2006 NISSAN ALTIMA Complaints

I PURCHASED A VEHICLE FROM PYRAMID MOTORS. THE SECOND WEEK I GOT IT I WAS HEADED TO WORK AND THE RIGHT FRONT AXLE CAME COMPLETELY OUT OF THE TRANSMISSION. I CALLED PYRAMID AND SINCE I HAD A 30 DAY WARRANTY THEY AGREED TO FIX IT THEY TOOK IT TO WEST MEMPHIS THIE TOW TRUCK GUY SAID OH IT NOTHING THE AXLE JUST SLIPPED OUT WE'LL FIX IT AND IT WILL BE READY THE NEXT MORNING. THEY CALLED THE NEXT DY AND SAID IT WAS READY. I WENT AND PICKED IT UP. A WEEK OR TWO LATER THE CRANKING SYSTEM STARTED ACTING UP AND THE SAME AXLE THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FIXED STARTED ACTING UP AGAIN AND THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION LIGHT START COMING OFF AND ON. I CALLED THEM AND TOLD THEM I WAS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM THAT WAS SUPPOSSED TO BE FIX WAS MESSING UP AGAIN. I INFORMED THEM THAT THIS WAS A PART THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN FIXED WHEN THE WARRANTY WAS STILL IN EFFECT SO I INFORMED THEM THAT I LOOKED THE CAR UP ON THE NATIONAL RECALL LIST AND THAT SOME OF THE SAME PROBLEMS THAT I WAS HAVING WS ON THAT LIST. I THEN INFORMED THEM THAT I WOULD NOT MAKE A PAYMENT UNTIL THEY AGREEDVTO FIX WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FIXED WHEN I HAD MY WARRANTY. I ALSO INFORMED THEM THAT I HAD CHECKED THE MAKE MODEL OF CAR ON THE NATIONAL RECALL LIST AND THAT IT WAS ON THERE AND THAT I SAW IT AGAIN ON THE NEWS RECENTLY AND THAT IT WAS AGAINST THE LAW TO SALE RECALL CARS THE LADY NAME JENNIFER SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PAY 937 TO RETREIVE MY CEHICLE THEN GO ACROSS THE STREET TO THE OFFICE AND TALK TO A GUY NAMED BRIAN. I ASKED WHY WOULD I HAVE TO PAY THE REPOSSESSION BEFORE SOMEONE COULD DO ANYTHING AND THEY HUNG UP WHENEBER I CALL I CANT LEAVE A MESSAGE THEY HARDLY ANSWER THE PHONE AND THEY KEEP THE ANSWERING MACHINE FULL WHERE NO MESSAGES CAN BE LEFT.

WHEN DRIVING MY CAR CLOSE 65 MILES THERE IS LIKE A SMALL CUT OF OF POWER THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON , I PUT THE OBD SCANNER AND FOUND THAT THE EMC, ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE NEEDS REPROGRAMED, AND THE CPS CRANSHAFT POSITION SENSOR IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY... I READ THAT SOME NISSAN WHERE UNDER RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE BUT DEALER DO NOT WANT TO TAKE CARE OF MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY SAID IS NOT UNDER RECALL.I READ THAT THIS ISSUE COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE CAR CAN TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING.

CAR BURNING 3 QUARTS OF OIL WEEKLY, RESULTED IN CATALYTIC CONVERTER CODE, REPLACE CONVERTER, STILL BURNING ACCESSIVE OIL WITH SMOKE BELLOWING FROM TAIL PIPE. HAVE SEEN PREVIOUS RECALLS WHILE SEARCHING FOR A SOLUTION FOR THE SAME MAKE OF MY CAR. BOUGHT USED AFRAID THE ENGINE IS GOING TO BLOW.

ON MY 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA, THERE HAS BEEN HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE RUST PROBLEM ON THE FRONT FLOORBOARDS. I HAVE A 16" BY 8" HOLE ON MY FRONT PASSENGER SIDE FLOORBOARD THAT I PUT MY FOOT INSIDE WHEN I WAS GETTING INSIDE MY CAR AND SLIGHTLY INJURED MY FOOT. THE ONLY THING HOLDING THIS HOLE IS THE CARPET THAT IS COVERING THE RUSTED OUT FLOOR PANEL. THIS IS A SUPER BIG SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED ON ALL NISSAN VEHICLES BEFORE ANY OTHER INJURIES OR COMPLAINTS TAKE PLACE. NISSAN WANTED TO CHARGE ME A $125 DIAGNOSIS FEE FOR SOMETHING YOU CAN PHYSICALLY SEE WITH YOUR OWN EYES.

TAKATA RECALL I WAS IN A AN ACCIDENT AS A PASSENGER, WE STRUCK A TREE HEAD ON AND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY I WAS PARTIALLY EJECTED THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD AND SUFFERED LIFE THREATENING INJURIES AS RESULT.

NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 07V-527 SUMMARY THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CAN OVERHEAT CAUSING A BRIEF INTERRUPTION IN THE SIGNAL OUTPUT FROM THE SENSOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CAM SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,000.

MY 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA HAS EXCESSIVE AND PREMATURE RUST ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR PAN. THERE ARE NO OTHER INDICATIONS OF RUST ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, OR ANYWHERE ELSE ON THE UNDER-BODY OF THE VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE FIRST STARTED SHOWING SYMPTOMS IN ~2011 WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND HAS CONTINUED TO WORSEN TO THE POINT WHERE IT'S DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE.

THE FLOOR PANEL UNDER THE DRIVERS SIDE HAS RUSTED OUT AND NEED TO BE REPLACED OR REPAIRED.

EXTREME RUST OF FLOORBOARDS. ON BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE OF VEHICLE, A 12"X24" AREA OF THE FLOORS ARE COMPLETELY GONE, WITH ONLY THE VEHICLE CARPET REMAINING. THIS IS MAJOR, WIDESPREAD SAFETY HAZARD ACROSS THE NISSAN PRODUCT LINE IN EARLY 2000S MODEL YEAR VEHICLES AND HAS BEEN WIDELY REPORTED ONLINE, IN PRINT, AND ON TV. IT'S A TRAVESTY THAT NHTSA HAS FAILED TO GIVE THIS ISSUE THE ATTENTION IT DESERVES AND FORCE NISSAN TO DO THE RIGHT THING IN ISSUING A RECALL. SO MANY OF THESE VEHICLES ARE STILL ON THE ROAD! THERE IS NO RUST ANYWHERE ELSE ON OUR VEHICLE; CLEARLY THIS IS A MANUFACTURING OR DESIGN FLAW. WE NOTICED THE RUST FOR THE FIRST TIME SEVERAL MONTHS AGO WHEN WE WERE IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE.
