2005 NISSAN ALTIMA Unknown Or Other Problems

The car shuts off while driving.

When I was in an accident in 2006 Airbags did not open. I worry about valve cap and if it is safe. Other this when opening my door Door handle are defected and breaking off. I never had a car where door handles break. I would like assistance with these issues. Thank you.

Car did a jerk while I was driving in the interstate never lost speed didnt hit anything it was like a big jerk no noise no smoke no lights came on nothing so I got to my mom house parked no smoke no dent no nothing right well got ready to go a couple hours later no reverse fluid level was kinda low but no leaks now yesterday getting readyto leave work I have no foward either what is this seem like a drive shaft issue to me

AT FIRST WE THOUGHT IT WAS THE BELT BECAUSE THE BELT FROM COMING OFF YOU CHANGE THE SERPENTINE BELT AND THEN IT WOULD RUN FOR A LITTLE BIT THEN IT STARTED TO STOP AND NOT BE ABLE TO GET ENOUGH FUEL TO THE GAS PEDAL AND I'D HAVE TO REV IT UP. WE OPENED IT UP WHERE THE SPARK PLUGS WERE ON THE VALVE COVERS AND IT WAS HALFWAY FULL OF OIL WE GOT ALL THE OIL OUT WHEN WE ORDERED A NEW VALVE COVER AND SPARK PLUGS THE CAR RUN FINE FOR ONE DAY NOW IT WILL NOT START AGAIN. THE FAN TURNS ON LIKE IT IS RUNNING BUT THERE IS NO POWER TO THE CAR AT ALL. I READ THAT AFTER THE OIL GETS INTO THE VALVE COVERS THERE'S REALLY NO FIXING IT AFTER THAT. AND EVERY TIME THAT WE FIX IT ONLY LAST FOR ONE DAY AND SO IT'S VERY DANGEROUS FOR ME AND MY DAUGHTER TO BE DRIVING AROUND IN THAT UNRELIABLE CAR WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT THE RECALL.

SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE CRANK SHAFT. IT RUNS ROUGH IT STALLS AND THE GAS MILEAGE IS VERY OFF

I REMEMBER GETTING INTO HIGHWAY ACCELERATING, IT DID NOT WANT TO GO TO THE NEXT GEAR SUDDENLY IT FEELS LIKE THE VEHICLE IS OFF. I FREAK OUT LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND HIT THE WALL OF THE BRIDGE. I WAS HANGING FROM THE BRIDGE. I CALLED NISSAN AFFAIRS AND THEY DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. MY VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS... THE CASE WITH NISSAN AFFAIRS CASE#38420940. BERENIZ AND DAKOTA WERE THE INVESTIGATORS ON THE CASE.

1. THREE HANDLES ON THE NISSAN ALTIMA ON MY CAR HAVE SNAPPED OFF WHEN OPENING. EVEN AFTER REPLACING THEM THEY STILL SNAP OFF PROBABLY BECAUSE IN COLD WEATHER THEY BECOME BRITTLE. IF HE HANDLES WERE METAL THEY WOULD NOT SNAP OFF. MY CONCERN IS IF DURING AN ACCIDENT BEFORE EMERGENCY VEHICLES COULD ARRIVE THAT IF SOMEONE WERE TO TRY TO ASSIST GETTING ME OUT OF THE CAR THE HANDLES WOULD SNAP OFF AND THEY COULD NOT REMOVE ME FROM THE CAR. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS THE HANDLES ON CARS SHOULD NOT SNAP OFF AND PLASTIC HANDLES ARE EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IN ALL CLIMATES. 2. I HAVE HAD MY FRONT HEADLIGHTS CLEANED THREE TIMES AND THEY ALWAYS FOG UP WITHIN SEVERAL WEEKS OF CLEANING. THE DEALERSHIP HAS SAID IT IS FAULTY DESIGN AND TO REPLACE THE HEADLAMPS IS CLOSE TO A THOUSAND DOLLARS WITH 1 YEAR GUARANTEE WHICH IS VERY COST PROHIBITIVE. I HAVE SEEN CARS LESS THAN TWO YEARS OLD WITH OPAQUE HEAD LAMPS THIS IS UNACCETABLE AND DANGEROUS THAT LIGHTS CAN NOT PROJECT LIGHT APPROPRIATELY AND THIS IS ON MOST MODELS OF CARS. IF YOU ARE IN RURAL AREAS AND THE LIGHTS DO NOT PROJECT LIGHT THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM. I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT METAL HANDLES AND DURABLE HEADLIGHT COVERS THAT DON'T FOG ARE NOT REQUIRED OF THESE COMPANIES. UNTIL THE LAST 15-20 YEARS THIS WAS NEVER A PROBLEM BUT CAR MANUFACTURERS ARE OPTING FOR CHEAP MATERIALS THAT CAN HAVE LETHAL REPERCUSSIONS FOR CRUCIAL SAFETY ITEMS. CAR HANDLES AND HEAD LAMPS AS FAR AS SAFETY ARE AS CRUCIAL AS PROPER AIRBAG FUNCTION. HANDLES SHOULD NOT SNAP OFF IN YOUR HANDS AND HEADLAMPS IF CLEANED SHOULD REMAIN CLEAN AND NOT FOGGY AND THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS CONCERN.

THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA BECAUSE OF OVER HEATING DUE TO A FAILING CRANKSHAT/CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR WHICH CAUSES CAR TO STALL UNEXPECTEDLY AND CAUSE VEHICLE TO CRASH. WELL MY VEHICLE IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST BUT YET HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND ALMOST WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE DUE TO SENSOR GETTING HOT AND CAUSING CAR TO STALL AND DECREASE SPEED DRAMATICALLY. AND WITH NISSAN NOT RECALLING MY VIN FOR THE SAME OBVIOUS REASONS FOR THE RECALL. SO I'M BEING FORCED TO DRIVE THIS UNSAFE CAR THAT I'VE LET NISSAN KNOW IS DEFECTED, THUS ENDANGERING MYSELF AND THE PUBLIC. IT'S AS THOUGH I HAVE TO BE IN AN ACCIDENT AND THEN HAVE TO SUE NISSAN BECAUSE OF NEGLET AND ALLOWING ONE OF THEIR VEHICLES CONTINUE TO OPERATE KNOWING THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH ITS SAFETY. SO I MAY BE FORCED TO HAVE PROBLEM FIXED BUT WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR REPAIRS.

OVER TWO MONTHS AGO MY GRANDSON OPENED THE OUTSIDE DRIVER SIDE DOOR OF MY NISSAN ALTIMA AND THE HANDLE CAME OFF IN HIS HAND. THE CAR WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY. MY SON CHECKED FOR RECALLS AND SAID THERE WHERE NO RECALLS, EVEN THOUGH HE FOUND THAT THIS HAD HAPPENED TO OTHER OWNERS. HE ALSO FOUND THE PRICES FOR FIXING WITH A DEALER OR OTHER MECHANIC. AFTER A FEW DAYS OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITHOUT THE HANDLE BEING FIXED, IT OCCURRED TO ME THAT THIS COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD. IF I WERE IN AN ACCIDENT AND PASSED OUT NO ONE COULD OPEN THE DOOR IN A TIMELY MANNER TO REMOVE ME OR OTHERS (IF IT WAS A PASSENGER DOOR) FROM THE VEHICLE. I CALLED NISSAN HEADQUARTERS AND FILED A CASE A DAY OR SO LATER. I RECEIVED A CALL WITHIN A DAY OR TWO AND EXPLAINED THE SITUATION AND MY CONCERNS BUT I WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE IS TOO MANY MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY AND TOO MANY MILES OUT OF WARRANTY. I EXPLAINED PROBLEM AND THE SAFETY CONCERNS BUT NOTHING MADE A DIFFERENCE. I TOLD THE FIRST AGENT WHO INITIALLY TOOK MY CASE, WHEN ASKED WHAT NISSAN COULD DO FOR ME, I SAID GIVE ME A DISCOUNT ON THE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT OF OUTSIDE DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE. A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER I RECEIVED AN EMAIL SURVEY FROM NISSAN HEADQUARTERS AND AGAIN EXPRESSED MY CONCERN REGARDING SAFETY AND ALSO THE CONCERNS I RECENTLY HAD REGARDING THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP I HAD BEEN DEALING WITH SINCE I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THE CAR BRAND NEW FROM THIS PARTICULAR DEALER. I HAVE NOT HEARD ANY MORE FROM NISSAN HEADQUARTERS IN MORE THAN A MONTH. MY SON DID GLUE THE HANDLE BACK FOR ME, BUT JUST RECENTLY IT CAME OFF AGAIN. I MAY NEED TO HAVE IT PROFESSIONALLY REPAIRED. IN ORDER TO GET INTO THE VEHICLE, I MUST UNLOCK IT WITH THE REMOTE (I THINK THAT IS WHAT IT IS CALLED) AND LET THE WINDOW DOWN AND REACH IN TO OPEN THE DOOR. AFTER HOLDING THE DOOR HANDLE IN MY HAND, I BELIEVE IT IS JUST MADE OF PLASTIC.

UPON INSPECTION PRIOR TO TRYING TO PRIVATELY SELL MY CAR, IT WAS FOUND THAT THE FLOORBOARDS WERE RUSTING OUT AND THERE ARE ACTUAL HOLE ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THE CAR. APPARENTLY, UPON ME GOOGLING, THIS IS A KNOWN DESIGN ISSUE (RATHER THAN NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR) FOR NISSANS BETWEEN 2002-2006. TO FIX THE CAR WILL COST ME MORE THAN IT IS WORTH. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT HOLES IN THE FLOORBOARDS ARE ALSO A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN.

Mileage: 152,000

I HAD A BIG HOLE ON MY PASSENGER SIDE AS WELL AS DRIVER SIDE ON FLOOR. MY PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHTS ON. IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME OUT THAT WILL BE SO USEFUL FOR ME. PLEASE TAKE AN ACTION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THANKS.

