2008 Nissan Altima complaints

DASH OF VEHICLE BECAME STICKY TO THE TOUCH-SEEMED MELTED. THIS CAUSES A SHEEN THAT WHEN REFLECTED ONTO THE WINDSHIELD FORMS AN UNSAFE GLARE WHEN DRIVING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INTELLIGENT KEY WOULD NOT UNLOCK THE DOORS FOR A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. AFTER THE DOORS WERE UNLOCKED, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE BUT THE NO KEY WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT THEN CHANGED THE BATTERIES IN THE KEY FOB BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I HAVE TRIED TO START THE CAR BUT THE BRAKE RESISTS BEING PRESSED IN. I PRESS THE PUSH TO START BUTTON BUT THE CAR DOES NOT START, ONLY THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS AND RADIO COME ON (AS THOUGH I AM NOT PUSHING THE BREAK IN). I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY BRAKE SWITCH AND HARNESS FOR THE LOW, LOW PRICE OF $500. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT SO THEY CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY NISSAN IMMEDIATELY, AS I SEE ALL OVER THE WEB THAT EVERYONE WITH A 2007 OR 2008 ALTIMA IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. WHAT ARE RECALLS FOR EXCEPT FOR PRECISELY THIS TYPE OF ISSUE?? *TR

INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM LIGHT IS ON AND CAR WILL NOT START. BRAKE WILL NOT FULLY PRESS AND ENGINE DOES NOT RESPOND WHEN BUTTON IS PUSHED. ALL DASH LIGHTS/INDICATORS COME ON, AS WELL AS LIGHTS AND RADIO. IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN NISSAN ALTIMAS REGARDLESS OF THE YEAR MODEL. *TR

POWER DOOR LOCKS MALFUNCTIONING ON 3 OF THE 4 DOORS. DEPENDING ON DAY, SOMETIMES ONE OR MORE LOCKS WILL NOT LOCK WHEN USING KEY FOB OR WHEN USING POWER LOCK BUTTON ON DRIVER DOOR. AT OTHER TIMES, ONE OR MORE LOCKS WILL NOT OPEN WHEN USING KEY FOB OR WHEN USING POWER LOCK BUTTON ON DRIVER DOOR. I AM FEARFUL THAT AFTER A CRASH I WILL TRY TO UNLOCK DOORS TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE ALSO FOUND MY DOORS UNLOCKED WHEN RETURNING TO MY VEHICLE, EVEN AFTER HITTING THE LOCK BUTTON WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE. I AM FEARFUL THAT A CAR THIEF OR MURDERER MAY HAVE ACCESS TO MY VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. ADDITIONALLY, I HAVE TRIED TO ACCESS MY VEHICLE QUICKLY IN DANGEROUS NEIGHBORHOODS, BUT I'VE HAD TO TRY MULTIPLE TIMES TO UNLOCK THE DOORS. *TR

THE AUTOMATIC DOOR SYSTEM IN THIS CAR IS NON-FUNCTIONAL, ALL 4 DOOR DO NOT LOCK OR OPEN. IT HAS TO BE DONE MANUALLY. *TR

DRIVER DOOR POWER WINDOW CONTROL PANEL NOT WORKING TO OPERATE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW AT ALL. *TR

I DROVE MY CAR YESTERDAY WITHOUT ANY INCIDENTS. I HAVE NOTICED THIS "KEY" SYMBOL ON DASH WARNING LIGHT INDICATING I NEEDED TO INSERT THE KEY INTO THE CAR IN ORDER TO START THE CAR FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS. THERE IS NO DIAGNOSTIC CODE AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP AT NISSAN THAT IT WAS JUST INDICATING LOW BATTERY ON THE KEY REMOTE (EVEN THO I JUST REPLACED THE BATTERY IN NOVEMBER). I WENT TO START MY CAR THIS MORNING AND ALTHOUGH THE DASH LIGHTS UP, THE CAR WILL NOT START. I TRIED TO JUMP START IT AND STILL WOULDN'T START. THE BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON AND THE DASH LIGHTS UP, BUT THE CAR WILL NOT TURN OVER AT ALL. THERE ISN'T A FAST CLICKING SOUND LIKE IT COULD BE THE STARTER. THE KEY DOESN'T WORK TO UNLOCK THE DOORS OR THE TRUNK EITHER. APPARENTLY THIS IS AS A RESULT OF A FAULTY STEERING LOCK UNIT. *TR

MY DASHBOARD STARTED TO MELT WITH THE RISING TEMPERATURES THIS SUMMER AND IS SPREADING AND GETTING WORSE AS THE TEMPERATURE RISES...... WHICH IS CAUSED BY THE SUBSTANDARD MATERIALS THEY USED TO MANUFACTURE THE DASHBOARD... <<<< IN THIS DAY AND AGE, WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE >>>> AND HAS DEVELOPED A SHEEN THAT IS REFLECTING A LARGE GLARE BACK AT THE WINDSHIELD WHICH MAKES IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE ON SUNLIT DAYS. *TR

