2015 Nissan Altima complaints

I BOUGHT MY 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA NEW ON OCTOBER 1, 2014. BECAUSE I USUALLY DRIVE IN URBAN AREAS WITH GOOD STREET LIGHTING, I DID NOT NOTICE MY WEAK LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS UNTIL JULY 2, 2017. I WENT TO ONE DEALERSHIP WHICH TOLD ME MY LIGHTS WERE OK. I SUBSEQUENTLY GOT 'WARNINGS' FROM 2 POLICE OFFICERS WHO TOLD ME MY LIGHTS WERE TOO DIM. I THEN TOOK THE CAR TO ANOTHER NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE NO PROBLEM WAS FOUND. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE FIRST DEALERSHIP WHICH AGAIN FOUND NO PROBLEM. I THEN GOT PULLED OVER A THIRD TIME. TOOK MY CAR TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO CHANGED THE HEADLIGHTS (CHARGED ME ABOUT $150) WHICH DID NOT HELP. I THEN CALLED AND WROTE TO NISSAN: PHONE CUSTOMER SERVICE REFUSED TO TALK TO ME AND MY LETTER TO A COMPANY OFFICER WENT UNANSWERED. I THEN WENT TO ANOTHER MECHANIC SPECIALIZING IN HEADLIGHTS, SHOWED THEM MY ORIGINAL AND THE REPLACEMENT HEADLIGHTS (BOTH SETS WERE GOOD), SO HE SUGGESTED THAT I GET HID HEADLIGHTS. THOSE COST ABOUT $250, AND DID NOT HELP. WHEN I TOOK MY CAR TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN ALEXANDRIA, VA, THAT DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED MOISTURE IN MY HEADLIGHTS AND SAID THAT SINCE I'D ALWAYS GOTTEN MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS AT A DEALERSHIP, THEY WOULD HAVE GOTTEN NISSAN TO SPLIT THE COST OF REPAIRS. BUT SINCE I'D HADHID HEADLIGHTS INSTALLED, I'D HAVE TO PAY THE ENTIRE $1,600 COST OF REPAIRS MYSELF. I'VE HAD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON. MY HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO REACH THE BUMPER OF THE CAR IN FRONT OF MINE WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT.

NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, INC. (NISSAN) IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2015 ALTIMA AND 2016 MAXIMA VEHICLES MANUFACTURED OCTOBER 6, 2015, TO OCTOBER 7, 2015. THE AFFECTED VEHICLES HAVE FRONT BRAKE CALIPERS WHOSE MOUNTING BOLTS MAY NOT BE PROPERLY TIGHTENED. I CRASH MY CAR ON AUG/16 AND DEC/17. BOTH FOR THE SAME REASON. I LEASE THIS CAR ON MARCH/2016. I'M NOT SURE THAT THE DEALER FIX THE PROBLEM BEFORE LEASED.

DRIVING AT NIGHT IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ON YET YOU CAN BARELY SEE AHEAD OF YOU. AT TIMES YOU ARE FORCED TO TURN ON THE HIGH BEAMS WHICH ENDANGERS OTHER DRIVERS. I HAD EVEN RECEIVED A CITATION FOR FLASHING MY LIGHTS BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO CLEARLY SEE THE STREET SIGNS. THIS SITUATION IS PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS WHEN TURNING. THE PROBLEM IS YOU CANNOT SEE THE ROAD CLEARLY AND ENDS UP SOMETIMES IN THE WRONG LANE. I WAS MAKING A LEFT ONE NIGHT AND ENDED UP TOO FAR DOWN THE ROAD THAT I WAS ON. AS I WAS TRYING TO TURN, OTHER CARS WERE TURNING ON MY RIGHT ON A ONE LANE ROAD. I JUST COULD NOT SEE WELL ENOUGH TO FOLLOW THE CURVE. WHEN RIDING WITH OTHER PASSENGERS AT NIGHT, THEY NEVER FAIL TO ALERT ME TO THE FACT THAT MY HEADLIGHTS ARE OFF. I USUALLY HAVE A HARD TIME CONVINCING THEM THAT THEY ARE WRONG.