A PERSON FROM MY JOB AT STERICYCLE BY THE NAME OF MICHAEL WYGEL WHO WORKS AS AN I.T. TECHNICIAN AT SHRED-IT/STERICYCLE LOCATED AT 81 WALSH ROAD IN PARSIPPANY NJ, KEEPS ILLEGALLY REMOTELY HACKING MY CAR. THE LIGHT COMES ON SAYING "TCS OFF" AND ANOTHER LIGHT COMES ON WITH IT STATING "SLIP." WHEN HE DOES THIS AND THESE LIGHTS COMES ON, THE CAR DOES NOT DRIVE SAFELY AT ALL. THE CAR DOESN'T GO INTO GEAR EASILY AND IT SEEMS TO BE VERY ROUGH TO SWITCH GEARS. ALSO THE STEERING IS COMPLETELY OFF WHEN HE DOES THIS AS WELL AS THE DRIVING OF THE VEHICLE TOO. THIS LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE I AM DRIVING. I AM VERY TERRIFIED. HE HAS BEEN STALKING ME ONLINE FOR MONTHS SINCE I FOUND OUT THE I.T. DEPT PUT WEBCAMS IN THE COMPUTER STANDS AT MY JOB, AND SINCE HE HAS BEEN ELECTRONICALLY STALKING ME-WITH THIS ILLEGAL SICK REMOTE CAR HACKING BEING A PART OF HIS MALICIOUS BEHAVIOR TOWARDS ME IN HIS EFFORTS TO CLEARLY HARM ME. I AM IN FEAR FOR MY LIFE AND SAFETY. CAR HACKING AS YOU KNOW IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND I DO NOT WANT HIM TO DO THIS TO ME.

SORRY FOR MY BELATED COMPLAINT. I JUST LEARNED OF YOUR WEBSITE. EARLY EVENING AUG 18, 2016 ENTIRE REAR WINDOW OF MY 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA COMPLETELY BLEW OUT FOR NO APPARENT REASON. FORTUNATELY -- NOBODY WAS SITTING IN BACK SEAT(S) OF MY CAR - NO ADULTS & NO CHILDREN !! WHAT A BIG MESS !! A CLEAR & NORMAL SUMMER EVENING - NO SEVERE WEATHER CONDITIONS TO EVEN PROVOKE A CRAZY & SUDDEN INCIDENT LIKE THIS. LUCKILY -- I WAS NOT ON A HIGHWAY. I WAS ON A QUIET SUBURBAN ROAD WITH RELATIVELY LOW TRAFFIC. I WAS AT STOP LIGHT & SUDDENLY HEARD A LOUD POP SOUND -- ALMOST LIKE A GUN SHOT. I CHECKED MY REAR VIEW MIRROR & MY ENTIRE CAR REAR WINDOW WAS BLOWN OUT WITH VERY LARGE HOLES & TINY SHATTERED GLASS PIECES STREWN ALL OVER INSIDE BACK SEAT AREA OF MY CAR. SOME SHATTERED GLASS EVEN BLEW OUT ALL WAY TO FRONT SECTION WHERE I WAS SEATED !! I IMMEDIATELY GOT OFF THE ROAD & PULLED OVER INTO NEARBY WALGREENS PARKING LOT & CALLED LOCAL POLICE. POLICEMAN CAME & EXAMINED MY CAR. HE DID NOT FEEL ANY FOUL PLAY WAS INVOLVED NOR ANY GUNSHOT NOR BASEBALL THROWN INTO MY REAR CAR WINDOW. I TOOK 24 PHOTOS ? SEE 5 UPLOADED. HE HELPED ME GATHER MOST OF BROKEN & SHATTERED GLASS INTO A PLASTIC BAG. WE NOTED A FEW PIECES HAD DARK BROWN BURN MARKS ON THEM. HE SAID MOST LIKELY IT INDICATED A "SHORT" OCCURRED IN REAR DEFROSTER ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. HE COULD NOT PREPARE POLICE REPORT BCUZ IT DID NOT INVOLVE ANY FOUL PLAY. NEXT DAY I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS (NCA). THEY ASKED ME TO EMAIL MY 24 PHOTOS TO NCA & ONLY AGREED TO PAY TO REPLACE REAR CAR WINDOW. I TOLD NCA IT WAS PROBABLY A SHORT IN REAR DEFROSTER ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ? A SERIOUS NISSAN SAFETY ISSUE & DEFECT. FOR ME ? A SCARY INCIDENT !! I SAVED ALL SHATTERED GLASS PIECES WITH DARK BROWN BURN MARKS, BUT NCA DID NOT WANT THEM. UNFORTUNATELY -- I CAN ONLY UPLOAD 5 PHOTOS. IF YOU WANT TO VIEW ALL 24 PHOTOS - CALL OR TEXT MY CELL [XXX].

THE FLOORBOARDS ON MY 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH. YOU CAN SEE THE CARPET FROM THE UNDERBED ON BOTH SIDES (DRIVER AND PASSANGER). I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS MAY BE A FLAW IN THE DRAINAGE SYSTEM OF MY CAR AND IT'S PRETTY COSTLY TO GET THIS REPAIRED & TO BE PERFECTLY HONEST, I CAN'T AFFORD TO GET IT REPAIRED. I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR ALTIMAS.