I'VE BEEN HAVING AN ISSUE WITH MY 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA DASHBOARD MELTING AND CAUSING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD THAT IMPAIRS DRIVING ABILITY. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE ON THE ROAD, AND VISIBILITY CAN OFTEN BECOME AN ISSUE WHEN TEMPERATURES ARE HIGH. *TR

REAR SWAY BAR SNAPPED ON DRIVERS SIDE. BAR IS HOLLOW. CAR IS DRIVEN ON FREEWAYS 90% OF THE TIME, SO NO HARD TURNS. *TR

I HAD ONLY ONE ISSUE WITH MY 08 ALTIMA. THE CAR WOULD OCCASIONALLY NOT RECOGNIZE EITHER OF THE KEY-FOBS FOR WHAT SEEMED LIKE NO REASON. IT DID NOT SEEM TO MATTER WHAT TIME OF DAY, TEMP., OR WEATHER. I EVEN REPLACED THE BATTERIES OF THE KEY-FOBS AND THE CARS BATTERY AS WELL. (WHICH WAS SUGGESTED AS THE FIRST TRY TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM). ON MAY 3, 2013 WITH ABOUT 66,000 MILES OR SO (STILL A BABY AS FAR AS CAR MILEAGE GOES) I HAD NO ISSUES STARTING THE CAR OR WITH IT RECOGNIZING THE KEY-FOB. THE 'ISSUE" HAPPENED AS I WAS MAKING A LANE CHANGE. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL THE CAR CAUSING US (2 CHILDREN AND MYSELF) TO CRASH. MY CAR WAS TOTALED... AND AFTER THIS EXPERIENCE I WILL NOT BE PURCHASING OR RIDING IN ANOTHER NISSAN AGAIN. I'M CERTAIN HAD I BEEN ON A MAJOR HWY WHEN THIS OCCURRED WE WOULD HAVE DIED AND OTHERS INJURED/DEAD AS WELL. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO START VEHICLE WITH THE KEYLESS FEATURE OR BY USING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. THE CONTACT HAD TO WAIT A CERTAIN PERIOD OF TIME BEFORE BEING ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TESTING WHERE THE BRAKE SWITCH WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 27,750.

MY BRAKE LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS ON AND OFF. I HAD LESS THAN 25K MILES ON MY CAR. I AM REPORTING THIS BECAUSE I HAVE READ OF NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS RE THIS ON THE INTERNET BUT NO KNOWN RECALL BY NISSAN. APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND BRAKE FLUID IS LEAKING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PUSH-TO-START SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED AND THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE STARTED. THE CONTACT DID NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THE CONTACT RAN AN INDEPENDENT DIAGNOSTIC TEST, WHICH DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS A DEFECT IN THE STEERING COLUMN, WHICH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND WAS ADVISED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

I OWN A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA COUPE. THE DASHBOARD WHICH IS THE ORIGINAL HAS BEGUN TO MELT AND THE GLARE IS VERY BAD. I HAVE NOT ADDED ANY SOLVENTS OR CHEMICALS TO THE DASHBOARD. I FIND IT HARD TO DRIVE ON SUNNY DAYS DUE TO MY WINDSHIELD REFLECTING THE GLARE CAUSED BY THE MELTING DASHBOARD. THIS PROBLEM COULD HAVE CAUSED ME TO BE IN NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS. I HAVE SEARCHED FOR A REMEDY TO THIS PROBLEM YET THE ONLY ONE IS TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD AND I IMAGINE THIS WOULD JUST HAPPEN AGAIN DUE TO THE MATERIAL THE DASHBOARD IS MADE FROM. I WOULD HOPE NISSAN RECALLS THESE DASHBOARDS AND MAKES NEW ONES. I HAVE ALSO LOOKED INTO THIS AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. *TR

I THINK MY CAR HAS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE WHEELS ARE LIGHT, WHENEVER THERE IS A LIGHT SNOW, RAIN, WIND IT SLIPS A LOT. I DRIVE 90 MILES A DAY FOR WORK AND I AM REALLY CONCERN ABOUT MY SAFETY. JULY 26TH, 2012 WAS A RAINY AND WINDY DAY AND MY CAR SLEPT, I WASN'T SPEEDING AT ALL. ALL ALTIMA OWNERS SAY THE SAME. NISSAN NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. *TR

