE NISSAN'S SERVICE BULLETIN P9324). NISSAN NEED'S TO BE HELP ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS DEFECTIVE PART. COMPLETE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IS VERY LIKELY, ESPECIALLY AT HIGH SPEEDS.

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR THE ACCELERATION IS HESITANT. WHEN SITTING AT A RED LIGHT AND GO TO ACCELERATE THERE IS A DELAY IN WHICH THE CAR WON'T MOVE. WHEN DRIVING THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SEEM TO WANT TO SHIFT. THIS HAPPENS BOTH ON A STREET AND HIGHWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO.

THE SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND WILL NOT TURN OFF. THE LIGHT HAS BEEN CLEARED BY A MECHANIC, HOWEVER, IT CAME BACK ON AND STAYS ON.

THE REAR LOWER SUSPENSION LINK BROKE WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH ON A WELL MAINTAINED HIGHWAY CAUSING A LOSS OF CONTROL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V315000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT CALLED AUTONATION TOYOTA TEMPE (7970 S. AUTOPLEX LOOP, TEMPE, AZ 85284, (480) 420-3425) WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

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.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE PARALLEL PARKING, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMALLY LOUD SOUND AND NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE REAR TIRE WAS TILTED INWARD. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH THE CONTROL ARM NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 95,000.

UNABLE TO SHIFT INTO GEAR WHEN ENGAGING FOOT BRAKE WHEN STARTING VEHICLE. SHIFT IS STUCK IN PARK. HAVE TO USE TOOL IN SHIFT LOCK RELEASE TO MOVE BETWEEN GEARS TO DRIVE CAR. I WAS DRIVING AND WAS STOPPED AT A RAILWAY CROSSING. PUT CAR IN PARK. ONCE TRAIN HAD PASSED I TRIED TO PUT CAR IN DRIVE POSITION AND WAS UNABLE TO DO SO. AFTER READING MANUAL I DISCOVERED THAT IF A FAULT OCCURS YOU MUST USE A TOOL ON THE SHIFT LOCK BUTTON RELEASE TO MOVE VEHICLE. VERY DANGEROUS.

DEFECTIVE CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION

HEADLIGHT VISIBILITY IS AWFUL. I KEEP TAKING IT TO NISSAN TO HAVE IT CHECKED AND THEY TELL ME THEY DO NOT SEE ANYTHING WRONG. MY BIGGEST ISSUE IS I AM AFRAID I WILL HAVE A CAR ACCIDENT AT NIGHT CAUSE MY LIGHTS AS SO DIM IT LOOK LIKE I AM DRIVING WITH MY PARK LIGHTS ON.

CAR STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, BEGAN JERKING AND A SHAKING RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING. THESE PROBLEMS STARTED AROUND 70,000 MILES. RECENTLY MY CAR STARTED JERKING WHILE TRYING TO DRIVE OUT OF A SUBDIVISION THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND ALSO THE TRACTION LIGHT. I COULDN'T ACCELERATE SO I SAFELY PULLED TO SIDE OF ROAD BECAUSE IT FELT LIKE I LOST POWER. I WAS ABLE TO TAKE IT TO AUTOZONE NEARBY WHERE THE SCANNER READ A CODE FOR A STUCK SOLENOID. AFTER TAKING IT TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO WORK ON RECALLS RELATED TO MY VEHICLE (INCLUDING A CVT REPROGRAMMING),THEY CALLED ME AND TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION COMPLETELY WENT OUT WHEN MECHANIC TRIED PULLING IT INTO SHOP. NOW I'M STUCK WITH A CAR I CAN'T DRIVE AND CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX. THEY QUOTED ME $4200 TO REPLACE A TRANSMISSION THAT SEEMS TO BE FAULTY IN THE FIRST PLACE. YOUR CUSTOMERS NEED TO BE COMPENSATED FOR THIS. AN EXTENDED WARRANTY SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THE ONLY SOLUTION. I'LL NEVER BUY A NISSAN AGAIN AND WILL BE AVOIDING CVT TRANSMISSIONS IF POSSIBLE.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE DIMMED PROGRESSIVELY OVER TIME TO THE POINT THAT IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT & HAVE TO END UP USING HIGH BEAMS TO GET SOME VISIBILITY

WHEN PUSHING THE GAS ON THE HIGHWAY OR THE STREETS IT FEELS LIKE THE POWER OF THE CAR IS HOLDING BACK. FEELS LIKE THE GEARS ARE MESSING UP. AND THERE'S PROBLEM WITH CATALYST CONVERTER. IT'S ALWAYS SHOWING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT EVEN AFTER I HAVE TRIED OTHER SOLUTIONS ON FIXING THAT AND THE GAS ODOMETER IS NOT READING THE GAS LEVELS RIGHT EITHER. PLUS THE PASSENGER SEAT BUCKLE IS STUCK AND DOESN'T LATCH TO THE SEAT BELT FOR A HOLD FROM A CAR ACCIDENT. LIKE YOU HAVE TO REALLY PUSH HARD FOR THE SEAT BELT TO HOLD ON.

AFTER GETTING A WHEEL ALIGNMENT I WAS TOLD THEY (AMERICAS TIRES) COULDNT GET THE SPECS SPOT ON IN THE REAR DUE TO TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES THEY WERE HAVING WITH THEIR SYSTEM I CONTINUED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AS I NORMALLY DO. AFTER A COUPLE WEEKS I HAD NOTICE MY REAR TIRE TREAD WAS SIGNIFICANTLY DEPLETING THUS MAKING ME BUY NEW TIRES AGAIN FOR THE 3RD TIME. I WENT BACK TO AMERICAS TIRES FOR ANOTHER ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENT AND WITH THEIR SYSTEM UP AND RUNNING PROPERLY I WAS TOLD THAT MY REAR CONTROL ARM WAS GOING TO NEED TO BE REPLACED. THIS BEING ONLY A MONTH SFTER I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY HAD SUPPOSEDLY FIXED A RECALL DEALING WITH REAR SUSPENSION. TO THIS DAY MY CAR MAKES A SKIDDING/SCREECHING SOUND WHEN IM ON THE FREEWAY AND CAUSES IT TO EAT UP MY TIRES YET AGAIN, IVE ALREADY HAD A BLOWOUT HAPPEN AS WELL ON THE RIGHT REAR SIDE WHERE I WAS TOLD THE CONTROL ARM NEEDED TO BE CHANGED AND I CAN FEEL MY CAR PULL SIDE TO SIDE WHEN REACHING FREEWAY SPEED LIMITS AND FEELS VERY UNSAFE.

I HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION IN MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THESE TRANSMISSIONS ARE DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS AS CAN BE SEEN BY THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS AND CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS. THE NHTSA SHOULD HOLD NISSAN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF THE REPLACEMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR CONTROL ARM FRACTURED AFTER DRIVING OVER A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALER MIKE BARNEY NISSAN LOCATED AT 3676 SHERIDAN DR, AMHERST, NY 14226 WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO CORROSION AND RUSTING. THE CONTROL ARM WAS REPLACED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,000.*DT*JB

ON APRIL 2018, I VISIT THE NISSAN DEL OESTE AT AGUADILLA PR TO REPORT NOISE IN THE POWER STEERING NOISE, NO ACTION WAS TAKEN, THEY JUST SAID THAT WAS NORMAL WITH ALL NISSAN POWER STEERING PUMP. FEBRUARY 25, 2021 I CONTACT NISSAN DEL OESTE AT AGUADILLA PR AND NOTIFY ABOUT THE ISSUE OF THE POWER STEERING NOISE AND TRANSMISSION NOISE. APPOINTMENT FOR MARCH 2 2021 WAS SET AND I NOTIFY THEM WITH PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOT ANY RECALL FOR POWER STEERING PUMP AND CVT TRANSMISSION. I DID MENTION THE RECALLS FOR 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA IAW NHTSA WITH REF.: ST12-009B, REF:NTBB-0176 ANDTSB NTB12-081. THEY INFORM AT THE VOUCHER THE MILEAGE IN AND OUT, THEY DID NOT TOOK THE CAR FOR A RUN OF 6 MILES LIKE IT SAYS ON VOUCHER 48133S. THE MAIN CONCERN IS THAT THE CAR COULD HAVE ANY SITUATION WITH ONE OF THOSE PARTS JUST MENTIONED DURING A DRIVE AND CAUSE ANY ACCIDENT WITH OUT HAVING THE CONTROL. MY QUESTION IS, IF THERE IS A MALFUNCTION FOR MY 2013 ALTIMA THAT IS ALREADY KNOWLEDGE BY NISSAN MOTOR COMP. AND PROVIDE RECALLS WHY MY HAVE TO BE EXCLUDE? THE POWER STEERING NOISE IS AT EVERY MOMENT WHEN ON AND RUNNING, POWER STEERING FLUID IS GOOD. THE TRANSMMISION IS DURING THE DRIVING WITH SOME NOISE AFTER 20 MILES DRIVE ON HIGHWAY BETWEEN 65 TO 70 MPH AND THEN PRESSING THE BRAKE, THE NOISE FEEL LIKE IT COME FROM THE TRANSMMISION. ANOTHER SITUATION IS OCACCIONALY SOME LOWT OF POWER AND SOME TIMES ACCELERATE. BRAKES PADS ARE GOOD, BRAKE FLUID IS GOOD. MY CAR MPG IS 31.2 AND MILEAGE AT THIS MOMENT IS 76,680.

LOW BEAMS ARE NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO SEE AT NIGHT, I HAVE TO USE HIGH BEAMS TO BE ABLE TO SEE, WHICH IN COMMON SENSE MAKES IT REALLY DANGEROUS FOR ME AS WELL THE OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD BY ME USING THE HIGH BEAMS, I BEEN LOOKING AROUND TO THE PROBLEM, AND THE PROBLEM WITH THE HEADLIGHTS IS WHERE THE LOW BEAM SITS ( THE SOCKET ), OVER TIME IT GETS BURNT AND IT JUST DESTROY THE WHOLE REFLECTION OF THE HALOGEN BULB, I PLACED AN IMAGE SO YOU ALL CAN CHECK IT.

THE LOW-BEAM HEADLAMPS ON THE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA PROVIDE ALMOST NO ILLUMINATION OF THE ROAD AHEAD AT NIGHT. SERIOUSLY, TURNING THEM OFF OR ON, IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE FROM THE DRIVER'S SEAT. I HAD ONE HEADLAMP REPLACED, BUT THAT MADE NO DIFFERENCE. PEOPLE LITERALLY FLASH THEIR HIGH-BEAMS AT US AT NIGHT BECAUSE THEY THINK WE ARE DRIVING WITH OUR HEADLIGHTS OFF. THIS IS NOT A SUBTLE PROBLEM, BUT RATHER AN EXTRAORDINARILY DANGEROUS SAFETY HAZARD. THIS PROBLEM IS WELL KNOWN. SEE FOR EXAMPLE, HTTP://WWW.NISSANPROBLEMS.COM/ALTIMA-PROJECTOR-HEADLIGHTS/ : "THE LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS IN THE 5TH GENERATION ALTIMA ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. THE REFLECTIVE MATERIAL INSIDE THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS CAN WEAR DOWN, DRASTICALLY REDUCING THE BEAM'S POWER. IN DECEMBER OF 2018 THIS PROBLEM RANKED 10TH IN CARCOMPLAINTS.COM TOP PROBLEM TRENDS LIST." YET NISSAN HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT THIS DREADFUL SAFETY HAZARD, AS OF MARCH 2021. (JUST CHECKED NISSAN'S VEHICLE RECALL SITE, 3/15/2021). REPORTEDLY, ATTORNEYS CHIMICLES & TIKELLIS ARE INVESTIGATING A POTENTIAL CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST THE AUTOMAKER. THIS WILL NOT BE OF MUCH SOLACE IF MY DAUGHTER HAS A CAR CRASH OR HITS A PEDESTRIAN BECAUSE SHE CAN'T SEE AHEAD OF HER WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE--NOW!

I PURCHASE MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA 1 MONTH AGO WELL WHEN I WENT TO GET IN THE CAR AND DRIVE THE CAR WOULD NOT GO IN DRIVE OR REVERSE WHEN I HIT THE GAS IT DID NOTHING HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP WHERE THEY TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION WAS BAD THE CVT TRANSMISSION HAD WENT OUT AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS A LOT OF RECALLS ON 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA TRANSMISSIONS THE WARRANTY WILL COVER UP TO 100,000 MILES I ONLY HAVE 100000 MILES ON NET AT THE MOMENT WHEN IT WENT OUT THE SHOP IS TRYING TO CHARGE ME $3,500 TO FIX IT WELL ACTUALLY THEY WANTED $4,100 OUT THE DOOR BUT I EXPLAINED TO THEM I ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 1 MINUTE AND JUST PAID $4,000 CASH TO PURCHASE THE CAR THEY FELT BAD AND SAID THAT THEY WOULD DO THE JOB FOR 3500 SINCE IT'S A RECALL FOR THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW DO I SUBMIT A CLAIM SO I CAN GET HELP IN TRYING TO FIX THIS CAR I DON'T HAVE $3,500 TO GIVE THESE PEOPLE WHEN I JUST SPENT $4,000 BUYING THE CAR CAN I GET SOME HELP PLEASE I WAS DRIVING ON 95 ALL OF A SUDDEN THE SPEED BROKE ALL THE WAY DOWN TO 20 MILES PER HOUR I PROCEEDED TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD CUT THE CAR OFF CRANK IT BACK UP IT WILL NOT GO AND DRIVE OR REVERSE I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE SHOP AND THAT'S WHEN I FOUND OUT THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION WAS BAD ALSO THE CONVERTER BUT MOSTLY THE CVT TRANSMISSION

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT IS VERY LOW AND UNABLE TO SEE . CHANGED MANY BULBS AND STILL SAME .

THE LOW BEAMS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE EXTREMELY UNSAFE. IF THERE WAS TO BE A CHILD OR AN ANIMAL DARTING IN FRONT OF ME, THEY WOULD BE DONE. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I REPLACED BULBS BUT IT DIDNT MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

MY LOW BEAMS ON MY HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY LOW AT NIGHT I CAN BARELY SEE A FOOT AHEAD WHETHER DRIVING ARE PARKED.

THE CAR STARTS JERKING WHEN GETTING UP TO SPEED IF YOU ACCELERATE SLOWLY.

WHEN I GET TO 60 MPH OR ABOVE I GET A TERRIBLE SHAKING IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND FEELS LIKE THE WHEEL ARE SHAKING. DOES NOT FEEL SAFE.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA ON I95 AT 60 MPH IN CONNECTICUT THE RIGHT LOWER REAR CONTROL ARM BROKE AND SENT THE CAR SWERVING TO THE RIGHT. THERE WAS A LOT OF CORROSION ON THE CONTROL ARM. THE OTHER CONTROL ARM WAS CRACKED AND DAMAGED THE FRAME. OVERALL COST TO REPAIR INCLUDING NEW TIRE AND ALIGNMENT OVER $2,000.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE DECREASED IN BRIGHTNESS AFTER APPROX CAR BEING 4-5 YEARS OLD & TODAY ARE PRACTICALLY NON EXISTENT. DEC 2019 I HAD TO HAVE HEADLIGHTS REPLACED WITH A HALOGEN SET OF LIGHTS BECAUSE NEW HEADLIGHT BULB DID NOTHING TO INCREASE VISIBILITY AT NIGHT. I'VE HAD TO RUN HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM & FOG LIGHTS FOR A FEW YEARS TO HAVE VERY LOW VISIBILITY. AT THIS TIME THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VIRTUALLY NON EXISTENT EXCEPT WHEN RUNNING ON HIGH BEAMS WHICH IS CAUSING A GREAT DANGER TO ME, MY HUSBAND & OTHER DRIVERS ON ROAD. NISSAN HAS STATED THEY'RE INVESTIGATING THE ISSUE WITH THESE HEADLIGHTS & DENIES ANY RESPONSIBILITY DUE TO CAR BEING IN WARRANTY OR RECALL ISSUED.

A FEW MONTHS BACK I TOOK MY CAR IN TO HAVE THE AIRBAG RECALL FIXED. FLASH FORWARD A FEW MONTHS AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON. IF SOMEBODY SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE LIGHT GOES OFF. THE NISSAN DEALER IS SAYING THE OCS SENSOR SOMETIMES GO BAD AND QUOTES $400-$1500 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND IS KEPT CLEAN SO THERE IS NO CHANCE THAT AN ITEM EFFECTED THE OCS SENSOR UNDER THE SEAT WHEN THE SEAT WAS MOVED. BUT THE MORE I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE THE MORE SUSPICIOUS THIS SEEMS. HOW DO SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM...AND HOW MAMY OTHERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM BUT CANT OR DONT KNOW HOW TO REPORT IT.

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE HOOD FLEW UP AND BUSTED THE WINDSHELD.