THE FLOOR BOARDS UNDER THE PASSENGER'S FEET ARE COMPLETELY RUSTED OUT. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH. I WAS DOING MY RESERACH AND FROM ALL THE REPORTS, IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE NISSAN OR NHTSA IS TAKING THIS SERIOUSLY. YOU CAN SEE THE ROAD THRU THE HUGE HOLES.

DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR BOARD HAS RUSTED THROUGH FROM THE INSIDE OUT. THERE IS A DRAINAGE ISSUE.

MY 2005 NISSIAN ALTIMA HAS BEEN GIVING ME ISSUES WITH THE SHIFTER WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SWITCH GEAR FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE IT TAKES SEVERAL MINUTES JUST FOR THE CAR TO GO INTO GEAR AND WHEN DOING SO JERKS EXTREMELY HARD...I HAVE ALSO HAD MANY ISSUES WITH IT NOT WANTING TO START AND I WILL HAVE TO PLACE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL THEN FORCE BACK INTO PARK MANY TIMES BEFORE MY CAR WILL START...THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND KEPT VERY CLEAN...WHILE HAVING CAR INSPECTED I WAS INFORMED OF THE FLOOR BOARDS ROTTING OUT...I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT NISSAN AND DISCUSS THESE ISSUES...I HAVE HAD 000 RESULTS IN BEING ABLE TO DO SO...THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS...IF I WOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THESE ISSUES I WOULD HAVE NEVER PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE...AND WITH THE TREATMENT FROM NISSAN...WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANY VEHICLE FROM THEM AGAIN

TAKATA RECALL. VEHICLE HAS HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND THE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. WHEN DEALER IS NOTIFIED, DEALER REFUSES THAT THERE WAS A PAST RECALL ON THIS PART FOR THE 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH A 2.5 ENGINE. DEALER WILL NOT HELP. THIS VEHICLE HAS TURNED OFF WHILE IN MOTION AS WELL AS STATIONARY . THIS VEHICLE ALSO WOULD NOT START UP. LOCAL MECHANIC IS QUOTED SAYING " VEHICLE'S ENGINE PARTS ARE THE EXACT ENGINE PARTS FROM WHEN THE CAR WAS MADE. THE PARTS WERE NEVER REPLACED.".

CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR SAME THING IS HAPPENING TO THE 2005 SUMMARY: ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A 2.5L ENGINE, THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CAN OVERHEAT CAUSING A BRIEF INTERRUPTION IN THE SIGNAL OUTPUT FROM THE SENSOR. CONSEQUENCE: IF THE INTERRUPTION IN THE SIGNAL FROM THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR IS SO BRIEF THAT THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE (ECM) LOGIC DOES NOT HAVE TIME TO DIAGNOSE THE CONDITION, THE ENGINE MAY STOP RUNNING WITHOUT WARNING WHILE THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN AT A LOW SPEED INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

MY CAR HAS BEEN REJECTED 2 YEARS IN A ROW DURING MY ROUTINE INSPECTION, DUE TO RUSTED/ROTTED OUT FLOOR BOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I BROUGHT MY NISSAN TO KELLY NISSAN OF LYNNFIELD IN JULY 2014, AFTER MY LOCAL AUTO MECHANIC FAILED IT [JULY 2014] DUE TO RUSTED/ROTTED OUT FLOOR BOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP PASSED MY CAR IN INSPECTION AND TOLD US THAT THERE WAS NO CAUSE FOR CONCERN ABOUT THE FLOORBOARD. TODAY, I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE FOR INSPECTION [PAST DUE] TO MY LOCAL AUTO MECHANIC, AND THEY FAILED IT DUE TO RUSTED/ROTTED OUT FLOOR BOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THEY APPROXIMATED THE HOLE IS 4 INCHES BY 6 INCHES. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND CREATED A CASE FILE. I AM SUPPOSED TO BE CONTACTED BY A LOCAL REPRESENTATIVE BY COB TOMORROW. THE MANAGER OF KELLY NISSAN OF LYNNFIELD CALLED ME TO TELL ME THAT HE CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME UNTIL A DETERMINATION IS MADE BY THE LOCAL REP, AND HOPEFULLY IT WILL GO THROUGH, AS IT APPEARS THAT I HAVE BROUGHT MY CAR TO THEIR DEALERSHIP ENOUGH TO WARRANT THEM TO DO THE REPAIR. SO THAT WAS THE GOOD NEWS; THAT I HAVE ENOUGH HISTORY WITH THEIR DEALERSHIP THAT I COULD POTENTIALLY GET IT REPAIRED.

Mileage: 118,000

THE ENTIRE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE UNDERCARRIAGE IS RUSTED OUT. I PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW FROM A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND TOOK IT INTO THE SAME DEALERSHIP FOR 10 YEARS EVERY 3,500 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP NEVER MENTIONED THAT THE UNDERCARRIAGE WAS RUSTING OUT. I ONLY LEARNED OF THE ISSUE WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR AN ANNUAL SAFETY INSPECTION.