3 UNIROYAL 215 60R 16 94T DOT# Y9X8VNUU 4110 HAVE DEVELOPED A SMALL FLAT SPOT ON INSIDE OF TIRES APPROXIMATELY 2 INCHES FROM OUTSIDE OF TIRE TOWARDS MIDDLE OF TIRE. LOOKS TO ME LIKE THE BEGINNING OF SEPARATION.THESE TIRES HAVE A 80000 MILE WARRANTY. TIRES NOW HAVE ABOUT 25000 TO25500MILES ON THEM THIS DATE. TIRES HAVE BEEN ROTATED AT EVERY 5000 MILES. AIR PRESSURE HAS BEEN KEPT A CONSISTENT 40LBS.ONE TIRE ON VEHICLE IS IN FINE SHAPE BUT WITH A DIFFERENT DOT NUMBER WHICH ISY9X8 UN11 4910. CALLED WAL-MART AND THEY SAID THEY NEED TO SEE TIRES. THEY ALSO SAID THEY DON'T CARRY THAT TIRE ANYMORE1. I'M VERY CURIOUS WHY? WILL TAKE CAR DOWN TO THEM THIS WEEK AND SEE WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY. *TR

IN DECEMBER OF 2012 MY CAR STARTED TO GIVE ME PROBLEMS WITH STARTING. (45000 MILES)I PUSH THE BRAKE AND PUSH TO START BUTTON, BUT ONLY THE LIGHTS COME ON. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER, AND THEY SAID IT IS A BRAKE SWITCH PROBLEMS, AND THAT OTHERS HAVE COME IN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM ON THE 2007 AND 2008 ALTIMA. THEY FIX THE PROBLEM FOR $268 WHICH WAS A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY, BECAUSE IN APRIL 2013 AND THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENING AGAIN.(48000 MILES) I HAD THE CAR TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACE THE BRAKE SWITCH FOR ME FOR FREE THIS TIME, AND SAID THAT IT MAYBE A BIGGER PROBLEM SUCH AS THE SUB HARNESS FOR THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH. BUT I WILL HAVE TO PAY $125 FOR THE DIAGNOSIS CHARGE AND I TOLD THEM TO CALL THE CORPORATE OFFICE HAVE THE ALTIMAS RECALLED AND SOME OTHER "KIND WORDS". I READ ONLINE FROM VARIOUS POSTS THAT OTHERS ALTIMAS 2007 AND 2008 ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. SO FOR NOW I AM LEFT TO PAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM OUT MY POCKET WHICH IS A COMPLETE HEADACHE, BECAUSE NISSAN SHOULD BE FULLY AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA IS MELTING. I HAVE NEVER APPLIED ANY CHEMICAL CLEANING SOLUTIONS TO THE DASHBOARD AND I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW. THE INTENSE GLARE FROM THE MELTING DASH BOARD IS SO INTENSE THAT I HAVE ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS ALMOST BEEN INVOLVED IN ACCIDENTS. I AM ALSO CONCERNED THAT THIS DEFECT COULD CAUSE A FIRE IN THE VEHICLE. THE NISSAN CLAIMS DEPARTMENT STATES THAT THE MELTING DASHBOARD IS NOT COVERED BECAUSE THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED AND THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS TO OF NEVER SEEN A DASHBOARD MELT. AN INTERNET INFORMATION SEARCH FOR "2008 NISSAN ALTIMA DASHBOARD MELTING" REVEALS NUMEROUS OTHER 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS DEALING WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED ONCE BEFORE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE BELTS THAT WERE USED IN THE TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT THE STEERING LOCK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 129,000. *TR

I WENT TO HAVE MY FLUIDS CHANGED AND MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE REAR SWAY BAR ON MY CAR WAS SNAPPED. I CHECKED ONLINE AND IT LOOKS LIKE MANY OTHER NISSAN OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT IN THE PART THAT NISSAN SHOULD FIX. THIS SHOULD PART SHOULD BE RECALLED. THANK YOU *TR

BACKING UP IN A PARKING LOT, I HEARD A LOUD POP AND FOUND THAT I COULD NOT STEER THE VEHICLE. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO HAD TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING RACK. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT DISPLAYING OFF ...STAYED OFF WHEN ANYONE HEAVIER THAN 50LBS SAT IN IT..I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL INVOLVING THIS SITUATION FOR MY MODEL..2008 NISSAN ALTIMA..I TOOK IT TO WOODBURY NISSAN AND WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT AFFECTED AND FOR APPROXIMATELY 1000 DOLLARS THEY WOULD FIX IT?!!! THIS WAS TOTALLY AN UNSATISFACTORY ANSWER AND I CONTACTED THE NORTHEAST REGIONAL SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR THEM TO TELL ME THE SAME THING?!!! I RECENTLY WENT ON THIS SIGHT TO FIND THAT THE RECALL IS EXACTLY WHAT THE ISSUE IS? PLEASE HELP ME TO GET THIS SITUATION RECTIFIED AS IT SEEMS THAT NISSAN DOES NOT WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PRODUCT THAT THEY MAKE OR PRODUCTS INSTALLED IN THEYRE VEHICLES...THANK YOU VERY MUCH [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

