COMPLAINT REGARDING THE REPAIRS OF THE AIR BAG SYSTEM ON THE 1997 NISSAN ALTIMA.*MR THE AIR BAG LIGHT FLASHED ON THE DASH. WHILE DOING INTERNET RESEARCH THE CONSUMER CAME ACROSS TWO SERVICE BULLETINS FOR AIR BAGS.

ON 10-12-04 MY DAUGHTER WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT, WHERE SHE HAD FAILED TO STOP QUICK ENOUGH AT A RED LIGHT. THERE WHERE THREE CARS AHEAD OF HER AT THE RED LIGHT. SHE WAS GOING APPROX. 10 MILES PER HOUR AND HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF HER WHICH LEAD A CHAIN REACTION INVOLVING THE OTHER TWO CARS. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND SHE LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR. SHE WAS RUSHED TO THE HOSPITAL VIA AMBULANCE. SHE WAS TREATED AND RELEASED. THERE WAS NOT DAMAGE TO HER CAR AND LITTLE DAMAGE TO THE THE OTHERS CARS. THE POLICE AT THE SCENE QUESTIONED WHY THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AT SUCH A LOW SPEED. MY CONCERN AND QUESTION ARE THE SAME. WHY WOULD THE AIR BAGS DEPLOY AT SUCH A LOW SPEED AND PERHAPS CAUSE MORE TRAUMA AND INJURY. THE INSURANCE COMPANIES WILL BE INVESTIGATING THIS AS WELL.*AK

REAR BRAKE LIGHTS FAILURE- BOTH SIDES- FIRST LEFT THEN RIGHT- REPLACED WENT OUT AGAIN SOON AFTER. LIGHTS ON HEATER GAUGES FAILED. CIGARETTE LIGHTER "FEMALE PART" PULLS OUT OF DASH WHEN YOU TAKE THE LIGHTER OUT. PASSENGER DOOR PANEL CAME OFF-KEEPS THE DOORS FROM UNLOCKING- TRIED TO FIX IT AND ENDED UP BEING LOCKED IN MY CAR IN THE RAIN FOR AN HOUR. BACK PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT WAS JAMMED. ALSO ODOMETER IS JAMMED-HAS NEVER BEEN TAMPERED WITH. WAS BRINGING MY HUSBAND TO WORK AND I KNOW THAT IT IS A 10 MILE DRIVE-NONE OF THE NUMBERS ROLLED OVER. WORKS WHEN IT WANTS TO. *NM

MY 97 NISSAN ALTIMA(MILELAGE: 66K) RUNS PERFECTLY EXPECT THAT OCCASIONALLY ONCE I PRESS THE BRAKE TIGHTLY AND THE CAR STOP TOTALLY, THE CAR ACCELERATES SUDDENTLY AND RUSH FORWARD, I HAVE TO REPRESS THE BRAKE VERY QUICKLY TO STOP IT AGAIN. SINCE THIS JANUARY IT HAPPENED TWICE. FIRST TIME I ALMOST HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND I THOUGHT THE REASON IS THAT I DIDN'T PRESS THE BRAKE TIGHTLY. FOR THE SECOND TIME, I WAS QUITE SURE I PRESSED THE BRAKE FIRMLY AND STOP AT A STOP LINE, BUT SUDDENTLY THE CAR RUSHED OUT AND CRASHED IN ANOTHER CAR. I'VE ALREADY HAD A BRAKE SYSTEM CHECK AND COULDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEM. I PAID MORE THAN $2,000 FOR THE CAR I CRASHED BUT I FEEL VERY UNDERSERVED, AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO COMPLAIN. AND ALSO I HOPE MY CASE COULD SUPPLY SOME USEFUL INFORMATION FOR YOUR DATABASE, THAT'S THE REASON I WRITE TO YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH! SINCERELY, LI QIANG . *AK

MY SON WAS IN A HEAD ON CRASH IN MY VEHICLE. HE WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH WHEN HE HIT THE BACK OF ANOTHER CAR. HIS AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY NOR DID HIS SEATBELT LOCK. HIS CHIN HIT THE STEERING WHEEL. HIS HEAD AND HAND BOTH WENT INTO THE WINDSHIELD WHICH IS CRACKED. HE WAS DRIVING A 1997 NISSAN ALTIMA. I ALSO HAVE PHOTOS OF THE CAR AND THE WINDSHIELD.*AK

HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS BECOMES CLOUDY AND MAKES THE LIGHTS VERY DIM AND HARD TO SEE WITH AT NIGHT.*AK

WHILE WAITING FOR A RED LIGHT TO CHANGE TO A GREEN LIGHT, CONSUMER'S VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A REAR END AND SIDE IMPACT ACCIDENT. BOTH IMPACTS WERE ABOUT 35 TO 45 MPH, AND NEITHER OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS ISSUED. *PH *MR

A MALFUNCTION WITHIN FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM CAUSED VEHICLE TO CATCH ON FIRE. *AK

WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE, I HAD MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND WAS GETTING READY TO BRAKE, THE CAR ACCELERATED, JUMPED A CURB AND HIT A CONCRETE POST. THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY EITHER.

