2006 Nissan Altima UNKNOWN OR OTHER

NISSAN NEEDS TO TAKE OWNERSHIP FOR THEIR HORRIBLE VCT TRANSMISSIONS. I HAVE AN ALTIMA AND TRANSMISSION JUST WENT OUT ON ME. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND THERE IS THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS WITH TYE SAME ISSUE!!! THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON CVT TRANSMISSIONS AS THEY ARENT MENT TO BE PUT ON CARS AND NISSAN KNOWS THIS! NOW IM BEING TOLD IT COST THOUSANDS TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. FOR WHAT FOR ANOTHER CRAPPY TRANSMISSION WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS. RECALL NOW!!!

TOOK MY CAR FOR INSPECTION WAS INFORMED THE FLOORBOARDS ARE ROTTED AND CANNOT PASS INSPECTION UNTIL THEY ARE REPLACED.

DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR RUSTING OUT~YOU CAN SEE UNDERNEATH THE CAR THRU THE GAS LATCH AREA. I JUST NOTICED IT WHEN I GOT IN AND THE FLOOR FELT FLEXIBLE, WHEN I LOOKED, THE FLOOR'S GONE NEAR THE LEFT REAR SIDE OF THE DRIVER'S AREA.

CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR / CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSORS ...I'M TERRIFIED TO DRIVE AND ESPECIALLY ON A HIGHWAYS... MANUFACTURER FAILURE...

WAS TOLD NEED TO REPLACE CRANK AND CAM SENSOR. FOUND ARTICLE ON WEBSITE OF A RECALL. WHY IS IT ONLY CERTAIN CARS. WHY IS MY CAR NOT ELIGIBLE? NISSAN DEALER SAID WOULD COST $825.00 PLUS TAX THAT'S INSANE. PLEASE HELP ME!

THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR FOR SOME 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA'S. MY CAR HAS CONTINUALLY NOT BEEN INCLUDED IN THIS LIST BUT I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS EQUIPMENT. 2 YEARS AGO I REPLACED THAT SENSOR AND RESET THE CRANKSHAFT POS AND REPROGRAMED THE ECM. NOW AGAIN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT IS THE SAME SENSOR THAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM AND YET I AM STILL NOT ON THE RECALL LIST FOR THIS DEFECT. I AM SURE THAT OTHER INDIVIDUALS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME THING. MY CAR ALSO CONSUMES OIL AT AN IRREGULAR PACE, WHICH IS ANOTHER RECALL, YET MY CAR IS NOT ON THAT RECALL EITHER.

WHEN DRIVING MY CAR CLOSE 65 MILES THERE IS LIKE A SMALL CUT OF OF POWER THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON , I PUT THE OBD SCANNER AND FOUND THAT THE EMC, ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE NEEDS REPROGRAMED, AND THE CPS CRANSHAFT POSITION SENSOR IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY... I READ THAT SOME NISSAN WHERE UNDER RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE BUT DEALER DO NOT WANT TO TAKE CARE OF MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY SAID IS NOT UNDER RECALL.I READ THAT THIS ISSUE COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE CAR CAN TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING.

I HAVE AN 6" WIDE X 15" LONG HOLE IN THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY CAR. (IN THE FLOOR BOARD) MY FRIEND ALMOST PUT HER FOOT THROUGH IT. I AM A WIDOW AND THE MECHANIC DISCOVERED IT WHEN DOING AN OIL CHANGE. TRADE IN VALUE BAD AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. DEALER SENT ME TO NISSAN AND THEY GAVE ME A CASE #, BUT QUESTIONING WHY THERE WASN'T A RECALL.

AT AROUND 65K MY TRANSMISSION STARTED TO FAIL EVEN THOUGH I HAD REPLACED THE FLUID TWICE BY THAT MILEAGE AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER I HAD AND EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT THE DEALER SAID IS WAS A BROKEN MOTOR MOUNT BUT IT WAS NOT TO TOO SOON AFTER THAT MY TRANSMISSION STARTED TO BANG ALOT AND KEEP READING ONLINE IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR TRANSMISSION AND NOW AROUND 90K THE TRANSMISSION FINALLY FAILED.