DROVE CAR TO WORK. AFTER 3 HOURS OF WORK WENT TO START CAR, WAS ABLE TO OPEN DOOR BUT COULD NOT START CAR. CHANGED BATTERIES IN SMART KEY, STILL WOULD NOT START. HAD CAR TOWED TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THEY INFORMED US THAT IT WAS THE STEERING LOCK MECHANISM, A $1400 DOLLAR REPAIR. I CALLED 1-800-NISSAN1 AND ARGUED WITH THEM FOR DAY'S. THEY FINALLY AGREED TO PAY FOR THE PARTS BUT I'M STUCK WITH $311 IN LABOR COSTS, AND WE LOST OUR CAR FOR NINE DAY'S..NISSAN REFUSED TO PAY FOR A RENTAL CAR. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AND PEOPLE NEED TO BE REIMBURSED. NISSAN WILL NOT GUARANTEE ME THAT THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN AS IT IS THE SAME PARTS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE!!!! *TR

I HAD NOTICED MONTHS AGO THAT THE BRAKE PERFORMANCE WAS NOT UP TO PAR, BUT AS CONDITIONS WERE GENERALLY DRY, IT WAS NOT A PROBLEM. I DID HAVE NEW ROTORS AND PADS INSTALLED AT 50,000 MILES, BUT HAD NO BETTER BRAKE PERFORMANCE. AS SOON AS WE EXPERIENCED SNOWY/ICY CONDITIONS IT BECAME A PROBLEM AS THE VEHICLE WOULD THEN SLIDE WITH THE BRAKES LOCKED, EVEN THOUGH SNOW TIRES WERE INSTALLED. I THEN DETERMINED THAT THE REAR BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING AT ALL, AND THE HASH MARKS FROM MANUFACTURES GRINDING ON THE NEW REAR DISCS WAS VIRTUALLY UNTOUCHED. THE REAR BRAKES WERE BLED, AND THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF AIR IN THE LINE WHICH POINTED TO A PROBLEM UPSTREAM. WITH THE REAR OF THE CAR RAISED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL FULLY DEPRESSED, THE REAR WHEELS COULD STILL BE TURNED BY HAND. THERE IS EVIDENCE THAT THE MASTER CYLINDER IS WEEPING AT THE BOOSTER. *TR

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG NOT ON" LIGHT HAS BEEN INTERMITTENTLY FLASHING. IT NOW REMAINS LIT (PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF) WHEN THE SEAT IS UNOCCUPIED AND WHEN A FULL GROWN ADULT OR CHILD SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I CALLED NISSAN AND GAVE THEM ALL MY INFORMATION AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL OF CAMPAIGN 08V521000, EVEN THOUGH THE CONDITIONS FOR REPAIR FIT THE DESCRIPTION. I WANT NISSAN TO REPAIR THIS MALFUNCTION SO THAT NO ONE HIS HURT IN MY CAR. *TR

I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR A REGULAR OIL CHANGE AND THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE SWAY BAR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT WAS BROKEN. HE SAID THAT IT HAD TO HAVE BEEN BROKEN FOR AWHILE BECAUSE THE ENDS WERE RUSTED AND THEY NORMALLY DO NOT CORRODE THAT QUICKLY. HE SAID THAT IT WAS A CLEAN BREAK. UNFORTUNATELY, IT IS NOT COVERED BY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY SO I WILL HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE 2007 MODEL. WELL, MINE WAS MANUFACTURED IN 2007. I AM A RESPONSIBLE DRIVER AND I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT SO IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME WHY THE PART WOULD BREAK UNLESS IT WAS DEFECTIVE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION AND THEY STATED THAT SENSOR IN THE SEAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND THEY STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT CARBON MONOXIDE WAS LEAKING INTO THE VENTS FROM THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHO STATED THAT THE MANIFOLD WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 87,000.

THE "PASSENGER AIRBAG NOT ON" LIGHT HAS BEEN INTERMITTENTLY FLASHING. IT NOW REMAINS LIT (PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF) WHEN THE SEAT IS UNOCCUPIED AND WHEN A FULL GROWN ADULT SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IN NOVEMBER OF 2012, THE AIRBAG LIGHT BEGAN TO FLASH ON THE DASHBOARD PANEL. I TOOK MY CAR INTO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR AFTER READING ABOUT CAMPAIGN 08V521000. AFTER DIAGNOSTICS WERE RAN BY THE TECHNICIAN, IT WAS FOUND THAT THE SRS SYSTEM WAS OFF, THE OCCUPANT SENSORY UNIT FAILED (DTC CODE B1018), AND A NEW SEAT CUSHION ASSEMBLY IS NEEDED TO REPAIR THE MALFUNCTION. NISSAN WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE MALFUNCTION AND DENIED COVERING THE REPAIR UNDER THE RECALL SINCE MY VIN DIDN'T FALL UNDER THE RECALL, EVEN THOUGH THE CONDITIONS FOR REPAIR FIT THE DESCRIPTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. I WANT NISSAN TO REPAIR THIS MALFUNCTION SO THAT I, AND MY PASSENGERS, CAN FEEL SAFE IN MY CAR. *TR