I PURCHASED A 1997 NISSAN ALTIMA USED WITH 15K MILES IN 1998, IT NOW HAS ABOUT 47K MILES, THE OTHER MORNING WHEN I WENT TO MY CAR THE PAINT WAS COMING OFF, I THOUGHT THAT SOMEONE HAD SCRAPED THE PAINT OFF THE HOOD OF MY CAR, I CALLED MY INS. CO AND THE REFERRED ME TO A DEALER. HE TOOK ONE LOOK AND SAID THAT THE TOP COAT WAS PEELING OFF THE PAINT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE SANDING AND IT WAS NOT COVERED BY MY INS. I HAVE HAD CAR MUCH OLDER THEN THIS ONE AND THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE, THEIR MUST BE A DEFECT IN THIS PAINT, IT IS COMPLETELY PEELING OFF AND IT HAPPENED ALMOST OVERNIGHT. I HAVE TAKEN VERY GOOD CARE OF THIS CAR, GETTING IT WASHED, WAXED & POLISHED. I WOULD APPRECIATE SOME TYPE OF COMPENSATION ON THIS PROBLEM AND A RESPONSE FROM NISSAN MFG.

TOYO VEHICLE TIRE FAILED AT 15,000 MILES. STEEL BELTING BROKE OR SEPARATED, CAUSING A DANGEROUS BULGE IN SIDEWALL. THIS WAS A PREMIUM TIRE RATED FOR A 100,000 MILES. *AK

FOIA FWD FM WEBMASTER REQUEST COPY OF ALL INFORMATION, DOCUMENTS, PHOTOS, DIAGRAMS, NOTES, CONSUMER COMPLAINTS TEST RESULTS, NHTSA FINDINGS FOR THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG ON THE 1997 NISSAN ALTIMA.*MR *CB *JB

CAR CAM SHAFT BROKE TOOK IT TO DEALER TO BE REPAIRED THEY SAID THAT ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I ASKED WHAT CAUSED THE CAM SHAFT TO BREAK THEY SAID I HAVENT BEEN GETTING OIL CHANGES AND DID NOT TAKE CARE OF THE CAR. WHICH IS NOT THE CASE. I CALLED DEALERSHIP AND SPOKE WITH SERVICE MANAGER AND EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT I HAD ALL MY SERVICES DONE WITH THEM HE LOOKED UP INFORMATION AND AGREED THAT I DID HAVE ALL SERVICE MAINTENCE DONE AT THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I HAVE ALL OF THE INVOICES TO PROVE THIS. I FEEL THAT DUE TO IMPROPER MAINTENANCE NEGLECT ON THEIR BEHALF IS THE REASON THIS HAPPENED. THEY REPLACED THE ENGINE WITH A USED ENGINE WHICH HAS 74,OOO MILES WHICH MEANS THIS ENGINE HAS MORE MILES THAN THE ORIGINAL ENGINE. THE TOTAL COST AT MY EXPENSE IS 2739.84. THIS USED ENGINE CARRIES A 90 DAYS WARRANTY ON PARTS ONLY. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT I PURCHASED THIS 1997 NISSAN ALTIMA GXE WHICH ONLY HAD 39513 MILES. THE CURRENT MILEAGE ON THIS VEHICLE IS 64,878. I FEEL I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY THE REPAIRS DUE TO THEIR IMPROPER MAINTENANCE.

THE LEFT REAR TAIL LIGHTS ARE LEAKING I HAD THE REPAIRED AT THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, 2 WEEKS LATER THEY STARTED TO LEAK AGAIN. THE TRUNK IS RUSTED AT THE BOTTOM AND THE DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO GUARANTEE ON THE WORK, BUT AFTER LOOKING ON THE INTERNET AND TALKING TO OTHER PEOPLE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM FOR 97 NISSAN ALTIMAS.