DRIVER AND PASSENGER FLOOR PANELS RUSTED OUT. SAFETY ISSUE. CAR WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION. RESEARCH INDICATES THIS IS COMMON PROBLEM...WELL KNOWN TO NISSAN. NISSAN MANAGEMENT UNRESPONSIVE AND UNCOOPERATIVE.

THE FLOORBOARDS ARE RUSTING. PIECES HAVE BEEN FALLING FROM BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER'S SIDE.

CAR WILL SLOW CRANK RANDOMLY, IT DOES IT COMPLETELY INTERMITTENT, EVEN WHEN ITS COLD OR HOT, THE FUEL PUMP WORKS PERFECTLY, THE STARTER IS NEW, IT HAS NEW CRANK AND CAM SENSORS, THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR ARE IN WORKING FINE, THE SPARK PLUGS AND IGNITION COILS ARE BRAND NEW, IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE I FIRST BOUGHT IT, IT HAD 148,000 MILES, SOMETIMES I HAD TO PUSH THE KEY TWICE OR MORE, THE ENGINE WILL CRANK WITH THE STARTER BUT WILL SIMPLY NOT TURN ON, AFTER I DO IT TWICE OR MORE THEN IT STARTS, I HAVE TRIED EVERY TRICK IN THE BOOK TO SEE IF IT STOPS HAPPENING RANDOMLY, I JUST WANT THIS CAR TO WORK FINE OR JUST NOT WORK AT ALL, I DONT LIKE THIS GAME. I HAVE HAD OVER THREE PROFESSIONAL MECHANICS TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND NOBODY KNOWS WHAT IT IS, IT JUST DOES IT WHENEVER IT WANTS. NO MATTER THE WEATHER OR ENGINE TEMPERATURE OR VOLTAGE OR FUEL PRESSURE,

THIS IS THE SECOND NISSAN ALTIMA THAT HAS BEEN ON WITH ME AND MY FAMILY THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAS GONE OUT AND COSTING US A FORTUNE THE 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA AND NOW THIS 2006 I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT I GOT THE GREEN LIGHT TO GO WHEN I STEPPED ON THE GAS ALL THE SUDDEN THERE WAS A POP WITH SOME GRINDING AND THE CAR WOULD NOT GO

NISSAN MECHANIC THE 5 SPEED AUTO IN THE 3.5L ALTIMA IS COMPLETEY DIFFERENT AND IS KNOWN TO HAVE VALVE BODY ISSUES FROM THE BUSHES DISTORTING IN THE SOLENOIDS AND CAUSING THEM TO HAND UP AND CAUSE HARD SHIFTS

I PURCHASED MY 2006 ALTIMA 2.5 SL USED NOTICED THAT IT WAS LOOSING OIL EXTREMELY FAST YET WAS NOT LEAKING FROM ANYWHERE OR LEAVING OIL MARKS AFTER BEING PARKED IMMEDIATELY AFTER A COMPLETE OIL CHANGE AND NEW FILTER IT WOULD BE BLACK AND BURNED BY THE TIME I GOT HOME AND RECENTLY WHILE DRIVING FROM FL TO SOUTH CAROLINA MY ENGINE CAUGHT ON FIRE ON THE INTERSTATE WHILE IN MOTION

MY 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA FAILED THE YEARLY MASSACHUSETTS INSPECTION. THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOORBOARD WAS RUSTED AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED TO PASS INSPECTION. IN SPEAKING WITH THE MECHANIC, THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR ALTIMAS. I WANTED TO ADD MY COMPLAINT TO THE 100S OF OTHERS WHO HAVE HAD TO REPAIR THIS VEHICLE DEFECT WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR HELP FROM NISSAN. THANK GOODNESS FOR AN ALERT MECHANIC!

CRANKSHIFT SENSOR FAILURE CAUSES CAR TO JERK AND THEN SHUT DOWN WITHOUT ANY NOTICE AN WARNING. SEVERAL 100S OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND 2006 MODELS HAD RECALLS BUT SPECIAL EDITIONS WERE NOT INCLUDED. IT IS SO UNSAFE AND VARIOUS PEOPLE HAVE GOTTEN CLOSE TO HORRIBLE ACCIDENTS DUE TO IT. SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE!