Mileage: 1,000,000

AS YOU WELL KNOW BY NOW, THE NUMEROUS DOCUMENTED ISSUES WITH 2002-2006 NISSAN ALTIMA HAS ALAS REACHED MY NISSAN ALTIMA. FLOORBOARD IS RUSTING INTENSELY BUT I AM NOT DO RICH SO CAN'T AFFORD THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS THAT EVERY MECHANIC (I PAID TO INSPECT BY THE WAY) IS QUOTING ME. NOTHING MUCH TO ADD TO THIS DESCRIPTION BECAUSE NO ONE IS GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ANYWAY. ISSUE HAS BEEN ON LOCAL NEWSCASTS SO MY INSIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTION OF FILING COMPLAINT IS STRICTLY TO JOIN THE CAUSE IN MIND AND SPIRIT. BY NO MEANS TRYING TO SOUND INSENSITIVE INSTEAD TRUTHFUL; IT'S CLEAR SOMEONE WILL HAVE TO DIE BEFORE THINGS CHANGE, JUST HOPE ISN'T IS ME.

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HER 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA AND OVER CORRECTED IN A CURVE. SHE HIT A TREE AND THE AIR BAG IN THE STEERING WHEEL DEPLOYED. SHE WAS WEARING HER SEAT BELT AND WAS HELD BACK BY THE SEAT BELT HER HEAD IMPACTING THE CENTER OR THE STEERING WHEEL. THE COVER OVER THE AIR BAG BLEW OUT HINGING ITSELF AT THE TOP AND MAKING TWO VERY POINTED AND SHARP EDGES ON EACH BOTTOM CORNER. THE RIGHT BOTTOM POINT PIERCED THE SKIN BETWEEN HER NOSE AND THE CORNER OF HER LEFT EYE MISSING IT BY LESS THAN A SIXTEENTH OF AN INCH AND BREAKING HER NOSE. THE DANGEROUS PART IS THE TWO SHARP POINTS ON THE FLAP WHERE THE AIR BIG DEPLOYED SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A DESIGN FLAW.

Mileage: 116,000

THE CAR'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED AND WHILE DRIVING. THE BRAKE AND BATTERY LIGHTS KEPT GOING OFF AND ON. THERE WAS ALSO A CLANKING SOUND. I STOPPED AND LET CAR COOL. CONTINUED DRIVING AND NOTICED FIRE FROM MY REAR VIEW MIRROR. RAN OUT OF CAR AND IT CAUGHT FIRE 30 SECONDS AFTER FOLLOWED BY COUPLE OF EXPLOSIONS.

THE FLOOR BOARDS UNDER THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEATS HAVE RUSTED SO BADLY I CAN PUT MY FOOT THROUGH THE HOLE

Mileage: 70,000

THE ENTIRE FLOOR IN FRONT OF THE FRONT SEATS IS COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH TO THE POINT THAT YOU CAN SEE THE ROAD UNDERNEATH THE CAR. EVER SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THE FLOOR HAD HOLES IN IT (FOUND RIGHT AFTER I HAD ALREADY BOUGHT THE VEHICLE). THIS IS A HAZARD FOR THE PASSENGERS, VERY COMMON AMONGST NISSAN ALTIMAS AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURER. THIS ISSUE MAKES THE CAR UNSELLABLE SINCE IT WILL NEVER PASS INSPECTION UNLESS A MAJOR REPAIR IS DONE TO ITS BODY. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT A CAR WOULD HAVE STRUCTURAL ISSUES LIKE SEVERE RUST AND NISSAN NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND THE NHTSA NOT MAKE NISSAN BUY THE AFFECTED VEHICLES BACK.

Mileage: 90,000

A MECHANIC, DURING AN UNRELATED REPAIR, REPORTED HE COULD SEE CARPET FROM THE UNDERNEATH MY CAR AND UPON FURTHER INSPECTION DISCOVERED TWO HOLES IN THE FLOORBOARDS ON THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS SIDES (FRONT SEAT). I TOOK THIS IN FOR AN ESTIMATE AND IT WILL COST $700-1000 TO REPAIR. THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE MANUFACTURER'S DESIGN...THESE FLOORBOARDS SHOULD NOT RUST COMPLETELY THROUGH LIKE THIS. I HAVE CHILDREN AND AM WORRIED THAT ROAD DEBRIS OR SOMETHING RIPPING THROUGH THE CARPET FROM THE INSIDE COULD CAUSE INJURY OR WORSE AND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

