2013 Nissan Altima complaints

IN 2015 THE A/C COMPRESSOR WHEN OUT AND WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, THEN 21/2 YEARS LATER THE COMPRESSOR WENT OUT AGAIN AND NISSAN REFUSED TO REPAIR. TWO COMPRESSORS IN 5 YEARS AND THEY DIDN'T THINK THIS WAS A ISSUE. I END UP PAYING 1200 DOLLARS TO REPLACE AFTER 2/12 YEARS.

DIM LOW BEAM (PROJECTOR LENS) BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW IN JULY OF 2013. THE LOW BEAMS FUNCTIONED NORMAL FOR THE FIRST THREE YEARS THEN BECAME MORE AND MORE DIM. REPLACED THE LOW BEAM BULBS WITH BRIGHTER AFTERMARKET BULBS WHICH SEEMED TO ONLY MARGINALLY HELP. AS TIME WENT BY THE BRIGHTNESS STILL CONTINUED TO DIMINISH TO THE POINT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE AT NIGHT OR IN THE RAIN UNLESS KEPT ON HIGH BEAM. INTERNET RESEARCH REVEALED LITTLE UNTIL RECENTLY WHEN THE TOPIC ON A CAR FORUM REVEALED THAT THE PROJECTOR LENS COATING WAS DEFECTIVE AND IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY NISSAN WHICH THEY DENY. REPLACED BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES MYSELF WITH AN AFTERMARKET BRAND AND LOW BEAM BRIGHTNESS HAS RETURNED. THE LOW BEAM ISSUE IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE ACKNOWLEDGED BY NISSAN AND ADDRESSED ACCORDINGLY.

MY "VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY RECALLED TO REPROGRAM FRONT PASSENGER OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS) ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU). " I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR THE RECALL TO HAVE IT TAKEN CARE OF, BUT NOW I'M STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH THE OCS. CURRENTLY, THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, INDICATING THAT IT IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. IN ADDITION, WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AND I WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS LIT UP. THIS INDICATED THAT THE AIRBAG WAS OFF, DESPITE THE FACT THAT I WAS SITTING IN IT. AFTER TAKING THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS INFORMED THAT I NEEDED A NEW OCS CONTROL UNIT AS WELL AS TWO OCS SENSORS. I INFORMED THEM OF THE PREVIOUS RECALL ON THE OCS; HOWEVER, THEY SAID THIS WAS A SEPARATE ISSUE, SO I WAS GOING TO HAVE TO PAY AROUND $700. NISSAN ORIGINALLY SAID IN A LETTER THAT, "IF AT ANY TIME WITHIN THE NEXT 15 YEARS, THE OCS SYSTEM IN YOUR VEHICLE DOES NOT PERFORM AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, WE URGE YOU TO PLEASE SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT AT YOUR NEAREST NISSAN DEALER. THE DEALER CAN CHECK THE OCS SYSTEM IN YOUR VEHICLE AND, IF NEEDED, PERFORM A ONE-TIME RETROFIT TO THE OCS SYSTEM FREE OF CHARGE. " SINCE THE OCS IS STILL HAVING ISSUES AFTER THE ORIGINAL RECALL, I THOUGHT IT WAS IMPERATIVE TO REPORT THIS HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE AIRBAGS MIGHT NOT DEPLOY IF I WERE IN A CAR ACCIDENT, WHICH COULD CAUSE UNNECESSARY INJURIES OR EVEN DEATH. CLEARLY THERE ARE STILL UNRESOLVED ISSUES WITH THE OCS THAT NEED ATTENTION.

VEHICLE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE UNSAFE FOR NIGHT DRIVING THEY ARE TOO DIM. THEY HAVE PROGRESSIVELY WORSENED SINCE I BOUGHT A THE CAR NEW. I OFTEN HAVE TO RIDE WITH HIGH BEAMS ON FOR FEAR OF RUNNING OVER SOMETHING, OR RUNNING OFF THE ROAD BEING I CAN'T SEE WITH LOW BEAMS.

2013 NISSAN ALTIMA MOONROOF EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 75MPH. THERE WAS A LOUD POP AND AIR WAS HEARD ON ROOF. SAW FLYING DEBRIS FROM REARVIEW MIRROR WHILE TRYING TO PULL OVER TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED. PULLED OVER AND REALIZED LARGE CHUNKS OF THE TEMPERED GLASS WAS GONE. THERE WERE MINOR SCRATCHES ON THE TRUNK PAINT FROM THE DEBRIS HITTING IT AS IT FLEW OFF. THERE WAS VERY LITTLE TRAFFIC AROUND AND NO OVERPASSES. TEMPERATURES WEREN'T EXTREME AS IT WAS A MILDLY WARM FALL DAY (MID 60'S) AND ROADS WERE DRY. THE GLASS IS STICKING OUT ABOVE THE ROOF WHICH INDICATES THAT IT WAS AN EXPLOSION RATHER THAN SOMETHING CRASHING DOWN ON THE MOONROOF.

