2006 Nissan Altima complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS AT A DEALER FOR ROUTINE SERVICE, THE TECHNICIAN NOTICED EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION. THE CONTACT HAD TO CONSTANTLY REFILL THE VEHICLE WITH ENGINE OIL. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER, BUT THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE SERVICE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BY REPLACING THE BATTERY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER, AIR FUEL SENSOR, AND THE OXYGEN SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED FOR THE OIL LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 118,000.

DISCOVERED ROTTED FLOOR BOARDS. NISSAN HAS RECALLS FOR THIS ISSUE AND RESEARCHED HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS OF THIS ISSUE.

VEHICLE EXHIBITS SERIOUS RUSTING OF FLOORBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT. THE VEHICLE IS IN GREAT CONDITION OTHERWISE (NO VISIBLE RUST ON BODY PANELS) AND THE REST OF THE UNDERBODY IS IN GREAT CONDITION (MINIMAL CORROSION, AS EXPECTED FOR VEHICLE OF ITS AGE). PASSENGER SIDE FLOORBOARD IS NOTICEABLY SOFT ,AND RUSTED COMPLETELY THROUGH THE FLOOR PAN IN ONE SPOT (YOU CAN PUT A FINGER THROUGH IT IF CARPET IS REMOVED). THIS IS UNEXPECTED AS THE FLOOR PAN IS COATED WITH A RUBBERIZED UNDERBODY PROTECTANT IN THIS AREA. THE FLOOR PAN MUST BE REPLACED IN THIS AREA, BUT NISSAN ONLY SELLS THE ENTIRE FLOOR PAN FOR THE VEHICLE, WHICH IS QUITE COSTLY. I AM DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE I HAVE NO EVIDENCE WHICH INDICATES THIS ISSUE IS CAUSED BY ANY DAMAGE OR NEGLECT, IT SEEMS AS IF THIS IS DUE TO A COATING FAILURE OR MANUFACTURING DEFECT.

I HAVE A 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA AND MY PASSAGER FLOORBOARDS ARE RUSTED ALL THE WAY THROUGH. ITS SEEMS THAT ALOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THAT SAME ISSUE.

2006 NISSAN ALTIMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE ENGINE ISSUES AND CRANKSHAFT SENSORS RECALL. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF, WHILE DRIVING BELOW 30 MPH. THE CONSUMER DISCOVERED A RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED FOR HER MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR. HOWEVER, SHE WAS INFORMED THE RECALL COVERED SPECIFIC VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS AND HERS WAS NOT INCLUDED/ *JB

WHEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON, THE CAR SPEED SUDDENLY DROP TO BELOW 10 MILES PER HOUR. THIS HAPPENED TWICE: ONE WAS ON 03/14/2016, ANOTHER WAS TWO YEARS AGO. BOTH CASES HAPPENED ON LOCAL ROADS WITH SPEED LIMIT BELOW 50 MILES PER HOUR. I TURNED ON EMERGENCY LIGHT AND TRIED TO STOP THE CAR. TURNED OFF THE CAR, AND RESTARTED IT. THE CAR SPEED WAS BACK TO NORMAL.

THE ENGINE GOES OFF SUDDENLY IN THE MID OF THE TRAFFIC AT INTERSECTION, DURING TAKING CURVES. THE CAR GOES OUT OF POWER, BRAKES AND STEERING LOSE COMPLETE POWER. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AS ANY ONE CAN BACK END, HIT THE CAR, OR CAR CAN GO BACK ON RAMP OR CAN FALL OFF THE ROAD. IT CAN HAPPEN ANY TIME, NO ENGINE WARNING NO DIAGNOSTIC.