AFFECTED AREA OF VEHICLE :DASHBOARD THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD! THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED ON 7/14/2012. AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE, IT HAD APPROXIMATELY 36889 MILES. PURCHASED AS A PREVIOUSLY OWNED VEHICLE. ABOUT ONE MONTH AFTER, WE NOTICED THAT THE TOP OF THE DASHBOARD BY THE WINDSHIELD MATERIAL STARTED TO MELT. THE MATERIAL, IS LIKE A FOAM THAT GETS HOT, STICKY AND STARTS TO MELT. IT CAN START A FIRE ANY MINUTE. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, LOCATED AT SEMORAN BLVD IN ORLANDO, FL, THE SAME PLACE WE BOUGHT THE CAR TWO MONTHS BEFORE. THE STAFF AT THE DEALERSHIP PROCEEDED TO INFORM ME THAT, AFTER SEVERAL VISITS, THAT THEY NEVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A NISSAN AUTHORIZED SHOP. THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED US THAT FOR THE NISSAN MODEL FOR THAT YEAR 2008 THE MATERIAL USED WAS NOT THE STANDARD ONE. WE ARE REACHING OUT TO NISSAN TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS NOT ONLY AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE COVER BY THE MANUFACTURER AND PRESENT A SAFETY HAZARD TO MY FAMILY AND THE COMMUNITY IN GENERAL. IF WE DON'T HEAR FROM NISSAN IN 10 DAYS WE ARE GOING TO GO TO BBB AND THE GOVERNMENT. *TR UPDATED 02/06/13

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LAMP ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THE AIR BAG MODULE WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 112,900.

NOV 15, 2012 - HARRISON, NJ - STEERING I OWN A 2008 SALVAGE NISSAN ALTIMA. I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME EXTREMELY STIFF. I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE WHEEL SO THE VEHICLE TO COASTED TO A STOP. I NOTICED THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING FLUID IN THE VEHICLE. WHILE ADDING MORE POWER STEERING FLUID, HE NOTICED THE FLUID LEAKING DIRECTLY FROM THE POWER STEERING FLUID COMPARTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE I WAS TOLD THE POWER STEERING RACK FRACTURED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,040 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 44,000, I HAVEN'T TAKEN IT TO AUTHORIZE DEALER YET BUT SINCE IT'S A SALVAGE VEHICLE MOST LIKELY I'LL BE PAYING THE REPAIR OUT MY PACKET. *TR

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I WROTE THIS LETTER TO CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND TO THE CEO OF NISSAN: DEAR [XXX], MY NAME IS [XXX]AND I AM A CURRENT OWNER OF A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. FOR THE PAST THREE WEEKS, I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH NISSAN'S WEST COAST REGIONAL OFFICE IN REGARDS TO ISSUES I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING WITH MY CAR. I HAVE BEEN TREATED VERY POORLY AND I AM ASTONISHED AND DISGRACED BY BOTH ONE OF YOUR NISSAN DEALERSHIPS HERE IN LOS ANGELES AND BY YOUR CORPORATE REPRESENTATIVES. AS A LEADER MYSELF FOR ONE OF THE MOST VALUABLE COMPANY'S IN THE WORLD, I HAVE FOUND MYSELF AT A LOSS FOR WORDS. [XXX], A MAN WHO HAS BEEN EMPOWERED TO MAKE DECISIONS FOR NISSAN, STATED BY BRETT LOCHER, HIS SUPERVISOR, HAS DECIDED THAT NISSAN SHOULD NOT FIX THE ISSUE THAT I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING SINCE THE FIRST DAY I LEASED THE CAR. I WAS LIED TO BY THE SALES REPRESENTATIVE THAT MY VEHICLE HAD TEMPORARY BATTERY ISSUES. LATER ON IN THE YEAR, I EXPERIENCED SIMILAR ISSUES. I WAS ADVISED BY YOUR DEALERSHIP IN GLENDALE, CA TO PAY FOR A NEW BATTERY EXCHANGE. AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, I EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUES UNTIL RECENTLY WHEN MY CAR BECAME INACTIVE TO THE THE START/STOP IGNITION SWITCH NOT RESPONDING WITH THE BRAKE HARNESS. ALTHOUGH I ADVISED YOUR REPRESENTATIVES THAT I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM WAY BEFORE MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, THEY CONTINUED TO EXPLAIN TO ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO FIX THE CAR WITHOUT CHARGE BECAUSE NOW ITS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE CAR HAS AROUND 29,000 MILES A