THE TRANSMISSION WAS WORKING FINE AS WE WERE RUNNING ERRANDS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR. THE CAR ALSO BEGAN TO SHAKE AND THEN STALL. ALL THIS HAPPENED IN MINUTES. THE CAR WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET CREATING AN UNSAFE POSITION. WE TOOK THE CAR TO AUTOZONE AFTER IT WOULD GO INTO GEAR AGAIN AND THEY PULLED A DIAGNOSTIC CODE OF P0776. THE CODE IS TRANSMISSION RELATED. THE CAR WAS DRIVEN ON CITY STREETS THAT NIGHT.

WHILE BACKING MY CAR OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, I HEARD A POP AND REAR OF THE CAR DROPPED. I GOT OUT AND SAW THE LEFT REAR OF THE CAR WAS LOWER, TOP OF TIRE NOT VISIBLE. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY CAR NEW (SEPT. 12, 2012) WAS ONLY 3 MILES AWAY ON SECONDARY ROADS, SO I TOOK MY CAR THERE TO BE LOOKED AT. THE DEALER CALLED ME BACK THE NEXT DAY AND TOLD ME THE LEFT REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM HAD BROKEN AND RIGHT REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM WAS CRACKING IN THE SAME PLACE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE SERVICE ADVISOR AND SERVICE MANAGER BOTH SAID THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN BEFORE ON A SIX YEAR OLD CAR.*DT CONSUMER STATED FAILURE OF SUSPENSION ON BOTH REAR PASSENGER SIDE. UPDATED 12/12/18*JB

TAKATA RECALL. BROUGHT MY CAR INTO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN BUENA PARK CALIFORNIA TO DEAL WITH THE AIRBAG RECALL. I BROUGHT MY CAR IN WITH THE AIR BAG LIGHT NOT ON AND AFTER THE DEALERSHIP WORKED ON THE CAR I RECEIVED MY CAR WITH THE LIGHT ON. I EXPLAINED THAT THE LIGHT WAS NEVER ON THAT THEY SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. STEVE LET ME KNOW THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO CLAIMING THERE WAS A PREVIOUS PROBLEM AND NOW THEY ARE TRYING TO CHARGE A FEE.

MY WIFE'S ALTIMA TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS WHEN DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE HAS WENT INTO LIMP MODE SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING IT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS DUE TO THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. SHE WAS ALMOST INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING DROP SPEED FROM ENGAGING LIMP MODE. VEHICLE HAS JUST OVER 70K MILES AND THE DEALER STATES THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THEY DID NOT EXTEND THE CVT WARRANTY LIKE THEY HAD ON PREVIOUS MODEL YEARS. NOW WE HAVE A VEHICLE THAT NEEDS A 4,000 TRANSMISSION AND HARDLY ANY MILEAGE THAT WOULD WARRANT A TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT.

WHILE TRAVELLING ON A LOCAL ARTERY ROAD (40 MPH SPEED LIMIT), THE CAR EXPERIENCED RAPID JERKING OR SHUDDERING (FORWARD AND BACKWARD MOTION) DURING GEAR CHANGES. AT THE NEXT STOP LIGHT, THE CAR STALLED SO I SHIFTED THE GEAR SHIFT FROM DRIVE INTO PARK AND RE-STARTED THE CAR. AS SOON AS I SHIFTED THE GEAR SHIFT FROM PARK INTO DRIVE, THE CAR IMMEDIATELY STALLED AGAIN. SO I SHIFTED BACK INTO PARK AND RE-STARTED THE CAR AGAIN. THEN THE CAR STALLED AGAIN AS SOON AS I SHIFTED INTO DRIVE. SO I SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL AND RE-STARTED THE CAR AGAIN. THEN I WAS ABLE TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO DRIVE FROM NEUTRAL. AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN, I IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT IT TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. THEY (THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP) SEEM UNABLE OR UNWILLING TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE SO NO REPAIRS ARE RECOMMENDED. UPON INVESTIGATING THIS FURTHER (INTERNET SEARCHES), THERE APPEARS TO BE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THESE SAME SYMPTOMS ON CARS WITH JATCO CVT TRANSMISSIONS. NISSAN REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ISSUES BECAUSE THEIR COMPUTERS AND OR DIAGNOSTIC TOOLS FAIL TO IDENTIFY ANY ERROR CODES, WHICH SUGGEST THAT NISSAN MAY HAVE TAMPERED WITH THEIR DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT TO AVOID RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE ISSUES. I SAY THIS BECAUSE NISSAN HAS YEARS OF DOCUMENTED CVT DEFECTS IN THEIR RECENT PAST. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS AS CONSUMERS ARE LEFT WITH UNSAFE VEHICLES THAT ARE SIMPLY BEING TRADED IN AND RESOLD TO OTHER UNSUSPECTING CONSUMERS, ALL BECAUSE NISSAN IS GETTING AWAY WITH NOT BE

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM I CANNOT SEE THE ROAD IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS AT ALL TIMES TO SEE THE ROAD. THIS IS SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE

MY LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS ARE A HAZARD TO MY NIGHT DRIVING, THEY ARE EXTREMELY DIM. AND THROUGH MONTHS HAVE WORSENED TO WHERE IT IS A HAZARD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO MY DEALERSHIP, AND THEY AGREE THAT THE ENTIRE HEAD LAMP SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, I CONTACTED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, WHO CONTACTED MY DEALERSHIP, THEY AGREED, AND STATED THEY WOULD PAY 70 %, SO MY ISSUE IS , IF THEY ARE WILLING AND AGREE TO PAY 70%, THIS IS A VEHICLE MALFUNCTION, AND THIS SHOULD NOT BE MY RESPONSIBILITY, THERE SHOULD BE A TOTAL RECALL ON THIS ISSUE, AND FULL PAYMENT FOR THIS ISSUE. THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON CARCOMPLAINTS.COM AS WELL. PLEASE LOOK IN TO THIS ISSUE, AND TAKE CARE OF THIS HAZARDOUS ISSUE. I AM WAITING FOR A REPLY, FROM YOU AND MY DEALERSHIP. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT THERE IS NEAR NO NIGHT TIME VISIBILITY, I AM HAVING TO DRIVE WITH HIGH BEAMS ON AND THAT IS CAUSING SAFETY CONCERNS FOR ONCOMING DRIVERS.

THE CAR SHUT COMPLETELY DOWN WHILE DRIVING (IN MOTION). THERE WHERE NO INDICATORS LIGHTS TO WARN US OF ANY PROBLEMS. WE STARTED IT UP AGAIN AND IT DIED AGAIN AFTER A FEW SECONDS. WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT CAUSES THE CAR TO COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. WE WERE PARKED AND STARTED THE CAR A PROCEEDED TO EXIT THE PARKING LOT WHEN IT JUST STOPPED WORKING. JUST COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. UNKNOWN REASON FOR THE CAR SHUTTING DOWN. ..*BF. *TR

I WAS TURNING RIGHT TO PARK MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA AND I PUSHED ON THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR TO STOP AND THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND JUMPED OVER THE CONCRETE CURB STOP. IT CONTINUED TO RUN UPSLOPE TO THE BUSHES AND OVER THREE BIG ROCKS WHILE I WAS TRYING TO AVOID HITTING THE FENCE IN THE FRONT AND BRAKING IT. I CONTINUED TO PRESS ON THE BRAKE AND THE CAR CONTINUED TO DRIVE FORWARD AND I KEPT TURNING THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT TO AVOID A FENCE. THE CAR RAN OVER THE CURB STOP OF ANOTHER PARKING SPACE ABOUT FIVE SPACES ON THE RIGHT. THE BOLT IN THE CONCRETE STOP PUNCTURED MY OIL PAN AND THE ROCKS RIBBED OFF THE PLASTIC SHIELDS UNDERNEATH. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO STOP THE CAR BY PUMPING THE BRAKE AND WIND UP IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. I CHECKED MY FOOT WAS STILL ON THE BRAKE. MY CAR HAD APPROXIMATELY 43000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THIS HAPPENED AT THE PARKING LOT OF BERTELSON MEMORIAL PARK IN EL DORADO HILLS IN CALIFORNIA. WE BELIEVED THAT THERE WAS A COMPUTER FAILURE THAT CAUSED THE ACCELERATION OF THE CAR WHILE I WAS TURNING RIGHT AND BRAKING AND TRIED TO PARK. ACCORDING TO ONE OF THE EXPERT, AN ELECTRICAL ENGINEER WHO HAS STUDIED SUDDEN ACCELERATION IN CARS FOR OVER 20 YEARS, STATED THAT "IF YOU'RE TURNING INTO A PARKING SPACE, YOU HAVE A LOT OF STRESS ON THE FRONT DRIVE SYSTEM, SINCE EVERYTHING IS BASED ON RUNNING THROUGH THE COMPUTER, INCLUDING SENSORS ON YOUR DRIVE SYSTEMS, ANY ONE OF THOSE COULD CARRY ONTO THE SYSTEM, CARRY ON TO THE ON-BOARD COMPUTER AND ATTACK IT." WE F

THE BATTERY SEEMS TO DRAIN QUICKLY FOR NO REASON EVEN I HAD A NEW BATTERY INSTALLED.I HAD TO JUMP START MY CAR VERY OFTEN.THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS.I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR 6 YEARS NOW.

MY LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM, AND A HAZARD TO NIGHT DRIVING. I HAVE CONTACTED MY DEALERSHIP. ALONG WITH NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS. THEY AGREED TO PAY 70% TO REPLACE THE HEAD LAMP SYSTEM, BUT I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, AND IF THEY AGREED TO PAY 70%, THEN THEY FEEL IT IS NOT A CONSUMER ISSUE, IT IS A VEHICLE/MANUFACTURE ISSUE, AND I FEEL THEY SHOULD REPLACE THIS FOR ME AT THEIR COST, ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE WILLING TOMPAYN70%, THEY KNOW IT IS A MANUFACTURER ISSUE , THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON CAR COMPLAINTS.COM. I FEEL THIS NEEDS TO BE A MANUFACTURER RECALL ISSUE. I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR UNDERSTANDING THIS ISSUE, AND COMPLIANCE WITH THIS HAZARDOUS SITUATION. IT HAS JUST BEEN GETTING WORSE AND WORSE, SO I FINALLY HAD TAKEN IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP DAYTONA NISSAN/ .DAYTONA AUTO MALL/ DAYTONA BEACH, FLORIDA. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH MR. GARY YEOMAN'S ( OWNER OF DEALERSHIP)SECRETARY/ (XXXXX) PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) *JS

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE REAR CONTROL ARM BROKE OFF. THE CAR ONLY HAS 46,000 MILES AND IS 5 YEAR OLD YET RUSTED SO BADLY FROM THE INSIDE OUT THAT THE ARM COMPLETELY BROKE OFF..