HAVING ISSUE WITH LOW BEAN LIGHTS. I CAN'T SEE AT NIGHT. THIS PROBLEM IS NOT FIXABLE. THIS WILL BE MY THIRD HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. NISSAN IS NOT TAKING OWNERSHIP AND THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVER AT NIGHT UNLESS I TURN ON MY HIGH BEAMS.

THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE LOWER STABILIZATION BAR BROKE WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT IN NORMAL CONDITIONS AT ABOUT 30 MPH. THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE LOWER STABILIZATION BAR IS CRACKED BUT STILL HOLDING ON. THE CAR IS NO LONGER DRIVABLE DUE TO MANUFACTURE DEFECTS

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD (IN SUBURBS) WHEN I CAME TO A STOP SIGN. I STARTED NOTICING A LITTLE STUTTER WHEN I APPROACHED THE STOP SIGN AND STARTED SLOWING DOWN. THIS IS A CONTINUOUS PROBLEM WHENEVER MY CAR NEEDS TO ACCELERATE AFTER A STOP (BETWEEN 5-40 MPH) OR SLOW DOWN TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I HAVEN'T BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY SINCE I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I AM WORRIED FOR MY SAFETY. I WENT TO A MECHANIC IMMEDIATELY ONCE I NOTICED THE STUTTER AND SMALL JERKS. THE ENGINE LIGHT IS NOT ON SO WHEN I DESCRIBED THIS TO HIM HE SAID HE HAD TO DO AN IN DEPTH READ OF MY TRANSMISSION. HE ENDED UP FINDING A CODE IN MY TRANSMISSION THAT HAD PICKED UP ON THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPING / STUTTERING.

P17F0 IS THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE THAT I RECEIVED AFTER TAKING MY 2013 ALTIMA SV 2.5 TO A MECHANIC DUE TO LOSS OF POWER, HORRIBLE GAS MILAGE AND A HEAVY VIBRATION/RUMBLING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF MY CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS SON WAS STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, HE ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO ALL STAR NISSAN (27700 JUBAN RD, SUITE A, DENHAM SPRING, LA 70726) WHERE THE FAILURE WAS DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY TRANSMISSION THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE RECEIVED AN UNKNOWN MANUFACTURER'S RECALL FOR THE TRANSMISSION AND NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER HOWEVER, THEY OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION WAS PREVIOUSLY REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED A SECOND TIME. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 154,113.

DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY NEW YORK RTE 104 WEST IN WEBSTER NY AT 60MPH. THE HOOD LIFTED AND SLAMMED THE ROOF OF THE CAR. I WAS ABLE TO SEE BETWEEN THE DASH AND JUST UNDER THE HOOD AND WAS ABLE TO SAFELY MOVE OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I WAS ABLE TO RE-LATCH THE HOOD AND RETURN HOME. THE IMAGE ATTACHED IS THE FRAME FROM MY DASHCAM. YOU CAN SEE THE ENTIRE VIDEO HERE. HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/C7ZUW9ZE-Z0

THE LOWER CONTROL ARM SNAPPED AT THE PIVOT POINT NEAR THE FRAME.WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER GETTING OFF THE HIGHWAY TO CHECK TIRE PRESSURE AND SEE IF THERE WAS ANY OBVIOUS PROBLEMS, I WENT FOR A SHORT TEST DRIVE ON A STATE ROUTE. THE TRACTION WARNING LIGHT STAYED ON. I SOPPED TO TURN AROUND AND HEAD BACK TOWARDS THE HIGHWAY AND THE CONTROL ARM BROKE COMPLETELY.

THE DIM LIGHTS ARE SO VERY DIM THAT IT IS A HAZARD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WHILE THE LIGHTS ARE ON DIM. THE BRIGHTS WORKS FINE. IT'S SEEMS THE ACTUAL LIGHT ITSELF WORKS FINE BUT THE SURROUND UNIT/CASING/PART THAT HOUSES THE DIM LIGHT HAS A TENDENCY TO TO WEAR OFF AND NOT REFLECT THE LIGHTS AS IT SHOULD. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS IS THE REASON FOR THE DIM LIGHTING. CHANGING BULB WILL NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE DIM LIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM WHETHER THE CAR IS IN MOTION OR STATIONARY. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT CONTINUES TO GET WORSE. I DID PUT THE INCIDENT DATE AS 02/19/2021 BUT IS BEEN ONGOING AND DETERIORATING. IT MUCH MORE APPARENT ON DARK HIGHWAYS AS OPPOSE TO BRIGHTLY LIT CITY STREETS. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP SAID THE ONLY REMEDY IS TO CHANGE THE ENTIRE HEAD LAMP UNIT FOR AROUND $1000. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS IS AN ISSUES WITH 2013-2015ISH NISSAN ALTIMAS. SINCE THERE ARE SO MANY WITH THIS ISSUE AND IT'S SUCH A HAZARD THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. REPLACING THE ENTIRE HEAD LAMP WITH A HEAD LIGHT WITH THE SAME ISSUES SEEMS TO BE A WASTE OF CONSUMER MONEY. FURTHER, IF NISSAN IMPROVED THE HEAD LAMP, THEN THEY KNOW THERE'S AN ISSUE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND ISSUE A RECALL ON THE DIM LIGHT HAZARD.

REPLACED BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES DUE TO DETERIORATION OF REFLECTORS. COMMON FAILURE ON THIS MODEL. NO NISSAN RECALL. SAFETY ISSUE WITH FAULTY LIGHTS. SINCE REPLACING BOTH ASSEMBLIES, HAVE HAD TO REPLACE A BULB TWICE. GOING TO THE DEALER AGAIN BECAUSE OF LIGHT FAILURE.

I PURCHASED MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA IN 2015. INITIALLY THE HEADLIGHTS WERE FINE AND SEEMED COMPARABLE WITH MY PREVIOUS ALTIMA IT WAS A 2010. OVER THE COURSE OF THE PAST FOUR YEARS THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE DETERIORATED TO THE POINT THAT THEY NO LONGER PROJECT TO THE ROAD. I HAVE REPLACE THE BULBS AND SPENT AN ASTRONOMICAL AMOUNT OF MONEY INVESTING IN HIGH INTENSITY BULBS, WITH NO CHANGE. I WOULD BE BETTER OFF TAPING FLASHLIGHTS TO THE FRONT OF MY CAR, THIS VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN THE EVENING. I SEE THAT NISSAN HAS NOT RECOGNIZED THIS AS A RECALL HOWEVER THERE ARE HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AFTER 4 PM UNTIL AT LEAST 7 AM.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS VERY DIM. CHANGED OUT HALOGEN BULBS TO LED BULBS AND THERE WAS NO DIFFERENCE. INTERNET SEARCH RESULTS ARE THE REFLECTIVE MASTERIAL IN THE PROJECTORS IS WORN OFF. COME TO FIND OUT FROM MANY ONLINE FORUMS THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE. NISSAN SHOULD BE REPLACING THESE FOR THE SAFETY OF THERE CUSTOMERS!!

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT OUTPUT IS SO TERRIBLE I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS AT DUSK OR NIGHT IN ORDER TO SEE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS. NISSAN NEEDS TO ADDRESS AND FIX THIS PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY! I RAN INTO A POTHOLE RUINING MY TIRE AND RIM BECAUSE I COULD THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH LIGHT OUTPUT FOR ME TO SEE

TRANSMISSION ON NISSAN ARE EASILY DAMAGED MY CAR START BUT DONT DRIVE I JUST PAID MY CAR OFF IN STARTING TO HAVE PROBLEMS

THE CAR WAS BUZZING UNDER THE HOOD, LEFT-SIDED, WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT IT FROM THE DEALERSHIP IN A USED CONDITION. THIS BUZZING SOUND APPEAR WHEN IT IS AROUND 1.75 RPM. THE BUZZING GOT WORSENED RECENTLY AND ESCALATED TO A MECHANICAL GRINDING SOUND. THE GRINDING SOUNDED LIKE METAL PIECES COLLIDING ON EACH OTHER AND WAS SO LOUD THAT THE PEOPLE ON THE ENTIRE STREET COULD HEAR. IT WAS THE WORST (MOST FREQUENT) WHEN THE CAR STARTED UP COLD OR IN ANY GEARS FOR DRIVING (R, D, DS). WHEN THE CAR WAS AT P OR N, THE SOUND DIDN'T COME ON AS OFTEN. EVEN AFTER WARMING UP THE CAR, THE SOUND WAS THERE AT 1.5-1.75 RPM, NO MATTER AT WHAT SPEED. AS LONG AS IT REACHED THAT RANGE OF RPM, THE SOUND ACCOMPANIED. I AM AFRAID THIS COSTLY PROBLEM (~$4000 TO REPLACE CVT TRANSMISSION) WILL CONTINUE TO WORSEN AND STOP WORKING OR BURN AT SOME POINT WHILE DRIVING, LEADING TO A SAFETY CONCERN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, SHE WAS UNABLE TO SEE THE ROAD WITH THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. THE CONTACT CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER HERITAGE NISSAN (1500 VETERANS MEMORIAL HWY NE, ROME, GA 30161, (706) 291-1981) AND MADE THE DEALER AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED AS OF YET. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 112,000.*DT DEALERSHIP TOLD THE CONSUMER THE REFLECTOR AND THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT BE REPLACED.*JB

THE LOWER LINK OF THE LEVER ARM FOR THE REAR RIGHT SUSPENSION BROKE OFF. THIS MADE THE REAR END OF MY VEHICLE TO WANT TO SHIFT LATERALLY WHILE DRIVING. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY GOING ABOUT 35MPH WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I WAS ACCELERATING FROM A STOP SIGN ON A COUNTRY ROAD AND NOTICED THE EXTRA MOTION WHILE TURNING AT A BEND IN THE ROAD. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID MY CAR MODEL DID NOT HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS PART, HOWEVER OTHER NISSAN ALTIMA'S WERE RE-CALLED FOR THIS SIMILAR ISSUE. MY MECHANIC ADVISED ME TO REPLACE THE OTHER SIDE AS WELL BECAUSE THE RUST HAD CORRODED IT AS WELL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE HOOD SPONTANEOUSLY OPENED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT CALLED WOODFIELD NISSAN (700 W HIGGINS RD, HOFFMAN ESTATES, IL 60169, (847)310-1900) HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT STATED FAILURE WAS SIMILAR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V029000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 121,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS SIMPLY DO NOT WORK. I CANNOT SEE THE ROAD DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME AT FIRST THEN REALIZED THAT THIS IS A NATIONAL AND RECOGNIZED PROBLEM WITHIN THE NISSAN WORLD. USING THE HIGH BEAM IN PLACE OF THE LOW BEAM DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AS THEY ARE NOT TRUE HIGH BEAM LIGHTS EITHER. THIS HAS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE. NEW LIGHT BULBS DONT RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. WHY DONI HAVE TO PAY OVER $1000 TO FIX A NISSAN PROBLEM.

RECENTLY PURCHASED VEHICLE THEN REALIZED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE PROPERLY

THE LOW BEAMS LIGHTS DO NOT LIGHT UP THE ROAD. EVEN WHEN THE BULBS ARE REPLACED. THIS IS EVERY TIME THE CAR IS DRIVEN AT NIGHT. INTERSTATE DRIVING WITH LOW BEAMS IS VERY DANGEROUS

PURCHASED A NEW 2013 ALITIMA ALMOST 8 YEARS AGO. ON JAN 17, 2021, AS I WAS DRIVING, OTHERS WERE HONKING THEIR HORNS AND AS I TURNED INTO A DIM STREET, I WASN'T ABLE TO SEE AHEAD OF ME. VERY SCARY AS I COULD HAVE HIT NEIGHBORS WHO ARE WALKING IN THE EVENING AFTER DARK. NO LONGER COMFORTABLE DRIVING AT NIGHT. DEALER SAID ALTHOUGH I PURCHASED THE GOLD PREFFERED EXTENDED WARRANTY, THAT THIS ISSUE IS NOT COVERED. I OPENED A CASE AT NISSAN CONSUMER COMPLAINTS AND THEY SAID SORRY BUT THERE ARE NO RECALLS AND THE WARRANTY WON'T COVER IT. $1305.63 IS WAY TOO MUCH THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A SAFETY ISSUE.

MY DASHBOARD LIGHTS DO NOT WORK.(SPEEDOMETER, GAS LEVEL, MILAGE, HOT/COLD LEVEL, ETC.) MY STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS DO NOT WORK (VOLUME BUTTON, MENU BUTTON, SOURCE BUTTON,CRUISE CONTROL, ETC.) MY AIR CONDITION/HEAT TEMPERATURE DISPLAY DOES NOT LIGHT UP. ALL THE FUSES HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND THEY ARE ALL GOOD. THE CONNECTION TO THE BATTERY HAD BEEN CHECKED AND THEY ARE GOOD.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS. I FOUND OUT TODAY

HI, I AM AN OWNER OF A NISSAN ALTIMA 2013 S VEHICLE. RECENTLY I NOTICED THAT AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED WITH B0028-13 AND SAID IT WAS A PAST CODE AND CLEARED THE CODE. IT CAME BACK ON AGAIN WHILE I WAS DRIVING AFTER A MONTH. I AGAIN DIAGNOSED AND THE SAME CODE AND SHOWING A PAST CODE. DEALER COULDN'T IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM AND SAID IT NEEDS TO REPLACE THE WHOLE SEAT, WHICH WILL COST 1800 DOLLARS. THEY SAID THE AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE NEEDS TO BE CHANGED. AND I NOTICED ONE THING, AFTER CODE IS GETTING CLEARED, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT DOESN'T COME ALL OF A SUDDENLY, ALTHOUGH IT HAS SOME PROBLEM WITH PASSENGER OCCUPANCY TOO, AS SOMETIME EVEN IF AN ADULT SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, PASSENGER AIRBAG STAYS OFF. WHICH IS VERY RISKY WHILE DRIVING. NISSAN HAS NO ANSWER TO THAT. AND RIGHT AFTER THAT, AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COMES BACK. I AM A STUDENT AND DON'T HAVE THAT MUCH OF MONEY TO GET THIS COSTLY REPAIR ( SEAT REPLACEMENT) DONE AND IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE HELP ME IN THIS MATTER.

AFTER WORK ON 1/16/2021, I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE THRUWAY, ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR FELT LIKE IT WAS ON THE ICE, HOWEVER, THERE WAS NONE ON THE ROAD. I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE STEERING OF MY CAR, THE BACK END WAS SLIDING AND THE STIRRING WHEEL WAS TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT BUT THE FRONT PART OF THE CAR WAS NOT TURNING. I COULD NOT PULL OVER DUE TO BEING ON A BRIDGE AND NO CONTROL OF THE STEERING. I DID LET OFF THE GAS AND COST DOWNHILL THE BEST I COULD, LUCKILY THE CAR DRIFTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I WAS FROZEN WITH FEAR, THE STATE POLICE CAME AND WE CALL A TOW TRUCK. WHEN MY CAR WAS ON THE BED OF THE TRUCK THE DRIVER POINTED TO THE BACK OF THE CAR SAID " WOW IT SNAPED". HE THEN EXPLAINED TO ME THE REAR CONTROL ARM WAS BROKEN. LATER THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. AS OF 1/20/2021,XD THE CAR IS BEING WORKED ON AND I HAVE NOT HEARD ANY UPDATE TO WHAT HAS HAPPEND ASSIDE FROM THE SNAPPED REAR CONTROL ARM.

I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT IN TOWN. I HEARD A VERY LOUD BANG COMING FROM THE UNDERSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I EXITED THE VEHICLE AND FOUND THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR TIRE WAS BENT INWARD. I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR AND NOTICED THAT THE REAR SUSPENSION CONTROL ARM HAD SNAPPED IN HALF AND WAS HANGING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IMMEDIATELY. A TOW TRUCK WAS CALLED AND THE VEHICLE TRANSPORTED TO A LOCAL BODY SHOP FOR SERVICE.

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE VIBRATED WITH A LOUD SOUND WAS COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT DRIVE WHILE IN THE REVERSE. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 111,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HER DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WOODHOUSE NISSAN (7801 NEBRASKA DR, BELLEVUE, NE 68005) WHERE SHE WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SAFE AND THAT THE TURBULENCE WAS PROBABLY FROM ICE ON THE ROAD. TWO DAYS LATER HER DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING 30 MPH, SHE HEARD AN ABNORMAL POPPING SOUND COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE STARTED TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL. HER DAUGHTER DROVE THE VEHICLE TO HER SISTER'S HOUSE AND UPON INSPECTION, SHE DISCOVERED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR TIRE WAS TURNED INWARDS TO THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER HAD A FRIEND INSPECT THE VEHICLE WHO DISCOVERED MAJOR CORROSION ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR CONTROL ARM. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER WHO THEN DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE WITH A DEFECTIVE REAR CONTROL ARM AND ECCENTRIC BOLTS THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED HER THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 77,000.

