2013 Nissan Altima complaints

BACKING DOWN A DRIVEWAY AND IT FELT LIKE I HAD HIT SOMETHING, OR WAS PUSHING IT. THERE WAS NOTHING UNDER OR BEHIND THE CAR. THE PASSENGER REAR CONTROL ARM BROKE.

THE LOW BEAMS FOR MY 2013 ALTIMA SL HAVE BECOME TOO DIM FOR ME TO SEE AT NIGHT. I HAVE HAD TO START USING THE HIGH BEAMS TO SEE AT NIGHT WHICH COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR OTHER DRIVERS, BUT IF I DIDN'T USE THEM I COULD CRASH DUE TO POOR VISIBILITY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. AFTER RESEARCHING THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT BECAME AWARE THAT THE INTERIOR MATERIAL HEADLIGHT HOUSING DETERIORATED OVER TIME AND THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE HEADLIGHTS WERE NOR REPLACED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 137,000.

HAVE BEEN WAITING OVER 6 MONTHS FOR RESOLUTION REPAIR TO THE HOOD LATCH, I AM LOOSING INCOME WAITING ON RECALL REPAIR

LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE HORRIBLE YOU CANNOT SEE 1FT IN FRONT OF YOU THIS IS A MAJOR SAFTEY ISSUE AND SOMEONE IS GOING END UP GETTING IN A MAJOR WRECK IF THIS ISSUE IS NOT RECALLED

THE HEADLIGHT SLOWLY LOST THEIR ABILITY TO REFLECT LIGHT FROM THE BULB. THEY STARTED BRIGHT WHEN I OWNED THE CAR BUT SLOWLY BECAME MORE DIM AS TIME WENT ON. I REALIZE THAT HALOGEN BULBS WILL DO THAT, BUT THIS WASN'T THE RESULT OF THE BULB. THE REFLECTIVE COATING INSIDE OF THE LOW BEAM PROJECTOR HAD STARTED TO COME OFF AND THE PROJECTOR WAS NOT PROJECTING LIGHT AS IT SHOULD. IT BECAME SO DIM THAT I COULD BARELY SEE AT NIGHT, IF THE ROADS WERE NOT LIT UP. IT WASN'T MUCH OF A PROBLEM IF I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A LIGHTED CITY, BUT IF I WAS ON BACK COUNTRY ROADS, I COULDN'T SEE MORE THAN FORTY FEET AHEAD. I HAVE REPLACED BOTH HOUSINGS AND I WAS ABLE TO SEE MUCH FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD. I TRIED PUTTING A NEW BULB IN THE OLD HOUSING, BUT IT STILL FAILED TO REFLECT THE LIGHT. I HAVE PICTURES OF OUTSIDE ONE OF THE HEADLIGHTS AND A PICTURE OF INSIDE THE REFLECTOR. IT SHOWS WHERE THE REFLECTIVE COATING WAS COMING OFF. THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH NISSAN ALTIMAS THAT HAVE BOTH HALOGEN AND XENON HEADLIGHTS. I ATTACHED THE PICTURES TO MY COMPLAINT. THIS IS NOT A ONE TIME INCIDENT, BUT RATHER AN ONGOING ISSUE THAT PROGRESSIVE GOT WORSE UNTIL THE FAULTY PARTS WERE REPLACED.

HEADLIGHTS EXTREMELY DIM CAUSING NIGHT DRIVING HAZARD. ISSUE IS DUE TO DEGRADATION OF REFLECTOR IN HEADLIGHT HOUSING. I HAD TO REPLACE BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES TO RESOLVE SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE CAR. THIS IS APPARENTLY A PRONOUNCED PROBLEM WITH NISSAN ALTIMAS PER NISSAN ONLINE FORUMS. PHOTO SHOWS REPLACEMENT HEADLIGHT ON LEFT AND THE ORIGINAL DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHT REFLECTOR ON THE RIGHT.