"TAKATA RECALL" MY GEAR SHIFTER REMAINS IN A STUCK POSITION. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY ON A CITY STREET. I WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT FROM PARK TO ANOTHER GEAR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS I HAVE GOTTEN STUCK WITH MY TODDLER IN THE CAR AND WAS UNABLE TO MOVE TO A SAFER LOCATION. IT TOOK ME AT LEAST 15 MINUTES TO GET THE CAR TO SHIFT FROM PARK INTO GEAR. I WAS TERRIFIED! I HAD TO LEAVE THE CAR IN ITS LOCATION AND TAKE A LYFT HOME WITH MY DAUGHTER. THE NEXT DAY MY LOCAL MECHANIC CAME TO CHECK THE CAR. HE SAID THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR 2013 NISSAN ALTIMAS. HE SAID HE WOULD HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR TO HIS SHOP TO INVESTIGATE WHAT MIGHT BE CAUSING THIS FAILURE OR I SHOULD CALL UP NISSAN BECAUSE THEY SHOULD BE AWARE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

I HAVE BEEN NOTICING THAT THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY CAR HAVE BEEN VERY DIM RECENTLY. I REALLY DIDN'T PAY MUCH ATTENTION UNTIL MY WIFE KEPT SAYING THAT SHE CAN'T DRIVE THE CAR AT NIGHT BECAUSE IT'S TOO DARK ON THE ROAD. I DID NOTICE THAT I WAS USING MY HIGHBEAMS MORE OFTEN. I CALLED DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE MY BULB AND THEY DO GO DIM. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY LOOKED AT IT AND TOLD THE ISSUE WAS NOT WITH THE BULB BUT IT LOOKED LIKE THE LENS WAS CLOUDY. THEY GAVE ME A PRICE OF $1100 TO REPLACE THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY. AFTER READING ALL THESE INTERNET COMPLAINTS I AM NOW BELIEVING THAT THE DEALERSHIP KNEW ABOUT IT BUT DIDN'T WANT TO ADMIT IT AND PRETENDED THAT IT WAS AN ABNORMAL EVENT. CAN'T TRUST THE DEALERS CONSUMER NEEDS TO STAND UP AND NOT GET SCREWED BY CAR MANUFACTURERS. $1100 IS A LOT OF MONEY TO SPEND JUST TO CHANGE THE BULBS BECAUSE THE PARTS ARE NOT MADE TO LAST OR MELT AWAY THE LENS. THIS IS NOT A MAINTENANCE ISSUE BUT A SAFETY ISSUE AND CONSUMER SHOULD BE ABLE TO CHANGE THE BULB WITHOUT CHANGING THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY FOR MAINTENANCE REPAIR. I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS THEY GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER, THEY CALLED ME BACK AND TOLD ME THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO SINCE MY CAR WAS OVER THE WARRANTY. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING AND I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN NOR DOES NISSAN CARE. I THINK THE BEST THING IS TO SUE THEM IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT. IN THE MEANTIME I'M DRIVING MY CAR WITH DIM LIGHTS.

TAKATA RECALL. HAD MY CAR IN THE DEALER FOR THE AIRBAG RECALL. EVER SINCE THE CAR PASSANGER LIGHT STAYS ON EVEN IF I SIT ON IT AND IM 180LBS AND THE DASH AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON SEVERAL WEEKS OF THE RECALL SERVICE. NOW I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY DON'T WANT TO HONOR THE PROBLEM. THEY SAY ITS RELATED TO A DIFFERENT ISSUE THAN WHAT THEY DID. THEY WANT TO RUN A DIAGNOSE CHARGE ME FOR IT AND FOR THE REPAIR COSTS. THE CAR IS UNSAFE AND I DON'T THINK I SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE SINCE THE CAR AIRBAG SYSTEM INDICATORS WERE WORKING CORRECTLY BEFORE I TOOK IT.

I AM REPORTING A DANGEROUS CONDITION WITH 2013 NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSION. WITH NO WARNING INDICATOR THE CAR'S TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 - 70 MPH.WHILE DRIVING IN MODERATE TRAFFIC, THE ENGINE REVVED TO 6000 RPM AND THE CAR WAS MOVING AT 20 MPH I WAS ABLE TO COAST THROUGH TRAFFIC TO THE SHOULDER AND TURN OFF THE CAR AND START AGAIN AND WAS ABLE TO AGAIN PROCEED. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. AFTER PARKING OVERNIGHT, IT WOULD NO LONGER MOVE IN FORWARD OR REVERSE. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A FAILED TRANSMISSION THAT WILL COST APPROX. $3700 TO REPLACE. I FILED A CASE WITH NISSAN CUSTOMER CARE TO APPEAL TO THEM DUE TO THE RELATIVELY LOW MILES FOR SUCH A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. WE LEARNED TODAY THAT THEY ARE PROVIDING NO COVERAGE FOR US DUE TO THE CAR BEING OUT OF WARRANTY.