TAKATA CRANKSHAFT AND CAMSHAFT SENSORS. HAD BOTH OF THEM FAIL ON OUR ALTIMA IN PAST 2 YEARS AT THE COST OF $800. WHICH THE DEALER HAS MADE US PAY FOR. THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY LEAVE YOU STRANDED AND WILL NOT START AT ALL. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON TOO. CALLED FOR TOWING BUT THEN CAR "MIRACULOUSLY STARTED" AFTER STRANDED FOR 1 HOUR IN DANGEROUS LOCATION. DROVE DIRECTLY TO DEALER. WHO RAN TESTS AND DECLARED SENSOR FAULTY. DEALER CLAIMS THE VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL... WELL I THINK SOMEONE NEEDS TO CHECK THE DETAILS ON THIS. OBVIOUSLY THEY MISSED ALL OF THE OTHER VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THESE FAULTY SENSORS THAT WERE MANUFACTURED DURING THE SAME TIME. VERY UNHAPPY CUSTOMER

SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK IT IN FOR COMPUTER DIAGNOSTICS & IT SHOWED CAM SHAFT SENSOR ALIGNMENT. I WAS DRIVING AT THE TIME THE LIGHT CAME ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. THE FAILURE RECURRED ONCE A DAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS UNAWARE IF THE VIN WAS SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 07V527000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 182,786.

THE FRONT FLOOR PANS HAVE RUSTTED AWAY AND PART OF THE FLOOR IS MISSING DUE TO RUSTING. NISSAN IS VERY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND OFFERED TO INSTALL A FLOOR FIX AT A COST OF $700.

I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR USED. FELT VIBRATION IN ENGINE WAS TOLD IT WAS A MOTOR MOUNT. CHECKED ON LINE BECAUSE CAR SHIFTING HARD 3 DAYS AFTER PURCHASE TO FIND OUT IT HAS TRANSMISSION ISSUES THAT CAUSE MOTOR MOUNT WEAR AND TEAR AND REPLACEMENT AND MAY NEED TRANSMISSION REPLACED. NISSAN NEEDS TO FIX THIS ISSUE

NOTICED WHEN VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, A LARGE RUST HOLE UNDERNEATH PASSENGER SIDE FLOORMAT. PLASTIC LINER TORN AND CARPET VISIBLE FROM UNDERNEATH CAR. AFFECTED AREA IS BETWEEN 14-20". PASSENGER FOOT COULD POTENTIALLY FALL THROUGH FLOOR OF THE CAR WHILE IN MOTION.

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

WE PURCHASED AFFINITY TOURING FROM FIRESTONE IN GREENWOOD SC- 135805 P215/55R17 93T 70,000 MILE TIRES ON 7/19/14 WE HAD THEM ROTATED EVERY 6000-7000 MILES AND THE TIRES HAVE ONLY GOTTEN 25000 MILES ON THEM AND THEY HAVE NO TREAD HARDLY AT ALL ON ALL FOUR OF THEM AND THEY HAVE A VERY HARD BUMP AND ROAR GOING LESS THAN 35MPH, THE TIRES ROAD WELL FOR THE FIRST WEEK OR TWO THEN BECAME ROUGH RIDING TIRES CAUSING THE CAR TO BOUNCE REALLY HARD ABOVE 45MPH

I TOOK MY CAR TO A MECHANIC BECAUSE I WAS SMELLING SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF EXHAUST IN THE CAR CABIN WHILE DRIVING AND PARKED. THE MECHANIC IDENTIFIED A RUST HOLE IN MY EXHAUST JUST PAST THE FRONT CATALYTIC CONVERTER, BUT MORE TROUBLING WAS TWO HUGE HOLES IN THE FLOOR BOARDS ON THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. EACH RUST HOLE IS APPROXIMATELY 12 INCHES LONG X 4 INCHES WIDE AND THE PADDING AN CARPET CAN CLEARLY BE SEEN FROM UNDERNEATH. EVEN AFTER EXHAUST IS FIXED I AM STILL AT GREAT RISK OF ROAD DEBRIS AND MOISTURE ENTERING THE CABIN FROM BENEATH THE CAR. THIS CAR IS JUST 10 YEARS OLD AND THE REST OF THE BODY IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH LITTLE TO NO RUST. I LIVE IN A SALT BELT STATE BUT OTHER CARS OF THE SAME AGE DON'T SEEM TO HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. I'VE LEARNED THROUGH MEDIA AND WEB THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2002 - 2006 NISSAN ALTIMAS. I CONSIDER THESE HOLES TO BE A SAFETY CONCERN AND MANUFACTURER DEFECT. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HAVE A LOUD KNOCKING NOISE THAT WAS HEARD FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, BLACK SMOKE WAS OBSERVED COMING FROM THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE AS THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. NO FLAMES WERE VISIBLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PISTON HAD FRACTURED AND THE ENGINE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 06V223000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 95,000.