ON MY WAY TO WORK LOWER CONTROL ARM BROKE WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE STREET JUST BEFORE I GOT ON THE HIGHWAY

THE CVT TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK AT ALL. I AM FORCED TO DEPRESS THE SHIFT OVERRIDE IN ORDER TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK EVERY TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE APPROACHING HER PARKED VEHICLE, SHE NOTICED THAT THE HOOD WAS SLIGHTLY OPENED. THE CONTACT STATED SHE WAS UNABLE TO CLOSE THE HOOD MANUALLY AND HAD TO CALL HER BROTHER TO CLOSE THE HOOD FOR HER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V315000 (LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT CALLED BARBERINO NISSAN (505 N COLONY RD, WALLINGFORD, CT 06492; (203) 265-1611) WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT PARTS WERE NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I HAVE HAD MY 2013 ALTIMA FOR 6 MONTHD. IT WAS MARYLAND STATE INSPECTED IN APRIL BEFORE MY TIME OF PURCHASE. TODAY OCT 23, 2020 I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 50 MPH ON MY WAY TO WORK. I HEARD A BANG SOUND AND ALL MY TRAC CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON MY DASHBOARD AND I LIST STEERING IN THE REAR. PULLED OVER AND FOUND THE REAR CONTROL ARM OR A FRAME IS TOTALLY RUSTED AND BROKE IN HALF WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS WELDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. THIS IS NOT SAFE AT ALL. BEING A BEGINNER DRIVER ESPECIALLY, I SEE ALL COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM. WHY IS NISSAN NOT HELPING?

STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT. MADE LEFT TURN CAR SHUDDERED SMOOTHED OUT AND DROVE 1 MILE AND PARKED CAR FOR 30 MINUTES AND GOT READY TO MOVE VEHICLE AND SHIFTED TO REVERSE AND ENGINE STALLED. STARTED ENGINE PUT TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE AND ENGINE STALLED. DEALER SAY'S TRANSMISSION IS BAD AND NEEDS REPLACED.

THE CAR WAS STATIONARY IN THE DRIVEWAY, WITH WHEEL WEDGES PLACED AT FRONT TIRES. IT WAS JACKED UP THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE WAS REMOVED TO PUT ON NEW BRAKES, ONLY TO FIND A BOLT HOLDING THE CALIPER ON TO THE BRACKET WAS BROKE OFF. THIS WARRANTS A GREAT SAFETY CONCERN. DO ALL THE OTHER ONES HAVE TO BE CHANGED?- IN ORDER TO PREVENT A SAFETY HAZARD.

ON ROUTE 414 HEADING SOUTH GOING ABOUT 49, MY HOOD POPPED OPEN AND BUSTED MY WINDSHIELD. NISSAN TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM AND THAT THEY COULD NOT HELP ME WITH FIXING, REFUNDING OR TRADING FOR ANOTHER CAR. I AM EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED THAT THEY WILL NOT HELP GET ME IN A SAFER CAR. I ALSO ASKED ABOUT A LOANER UNTIL THIS COULD BE FIXED AND THEY SAID NO.

AIRBAG SIGN CAME ON AT MILLAGE 112000 ALL OF A SUDDEN AND THE PASSENGER OCCUPANCY SENSOR TURN OFF AND ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. MECHANIC ARE RECOMMENDING TO REPLACE AIRBAG MODULE WHICH MIGHT COST COUPLE OF THOUSAND DOLLARS. PLEASE HELP ME! THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE SAYS B0028-13

THE HEADLIGHT PROJECTOR HOUSING HAS "FAILED" AFTER 6-7 YEARS. THE REFLECTIVE COATING IN THE PROJECTOR HOUSING NO LONGER WORKS PROPERLY, WITH ABSOLUTELY NO DAMAGE TO THEM. EVEN WITH BRAND NEW HEADLIGHT (LOWLIGHT) LED BULBS PUSHING 10,000 LUMENS, THE HEADLIGHTS BARELY PROJECT 30-50 FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR, AND DOES NOT ALLOW FOR PROPER LIGHTING AT NIGHT. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD AND NISSAN NEEDS TO SET A RECALL FOR THIS ON ALL 2013-2015 NISSAN ALTIMA(S). MANY PEOPLE ONLINE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS, AND NISSAN'S RESPONSE IS TO CHARGE PEOPLE UPWARDS OF $1000 TO REPLACE THE HEADLIGHTS COMPLETELY. THIS NEEDS TO BE FORCED AS A RECALL, PLEASE!