2 WEEKS BACK I WAS DRIVING AND SUDDENLY CAR SLOWED DOWN. THE RPM WAS VERY HIGH BUT THE SPEED WAS AROUND 20MPH. LOOKED LIKE TRANSMISSION STUCK AT LOWER GEAR. LAST WEEK I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 100FT OF UPHILL AND IT COULD NOT TOW. ONLY ONE PERSON AND LOST POWER IN GAS. NO MATTER HOW MUCH I PRESSED THE GAS, THE RPM WAS LOW AND COULD NOT PULL CAR UPHILL. YESTERDAY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND TODAY MY DEALER SAYS THERE IS PROBLEM WITH TRANSMISSION. SOMETHING INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. RECENTLY LESS THAN YEAR AGO, THEY REPLACED FEW THINGS WHICH WAS UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. NOW I HAVE 63K AND OUT OF WARRANTY. THE TOTAL COST IS ABOUT $1300.00. HOW CAN SUCH A REPUTED BRAND CAR HAVE SO MANY TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS WITHIN A YEAR? THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST NISSAN.

BOTH MY DRIVER INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE AND PASSENGER INTERIOR DOOR HANDLE WITHIN WEEKS OF EACH OTHER FAIL TO OPEN DOORS. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE ALTIMA AND DUE TO A CHEAP PLASTIC PART THAT BREAKS WHICH HOLDS STEEL WIRE TO ENGAGE HANDLE MECHANISM. THIS IS A DANGER AND CAN CAUSE LIFE THREATENING PROBLEMS BECAUSE THE ONLY WAY TO GET OUT IS TO CRAWL TO BACK DOORS OR USE POWER WINDOWS TO LOWER WINDOWS AND REACH ARM OUTSIDE WINDOW AND OPEN VIA ECTERIOR HANDLE. IF THERE WAS A FIRE OR CRASH OR END UP IN WATER THERE WOULD BE LITTLE CHANCE TO EXCAPE IF POWER WENT OUT OF INJURY. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL, I WAS QUOTED $185 DOLLARS PER DOOR HANDLE FOR A THE FAULT OF NISSAN QUALITY PARTS.

CVT TRANSMISSION WENT ON MY ALTIMA. MY WARRANTY RAN OUT IN FEBRUARY OF 2018, THE TRANSMISSION WENT OUT IN MAY OF 2018. THE COMPANY PAID FOR HALF $2200 AND I HAD TO PAY THE OTHER HALF. I FEEL WITH ALL THE ISSUES NISSAN IS EXPERIENCING WITH THEIR CVT I SHOULD NOT HAVE HAD TO PAY ANYTHING.

I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 4 YRS AND ABOUT 3-4 MONTHS AGO THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS BEGAN TO APPEAR DIM. I CHANGED OUT THE BULBS THINKING THAT THE FACTORY BULBS WERE GOING BAD. AFTER REPLACING THE BULBS, THERE WAS NO CHANGE IN THE LIGHTING. IT IS NOW UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE MORE THAN 3-5 FEET IN FRONT OF YOU AND THAT IS ONLY BECAUSE THE FOG LIGHTS ARE ON. WE HAVE RESORTED TO RIDING AROUND WITH THE HIGH BEAMS ON BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. I'VE HAD AT LEAST TWO DIFFERENT NISSANS, THAT I HAVE HAD AT LEAST 8-10 YRS AND HAVE NEVER ENCOUNTER THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. NHTSA AND NISSAN NEED TO LOOK INTO THIS BECAUSE FROM OTHER COMPLAINTS I'VE READ THIS SOUNDS LIKE THE HEADLIGHT/LAMP ASSEMBLY IS DEFECTIVE.

AROUND 7 MONTHS AGO MY CAR WAS JERKING AND STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF A HIGHWAY, IT WAS TOW TO THE DEALER AND THEY JUST "RESET THE CAR". TODAY HAPPENED AGAIN, THE CAR START BUT STOPS WHEN CHANGING THE GEAR TO DRIVE OR REVERSE MODE SAME SITUATION AS THE LAST TIME.

MY CAR HAS 53,000 MILES ON IT AND BEING A SINGLE MOM OF 3 I CAN'T AFFORD TO PUT NEW TRANSMISSION IN IT. I STILL HAVE PAYMENTS ON THE CAR. DOES THIS CAR HAVE A CVT WARRANTY?