MY HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE AT NIGHT WITHOUT MY BRIGHTS TURNED ON. RESEARCH HAS SHOWN ME THAT I AM ONE OF MANY EXPERIENCING THIS SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLAMPS ON THE VEHICLE FAILED TO FUNCTION AS DESIGNED CAUSING A VISIBILITY HAZZARD. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN NORTH (8645 N. HIGH ST, COLUMBUS, OH 43235, (614)846-8100) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND BECAME WORSE OVER TIME. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 81,000.

WHILE DRIVING WITH HEADLIGHTS ON THERE IS VERY LOW VISIBILITY, IT ALMOST APPEARS THE HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT ON AT ALL. WHEN SWITCHING TO THE HIGH BEAMS THEY APPEAR TO NOT BE AS BRIGHT AS NORMAL EITHER. THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM THAT I FEAR COULD LEAD TO A COLLISION DUE TO VERY LOW VISIBILITY.

HEAD LIGHTS ARE SO FUN LOOKS AS IF THEY ARE NOT ON, AIRBAG LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON EVEN WITH PASSENGER IN SEAT, BOTH AIR BAG LIGHTS ON DASK AND IN CONSOLE. DOESN'T MATTER IF CAR IS IN MOTION OR NOT COMPLETELY DANGEROUS

THE LOW BEAMS HAVE ARE HORRIBLE. VISIBILITY IS LESS THAN 100 FEET. BRIGHTS NEED TO BE USED CREATING AN EVEN MORE HAZARDOUS SITUATION.

THE HEAD LIGHTS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY. HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND THEY STILL DO NOT WORK PROPERLY. I WAS TOLD THE HEADLIGHTS ARE A KNOWN ISSUE AND NEED TO BE RECALLED ON THE ALTIMA AND THAT NISSAN NEEDS TO ADDRESS IT. WHY HAD THIS NOT BEEN DONE? IT'S VERY UNSAFE. I JUST GOT THE ALTIMA AND IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVE WHEN LIGHTS ARE NEEDED.

THE DIM HEADLIGHTS ARE BARELY VISIBLE. PROVIDES ALMOST ZERO LIGHT ON THE ROAD. HAVE TO DRIVE WITH BRIGHTS ON ALL THE TIME. HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS NUMEROUS TIMES AND RECENTLY LEARNED THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THE 2013-2015 MODELS. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH LIGHTS THAT DO NOTHING.

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY NISSAN ALTIMA ARE SO DIM THAT I CANNOT DRIVE SAFELY AT NIGHT. NOT ONLY ARE THE LOW BEAMS EXTREMELY DIM, THEY DO NOT PROJECT FAR DOWN THE ROAD AT ALL OR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THEY ONLY SEEM TO PROJECT IN A SMALL AREA DOWN ON THE ROAD RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME THUS CAUSING HUGE VISIBILITY PROBLEMS WHEN TRYING TO SCAN/SEE WHAT IS COMING UP IN FRONT OF ME. IT IS A HUGE DANGER FOR NIGHT DRIVING IF YOU CANNOT SEE WITH YOUR HEADLIGHTS ON!

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY HOOD FLEW OPEN AND HIT MY WINDSHIELD VERY HARD. I WAS UNABLE TO SEE DUE TO HOOD FLYING UP AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO CRASH. IT DAMAGED MY SIDE FENDERS DUE TO IMPACT. I WAS GOING ABOUT 20MPH ON A SIDE ROAD IN GAHANNA OH. IT HAPPENED ON 12/28/2020. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF OPEN RECALLS VIA MAIL NOR EMAIL. I AM HIGHLY UPSET AT THE FACT IT COULD HAVE HARMED ME OR SOMEONE ELSE. I WOULD LIKE TO BE CONTACTED REGARDING THIS MATTER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

THE HEADLIGHTS AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS ARE EXTREEMELY DIM ON THIS VEHICLE. SAFETY HAZARD, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY. LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS QUICKLY DETERIORATED WITHIN 1 YEAR AND NO LONGER ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY AT NIGHT. UNSAFE TO OPERATE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT USING LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. IT IS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE AT NIGHT USING THESE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. I REPLACED ALL FOUR HEADLIGHT BULBS, LOW AND HIGH BEAM, AND THIS DID NOT MAKE ANY IMPROVEMENT IN LOW BEAM ILLUMINATION. THE PROBLEM IS IN THE HEADLIGHT ENCLOSURE ASSEMBLY (PROJECTOR/REFLECTOR ISSUE) WHICH MUST BE REPLACED WITH NEW AT A COST IN EXCESS OF $1,000 BECAUSE IT REQUIRES REMOVAL OF THE FRONT BUMPER COVER AND PLASTIC SPLASH LINER UNDER BUMPER COVER. THIS COMPLAINT IS FREQUENTLY MENTIONED BY OTHER 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS AND NISSAN HAS TO BE AWARE OF THE ISSUE DUE TO ITS COMMON OCCURRENCE AND FREQUENT COMPLAINTS BY OWNERS.

UNABLE TO SECURELY CLOSE THE HOOD AS PRIMARY LATCH WILL NOT STAY ENGAGED. FOLLOWED THE PROCEDURE ON THE RECALL NOTICE, BUT WHENEVER DRIVING ON A ROAD IMPERFECTION HOOD POPS UP TO SECONDARY POSITION. WE DO NOT TRUST THE VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON BECAUSE OF MANUFACTURER DEFECT WITH SENSOR CIRCUIT (NOTED IN NISSAN BULLETIN 16-030). MANUFACTURER SPECIAL POLICY ADJUSTMENT PROGRAMS LISTED ON DEALER INVOICE STATES SERVICES REGARDING THIS DEFECT WILL BE AT NO CHARGE TO OWNER. HOWEVER, DEALER REFUSES TO HONOR POLICY AND CHARGED FOR SERVICE.

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED MOVING, TRANSMISSION LOCKED UP. MY REPAIR SHOP COULDN'T FIX IT OR FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. CAR HAS BEEN SITTING FOR WEEKS WHILE TRYING TO GET IN CONTACT WITH NISSAN WHO HAS TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLES CVT TRANSMISSION AND THEY HAD NEVER SENT OUT A RECALL NOTICE TO ME AND I'VE BEEN THE REGISTER OWNER FOR YEARS.

I BOUGHT CAR ON A SATURDAY MORNING. WENT OUT OF TOWN AND DROVE HOME LATE AT NIGHT. I WAS NOT HAPPY WITH THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE HEADLIGHTS OF A BRAND NEW CAR. OVER THE PAST 8 YEARS THE BRIGHTNESS HAS DETERIORATED SO BAD MY WIFE WILL NOT DRIVE THIS CAR AT NIGHT.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO USE DURING THE DARK AND TRIPLE THE CONCERN WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT AND IT'S RAINING. THIS USED TO NOT BE THE CASE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD!!! THIS HAPPENS WHETHER STREET DRIVING OR HIGHWAY DRIVING AND ESSENTIALLY MAKES ME HAVE TO USE THE BRIGHT LIGHTS WHEN THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER NATURAL LIGHTING TO HELP

THE RED AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON DASHBOARDS IS SOLID LIT WITHOUT A ADULT PASSENGER ON PASSENGER SEAT. THE LIGHT GOES OFF WHEN THERE IS A ADULT PASSENGER ON THE PASSENGER SEAT

THERE IS A RECALL ON THE HOOD LATCHES OF THESE VEHICLES THAT HAS NOT YET BEEN COMPLETED BUT I HAD AN INCIDENT OCCUR WHERE MY HOOD DID FLY OPEN ON ME WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE WHICH I HAVE NOT YET BEEN ABLE TO PAY FOR. I WAS ABLE TO PURCHASE A NEW HOOD LATCH AND SECURE THE HOOD BUT THE DAMAGE IS STILL PRESENT, THE HOOD DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY, THE FENDERS WERE PUSHED BACK AND DAMAGED....I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I COULD HAVE MY VEHICLE INSPECTED AND POSSIBLY REPAIRED WITH NO COST TO ME DUE TO THIS RECALL? I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40MPH ON A SECONDARY HIGHWAY WITH A GOOD DEAL OF TRAFFIC WHEN THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED WITH MY 2 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. IT WAS TERRIFYING. I STILL HAVE TRAUMA TO THIS DAY FROM THAT INCIDENT AND MY HOOD STILL DOES NOT LOOK PROPERLY SEALED AND WHEN I DRIVE OVER 60MPH I CAN SEE VIBRATIONS IN THE HOOD WHICH MAKE ME FEEL WITHOUT THE PROPER FIX, IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.

I NOTICED IN NOVEMBER 1, 2019 THAT THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE BECOMING INCREASINGLY DIM. THIS ISSUE HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE TO THE POINT THAT I HAVE TO TURN ON THE BRIGHT LIGHTS TO SEE AT NIGHT. THE DIM LOW BEAM LIGHTS CREATE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE ON ALL TYPES OF ROADS. MY WORK AS A REGISTERED NURSE REQUIRES 12 HOUR SHIFTS, WHICH MEANS I LEAVE HOME WHEN IT'S DARK AND LEAVE WORK WHEN IT'S DARK. WHEN I QUESTIONED A NISSAN DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD IT WAS A NISSAN DEFECT AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE TO CORRECT IT. I WAS ALSO TOLD I COULD REPLACE WITH AFTERMARKET PARTS, WHICH IS VERY EXPENSIVE. I WAS TOLD NOT TO REPLACE WITH NISSAN PARTS BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE THE SAME ISSUE SINCE THE DEFECT IS NISSAN. I CONTACTED NISSAN IN NASHVILLE TO FILE A COMPLAINT AND WAS TOLD NOTHING COULD BE DONE BECAUSE MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I WAS ONLY GIVEN AN OPTION TO ASK THE NISSAN DEALER FOR A DISCOUNT.

THE LOW BEAM DRIVING LIGHTS AREN'T BRIGHT ENOUGH TO SAFELY ILLUMINATE THE ROAD. IT IS NOT DUE TO OLD BULBS, BUT RATHER DUE TO THE DESIGN AND MATERIALS OF THE REFLECTOR SYSTEM SURROUNDING THE BULB WHICH HAS DETERIORATED. HIGH BEAMS WORK FINE. LOW BEAMS MIGHT AS WELL BE OFF AS PEDESTRIANS, PARKED CARS, STOPPED CARS, ARE ALL NOT VISIBLE UNTIL WITHIN 20-30 FEET IN FRONT WHEN DRIVING ON OTHERWISE DIMLY LIT ROADS. I HAVE RUN OVER A SMALL CURB THAT WAS NOT VISIBLE DUE TO THE POOR LIGHTING. I AM CONCERNED I WILL NOT HAVE STOPPING DISTANCE IN RAIN EVEN AT LOW SPEED, SHOULD A PEDESTRIAN SUDDENLY BE VISIBLE IN THE LOW LIGHTING.

1)EXTREMELY DIM HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. DANGEROUSLY DIM AND HAS STEADILY GOTTEN WORSE OVER 2 YEARS EVEN AFTER LIGHT BULBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED. BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY ARE ISSUE. 2)HOOD WILL NOT CLOSE AND LATCH PROPERLY AS OF TODAY 12-14-2020 FOLLOWING STATIONARY ROUTINE OPENING OF HOOD. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. RECALL REPLACEMENT FOR LATCH HAS NOT BEEN PROVIDED BY MAKER AS OF THIS DATE. RECALL WAS IN MAY 2020.

ON SATURDAY DECEMBER 12, 2020 I WAS DRIVING AND THE HOOD OPENED UP, SLAMMED ABOVE THE WINDSHIELD. I LUCKILY WAS NOT IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AT THAT POINT AND PULLED OVER. THE HOOD IS DENTED, CHIPPED PAINT, BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT UPPER FENDERS ARE BENT, AND HINGES ARE NO LONGER RELIABLE. THE RUBBER ON THE SIDES OF THE WINDSHIELD LIFTED AND SEPARATION OF THE UPPER FENDERS ON BOTH SIDES ALONG RIGHT AND LEFT SIDE OF WINDSHIELD. I WAS LUCKILY DRIVING STRAIGHT IN THE SUBURBS OF NY, NOT MUCH TRAFFIC AT THE TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, A RATTLING SOUND WAS PRESENT COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR LOWER SUSPENSION LINK HAD CORRODED AND SEPARATED FROM THE REAR BUSHING LINK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER FUCCILLO NISSAN OF LATHAM LOCATED AT 976 NEW LOUDON RD, LATHAM, NY 12110 WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE HOWEVER, NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000.

HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. LAMPS HAVE BEEN REPLACED, HOWEVER THE NISSAN DEALER STATED THE INTERIOR OF THE LAMP HOUSING THAT REFLECTS THE LIGHT BEAM IS DETERIORATED. THERE LITERALLY IS NO LIGHT PROTRUDING FORWARD. CAN NOT SAFELY DRIVE THE CAR AT NIGHT WITHOUT USING THE HIGH BEAMS. THE COST TO FIX THIS DEFECT IS OVER $1,000. THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT FROM THE LOW BEAMS IS LESS THAN DAYLIGHT RUNNING LAMPS. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THE LIGHTING HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE OVER THE YEARS. THIS IS NOT A LAMP ISSUE OR TYPE OF LAMP, RATHER THE ACTUAL REFLECTIVE HOUSING INTERNALLY THAT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE TO REPAIR, THE ENTIRE HOUSING MUST BE REPLACED. THIS SITUATION IS EQUALLY THE SAME FOR BOTH HEADLAMPS. FUNNY HOW THE NISSAN DEALER KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS THEY HAVE EXPRESSED OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, YET THERE'S NOT BEEN A RECALL FOR WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THE CAR......CLEAR VISIBILITY TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO PRODUCE ADEQUATE LIGHTING. THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED DEACON JONES NISSAN (3305 MCLAIN ST, GOLDSBORO, NC 27534, (919)734-2411). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED HOWEVER, NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 116,000. *BF

CAR JOLTS AND SHUDDERS ON THE ROAD INTERMITTENTLY. VERY UNSAFE AS CAR JOLTS FORWARD ON ITS OWN. CAR STALLS SOMETIMES ON THE ROAD. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. WHEN YOU GIVE A LITTLE GAS, CAR WILL SOMETIMES GO NORMALLY OR IT WILL JOLT FORWARD LIKE A CLUTCH BEING LET OUT EVEN THOUGH ITS AN AUTOMATIC. ALWAYS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE WITH 2013 NISSANS AND STILL THEY HAVE NOT DONE A RECALL. THINGS THAT ARE THIS DANGEROUS SHOULD BE RECALLED BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE CANNOT PAY 4000 DOLLARS FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION.

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION TO SAFELY OPERATE THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MONROE NISSAN (5510 WEST HIGHWAY 74, MONROE, NC 28110, (980)313-8400) WHERE THE MECHANIC CLEANED THE HEADLIGHT HOUSINGS HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,000.*DT*DT CONSUMER STATED VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BUT NO PROBLEM COULD BE FOUND.*JB*JB

REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM BROKE AT THE FRAME DUE TO CORROSION

THE AIRBAG LIGHT FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE STAYS ON WHICH MEANS THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WILL NOT DEPLOY BECAUSE IT'S NOT DETECTING ANY WEIGHT. EVEN WHEN SOMEONE SITS IN IT IT DOESN'T DETECT WEIGHT. THE TIRES ARE CONSTANTLY LOSING AIR.

THE LOW BEAMS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE SO LOW I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS 100% OF THE TIME WHEN IT IS DARK. I DRIVE A MINIMUM OF 50 MILES A DAY JUST TO AND FROM WORK AND DEPENDING ON THE SEASON IT IS DARK BOTH WAYS. THIS IS A DANGER TO MYSELF AND OTHER DRIVERS WHO GET REALLY MAD ( AND DEFINITELY LET ME KNOW IT ). ON COMING DRIVERS FLASH THEIR LIGHTS AT ME AND CARS THAT I FOLLOW EVEN SLOW DOWN SO MUCH THAT I HAVE TO PASS THEM JUST SO THEY CAN TAILGATE ME WITH THEIR HIGH BEAMS ON. IT'S SCARY !! I LIVE IN A VERY RURAL AREA WITH HIGH DEER TRAFFIC AND MINIMAL STREET LIGHTS. WE HAVE TRIED REPLACING LIGHT BULBS SEVERAL TIMES TO NO AVAIL. FROM WHAT I AM READING, LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE AS WELL. THE FIX IS NOT CHEAP BUT WE WILL HAVE TO DISH OUT THE MONEY TO DO IT BEFORE I GET PULLED OVER AND TICKETED OR WORSE, GET IN ACCIDENT CAUSING INJURY OR DEATH TO SOMEONE INCLUDING MYSELF.

THE HEADLIGHTS IN THE DIM POSITION DO NOT SUFFICIENTLY PROVIDE ENOUGH LIGHT TO SAFELY DRIVE AT NIGHT WHILE DRIVING.