2015 ALTIMA HAS INCURRED TWO SEPARATE WATER LEAK ISSUES WITHIN TWO MONTHS. FIRST, DIAGNOSED AS CLOGGED AC DRAIN. THIS REQUIRED COMPLETE REPLACEMENT OF CARPET. THIS WAS REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY. SECOND, DIAGNOSED AS FAULTY FIREWALL GROMMET ON STEERING ASSEMBLY. THIS ALLOWED EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF RAINWATER TO FLOOD DRIVER SIDE CARPET AND UNDER DASH ELECTRICAL WHILE DRIVING. NISSAN CLAIMS IS NOT A WARRANTY-ABLE FAILURE DUE TO "NATURE" BEING SOURCE OF WATER WHICH FLOODED THROUGH FIREWALL. DEALER STATES THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON OCCURRENCE ON 2013-2017 ALTIMAS NISSAN ALSO DOES NOT SEE HOW FAILURE OF FIREWALL GROMMET (S) COULD LEAD TO VEHICLES SINKING FASTER IN THE EVENT OF A WATER CRASH.

I WAS TOLD THAT MY LIGHTS SEEMED VERY DIMMED. BEING THAT I LIVE IN THE CITY FULL LIGHTS SO IT'S HARD TO TELL BUT I'VE NOTICED THE LAST COUPLE OF TIMES I'VE GONE OUT OF TOWN AND HAD TO TAKE DARKER ROADS, THE LIGHTING ON THE VEHICLE IS TERRIBLE. YOU CAN BARELY SEE 5FT IN FRONT OF YOU AND THAT'S VERY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING....SOMEONE NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS AND CORRECT THE PROBLEM.

MY LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM MAKING IT VERY HARD TO DRIVE AT NIGHT AND IN DARK SITUATIONS. IT IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I HAVE AND I AM A NURSE THAT HAS TO TAKE CALL AND DRIVE AT NIGHT. MY SON AND I DROVE AT NIGHT FOR A BALLGAME AND I COULD BARELY SEE. I WENT TO AUTO ZONE AND O'REILLY'S AND BOTH PLACES TOLD ME REPLACING BULBS WOULDN'T HELP. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.

OCS SEAT SYSTEM SAME PROBLEM OVER AND OVER PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPIED INDICATOR LIGHT STILL ON

I OWN 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA, I WANT NHTSA TO BE AWARE OF SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH CVT TRANSMISSION ISSUE. I WAS ON 95 SOUTH IN WASHINGTON DC WHEN MY VEHICLE HESITATED FOR SEVERAL SECONDS AS I PUSHED MY GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR MY CAR WOULD SLIGHTLY MOVE FORWARD. WHEN I WAS TRYING TO MOVE TO THE FAR RIGHT SHOULDER, I WAS ALMOST HIT BY MACK TRUCK. MY CAR WAS BARELY MOVES. THE ALMOST CAUSED SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND POSSIBLE MY LIFE. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY 8/23/2018 ON MY WAY TO WORK. I WAS AT STOP LIGHT I PUSH THE ACCELERATOR AND MY VEHICLE BARELY MOVED. I WAS TOLD BY THE NISSAN DEALER THAT IT CVT TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER SAID THEY ARE GETTING A DOZEN 2015 NISSAN A WEEK WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS MY CAR IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD. THIS IS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR ME TO FIX.

THE CAR STARTED VIBRATING AS IF IT'S GOING TO SHIFT DOWN, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAM ON. TOOK THE CAR TO ADVANCE AUTO , WAS TOLD THAT THE SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED LACED. TOOK THE CAR TO A NISSAN DEALER HAD THE SENSOR REPLACED, DROVE THE CAR FOR TWO DAYS. DRIVING TO WORK THE NEXT DAY HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE THIS TIME THE CAR JUST STOPPED. TOOK IT BACK TO THE NISSAN DEALER WAS TOLD THAT THE OTHER SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I'M AFRAID THAT I MIGHT BE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND MAY ENCOUNTER THE SAME PROBLEM I HOPE TO GOD NOT, BUT AT THIS POINT I'M A BIT WORRIED. HAD THE CAR FOR 4 MONTHS NOW. *TR

THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON INDICATING THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG WAS OFF. MY WIFE WAS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SEAT AT THE TIME. SHE HAD HER SEAT BELT ON. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 70 MPH ON A HIGHWAY AT THE TIME. I HAVE THIS ON VIDEO THAT SHOWS THAT THIS LASTED FOR APPROXIMATELY 12 MINUTES BEFORE THE LIGHT WENT OFF AND THE AIRBAG SYSTEM INDICATED THAT THE AIRBAG WOULD DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY. THIS IS 12 MINUTES WHERE MY WIFE WAS NOT PROTECTED BY AN AIRBAG SYSTEM. THE VIDEO THAT I HAVE IS FROM AND IPHONE AND IS NOT IN A SUPPORTED FILE FORMAT FOR UPLOADING. I WOULD BE HAPPY TO SEND IT TO YOU ANOTHER WAY. I CONTACTED THE NHTSA ABOUT 8 MONTHS AGO ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING. I CONTACTED NISAN AT THE SAME TIME AND THEY INDICATED THAT WITHOUT ANY ERROR CODES, THERE IS NO PROOF THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE OR IS REALLY HAPPENING. I HAVE DOCUMENTED VIDEO EVIDENCE THAT THIS IN FACT DID OCCUR. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN WHICH NO ONE SEAMS TO CARE ABOUT. YOU WOULD THINK THAT WITH ALL OF THE RECENT TROUBLES WITH AIRBAGS, SOMEONE WOULD TAKE SOME INTEREST IN LOOKING INTO THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE ISSUE. I AM ASKING THE NHTSA TO PLEASE ASSIST ME IN GETTING THIS SAFETY ISSUE RESOLVED. I CONTACTED NISAN AGAIN AND THEY HAVE NOT RETURNED MY CALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE HOOD FLEW UP AND STRUCK THE WINDSHIELD WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CAUSEWAY NISSAN (435 NJ-72, MANAHAWKIN, NJ 08050, (609) 597-5052), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

CAR SHUDDERS AT LOW RPM ACCELERATION AND SOMETIMES STALLS WHEN TURNING ON TO A BUSY STREET. TOLD BY DEALER TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. CAR HAS 46000 MILES AND A BRANDED TITLE. CAR RESTORED TO PERFECT CONDITION AFTER MINOR ACCIDENT. NISSAN REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE ANY FURTHER WARRANTY DUE TO THE BRANDED TITLE. THE REASON FOR COMPLAINT IS THAT THERE IS A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF THESE VEHICLES WITH THIS SAME TRANSMISSION ISSUE. UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES THE WARRANTY WOULD COVER THE POWERTRAIN FOR UP TO 60,000 MILES REGARDLESS OF THE EXTENDED POWERTRAIN WARRANTY THAT NISSAN HAS GRANTED TO OTHER ALTIMA OWNERS WITH THIS PROBLEM.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON THE CAR AND WONT COME OFF

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE CHILD SAFETY LOCK FAILED TO RELEASE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW FAILED TO GO COMPLETELY DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER (AVONDALE NISSAN, 10305 W PAPAGO FWY, AVONDALE, AZ 85323, 877-921-9601), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 32216717. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 109,000.

MY NISSAN ALTIMA CVT TRANSMISSION IS GOING UP AGAIN. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME AND NISSAN HAD MY CAR FOR ALMOST THREE WEEKS AND I HAD TO CALL AND SEE A STATUS AND IF I DIDN'T I STILL WOULDN'T OF GOT A CALL ABOUT IT. THEY TOLD ME THEY DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE ON THE CONTROL MODULE OF THE TRANSMISSION AND THERE IS A NOTE IN MY ACCOUNT THAT I CAN BRING IT UP AS MANY TIMES AS I NEED TO WITH NO CHARGE TO ME. ARE YOU KIDDING ME RED FLAG, AND LETS NOT FORGET THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THEY HAD MY VEHICLE ON THE SAME PROBLEM AND THIS IS A RED FLAG FOR NOT KNOWING HOW MANY MORE TIMES THIS WILL HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE BUT IT WILL HAPPEN. THE CVT TRANSMISSION IS A VEHICLE WITH NO RELIABILITY WITH IT, COSTS YOU AN ARM AND LEG, AND THE CAR IS CRAP. THEY ALL NEED TO BE RECALLED. THE VEHICLE MAKES A WHINEY NOSE GOING DOWN OR UP HILLS, THE RPM'S GET STUCK IN 2ND GEAR AND DON'T LET YOU GO ABOVE 20MPH UNLESS YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF AND THEN STOMP IT TO THE FLOOR TO KICK IT OUT OF GEAR, AND THE CAR TRIES TO OVERDUE YOUR DRIVING TO DO ITS OWN. THE TRANSMISSION IS CRAP AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AFTER ALL THE REVIEWS OUT THERE SAYING THE SAME THING FROM 2008 TO AT LEAST 2015 OR 2016.

