2000 Nissan Maxima complaints

CONSUMER WAS INVOLVED IN A 35 MPH COLLISION IN WHICH THE DRIVER'S/PASSENGER'S AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, CAUSE UNKNOWN. PLEASE GIVE ANY FURTHER DETAILS. *AK

WHILE TRAVELING AT 45 MPH AND AS A RESULT OF A HEAD-ON COLLISION AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DEALER TOLD OWNER THAT IT WAS BECAUSE THE COLLISION WAS WITH AN SUV, AND THE BUMPER WAS TOO HIGH TO TRIGGER THE SENSOR. *AK *ML

THIS VEHICLE IS EXHIBITING A PROBLEM OF NOT BEING ABLE TO CONTROL THE ENGINE SPEED WITH THE THROTTLE PEDAL. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET, AND I FEEL IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS ATTENTION FROM NISSAN MOTORS. HERE ARE THREE LINKS REGARDING THIS OBLEM:HTTP://TOWNHALL.EDMUNDS.COM/CGI-BIN/TOWNHALL?C=SEDANS&T=3175 . *AHTTP://TOWNHALL-TALK.EDMUNDS.COM/ENGAGED/EDMUND.CGI?C=SEDANS&F=0&T=3109 HTTP://WWW.EDMUNDS.COM/EDWEB/EDITORIAL/FEATURES/MAXIMA/INDEX.HTML. *AK

THE REGULAR LIGHTS SHINE AT AN ANGLE. THE HIGH BEAMS SHINE WAY TOO HIGH. VISIBILITY IS DANGEROUS.*AK

WHEN HEADLIGHTS ARE IN USE ANGLE IS VERY POOR. CANNOT SEE ROAD VERY WELL. THE HIGH BEAMS ARE TOO HIGH WHEN IN USE. DRIVER CANNOT SEE BETWEEN HIGH & LOW BEAMS. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER & WAS INFORMED IT WAS DESIGNED LIKE THAT. *AK *ML

HEAD LIGHT DOES NOT GIVE PROPER ILLUMINATION DUE TO THE ANGLE OF THE HEADLIGHTS.

POSSIBLE SUSPENSION FAILURE IS CAUSING HTE VEHICLE TO HAVE A POOR RIDE. CONSUMER SAYS THE RIDE IS VERY BUMPY, CHOPPY AND JARRING AND MAKES DRIVING UNCOMFORTABLE AND TIRING. NLM

IN COLD WEATHER CONDITIONS VEHICLE STALLS WITHOUT WARNING. DEALER HAS INSPECTED VEHICLE AND DETERMINED THAT THE PROBLEM IS WITHIN THE COMPUTER. *AK

SINCE CAR FIRST PICKED UP FROM DEALER, FRONT END VIBRATES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (65-70MPH). RETURNED TO DEALER 3 TIMES TO CORRECT PROBLEM. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. DEALER CUT ROTORS, ROTATED AND BALANCED TIRES SEVERAL TIMES, REPLACED ALL TIRES AND PROBLEM REMAINS. REPORT FILED WITH NISSAN (FILE # 3027068). TEST DROVE ANOTHER 2000 MAXIMA AND PROBLEM WAS NOT THERE. WAITING FOR NISSAN TO CONTACT DEALER TO CONTINUE THE TROUBLE SHOOTING OF THE PROBLEM.

DESIGN OF HEADLIGHTS CAUSE POOR VISIBILITY WHICH MAY RESULT IN A CRASH. DEALER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT HAS NO SOLUTION. PLEASE PROVIDE FURTHER INFORMATION. *AK *YC