MY CAR HESITATES WHEN IN REVERSE OR WHEN AT RED LIGHTS. THIS HAPPENS WHILE IN DRIVE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GEAR SHIFTER FAILED TO SHIFT FROM THE PARK POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE FAILURE WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE GEAR SHIFTER ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS STILL AT THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR REPAIRS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER INFORMED HER THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN FAILURE WITH SIMILAR VEHICLES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA TO FILE A COMPLAINT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 187,000.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM TO OPERATE SAFELY AT NIGHT, ESPECIALLY WITH WET ROADS. REPLACEMENT OF LIGHT BULBS DOES NOT IMPROVE LOW-BEAM PERFORMANCE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A FAILURE OF THE LOW-BEAM PROJECTION COATING IN THE HEADLIGHT HOUSING. THE SITUATION IS RAPIDLY GETTING WORSE.

THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THE SECOND LATCH OF THE HOOD ON MY NISSAN ALTIMA FOR MORE THAN 3 MONTHS NOW AND THE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. THE VEHICLE IS STILL ABLE TO BE USED HOWEVER, IT IS QUITE DANGEROUS IF THE LATCH ACCIDENTALLY GETS PULED WHILE DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE EXTREMELY DIM AND PRESENTED A DRIVING HAZARD WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT OR IN LOW LIGHT CONDITIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PETRO NISSAN (6248 US-98, HATTIESBURG, MS 39402, (601) 450-1470) HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO RESPONSE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

HEAD LIGHT LOW BEAMS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. CAN'T SEE BEYOND 100 FEET. I MUST DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS ON OR CAN'T SEE. LIKE HAVING A SMALL FLASHLIGHT FOR HEAD LIGHTS. VERY DANGEROUS EASILY CAN SEE AN ACCIDENT (CRASH) COMING SOON ESPECIALLY IN RAIN AT NIGHT. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2013 ALTIMA. NISSAN HAS NOT RECALLED YET FORD DID IN 2012 FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. SOMONE IS GOING TO DIE. DELALER QUOTED $1200 TO REPLACE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. THIS DEFINITELY MUST BE RECALLED.

THE AIRBAG SIGN CAME (CODE B0028) ON AT 110000 MILES ALTHOUGH I HAVEN'T BEEN ON ANY ACCIDENTS FOR LAST 12000 MILES. WHEN I CHECKED WITH DEALERS, THEY SAID AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE IS MALFUNCTIONING AND NEED TO REPLACE THAT WITH RIGHT SIDE PASSENGER AIRBAG WIRES AND MIGHT COST 2000 OR MORE DOLLARS. I AM AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT AND IT'S HARD FOR ME TO ARRANGE THAT MUCH MONEY. PLEASE HELP ME, AS I HAVE COME TO KNOW THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN NISSAN VEHICLES. THE AIRBAG SIGN COMES BACK AFTER CLEARING THE CODE IF SOMEONE SITS IN THE PASSENGER SIDE. THANK YOU FOR READING MY REQUEST.

WHEN IN THE PARKED POSITION AND IDLE, THE PRESSING OF THE SHIFT TRIGGER ON THE SHIFTER WILL NOT ALLOW THE CAR TO SHIFT FROM PARKED TO ANY OTHER POSITION (IT IS STUCK) DUE TO THE FAILURE OF A SELENOID SENSOR NOT ACTIVATING FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL AFTER PRESSING THE BRAKE IN ORDER TO ALLOW THE SHIFTING TO TAKE PLACE. PLEASE SEE THE LINK OF THE YOUTUBE VIDEO TO EXPLAIN THE ISSUE/RESOLUTION: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=EU7VM2Y-7LY

A/C WAS BLOWING HOT AIR WHILE DRIVING AND HOT AIR WHEN I CAME TO STOPS AND IDLED. IT'S ONLY FOR SOME CARS THAT HAVE AUTO CLIMATE CONTROL APPARENTLY. THE ISSUE IS THE AC COMPRESSOR CONTROL VALVE FAILING. PLEASE SEE THE YOUTUBE LINK FOR A BETTER EXPLANATION OF THE ISSUE/RESOLUTION: HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/IDWEDXJENKO

THE LOW BEAMS ON MY HEADLIGHTS ARE REALLY DIM AND THE HOUSING UNIT FOR THE BULB IS BURNT OUT NOT ALLOWING THE LIGHT TO PROJECT. I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING WITHOUT THE USE OF MY HIGH BEAMS ON CAUSING A HUGE VISIBILITY SAFETY ISSUE. I WILL NEED TO BUY ALL NEW HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES IN ORDER TO HAVE GOOD VISIBILITY AND TO FIX THE ISSUE. PLEASE SEE THE PHOTO ATTACHED AND A LINK TO YOUTUBE FOR A BETTER EXPLANATION OF THE ISSUE.

LOW BEAM PERFORMANCE WAS ALWAYS SUB-PAR WHEN CAR WAS NEW. AS THE THE CAR AGES THE LOW BEAM PERFORMANCE IS GETTING WORSE. ANECDOTAL EVIDENCE ON THE INTERNET SAYS THE REFLECTOR WITHIN THE LOW BEAM PROJECTORS DETERIORATES, THUS REDUCING LOW BEAM PERFORMANCE.

THE LIGHTING PROVIDED BY THE HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM ARE WOEFULLY SUB STANDARD AND MAKES IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. RESEARCH INDICATES THIS HAS BEEN WIDELY KNOWN IN 2013-2015 MODELS. THE COST OF REPAIRS IS IN THE $1000 RANGE. SINCE THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE AND BULB REPLACEMENT DOES NOT CORRECT THE SAFETY HAZARD THIS SHOULD QUALIFY AS A RECALL AND BE FIXED AT NO CHARGE TO THE CONSUMER. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO,HAPPEN. MY WIFE REFUSES TO DRIVE THIS CAR AT NIGHT DUE TO THE POOR VISIBILITY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE JERKED AND LOSS MOTIVE POWER WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROADWAY HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO ACCELERATE FORWARD. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESUME BACK TO NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MICHAEL JORDAN NISSAN (3930 DURHAM CHAPEL HILL BLVD, DURHAM, NC 27707, (919) 489-3800) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 155,000. *BF*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT FAILED TO PRODUCE ADEQUATE LIGHTING WHILE DRIVING. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 145,000.*DT *TR

REAR LOWER CONTROL A ARM THAT HOLDS SPRING ROTTED AT WELDS AND BROKE MADE TIRE DRAG DOWN HIGHWAY AT 65MPH ALMOST CRASHED BECAUSE OF THIS .COST ME 150 TOW PLUS THE PART WAS FEW HUNDRED TOO.🙁. LIGHTS SUCK SO BAD CAN'T SEE AT NIGHT. 30 FEET IF THAT, I HAVE REPLACED BULBS (40)$ AND STILL SUCK DEFINITELY SOMETHING NOT RIGHT ..THEY HAVE BEEN GETTING WORSE MONTH BY MONTH. WHEN I GOT THE CAR AT 30 K MILES IT WAS THE BEST CAR I'VE EVER OWNED. 11/09/2020

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE GOTTEN SO DIM WE CANT EVEN DRIVE AT NIGHT WITH OUT HIGH BEAMS THIS I FEEL IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES HAVING THIS PROBLEM WITH THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL FROM 2013 TO 2015 NISSAN SHOULD RECALL AND REPLACE THEM AS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT STARTED ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO

BACKING DOWN A DRIVEWAY AND IT FELT LIKE I HAD HIT SOMETHING, OR WAS PUSHING IT. THERE WAS NOTHING UNDER OR BEHIND THE CAR. THE PASSENGER REAR CONTROL ARM BROKE.

THE LOW BEAMS FOR MY 2013 ALTIMA SL HAVE BECOME TOO DIM FOR ME TO SEE AT NIGHT. I HAVE HAD TO START USING THE HIGH BEAMS TO SEE AT NIGHT WHICH COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR OTHER DRIVERS, BUT IF I DIDN'T USE THEM I COULD CRASH DUE TO POOR VISIBILITY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. AFTER RESEARCHING THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT BECAME AWARE THAT THE INTERIOR MATERIAL HEADLIGHT HOUSING DETERIORATED OVER TIME AND THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE HEADLIGHTS WERE NOR REPLACED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 137,000.

HAVE BEEN WAITING OVER 6 MONTHS FOR RESOLUTION REPAIR TO THE HOOD LATCH, I AM LOOSING INCOME WAITING ON RECALL REPAIR

LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE HORRIBLE YOU CANNOT SEE 1FT IN FRONT OF YOU THIS IS A MAJOR SAFTEY ISSUE AND SOMEONE IS GOING END UP GETTING IN A MAJOR WRECK IF THIS ISSUE IS NOT RECALLED

THE HEADLIGHT SLOWLY LOST THEIR ABILITY TO REFLECT LIGHT FROM THE BULB. THEY STARTED BRIGHT WHEN I OWNED THE CAR BUT SLOWLY BECAME MORE DIM AS TIME WENT ON. I REALIZE THAT HALOGEN BULBS WILL DO THAT, BUT THIS WASN'T THE RESULT OF THE BULB. THE REFLECTIVE COATING INSIDE OF THE LOW BEAM PROJECTOR HAD STARTED TO COME OFF AND THE PROJECTOR WAS NOT PROJECTING LIGHT AS IT SHOULD. IT BECAME SO DIM THAT I COULD BARELY SEE AT NIGHT, IF THE ROADS WERE NOT LIT UP. IT WASN'T MUCH OF A PROBLEM IF I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A LIGHTED CITY, BUT IF I WAS ON BACK COUNTRY ROADS, I COULDN'T SEE MORE THAN FORTY FEET AHEAD. I HAVE REPLACED BOTH HOUSINGS AND I WAS ABLE TO SEE MUCH FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD. I TRIED PUTTING A NEW BULB IN THE OLD HOUSING, BUT IT STILL FAILED TO REFLECT THE LIGHT. I HAVE PICTURES OF OUTSIDE ONE OF THE HEADLIGHTS AND A PICTURE OF INSIDE THE REFLECTOR. IT SHOWS WHERE THE REFLECTIVE COATING WAS COMING OFF. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN ALTIMAS THAT HAVE BOTH HALOGEN AND XENON HEADLIGHTS. I ATTACHED THE PICTURES TO MY COMPLAINT. THIS IS NOT A ONE TIME INCIDENT, BUT RATHER AN ONGOING ISSUE THAT PROGRESSIVE GOT WORSE UNTIL THE FAULTY PARTS WERE REPLACED.

HEADLIGHTS EXTREMELY DIM CAUSING NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD. ISSUE IS DUE TO DEGRADATION OF REFLECTOR IN HEADLIGHT HOUSING. I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES TO RESOLVE SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE CAR. THIS IS APPARENTLY A PRONOUNCED PROBLEM WITH NISSAN ALTIMAS PER NISSAN ONLINE FORUMS. PHOTO SHOWS REPLACEMENT HEADLIGHT ON LEFT AND THE ORIGINAL DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHT REFLECTOR ON THE RIGHT.

ON MY WAY TO WORK LOWER CONTROL ARM BROKE WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE STREET JUST BEFORE I GOT ON THE HIGHWAY

THE CVT TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK AT ALL. I AM FORCED TO DEPRESS THE SHIFT OVERRIDE IN ORDER TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK EVERY TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE APPROACHING HER PARKED VEHICLE, SHE NOTICED THAT THE HOOD WAS SLIGHTLY OPENED. THE CONTACT STATED SHE WAS UNABLE TO CLOSE THE HOOD MANUALLY AND HAD TO CALL HER BROTHER TO CLOSE THE HOOD FOR HER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V315000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT CALLED BARBERINO NISSAN (505 N COLONY RD, WALLINGFORD, CT 06492; (203) 265-1611) WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT PARTS WERE NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I HAVE HAD MY 2013 ALTIMA FOR 6 MONTHD. IT WAS MARYLAND STATE INSPECTED IN APRIL BEFORE MY TIME OF PURCHASE. TODAY OCT 23, 2020 I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 50 MPH ON MY WAY TO WORK. I HEARD A BANG SOUND AND ALL MY TRAC CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON MY DASHBOARD AND I LIST STEERING IN THE REAR. PULLED OVER AND FOUND THE REAR CONTROL ARM OR A FRAME IS TOTALLY RUSTED AND BROKE IN HALF WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS WELDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. THIS IS NOT SAFE AT ALL. BEING A BEGINNER DRIVER ESPECIALLY, I SEE ALL COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM. WHY IS NISSAN NOT HELPING?

STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT. MADE LEFT TURN CAR SHUDDERED SMOOTHED OUT AND DROVE 1 MILE AND PARKED CAR FOR 30 MINUTES AND GOT READY TO MOVE VEHICLE AND SHIFTED TO REVERSE AND ENGINE STALLED. STARTED ENGINE PUT TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE AND ENGINE STALLED. DEALER SAY'S TRANSMISSION IS BAD AND NEEDS REPLACED.

THE CAR WAS STATIONARY IN THE DRIVEWAY, WITH WHEEL WEDGES PLACED AT FRONT TIRES. IT WAS JACKED UP THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE WAS REMOVED TO PUT ON NEW BRAKES, ONLY TO FIND A BOLT HOLDING THE CALIPER ON TO THE BRACKET WAS BROKE OFF. THIS WARRANTS A GREAT SAFETY CONCERN. DO ALL THE OTHER ONES HAVE TO BE CHANGED?- IN ORDER TO PREVENT A SAFETY HAZARD.

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.

AIRBAG SIGN CAME ON AT MILLAGE 112000 ALL OF A SUDDEN AND THE PASSENGER OCCUPANCY SENSOR TURN OFF AND ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. MECHANIC ARE RECOMMENDING TO REPLACE AIRBAG MODULE WHICH MIGHT COST COUPLE OF THOUSAND DOLLARS. PLEASE HELP ME! THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE SAYS B0028-13

THE HEADLIGHT PROJECTOR HOUSING HAS "FAILED" AFTER 6-7 YEARS. THE REFLECTIVE COATING IN THE PROJECTOR HOUSING NO LONGER WORKS PROPERLY, WITH ABSOLUTELY NO DAMAGE TO THEM. EVEN WITH BRAND NEW HEADLIGHT (LOWLIGHT) LED BULBS PUSHING 10,000 LUMENS, THE HEADLIGHTS BARELY PROJECT 30-50 FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR, AND DOES NOT ALLOW FOR PROPER LIGHTING AT NIGHT. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD AND NISSAN NEEDS TO SET A RECALL FOR THIS ON ALL 2013-2015 NISSAN ALTIMA(S). MANY PEOPLE ONLINE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS, AND NISSAN'S RESPONSE IS TO CHARGE PEOPLE UPWARDS OF $1000 TO REPLACE THE HEADLIGHTS COMPLETELY. THIS NEEDS TO BE FORCED AS A RECALL, PLEASE!

I HAVE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA S. IT HAS ~89K MILES ON IT. THE TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING ON 10/11/2020. HOW CAN NHTSA ASSIST? NISSAN REFUSED TO PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE. THE CVTS INSTALLED IN THE NISSAN ALTIMAS HAVE CAUSED A VARIETY OF PROBLEMS - SHAKING, LOSING ACCELERATION AND STALLING, AMONG OTHERS - ACCORDING TO OWNERS WHO ARE REGULARLY POSTING COMPLAINTS ON WEBSITES SUCH AS AUTONEWS.COM, CARCOMPLAINTS.COM, AND CARS.COM. NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS HAVE SECURED A SETTLEMENT OFFER FROM THE CARMAKER WHICH WOULD RESOLVE CLAIMS THAT THE VEHICLES' TRANSMISSIONS FAIL PREMATURELY.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM TO SAFELY SEE AT NIGHT.

CAR DOES NOT MOVE EVEN IF I PUT IT ON REVERSE OR DRIVE OR ANY OTHER GEAR. TOW IT TO NEAREST MECHANIC, WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION IS BLOWN.

MY HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR AT NIGHT FOR FEAR OF GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. I'VE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2013-2015 NISSANS HOWEVER NISSAN HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM WHICH IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITH MY HIGH BEAMS TO BE ABLE TO SEE WHICH PUTS OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD AT RISK. AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO CORRECT AN ISSUE THAT STEMS FROM A DEFECTIVE/POOR QUALITY PART WITHIN THE HEADLAMPS.

THE DIM LIGHTS ARE SO DIM I CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. I HAVE TO USE THE BRIGHT LIGHTS TO SEE., ESPECIALLY WHEN PASSING ANOTHER CAR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I'VE SPENT A TOTAL OF $410 ON BULBS RECOMMENDED BY A CERTIFIED MECHANIC AND THEY ARE STILL AWFUL. ALSO ONE SET WAS THE HIGHEST LUMENS OF LED LIGHTS. PLEASE RE ALL THESE LIGHTS BECAUSE THIS IS SO DANGEROUS TO OWNERS AS WELL AS THE DRIVERS WE MEET ON THE ROADS AT NIGHT. I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS SINCE 12/2019. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE LIGHT COMPLAINTS.

