2014 Nissan Altima complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE CONTACT SWITCHED LANES AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SWERVE AND SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. THE TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT VEERED TO THE SHOULDER AND CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND INSPECTED ON THE FLAT BED TRUCK. THE MECHANIC NOTICED THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE LOWER CONTROL ARM WAS FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. RON BOUCHARD'S NISSAN (490 OLD UNION TPKE, LANCASTER, MA 01523) WAS CONTACTED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VIN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CONTACT NHTSA TO LOG A COMPLAINT. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: EA19002 (SUSPENSION) OPEN INVESTIGATION FOR THE SIMILARITY IN THE FAILURES STATED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 101,000.

THE CONSTANT VELOCITY TRANSMISSION (CVT) DIED WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THIS FAILURE OF THE CVT IS PREMATURE AT LESS THAN SERVICE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. CVT FAILURES FROM RESEARCH ARE QUITE TO COMMON TO BE AN ANOMOLY

I HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY HEADLIGHTS. THEY ARE EXTREMELY TOO DIM. I CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. MY BRIGHT LIGHTS WORK GREAT. SOMETIMES I FEEL AS IF THEY ARE NOT ON. I HAVE CHANGED THE BULBS SEVERAL TIMES. IT IS MUCH DIMMER ON THE DRIVER SIDE THAN THE PASSENGER, BUT THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT IS STILL DIM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NOW. I'M NOT SURE WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED BY NOW. SOMEONE WILL MOST DEFINITELY GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE ALMOST WRECKED SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS. THIS NEED TO BE A MAIN CONCERN FOR NISSAN. THEY ARE RISKING OUR LIVES. HOW MANY BULBS DO I HAVE TO CHANGE? ON DARK ROADS I HAVE TO PUT MY BRIGHT LIGHTS ON BUT WHEN ANOTHER VEHICLE IS COMING THEN I HAVE TO CUT MY BRIGHT LIGHTS OFF. WHEN I DO THIS THEN I FEEL AS IF I'M GOING TO GO OFF THE ROAD. I CANNOT SEE AT ALL. THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT PROBLEM AND NEED TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. I'M PRETTY SURE THAT THERE HAS BEEN ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS. I HAD TO PUT A DATE ON THIS BUT THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE LAST YEAR. I'M A NURSE AND I HAVE TO LEAVE EARLY IN THE AM FOR WORK ON A DARK ROAD. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

THE DRIVER'S SEAT IS LOOSE. 2 SCREWS CAME OUT AND YOU CAN ROCK THE SEAT BACK AND FORTH. BUT STILL ATTACHED.

ON 9/9/2020 MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA HOME FROM AN ERRAND WHEN SHE FELT THAT THE STEERING WAS COMPROMISED. AFTER ARRIVING HOME SHE ASKED ME TO DRIVE THE CAR. I PROCEEDED TO BACK OUT OF OUR DRIVEWAY AND AFTER TRAVELING ONLY ABOUT 6' THE DRIVER REAR WHEEL 'DROPPED'. BEFORE EXITING THE VEHICLE I TOLD HER THAT IT FELT LIKE THE WHEEL HAD FALLEN OFF. I CRAWLED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND FOUND THAT THE REAR DRIVER CONTROL ARM HAD COMPLETELY RUSTED THROUGH CAUSING THE PART TO FAIL. I SPOKE TO NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND LEARNED THAT THERE WAS NOT AN OPEN RECALL FOR THE 2014 ALTIMA BUT THERE WAS FOR THE 2013 ALTIMA. I THEN DECIDED TO INVESTIGATE ON THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION WEBSITE. I LEARNED THAT THE 2013-2018 CONTROL ARM SHARE A SIMILAR DESIGN WHEN FURTHER READING NHTSA ACTION NUMBER EA 19002. I ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS RECALL FOR THE 2014 ALTIMA IN CANADA AND WE LIVE 17 MILES FROM THE CANADIAN BORDER. I FEEL THAT THE RECALL FOR THIS PART SHOULD BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE MODEL YEAR 2014-2018 BECAUSE OF THE SHARED DESIGN.