I HAVE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA S. IT HAS ~89K MILES ON IT. THE TRANSMISSION STOPPED WORKING ON 10/11/2020. HOW CAN NHTSA ASSIST? NISSAN REFUSED TO PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE. THE CVTS INSTALLED IN THE NISSAN ALTIMAS HAVE CAUSED A VARIETY OF PROBLEMS - SHAKING, LOSING ACCELERATION AND STALLING, AMONG OTHERS - ACCORDING TO OWNERS WHO ARE REGULARLY POSTING COMPLAINTS ON WEBSITES SUCH AS AUTONEWS.COM, CARCOMPLAINTS.COM, AND CARS.COM. NISSAN ALTIMA OWNERS HAVE SECURED A SETTLEMENT OFFER FROM THE CARMAKER WHICH WOULD RESOLVE CLAIMS THAT THE VEHICLES' TRANSMISSIONS FAIL PREMATURELY. LEAD PLAINTIFFS ALLEGED THAT 2013 THROUGH 2016 NISSAN ALTIMAS SUFFER FROM SHUDDERING, HESITATION, STALLING, AND NOISES STEMMING FROM DEFECTIVE CONTINUOUS VARIABLE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS.VACCORDING TO THE NISSAN CLASS ACTION, VEHICLES STALL UNEXPECTEDLY, CAUSING THEM TO STOP IN TRAFFIC WITHOUT ILLUMINATING THE BRAKE LIGHTS.VCONVERSELY, THE DEFECT COULD ALSO ALLEGEDLY CAUSE AN UNEXPECTED SURGE IN POWER, CAUSING DRIVERS TO LOSE CONTROL.VVDESPITE CONSUMER COMPLAINTS, NISSAN REPORTEDLY FORCED OWNERS TO PAY FOR A $3,000 FIX THAT OFTEN LEFT THEM WITH MORE DEFECTIVE PARTS.CASE # 42179365. DUE TO COVID, MY ISSUE SURFACED AFTER 7 YEAR DEADLINE ON MAY 11, 2020. THIS IS WRONG AND NISSAN WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. I TRIED TO WORK WITH MADISON AT NISSAN 615-725-7208. I AM HAVING THE WORK DONE BASED ON DIAGNOSIS FROM WRIGHT NISSAN. THE WORK WILL COST ME ABOUT $3,500. WIEGAND BROTHERS TRANSMISSION WILL REPLACE THE TRA

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM TO SAFELY SEE AT NIGHT.

CAR DOES NOT MOVE EVEN IF I PUT IT ON REVERSE OR DRIVE OR ANY OTHER GEAR. TOW IT TO NEAREST MECHANIC, WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION IS BLOWN.

MY HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR AT NIGHT FOR FEAR OF GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. I'VE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2013-2015 NISSANS HOWEVER NISSAN HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM WHICH IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITH MY HIGH BEAMS TO BE ABLE TO SEE WHICH PUTS OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD AT RISK. AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO CORRECT AN ISSUE THAT STEMS FROM A DEFECTIVE/POOR QUALITY PART WITHIN THE HEADLAMPS.

THE DIM LIGHTS ARE SO DIM I CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. I HAVE TO USE THE BRIGHT LIGHTS TO SEE., ESPECIALLY WHEN PASSING ANOTHER CAR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I'VE SPENT A TOTAL OF $410 ON BULBS RECOMMENDED BY A CERTIFIED MECHANIC AND THEY ARE STILL AWFUL. ALSO ONE SET WAS THE HIGHEST LUMENS OF LED LIGHTS. PLEASE RE ALL THESE LIGHTS BECAUSE THIS IS SO DANGEROUS TO OWNERS AS WELL AS THE DRIVERS WE MEET ON THE ROADS AT NIGHT. I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS SINCE 12/2019. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE LIGHT COMPLAINTS.

MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA SL KEEPS STALLING ON ME WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THE DECODER STATED IT WAS THE MAX AIR FLOW SENSOR, I REPLACED IT, I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAD A TUNE UP DONE EVEN THOUGH I HAVE LOW MILES. NO ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. I READ SOME REVIEWS AND I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH THE THE SAME CAR OR YEAR HAVING THIS ISSUE. YOU TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TELL ME NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT.

THE CHROME IN THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS TENDS TO BURN OUT QUICKLY WHICH AFFECTS THE PROJECTION. ACCORDING TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, THIS IS A KNOWN COSTLY REPAIR WITH 2013-2017 BUT MOSTLY AFFECTS THE 2013. THE REPAIR COSTS IS QUOTED AT $1119.85. WHEN THE HEADLAMPS BURN OUT THE CAR IS NOT DRIVABLE BECAUSE IT CANNOT PASS INSPECTION WHICH IS CURRENTLY MY ISSUE. I CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE THIS REPLACED WHICH UNFORTUNATELY AFFECTS MY EMPLOYMENT BECAUSE I CAN'T DRIVE TO WORK.

THE LOW BEAM ON THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM WE CANNOT DRIVE AT NIGHT. READING ONLINE IT WOULD SEEM THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM HOWEVER A BULB WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT HOUSING HAS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF THE INTERIOR PORTION WHERE THE BULB SETS IS DETERIORATING. . . STARTED NOTICING THIS 2 YEARS AGO AND IT GETTING WORSE.

AIRBAG LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF, IT STAYS ON SOLID RED. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND WAS INFORMED 2013 ALTIMA DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL FOR THE AIRBAG ISSUE.

THE LOW BEAM ON THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM WE CANNOT DRIVE AT NIGHT. THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ARE GREAT... READING ONLINE IT WOULD SEEM THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM HOWEVER A BULB WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT HOUSING HAS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF THE INTERIOR PORTION WHERE THE BULB SETS IS DETERIORATING... STARTED NOTICING THIS 2 YEARS AGO AND IT GETTING WORSE..

THE FLOORBOARD IS FULL OF WATER EVERY TIME IT RAINS. THE CAR SMELLS AND MOLD IS STARTING TO FORM. BOTH THE FRONT AND REAR FLOORBOARDS. IT WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY.

WILL NOT SHIFT OUT OF PARK, APPARENTLY IT IS A SOLENOID ISSUE THAT NISSAN WILL NOT RECALL.

NOTICED THAT THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT HAS BEEN STAYING ON NO MATTER IF SOMEONE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT OR NOT. GOING TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT BY THE DEALERSHIP WHO MAY CHARGE ME TO RUN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST.

I HAVE THE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA AND IT IS HAVING VERY OBVIOUS SUSPENSION ISSUES AS IT IS SQUEAKING AND POPPING WITH TURNS AND BUMPS. THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS CURRENTLY DESPITE PEOPLE SAYING THEIR WHEELS CAME OFF WHEN THEIRS BROKE. I AM VERY SCARED TO DRIVE MY CHILD IN THIS VEHICLE THAT NISSAN DEEMS SAFE.

