2015 Nissan Altima UNKNOWN OR OTHER

THE AC COMPRESSOR IS FAILING AND CAUSING THE 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA AIR CONDITIONER TO NOT COOL PROPERLY.

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR MATERIAL HAS CAME APART AROUND MIRROR AND THE VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN PLACE WHEN TRY TO PUSH UP. IT FALLS BACK DOWN IN THE WAY

MY CAR STARTED THIS ISSUE AROUND 84,000 MILES. ONCE A MONTH IT LOOSES POWER USUALLY AFTER I'M STOPPED. I TRY TO TAKE OFF IT SOMETIMES HESITATES FOR A FEW SECONDS AND TAKES OFF SLOWLY A LACK OF ABOUT 75% POWER. I HAD A COUPLE CLOSE CALLS IN THE CITY. I GET OUT THERE AND THEN IT ACTS UP WHILE I'M TRYING TO PULL OUT IN TRAFFIC. IT'S SEEMS TO NOT SHIFT GEARS ALSO THE ENGINE WILL JUST SCREAM. I ALSO LEARNED BY SHUTTING CAR OFF PROBLEM GOES AWAY LIKE OTHER PEOPLES CARS.

TAKATA RECALL WHILE DRIVING CAR STALLS FIRST THEN TURNS OFF COMPLETELY WHICH COULD CAUSE MAJOR ACCIDENT ON HIGHWAY IT'S A PUSH START VEHICLE CAR WAS IN MOTION HAS HAPPENED ON CITY STREET AND WHILE EXITING HIGHWAY

THE GEAR SHIFTER IN MY AUTOMATIC CAR WILL NOT RELEASE. IN ORDER TO DRIVE. I MUST STICK AN OBJECT IN THE RELEASE HOLE TO SHIFT MY CAR INTO REVERSE, NEUTRAL, OR DRIVE. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH MANY NISSANS.

I BELIEVE MY AIRBAGS MAY HAVE SPONTANEOUSLY DEPLOYED WHILE DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT AT AROUND 45 - 50 MPH, SHOCKING AND BLINDING ME, CAUSING ME TO VEER OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CRASHING INTO A DITCH, TOTALING MY CAR. ALL I REMEMBER WAS ONE SECOND, I WAS DRIVING AND THE NEXT, I COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING AND WAS BRAKING & SCREAMING, ON A WILD, BUMPY RIDE, NOT KNOWING WHERE TO STEER BECAUSE I COULDN'T SEE PAST THE AIRBAGS AND DUST/CHEMICALS/SMOKE.

THE DUNLOP TIRES WHICH CAME WITH THE NEW 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA I BOUGHT IN JANUARY OF 2015 WERE MANUFACTURED IN 2013. SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR, I WAS LOOSING AIR IN ALL FOUR (4) TIRES. I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM. SO I WENT AND I BOUGHT AN AIR PUMP WHICH I USED ALMOST EVERY WEEK TO FILL IN THE AIR I WAS LOSING. RECENTLY, WHILE I WAS DRIVING WITH MY GRANDCHILDREN, ONE OF THE TIRES LOST 15 POINTS PRESSURE WITHIN ONE MILE ON THE ROAD. IT WAS A ZIPLINE FRACTURE ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE TIRES FOR ME. I CONTACTED BOTH DUNLOP AND NISSAN AND BOTH KEPT ON THROWING THE PROBLEM ON EACH OTHER. DUNLOP OFFERED TO GIVE ME A REPLACEMENT CREDIT TO BE USED FOR DUNLOP/GOODYEAR TIRES WHICH I DO NOT TRUST. NISSAN REFUSED TO HEAR MY COMPLAINT BECAUSE THEY DO NOT WARRANT TIRES EVEN THOUGH I BOUGHT THE DUNLOP TIRES WITH THE NEW VEHICLES. I DO NOT TRUST EITHER OF THE TWO COMPANIES BECAUSE THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. THANK GOD THAT WE DID NOT SUSTAIN ANY INJURY OR DEATH BUT THE 2013 TIRES WERE REALLY DEFECTIVE SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR.