CONTROL ARM/REAR SUSPENSION LOWER LINK RUSTED OUT AND LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR ON THE TACONIC STATE PARKWAY. NO INJURIES.NISSAN HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS ISSUE SINCE 2103. WONT REPLACE AS THEY STATE CAR HAS TOO MANY MILES WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RUSTING OUT. IT STATES ON THEIR WEBSITE A SERVICE CAMPAIGN AGREEING THAT SEVERE CORROSION OCCURS IN STATES WITH HIGH ROAD SALT USAGE AND NEW YORK IS ONE OF THESE STATES. WHY ISNT THIS A RECALL? SHAME ON NISSAN. HAD WE BEEN ALERTED TO THIS SERVICE CAMPAIGN WE WOULD HAVE HAD IT INSPECTED ON A REGULAR BASIS TO AVOID THIS MISHAP. NISSAN ALSO STATED SINCE THE CAR WAS NOT TOTALED, THEY WILL DO NOTHING. PLEASE ALERT ANYONE WHO OWNS A NISSAN ALTIMA TO BE AWARE! WE WILL BE FIXING THIS CONTROL ARM AT OUR EXPENSE AS WELL AS THE OTHER CONTROL ARM AT OUR EXPENSE SO THAT THIS WILL MAKE THE CAR SAFE AND TO AVOID A MAJOR ACCIDENT OR DEATH. IF THE AIRBAG WAS DEFECTIVE, WOULD THAT MATTER OF THE MILEAGE OF THE CAR? ITS A SAFETY ISSUE!

TRANSMISSION 1ST GEAR OR 2 GEAR DELAYS SHIFT AND SHUTS DOWN . SOON AS I PULL OFF MY ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION DOES THIS LOUD GRINDING NOISE AND STOPS MOVING

WHEN I AM IDLE AT A RED LIGHT AND GET READY TO TAKE OFF, I STEP ON THE GAS AND THE RPM HAND MOVES HOWEVER,T HE VEHICLE DOESN'T AND THEN IT SUDDENLY JUMPS TO TAKE OFF. MANY TIMES I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED BECAUSE OF THE DELAY OF THE VEHICLE NOT MOVING AND MY FOOT IS OFF THE BREAK. DRIVERS WOULD ASSUME I AM GOING.

MY HOOD LATCH DOES NOT CLOSE LIKE IT SHOULD. THE WHEELS ARE SHOWING TO HAVE A WHEEL BEARING PROBLEM. POPS WHEN PRESS ON BRAKES AND TURNING. ALSO MADE A BIG "BANG" NOISE.

THE RIGHT REAR CONTROL ARM BROKE ON MY VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING. I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ONLY ON A 30 MPH ROAD AT THE TIME. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR POSSIBLY KILLED. THERE WAS A RECALL/REPLACEMENT PROGRAM IN CANADA FOR THIS TYPE OF ISSUE ON THE 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA, BUT NOTHING IN THE U.S. THE REPAIR COST ME $730 DUE TO HAVING TO DROP THE REAR SUSPENSION IN ORDER TO REPLACE THIS PART WHICH MADE THE JOB LABOR INTENSIVE. I FEEL THAT THIS TYPE OF ISSUE SHOULD ALSO BE COVERED IN THE U.S.

FOR SEVERAL MONTHS THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT HAS BEEN WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. SOMETIMES THE LIGHT SHOWS UNOCCUPIED WHEN AN ADULT IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGERS SEAT. I DON'T KNOW IF THE AIRBAG IS WORKING PROPERLY OR NOT. I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE NISSAN DEALER IN LEESBURG, FL LAST WEEK FOR ROUTINE SERVICE AND TOLD THEM ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THEY PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND DID NOT FIND ANY FAULT CODES. THEY THEN GOT IN AND OUT OF THE SEAT SEVERAL TIMES AND SAID THE AIRBAG LIGHT DISPLAYED PROPERLY. THE NEXT DAY WITH AN ADULT PASSENGER IN THE SEAT THE LIGHT AGAIN SHOWED UNOCCUPIED. WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL REGARDING THIS PROBLEM.

HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA ARE EXTREMELY DIM. IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAS OFFERED TO REPLACE THEM FOR $700 PLUS THE LABOR!. ARE THEY REPLACING WITH THE SAME LIGHTS SINCE THEY INSIST THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE LIGHTS?

I BOUGHT A 2014 NISSAN IN 2017 ALTIMA MAKE: I HAD TAKEN THE CAR IN BECAUSE IT WOULD DELAY IN REVERSE. I HAVE THE RECEIPT ON THE DATE I WENT IN, 08/27/2018 ; THEY NOTE ON IT "COULD NOT DUPLICATE CUSTOMER CONCERN. THERE WAS A SECOND TIME I TOOK CAR IN FOR THE SAME REASONS, THEY COULD NOT FIND RECEIPT. NOW LOOKING BACK ON, 08/20/19 I HAD PROBLEMS WITH GETTING PARK IN GEAR, IT WOULD GET STUCK, THE INVOICE SAYS INTERNAL FAILURE TO INTERNSHIP SOLENOLD REPLACED INTERLOCK SHIFT. I FOUND ON THIS INVOICE IS WHEN I TOLD THEM THERE WAS A DELAY, NOTE: NO PROBLEM FOUND AT THIS TIME", I RECEIVED A LATE NOTE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE CVT TRANSMISSION, MY CAR BROKE DOWN ON 08/06/2020 ED HICK AGREES TO PAY 1/2 OF BILL $4,1000 IN ANY AVANT I WAS TOLD THE RECALL CAVED HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH FIXING TRAIN, I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASE THE CAR THAT THE RECALL REPROGRAMMING WOULD AFFECT THE TRAIN IF NOT CAUGHT IN TIME. I CAN NOT PAY AND SHOULD NOT PAY FOR A FACTORY RECALL ON THIS DAMAGE DONE. I JUST LOST MY JOB, AND ELDERLY, AM HANDICAP. CASE NUMBER [XXX], CAMPAIGN NUMBER PC490.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S AND FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR LATCHES BECAME DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO FRED ANDERSON NISSAN OF RALEIGH (9225 GLENWOOD AVE, RALEIGH, NC 27617) TWICE TO HAVE BOTH DOOR LATCHES REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE WAS A FAILURE WITH THE DOOR LATCHES HOWEVER, A RECALL WAS NOT PLACED ON THE VEHICLE FOR THE DOOR LATCHES. A MECHANIC EXPLAINED TO THE CONTACT THAT THE TWO CLIPS INSIDE THE DOOR LOOSENED OVER TIME WHICH CAUSED THE DOOR LATCHES TO BECOME DEFECTIVE. THE MANUFACTURER HAD YET TO BE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.*DT*JB

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS CAR BEING TOO DIM TO BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. NOW I CAN'T EVEN PASS STATE INSPECTION DUE TO THIS ONGOING ISSUE

HAVING PROBLEM WITH HEADLIGHTS. HAVE CHANGED BULBS OUT WITH SEVERAL DIFFERENT BRIGHTNESS. STILL NOT VERY BRIGHT. MAKES IT VERY HARD TO SEE.

THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THEY DID NOT REIMBURSE OR FIX AT NO CHARGE. NOW MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. THIS IS THE WORST CAR I EVER BOUGHT.

2014 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5SL AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON

THE DRIVER SIDE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT IS SIGNIFICANTLY DIMMER THAN THE PASSENGER SIDE ONE. I HAVE CHANGED MULTIPLE BULBS AND NONE CAN FIX THE DIMNESS BEING EXPERIENCED. I SUSPECT THIS ISSUE HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE HOUSING AND I KNOW OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME MODEL THAT HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. PS, I'M NOT THE FIRST OWNER OF THE CAR AND I'VE SEEN THIS ISSUE SINCE PURCHASE. SO I'LL SET THE DATE TO TODAY'S DATE.