Mileage: 147,000

I RECENTLY HAD MY 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA IN THE SHOP FOR AND OIL CHANGE & FRONT BRAKE REPLACEMENT. THE TECH REPORTED A RUST ISSUE ON THE DRIVERS & PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR PANS. HE GOT A NEARBY BODY SHOP TO GIVE A REPAIR QUOTE, WHICH IS ~$700. I TOOK A LOOK UNDER THE CAR MYSELF & WAS SHOCKED TO FIND FLOOR RUST ~18" X 9" ON PASSENGER & DRIVER FLOOR BOARDS. THE RUST HOLES ARE ALMOST IDENTICAL. THERE ARE NO OTHER RUST SPOTS ON THE CAR, WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THERE IS A FACTORY DEFECT. A LOOK ON LINE SHOWED WHAT I SUSPECTED; AN EPIDEMIC OF RUST IN THE SAME LOCATION ON EVERY ALTIMA! MY CAR SPENT ITS FIRST 8 YEARS IN SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN. THE LAST 2 HAVE BEEN IN FLORIDA. THE CAR HAS BEEN GARAGE-KEPT ITS ENTIRE LIFE. THE ISOLATION OF THE RUST IS VERY OBVIOUS. THIS CAR HAS BEEN PROBABLY THE MOST RELIABLE CAR I'VE EVER OWNED, WHICH MAKES THIS RUST ISSUE SO DISAPPOINTING. FROM THE RESEARCH I'VE GATHERED, NISSAN HAS NO INTENTION OF STANDING BEHIND THIS ISSUE. I HAD PLANS TO TRADE THIS CAR IN ON A NISSAN QUEST IN 2016. I WILL BE CROSSING NISSAN OFF THE LIST.

Mileage: 139,000

FRONT FLOORBOARDS RUSTING THOUGH, LOOKING AT OTHER COMPLAINTS THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR.

THE FLOOR OF MY 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA HAS RUSTED OUT ON BOTH SIDES, THIS SHOULLD BE A RECALL BECAUSE I HAVE READ THAT OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM

Mileage: 139,919

I HAD BEEN AWARE THERE THERE WAS SOME RUST ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR PAN. MY ALTIMA WAS RECENTLY TAKEN TO MY MECHANIC AND PUT ON THE LIFT FOR SOME MAINTENANCE AND MY MECHANIC TOOK PICTURES TO SHOW ME HOW EXTENSIVE THE RUST HAD BECOME. A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE FLOOR UNDER THE DRIVER'S FEET IS MISSING AND A LARGE PIECE OF METAL IS HANGING DOWN. THE MECHANIC ALSO NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE NOW HAS A SMALL PATCH OF RUST.

Mileage: 82,000

2005 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH 59,270 MILES AS OF 06.07.15, HAS A RUSTED FLOOR BOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE CONSISTENT WITH THE HUNDREDS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS TO YOU, TO NISSAN, AND AS OUTLINED ON THE TODAY SHOW. CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, ONLY OWNER, GARAGED SINCE PURCHASE AND SHORTLY DUE TO NISSAN'S DESIGN AND ENGINEERING DEFECTS TWO THINGS WILL HAPPEN: 1. THE FLOOR BOARD WILL BE COMPLETELY RUSTED OUT AND ALLOW EXHAUST FUMES AND WATER INTO THE CAR. 2. THE VALUE OF MY CAR WHICH I HAVE SPENT CONSIDERABLE TIME AND EFFORT MAINTAINING WILL DIMINISH SIGNIFICANTLY DUE TO NO FAULT OF MY OWN. IT IS ABSOLUTELY CRIMINAL THAT NISSAN HAS NOT HAD A RECALL FOR QUALIFIED CARS, AND I 100% GUARANTEE YOU THAT MY CAR WOULD QUALIFY. SO NOW EVERY TIME IT RAINS OR I WASH THE CAR, DUE TO NISSAN'S DESIGN AND ENGINEERING DEFECTS, I'M ONE STEP CLOSER TO HAVING A BUILT-IN EXHAUST FUME AIR CONDITIONER. A MODERN DAY "FLINTSTONES" CAR IF YOU WILL. CRIMINAL!

Mileage: 59,270

SO BESIDES THE FACT THAT MY FLOOR BOARD ON MY DRIVERS SIDE HAS A HUGE HOLE IN IT, THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR HAS CAUSE ME ENOUGH PROBLEMS TO WHERE I BELIEVE NISSAN SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS ISSUE. THE VEHICLE IDLES ROUGH, WHEN ACCELERATING IT FEELS LIKE THE CAR IS ABOUT TO SHUT OFF, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU CHANGE THE SENSOR. I'VE HAD MINE CHANGED FOUR TIMES. I AM ACTUALLY SICK OF THIS VEHICLE NOW AND WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN. TO MAKE IT WORSE I CAN'T TAKE THE CAR OUT OF TOWN BECAUSE IT WILL GET HOT THEN THE CLUTCH STICKS TO THE FLOOR. I HAVE TO LIFT IT WITH MY FOOT AND IT STILL WON'T ENGAGE, IT LOSES ALL PRESSURE. SO DRIVING LONG DISTANCE IS OUT OF THE QUESTION. SOMEONE NEEDS TO FIX THIS BEFORE THERE IS AN ACCIDENT. I ALMOST GOT HIT BECAUSE I COULDN'T GET MY CAR TO GO INTO THIRD GEAR. WHEN I DO GET IN AN ACCIDENT I WILL SUE NISSAN AND ANYBODY ELSE WHO KNEW ABOUT THESE PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR AND SAT BACK AND DID NOTHING.

Mileage: 183,000

CAR WAS IN SHOP FOR FRONT END SUSPENSION AND TECHNICIAN POINTED OUT RUST HOLES UNDER BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SEATS. THIS SEEMS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE MANUFACTURING OF THE BODY, AND WAS LOOKING TO SEE IF THERE IS A RECALL.