PRESSED ON THE BRAKE WHILE PUSHING START BUTTON TO START CAR. CAR COULDN'T RECOGNIZE PRESSURE ON BRAKE AND WOULDN'T START. THIS HAPPENED ON 20+ OCCASIONS. AFTER A PERIOD OF 10-30 MINUTES EACH TIME, CAR WOULD EVENTUALLY START. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL SENDING UNIT WAS REPLACED ONCE ON THE VEHICLE. SIX MONTHS AFTER THE REPAIR, THE FUEL LEVEL GAUGE FAILED AND WAS DISPLAYING ONE QUARTER OF A TANK LESS THAN WHAT WAS ACTUALLY IN THE FUEL TANK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FORE REPAIRS OR INSPECTION OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 33,100. UPDATED 11/14/12*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THAT ON OCTOBER 8, 2012 THE PUT IN ANOTHER NEW FUEL PUMP. THE GAS GAUGE DID IMPROVED BUT, WHEN THE GAS GAUGE SHOULD READ HALF IT WILL SOMETIMES GO IN BETWEEN HALF AND 3/4 FULL. THE GAS GAUGE IS NOT VERY ACCURATE. UPDATED 11/19/2012 *JS

MY DAUGHTER AND I WERE ABOUT 30 MINUTES NORTH OF SAN ANTONIO ON OUR WAY HOME TO DALLAS. IN AN INSTANCE MY CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING AND THE MPH DECLINED. I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE THE CAR WAS STILL IN DRIVE AND IT WAS. I PULLED OVER AS TO NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND TURNED OFF MY CAR. IT TOOK A FEW TIMES TO START IT BACK AS IT WOULD START AND DIE. ABOUT THE 3RD TRY IT STARTED AND I REVVED THE GAS - IT SOUNDED NORMAL SO I DROVE TO AN AUTOZONE - IT WAS THE CLOSEST. I ASKED IF THEY WOULD CHECK THE COMPUTER TO SEE WHAT IT SAID AND THEY SAID IT WOULDN'T READ W/O A CODE. I TOOK THE CAR 10/1/12 TO BANKSTON NISSAN IN DALLAS (THE CAR DROVE FINE ALL THE WAY HOME) AND THEY SAID IT MAY BE TOO MUCH CVT FLUID. TOOK IT IN AND THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND THE FLUID WAS FINE - DID NOT NEED TO BE CHANGED OR ANYTHING. THE TECH SAID WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN TO PULL OVER AND HAVE IT TOWED TO A NISSAN - HE THINKS MAYBE SINCE I RESTARTED IT MAY HAVE CLEARED THE CODES. I ASKED IF HE THOUGHT IT WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND HE SAID YES. LOOKING ONLINE I SEE THIS SAME DESCRIPTION AND ISSUE OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I EVEN CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND RECEIVED A CALL BACK... THIS DID NOT HAPPEN BEFORE WHEN I HAD A MASTER CYLINDER ISSUE THAT WAS RECALLED 6 MONTHS LATER. NISSAN AT THAT TIME JUST SAID SORRY. THIS TIME I GOT A CALL BACK INQUIRING, BUT THEN STILL GET A SORRY. I THINK SOMETHING IS UP. THEY ALL SEEM TO KNOW THE ISSUE BUT W/O A CODE THEY WONT REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION UNDER WARRANTY. WHAT IF THERE IS

WHILE ACCELERATING FROM STOPPED TRAFFIC AT A CONTROLLED INTERSECTION, ACCELERATOR PEDAL BROKE OFF AT THE HUB. WHILE COASTING AT IDLE, DRIVER WAS ABLE TO CROSS LANES OF MOVING TRAFFIC TO SHOULDER AND THEN INTO PARKING LOT. INSPECTION REVEALED THAT BRAKE PEDAL IS MOUNTED TO A METAL ARM, BUT ACCELERATOR PIVOT HUB, ARM, AND PEDAL IS A SINGLE PIECE OF PLASTIC. *TR

THE PUSH START ENGINE IGNITION DEPENDS UPON PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO START THE VEHICLE. THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START BECAUSE THE BRAKE PEDAL COULD NOT BE PRESSED COMPLETELY IN ORDER FOR THE PUSH START TO OPERATE CORRECTLY. THIS HAS SINCE OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. WE MUST PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL A NUMBER OF TIMES IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO START. ACCORDING TO THE AUTO DEALER THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF ANY PROBLEM BUT UPON SEARCH OF THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND MANY CASES OF SIMILAR PROBLEM. NISSAN DEALER OFFERS TO REPLACE THE BRAKE PART AT A FEE. REQUEST THAT NISSAN TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR FAULTY BRAKE BUTTON THAT APPEARS TO BE CAUSING THIS PROBLEM ON MANY NISSAN ALTIMA VEHICLES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TRAVELING 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO CONFIRMED THAT THE MOTOR MOUNTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 52,385. UPDATED 10/17/12 *CN THE REPAIRS WERE MADE ON 09/25/12. UPDATED 10/22/12