MY NISSAN ALTIMA CVT TRANSMISSION IS GOING UP AGAIN. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME AND NISSAN HAD MY CAR FOR ALMOST THREE WEEKS AND I HAD TO CALL AND SEE A STATUS AND IF I DIDN'T I STILL WOULDN'T OF GOT A CALL ABOUT IT. THEY TOLD ME THEY DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE ON THE CONTROL MODULE OF THE TRANSMISSION AND THERE IS A NOTE IN MY ACCOUNT THAT I CAN BRING IT UP AS MANY TIMES AS I NEED TO WITH NO CHARGE TO ME. ARE YOU KIDDING ME RED FLAG, AND LETS NOT FORGET THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THEY HAD MY VEHICLE ON THE SAME PROBLEM AND THIS IS A RED FLAG FOR NOT KNOWING HOW MANY MORE TIMES THIS WILL HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE BUT IT WILL HAPPEN. THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS A VEHICLE WITH NO RELIABILITY WITH IT, COSTS YOU AN ARM AND LEG, AND THE CAR IS CRAP. THEY ALL NEED TO BE RECALLED. THE VEHICLE MAKES A WHINEY NOSE GOING DOWN OR UP HILLS, THE RPM'S GET STUCK IN 2ND GEAR AND DON'T LET YOU GO ABOVE 20MPH UNLESS YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF AND THEN STOMP IT TO THE FLOOR TO KICK IT OUT OF GEAR, AND THE CAR TRIES TO OVERDUE YOUR DRIVING TO DO ITS OWN. THE TRANSMISSION IS CRAP AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AFTER ALL THE REVIEWS OUT THERE SAYING THE SAME THING FROM 2008 TO AT LEAST 2015 OR 2016.

TRANSMISSION REVVING OUT, SLIPPING AND SHUDDERING. VEHICLE IS ONLY 67000 MILES.

'TAKATA RECALL' MY ENGINE MOUNTS ARE BROKEN AT ONLY 40,000 MILES AND WAS TOLD IT'S A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE NISSAN ALTIMA I HAD DIFFERENT TYPE OF CARS WITH WAY MORE MILES AND NEVER HAD THAT PROBLEM AND FIND IT STRANGE IT HAPPENS WITH THE NISSAN ALTIMA WITH LOW MILEAGE

ROLLAWAY ACCIDENT IN PARKING LOT ON SMALL INCLINE. $ 4500 IN DAMAGE. NO INJURIES. THANK GOD . AT SOFTBALL GAME. EXITED CAR AND DID NOT HEAR ANY WARNING. WALKED BESIDE AND THEN BEHIND CAR AND DID NOT NOTICE ANY MOVEMENT. ABOUT 20 SECONDS LATER IT CRASHED INTO A HIGHBOY TRAILER.

TRANSMISSION FAILURE AT 63,000 MILES. VEHICLE STATIONARY AT STOP LIGHT AND WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN GAS PEDAL PRESSED. NO WARNINGS OR ENGINE LIGHTS WERE LIT. THE TRANSMISSION JUST FAILS WITHOUT WARNING.

TAKING CAR IN AGAIN 3RD TIME / SOUR SMELL FROM VENTS. HAPPENS EVERY TIME I WASH CAR OR IT RAINS. VERY STRONG, FIRST DAY SMELLS LIKE WET DOG, DAY 2SMELLS SOUR.

WATER LEAKING INTO CABIN AT FIREWALL - PREVIOUSLY NOTICED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER FLOOR MAT AND CARPETING WAS DAMP ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. APPLYING WATER TO THE WINDSHIELD RESULTED IN WATER DRIPPING DOWN THE INSIDE FIREWALL AND DRIPPING ONTO THE FLOOR MAT AND CARPETING. CURRENTLY AT DEALER BEING EVALUATED IF THIS IS A FAILED PART OR A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. SINCE CAR CABINS ARE NOT DESIGNED TO BE IN A WET ENVIRONMENT, THIS MAY LEAD TO ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND MOLD/MILDEW GROWTH WITHIN THE CAR'S INTERIOR. HAVE ATTEMPTED TO CALL NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS DEPT TODAY 1ST ATTEMPT RECEIVED MESSAGE TO CALL BACK DURING NORMAL WORKING HOURS, ALTHOUGH IS WAS, AND 2ND TIME WAS ON HOLD FOR OVER 26 MINUTES WITH NO ANSWER.