VEHICLE IS VIOLENTLY SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR. TRANSMISSION IS STARTING TO FAIL. VEHICLE HAS ONLY 91,000 MILES.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED MANY RUST ISSUES WITH MY 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA. BY FAR THE WORST IS THE RISK OF MY FEET GOING THROUGH THE FLOORMAT DUE TO RUST OF THE FLOORBOARDS. IT IS EXPERIENCED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, AS WELL AS A SLIGHT RUST OF THE PASSENGERS SIDE. I FEAR THAT I AM IN HARM AND CAN NOT AFFORD THE REPAIR TO MAKE SURE I AM SAFE IN MY CAR. I HAVE BEEN USING MY CAR LIGHTLY FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS

"TAKATA RECALL" I NEED TO FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST NISSAN FOR THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS, FIRST IS THE PAINT IN MY CAR. I JUST PURCHASED MY CAR 2 YEARS AGO AT A DEALER AND THE CARS PAINT AND CLEAR IS FADING AND MY CAR LOOKS UGLY, I HAVE QUOTED AT A PAINT BODY SHOP AND THEY TRYING TO CHARGE $800 OR MORE. I AM STILL PAYING THIS CAR AND DON'T APPRECIATE THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS A DEFECT FROM THE COMPANY. THE HEADLIGHT ARE AWFUL AND I CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT OR SPECIALLY IN THE RAIN AND AFRAID TO USE THE HIGH BEAMS TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS.

I WAS TOLD WHILE HAVING SERVICE AT NISSAN THAT BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR BOARDS WERE ROTTING AWAY, AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT MY OIL PAN WAS RUSTING OUT. THIS SHOULD OF BEEN A RECALL!!!!!!

THE CAR SUDDENLY DIED IN TRAFFIC AND I COULDN'T GET IT TO START. I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND PUSH IT OUT OF THE ROAD. THE GAS GAUGE WAS READING THAT IT HAD OVER A QUARTER TANK OF GAS WHEN IT WAS ACTUALLY EMPTY. IT CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF GAS IN TRAFFIC. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND COULD HAVE CAUSED ME TO GET INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. NO DAMAGE OR INJURIES OCCURRED IN THIS PARTICULAR INCIDENT, SO I DID NOT CONTACT POLICE.

I WAS DRIVING ON CRUISE CONTROL AT 70 MPH. THE CAR BUCKED, BUT KEPT GOING. I EXITED THE HIGHWAY A FEW MILES LATER AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. WITH CRUISE CONTROL NOW OFF, I ATTEMPTED TO PROCEED AS NORMAL, AND THE CAR LAGGED IN POWER. I ALMOST GOT BROAD SIDED AS THE CAR DIDN'T GO AS NORMAL. I PULLED OUT WITH A RIGHT ON RED. THE CAR WAS STUCK IN 5TH GEAR.

THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FRONT FLOOR PAN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,000.

DURING OIL CHANGE NOTICED THAT BOTH DRIVERS AND PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR PANS WERE RUSTED THROUGH COMPLETELY. ONLY THING LEFT WAS THE INTERIOR CARPET BETWEEN THE ROAD AND A DRIVER OR PASSENGER.

I LOOKED UNDER MY CAR TODAY AT A PARKING LOT AND FOUND OUT THAT BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE FRONT FLOOR BOARD IS RUSTING VERY HEAVILY. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND MANY COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE AND SAME PLACE IN THE CAR. MY CAR HAS NO RUST ANYWHERE ELSE BUT ONLY UNDER THE DRIVER SEAT AND FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I AM AFRAID THAT VERY SOON IT WILL DEVELOP INTO A HOLE IN MY CAR AND I WILL BE ABLE TO SEE THE ROAD UNDER MY FEET FROM INSIDE. THIS IS VERY TERRIFYING AND I BELIEVE THIS IS HIGH RISK SAFETY ISSUE. SINCE THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO MANY ALTIMA OWNERS, IT IS A DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING DEFECT.

INDIVIDUAL FROM NISSAN ACKNOWLEDGE HE WAS AWARE BUT THERE IS NO RECALL AT THIS TIME? JUST HOPE NO ONE IS INJURED OR KILLED WITH THIS TYPE OF SAFETY ISSUE. WOULD YOU SUGGEST I CONTACT STATE REP. TO INQUIRE AT THIS TIME?