I AM DRIVING A 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA SE-R WITH APPROXIMATELY 140,000 MILES ON IT. I WAS DRIVING ON A BUSY ROAD AND COMING TO A STOP FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT, PROBABLY AT 5 TO 10 MPH. THE ENGINE SHUT OFF FOR NO REASON. I WENT TO AUTOZONE AND GOT THE ENGINE CODE AND IT IS FOR CAN SHAFT POSITION SENSOR. I BROWSED INTERNET AND THIS SEEMS A COMMON PROBLEM

I BROUGHT MY CAR TO MY PERSONAL MECHANIC FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND A YEARLY INSPECTION. WHILE DOING THE INSPECTION THE MECHANIC TOOK NOTICE OF THE SEVERE RUSTING OF THE FRONT DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER FLOOR BOARDS. HE SAID THAT IT PASSED INSPECTION AND THAT SOMETHING WILL HAVE TO BE DONE ABOUT THE RUST DAMAGE SOON BEFORE IT GETS WORSE AND I END UP PUTTING MY FOOT THROUGH IT. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED NISSAN AND THEY TOLD ME I LIVE IN A 4 SEASON STATE AND THAT IT IS NORMAL DO TO SALT EROSION. I HAVE HAD A GARAGE KEPT VEHICLE AND I AM CONSTANTLY CLEANING THE CAR DURING THE WINTER BECAUSE I KNOW SALT EATS CARS. HERE I AM 2 MONTHS LATER AND I SEE THE OUT CRY OF OTHER NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS ON THE TODAY SHOW. HOW CAN THEY BE GETTING AWAY WITH THIS. I PLAN TO GET A NEW CAR WITHIN THE NEXT YEAR SO IN ORDER TO SELL THIS ONE I WILL HAVE TO SPEND THE MONEY TO FIX IT BECAUSE NO USED CAR BUYER WOULD WANT TO BUY IT IN THIS STATE. WHY IS NISSAN NOT STANDING BEHIND THEIR VEHICLES? I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN.

Mileage: 75,300

THE VEHICLE WOULD OVERHEAT CAUSES THE RADIATOR TO LEAK, WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE WOULD STALL FOR FEW MINUTES, VEHICLE WOULD HARD TURN THE STARTER AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CHECK WOULD FLASH OFF AND ON WHILE DRIVING.

I TOOK MY 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA INTO MY LOCAL MECHANIC FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND HE INFORMED ME THAT MY FLOOR BOARDS (ON BOTH SIDES)WERE SO BADLY RUSTED OUT THAT HE COULD SEE AND FEEL MY CARPET FROM UNDERNEATH. HE ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AND MY CAR WOULD NOT PASS INSPECTION. THERE IS NO RUST ON THE BODY OF MY CAR SO ITS DISTURBING TO ME THAT IN A 2005 VEHICLE IT CAN BE THAT BADLY RUSTED UNDERNEATH. *TR

RECENTLY WHILE GETTING NEW TIRES INSTALLED AT A TIRE SHOP, I WAS INFORMED BY THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN THAT THERE WAS FLOOR PAN RUST ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE OF MY CAR. THIS RUST COULDN'T OF HAPPENED OVERNIGHT SINCE THE RUST IS ABOUT TO BREAK THROUGH THE CARPET AS IF IT WERE A 15-20 YR. OLD CAR. THE RUST IS LOCATED IN THE SAME SPOT ON EACH SIDE BY THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER FLOOR MATS. ON A SHOP LIFT YOU CAN SEE THAT THE RUST INITIALLY FORMED ON EACH SIDE WHERE THE DRAIN HOLES WERE INSTALLED. AT NISSAN'S REQUEST, I TOOK MY CAR (BOUGHT NEW) TO THE NEAREST NISSAN FOR INSPECTION. MY COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN CORPORATE WAS THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON FLOOR PAN RUST AS IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN I.E THE SEAT CAN MALFUNCTION AND ALSO CARBON DIOXIDE COULD GET INSIDE THE CAR. I ALSO MENTIONED THAT I WAS AWARE ANY KIND OF RUST WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THAT THE REASON FOR THE RUST HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH LIVING IN HIGH SALT STATE. AFTER EXTENSIVE RESEARCH, IT BECAME APPARENT THAT THIS HAS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW BY NISSAN AND THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ON MAINLY 2ND GEN. ALTIMAS HAVING THIS ADV. FLOOR PAN RUST IN THE EXACT SAME AREAS!! IF THE RUST WAS SPORADIC, THEN SALT WOULD MOST LIKELY BE A CAUSE, AND IF WET SNOWY SHOES WAS THE PROBLEM THEN THERE WOULD BE RUST UNDER THE REAR FLOOR PANS. AS A RESULT, AS NOTED ON THE NISSAN FORUM WEBSITE, A MORE VALID CAUSE IS DESIGN FLAW, DRAIN HOLES WERE IMPROPERLY INSTALLED ALLOWING WATER TO CONGREGATE AND RUST TO FORM. AFTER NISSAN INVESTIGATED MY FILE,THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO HELP. NOT EVEN PARTIAL REIMBURSEMENT. I FIND THIS UNBELIEVABLE AND UNACCEPTABLE.THIS 2ND GENERATION ALTIMA FLOOR PAN RUST IS SO COMMON THAT EVEN MY NEIGHBOR'S 05 ALTIMA HAS THE SAME RUST SPOTS AS WELL. WHAT ALSO DISAPPOINTS ME IS THAT I HAVE HAD ALL OF MY OIL CHANGES DONE BY NISSAN AND RUST WAS NEVER MENTIONED ONCE.