THE SYSTEM THAT DETERMINES WHETHER THE PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY ON MY VEHICLE IS NOT FUNCTIONING AND IS DEFAULTING THE AIRBAG TO NOT DEPLOY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY DEALER FOR A QUOTE AND WAS TOLD IT WILL COST UP TO $1,800.00 TO FIX. I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN AT LEAST ONE RECALL PERTAINING TO THIS SYSTEM ALREADY (RECALL NUMBER 15V681000). I ALSO ASKED IF THERE WAS A WAY TO HAVE THE AIRBAG ALWAYS SET TO DEPLOY BUT WAS TOLD THAT WAS NOT POSSIBLE. AN $1,800.00 FIX FOR A CRITICAL SAFETY FEATURE IS A HAZARD THAT WILL DRIVE PEOPLE TO ACCEPT UNDUE RISK. A RECALL FOR AFFECTED NISSAN VEHICLES TO REPLACE THE SYSTEM OR WHICH WOULD DEFAULT THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY WOULD MITIGATE THE RISK TO THE POPULATION.

AIR BAG LIGHT FOR PASSENGER SEAT KEEPS COMING ON WHEN IN MOTION

LOWER CONTROL ARMS NEED TO BE REPLACED, FRONT STRUTS NEED TO BE REPLACED, AND POWER STEERING MOTOR. MY POWER STEERING WILL FAIL WHILE DRIVING, FOR 2-3 SECONDS AT A TIME, MAKING MY STEERING WHEEL UNABLE TO TURN. WHILE IN MOTION

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTED INTO REVERSE, THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL SQUEAKING NOISE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO LOKEY NISSAN (27758 US HWY 19 N, CLEARWATER, FL 33761) WHERE SHE WAS INFORMED THAT THE NOISE WAS NORMAL VEHICLE OPERATION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 38,000.

THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG IS LIT WHEN STARTING AND REMAINS LIT WHILE DRIVING. MY CONCERN IS THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY ON IT'S OWN WITHOUT IMPACT OR POSSIBLE WILL NOT DEPLOY UPON IMPACT.

WHERE THE MILEAGE SCREEN IS IT KEEPS BLINKING ON AND OFF AND STAYS BLACK OUT MAJORITY OF THE TIME I CAN'T SEE MILES AND I CAN'T SEE WHAT THE GEAR IT IS IN ON THE DASH BOARD . WHEN THE WEATHER OUTSIDE REACH OVER 95-100 THE DASH BOARD STARTS TOO LIGHT UP AND BLINK LIGHTLY TOO SEE THE MILES MY CAR HAS IT IS A WIRE ISSUE AND SHORTAGE SOMEWHERE ON ELECTRICAL PART . SECOND ISSUE IS THERE IS A RECALL ALREADY ON THE HOOD LATCH AND NISSAN DEALER TELLING ME THEY CAN NOT FIX IT UNTIL THEY HAVE A SOLUTION MY HOOD WILL NOT LATCH SO I AM DRIVING AROUND WITH A HOOD THAT CAN FLY OPEN AND CAUSE A ACCIDENT ANY MINUTE AND BEING THERE A RECALL NISSAN IS GONNA BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL DAMAGES

HOOD LACH BROKEN AND DISENGAGES AUTOMATICALLY WITHOUT BEING OPENED BY CAR OPERATOR. CAN OPEN WHILE THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR OPERATING. THE MANUFACTURER SENT ME A RECALL NOTICE TO SAY THE REMEDY WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL MID 2021. I THINK THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE GIVEN THE HOOD MAY FLY OPEN WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND THE DRIVER IS UNABLE TO SEE OUT OF THE FRONT WINDOW. I AM WRITING BECAUSE THIS SITUATION PRESENTS A PTENTIAL EMERGENCY.

