2010 NISSAN ALTIMA Complaints

MY DASH BOARD IS SUPER STICKY/TACKY, AND HAS A GLARE WHEN DRIVING, WHEN TRYING TO REMOVE THE FRONT PIECES WITH A PRY TOOL, THE DASH PEELS OFF IN CHUNKS AND REMAINS STUCK ON YOUR FINGER/ PRY TOOL LIKE A MELTED WAX. IT'S NOT THE SAME CONSISTENCY AS THE GLOVE BOX, YOU CAN STICK YOUR FINGERNAIL IN IT AND IT LEAVES INTENTIONS, MY PAINT IS ALSO COMING OFF IN LARGE SPOTS ALL OVER THE CAR.

THERE IS A OIL SMELL COMING THROUGH THE AIR CONDITION VENT WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE AT A STOP SIGN AND WHEN THE HEAT IS ON.THE SMELL IS STRONG .THE ONLY TIME WHEN THE SMELL IS NOT COMING OUT IS WHEN THE AC/HEATER IS OFF OR WHEN I HAVE THE UNIT ON CIRCULATION AND AC ON AT THE SAME TIME.IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW FAR I TRAVEL THE SMELL IS THERE.THE VOLUME CONTROL OF THE AC/HEATER HAS A DELAY OF COMING ON,.I WANT TO KNOW WHY IS THIS CAR DOING THIS ,IT'S A 2010 IT ALSO LOOK LIKE IT HAS SOME WATER DAMAGE.

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND HAS A VERY BAD GLARE WHEN THE SUN IS OUT. THIS CAUSES VISION TO BE VERY POOR AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND OTHER CARS AND PEDESTRIAN. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND DIFFICULT TO SEE WHILE DRIVING DUE TO THE GLARE. THE ISSUE WITH THE DASHBOARD IS THE SAME AS THE LAWSUIT THAT WAS FILED AGAINST NISSAN BY A GIRARD GIBBS AND NISSAN LOST. BUT IT WAS FOR 2008-2009 MODELS. I TOOK THE CAR TO NISSAN AND THE COST TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD IS $2634.

ON MY WAY TO WORK ON A RAINY DAY, I WAS MAKING A TURN AT A INTERSECTION. I LOSS CONTROL OF MY CAR & HIT A TREE. THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOYED WHEN MY CAR HIT A TREE. I WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE WESTCHESTER MEDICAL CENTER TRAUMA ER. I SUSTAINED A FRACTURED STERNUM & BRUISED RIBS. *TT *JS

TAKATA INFLATORS: ONE OF MY VEHICLES (THE OTHER IS A 2013 FORD FUSION VIN [XXX]), WAS ISSUED A RECALL NOTICE REGARDING THE TAKATA INFLATORS. I WAS INFORMED REPEATEDLY THAT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE AND I WOULD BE INFORMED WHEN THEY WERE IN STOCK. I DO NOT HAVE THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENTATION REGARDING THIS RECALL AND CANNOT RECALL WHICH OF MY VEHICLES WAS PINPOINTED, THE INFLATORS HAVE NOT BEEN CHANGED ON EITHER OF MY VEHICLES, BUT MYSTERIOUSLY, NEITHER SHOWS UP ON THE TAKATA RECALL LIST. CAN YOU TELL ME HOW OR WHY THIS SHOULD BE THE CASE? I FEEL THAT SOMETHING HAS "SLIPPED THRU THE CRACKS". INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE INCIDENT HAPPENED THE WEEK OF 02/08/18 MY WIFE NOTICED SOME LIGHT VDC SLIP ABS LIGHTS ALL CAME ON THEM WHILE ON HIGHWAY ALL OF THE BRAKES LOCKED AND SHE COULD NOT ACCELERATE CAR.

I WENT TO START MY ALTIMA ONE DAY AND IT WOULDN'T START. NOTICED THE STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED AND IT NEVER DOES THIS. WENT ON YOUTUBE AND SAW VIDEOS ABOUT A QUICK FIX ON THE ELECTRONIC STEERING LOCK COLUMN. DID WHAT THE VIDEO SAID AND THE CAR STARTED UP. CALLED NISSAN BECAUSE I FOUND A CUSTOMARY REPLACEMENT ON THIS PART FOR KNOWN DEFECTS BUT NO FULL RECALL WA ISSUED. MY VIN DID NOT POPULATE SAYING I COULD GET MINE REPLACED AND THEY QUOTED ME $1000 FOR REPLACEMENT AND LABOR. THIS DEFAULT IN LEAVES YOU STRANDED WITH NO VEHICLE. ASKED NISSAN CORPORATE IF THEY COULD MAKE AN EXCEPTION FOR MY VIN AND THEY TOLD ME NO. VERY DISPLEASED WITH THIS SERVICE.