I HAVE 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5 S WHICH HAS PUSH BUTTON START. I.E. PERSON HAS TO PUSH BUTTON AND PRESS BRAKE AT SAME TIME TO START THE ENGINE. THERE IS A SWITCH / SENSOR NEAR BRAKE PEDAL WHICH SENDS SIGNAL THAT BRAKE HAS BEEN PRESSED (AND ALSO TURNS ON REAR BRAKE LIGHTS). ONE DAY, ALL OF SUDDEN, WHEN I TRIED TO START CAR IT DIDN'T START. IT KEEP SAYING PRESS BRAKE (ACCESSORIES / RADIO ETC ALL TURN ON). SO THE CYCLE OF ACCESSORIES - ON- OFF KEPT ON HAPPENING. I THOUGHT BATTERY IS WEAK AND EVEN TRIED JUMP START. SO, AFTER TRYING PUSHING BRAKE + BUTTON FOR 30MINUTES , CAR FINALLY STARTED. THIS HAPPENED 2-3 TIMES AND I GOT VERY FRUSTRATED....FINALLY I STARTED READING ONLINE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. MANY PEOPLE HAVE POSTED SAME COMPLAIN / ISSUE. THEY SUGGESTED TO CHECK WHETHER REAR BRAKE LIGHTS TURN ON WHEN I PRESS BRAKE OR NOT.. IF NOT THEN THE SWITCH IS BAD .. I SAW MANY PEOPLE WERE ABLE TO FIX PROBLEM BY REPLACING SWITCH ($50 EXPENSE). I DID THE SAME AND CAR HAS BEEN WORKING FINE SINCE THEN (2-3 MONTHS). DEALER TRIES TO CHARGE $150 ONLY FOR SWITCH AND THEN $500 FOR OTHER STUFF TO ELIMINATE ROOT CAUSE OF ISSUE.. AS MANY PEOPLE ARE EFFECTED BY THIS ISSUE, I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT NISSAN SHOULD RECALL AND FIX THIS ISSUE AT THEIR COST. DEALERS ARE MAKING TONS OF MONEY OFF 2007-2008 ALTIMA OWNERS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE START THE VEHICLE AND TOOK IT TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE BRAKE SWITCH FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 61,310 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

VEHICLE WAS DRIVING ALONG WITH OTHER NORMAL TRAFFIC WHEN IT SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND STALLED ON AN INCLINE. DRIVER CAREFULLY STEERED VEHICLE TO A SAFE PLACE DOWNHILL AND CALLED A TOWING COMPANY TO TOW VEHICLE TO DRIVER'S RESIDENCE. UPON VISUAL INSPECTION OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT, A RUBBER SEAL ON THE ECM WIRING HARNESS WAS FOUND BUCKLED UP. ON TRYING TO REMOVE AND RE-INSERT THE HARNESS, IT WAS FOUND THAT ECM TERMINALS HAD CORRODED AND SOME PIN CONTACT HAD ACTUALLY FALLEN OFF. UPON DOING SOME RESEARCH, THIS WAS FOUND TO BE AN ISSUE COVERED UNDER FEDERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY. DRIVER/OWNER CALLED THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHO IMMEDIATELY, PRESUMABLY AT THEIR OWN EXPENSE, TOWED THE CAR TO THEIR FACILITY, CHECKED AND FOUND THE ECM TO BE FAULTY BUT BLAMED THE FAULTY WIRING HARNESS FOR THE FAILURE. AND FURTHER, THE DEALER CLAIMED SINCE THE HARNESS CARRIES A 3 YEAR WARRANTY AND WAS THE "CAUSE" OF THE ECM FAILURE, THIS WAS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER FEDERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY RESULTING IN A BILL OF $2,000+ FOR REPLACING THE FAULTY - CORRODED - WIRING HARNESS AND THE FAULTY ECM. ATTEMPTS TO HAVE THE DEALER DO MORE RESEARCH OR CONTACT NISSAN USA FOR ADVISE FELL ON DEAF EARS. IF THE CAR HAD STALLED ON HIGH SPEED AND CAUSED FATALITIES ON THE HIGHWAY, WOULD THESE REPAIRS THEN HAVE BEEN "PART" OF FEDERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR PUBLICITY PURPOSES? IT IS OUT OF SHEER LUCK THAT 1. THE CAR STALLED WHILE GOING DOWNHILL AND, 2. THE CAR WAS TRAVELING AT 40 MILES PER HOUR. I DESPERATELY NEED ADVI

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AS SHE ATTEMPTED TO USE THE PUSH BUTTON IGNITION START AND APPLIED THE BRAKES, THE BRAKES SEIZED ABNORMALLY AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT START. THE CONTACT PLAYED AROUND WITH SEVERAL WIRES ABOVE THE BRAKE PEDAL TO GET THE VEHICLE TO START HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND PROVIDED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 80,000.

PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, NOTICED FROM START THAT IT HAD AN ISSUE WITH ACCELERATION. AT AN EASY(NORMAL)ACCELERATION THE VEHICLE HESITATES AND/OR SURGES BETWEEN 25 -40 MPH. ONCE PASSED 40MPH OR SO IT CLEARS UP. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES. I HAVE EVEN REFERENCED TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN NTB10-121B, TO THE DEALER. WORK WAS SUPPOSEDLY PERFORMED PER BULLETIN BUT MADE NO DIFFERENCE. HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SERVICE MANAGER THAT IT A NORMAL OPERATING CHARACTERISTIC. BULLETIN STATES THAT THIS IS "NORMAL." I AM SURE THAT THIS WAS NOT STATED TO CAR BUYER BEFORE PURCHASE. THIS HESITATION IS UNPREDICTABLE AND HAS CAUSED SEVERAL NEAR MISSES IN REGARDS TO ACCIDENTS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE FAILS TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY. THIS "NORMAL OPERATION" IS A DEFICIENCY THAT NISSAN IS AWARE OF AND HAS PROVIDED LITTLE OR NO RESOLUTION. HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN CORPORATE AND HAVE RECEIVED LITTLE IF ANY CONSIDERATION OR CONCERN FOR ISSUE. THE RESPONSE I RECEIVE IS "IF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAYS THIS IS NORMAL OPERATION THEN IT IS NORMAL OPERATION." THE "NORMAL OPERATION" CAUSES THIS VEHICLE TO BE DANGEROUS AND UNPREDICTABLY UNRELIABLE. IT NEEDS TO BE EXAMINED MUCH FURTHER AND A REMEDY NEEDS TO BE CREATED, DESIGNED, DEVISED OR DEVELOPED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR NORMALLY WHEN I NOTICED THE LIGHT " CHECK ENGINE SOON" TURNED ON. I STOPPED THE CAR AT TIRES PLUS AND ASKED TO CHECK THE OIL. THE DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THERE WAS NO OIL CIRCULATION. I WAS ADVISED TO NOT DRIVE THE CAR AND TOW IT TO THE NISSAN DEALER. TIRES PLUS ALSO PROVIDED ME WITH A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ISSUED BY NISSAN (CLASSIFICATION EC07-014, REFERENCE # NTB08-17, ISSUED ON JANUARY 22ND, 2008) REPORTING PROBLEMS WITH THE IVT SOLENOID VALVE FOR SOME VEHICLESMANUFACTURED IN 2008. MY VIN WAS INCLUDED IN THAT RANGE OF VINS INFORMED IN THE TECHNICAL BULLETIN. I TOWED THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND CONTACTED CONSUMER AFFAIRS. NISSAN IS REJECTING THE CLAIM BECAUSE THE CAR IS OUT OF THE WARRANTY. ALSO, NISSAN IS SAYING THAT THE PROBLEM WAS ABSENCE OF OIL AND THEY FOUND SLUDGE. THEY ARE ASKING ME ASSUME THE COSTS IF THEY OPEN THE ENGINE TO INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM.I AM AFRAID THAT THE ENGINE IS DAMAGED. *TR

I HAVE EXPERIENCED SEVERAL INCIDENCES WHERE WHEN PRESSING THE BRAKE & TRYING TO START THE CAR (BY THE PUSH START IGNITION) THE CAR WILL NOT TURN OVER. ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS IN THE VEHICLE WILL TURN ON (RADIO, POWER WINDOWS, AIR, ETC) BUT THE CAR WILL NOT START. I'VE HAD THE BATTERY TESTED NUMEROUS TIMES AND IT ALWAYS PASSES AS A GOOD BATTERY. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, I FOUND SEVERAL FORUMS WHERE OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR 2008 NISSAN ALTIMAS. FROM THE SOUNDS OF IT, IT MIGHT BE A PROBLEM WITH A BRAKE CABLE. WITH AS MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS THAT I'VE SEEN ON THIS, HOW COME THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ISSUED? *TR

THE PASSENGER SEAT DOES NOT ALWAYS DETECT AN ADULT SITTING IN THE SEAT. THE "PASSENGER AIRBAG NOT ON" LIGHT COMES ON, SOMETIMES FLICKERS ON AND OFF AND ON AGAIN, WHEN AN ADULT IS SITTING IN THAT SEAT. THE SYMPTOMS APPEAR TO BE IDENTICAL TO CAMPAIGN 08V521000, BUT NISSAN SAYS MY VIN IS NOT EFFECTED. THE AIRBAG HAS NOT DEPLOYED, SO I HAVE NO WAY TO KNOW IF IT WILL WORK OR NOT, BUT SINCE THERE IS A PARTIAL RECALL UNDERWAY FOR THIS VERY THING, I BELIEVE THAT THE AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. *TR

THE LEFT REAR TORSION/ANT-ISWAY BAR SUSTAINED COMPLETE FRACTURE AT THE END. NOTHING HIT IT. IT APPEARED TO BE DUE TO CORROSION. IT WAS INSPECTED BY CONYERS NISSAN SERVICE AND THE ADVISOR AGREED THIS WAS PROBABLY DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECT. *TR