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.

THE CHROME IN THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS TENDS TO BURN OUT QUICKLY WHICH AFFECTS THE PROJECTION. ACCORDING TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, THIS IS A KNOWN COSTLY REPAIR WITH 2013-2017 BUT MOSTLY AFFECTS THE 2013. THE REPAIR COSTS IS QUOTED AT $1119.85. WHEN THE HEADLAMPS BURN OUT THE CAR IS NOT DRIVABLE BECAUSE IT CANNOT PASS INSPECTION WHICH IS CURRENTLY MY ISSUE. I CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE THIS REPLACED WHICH UNFORTUNATELY AFFECTS MY EMPLOYMENT BECAUSE I CAN'T DRIVE TO WORK.

THE LOW BEAM ON THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM WE CANNOT DRIVE AT NIGHT. READING ONLINE IT WOULD SEEM THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM HOWEVER A BULB WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT HOUSING HAS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF THE INTERIOR PORTION WHERE THE BULB SETS IS DETERIORATING. . . STARTED NOTICING THIS 2 YEARS AGO AND IT GETTING WORSE.

AIRBAG LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF, IT STAYS ON SOLID RED. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND WAS INFORMED 2013 ALTIMA DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL FOR THE AIRBAG ISSUE.

THE LOW BEAM ON THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM WE CANNOT DRIVE AT NIGHT. THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ARE GREAT... READING ONLINE IT WOULD SEEM THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM HOWEVER A BULB WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT HOUSING HAS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF THE INTERIOR PORTION WHERE THE BULB SETS IS DETERIORATING... STARTED NOTICING THIS 2 YEARS AGO AND IT GETTING WORSE..

THE FLOORBOARD IS FULL OF WATER EVERY TIME IT RAINS. THE CAR SMELLS AND MOLD IS STARTING TO FORM. BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR FLOORBOARDS. IT WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY.

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

NOTICED THAT THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT HAS BEEN STAYING ON NO MATTER IF SOMEONE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT OR NOT. GOING TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT BY THE DEALERSHIP WHO MAY CHARGE ME TO RUN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST.

I HAVE THE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA AND IT IS HAVING VERY OBVIOUS SUSPENSION ISSUES AS IT IS SQUEAKING AND POPPING WITH TURNS AND BUMPS. THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS CURRENTLY DESPITE PEOPLE SAYING THEIR WHEELS CAME OFF WHEN THEIRS BROKE. I AM VERY SCARED TO DRIVE MY CHILD IN THIS VEHICLE THAT NISSAN DEEMS SAFE.

I WAS REVERSING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY. DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING. HEARD A SMALL 'THUMP.' I GOT OUT AND CHECKED MY CAR. EVERYTHING LOOKED OK. THEN ABOUT 2 BLOCKS LATER, IN DRIVE, ON A SIDE STREET, MY CAR STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY, AS THOUGH I HAD BEEN HIT, BUT I WASN'T. IT WAS LIKE THE WORST ROLLER COASTER EVER MADE. LOUD AND EXTREMELY SHAKY. I GOT HOME AND AS IT WAS NIGHT AND DARK OUT, DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING. TODAY WHEN THE DAYLIGHT CAME OUT, I NOTICED MY REAR PASSENGER TIRE LEANING INWARDS 'DRASTICALLY. SO I LOOKED UNDER THE TIRE AREA AND THERE WAS A CORRODED PIECE OF METAL HANGING DOWN WITH MY SPRING LOOSE. MY FRIEND AND I SEARCHED EVERYWHERE AND COULDN'T FIND THE PART'13-14 NISSAN ALTIMA SEDAN REAR PASSENGER RIGHT LOWER MAIN SPRING SUPPORT ARM. I CALLED NISSAN AND WAS QUOTED $200 AND SOME CHANGE. OK, NOT TOO BAD... THEN I STARTED GOOGLING FOR A CHEAPER PRICE AND LO AND BEHOLD, I COME ACROSS A FEW SITES SAYING YOU GUYS ARE INVESTING THIS, AND I BELIEVE A USA TODAY ARTICLE SAID THERE WAS NO 'RECALL,' BUT THAT THEY WERE GOING TO HAVE ROUGHLY 200,000 CARS IN THE USA AND CANADA COME IN TO HAVE IT FIXED. I DID NOT GET NOTICE FOR THIS! I WAS LUCKILY ABOUT A MILE FROM HOME. BUT I COULD BARELY CONTROL THE CAR. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, THE LEFT SIDE (DRIVER REAR) IS SHOWING SIGNS OF THE SAME WEAR. I WAS DRIVING IDLE SPEED IN ORDER TO 'BE SAFE.' WHY WAS I NOT NOTIFIED?! AND WHY IS IT THAT WHEN I CALLED NISSAN, THEY DID NOT TELL ME THIS WAS A 'KNOWN ISSUE' AS THEY HAVE IN THE PAST? WHY, WHEN MY CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY DID THEY NOT FIX IT? ANYTHING! THIS IS DANGEROUS! I LITERALLY HAD HARDLY ANY CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. ARE YOU STILL INVESTIGATING THIS? AND AGAIN, I SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN NOTICE TO HAVE IT FIXED! WHY ONLY 200,000 CARS?! THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. I WILL NEED REIMBURSEMENT SINCE THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUE!

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE A COMPLETE SAFETY HAZARD. IT IS LIKE I AM DRIVING WITHOUT ANY LIGHTS WHEN THEY ARE ON AND I CANNOT SEE AT ALL UNLESS I HAVE ON MY HIGH BEAMS. DRIVING WITH MY BRIGHTS ON ALL THE TIME AT NIGHT CAUSES ISSUES FOR THE DRIVERS AROUND ME. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED DUE TO THE LACK OF VISIBILITY. I HAVE HAD THE LIGHTS CHANGED AND THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM. PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING OF THE ISSUE ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND IT SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL BY NISSAN BEFORE THEY ARE SUED!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION FOR THE CONTACT SEE THE ROADWAY WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE DEALER AUTONATION FORD BROOKSVILLE (7200 BROAD STREET, BROOKSVILLE, FL 34601, (352) 419-0810) WAS CONTACTED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO REFERRED TO NHTSA FOR ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

WHEN TURN SIGNAL IS AUTOMATICALLY CANCELLED AS THE STEERING WHEEL IS STRAIGHTENED, SOMETIMES (NOT ALWAYS) IT ACTUATES THE 'LANE CHANGE' THREE-FLASH SIGNAL IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. FOR EXAMPLE, AFTER MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE SIGNAL CANCELS AND SIGNALS THREE FLASHES IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. THIS HAPPENS WHEN TURNING IN EITHER DIRECTION. IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES BUT DOES NOT HAPPEN AT EVERY TURN. I FEEL IT MAY BE A MALFUNCTION OF THE TURN SIGNAL ARM.

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

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. FOG LIGHTS ARE BRIGHTER THAN LOW BEAMS. MUST DRIVE CAR WITH HIGH BEAMS ON TO SEE AT NIGHT. ILLEGAL TO DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS ON - FEAR TICKET FOR TRAFFIC VIOLATION. FEAR CAUSING AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF BLINDING ANOTHER ONCOMING DRIVER WITH HIGH BEAMS ON. HAD ONE LOW BEAM DIE WHILE ON A 250 MILE TRIP AND COULD NOT SEE AT NIGHT WITH ONLY ONE LOW BEAM ON. I HAVE HEARD OF OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR 2013-15 NISSAN ALTIMA HEADLAMPS BEING TOO DIM. (SERIES 5-?) BOUGHT CAR NEW IN 2014 AND HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH LIGHTS FOR THREE YEARS. PRELIMINARY REPORTS INDICATE PLASTIC REFLECTIVE BOWL IN HEADLAMP IS DEFECTIVE BECAUSE MATERIALS DEGRADE AND WEAR OUT OVER TIME. NISSAN HAS REMAINED SILENT AND DEALERSHIP WILL CHECK FOR MOISTURE AND STATE THAT HEADLAMPS ARE WITHING SPECS. THESE HEADLAMPS ARE DEFECTIVE AND THE NTSB SHOULD INVESTIGATE AND ISSUE A RECALL.- BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR DIES. I COULD NOT SEE PEDESTRIANS CROSSING THE ROAD LAST NIGHT WHILE MY LOW BEAMS WERE ON. MY VISION IS FINE AND MY SPEED WAS ONLY 30 MPH ON A CITY STREET, BUT PEDESTRIANS CROSSING THE ROAD WERE NOT SEEN BY MYSELF OR FRONT SEAT PASSENGER UNTIL IT WAS ALMOST TOO LATE. I JUST REPLACED THE HEADLAMPS WITH UPGRADED SYLVANIA BULBS NOT MORE THAN A WEEK AGO. NISSAN SHOULD REPLACE THE FRONT HEADLAMP LENSES ON BOTH THE LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE - WITHOUT CHARGE. A SAFETY RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED.

SHIFTER RELEASE IS STUCK

HELLO ITS SEPTEMBER NOW AND NISSAN HASNT FIXED THE HOOD LATCH RECALL YET CAN'T USE CAR NOW SINCE JUNE BECAUSE OF RECALL THEY TOLD ME IT WONT TAKE LONG BUT ITS TAKING LONG NOW

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE GEAR SHIFTER SEIZED WHILE IN THE PARK POSITION. THE DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO IMMEDIATELY SHIFT OUT OF THE PARK POSITION TO THE DRIVE POSITION. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT YET NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

DRIVING OUR VEHICLE PER USUAL, NO CRASHES, SAFELY MADE IT FROM POINT A TO B. THE NEXT MORNING, THE SENSOR FOR AIR BAGS COMES ON. IT CONTINUES TO STAY THERE WITH NO EXPLANATION FROM GOOGLE OTHER THAN THE SENSOR BEING AN ISSUE.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE HAVING NEVER DRIVEN IT AT NIGHT. UPON MY FIRST TIME DRIVING IT AT NIGHT, I LEARNED THAT THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE WILDLY INEFFECTIVE AND I COULD NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD MORE THAN 15 OR SO FEET IN FRONT OF ME. THIS MADE DRIVING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I WENT TO A DEALER AND HAD THEM REPLACE THE BULBS INSIDE THE ASSEMBLY, BUT SAW NO CHANGE IN THE EFFECTIVENESS. THE INSIDE OF THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS BURNED/DETERIORATED AND NO LONGER PROJECTS THE LIGHT FROM THE BULB. THE ONLY SOLUTION TO ALLOW SAFE DRIVING IN DARK CONDITIONS IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRETY OF THE FAULTY HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY ON BOTH SIDES.

PARTS OF THE SUSPENSION CORRODED AND WHEEL CAME OFF WHILE MY PREGNANT DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING

HEAD LIGHT BEAM IS TOO LOW.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE EXTREMELY DIM! IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITHOUT MY BRIGHTS ON. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFTEY HAZARD FOR ME AND OTHER DRIVERS AS WELL! MY EYESIGHT VISION IS CONSIDERED TO BE BETTER THAN AVERAGE AND EVEN WITH THAT I CAN'T DRIVE AT NIGHT UNLESS I HAVE MY BRIGHTS ON. I HAVE TRIED LED AND HID BULBS WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. PLEASE HELP FIX THIS PROBLEM!

FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG OCS DEFECT. NISSAN HAS DONE A RECALL RELATED TO THIS ISSUE BUT MY VEHICLE VIN NUMBER IS EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE BUT NOT COMING UP IN THE DEALERSHIP SYSTEM FOR THE RECALL. CAMPAIGN #14V138000

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, APPROXIMATELY 3 MILES INTO MY DRIVE, I STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT. WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE, MY CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. AFTER 2-3 SECONDS IT DECIDED TO ACCELERATE. ABOUT ANOTHER HALF MILE DOWN THE ROAD AT THE NEXT STOP LIGHT, IT DID IT AGAIN. EACH TIME, I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BY CARS BEHIND ME TRYING TO GET TO THE INTERSTATE. THE CAR IS NOW AT THE DEALERSHIP BEING LOOKED AT.

MY LOW BEAMS HAVE BEEN SO DIM I CANT SEE WHEN NIGHT DRIVING. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO NISSAN CORPORATION AND THEY DENIED THERE WAS A PROBLEM, THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD THIS COMPLAINT BEFORE EVEN THOUGH IT IS ALL OVER THE WEB. THE DEALERSHIP WERE THE ONE THAT ENCOURAGED ME TO CONTACT NISSAN. THEY SAID IT WOULD BE TOO EXPENSIVE TO FIX. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON MY HIGH BEAMS AT NIGHT FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS BECAUSE I CANT GET IT RESOLVED. I HAVE THE BULBS REPLACED TWICE TO NO AVAIL. APPARENTLY ITS THE REFLECTIVE MATERIAL BEHIND THE BULBS THAT ARE DEFECTIVE. THANK YOU!

LOW BEAMS TOO LOW WITH NEW BULBS. DEALER SAYS I NEED NEW HOUSING

A CLUNKY NOISE STARTED/NOTICED IN RIGHT REAR WHEN DRIVEN OVER BUMPS (E.G. POT HOLES, DIPS IN ROADS, OR ENTRY PARKING LOT CURBS). TOOK OUR 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA INTO AUTO SHOP TO HAVE INSPECTED, WHICH WE HAD LEARNED THE REAR LOWER LINKS ARE RUSTED, AND THE RIGHT SIDE IS CRACKED. WE WERE TOLD IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED TO NOT BE DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR SAFETY CONCERNS. WE WERE THEN INFORMED THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE ON OUR VEHICLE FOR THE SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL. THIS WAS QUITE ALARMING TO LEARN OF THIS RECALL, AND TO KNOW IT IS NOT SAFE TO BE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. WE IMMEDIATELY TOOK OUR VEHICLE TO GANDRUD NISSAN, GREEN BAY WI ONLY TO LEARN THIS SPECIFIC RECALL CAMPAIGN FOR 2013 ALTIMA SEDAN; REAR LOWER LINK (REFERENCE # NTB19-082B, DATE OF ISSUE: DECEMBER 6, 2019, CLASSIFICATION# RA19-002B, CAMPAIGN ID# P9324) DID NOT APPLY TO OUR VIN#. TO LEARN THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE EXACT PROBLEM ON THE EXACT YEAR AND MODEL OF OUR NISSAN ALTIMA WHERE OUR SAFETY IS COMPRISED IF DRIVEN, THEN TO BE TOLD IT DOESN'T APPLY IS VERY ASININE. THIS IS A KNOWN SAFETY DEFECT ON 2013 NISSAN ALTIMAS AND IT SHOULD NOT APPLY ONLY TO A SELECT FEW AS OBVIOUSLY IT IS A PROBLEM AND A VALID SAFETY/DEFECT HERE AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED ACROSS THE BOARD FOR NOT ONLY MY FAMILY'S SAFETY FOR ALL WHOM OWN A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA AND OTHERS TRAVELING ON THE ROAD/INTERSTATES.

MY NISSAN ALTIMA 2013 HEADLIGHTS ARE SO POOR THAT I CANNOT DRIVE IT AT NIGHT. WHEN I HAVE TO DRIVE, I WILL EITHER FOLLOW A CAR IN FRONT OF ME CLOSELY AT NIGHT OR USE HIGH BEAMS. DEGRADATION STARTED TO GET WORSE BY 3 YEAR, I REPLACED WITH BETTER BULBS AND THEN WITH HIDS BUT STILL LIGHTING IS SO POOR THAT I ONLY USE THIS VEHICLE DURING DAY TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, A POPPING SOUND WAS PRESENT COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE, AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT STABLE WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE CONTROL ARM HAD FRACTURED DUE TO RUSTING AND CORROSION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER NISSAN 112, LOCATED AT 730 MEDFORD AVE, PATCHOGUE, NY 11772, WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,000.

PART ERODED AND CAUSED WHEEL TO FALL OFF WHILE DRIVING IN MOTION

THE AIR BAG LIGHT ACTIVATED AND THE ENGINE RPM DROPPED WHILE DRIVING. THE ENGINE ACCELERATOR LOST POWER, THEN PICKED UP SPEED AFTER PUSHING ON THE ACCELERATOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE HEADLIGHTS WERE VERY DIM AND WAS UNABLE TO SEE THE ROADWAY AND VEHICLES AHEAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DICK SMITH NISSAN OF LEXINGTON (5536 SUNSET BLVD, LEXINGTON, SC 29072) WHERE THEY INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURE WAS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,000.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE A PROJECTOR BEAM, AND THROUGH THE YEARS I'VE OWNED THE CAR, THE HEADLIGHTS CONTINUE TO DIM, I HAVE CHANGED THE LIGHT BULBS 3 DIFFERENT TIMES SINCE OWNING THE CAR, NEVER TRULY SOLVING THE PROBLEM. THE HEAT OF THE BULBS CREATE A FILM ON THE PROJECTOR LENS THAT HAMPERS STRONG LIGHT TO GET THROUGH TO THE ROADWAY. THIS IS A DANGEROUS HAZARD THAT IS A DEFECT OF THE AUTOMAKER, AS THIS IS ALL FACTORY EQUIPMENT INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE.