MELTING DASHBOARD. IT HINDERING ME TO SEE THE ROAD CLEARLY

FLOOR PANEL ON DRIVER AND PASSENGER HAVE COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH. I'M CONCERNED FOR MY SON'S SAFETY AS WELL AS MINE.

TRANSMISSION TOTALLY GAVE OUT ON A BUSY HIGHWAY CAUSING A MAJOR TRAFFIC HAZARD. LUCKILY, THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT.

THE FLOOR BOARDS ARE RUSTING OUT ON OUR CAR. YOU CAN SEE THE CARPET PADDING FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE. THIS IS OCCURRING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AS WELL. WE ALWAYS MAINTAIN OUR VEHICLES AND THIS SITUATION IS VERY ALARMING TO US.

I GOT A NISSAN ALTIMA AND THE FLOOR RUSTED OUT DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS SIDE I CAN SEE FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR THE CARPET THATS NOT SAFE

THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOORBOARD IS COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH. THE AREA IS APPROXIMATELY 5IN BY 12IN AND IT SEEMS THAT IT US DUE TO IMPROPER DRAINAGE FROM THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. SOUND DAMPENING MATERIAL IS APPLIED ABOVE A DRAIN HOLE NOT ALLOWING WATER TO DRAIN OUT. NOW I HAVE CONCERN WITH THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE VEHICLE SINCE THE BODY IS PART OF THE FRAME. ...UPDATED 09/28/15 *BF UPDATED 10/31/2017*CN

NISSAN IS FULLY AWARE THAT MANY OF THEIR MAKES FOR SEVERAL YEARS HAVE TRANSMISSION ISSUES THAT ARE DIRECTLY RELATED TO THEM, AND NOT THE CUSTOMER. THERE IS (WAS??) A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST THEM THAT MET MY ISSUES TO A T. THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN HESITATING WHEN GOING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, AND THEN JERKING VERY HARD INTO GEAR. NOW IT ROUGH SHIFTS BETWEEN GEARS, AND WHEN DRIVING IF I SLOW DOWN AND BEGIN TO ACCELERATE AGAIN IT HESITATES AND ALMOST STOPS, THEN THE RPM GOES UP HIGH AND JERKS VERY HARD INTO GEAR. THE ISSUE IS INCREASINGLY GETTING WORSE. NISSAN SHOULD HAVE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND PAY FOR THEIR ISSUE, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS EFFECTING HUNDREDS OF CUSTOMERS. I HAVE A WARRANTY BUT THEY REFUSE TO HELP ME UNLESS MY TRANSMISSION IS IN PIECES ON THE MECHANICS FLOOR SO THEY CAN LOOK AT IT. THE WARRANTY COMPANY SAYS IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO FIND THE MECHANIC, AUTHORIZE THE TEAR DOWN, AND THEN OF COURSE PAY THE BILL IF THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT. THIS ISSUE IS NOT MY FAULT AND I SHOULD NOT BE PENALIZED FOR SOMETHING I DID NOT DO. I CHOSE NISSAN EXPECTING QUALITY AND SO THAT IS NOT WHAT I HAVE RECEIVED. I PAID MY CAR OFF IN A YEAR (AND IT WASN'T CHEAP!) SO I CANNOT JUST GO TRADE IT IN, AND I DO NOT HAVE MONEY TO PAY ANOTHER CAR NOTE. I EXPECTED AT LEAST 10 YEARS OUT OF THE CAR, AND SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET FAR MORE THAN 10 YEARS OUT OF IT. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. MY CAR IS BREAKING DOWN IN FRONT OF MY EYES WITH LESS THAN 115,000 MILES ON IT AND THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A QUALITY CAR. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE THE ONE TO PAY THESE REPAIRS. WE ARE VICTIMS AND WE DESERVE TO BE COMPENSATED, NOT BE PUNISHED.

THE FLOORBOARDS OF THE CAR HAS A HOLE. *TR
