2006 Nissan Altima UNKNOWN OR OTHER

2006 NISSAN ALTIMA SL 3.5 V6, CANNOT READ CODES FROM ECU. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, CAR WILL TAKE OFF SLOW AND BUILD UP SPEED ALMOST LIKE IT IS HAVING A POWER SURGE. DURING DRIVING THE GAS PEDAL HAS TO BE PRESSES ALL THE WAY DOWN TO GAIN SPEED AT DANGEROUSLY SLOW RATES, AT TIMES AT A FULL STOP THE CAR TAKES A DANGEROUS AMOUNT OF TIME TO BUILD UP SPEED. *TR

THE FLOOR BOARD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS RUSTED OUT. ABOUT THE SIZE OF 12"X12".I HAVE CHECKED ON LINE AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH 2002-2006 NISSAN ALTIMA. THIS IS A UNSAFE ISSUE. WHY HAS NISSAN NOT CORRECTED THIS PROBLEM?THIS WAS A ISSUE YEARS AGO WITH CARS. THE METAL MUST BE OF VERY POOR QUALITY.

MY CAR HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING PULLING SINCE LAST YEAR. I FAMILY MEMBER INFORMED ME THAT THE PROBLEM SOUNDED LIKE THE TRANSMISSION WAS GOING BAD AND THAT I NEEDED TO HAVE THE CAR CHECKED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND PAID FOR A DIAGMOSTIC INPSECTION. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP REPORTED NO PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE (WHICH I HAD TO HAVE REPLACED WHEN THE CAR WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW) AND REPORTED NO PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. I WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED THE BRAKES AND ROTORS REPLACED IN THE FRONT. I GOT THE ISSUE TAKEN CARE OF AND THE PROBLEM STILLS OCCURS WITH MY CAR AND IT STILL JERKS/PULLS WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN DRIVE AND AM ON THE ROAD. I THINK THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP IS BEING TRUTHFUL AND HONEST ABOUT THE SITUATION. WHEN I WAS THERE ONE OF THE SALES REPS ASKED ME IF I WANTED TO TRADE MY CAR IN. I COULD HEAR THE OTHER SALESPERSON/MECHANIC TALK TO ANOTHER PERSON ABOUT MY CAR AND POSSIBLE OPEN RECALLS, BUT NEVER ADDRESSED THIS WITH ME. I CONTACTED THE 1800 NUMBER REGARDING A RECALL ON MY CAR. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS STILL A RECALL OPEN AND I EXPLAINED THE PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR. THE REP TOLD ME TO TAKE MY CARE IN AND GET IT CHECKED AGAIN. WHEN I CONTACTED THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THE PERSON WAS SHORT PATIENCE WITH ME AND TOLD ME THAT I DID NOT NEED TO GET IT CHECKED BECAUSE IT WAS ALREADY REPLACED IN 2006. I FEEL LIKE I AM DRIVING A CAR THAT WILL EVENTUALLY BREAK DOWN OR FALL APART WHILE I AM DRIVING. I HAVE PUT SEVERAL TIRES ON MY CAR AND IT SEEMS LIKE I STILL HEAR A STRANGE NOISE COMING FROM THE WHEELS EVEN WHEN I HAVE PLACED NEW ROTORS AND BRAKES ON THE FRONT AND BACK WHEELS.

FLOOR PANS ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER ARE RUSTED WITH LARGE PERFORATION HOLES INTO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. DO NOT KNOW IF VEHICLE IS SAFE TO OPERATE SINCE WATER VISIBLY ENTER THE CAR WHEN IT RAINS, AND NISSAN CANNOT ASSURE THAT THE SEAT ATTACHED TO THE CAR ARE NOT COMPROMISED BY THE RUSTING. *JS

SEVERE RUSTING AROUND THE PLUG HOLE AREA UNDER BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVERS FLOOR BOARD

CLUTCH PEDAL SINKS TO THE FLOOR BOARD OF MY NISSAN ALTIMA 3.5 SE, THE CLUTCH FLUID IS AT FULL CAPACITY AND WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION AT A RED LIGHT OR EVEN AT A STILL MOTION THE CLUTCH GOES COMPLETELY DOWN OR OUT...I HAVE HAD MY FLUIDS CHECKED AND IT IS FULL....THIS AS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE CAR AT 52,000 MILES AND CONTINUES TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM TO THIS VERY DAY.....NISSIAN 3.5 CARS ARE NOTORIOUS FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT NISSAN FAILS TO RECOGNIZE THIS AS A RECALL PROBLEM....BUT EVERYONE IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM 3.5 - 5 (SPEEDS) WITH THIS CAR AND THIS MODEL.....THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY WHEN I AM IN SLOWED TRAFFIC AND CANNOT SHIFT PROPERLY...THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO SERIOUSLY BE ADDRESSED AND THE PROBLEM RESOLVED....FATALITIES SHOULD NOT BE THEIR REASON TO ENFORCE THIS ISSUE.

GAS DOOR DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. THE HINGES ARE BENT. HAVE NOTICED THIS ON MANY NISSAN ALTIMAS. FORCING THE DOOR CLOSED, FOR SAFETY REASONS, HAS CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE SURROUNDING THE GAS DOOR. THE PAINT IS CHIPPING AND WILL SOON BEGIN TO RUST AROUND THIS AREA.

I PURCHASED A NEW 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA ON MAY 27, 2006. I CHOOSE NISSAN SINCE I WAS A CURRENT OWNER AND ENJOYED THE PERFORMANCE AND RELIABILITY OF MY VEHICLE. AFTER TAKING DELIVERY OF THE VEHICLE, I READ IN THE PAPER ON JUNE 2, 2006, THAT NISSAN HAD ORDERED DEALERS TO DISCONTINUE SELLING CERTAIN MODELS OF ALTIMAS AND SENTRA SE-RS FOR WHAT WAS DESCRIBED AS AN OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM. THE ALTIMAS AFFECTED WERE VIN NUMBERS IN THE RANGE OF 1N4AL11D16-C174681 THROUGH 1N4AL11D16-C231328, WHICH APPLIES TO MY VEHICLE. *JB