I WAS REVERSING OUT OF A DRIVEWAY. DIDN'T HIT ANYTHING. HEARD A SMALL 'THUMP.' I GOT OUT AND CHECKED MY CAR. EVERYTHING LOOKED OK. THEN ABOUT 2 BLOCKS LATER, IN DRIVE, ON A SIDE STREET, MY CAR STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY, AS THOUGH I HAD BEEN HIT, BUT I WASN'T. IT WAS LIKE THE WORST ROLLER COASTER EVER MADE. LOUD AND EXTREMELY SHAKY. I GOT HOME AND AS IT WAS NIGHT AND DARK OUT, DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING. TODAY WHEN THE DAYLIGHT CAME OUT, I NOTICED MY REAR PASSENGER TIRE LEANING INWARDS 'DRASTICALLY. SO I LOOKED UNDER THE TIRE AREA AND THERE WAS A CORRODED PIECE OF METAL HANGING DOWN WITH MY SPRING LOOSE. MY FRIEND AND I SEARCHED EVERYWHERE AND COULDN'T FIND THE PART'13-14 NISSAN ALTIMA SEDAN REAR PASSENGER RIGHT LOWER MAIN SPRING SUPPORT ARM. I CALLED NISSAN AND WAS QUOTED $200 AND SOME CHANGE. OK, NOT TOO BAD... THEN I STARTED GOOGLING FOR A CHEAPER PRICE AND LO AND BEHOLD, I COME ACROSS A FEW SITES SAYING YOU GUYS ARE INVESTING THIS, AND I BELIEVE A USA TODAY ARTICLE SAID THERE WAS NO 'RECALL,' BUT THAT THEY WERE GOING TO HAVE ROUGHLY 200,000 CARS IN THE USA AND CANADA COME IN TO HAVE IT FIXED. I DID NOT GET NOTICE FOR THIS! I WAS LUCKILY ABOUT A MILE FROM HOME. BUT I COULD BARELY CONTROL THE CAR. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, THE LEFT SIDE (DRIVER REAR) IS SHOWING SIGNS OF THE SAME WEAR. I WAS DRIVING IDLE SPEED IN ORDER TO 'BE SAFE.' WHY WAS I NOT NOTIFIED?! AND WHY IS IT THAT WHEN I CALLED NISSAN, THEY DID NOT TELL ME THIS WAS A 'KNOWN ISSUE' AS THEY HAVE IN THE PAST? WHY, WHEN MY CAR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE A COMPLETE SAFETY HAZARD. IT IS LIKE I AM DRIVING WITHOUT ANY LIGHTS WHEN THEY ARE ON AND I CANNOT SEE AT ALL UNLESS I HAVE ON MY HIGH BEAMS. DRIVING WITH MY BRIGHTS ON ALL THE TIME AT NIGHT CAUSES ISSUES FOR THE DRIVERS AROUND ME. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILLED DUE TO THE LACK OF VISIBILITY. I HAVE HAD THE LIGHTS CHANGED AND THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM. PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING OF THE ISSUE ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND IT SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL BY NISSAN BEFORE THEY ARE SUED!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION FOR THE CONTACT SEE THE ROADWAY WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. THE DEALER AUTONATION FORD BROOKSVILLE (7200 BROAD STREET, BROOKSVILLE, FL 34601, (352) 419-0810) WAS CONTACTED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO REFERRED TO NHTSA FOR ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

WHEN TURN SIGNAL IS AUTOMATICALLY CANCELLED AS THE STEERING WHEEL IS STRAIGHTENED, SOMETIMES (NOT ALWAYS) IT ACTUATES THE 'LANE CHANGE' THREE-FLASH SIGNAL IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. FOR EXAMPLE, AFTER MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE SIGNAL CANCELS AND SIGNALS THREE FLASHES IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. THIS HAPPENS WHEN TURNING IN EITHER DIRECTION. IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES BUT DOES NOT HAPPEN AT EVERY TURN. I FEEL IT MAY BE A MALFUNCTION OF THE TURN SIGNAL ARM.

