2014 Nissan Altima 4 DR FWD

Lights are very dimmed at night even the high beam. Can barely see at night when driving. Lights need to be changed to a brighter set ASAP before an accident or death happens.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while his mother was driving in stop and go traffic, the vehicle stalled without warning. Due to the failure, the contact had the vehicle towed to his home. Upon doing research online, the contact discovered a technique that would cause the vehicle to reset itself once the failure occurred. The contact eventually took the vehicle to a dealer; however, the dealer was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The contact also found information that the failure with his vehicle could be linked to the camshaft sensor or crankshaft sensor. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 95,000. The VIN was not available.

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 MPH, a grinding sound was present coming from the rear of the vehicle. While driving over a bump in the road, the rear of the vehicle collapsed. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the rear suspension had detached, and the front and rear axles were faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. Additionally, the front low-beam headlights had stopped operating and the bulbs were replaced but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not yet contacted regarding the failure. The failure mileage was 150,000

WITH HEADLIGHTS ON DIM IT LOOKS AS IF THE LIGHTS ARE NOT ON AT ALL VERY DIM TO NO VISIBILTY. HAVE TO DRIVE WITH LIGHTS ON BRIGHT.

My hood slammed open when I was driving on the parkway. I entered the parkway ( Route 28) in Pittsburgh, Pa during rush hour. Three to four cars entered the road seconds before me. While I attempted to gain speed to keep up with the rush hour traffic and avoid being hit by the on coming traffic my car hood slammed open. The auto body shop stated the fenders on both side need to be repaired or replaced. There may be damage to the hood, unknown until repair is performed. I had the hood latched recalled correction done to my car in late August or early September 2021. The latch is more prone to disengage after the repair. Nissan chooses not to make any repairs to my car.

Front lights very dim, cracked light covers

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 65 MPH, the steering wheel was shaking violently. In addition, there was an abnormal clicking noise from the tires. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the failure was undetermined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 350,000. The VIN was invalid.

Headlights are very dim to the point it's a safety issue. Only getting worse over time and it looks like I have no headlights on . Have to drive with brights on to see road and other cars can see me .

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

Lowbeam headlight projector malfunction. Even with replacement, low beam lights are not lighting the road.

I am trying to ship my vehicle from Grafenwoehr, Germany (military base) to Colorado, United States. I have the safety recall for my hood but none of the dealerships near me, can help me fix the issue so I can ship my vehicle back to the states. I was told I need some documentation saying this. So I can ship my vehicle. Can i get help please.

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

The contact's girlfriend owns a 2014 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while his girlfriend was driving approximately 60 MPH, the steering wheel was uncontrollable. The steering wheel failed to correctly move left or right. The contact stated that the steering wheel turned a full 360 degrees. The driver was able to safely pull over to the shoulder. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer where it was diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the control arms on the driver’s and passenger’s side had fractured. Additionally, two bolts needed to be sheared off. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that the owner never received a recall notification. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and agreed to cover half the cost of the repairs. The contact is concerned about receiving reimbursement for repairs. The failure mileage was approximately 132,000.

The contact owns a 2014 NISSAN Altima. The contact stated that the airbag warning light was illuminated. The dealer was contacted and stated that the airbag harness under the driver’s seat had malfunctioned. The airbag and seat had not been replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The contact was informed that the repair was not covered under the warranty. The approximate failure mileage was 41,000.

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

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

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

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

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

Head lights are not visible when on low beam at night

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The vehicle does not detect the front passenger.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED RANDOM ISSUES WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP.

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

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR YESTERDAY, THE LOWER CONTROL ARM SNAPPED. LUCKILY I WAS JUST ABOUT TO GET ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT HAPPENED. I WAS COMING UP THE RAMP TO GET TO THE FREE WAY WHICH WAS A CURVE AND I HEARD A NOISE AND BRIEFLY LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE UNTIL I STOPPED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 49,270.

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

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

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE THAT REAR DRIVER'S SIDE SUSPENSION SPRING AND AXLE WERE SEVERELY RUSTED, CAUSING THE TIRE TO TURN INWARDS WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT REGAINED CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND DROVE 5 MPH TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY AND PARKED AT HIS PARENT'S RESIDENCE. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE FAILURE THAT THE REAR AXLE AND SPRING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

WAS BACKING OUT DRIVEWAY, HEARD NOISE, STOPOED, GOT OUT OF VEHICLE, FOUND REAR PASSENGER WHEEL CAVED IN

REAR PASSENGER CONTROL ARM BROKE AT ATTACHMENT TO CAR BODY. ONE HALF OF THE WELD SHOWS CRACK AND PRIOR CORROSION. I WAS DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND NOTICED HANDLING ISSUES AND CAR SAGGING ON PASSENGER SIDE. I PULLED OFF TO A SIDE STREET AND DROVE LOCAL STREETS THE 4 MILES TO MY HOME. CONTROL ARM BROKE IN MY DRIVEWAY AS I WAS BACKING UP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE RPM DECREASED. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WAS SHAKING AND SHUT-OFF WITH SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND OPERATED AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO FONTANA NISSAN (16444 S. HIGHLAND AVE, FONTANA, CA 92336, (909) 574-2288) WHO DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE AND CONFIRMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHCILE WAS NOT REPAIRED DUE TO HAVING A SALVAGE TITLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE DEALERS WERE INDEPENDENTLY OWNED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON CONSISTENTLY.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 89,000.

