I OWN A 1994 NISSAN ALTIMA. IN DECEMBER 2006, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUNVISOR MALFUNCTIONED AND DROPPED DOWN BLOCKING THE DRIVER'S VIEW OF THE ROAD. FORTUNATELY, THIS DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. ON DEC 21, 2006, THE MALFUNCTIONING SUNVISOR WAS REPLACED AT THE OWNERS EXPENSE ($113.65). AROUND AUGUST 2008, THE REPLACEMENT SUNVISOR FELL OUT OF IT'S HOLDER AND BRACKET INTO THE DRIVER'S LAP WHILE DRIVING. THE OWNER FIXED IT SO IT WOULD NOT FALL OUT AGAIN. HOWEVER, IN OCT 2008, THE REPLACEMENT SUNVISOR WOULD NO LONGER STAY UP. AGAIN IT SWUNG DOWN INTO THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER WHILE DRIVING. AGAIN, IT WAS FORTUNATE THAT THIS DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AND BASED ON ON-LINE POSTS IT IS A COMMON THEME AMONG NISSAN VEHICLES. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR A REPLACEMENT AND THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT OR GIVE ME A DISCOUNT SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED OVER 12 MONTHS AGO. NEXT WEEK, I WILL FILE A COMPLAINT WITH NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICES. HOWEVER, BASED ON THEIR LACK OF RESPONSE TO OTHER ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE, I DO NOT EXPECT THEM TO RESOLVE IT TO MY SATISFACTION. *TR

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND UPON DIAGNOSTICS IT SAYS CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS DEFECTIVE HOWEVER AFTER REPLACING CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND SENSOR PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. *TR

MY 2004 NISSAN TITAN LEAKS PROFUSELY ONTO BY EMERGENCY BRAKES. MY EMERGENCY BRAKES DO NOT WORK AT ALL ON A HILL. THE NISSAN MECHANIC HAS POINTED THIS OUT TO ME WHILE THE TRUCK WAS UP ON THE RACK. HE STATED THAT THE LEFT REAR AXLE SEAL WAS AND STILL LEAKING. I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE SEAL SPACER AND BEARING, FOR A GRAND TOTAL OF $171.00 FOR PARTS, AND ALMOST $200.00 FOR LABOR. THIS HAS HAPPEN REPEATEDLY ON ALL NISSAN TITAN TRUCKS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS ITEM. OWNERS SHOULD BE COMPENSATED FOR THEIR EXPENSES ON SUCH A DEFECTIVE PART. *TR

DOOR LOCK FAILED TO PERFORM ON NISSAN MURANO 05 1. HAVING A SECURE ENVIRONMENT IS PARAMOUNT IN CERTAIN NEIGHBORHOODS. WHEN LOCKING THE DOORS IT'S IMPERATIVE NOBODY CAN GAIN ACCESS AT WILL BY WALKING UP TO THE CAR. IF ANYONE CAN SIMPLY OPEN THE DOOR TO GAIN ACCESS, CARJACKING, INJURY, OR EVEN MURDER IS EASIER. IF THE DOORS LOCKED PROPERLY THIS PROVIDES A MORE SECURE ENVIRONMENT FOR THIS TYPE OF SCENARIO. 2. NISSAN KNOWING THERE IS A SECURITY PROBLEM WITH THEIR LOCKING MECHANISM AND NOT RECALLING THEM FOR SAFETY CONCERN IS NEGLIGENT. IT'S AN OPEN DOOR TO A LAWSUIT IF SOMEONE WERE TO BE MURDERED DUE TO A DOOR THAT DIDN'T LOCK, ALTHOUGH THE DRIVER PUSHED THE LOCK BUTTON AND HEARD THE LOCKING NOISE. REMEMBER, IN THIS CASE THERE'S NO OBVIOUS INDICATION THE DOOR ISN'T LOCKED UNLESS SOMEONE WALKS UP AND OPENS IT FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE DRIVE "THINKS" THE DOOR IS LOCKED, WHEN IN REALITY IT'S AN "OPEN DOOR" FOR CARJACKING OR ROBBERY. THIS FAILURE IS AN INTERMITTENT OF OPERATION. SOMETIMES THE DOORS LOCK OK, OTHER TIMES THEY DON'T. IN ADDITION, SOMETIMES THE DOORS UNLOCK OK, OTHER TIMES THEY DON'T. 3. IN EMERGENCIES IT'S IMPORTANT TO BE ABLE TO UNLOCK DOORS QUICKLY. SINCE 99% OF THE TIME WE ALL USE THE BUTTON TO LOCK AND UNLOCK DOORS, USING THE MANUAL LOCKING LEVER IS UNFAMILIAR. AND THE MURANO'S DESIGN IS SUCH THAT IT'S NOT EASY TO COMPREHEND IF IT'S NOT YOUR CAR, FOR INSTANCE A RENTAL CAR. I CAN EASILY UNDERSTAND HOW SOME PEOPLE WOULD BE CONFUSED HOW UNLOCK A DOOR USING THE MANUAL LEVEL IN AN EMERGENCY WHEN THEY VIRTUALLY HAVE NO EXPERIENCE WITH IT. IN EMERGENCIES EVERY SECOND COUNTS. THE LOCKING/UNLOCKING SOLENOID MALFUNCTIONING IS CLEARLY A HIGH RISK IN EMERGENCY SCENARIOS. SOME PEOPLE WHO CANNOT AFFORD THE $1600 TO HAVE ALL THE SOLENOIDS REPLACED (AS QUOTED BY DEALERS) WILL FORGO GETTING THEM FIXED, PUTTING THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS AT RISK WITH THE ABOVE MISHAP EXAMPLES. THIS SHOULDN'T BE, NISSAN SHOULD RECALL THEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2008 MAXIMA SE WHICH I PURCHASED LAST YEAR. THE CAR CONTINUES TO JERK (HARD) WHEN THE CAR IS SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND AND 2ND TO 3RD, AND IT ALSO HAPPENS ON THE DOWNSHIFT FROM 2ND TO 1ST. THE CAR WAS PROBLEM-FREE FOR THE 1ST YEAR BUT FOR THE PAST 3-4 MONTHS IT HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE. THE JERKING GETS SO BAD, IT FEELS LIKE YOU'RE GETTING PUNCHED! THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND RARELY OCCURS ON THE HIGHWAY. PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW I CAN GET THIS DEFECTIVE VEHICLE FIXED...AT NO COST TO THE OWNER SINCE IT'S OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURE PROBLEM. I HAVE SPOKE WITH OTHER NISSAN MAXIMA OWNERS AND HAVE READ SEVERAL FORUMS AND THEY ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM! *TR