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON ON THE DASHBOARD AND IS STAYING ON. WHEN AN ADULT PASSENGARE SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT DOES NOT TURN OFF. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT A MONTH AGO. I HAVE READ SEVERAL RECALLS FOR AIRBAG SENSOR ISSUE BUT MY CAR IS NOT LISTED. DEALERSHIP IS TELLS ME THAT THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THE ISSUE AND THAT I HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSED AND FIXED. CAR CURRENTLY CANNOT PASS STATED INSPECTION DUE TO THIS.

MY REARWARD CONTROL ARM BROKE ON A BUSY STREET WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK. I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE STEERING AT 30MPH AFTERWARDS. I WAS LUCKY THAT A MECHANIC SHOP WAS AT THE VERY NEXT CORNER. THE MECHANIC LOOKED UNDERNEATH THE CAR AND SAID "UNBELIEVABLE, YOU'RE LUCKY TO BE.... WE'RE GLAD YOU WASN'T ON THE HIGHWAY!) THEN HE JUST SHOOK HIS HEAD, IN DISBELIEF AT THE RUST, BECAUSE THE CONTROL ARM AND THE LINKAGE WAS HELD TOGETHER BY RUST. HE FURTHER ADDED THIS CAR 7 YEARS YOUNG WITH 72,000 MILES, THAT SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED. LASTLY, THAT WAS A VERY SCARY SITUATION, NOT HAVING CONTROL OF YOUR VEHICLE WHEN YOU ARE FACED WITH SEMI TRUCKS IN FRONT AND BEHIND YOU AND YOU'RE NOT ABLE TO PULLOVER YOUR VEHICLE TO SAFETY. IT WAS A BAD EXPERIENCE, THAT HOPEFULLY, NO ONE ELSE HAVE TO ENCOUNTER.

I HAVE RECEIVED NO RESPONSE FROM NISSAN YET RE: THE REMEDY FOR THIS RECALL. MAY 28,2020 MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBERR20A7 NHTSA RECALL NUMBERTBD RECALL STATUSRECALL INCOMPLETE, REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE SUMMARY 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. SAFETY RISK IF THE DRIVER INADVERTENTLY RELEASES THE PRIMARY HOOD LATCH (EX. WHILE REFUELING) OR THE HOOD IS NOT CLOSED PROPERLY, THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH MAY NOT HOLD THE HOOD CLOSED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THE HOOD MAY OPEN WITHOUT WARNING AND OBSTRUCT THE DRIVER S FORWARD VIEW, AND MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF CRASH. REMEDY A REMEDY PLAN IS CURRENTLY UNDER DEVELOPMENT. NISSAN WILL PROVIDE ALL AFFECTED OWNERS WITH AN INTERIM NOTIFICATION THAT REMINDS OWNERS HOW TO PROPERLY MAINTAIN THE LATCH AND ALSO REMINDS THOSE OWNERS TO FULLY CLOSE AND ENGAGE THE PRIMARY HOOD LATCH EACH TIME BEFORE DRIVING THEIR ALTIMA. *JS

THE LOWER CONTROL ARM CORRODED FROM ROAD SALT. THE CONTROL ARMED SNAPPED FROM THE BUSHING WHILE I WAS DRIVING!!. THE CONTROL ARM COMPLETELY SNAPPED FROM THE BUSHING. THERE IS A SERVICE CAMPAIGN FOR THIS, BUT NISSAN CLAIMS MY VIN DOES NOT FALL UNTO THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE IS IN NH, AND HAS BEEN IN THIS STATE THAT USES ROAD SALT SINCE DAY ONE. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY MY VEHICLE DOES IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE SERVICE CAMPAIGN. I AM IN ONE OF THE 22 STATES THAT IS DESIGNATED AS A SALT STATE AND IS MENTIONED IN THE SERVICE CAMPAIGN BULLETIN. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN. I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH WHEN THE CONTROL ARM SNAPPED. MY VEHICLE SPUN 180 DEGREES. IF THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED, THINGS WOULD HAVE BEEN WORSE.

THE CAR HAS A SHUTTER, JERKING, HIGH RPM, LOSS OF POWER, DRIVING THE CAR DOWN THE ROAD AND IT ALL OF A SUDDEN BLASTED UP TO ALMOST 7000 RPMS AND VIOLENTLY JERKING AND SHUTTERING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 75- 80 MILES PER HOUR ALMOST CAUSING ME TO CRASH THE CAR, IT THEN LOST POWER WITH ME PRESSING MY GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, IT'S A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND NISSAN NEEDS TO FIX THIS BEFORE PEOPLE GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR EVEN DIE.

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.

HEADLIGHTS TO CAR BECOME DIM BECAUSE REFLECTIVITY MATERIAL IN LIGHT HOUSING DETERIORATED AND NO LONGER HELPS PROJECT SUFFICIENT SOURCE OF LIGHT ONTO THE ROAD AHEAD. EVEN WITH BRAND NEW, AND APPROPRIATE REPLACEMENT LIGHTBULBS DO NOT PROVIDE ANY SUFFICIENT LIGHT. VERY DANGEROUS AND CANNOT SEE AT DARK AND ALMOST NOT DRIVABLE WITHOUT USING BRIGHTS OPTION. CAN GET STOPPED BY POLICE FOR ASSUMPTION THAT HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT APPROPRIATELY ON FOR THE SAFETY OF THE ROAD FOR THE DRIVER AND OTHER DRIVERS.

THE VEHICLE IS HAVING PROBLEMS GOING INTO GEAR AND SHIFTING CORRECTLY. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BY ME IN 2018. I HAVE A CLEAN TITLE. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM NISSAN. THEY ARE REFUSING TO REPAIR IT BECAUSE THE VIN SHOWS THE VEHICLE WAS SALVAGED IN TWO OTHER STATES. NISSAN SAYS I MUST HAVE A CLEAR TITLE FROM THOSE STATES BEFORE THEY WILL REPAIR THE CAR. I WAS TOLD BY PEOPLE IN BOTH OF THE STATES THAT I CAN NOT GET ANOTHER TITLE WHILE I CURRENTLY HAVE A TITLE. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR SINCE PURCHASE AND AM STILL DRIVING IT. IT HAS UNDER 84,000 MILES WHICH IS WHAT THE LETTER STATES. I READ THAT NISSAN CAN NOT REFUSE TO FIX A SALVAGED VEHICLE IF IT IS BEING DRIVING. PLEASE HELP ME AND GET THEM TO HONOR THIS WARRANTY.

ALL 4 WHEEL BEARINGS FAILED. NOISE LEVEL INCREASED WITH TIME AND EVENTUALLY CHANGED WHEN I WAS CONCERNED WITH MY SAFETY. CONFIRMED BY MECHANIC, THAT ALL 4 BEARINGS WERE BAD. MECHANIC CHANGED BOTH FRONT BEARING FIRST BEFORE CHANGING BACK BEARING TO CONFIRM FAILURE ON BACK WHEEL BEARINGS AS WELL. CHANGED BEARINGS AT ABOUT 110,500 MILES. HAVE LOVED NISSAN BUT I'VE HAD TWO MAJOR SAFETY CONCERNS WITH TWO VEHICLES AS OF LATE

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, ABSOLUTELY NO WARNING AT ALL, HOOD FLIES OPEN SUDDENLY SLAMMING INTO WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING!!! AFTER SCREAMING OF COURSE, TRIED TO KEEP VEHICLE STRAIGHT, SLOWED, PULLED OVER TO RIGHT TO SAFETY. UNBELIEVABLY NO OTHER VEHICLES HIT/INVOLVED, NO CRASH - MY VEHICLE HAS DAMAGE TO HOOD, ROOF, BOTH FRONT FENDERS, INTERIOR OVERHEAD CONTROLS DROPPED OUT OF THE CEILING. NISSAN NOT YET COMMITTING TO PAYING FOR IT 100% !!!!!! EVEN THOUGH A RECALL ON THIS ITEM WAS ISSUED 1 MONTH AGO, AND I FOUND ARTICLES ON THIS PROBLEM WITH THE CAR GOING BACK TO 2014 - AND NISSAN DEALERSHIP JUST HAD MY CAR 4 MONTHS AGO (MARCH) WORKING ON ANOTHER DIFFERENT RECALL !!!!

THE TRUNK LATCH BECAME UNDONE AND LIFTED WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY HEADED HOME. ALL OF MY ITEMS FELL OUT AND I HAD TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO RELATCH.

DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHTS STAY ON NO MATTER IF SOMEONE IS OCCUPYING EITHER SEAT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE DIM AND MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WHILE DRIVING IN LOW LIGHT CONDITIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HUDSON NISSAN OF NORTH CHARLESTON LOCATED AT 7331 RIVERS AVE, NORTH CHARLESTON, SC 29406, WHERE IT WAS STATED THAT FAILURE WAS A KNOWN ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SUBJECTED TO A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 30,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE SUSPENSION ARM FRACTURED CAUSING THE DRIVER TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THE REAR SUSPENSION ARM FAILED DUE TO RUSTING AND CORROSION. THE PASSENGER'S SIDE REAR ARM WAS REPLACED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE REAR ARM WAS ALSO CORRODED AND RUSTED BUT NOT REPLACED. COUNTRY NISSAN (40 RUSSELL STREET, HADLEY, MA 01035) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,000.

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG ISSUE FROM CAMPAIGN ID #R1609 IN 2014 AND AGAIN IN 2016. THE SAME ISSUE IS NOW HAPPENING AGAIN. THIS INCLUDES THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT SHOWING THE AIRBAG IS NOT ACTIVE WHEN AN ADULT IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. THE SEAT BELT LIGHT IS ALSO ON SHOWING THE PASSENGER IS NOT BUCKLED UP WHEN IN FACT THE SEAT BELT IS CONNECTED AND LATCHED. THIS HAPPENING WHEN THE VEHICLE IS BOTH MOVING AND NOT MOVING. NISSAN ISSUED A CONSUMER AFFAIRS CASE NUMBER, BUT IS REFUSING TO FIX THE ISSUE UNDER THE RECALL DUE TO IT BEING FIXED TWICE BEFORE.

VEHICLE STOPPED AUTOMATICALLY (BY ITSELF) WHILE IN MOTION. LUCKY THAT IT WAS IN A PARKING LOT OTHERWISE THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A FATAL ACCIDENT. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER, THEY MENTIONED ITS AN ISSUE WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND WILL NEED TO BE CHANGED. LOOKING IT UP ON GOOGLE MADE ME UNDERSTAND THAT ITS A COMMON ISSUE WITH NISSAN ALTIMA AND NISSAN HAS NOT TAKEN ANY STEPS OR OFFERED ANY HELP TO ITS CUSTOMERS TO SUPPORT FIXING THE ISSUES. ITS A DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN, KINDLY TAKE SOME ACTIONS!

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND MAKES DRIVING AT NIGHT EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS.

I OWN A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA PURCHASED FROM MY FRIEND WHO ORIGINALLY PURCHASED IT FROM A NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THE CAR'S SHOWN TRANSMISSION ISSUES 12TH JULY 2020 WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO STOP FOR A SIGNAL. THE CAR WAS SHUDDERING BEFORE COMING TO A FULL STOP. INITIALLY I THOUGHT IT WAS A BRAKE ISSUE, NAIVELY THINKING GIVEN THAT I EXPERIENCED IT WHEN COMING TO A STOP. BUT WHEN I PRESSED GAS AFTER SIGNAL TURNED GREEN, THE CAR DID NOT ACCELERATE AS IT WOULD DO NORMALLY. I RODE THE VEHICLE FOR ANOTHER 5 MILES THE NEXT DAY AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUED TO GET WORSENED. UPON RESEARCHING AND FINDING THAT IT IS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE, I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR JULY 15TH MORNING. THE CAR DID NOT GO IN REVERSE AT THE BEGINNING AND I HAD TO CHANGE THE PARKING GEAR BEFORE I TRIED TO REVERSE AGAIN. THIS TIME IT SLOWLY MOVED. WHEN MOVING FORWARD IN ROADS, THE CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO GO BEYOND 20 MPH AND THE RPM WOULD GO UP AND DOWN WHEN PRESSING GAS. I BARELY MANAGED TO REACH THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ASSESSED THE VEHICLE TO HAVE TRANSMISSION ISSUES. THEY TOLD THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE ON BUT BASICALLY NON EXISTENT. A FEW TIMES I'VE EVEN PULLED OVER TO CHECK IF THEY BOTH WERE OFF/BURNED OUT... THEY WEREN'T. I HAVE REPLACED BULBS WITH NO CHANGE TO THE BRIGHTNESS I DO OR DO NOT GET. ONLY OPTION CURRENTLY IS TO DRIVE IN THE DARK WITH HIGH BEAMS, POTENTIALLY BLINDING ON COMING TRAFFIC THEN!!! THIS ISSUE IS THE SAME WHETHER DRIVING OR STATIONARY AND HAS BEEN ONGOING WITH NO REMEDY FOUND YET.

REAR LINKS, THE DEALER TOLD ME THE SUSPENSION COULD BREAK AT ANY MOMENT. REPAIR COST ME $440.00 AND THEY REFUSE TO REIMBURSE ME STATING CUTTING OFF RUSTED COMPONENTS WAS NOT RELATED TO THE FIX. CAMPAIGN ID IS P9324

CAR STALLING AT IDLE OR STOPPING. CAR STARTS THEN CUTS OUT, WON'T RUN. CAR HAS BEEN IN SHOP FOR 3 DAYS NOW PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND CAN'T SEEM TO PIN POINT EVEN WITH FIXD OR OTHER DEVICES.

ON THE MORNING OF OCT 25,2018 I ENTERED MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA APPROX 7:15 AM AND PUT VEHICLE IN REVERSE, TRAVELED APPROX 20 FT PUT CAR IN PARK TO RUN IN FOR SOMETHING I HAD FORGOTTEN. I SAFELY EXITED THE VEHICLE , CLOSED THE DOOR AND WALKED THE 20 FT TO MY 3 STEPS AND APPROACHED MY DOOR TO MY HOME AS I STARTED TO UNLOCK THE DOOR I HEARD A POP AND TURNED AROUND AND OBSERVED MY CAR LEAVING THE DRIVEWAY , IT HAD GONE INTO REVERSE AND CROSSED THE STREET WHERE IT STOPPED AGAINST A GRANITE WALL DAMAGING THE TRUNK.

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SUPER DIM WHEN I AM DRIVING AT NIGHT. I HAVE REPLACED MY HEADLIGHTS TWICE NOW TO THE BRIGHTEST LIGHTS YOU CAN BUY. WHEN I DRIVE AT NIGHT I HAVE TO TURN ON MY BRIGHT LIGHTS BECAUSE I AM NOT ABLE TO SEE THE ROAD IN FRONT OF ME WITH THE REGULAR HEADLIGHTS ON. IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT DUE TO THE HEADLIGHTS BEING SO DIM. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR LAST SUMMER.

SUGGESTED THAT I REPLACE CONTROL ARMS ON MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA AT 79,000 MILES. I SAW THERE WAS A "SERVICE ALERT" NOT RECALL BY NISSAN TO REPLACE THESE IN "SALT STATES". I LIVE IN FLORIDA NEAR THE WATER, AND THERE IS WATER IN THE AIR HERE. ARMS ARE CRACKING, CORRODING. WOULD LIKE NISSAN TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT. MAAS BROS. NISSAN IN NEW PORT RICHEY FL SUGGESTED THE REPAIR...OVER $1000.