EXPLODING SUNROOF. WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY THE SUNROOF EXPLODED EMITTING A LOUD NOISE AND RAINING GLASS SHARDS AND SPLINTERS INTO THE THE VEHICLE. THESE SHARDS AND GLASS SPLINTERS COVERED THE DRIVER, AND VEHICLE OCCUPANTS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND IN THE REAR SEAT OF THE VEHICLE. THE PERSON SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT HAD GLASS IN HER EYE AND HAIR. THE PASSENGER IN THE REAR SEAT HAD GLASS SLIVERS IN HER HAIR AND ALL OVER HER CLOTHING. NOTE: THE PHOTOS SHOW THE INTERIOR SHADE CLOSED. AT THE TIME OF THE EXPLOSION THE INTERIOR SHADE WAS OPEN ALLOWING THE GLASS TO BLOW INTO THE CAR INTERIOR. NEW ENGLAND CABLE NEWS HAD A "CONSUMER ALERT" SEGMENT ON EXPLODING SUNROOFS AIR DATE APRIL 12TH, 2016. IN THERE SEGMENT THEY INDICATED THE NHTSA WAS INVESTIGATING KIA AND OTHER CAR MANUFACTURES FOR SUNROOF DEFECTS. SAFETY GLASS "THE SAME MATERIAL USED IN AUTO WINDSHIELDS" SHOULD BE USED IN ALL FUTURE SUNROOF DESIGNS. THIS WOULD PREVENT GLASS FORM ENTERING THE VEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF A FAILURE/DEFECT.

I PURCHASED MY CAR FROM CANNON NISSAN IN JACKSON, MS. I TOOK MY CAR TO GREAT RIVER NISSAN IN NATCHEZ, MS WHERE I LIVE AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WON'T FIX MY RECALLS SINCE I DIDN'T PURCHASE MY CAR FROM THEM, SO I'M STILL RIDING AROUND WITH THE RECALLS UNTIL I CAN GET TO JACKSON, MS WHICH IS 2.5 HOURS AWAY.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH THE AC IN THE ON POSITION, THE AC WOULD START TO EMIT A STRONG CHEMICAL TOXIC ODOR. THE ODOR IS SO STRONG , IT STAYS ON YOUR CLOTHING UNTIL THEY ARE WASHED. THE ODOR ALSO CAUSING SHORTNESS OF BREATH, WATER EYES, AND MAKES YOUR CHEST HURT AFTER IT HAS BEEN INHALED FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. YOU CAN ALSO TASTE THE ODOR IN YOUR MOUTH AFTER YOU HAVE BEEN OUT OF THE VEHICLE FOR SOME TIME. YOU COULD SMELL THE ODOR OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE AS WELL DUE TO HOW STRONG IT IS.THE STRONG TOXIC CHEMICAL ODOR WAS MAKING MY 1 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER COUGH AND SNEEZE WHEN SHE WAS IN THE CAR. SHE WOULD JUST KEEP RUBBING HER EYES. THE CAR WAS TAKEN IN TO THE DEALERSHIP IN WHICH THEY HAD IT FOR OVER 2 WEEKS. WHEN I GOT THE CAR BACK, THEY SAID THE ODOR WAS NORMAL AND WOULD GO AWAY. I CALL NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND EXPLAINED THE HEALTH CONCERNS FOR MY CHILD IN HALING THE ODOR COMING FROM THE AC VENTS. I RECEIVED A CALL BACK FROM NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY STATED THE STRONG ODOR WAS DUE TO THE PLASTIC IN THE CAR AND BECAUSE THE CAR IS BLACK IN COLOR. THE CAR ONLY HAS 4,500 MILES ON IT AND SHOULD NOT BE EMITTING ANY TOXIC CHEMICAL ODOR FROM THE AC VENTS. INHALING THE CHEMICAL THAT IS COMING FROM THE AC UNIT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS SIDE EFFECTS FOR MY CHILDREN AND THAT IS VERY CONCERNING. THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY PLASTIC THAT WOULD GIVE OFF THIS TYPE OF ODOR IN ANY VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER AGREED THAT THE CAR SHOULD NOT SMELL THE WAY IT DOES, BUT NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS CLAIMS IT IS NORMAL AND WILL EVENTUALLY GO AWAY. THE ISSUE ALSO CAUSES MY FRONT WINDSHIELD TO FOG UP SO BAD IN THE MORNING YOU CANNOT SEE ON COMING TRAFFIC. THE DEFROST, AC, OR HAVING THE WINDOWS DOWN DOES NOT HELP WITH THE FOG ISSUE ON THE WINDSHIELD. HOW CAN THIS BE NORMAL FOR A BRAND NEW CAR WITH 4,500 MILES? DEALER HAS HAD THE CAR FOR 3 WEEKS AND STILL CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM.