WE PURCHASED THE CAR NEW IN 2014 AND ALWAYS TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE OIL CHANGES AND TIRE ROTATION. WE NOTICED THE LOW TIRE SIGNAL COMING ON FROM TIME TO TIME. I GOT A SMALL NAIL IN THE FRONT TIRE AND TOOK IT TO A GARAGE TO GET IT REMOVED. THE CAR JUST TURNED OVER 40,000 MILES. WE TOLD THE ATTENDANT WE WERE GOING ON VACATION THE NEXT WEEK AND HE CHECKED ALL 4 TIRES. THAT IS WHEN WE FOUND OUT THAT THE 2 REAR TIRES BELTS WERE BREAKING ON THE INSIDE AND THE INSIDE TIRE TREADS HAD UNUSUAL WEAR.NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO BUY NEW TIRES WITH ONLY 40,000 MILES.

TRANSMISSION FAILED TO GO IN GEAR BRIEFLY WHEN STARTING IN TRAFFIC....FELT LIKE THE VEHICLE REVVED UP, BUT NO POWER. AFTER A FEW SECONDS, IT WENT IN GEAR.

WHILE DRIVING ON A FOUR LANE MAIN STREE I LET THE REAR WINDOW DOWN BEHIND DRIVER AND DOOR UNLOCKED AND FLEW OPEN COULDN'T CLOSE UNLESS THE WINDOW WAS PUT UP CONFUSED PULLED OVER AND TRIED TO ROLL WINDOW DOWN AGAIN WITH SAME RESULT NEXT DAY DOOR WILL NOT OPEN OR CLOSE FROM INSIDE OR OUT

HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY DIM. I GOT PULLED OVER TWICE BECAUSE MY HEADLIGHTS WERE TO DIN OR APPEAR TO BE OFF. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS BUT IT REMAINED THE SAME. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE IT A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING IN THE RAIN AND AT NIGHT. I DRIVE A LOT AT NIGHT AND I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAM AND THAT MAKES IT DANGEROUS FOR OTHER DRIVERS BECAUSE IT DISTRACTS THEM. WHY WON'T NISSAN RECALL THIS ISSUE?

NISSAN SEEMS TO HAVE DEFECTIVE AC COMPONENTS IN THEIR 2015 ALTIMA VEHICLES. THE BELOW LINK SHOWS ADDITIONAL INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR 2015 ALTIMA. THE COMPRESSOR DOES NOT ALWAYS ENGAGE, WHICH CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO BLOW OUT HOT AIR. HOWEVER, IN SOME CASES THE COMPRESSOR CLUTCH WILL ENGAGE AND BLOW OUT COOL AIR, BUT IT IS VERY INCONSISTENT.

TAKARA RECALL

LAST MONTH I TOOK MY ALTIMA TO MY DEALER FOR SERVICE. MY CAR SHUT DOWN ON ME TWICE EARLIER IN THE WEEK & I WAS UNABLE TO GET IT STARTED AGAIN. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROADWAY IT WOULD COMPLETELY LOSE POWER.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, ALL POWER SHUT DOWN TO VEHICLE. BARELY GOT IT OFF ROADWAY. WOULD NOT RESTART. MECHANIC SAID IT NEEDS A NEW FUEL PUMP.

WE ALL KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON. NISSAN REFUSES TO FIX OUR HEADLIGHTS. MEANWHILE WE CAN'T SEE AT NIGHT. THANKFULLY, I FOUND AND WANT TO SHARE WITH ALL OF YOU, A LINK FOR THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT THAT WILL HELP US TO TAKE CARE OF OUR ISSUE.