WHILE DRIVING THE CLUTCH PEDAL WILL LOOSE ALL PRESSURE AND WILL FALL TO THE FLOOR. THE VEHICLE MUST BE SHUT OFF AND LEFT PRIOR THE PRESSURE BUILDING BACK UP IN THE CLUTCH. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AS THE DRIVER IS UNABLE TO SHIFT GEARS OR PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL. THIS IS A NOTORIOUS PROBLEM WITH ALL NISSAN ALTIMA SE-R WITH MANUAL GEAR BOXES. THIS PROBLEM WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND GET SOMEONE KILLED. TT

WHILE DRIVING ON THE I-95 I BEGAN TO APPROACH SLOWER TRAFFIC. AS I PROCEEDED TO SLOW DOWN, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS CAME ON, MY STEERING GOT STIFF, AND THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY OFF. WHEN I PULLED OVER AND ATTEMPTED TO START THE CAR AGAIN IT HESITATED BUT EVENTUALLY IT STARTED. HOWEVER, THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT THAT HAS OCCUR, THE CAR NO LONGER STARTS AT ALL AND ONLY CRANKS BUT WON'T TURN OVER. *TR

THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP PERFORMED A RECALL ON OUR VEHICLE ON 06/10/2008 FOR THE R0712 ECM PROGRAM RECALL AND THE P5216 RECALL. SINCE THAT WORK, THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT HAS BEEN ON IN THE VEHICLE WHICH REPORTED A VALVE PROBLEM. PRIOR TO THIS WORK BEING DONE, THE LIGHT DID NOT GO ON. WE HAVE HAD THE CAR SERVICED 4 TIMES FOR THE THE REPAIR OF THE VALVE, AND NOW A FULL DIAGNOSIS NEEDS TO BE DONE TO FIGURE OUT WHY THE VALVE KEEPS SHORTING OUT. IT APPEARS IT IS GOING TO BE SOMETHING ELECTRICAL OR WITH THE COMPUTER.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA SE-R 6 SPEED MANUAL WHEN THE CLUTCH JUST SANK TO THE FLOOR I WAS IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AND HEAD COULD NOT GO AT THE LIGHT. AFTER A COUPLE OF TIMES THE CLUTCH WENT BACK TO NORMAL PRESSURE. ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN, BUT THE CLUTCH NEVER WENT BACK TO PRESSURE I HAVE BEEN READING FORUMS ONLINE, AND THIS HAPPENS TO BE A PROBLEM FOR MOST 02-06 NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS WITH MANUALS. NISSAN NEEDS TO OWN UP TO THE PROBLEM AND FIX THIS SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

MY CAR IS A LEMON. *TR

I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM YOU GUYS AFTER THE FACT. MY CAR DEALERSHIP(SERVICE GUY). I WENT TO THE REPAIR SHOP FOR SOMETHING ELSE AND THAT'S HOW I FOUND OUT OF THE RECALL. SOMETHING COULD'VE HAPPEN TO ME OR SOMEONE ELSE WHILE DRIVING THIS CAR WITHOUT WARNING. THEY DID REPROGRAM THE CAR MODULE. BUT I DON'T THINK THAT'S THE ISSUE THE CAR IS STILL DRIVING AS IT DID BEFORE AND I HOPE I DID NOT PURCHASE ONE OF YOUR MANY CARS I'VE HEARD OF AS A LEMON. I REALLY NEED TO KNOW MY NEXT STEPS IN LOOKING INTO GETTING A UPGRADE ON THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE I REALLY LOVE THESE ALTIMAS. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO GO TO A DEALERSHIP AND GO THROUGH THE WHOLE PROCESS AGAIN. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I CAN TAKE THIS CAR TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP TO SWITCH IT OUT I ONLY HAVE 34,399 MILES ON THIS CAR. THIS WAS THE SECOND RECALL ON THIS CAR AND I ONLY HAD THIS CAR A YEAR I TRADED IN MY GALANT 01 AND THAT ONLY HAD 59,732 MILES ON IT SO I'M NOT HARD ON CARS I TAKE CARE OF THINGS. MY SAFETY IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME I DON'T WANT TO HURT NO ONE AND I DON'T WANT NO ONE TO HURT ME OR GET KILLED. I'M BRINGING THIS MATTER TO YOUR ATTENTION FIRST ASKING YOU TO ALSO DON'T PUT MY SAFETY OR NOBODY ELSE IN JEOPARDY. PLEASE RESPOND BACK TO ME SO THIS MATTER CAN BE RESOLVED QUICKLY. THANK YOU , ALFREDA THOMAS *TR

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