WHILE DRIVING ON STREET, THE GAS PEDAL WILL NO LONGER PROVIDE POWER TO THE CAR AND BEGIN TO SLOW ITSELF DOWN. I WILL PUSH ON THE BREAKS BRIEFLY AND TRY THE GAS PEDAL TO SEE IF IT WORKS AND IT WILL TAKE A FEW TIMES BEFORE IT DOES. WHILE ON THE FREEWAY THE VEHICLE AGAIN, GAS PEDAL WOULD NO LONGER PROVIDE POWER TO THE CAR AND BEGIN TO SLOW ITSELF DOWN. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED 8 SEPARATE TIMES TO THE CAR. IT WILL WORK FOR A FEW DAYS AND THEN DO IT AGAIN, WITH OUT NOTICE. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON. SECOND ISSUE IS, THE STEERING WHEEL WILL ALSO FEEL EXTREMELY LOOSE, NOT DURING THE SAME TIME BUT WHEN MY SPEED IS OVER 70 MPH. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NOR ANY SAFETY NOTICES WILL GO ON. LASTLY, THE AIR BAG LIGHT WON'T COME OFF. THE GAS PETAL ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN ON JULY 3TH, 2020 AND I DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO GET LOOKED AT. THE DEALER FOR A 5 POINT INSPECTION AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. I CHECK THE NHTSA WEBSITE AND IT SHOWS NO RECALLS DONE. DOES THIS MEAN THEY HAVE NOT BEEN COMPLETED? *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, MY NISSAN ALTIMA STARTING MAKING NOISE FROM THE REAR AND THE CAR FEEL GOING TO THE LEFT BY ITSELF. AFTER I STOPPED I FOUND THE REAR CONTROL ARM WHICH HOLDS THE SPRING PART BROKE APART. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM AND UNSAFE FOR NIGHT DRIVING. *TR

WHEN DRIVING MY CAR IT JERKS, WHEN I'M AT A COMPLETE STOP AND THEN GO TO TAKE OFF THE CAR JERKS . MY CAR HAS THE CVT TRANSMISSION WHICH HAS OR HAD A CLASS ACTION CLAIM AGAINST THEM HOWEVER TO MY UNDERSTANDING I WASN'T ABLE TO QUALIFY FOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BECAUSE MY MILEAGE EXCEEDED WHAT WAS REQUIRED . I DON'T FEEL SAFE TRANSPORTING MY FAMILY IN THIS CAR DUE TO THE HESITATION/ JERKS , HOWEVER I'M NOT FINANCIALLY ABLE TO TAKE THE CAR TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC . I'VE TRIED CONTACTING SOMEONE IN REGARDS TO THE NISSAN ALTIMA CVT SETTLEMENT TO SEE IF THEY COULD DIRECT ME TO SOMEONE WHO COULD HELP RESOLVE THIS ISSUE BUT I'VE HAD NO SUCCESS REACHING ANYONE. I'VE HAD NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE CAR BESIDES THE HESITATION/ JERKING, THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT RANDOMLY COMES ON FOR NO REASON , THE A/C WANT PROPERLY WORK . THIS HAS BEEN A ONGOING PROBLEM FOR AWHILE, WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR ( USED ) I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE JERKING WHEN I FIRST DROVE IT BUT THE SALESMAN SAID THAT ITS NORMAL FOR THAT TYPE TRANSMISSION AND THAT I'D GET USE TO IT HENCE THE FACT I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS PURCHASING A CAR THAT WAS PUTTING MYSELF AND FAMILY IN DANGER . PLEASE HELP

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS IN MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE VERY DIM. I CHANGED THE HEAD LAMPS THINKING THAT MAYBE THE OLD LIGHTS HAD JUST AGED AND LOST BRIGHTNESS. THIS DID NOT MAKE A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN THE BRIGHTNESS. I RESEARCHED ON-LINE AND FOUND MULTIPLE REPORTS THAT FROM 2013-2015 PEOPLE WITH NISSAN ALTIMA'S HAD SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. THE PROBLEM WAS CONCERNING ENOUGH THAT DURING A ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OF MY VEHICLE I ASKED THE DEALER HOW MUCH IT WOULD COST TO REPLACE THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLIES. IT WAS AROUND $1000. YIKES. RECENTLY I HAD A 'NEAR MISS' THAT I PARTIALLY ATTRIBUTE TO THE DIM HEADLAMPS. I WAS DRIVING ON A LOCAL 2 LANE ROAD. THERE WAS A CAR COMING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION ABOUT 50 YARDS AWAY. SUDDENLY A CAR BEHIND THAT CAR PULLED DIRECTLY INTO MY LANE. TO AVOID A COLLISION I IMMEDIATELY PULLED THE WHEEL RIGHT AND WENT INTO A YARD. I THOUGHT MAYBE THE PERSON HAD A HEART ATTACK AND LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR BUT WHEN I LOOKED BACK THE PERSON HAD SWERVED BACK INTO THE CORRECT LANE. I THOUGHT MAYBE MY LIGHTS WERE OFF BUT I CHECKED AND THEY WERE ON. I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR 35 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN BEFORE. COULD HAVE BEEN SOMEBODY TEXTING AND DRIVING? I WOULD BE INTERESTED TO KNOW IF THE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA HAS A HIGHER NIGHT TIME DRIVING ACCIDENT RATE COMPARED TO OTHER SEDANS. REGARDLESS I THINK THESE HEADLAMPS ARE UNSAFE. I'M GOING TO TRY TO FIND A REPLACEMENT HEADLAMP AND DO THE REPAIR MYSELF AS I CAN'T READILY AFFORD THE $1000. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE EVER ENTERED A COMPLAINT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON OPEN HIGHWAYS THE VEHICLE WILL EXPERIENCE A LOSS OF POWER AND ENGINE SHUTS OFF RESULTING IN LOSS OF STEERING AND BREAKING. VEHICLE WILL ALSO EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUES WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY STREETS. WHEN COMING TO A STOP THE VEHICLE WILL LOSE POWER AND BREAKS WILL NOT WORK. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE NOVEMBER 2019

ON FRIDAY 6/26/2020 WHILE DRIVING ON THE MA TURNPIKE I-90 W, SHORTLY BEFORE EXIT 20, THE HOOD OF MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA FLEW ALL THE WAY BACK CRASHING INTO THE WINDSHIELD AND FRONT PORTION OF THE ROOF. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN AND PEEK UNDER THE BOTTOM PORTION OF THE HOOD TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. MY WINDSHIELD WAS CRACKED, BOTH SIDE FENDERS WERE BENT UP/ SLIGHTLY DISPLACED, THE ROOF WAS DENTED, INSIDE THE CAR THE CEILING SPEAKER/ SUNGLASS CONSOLE CAME CRASHING DOWN AND MY HOOD WAS DENTED AND HAVING TROUBLE STAYING SHUT. I MANAGED TO SECURE IT DOWN AND DROVE SLOWLY TO EXIT 20. I IMMEDIATELY STOPPED AT AN AUTO SHOP NEAR BY AND THE OWNERS FIRST WORDS WERE, "LOOKING AT YOUR CAR, I CAN TELL YOU THIS IS EXACTLY HOW PEOPLE GET KILLED IN MOTOR VEHICLE ACCIDENTS". I AM NOT SURPRISED. HAD I NOT BEEN ABLE TO SEE OR SAFELY SLOW DOWN, I MAY BE DEAD. THE SHOP OWNER SHOWED HOW THE SPRAINED HINGES ALLOW THE HOOD TO GO ALL THE WAY BACK CAUSING WINDSHIELD DAMAGE MAINLY DUE TO THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. HE DID SPRAY SOME WD 40 ON THE LATCH TO GET IT TO FUNCTION A LITTLE BETTER; HE STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SAFE AND WOULD NOT RECOMMEND DRIVING IT. THE DAMAGE WAS ESTIMATED AT $4000.

DRIVING AT NIGHT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE WITH MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA SV. WITH THE LOW BEAMS ON YOU CANNOT SEE THE ROAD AHEAD OR ANY OBSTACLES THAT MIGHT BE AHEAD. THESE HEADLIGHT SHOULD BE A RECALL. HORRIBLE DESIGN. *TR

BOTH REAR CONTROL ARMS HAVE CRACKED AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE FIRST WAS AT ABOUT 125,000 MILES AND THE SECOND WAS 137,000 MILES. MANY PEOPLE HAVE TOLD ME THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH 2012-13 NISSAN ALTIMA'S AND SOME HAVE HAD NISSAN REIMBURSE THEM FOR THE COST OF THE REPAIR, WHICH IS QUITE EXPENSIVE. *TR

WHEN I DRIVING 75 MPH ON THE FREEWAY, SUDDENLY MY 2013 ALTIMA TRANSMISSION GEARBOX SLIPPING TO NEUTRAL. I HAD TO TOW THE CAR TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION FOR $3700.00. *TR

NISSAN ALTIMA 2013 LEFT REAR LOWER SUSPENSION CONTROL ARM BROKE OFF WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR SWERVED VIOLENTLY TO THE RIGHT. IT COULD OF ENDED HORRIBLY BUT LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE AND ABSOLUTELY NOT SAFE. NISSAN NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS!! *TR

HEADLIGHTS VERY DIM. REPLACED BULBS MULTIPLE TIMES BUT LIGHTS REALLY NOT VISIBLE WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT OR IN RAIN.

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.

(1) THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT IS FAULTY. IT IS ALWAYS LIT AS 'OFF' EVEN WHEN THERE IS A PASSENGER ON THE SEAT. (2) CAR JERKS WHEN CHANGING GEARS. I WAS REVERSING INTO A PARKING SPACE. WHEN I TRIED CHANGING GEARS FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, THERE WAS A DELAY AND THEN THE CAR JERKED. AS I TRIED TO SLOWLY ACCELERATE, THE CAR WOULD NOT ADVANCE AS IT NORMALLY SHOULD. I THEN PARKED AND THE CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE/ REV WHILE IN PARK. MY CAR IS UP TO DATE ON EVERYTHING. I'M AFRAID THIS COULD HAPPEN ON A BUSY STREET OR HIGHWAY. PLEASE HELP. *TR

INITIALLY, THE VEHICLE TREMBLED AND CUT OFF AT TRAFFIC LIGHT. MECHANIC DISCOVERED THAT IT THREW A CODE WITH FLUID PRESSURE SENSOR ISSUE IN TRANSMISSION. REPLACED TRANSMISSION WITH USED ONE...SAME CODE. REPLACED THAT ONE WITH REBUILT TRANSMISSION, THROWING THE SAME CODE. IF TRYING TO ENTER ROAD, IT MAY FEEL STRONG ENOUGH TO ENTER HIGHWAY, THEN LOSSES THROTTLE RESPONSE. IT MAY CONTINUE WITH ABOUT 20 MPH SPEED. THEN AGAIN, IT MAY START OFF ALRIGHT AND BECOMES OBVIOUS AT SOME SPEEDS THAT THE RPM IS GREATER THAN IT SHOULD BE FOR THE SPEED VEHICLE IS MOVING. NISSAN DEALERSHIP HAS HAD VEHICLE FOR WELL OVER 2 WEEKS AND HAVE NO ANSWERS. ASKED THEM TO CHECK ELECTRICAL AND THE COMPUTER, STILL NO ANSWERS AND HARDLY ANY COMMUNICATIONS AT ALL. IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS ARE A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES, BUT AFTER THE ISSUES EXPERIENCED, THIS COULD BE A POSSIBLE COMPUTER ISSUE. EITHER WAY IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND A LOT OF MONEY SPENT WITH NO RESULTS. *TR

WITHOUT WARNING MY CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING. IT DIED AT IN INTERSECTION AND HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP. THE PROBLEM STARTED ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CAR DIED AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. CAR HAS 123000 MILES WITH NEVER AN ISSUE WITH CVT.. DEALER TOLD US IT WILL COST 4,000 DOLLARS TO FIX. TRANSMISSION SHOULDN'T FAIL AT 123 000 MILES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT GEARS, THERE WAS A LAG IN BETWEEN WHEN THE VEHICLE RESPONDED AND THE RPM AT THE TIME THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED TO THE NEXT GEAR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WITH THE VEHICLE ON CRUISE CONTROL THE VEHICLE REVVED UP WITH THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS PUSH TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE DRIVING, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED TO THE FLOORBOARD HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 96,045.

LIGHTING ON THE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA IS A SAFETY RISK AND POTENTIAL LIABILITY WAITING TO HAPPEN. THE VISIBILITY WITH THE STOCK LIGHTS WILL LIMIT YOUR VISIBILITY AND PUTS YOU AND PASSENGERS AT RISK. THIS HAS TO BE CORRECTED AND TAKEN SERIOUSLY BY NISSAN. THE LIGHT THAT IS ILLUMINATING HAS TO BE OUT OF CODE FOR A LEGAL ACCEPTABLE VEHICLE. *TR

TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR. *TR

THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS DO NOT PROJECT LIGHT OUT AT NIGHT. EVEN AFTER REPLACING WITH THE SAME TYPE BULB OR EVEN HIGH DEFINITION BULBS, NONE OF THEM PROJECT LIGHT. I CANNOT SEE WHILE DRIVING WITH THE LOW BEAMS. I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAM LIGHTS ON AT NIGHT. *TR

FRONT HEADLIGHTS DO NOT PROJECT OUT ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO FARTHER WHEN DRIVING CAUSING A HUGE RISK OF AN ACCIDENT ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW THE ROADS , YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO SEE WHAT IS AHEAD OF YOU UNLIKE OTHER VEHICLES DO, AND WHEN IT RAINS IT LOOKS LIKE YOU DON'T HAVE YOUR HEAD LIGHTS ON SO YOU I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON AND WHEN PASSING OTHER VEHICLES I HAVE TO SHUT THE HIGH BEAMS OFF AND I CANNOT SEE THE ROAD , I HAVE GONE OFF THE ROAD AND ALMOST CRASHED DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE , THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM FOR THIS I HAVE OWNED A 2011 NISSAN ALTIMA AND DID NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM WHAT SO EVER , THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ,

CAR STALLED IN MIDDLE OF ROAD WHILE TURNING LEFT. STARTED AGAIN, BUT DIED WHEN PUT IN GEAR. PUSHED IT OUT OF THE ROAD AFTER TRAFFIC CLEARED. ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE IN FOR REPAIRS NEXT DAY, BUT IT SPUTTERED AND DIED HALFWAY THERE. HAD IT TOWED TO DEALER. DEALER SAYS $4300.00 FOR TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. DEALER SAID HE WAS UNAWARE OF THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM AND THAT THE 3 OUTSTANDING RECALLS WERE FOR MINOR SAFETY ADJUSTMENTS. CLEARLY LYING TO ME GIVEN THE WEALTH OF DATA REGARDING SIMILAR TRANSMISSION FAILURES FOR THIS MODEL/YEAR I HAVE FOUND ONLINE. AT NO POINT WAS THERE A WARNING/HAZARD/ENGINE LIGHT ON. VERY VERY DANGEROUS DEFECT AND SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO RECALL. *TR

WARNING LIGHT SHOWS FAULTY AIRBAG ON DRIVER'S SIDE, VERIFIED BY DEALER. PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG REPAIRED UNDER RECALL. DRIVER'S SIDE CODE APPEARED RIGHT AFTER THE FIRST REPAIR WAS MADE BUT WAS ADVISED THIS IS NOT COVERED UNDER FIRST RECALL. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE 2 YEARS AGO, AND I'M NOT PAYING UPWARDS OF $5,000 FOR YOUR ELECTRICAL FAILURE. *TR

CANT GET CAR TO GO FROM PUT TO DRIVE ALWAYS GOTTA KEEP RESTARTING I THINK ITS SHIFT LOCK I KEEP PUTTING FOOT ON BRAKE AND HAVE TOO DO IT 3 OR 4 TIMES VERY STRESSFUL. *TR

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT INDICATES FAULTY ELECTRONICS. BEGAN ABOUT 50,000 MILES. THIS IS NOT DUE TO MISUSE. IT'S COMPANION TO EARLIER RECALL FOR A FAULTY AIRBAG, WHICH WAS CORRECTED. REPORTED TO DEALER. COST ESTIMATE TO REPAIR FROM $800 TO $5,000 DEPENDING THE LEVEL OF DEFECT. OWNER BELIEVES THIS SHOULD BE NISSAN'S RESPONSIBILITY, AS IT'S NOT DUE TO NEGLIGENCE. *TR

HEAD LIGHTS VERY DIM CAN HARDLY SEE FAR DOWN ROAD. *TR

YOU CAN NOT USE REGULAR LIGHTS TO SEE WITH THIS CAR AT NIGHT. YOU MAY GET A GOOD FOOT OF LIGHTING IN FRONT OF THE CAR. VERY DANGEROUS. YOU COULD BE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND BE SURPRISED BY A CURB OR GOING DOWN A STREET AT NIGHT WITH NO LIGHTING AROUND YOU AND HIT SOMETHING BC YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING. THE BRIGHTS WORK WONDERS BUT I CAN'T JUST GO AROUND BLINDING PEOPLE... *TR

THE DRIVERS' SIDE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE BROKE AND WILL NO LONGER OPEN THE DOOR FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE. *TR

I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN AND I HEARD A POP AND PULLED OVER AND AS I PUT IT IN PARK MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON SO I WENT OUT TO INSPECT WHAT HAPPENED, CHECKED THE FRONT NORMAL, WHEN TO THE REAR NOTICED MY DRIVER SIDE WHEEL IS TURNED IN, WENT UNDER THE CAR TO LOOK AND NOTICED MY REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM RUSTED AND SNAPPED OFF THE BOLT THAT CONNECTS IT TO THE BODY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH ON A WINDY DAY, THE HOOD ERRONEOUSLY OPENED CRASHING INTO THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND SEVERELY DAMAGING THE HOOD AND THE ROOF OF THE VEHICLE. DURING THE INCIDENT, THE DRIVER SUSTAINED A BRUISED RIGHT LEG AND CONTACT FROM GLASS PIECES. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND LATER TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALER COLLINS NISSAN (4142 BARDSTOWN RD, LOUISVILLE, KY) WHERE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN SEARCH INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V029000 (STRUCTURE). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND A CASE WAS OPENED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 190,000.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR AND MERGING ONTO A BUSY INTERSTATE, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL, AND BLIND SPOT MONITORING ERROR LIGHTS ALL CAME ON THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE RPM GAUGE WOULD GO UP AND THE CAR WOULD TRY TO GO, BUT IT JUST WOULDN'T. I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY A SEMI TRUCK BECAUSE MY CAR WASN'T ABLE TO GO OR MOVE OUT OF THE WAY. I LEFT IT IN A SHOP FOR OVER A WEEK AND APPARENTLY IT'S SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND SPEED SENSORS. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND ALL THEY WOULD TELL ME WAS THAT THEY DID AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THOSE TRANSMISSIONS UP TO 130,000 MILES, HOWEVER MY CAR WAS ROUGHLY 2,000 MILES OVER THIS AND WAS NOT COVERED BY THAT WARRANTY. THEY TOLD ME ALL I COULD DO WAS REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AND THAT WAS GOING TO COST ME ROUGHLY $4,000. I'M ALMOST SCARED TO DRIVE IT ANYWHERE THERE'S LOTS OF TRAFFIC OR FAST MOVING TRAFFIC FOR FEAR OF SOMEONE RUNNING INTO ME. ALSO WHEN ALL OF THOSE DASH LIGHTS COME ON, THE TRACTION CONTROL ISN'T WORKING AND I'VE HAD TO DRIVE IN THE RAIN SEVERAL TIMES. I JUST BELIEVE IT'S OVERALL DANGEROUS AND NISSAN ISN'T DOING ANYTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM FOR CARS THAT HAVE SOMEHOW MANAGED TO MAKE IT OVER 130,000 MILES. I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO'VE HAD SIMILAR THINGS HAPPEN WITH THEIR NISSAN CAR THAT HAS THIS TRANSMISSION. I DO BELIEVE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT MALFUNCTIONS AT ANY GIVEN TIME JUST RANDOMLY. I CAN BE DRIVING AND IT'S FINE ONE MINUTE, THE NEXT THING I KNOW ALL OF THESE DASH LIGHTS ARE LIT UP AND THE CAR WON'T ACCELERATE.