MY NISSAN ALTIMA HAS GONE THROUGH 2 CATALYTIC CONVERTS AND IS BURNING 2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 100 MILES. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2001 NISSAN PATHFINDER FROM A FAMILY MEMBER. THE BOSE 6 CD CHANGER COMES UP WITH AN ERROR MESSAGE ERR2. I'M BEING TOLD THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE: THAT NISSAN KNOWS ABOUT BUT WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE. I'M TRYING TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF THIS. IS THERE ANY RECOURSE WITH NISSAN? *TR

FIRST DAY FOR PICK UP, HEADLIGHT POP, FIX IT THE NEXT DAY, TOOK 90 MINUTES JUST TO FIX ONE HEADLIGHT, AFTER 6 WEEKS, CAR TURNS OFF WHEN DRIVING ONE OF THE MOST BUSIEST HWY AND THE STEERING LOCKS; ONLY WAY TO START IT IS BY PUTTING IT TO "PARK" HOLD BRAKES DOWN ALL THE WAY THEN PUSH THE BUTTON AND COMING FROM THAT, IT WAS NOT SAFE AT ALL, DRIVERS WERE HONKING AND SWERVING JUST TO MANEUVER AWAY FROM ME, CALLED DEALERSHIP TO WHERE I PURCHASE CAR TO FIX THE PROBLEM, TOLD THEM THAT THE CAR HAD TURNED OFF 4 TIMES ON THE SAME HWY AND THANK GOD IT TURNED OFF ON A STRAIGHT AWAY NOT WHILE TURNING, SHOWED THEM A VIDEO IN WHICH I INTEND TO HOLD FOR EVIDENCE. DROP IT OFF 7:00AM, DEALERSHIP HAD SAID ABOUT CODES; THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR AND HAD REPLUG EVERY PLUG THAT WAS ON THE CAR IN WHICH IT WOULD BE RESET, GAVE CAR BACK WITHIN 9 HOURS SAYING THE CAR WILL NOT TURN OFF AGAIN AND IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN BRING IT BACK. AFTER A WEEK AND A HALF, THE CAR HAD TURNED OFF PLUS WITH THE GAUGES(NOT KNOWING THE SPEED I WAS GOING) AND RADIO DISPLAY WENT OUT AND THIS IS WHEN IT WAS RAINING HECTIC AND I WASN'T ABLE TO USE HIGH BEAMS AUTOMATICALLY TO WHERE IT LOCKS FORWARD BUT TO PULL IT TOWARDS ME MANUALLY WHILE DRIVING. ALREADY TOLD DEALERSHIP THAT THIS CAR IS A BIG CONCERN ON THE ROAD FOR SAFETY BECAUSE WHEN IT TURNS OFF I BECOME A CRASHING INCIDENT IN WHICH IF THAT HAPPENS I WILL BLAME NISSAN FOR THAT. *TR
