2009 NISSAN ALTIMA Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. DEALERSHIP SAYS ENTIRE SEAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED TO CORRECT PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR ISSUE. WILL COST OVER $1,400 TO REPLACE DUE TO SHORTAGE IN REPLACEMENT SEATS. WILL ONLY WARRANTY FOR 1 YEAR IF REPLACED.

I PURCHASED A NISSAN ALTIMA 09 AND HAVEN'T HAD ANY ISSUES UNTIL 8/03/17. AS I WENT TO TURN THE CAR ON A LIGHT CAME UP ON THE DASH BOARD INDICATING THAT THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE STEERING LOCK. I FIGURED IT WAS A QUICK FIX SO I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S A FAULTY STEERING LOCK AND ASKED FOR ME TO BRING MY CAR IN. I HAD TO CALL OUT OF WORK TO TRY AND RESOLVE THIS ONGOING ISSUE. I LOOKED ON ONLINE FOR POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS AND COULDN'T FIND ANY BUT I DID FIND THAT MANY NISSAN ALTIMA 09 OWNERS WERE DEALING WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE NO WARRANTY ON MY CAR BUT THERE HAS TO BE A WAY TO FIX MY CAR SO I WON'T BE STRANDED AND WON'T HAVE TO PAY 600$ FOR A SMALL PART...

MY NISSAN ALTIMA WAS IN A 4+ ROLLOVER AT @65 MPH, WEST BOUND ON I-8 NEAR BOULEVARD CALIFORNIA ABOUT DAWN AND JUST EAST OF SANDIEGO . WHEN A SUDDEN RAIN DOWNBURST, THE CAR HYDROPLANED AND LEFT THE ROAD AND PROCEEDED TO ROLL 4+ TIMES. I HAVE YET TO SEE THE ACCIDENT REPORT. THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND NEITHER DID THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR BAGS. THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR BAGS DEPLOYED BUT THE PASSENGERS DO NOT RECALL THEM AIRING UP. USAA HAS THE VEHICLE IN SANDIEGO SOMEWHERE. I FEEL THE PASSENGER SIDE AND DRIVER SIDE AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED IN A MULTIPLE SIDE ROLLOVER.... THE OCCUPANTS WERE AT HUGE RISK BUT FOR THE GRACE AND HANDS OF GOD, THEY WALKED AWAY, THOUGH I FEEL THAT THE CHP SHOULD HAVE FORCED A 4 YOUNG ADULTS TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL, INSTEAD EVERYONE LEAVING THE SCENE AFTER GATHERING LUGGAGE AND SUCH. INJURIES ARE UNKNOWN, BUT TYPICAL OF BEING ROLLED AT HIGH SPEED NUMEROUS TIMES, BEING SHAKEN, BRUISED, SKELETAL ALIGNMENT DISRUPTED ETC...

CATALYTIC CONVERTER NOT WORKING CAUSING THE CAR TO DRIVE INEFFECTIVELY, CAR SPEED DECLINES AND SOMETIMES THE CAR RPMS STAY AT 3000 AND WON'T ACCELERATE.

TAKATA RECALL CAN'T DRIVE TOO FAR CUZ LOSING POWER AFTER HOUR....WE CANT GO TO FAMILY VACATION ON LONG TRIPIF ITS LOWER THAN $200 THAT'S OK BUT IF IT'S CVT TRANSMISSION IT'S WAY OVER MY BUDGET IT'S COST OVER $5,000......I LOOK OVER ON GOOGLE N SEEN A LOTS OF PPL HAD THIS PROBLEM.....

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE VEHICLE GOES INTO LIMP MODE AND THE SPEED DRASTICALLY DECREASES AND LOSES ALL POWER! THERE IS NO WARNINGS.

THE PUSH-BUTTON STARTER SYSTEM FAILED, LEAVING ME STRANDED. THIS IS A STEERING LOCK ISSUE VERY COMMON TO THIS MAKE AND MODEL.

THE CAR WILL NOT START. THE DASH LIGHTS AND RADIO COME ON AND THE "ON" INDICATOR IS LIT WHERE THE PUSH BUTTON IS. HOWEVER, THE ENGINE DOES NOT START.

TRAVELING UP HILL MY CAR LOSES POWER AND GOES TO SOME KIND OF SAFTY MODE AND ITS VERT SCARY IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN' IN THE CAR

I CHANGE MY RADIATOR 2 TIMES - AND THEY CHANGE THE STEERING COLUMN LOCK AND THEY CHARGE ME 1,200 . I HAVE CHANGE THE PRESSURE SENSORS COUPLE TIMES . THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN WHEN I WAS DRIVING