HEADLIGHTS VERY DIM, CANT SEE AT NIGHT UNLESS YOU USE THE BRIGHTS, VERY DANGEROUS, AND PASSENGER AIRBAG REMAINS OFF, COMMON PROBLEM ON A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA.

THE VEHICLE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT MOVE FROM THE PARK (P) POSITION WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN SHIFT LOCK ISSUE BASED ON SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE AS WELL AS NISSAN OWNER TESTIMONIES. THE FAULT AS IT WAS EXPLAINED BY A NISSAN TECHNICIAN WAS THE SHIFTER SHORTS-OUT THE SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID WHICH ENGAGES THE UNLOCK FOR THE SHIFTER WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED. COST TO REPAIR THE ISSUE IS ROUGHLY $800 BY REPLACING THE SHIFT HANDLE ASSEMBLY AND THIS "REPAIR" IS DUE TO A FAILURE OF A LOW COST SOLENOID SWITCH. THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT BE ACCOUNTABLE OF FAULTY DESIGN. ACCORDING TO NISSAN, THIS IS NOT A SAFETY OR DESIGN ISSUE, BUT WEAR AND TEAR OF THE VEHICLE. HOPEFULLY NHTSA WILL REVIEW THE FACTS OF THESE COMMON OCCURRENCES AND DETERMINE IF IT IS INDEED WORTHY OF RECALL REPAIR.

TERRIBLE HEADLIGHTS. I HAVE ALREADY CHANGED COUPLE LOW BEAM BULB IN ORDER TO INCREASE NIGHT VISION, BUT THE RESULT DIDN'T CHANGE MUCH. I DO NOT SEE ANY ROADS CLEARLY WHEN I DRIVE NIGHT TIME SO IT'S NOT SAFE AT ALL.

UPON STARTING THE CAR, THE GEAR SHIFTER WILL NOT MOVE OUT OF PARK. THE SHIFT LOCK SEEMS TO BE STUCK. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF POSTS ONLINE ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR AND OTHER YEARS OF THIS MODEL AND MAKE.

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

VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN DRIVING, STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT LONGER MOVE. HAD TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART TO GET IT TO MOVE AND EVEN THEN IT TOOK A SECOND FOR IT TO START MOVING. NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE GIVEN AND NO PREVIOUS ISSUES. TOOK IT TO GET A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AND WAS TOLD THAT THOSE VEHICLES HAVE SHOWN TRANSMISSION ISSUES. CALLED NISSAN AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE UNABLE TO ASSIST. *TR

MY HEADLIGHTS HAVE DETERIORATED OVER TIME AND NOW I CANNOT SEE AT NIGHT UNLESS I AM USING MY BRIGHT LIGHTS. I WORK AT NIGHT A LOT AND IT'S VERY DANGEROUS AND I'M VERY SCARED.

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.

COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN THE MIDDLE OF A MAJOR INTERSECTION WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON (UNTIL AFTER THE FACT) OR PRIOR WARNING.

THE TRANSMISSION IN MY VEHICLE SHUDDERS BETWEEN 1000 AND 2000 RPM. ALSO, IT WILL DO THE SAME SHUDDER AT HIGHWAY SPEED SUDDEN ACCELERATION. WORSE THE WARMER THE TRANSMISSION GETS.

I RECEIVED A SERVICE RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL FROM NISSAN TOWARD THE END OF 2019 REGARDING THE REAR LOWER LINK ON OUR 2013 ALTIMA. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AND TOOK THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN ALERTING ME THAT IN ORDER TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE REAR LOWER LINK AND PERFORM THE REPAIR, THEY WOULD HAVE TO FIRST REMOVE BOLTS, NUTS, AND OTHER PARTS, WHICH COULD INADVERTENTLY BECOME DAMAGED. THE TECHNICIAN WENT ON TO SAY THESE PARTS WERE NOT COVERED AND THAT I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL ASSOCIATED COSTS. I ALSO LEARNED THE FRAME AND SUSPENSION HAD EXCESSIVE CORROSION, WHICH WAS SUPRISING. WE BOUGHT THE CAR FROM A PREVIOUS OWNER IN DELAWARE, AND IT WAS ONLY IN THE NORTHERN CLIMATE FOR LESS THAN 2 YEARS, AND DOWN IN FLORIDA SINCE. I CONTACTED THE ESCALATION HOTLINE AT NISSAN AND REQUESTED ASSISTANCE TO COVER THESE COSTS. MY REQUEST WAS DENIED. MY BELIEF IS THAT NISSAN PRODUCED THE 2013 ALTIMA WITH INFERIOR PARTS AND COMPONENTS, AND SHOULD BE ON THE HOOK FOR ALL COSTS IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THIS SERVICE RECALL. FAILURE TO COMPLETE THIS REPAIR COULD JEAPARDISE OUR ABILITY TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE AND OVERALL SAFETY. CAN YOU PLEASE ASSIST?

PURCHASED A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA,07/2013 ON FEBRUARY 2014. ALL SEEMED TO BE FINE, ONE YEAR AFTER PURCHASETHE LOW BEAM LIGHTS WERE VERY DIM .IT WAS DIFFICULT DRIVING WITHOUT USING THE HIGH BEAM WHEN L COULD. THE FORUM'S L VIEWED, STATED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2013-2018. VISIT THE DEALER TODAY FOR RECALLS AND THEY TOLD ME THAT ISSUE IS NOT COVER BY WARRANTY.

WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC, THE CAR BEGAN JERKING BACK AND FORTH BEFORE COMPLETELY SHUTTING OFF. I WAS WITH MY SMALL CHILD IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHENEVER I'D PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE OR DRIVE. I'M ONE OF HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AFFECTED BY THIS ISSUE, WHICH IS KNOWN TO SPECIFICALLY AFFECT 2013 MODELS. MY CHILD AND I NEARLY GOT IN AN ACCIDENT WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR I HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION 2 TIMES IN ONE YEAR, THE SUSPENSION IS GIVING UP AND THE DRIVER SEAT IS ALWAYS BRAKING

LOWBEAMS HAVE DIMMED TO THE POINT WHERE I CAN NOT DRIVE AT NIGHT UNLESS I USE HIGHBEAMS. LOWBEAMS ARE LIKE DRIVING WITH PARKING LIGHTS ONLY

WHENEVER I DRIVE MY CAR ON A CITY STREET AND MY SPEED IS 40MPH OR LESS IT STARTS TO JERK REAL BAD AND THE LOWER THE SPEED THE MORE IT JERKS. WHEN I DOWN SHIFT TO 1 OR 2 WITH THE COLUMN HANDLE THE JERKING IS NOT AS BAD. THIS ACTION BEGAN ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO.THERE IS 70.000 MLS ON THE CAR.

LAST WEEK I HAD A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF A REAR CONTROL ARM WHILE DRIVING 50 MILES AN HOUR COSTING ME 700 DOLLARS IN REPAIR WITH A USED PART AS AN EMERGENCY FIX. REAR PASSENGER SIDE. TODAY AFTER HAVING BY CAR BACK THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR CONTROL ARM SNAPPED THIS TIME WHILE DRIVING ON A ROAD IN TOWN AT 25 MILES AN HOUR. THESE CARS ARE CERTAIN TO GET SOMEONE KILLED IF NISSAN DOESN'T ADDRESS THEM. I AM FURIOUS AND SCARED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN MADE. I NEED SOMETHING DONE ABOUT THIS.

HEAD LIGHTS JUST DIMMED UNABLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT

AIR BAG HAS HAD RECALLS TAKEN CARE OF BUT NOW HAS AN AIRBAG LIGHT ON. ALSOHDADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM WHEN DRIVING. NEW BULBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED.

THE FRONT LOW BEAM REGULAR HEADLIGHTS ARE WAY TOO DIM NOW, THERE'S BARELY ANY ILLUMINATION. MY WIFE WAS JUST PULLED OVER LAST NIGHT AS THE OFFICER THOUGHT SHE HAD HER LIGHTS OFF. IT'S BEEN THIS WAY FOR A WHILE AND SO MANY PEOPLE ONLINE ARE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE BULBS THEMSELVES ARE JUST FINE. IT APPEARS TO BE THE REFLECTIVE COATING IN THE PROJECTOR HOUSING THAT BURNS OFF AND THEN IT BASICALLY STOPS PROJECTING ANY LIGHT OUT. VERY DANGEROUS AND NOW GETTING PULLED OVER. THIS REALLY SHOULD BE A RECALL AS YOU CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. LOTS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS HERE: HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/NISSAN/ALTIMA/2013/LIGHTS/DIM_LOW_BEAMS.SHTML

LIGHTING THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AT NIGHT HARD TO SEE WITHOUT THE BRIGHTS ON. WAS INFORMED THAT REFLECTIVE MATERIAL DETERIORATION IS THE CAUSE. NO RECALL FROM THE MANUFACTURER. TRANSMISSION THE CVT TRANSMISSION HAS GONE OUT ON ME AT 67,000 AND AGAIN AT ABOUT 186000 MILES. NO COMPENSATION OR RECALL FROM THE MANUFACTURER ON THIS EITHER. POOR QUALITY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE HEADLAMPS FAILED TO ADEQUATELY PROVIDE ILLUMINATION FOR SAFE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SHEEHY NISSAN OF MANASSAS LOCATED AT (9010 LIBERIA AVE, MANASSAS, VA 20110). THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT BOTH HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE PROJECTOR BOWL FADING. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 74,254.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM PASSENGERS DO NOT WANT TO RIDE IN MY CAR BECAUSE THEY FEAR FOR THEIR SAFETY. I CANNOT SEE MORE THAN A FEW FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR UNLESS I HAVE HIGH BEAMS ON. THIS IS THE CASE ON COUNTRY ROADS AT NIGHT. IN THE CITY, I MUST COMPLETELY RELY ON STREET LIGHTS AS THEY OVERWHELM THE HEADLIGHTS OF MY CAR.

THE TRANSMISSION IN MY VEHICLE SHUDDERS BETWEEN 1000 AND 2000 RPM. IT BEHAVES WORSE AT 1500RPM AND WHEN THE WEATHER IS HOT. I HAVE TO STEP ON THE GAS AND ACCELERATE QUICKLY TO ESCAPE OR AVOID THE SHUDDER OR HAVE TO COMPLETELY LET OFF THE GAS. IT HAS SHUDDERED SO STRONGLY THAT I HAVE FEARED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE CAR WHILE IN MOTION. I ALSO FEAR I WILL BE IN A SITUATION WHERE RAPID ACCELERATION OR DECELERATION WOULD BE DANGEROUS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REVERSING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED RESTARTED THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED AN ADDITIONAL 5 TIMES BEFORE THE VEHICLE STARTED TO OPERATE AS INTENDED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL DAYS LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. CANNON NISSAN OF JACKSON LOCATED AT (905 I 20 FRONTAGE RD, JACKSON, MS 39204, 601-360-7490) CONFIRMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. A CASE WAS FILED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 156,749.

THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE DIMMED AND CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS KNOWN BY NISSAN AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS ISSUES REPORTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET. THIS MUST BE CORRECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. I OWN 2 OF THESE VEHICLES AND THEY BOTH HAVE THE SAME ISSUES WITH POOR HEADLIGHT PROJECTION! THE HEADLIGHT REFLECTOR DETERIORATION IS SO BAD THAT I CAN SEE THE SHADOW OF MY CAR IN MY HEADLIGHT BEAMS FROM THE CAR'S HEADLIGHTS BEHIND ME. I DO NOT FEEL THAT THE OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES SHOULD BEAR THE COST FOR REPLACEMENT OF OEM PARTS AND/OR AFTERMARKET PARTS DUE TO THIS ISSUE BEING THE #2 COMPLAINT ON NHTSA WEBSITE BEHIND AIRBAGS AND AMOUNTS TO 15% OF ALL COMPLAINTS FILED AGAINST THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD ISSUE RECALL IMMEDIATELY FOR INSPECTION AND REPAIR/REPLACEMENT RESOLUTION BY CERTIFIED DEALER.

MY TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED TWICE WITHIN 6 MONTHS AND MY CAR TURNS OFF ON ITS OWN WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT.

PURCHASED MY CAR IN 2014 WITH 36000 MILES. AROUND 55,000 MILES THE GEAR SHIFTER COMPLETELY WENT OUT. NOW I'M AT 107,000 MILES AND MY CAR IS STALLING WHEN STOPPED. THE CAR IS NOT READING ANYTHING ON THE DIAGNOSTIC TESTS AT THE DEALERSHIP AND NO ONE IS ABLE TO TELL ME WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. I LIVE IN A HIGH TRAFFIC AREA SO THIS IS A VERY BIG DEAL.

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING VERY POOR LIGHTING FROM MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA HEADLAMPS. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, LIGHTING IS TERRIBLE AND VERY UNSAFE. I HAVE MENTIONED TO DEALER MANY TIMES, AND THEY HAVE TOLD ME THERE IS NO CURRENT RECALL. I'M SHOCKED, AS I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE, AND THE NHTSB HAS NOT RECALLED THESE VEHICLES FOR SAFETY CONCERNS. WHY IS NISSAN DOING NOTHING???

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE DIMMED OVER TIME TO THE POINT THAT THEY DO NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION TO ALLOW FOR NIGHT DRIVING.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, HEAR A POP AND GET OUT TO LOOK, REAR PASSENGER CONTROL ARM CORRODED TO THE POINT IT IS BROKEN RIGHT OFF THE CENTER TO WHICH IT WAS ATTACHED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS WERE INADEQUATE FOR SAFE DRIVING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HI BEAM HEADLAMP WAS USED FOR NIGHTTIME DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PINE BELT NISSAN OF KEYPORT DEALER, (111 NJ-36, KEYPORT, NJ 07735) AND WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLIGHT REFLECTOR FAILED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HEADLAMP HOUSING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 53,839.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS SO DIM THAT THEY PROVIDE ALMOST NO LIGHT TO SEE THE ROAD. I'VE SEE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FROM MANY NISSAN ALTIMA 2013-15 OWNERS. THIS IS UNSAFE AND NISSAN WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE THIS. IT HAD BEEN GETTING WORSE OVER THE PAST YEAR. I REPLACED BULBS BUT THEY DID NO GOOD. PROBLEM IS IN HEADLIGHT REFLECTOR HOUSING WHICH REFLECTS BULB'S LIGHT. LINING DEGRADES/BURNS OFF AND LIGHT THEN GETS ABSORBED, NOT REFLECTED.