BOTH THE LEFT AND RIGHT REAR CONTROL ARMS CRACKED DUE TO RUSTING. MY CAR OPERATES IN OHIO, A STATE THAT USES SALT TO CLEAR THE ROADS. ALL THE 2013 MODELS WERE RECALLED FOR THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT, HOWEVER MY CAR WAS BUILT 9/29/13 AT THE START OF THE 2014 PRODUCTION. THEY WERE STILL USING THE SAME PARTS, SINCE AT THIS POINT THEY DID NOT KNOW THEY WERE DEFECTIVE, BUT DID NOT RECALL THE CARS INVOLVED TO BE REPAIRED. THE RESULTING LOSS OF CONTROL COULD BE FATAL IF IT HAPPENS ON THE FREEWAY. FORTUNATELY, MY CAR DID NOT EXPERIENCE THAT CATASTROPHIC LEVEL OF IMPACT. HOWVER, IF MY CAR WAS SHIPPED TO CANADA IT WOULD BE PART OF THAT AS THEY RECALLED ALL 2014'S. WHY ISN'T THAT THE CASE HERE AS THEY ALL CAME OFF THE SAME ASSEMBLY LINE WITH THE SAME PARTS. THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED IN THE U.S. MY CAR STARTED MAKING VERY LOUD CLUNKING NOISES AS THE PARTS WERE CRACKING AND I STOPPED DRIVING IT AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE, AND NISSAN KNOWS IT EXISTS, LOOK AT ONLIMNE REVIEWS WITH THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE, INCLUDING YOUR OWN SITE, AND YOU CAN SEE JUST HOW BAD THIS ACTUALLY IS. PLEASE TAKE THE STEPS TO EXPAND THIS RECALL FOR THE SAKE OF ALL OF US WHO OWN THIS CAR.

WE PURCHASED A NISSAN ALTIMA SV, THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN SO DIM THAT AT NIGHT, IN RAIN, SNOW ETC. THEY PROVIDE NO ADEQUATE LIGHT TO LIGHT THE ROADWAY IN FRONT OF THE CAR. WE HAVE TO RESORT TO TURNING ON OUR HIGH BEAM ALMOST CONTINUOUSLY TO SEE THE ROAD AND OBSTACLES. WHAT WE HAVE FOUND OUT IS THAT IT IS A DEFECT IN MATERIALS AND IT WILL COST ME APPROXIMATELY $1000 TO FIX, WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD. AT THIS TIME NISSAN IS SILENT ON THE ISSUE. I FEEL LIKE THE LIVES OF MY FAMILY AND OTHERS ON THE ROADS ARE ENDANGERED BY THESE DEFECTIVE LIGHTS THAT NISSAN REFUSES TO ADDRESS. I HAVE HAD THE BULBS CHANGED AND IT DOES NOT IMPROVE THE HEAD LIGHT QUALITY.

LLEFT, REAR LOWER SUSPENSION CONTROL ARM BROKE. THIS WAS DISCOVERED BY THE INSPECTION STATION. WE HAD BEEN HEARING A GROANING/SQUEAK FOR 4 WEEKS BEFORE IT WAS DISCOVERED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, WHEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALER CENTRAL VALLEY NISSAN LOCATED AT 4530 MCHENRY AVE, MODESTO, CA 95356, (209) 526-3320,WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING JETTER TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED AS OF YET. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 128,000. *DT*JB

MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHTS ARE BECOMING DANGEROUSLY DIM TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. THEY HAVE BEEN WHAT I BELIEVE DIM FOR A FEW YEARS, BUT HAVE BEEN PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE. TO THE POINT I FEEL IT IS NOW A SAFETY HAZARD FOR ME TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, I AM REALIZING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2014-2106 NISSAN ALTIMA. I GUESS THE COATING INSIDE THE PROJECTOR BEAM LIGHT HOUSING WEARS OFF OR DETERIORATES PREVENTING A GOOD BEAM OF LIGHT. CHANGING TO A HIGHER QUALITY LIGHT BULB ALSO DOES NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM. ONLY WAY TO FIX IS APPARENTLY TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE LIGHT HOUSINGS WHICH FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND COST AROUND $1000 FROM NISSAN. I HAVE SEEN ENOUGH COMMENTS FROM OTHER NISSAN ALTIMAS WITH THIS SAME GENERATION, THAT I FEEL THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT NISSAN SHOULD BE ADDRESSING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO MOVE FORWARD INTERMITTENTLY UPON DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE FAILURE OCCURRED AFTER COMING TO A STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TWO INDEPENDENT MECHANICS HOWEVER, THE MECHANICS WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ALSO TOOK THE VEHICLE TO JEFF WYLER NISSAN OF CINCINNATI (8680 COLERAIN AVE, CINCINNATI, OH 45251) WHERE THE MECHANIC DUPLICATED THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 140,000.