THE VEHICLE WAS ON A HIGHWAY AND SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. THE CAR DID NOW ALLOW ME TO PULL OVER, JUST STOPPED. I PUT IT INTO NEUTRAL AND ROLLED IT TO THE SIDE. I FINALLY GOT IT STARTED, AND IT STALLED OUT AND I COULD NOT MOVE THE CAR THREE MORE TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ON THE CITY STREETS BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID MY CVT TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

IN 2017 NISSAN HAS ME COME IN FOR A CVT TRANSMISSION UPGRADE. AFTER THE WORK WAS DONE AT THE NISSAN OF COOL SPRINGS AND I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP I NOTICED THAT THE CAR WAS RUNNING ROUGH, SHAKING, AND JOLTING WHEN I ACCELERATED. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED DEALERSHIP AND ASKED TO HAVE A TECH DRIVE THE CAR TO EXPLAIN THE PROBLEM. THE TECH GOT IN, RODE OFF, CAME BACK AND SAID IT WAS ALL RUNNING FINE. I ACCEPTED THAT AND ASSUMED IT WAS ONLY A MOMENTARY PROBLEM. I GOT BACK IN MY CAR AND IT WAS STILL DOING IT. I CAME BACK AND ASKED THE TECH TO RIDE WITH ME. IT DID IT WITH HIM IN THE CAR AND HE TOLD ME THAT THE CAR HAD TO "ADAPT TO MY DRIVING STYLE." 2018, AT 48,000 MILES THE CAR STARTED TO STALL ON ME WHEN IT WAS IDLE. IT WOULD START RIGHT BACK UP, BUT TURN OFF WHEN I PUT IT BACK IN DRIVE. TOOK IT BACK TO THE NISSAN OF COOL SPRINGS DEALERSHIP BUT THEY DID NOT FIND ANY ERROR CODE AND TOLD ME EVERYTHING IS WORKING FINE AND CHARGED ME AROUND $160. I ALSO TOLD THEM THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH IN THE PAST 2-3 TIME. BUT AT THAT TIME I WAS NOT AWARE OF THE CVT ISSUES. RECENTLY IT HAPPENED WHEN I STOPPED FOR REFUELLING MY CAR. I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH THAT IT DID NOT HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAYS.

HIGHLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. I LUCKILY HAVE FOG LIGHTS TO HELP BUT THE HEADLIGHTS HAD GOTTEN ME PULLED OVER FOR BEING SO DIM. LUCKILY THE OFFICER LET ME OFF WITH A WARNING TO JUST GET IT REPLACED. I HAD ALREADY REPLACED THE HEADLIGHTS ONCE BEFORE WHEN THEY HAD GOTTEN DIM AT ABOUT 40KMILES WITH HID AND NOW I REALIZED THEY ARE DIM AGAIN. I DRIVE A LOT SO I JUST REALIZED AT 113K MILES HOW DIM THEY WERE WHEN THE OFFICER HAD PULLED ME OVER.

BRAKES SQUEAL WHEN APPLYING BRAKES IN DRIVE AND REVERSE. MECHANIC CANNOT FIND CAUSE.

CONSISTENT WITH NHTSA 10109214,,WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ADD GASOLINE TO THE VEHICLE, THE GAS STATION'S GAS PUMP'S FILLING NOZZLE KICKS OFF IMMEDIATELY AND CONTINUOUSLY.. IN ORDER TO ADD FUEL, I MUST PLACE THE NOZZLE NO FURTHER INSIDE THAN THE EDGE OF THE FUEL TANK TUBE AND THEN ONLY SLIGHTLY SQUEEZE THE GAS PUMP'S NOZZLE.HANDLE SO THAT ONLY A LIGHT STREAM OF FUEL SLOWLY RUNS THROUGH THE GAS PUMP'S NOZZLE.. IT TAKES ME 12-15 MINUTES TO FILL MY TANK. THIS IS UNSAFE BECAUSE I CANNOT INSERT THE GAS PUMP'S NOZZLE ANY FURTHER THAN THE EDGE OF THE OPENING TO THE FUEL TANK TUBE AND SO IT IS COMMON FOR GASOLINE TO SPLASH OUT ON MY HAND, BODY, CLOTHING, CAR AND OTHER SURROUNDINGS. BECAUSE FUELING REQUIRES THAT I MAINTAIN MY HAND ON THE PUMP'S NOZZLE HANDLE AND THE PROCESS TAKES SO LONG, I AM SUBJECT TO GASOLINE SPLASHES AND INHALING GASOLINE FUMES FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD OF TIME. THE SPLASHING OF GASOLINE ON THE SURROUNDING SURFACES AT THE GAS STATION POSES A FIRE RISK AT THE GAS STATION, ITS CUSTOMERSI AND ME. IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE OR SPARK, I COULD CATCH ON FIRE.DUE TO THE SPLASHING ON MY SKIN, AND CLOTHING. BECAUSE THE NOZZLE CAN ONLY BE PLACED TO THE EDGE OF THE OPENING TO THE FUEL TANK TUBE, A SPARK COULD BE ATTRACTED TO THE EXCESSIVE ACCESS TO FUEL.. AS A RULE, PEOPLE WAITING IN LINE BEHIND ME TO FUEL UP BECOME INPATTIENT AND ENRAGED DUE TO THE DELAY. IN TODAY'S WORLD, IF THE WRONG PERSON IS WAITING BEHIND ME, I ALMOST JOKINGLY ADD THAT THIS VEHICLE'S DEFECT COULD LEAD TO A MASS SHOOT