THE PASSENGER'S AIRBAG OFF LIGHT IS ON WHILE HAVING AN ADULT PASSENGER ON THE SEAT EIGHTER THE CAR IS MOVING OR IS PARKED. MEANING THE PASSENGER'S AIRBAG IS NOT WORKING

I FEEL LIKE THE RECALL ON MY CAR HAS BEEN OPEN FOR TOO LONG AND NO REMEDY IS AVAILABLE YET TO FIX THE ISSUE.

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

TL* THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER-IN-LAW OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING DOWN A SIDE STREET SHE HEARD A POPPING NOISE AND HAD TROUBLE STEERING THE VEHICLE. AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT FLASHED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND WHILE ATTEMPTING TO REVERSE, THE REAR WHEEL COLLAPSED UNDER THE WEIGHT OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT IT WAS THE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM THAT WAS FRACTURED. NISSAN 112 (730 MEDFORD AVE, PATCHOGUE, NY 11772, (631) 417-3236) STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,000.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I BOUGHT A 2014 NISSAN IN 2017 ALTIMA MAKE: I HAD TAKEN THE CAR IN BECAUSE IT WOULD DELAY IN REVERSE. I HAVE THE RECEIPT ON THE DATE I WENT IN, 08/27/2018 ; THEY NOTE ON IT "COULD NOT DUPLICATE CUSTOMER CONCERN. THERE WAS A SECOND TIME I TOOK CAR IN FOR THE SAME REASONS, THEY COULD NOT FIND RECEIPT. NOW LOOKING BACK ON, 08/20/19 I HAD PROBLEMS WITH GETTING PARK IN GEAR, IT WOULD GET STUCK, THE INVOICE SAYS INTERNAL FAILURE TO INTERNSHIP SOLENOLD REPLACED INTERLOCK SHIFT. I FOUND ON THIS INVOICE IS WHEN I TOLD THEM THERE WAS A DELAY, NOTE: NO PROBLEM FOUND AT THIS TIME", I RECEIVED A LATE NOTE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE CVT TRANSMISSION, MY CAR BROKE DOWN ON 08/06/2020 ED HICK AGREES TO PAY 1/2 OF BILL $4,1000 IN ANY AVANT I WAS TOLD THE RECALL CAVED HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH FIXING TRAIN, I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASE THE CAR THAT THE RECALL REPROGRAMMING WOULD AFFECT THE TRAIN IF NOT CAUGHT IN TIME. I CAN NOT PAY AND SHOULD NOT PAY FOR A FACTORY RECALL ON THIS DAMAGE DONE. I JUST LOST MY JOB, AND ELDERLY, AM HANDICAP. CASE NUMBER [XXX], CAMPAIGN NUMBER PC490.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, WHEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

MY HEADLIGHTS GO REALLY DIM I CANNOT SEE AT NIGHT 2 FEET IN FRONT OF ME ON LOW BEAM ,I HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY HIGH BEAM LIGHT ON ,THE DEALER SAID IT WILL COST OVER A $1000.00 TO GET THIS REPAIRED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO RESET THE SENSOR SEVERAL TIMES. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE FAULKNER NISSAN MECHANICSBURG LOCATED AT 6627 CARLISLE PIKE, MECHANICSBURG, PA 17050, WHERE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS PERFORMED HOWEVER, THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000.*DT*JB

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE STOPPED SHE WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, AS A RESULT SHE WAS PUSHED INTO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE STOPPED IN FRONT OF HER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED MUSCLE STRAIN, LEG AND NECK INJURIES WHILE THE PASSENGER SUSTAINED BACK AND NECK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE OCCUPANTS OF THE OTHER VEHICLE ALSO SUSTAINED INJURIES HOWEVER, SHE WAS UNAWARE OF THEIR INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER DEEMED THE VEHICLE A TOTAL LOSS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT AUTO BODY FACILITY. THE CONTACT STATED NO LOCAL DEALER WAS CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED AS SHE RESEARCHED ON-LINE AND FOUND SEVERAL RECALLS THAT INVOLVED THE AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOYING HOWEVER HER VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALLS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 140,000.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

FUEL PUMP STOP WORKING

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

HOOD LATCH IS HARD LOCK. AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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