LOW BEAM LIGHTING IS EXTREMELY DIM MAKING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO OPERATE AT NIGHT.

MY HEADLIGHTS ON DIM QUIT WORKING SO I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BULBS, WENT TO THE NISSAN DEALER AND HAD NEW BULBS PUT IN AND IT WAS JUST AS BAD IF NOT WORSE. CALL THE DEALER THEY SAID IT WAS THE PROJECTION SYSTEM THAT ALOT OF THESE MODELS HAD THAT PROBLEM BUT IT WASN'T A RECALL YET. I CHECKED ON GOOGLE AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND DON'T HAVE THE 1200.00 TO GET IT FIXED. WHEN I TURN MY LIGHTS ON DIM IT IS LIKE SOMEONE SHUT THEM OFF COMPLETELY. THIS CAR IS USELESS AT NIGHT AND I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN BECAUSE OF THIS DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT THEY SHOULD BE A RECALL ON AND ISN'T. SOMEONE WILL DIE IN THIS CAR ONE DAY I JUST HOPE I CAN GET RID OF IT BEFORE IT IS ME OR ONE OF MY GRANDKIDS. A CAR WITH NO LIGHTS ARE NIGHT IS A DEATH TRAP!!

THE SECONDARY HOOD LATCH MAY BECOME STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION DUE TO A POTENTIAL FOR CORROSION (IN REGIONS WITH EXCESSIVE ROAD SALT USE) IN THE HOOD LATCH COMBINED WITH IMPROPER INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE. REMEDY IS NOT AVAILABLE NOW!

I BROUGHT A 2014 ALTIMA FROM A DEALERSHIP IN 2018. I NOTICE WEEKS AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR THAT IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY AND EVEN STALL OUT WHILE IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY OR TRYING TO ACCELERATE AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. I HAD A NEW TRANSMISSION PUT IN. NOW A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATER THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING AGAIN. THE MECHANIC SAYS THAT ITS THE SAME PROBLEM DUE TO A FAULTY TRANSMISSION PART(CVT) TRANSMISSION. THIS SHOULD BE RECALL DUE TO NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS I HAVE SEEN AND MOSTLY THE DANGER IT IS CAUSING FOR NISSAN CUSTOMERS. THIS IS A HAZARDOUS AND COSTLY ISSUE. NISSAN SHOULD RECTIFY THIS IMMEDIATELY

THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM. EVEN WITH BRIGHTS, THE HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY ADEQUATE TO SEE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE AT AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE REAR CONTROL ARM ON THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE WERE FRACTURED. THE CONTACT CALLED TEAM NISSAN MANCHESTER LOCATED AT 70 KELLER ST, MANCHESTER, NH 03103, AND INFORMED THE DEALER OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS A REPLACEMENT PROGRAM HOWEVER, THE PROGRAM WAS NOT APPLICABLE TO THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 92,000.

WHEN GOING UP OR DOWN DRIVE WAY WHEEL MAKES POOPING SOUND CAR ALSO SWAY BACK IN FORTH ON FREEWAY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE ON A STATE HYW 165 TRAFFIC HAD STOPPED AND WE JUST WERE SLOWLY BEGINING TO ACCELERATE WHILE CHANGING LANES TO NAVIGATE AROUND THE EQUIPMENI IN THE ROAD. AS I CHAGED LANES IT FELT ASTHOUGH THE BACK END OF THE CAR SLID OUT. I NOTED THAT I HAD TO KEEP THE STEERING WHEEL TURNED 45 DEGREES TO THE LEFT TO DRIVE STRAIGHTAND THE SLICK ROUD WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH ACTIVATED. AFTER PULLING OVER IN A SAFE LOCATION I FOUND THAT THE PASSANGER SIDE REAR LOWER CONTROL ARM HAD BROKEN.