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT WILL FLASH ON AND OFF. *AK

I WOULD LIKE TO COMPLAIN THAT CAR MANUFACTURERS ARE GETTING AWAY WITH INSTALLING STRAIGHT CAM BOLTS ON THE NEW CARS, WHICH FORCE YOU TO PURCHASE ADJUSTABLE CAM BOLTS WHEN THE CAR NEEDS ALIGNMENT. IT HAS RUINED TWO SETS OF TIRES BEFORE A MECHANIC FINALLY TOLD ME WHAT WAS NEEDED AND THAN IT WAS OVER $300 FOR THE CAM BOLTS TO BE INSTALLED. THIS IS AN UNFAIR PARTS PRACTICE BY THE MANUFACTURERS. NO ONE WAS HURT BUT MY TIRES WERE IN DANGER OF TREAD SEPARATION BECAUSE OF THIS. *JB

WHILE DRIVING, THE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHTS STARTED FLICKERING. THE DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT IS WAS RELATED TO A PART IN THE COMPUTER, THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED (PART UNKNOWN). TS THE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHTS REMAIN TO FLICKERING. SCC

CONSUMER STATES THAT ALTERNATOR IS DEFECTIVE AND CONSTANTLY DRAINING VEHICLE'S BATTERY. DEALER INSPECTED AND DIAGNOSED THAT ALTERNATOR WAS ASSEMBLED INCORRECTLY AT TIME OF VEHICLE MANUFACTURE. TS

WHILE TRAVELING AT 60 MPH, CONSUMER STATES VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONTAL COLLISION WITH AN 18 WHEELER. CONSUMER STATES NONE OF THE FOUR AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. ALL FOUR PASSENGERS WERE INJURED. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION.

OWNER WAS DRIVIMG HIS 1997 NISSAN ALTIMA SE ON THE CENTER LANE ALONG MEADOWBROOK PARKWAY, LONG ISLAND, NY. THE BMW 7.4 ON THE RIGHT SIDE (FIRST LANE) MERGED INTO THE CENTER LANE AND MADE A SUDDEN BRAKE. OWNER OF THE NISSAN ALTIMA APPLIED A SUDDEN BRAKE BUT BECAUSE OF THE SHORT DISTANCE IN BETWEEN TWO CARS, THE ALTIMA HIT THE BMW ON THE REAR. BOTH CARS WERE TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 40-45 MILES PER HOUR. BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS WERE NOT DEPLOY. THE PASSENGER, WHO IS 8 MONTH PREAGNANT, REQUIRED TO BE HOSPITALIZED FOR TWO DAYS. I WOULD LIKE TO NISSAN COMPANY TO CAREFULLY INVESTIGATE ON WHAT HAPPENED WHY THE AIRBAGS WERE NOT DEPLOYED DURING THE COLLISION.

WHILE TRAVELING ABOUT 60MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING,HAD BLOWN OUT AND THE DUAL AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE CROSSED THE CONCRETE MEDIAN, AND HIT AN 18 WHEELER HEAD ON, THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. TS SCC

WHILE TAKING A RIGHT TURN FROM A STOP, THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDSHIELD WIPER FAILED TO ACTUATE. LUCKILY I WAS ONLY A FEW MILES FROM MY HOME AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE STILL WORKED IN THE HEAVY RAIN. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION I FOUND THE LINK ASSEMBLY THAT CONNECTS THE LEFT WIPER TO THE RIGHT ONE WAS DISLODGED. THE PLASTIC "SNAP" KNUCKLE AND METAL BALL JOINT WERE WORN AND CAME APART THUS CAUSING THE RIGHT WIPER TO NOT MOVE. I REPLACED THE WIPER ACTUATING LINKAGES AND MOTOR ASSEMBLY. WHILE AT THE PARTS COUNTER AT DECORMIER NISSAN, I NOTICED TWO OTHER MECHANICS OBTAINING THE SAME PARTS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM ON CARS IN THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THE PARTS ATTENDANT SAYS THEY KEEP THESE ITEMS IN STOCK BECAUSE OF THEIR HIGH DEMAND. I AM SENDING THIS TO YOU BECAUSE OF THE POTENTIAL DANGERS INVOLVED IF THIS FAILURE HAD OCCURRED ON THE HIGHWAY AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. DT

CONSUMER CALLED COMPLAINING ABOUT BEEN INVOLVED ON A COLISION AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THEY WERE GOING TO CALL HIM BACK NEVER DID. TS

THE VEHICLES DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT GUIDE RAILS LOCKED UP INTERMITTENTLY WHICH CAUSES THE SEAT BELT WARNING SYSTEM TO ACTIVATE. DEALERSHIP REPLACED GUIDE RAIL ONCE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND ONCE ON THE DRIVER SIDE. *MR *NLM

I HAD A SEVERE PROBLEM MOVING THE TRANSMISSION FROM PARK TO DRIVE. THE SHIFT BOX IS POSITIONED DIRECTLY UNDER THE DRINK HOLDER.

I SPRAYED A DROP OF CLEANER AND THE SHIFT HAS WORKED FLAWLESSLY EVER SINCE. NISSAN STOLE THE $40. *AK

AIR BAG LIGHT HAS BEEN BLINKING FOR A YEAR OR MORE. DEALER WILL NOT REPLACE AIR BAG SYSTEM AT THEIR COST. ONLY SOLUTION IS A TOTAL REPLACEMENT. WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. THERE WAS NO EXPLANATION WHAT CAUSED LIGHT TO BLINK.*AK