I CURRENTLY HAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, I SCANNED AND PULLED THE CODE WITH MY OWN PERSONAL SCANNER THE CODE WAS P0507 (IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE) THE CODE WAS CLEARED, NOW ANOTHER CODE IS BEING THROWN WHICH IS THE TPS(THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR) AND THE IATS(INTAKE AIR TEMP SENSOR BANK 1) I HEARD THAT NISSIAN HAD A RECALL ON THIS MATTER SO I RESEARCHED IT WITH MY VIN NUMBER AND NOTHING SHOWED UP. I HEARD THE ECU NEEDS TO BE REPROGRAMMED AND THE PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED. THIS MATTER NEEDS TO BE ATTENDED TO BEFORE SOMETHING MORE SERIOUS HAPPENS TO ME OR MY FAMILY WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

THE PART OF THE FLOOR BOARDS DIRECTLY BENEATH WHERE BOTH THE DRIVER AND THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER WOULD NORMALLY PLACE THEIR FEET HAS RUSTED THROUGH TO THE EXTENT THAT ONLY CARPETING AND INSULATION MATERIAL PREVENTS THE FEET FROM GOING THROUGH THE FLOOR TO THE GROUND. THE LOCAL " CAROUSEL NISSAN " DEALERSHIP HAS TAKEN PHOTOS AND DOCUMENTED THE DAMAGE BUT WILL ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY. THE DAMAGE WAS NOTICED WHEN A PIECE OF THE CARPET OR INSULATION WAS SEEN HANGING UNDER THE CAR.

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

WIFE WAS COMING HOME FROM THE AIRPORT WHEN APPROACHING STOP SIGN THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN WITHOUT NOTICE. "NO BRAKES OR POWER STEERING". VEHICLE WAS PUSHED BY CITY WORKERS INTO PARKING AREA. LATER ON AFTER THE VEHICLE SAT IT STARTED AND WE WERE ABLE TO GET IT HOME. NEXT DAY I NOTICED THE ENGINE LIGHT ON! I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO CHECK THE CODES. CODES INDICATED IT COULD BE THE BATTERY OR A CRANK, CAM SENSOR. BATTERY SHOWED BAD. PURCHASE NEW BATTERY AND ASSUMED EVERYTHING IS OKAY. I DROVE THE VEHICLE DOWN TO A STORE AND WHEN I PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT IT STOPPED. LATER ON VEHICLE STARTED AND DROVE NEXT DOOR TO A AUTO DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP RAN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST INDICATING INTERNAL FAILURE IN CAM SENSOR. CODE P0340 STORED. VEHICLE REPAIRED.

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.

BOTH MY DRIVER AND PASSENGER FLOORBOARDS ARE COMPLETELY RUSTED OUT. I HAVE A 12" LONG HOLE ON ONE OF THE SIDES. NISSAN DOESN'T COVER IT BECAUSE IT'S NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. IT IS NOT SAFE BY ANY MEANS. I CAN PUT MY ENTIRE FOOT THROUGH THE HOLE! MY SEAT CAN BECOME LESS STABLE, FUMES CAN COME IN, WHO KNOWS. THE COST TO FIX IT IS MORE THAN THE CAR IS WORTH. NO RECALL PERIOD, AND THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. MY SISTER HAS THE SAME MAKE/MODEL/YEAR AND SHE WAS SHOCKED TO FIND OUT SHE HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. SAME SPOTS, SAME RUST. ALSO, BOTH CARS WERE GARAGED.

DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR PAN RUST THROUGH. IT APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN THE 2002 TO 2006 ALTIMA AND MAXIMA MODELS. A RECALL SHOULD BE PERFORMED. THIS PROBLEM IS A DANGER, AND VERY COSTLY TO REPAIR.

THE FLOORS BOARDS ON THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES HAVE RUSTED THROUGH CAUSING A PROBLEM WITH FUMES IN THE CAR

DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR BOARDS ARE BOTH RUSTED OUT. I'M WORRIED I WILL EVENTUALLY PUT MY FOOT THROUGH THE FLOOR.