CONSISTENT WITH NHTSA ITEM #10119276, THE MAGNET CLUTCH TO THE AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR DOES NOT ENGAGE CAUSING THE AIR CONDITIONER TO BLOW HOT AIR. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, THIS COULD POTENTIALLY OVEREXPOSE TTHE OPERATOR TO DANGEROUS LEVELS OF HEAT WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE OPERATOR'S ABILITY TO SAFELY CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND THEREFORE LEAD TO CRASHES AS WELL AS INJURY TO THE OPERATOR SUCH AS HEAT EXHAUSTION OR HEAT STROKE. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING, THE RISK OF THE OPERATOR'S OVEREXPOSURE TO THE HEAT CAN BE REDUCED BY ROLLING DOWN THE WINDOWS. HOWEVER DURING RAINFALL, AT SLOW SPEEDS OR WHILE AT A STANDSTILL, THAT OPTION IS NOT AVAILABLE. AS AN EXAMPLE, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, I REACHED A SECTION THAT WAS SHUT DOWN. THE TRAFFIC WAS BACKED UP AND I WAS TRAPPED ON THE INTERSTATE FORCING ME TO OPERATE MY VEHICLE AT A STANDSTILL FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. WHEN MY OVEREXPOSURE TO THE HEAT CAUSED ME TO BECOME FAINT AND DISORIENTED, I ABANDONED MY VEHICLE ON THE INTERSTATE AND MADE MY WAY TO THE SHOULDER OF THE INTERSTATE. A DOCTOR CAUGHTUP IN THE TRAFFIC BACKUP SAW ME AND WHILE ATTENDING ME STATED THAT I WAS SUFFERING FROM HEAT EXHAUSTION. OTHER MOTORISTS ASSISTED HIM AND WERE ABLE TO FIND SOMEONE WITH A COOLER OF ICE AND SO THE DOCTOR WAS ABLE TO TREAT ME BY ICING ME DOWN. THE DOCTOR TOLD ME THAT I WAS ON THE VERGE OF HEAT STROKE WHICH WAS AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. THIS INCIDENCE MADE ME REALIZE THAT A DEFECTIVE AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT SIMPLY UNCOMF

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND WITH THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 91,707.

MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS EVERYONE ELSE'S. THE EXTERIOR HEADLAMPS ARE DIM TO THE POINT OF FAILURE. LIGHT BULBS WERE CHANGED OUT TO NO AVAIL. DEALERSHIP WANTS ALMOST $1,200 TO REPAIR AND CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS INSULTING THROUGH 1 800 NISSAN 1. THEY INSIST I GO PAY TO HAVE A NISSAN DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE OUT OF MY OWN POCKET, COME BACK TO THEM AND REQUEST A CORRECTION OR ASSISTANCE WITH CORRECTING THE ISSUE. PRETTY MUCH TOLD ME IT WASN'T GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. CAR CURRENTLY HAS 77000 MILES ON IT . HUGE SAFETY ISSUE... A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IS BEING RESEARCHED AND I WILL DEFINITELY BE PART OF IT.

MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM ON MY 2013 ALTIMA. I CANNOT SEE DURING NIGHT HOURS. IT IS DANGEROUS TO MYSELF AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD. I HAVE TRIED TO SWITCH HEADLIGHT BULBS AND NOTHING WORKS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD! I AM IN DALLAS, TX.

HID HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM, IT'S UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. NO WAY THIS CAN PASS LIGHTING REQUIREMENTS.

MY 2013 ALTIMA STARTED TO HESITATE AND JERK WHEN I WAS DRIVING. THEN WHEN I WOULD BE STOPPED AND READY TO PULL OUT MY CAR WILL NOT GO AND THEN FINALLY CATCH AND GO. IT WONT GO OVER 30 MILES AN HR AT SOME POINTS. WHEN I BROUGHT IT TO NISSAN THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC ON IT AND ITS THE CVT TRANSMISSION THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD MY WARRANTY EXPIRED 2000 MILES AGO AND ITS GONNA COST ME $3500 FOR A NEW ONE. IVE ONLY OWNED MY CAR FOR 2 YRS. I AM SO DISSATISFIED WITH NISSAN AND THEY ARE SO UNPROFESSIONAL TO NOT FIX THIS KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THERE CVT ISSUES ON ALL THEIR VEHICLES.. I HAVE ALSO REPLACED THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLES ON BOTH DOORS..

TL* THE CONTACT LEASED A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT RUST AND CORROSION CAUSED THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE WHEEL TO FRACTURE FROM THE FRAME. THE DEALER (NISSAN OF STATEN ISLAND, 222 PARKINSON AVE, STATEN ISLAND, NY 10305, 1-(718) 447-3878) DIAGNOSED THAT THE METAL LINK TO THE REAR WHEELS AND CHASSIS FAILED. IN ADDITION, THE REAR CONTROL ARMS AND THE CONTROL LINK FRACTURED. THE DEALER FURTHER INSPECTED THE UNDERCARRIAGE, FRAME, AND FRONT AND REAR SUSPENSION. THE VEHICLE HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT THE CONTACT DID NOT KNOW IF IT WOULD COVER THE REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. *TT INCIDENT DATE IS BEFORE PURCHASE DATE. *JB

THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR AFTER IT IS PARKED OR WHEN YOU TRY TO PUT IN REVERSE. THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD GET STUCK. THIS WOULD HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK.