ALL INTERIOR DOOR LATCHES DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. DOORS DO NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE. A SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECT.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. FOG LIGHTS ARE BRIGHTER THAN LOW BEAMS. MUST DRIVE CAR WITH HIGH BEAMS ON TO SEE AT NIGHT. ILLEGAL TO DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS ON - FEAR TICKET FOR TRAFFIC VIOLATION. FEAR CAUSING AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF BLINDING ANOTHER ONCOMING DRIVER WITH HIGH BEAMS ON. HAD ONE LOW BEAM DIE WHILE ON A 250 MILE TRIP AND COULD NOT SEE AT NIGHT WITH ONLY ONE LOW BEAM ON. I HAVE HEARD OF OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR 2013-15 NISSAN ALTIMA HEADLAMPS BEING TOO DIM. (SERIES 5-?) BOUGHT CAR NEW IN 2014 AND HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH LIGHTS FOR THREE YEARS. PRELIMINARY REPORTS INDICATE PLASTIC REFLECTIVE BOWL IN HEADLAMP IS DEFECTIVE BECAUSE MATERIALS DEGRADE AND WEAR OUT OVER TIME. NISSAN HAS REMAINED SILENT AND DEALERSHIP WILL CHECK FOR MOISTURE AND STATE THAT HEADLAMPS ARE WITHING SPECS. THESE HEADLAMPS ARE DEFECTIVE AND THE NTSB SHOULD INVESTIGATE AND ISSUE A RECALL.- BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR DIES. I COULD NOT SEE PEDESTRIANS CROSSING THE ROAD LAST NIGHT WHILE MY LOW BEAMS WERE ON. MY VISION IS FINE AND MY SPEED WAS ONLY 30 MPH ON A CITY STREET, BUT PEDESTRIANS CROSSING THE ROAD WERE NOT SEEN BY MYSELF OR FRONT SEAT PASSENGER UNTIL IT WAS ALMOST TOO LATE. I JUST REPLACED THE HEADLAMPS WITH UPGRADED SYLVANIA BULBS NOT MORE THAN A WEEK AGO. NISSAN SHOULD REPLACE THE FRONT HEADLAMP LENSES ON BOTH THE LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE - WITHOUT CHARGE. A SAFETY RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED.

SHIFTER RELEASE IS STUCK

HELLO ITS SEPTEMBER NOW AND NISSAN HASNT FIXED THE HOOD LATCH RECALL YET CAN'T USE CAR NOW SINCE JUNE BECAUSE OF RECALL THEY TOLD ME IT WONT TAKE LONG BUT ITS TAKING LONG NOW

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE GEAR SHIFTER SEIZED WHILE IN THE PARK POSITION. THE DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO IMMEDIATELY SHIFT OUT OF THE PARK POSITION TO THE DRIVE POSITION. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT YET NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

DRIVING OUR VEHICLE PER USUAL, NO CRASHES, SAFELY MADE IT FROM POINT A TO B. THE NEXT MORNING, THE SENSOR FOR AIR BAGS COMES ON. IT CONTINUES TO STAY THERE WITH NO EXPLANATION FROM GOOGLE OTHER THAN THE SENSOR BEING AN ISSUE.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE HAVING NEVER DRIVEN IT AT NIGHT. UPON MY FIRST TIME DRIVING IT AT NIGHT, I LEARNED THAT THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE WILDLY INEFFECTIVE AND I COULD NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROAD MORE THAN 15 OR SO FEET IN FRONT OF ME. THIS MADE DRIVING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I WENT TO A DEALER AND HAD THEM REPLACE THE BULBS INSIDE THE ASSEMBLY, BUT SAW NO CHANGE IN THE EFFECTIVENESS. THE INSIDE OF THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS BURNED/DETERIORATED AND NO LONGER PROJECTS THE LIGHT FROM THE BULB. THE ONLY SOLUTION TO ALLOW SAFE DRIVING IN DARK CONDITIONS IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRETY OF THE FAULTY HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY ON BOTH SIDES.

PARTS OF THE SUSPENSION CORRODED AND WHEEL CAME OFF WHILE MY PREGNANT DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING

HEAD LIGHT BEAM IS TOO LOW.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE EXTREMELY DIM! IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITHOUT MY BRIGHTS ON. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFTEY HAZARD FOR ME AND OTHER DRIVERS AS WELL! MY EYESIGHT VISION IS CONSIDERED TO BE BETTER THAN AVERAGE AND EVEN WITH THAT I CAN'T DRIVE AT NIGHT UNLESS I HAVE MY BRIGHTS ON. I HAVE TRIED LED AND HID BULBS WITH NO IMPROVEMENT. PLEASE HELP FIX THIS PROBLEM!

FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG OCS DEFECT. NISSAN HAS DONE A RECALL RELATED TO THIS ISSUE BUT MY VEHICLE VIN NUMBER IS EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE BUT NOT COMING UP IN THE DEALERSHIP SYSTEM FOR THE RECALL. CAMPAIGN #14V138000