GEAR SHIFT KEEPS SLIDING BETWEEN REVERSE AND NEUTRAL WITHOUT BEING TOUCHED.

WHEN MY WIFE HAS HER HEARING AID ON THE KEYLESS CAR WILL NOT START. WHEN I AM PICKING HER UP AND SHE GETS IN THE CAR, THE DASH FLASHES A WARNING AND SAYS NO KEY DETECTED. THE CAR REMAINS ON BUT WILL NOT RESTART IN AN EMERGENCY UNLESS SHE GETS OUT. I AM A SENIOR, HER HEARING AID IS MODERN AND CONFORMS TO FCC REG. HELP.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WHEN I NOTICED A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR. WHEN I PULLED OVER, I LIFTED THE CARPET AND NOTICED A HOLE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOORBOARD. THE HOLE IS AS BIG AS MY FOOT. JUST YESTERDAY MY WIFE WAS SEATING THERE AND FELT THE FLOOR SOFT, BUT WE DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT. WE WERE SO LUCKY SINCE THIS A VERY SERIOUS MATTER THAT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN SOMETHING VERY VERY BAD. I WENT OVER TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND NOTICED THAT THE FLOOR IS SO RUSTY THAT I COULD PUT MY FOOT RIGHT THROUGH. I DON'T FEEL IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE IN ITS CURRENT CONDITION AND IT'S THE ONLY VEHICLE WE OWN.

AIR CONDITIONER MAKING A LOUD NOISE SEEMS TO BE COMING FROM FAN ON PASSENGER SIDE. SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IS STUCK IN IT AND CLICKS FASTER AS FAN TURNS UP.

THIS VEHICLE WAS LEASED NEW ON DEC, 2, 2014 FROM A NISSAN DEALER LOCATED IN WASHINGTON, PA. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD A BURNING AND SULFUR ODOR SINCE DAY ONE AND THE SULFUR ODOR IS GETTING WORSE. THE VEHICLE IS RATED FOR 38 MPG HIGHWAY AND 27 MPH CITY. THE VEHICLE MPG IS GROWING WORSE AND IT GETS ABOUT 24 MPG AS I WRITE THIS. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR SERVICE TO DETERMINE THESE ISSUES AND I WAS TOLD NO PROBLEMS FOUND. IT WAS SUGGESTED TO ME TO TRY OTHER FUEL STATIONS AND TO KEEP IN MIND GAS IS NOW CHEAP! CONTACTED NISSAN USA SEVERAL TIMES WHERE YOU SPEAK TO PEOPLE WHO REFUSE TO GIVE OUT THEIR LAST NAME AND I WAS TOLD THE SELLING DEALER WILL NOT LOOK AT THE CAR ANY FURTHER SO I ASK FOR NISSAN TO BUY IT BACK. AS OF 2/6/15 I AM WAITING FOR A RESPONSE FROM NISSAN USA. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH ANOTHER NISSAN DEALER AND THEY HAVE AGREED TO INVESTIGATE MY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SULFUR ODOR AND VERY POOR MPG. MY WIFE HAS A ALLERGY TO SULFUR AND CANNOT DRIVE THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE SHE NEVER KNOWS WHEN THE SULFUR ODOR WILL FILL THE CABIN AND SHE THEN HAS TO PULL OFF THE ROAD, OPEN THE WINDOWS. THE LAST TIME SHE WAS OPERATING THE VEHICLE ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY (01/31/15) THE CAR BEGIN EMITTING A VERY STRONG SULFUR ODOR AND SHE HAD TO PULL OFF AND GET OUT OF THE CAR. THE SELLING DEALER REFUSES TO PROVIDE SERVICE OR ASSIST IN ANY MANNER. NISSAN USA IS BACKING UP THE DEALER. THIS IS HOW NISSAN TREATS AN CUSTOMER WHO HAS OWNED/LEASED 8 NISSAN VEHICLES! *JS