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOTICED THE REVS BOUNCE UP TO 5. IT THEN DROPPED DOWN AND MY CAR LOST POWER. I PULLED ON TO THE SHOULDER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. STARTED IT UP AGAIN AND IT STARTED OK. PULLED OFF ONTO THE NEXT EXIT AND STOPPED. WENT TO PROCEED THROUGH STOP SIGN. ACCELERATED AND IT WOULDN'T MOVE. IT'S AT THE SHOP NOW. POSSIBLE TRANSMISSION FAILURE. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING IN A 5 YEAR OLD CAR. A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM

I AM EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT CVT FAILURES AT MILEAGE: 45000. ONCE I WAS STATIONARY AND IN THE OTHER INSTANCE I WAS ON THE CITY STREET, WHEN I EXPERIENCED SUDDEN POWER LOSS, ALL WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. WHENEVER I STARTED MY CAR AND PUT IT IN REVERSE OR DRIVE IT JUST TURNED OFF. AFTER 4 TO 5 TRIES CAR STARTED. I LOOKED UP ONLINE AND IT HAD SYMPTOMS SIMILAR TO THE CVT FAILURE. I WENT TO NISSAN SERVICE CENTRE TWICE FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING AND SAID EVERYTHING IS IN PERFECT CONDITION.

HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM YOU CANNOT SEE MORE THAN 2-3 FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR. I HAVE REPLACED THE LIGHTS AND DOES NOT HELP. IT HAS BECOME SO BAD I ONLY DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT NIGHT WHEN ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. I HAVE ALSO NOTICE MANY REPORTS/COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME TOPIC.

07/09/2013 TOOK CAR IN FOR A CVT REPROGRAM, I NOTICED THE CHANGES IN SHIFTING BUT THOUGHT IT WAS DUE TO THE SOFTWARE REPROGRAM,ON 08/23/2018 WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ENGINE SHUTS OFF, MANAGE TO START IT UP AND DROVE HOME, LATER ON THAT EVENING I TRIED TO START THE CAR AND WHEN I SHIFT TO REVERSE OR DRIVE THE CAR WILL CUT OFF, 08/30/2018 TOWED MY CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC AND I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION, NISSAN NEEDS TO TAKE CARE OF THIS CVT I JUST DON'T HAVE THE MONEY FOR A TRANSMISSION.

2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO TRANSMISSION SAFETY RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING USING CRUISE CONTROL THE VEHICLE DROPPED FROM 75 MPH TO 40 MPH. THE RPMS JUMPED BETWEEN 4-5 AND LOSING POWER. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPROGRAMMED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE DUE TO THE MILEAGE. THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. *JS

THIS IS IN REGARDS TO THE CVT TRANSMISSION. IN FEBRUARY 2018, WHILE MY CAR WAS IN IDLE MODE, MY CAR SHUDDERED AND STALLED. WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK, SHUT THE CAR OFF, AND RESTARTED IT, THE CAR TURNED BACK ON. HOWEVER, WHEN I SHIFTED BACK IN "DRIVE" THE CAR WOULD SHUDDER AND STALL. AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS, THE CAR FINALLY WORKED. LATER THAT DAY, WHILE AT A STOP SIGN THE CAR SHUDDERED AND STALLED. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC. NOTHING SHOWED UP. MY LOCAL MECHANICS REPLACED A SENSOR BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE PROBLEM. FAST FORWARD TO AUGUST 2018. MY CAR WHILE DRIVING SLOW BEGAN TO SHUDDER AND THEN STALL OUT. I BROUGHT IT TO NISSAN. THIS TIME THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST SAID I NEED A VALVE BODY REPLACEMENT. THAT COSTED ME $1100. 2 WEEKS LATER. I WAS DRIVING AND WHEN I STARTED TO SLOW DOWN MY CAR SHUDDERED THEN STALLED. I RESTARTED IT FORTUNATELY AND BROUGHT IT BACK TO NISSAN. THEY DID ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC. THIS TIME THEY SAID THE CVT TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE DONE MUCH RESEARCH ON THIS. MANY PEOPLE HAD THIS PROBLEM. MY CAR IS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH 65K MILES ON IT. THERE IS NO REASON WHY THIS SHOULD BE HAPPENING. NISSAN KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM, YET THEY DO NOTHING ABOUT IT.

DRIVING AND A WEIRD HUMMING SOUND HAPPENED AND THE CAR LOST POWER WOULD NOT GO OVER 35 MPH THE RPM WENT TO 5000 I GOT PULLED OVER LOST ALL POWER SO I TURNED CAR OFF FOR APPX 15-20 MIN AND CAR DROVE FINE. AGAIN TODAY DRIVING TO WORK AND CAR LOST ALL POWER AND A HUMMING SOUND ACTED LIKE WOULDN'T GO INTO GEAR PULLED OVER THIS TIME TOOK SITTING APPX 1 HOUR THEN STARTED AND WAS OK TO GET BACK HOME AND I PARKED IT

LOW BEAM LIGHTS GIVE VERY POOR VISIBILITY

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TOO DIM TO DRIVE SAFELY ON THE ROAD. NISSAN REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM OR ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE AS THERE FAULT. MY ESTIMATE TO FIX THIS VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM IS $1000. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR AT NIGHT AND DO NOT FEEL IT SHOULD BE MY COST TO FIX IT.