I WAS DRIVING AROUND A LITTLE WHILE AND WHEN I CAME TO A STOP AT A STOP LIGHT I PUSHED MY GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE FORWARD AND MY CAR DID NOT MOVE, AS I PUSHED MY GAS PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR MY CAR WOULD VERY LIGHTLY MOVE. FINALLY AFTER MOVING BARELY FORWARD MY CAR WOULD GO , I HAD CARS ALMOST HIT ME AND PEOPLE GETTING ENRAGED I AM NOT MOVING, THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM NOW, IT HAPPENS OFTEN AND SOMETIMES CAUSING A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS SITUATION. AFTER DOING MY RESEARCH MANY OF OWNERS OF THIS YEAR MAKE AND MODEL ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE BUT YET NOTHING TO COME OUT FROM NISSAN FOR RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON AN INCLINE, THE VEHICLE INADVERTENTLY STARTED TO DECELERATE. THE CONTACT HAD TO PULL OVER ONTO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BECAUSE THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED.

I BARELY MADE IT TO THE NEXT EXIT AND HAD TO DRIVE WITH MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON SO OTHER DRIVERS KNEW THAT I COULDN'T DRIVE ANY FASTER. I PULLED INTO A GAS STATION AND LET THE CAR SIT FOR APPROXIMATELY 30-45 MINS. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE THE REST OF THE WAY HOME. DURING THE REMAINDER OF MY DRIVE, THE RPM WOULD ALL OF A SUDDEN JUMP WHICH CAUSED MY CAR TO JERK AND ACCELERATE FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING. HAD SOMEONE BEEN IN FRONT OF ME, I WOULD'VE HIT THEM. AS I WAS TAKING MY CAR TO NISSAN THE NEXT DAY, MY CAR WOULD STALL AT RED LIGHTS AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH I PRESSED THE GAS IT WOULD TAKE FOREVER TO BEGIN MOVING. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND VERY SCARY AND I DONT FEEL SAFE.

2015 NISSAN ALTIMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PROBLEMS WITH BRAKES. *LD *TR

TRANSMISSION REVVING OUT, SLIPPING AND SHUDDERING. VEHICLE IS ONLY 67000 MILES.

REAR BRAKES WORN DOWN TO METAL WITH ONLY 35,000 MILES ON ODOMETER WHILE FRONT BRAKES INDICATE FAR LESS WEAR AND DID NOT REQUIRE REPLACEMENT. THIS CONDITION IS INDICATIVE OF MALFUNCTIONING OR MIS-ADJUSTED PROPORTIONING VALVE. IT ALSO INDICATES POTENTIAL STABILITY AND HANDLING ISSUES DUE TO HIGHER BRAKING FORCE BEING APPLIED TO REAR BRAKES WHILE STOPPING. DEALER (SURF CITY NISSAN, HUNTING BEACH CA), WHEN QUESTIONED, GAVE VARIOUS REASONS AS TO WHY THIS WAS HAPPENING: 1. "YOUR CAR HAS REAR DISC BRAKES AND THAT'S WHY THEY WEAR OUT FASTER" 2. "IT DEPENDS ON WHO'S DRIVING THE CAR" 3. "OLDER CARS APPLY MORE FORCE TO THE FONT THAN THE BACK BRAKES, NOT THE NEW ONES" ALL OF THESE STATEMENTS ARE CONTRADICTED BY SAE PUBLICATION, "VEHICLE DYNAMICS, STABILITY AND CONTROL", 2017. DEALERS WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS CONDITION IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE AND THEREFORE WOULD NOT INVESTIGATE IT FURTHER. DEALER, SERVICE REP AND SERVICE TECHS ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH BASIC PRINCIPLES OF VEHICLE OPERATION, SAFE OPERATION AND FUNCTION. CONTACTED NISSAN NORTH AMERICA, TN (IAN) AND THEY WOULD GIVE NO TECHNICAL INFORMATION OR OPINION ON THE APPARENT UNSAFE CONDITION OF THE CAR AND DEFERRED TO THE "EXPERTISE" OF THE DEALER. AS INDICATED ABOVE, THE DEALER DISPLAYS LITTLE OR NO EXPERTISE WITH REGARD TO THIS CONDITION.