THE GAS TANK HAD A LEAK AT THE TOP OF THE TANK UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE, SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY SAID THIS WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE VEHICLE WARRANTY. THE DEALERSHIP IS CLAIMING THAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN A ROCK THAT CAUSED THE TINY HOLE. THE HOLE IS LOCATED AT THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK, AT AN ANGLE, JUST BELOW THE SEAL WITH VERY LITTLE SPACE BETWEEN THE GAS TANK AND THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS NO OTHER PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO THE GAS TANK OTHER THAN THE TINY HOLE, WHICH SHOWS THAT I DIDN'T RUN OVER OR HIT ANYTHING. THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T EXPLAIN WHY THERE WAS A SMALL HOLE BUT NO OTHER DAMAGE, OTHER THAN THE POSSIBILITY OF IT BEING CAUSED BY A ROCK, BUT THEY DIDN'T SEEM CONFIDENT IN THEIR EVALUATION. IT TOOK THEM MAYBE 15 MINUTES TO LOOK AT IT AND SAY IT WAS USER FAULT. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE BECAUSE WHILE DRIVING 30-35 MPH, SHOULDN'T THE GAS TANK BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND A ROCK HITTING THE TANK, INSTEAD OF CAUSING A TINY PUNCTURE AT THE TOP? ALSO, WOULDN'T IT MAKE MORE SENSE IF THIS HOLE APPEARED ON THE BOTTOM OF THE GAS TANK INSTEAD OF THE TOP, BECAUSE THE BOTTOM OF THE GAS TANK IS MORE EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS ON THE ROAD/STREETS? THIS WORRIES ME BECAUSE IF SUCH LIGHT PRESSURE CAN CAUSE THE FUEL TANK TO PUNCTURE, WOULDN'T THIS BE A SAFETY HAZARD?

I JUST PURCHASED A 2015 ALTIMA SV WITH THE TECH PACKAGE. THIS INCLUDE SEVERAL SAFETY FEATURES, BUT THE ONE I WANTED MOST WAS THE BLIND SPOT WARNING SYSTEM. I DISCOVERED IN THE FIRST 2 WEEKS THAT WHEN IT WAS RAINING OR THE ROADS WERE WET, THE BSW COULD GIVE FALSE ALARMS LIKE A CAR WAS NEXT TO ME, WHEN THERE WAS NO OTHER CARS NEAR ME. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER TWICE FOR THIS AND ON THE SECOND TIME, I WAS HANDED A BULLETIN THAT SHOWS THE ISSUE. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER TO CONTACT NISSAN CUSTOMER SUPPORT FOR RESOLUTION. I JUST HEARD BACK FROM THEM ON 12/30/14 AND THEIR RESPONSE WAS THAT IT WAS WORKING AS DESIGNED. HOW CAN A SAFETY FEATURE THAT IS PART OF A 1000.00 PACKAGE BE DESIGNED TO GIVE FALSE ALARMS WHEN THE ROADS ARE WET. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND HAVE HAVE NISSAN RESOLVE THIS ISSUE BEFORE IT CAUSES SOMEONE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. THANKS. *JS
