2017 NISSAN ALTIMA Complaints

THE CAR HAS A DELAY WHEN ACCELERATING, WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP. YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL NOT TO PUSH TOO FAR ON THE ACCELERATOR SINCE THE CAR WILL EVENTUALLY ACCELERATE. THE TACHOMETER WILL ALSO GO UP TO 5000 RPM WHEN GOING BETWEEN 55 AND 60MPH. IT WILL NOT SHIFT DOWN AT HIGH WAY SPEED. THE ONLY WAY TO CORRECT EITHER ISSUE IS TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON. BOTH ISSUES ARE INTERMITTENT BUT IF ONE OCCURS THE OTHER DOES ALSO. THIS ONLY HAPPENS AFTER COME TO A STOP A FREE DRIVING FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. THE VEHICLE IS JUST UNDER THREE YEARS OLD WITH 54,000 MILES. RECENTLY I HAD THE DEALER LOOK AT IT AND I HAD TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGED/INSPECTED, CODES/COMPUTER CHECKED AND THE PROGRAM UPDATED FOR A GRAND TOTAL OF $330. TIME WILL TELL IF FIXED THE ISSUE. I HAD TO PAY FOR THIS EVEN THOUGH I AM UNDER THE 60000 POWERTRAIN WARRANT AND THE 60000 MILE RECOMMENDED TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGE. *TR

THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR CAN'T BE OPENED FROM THE INSIDE. CABLING CAME LOOSE FROM THE HANDLE APPARENTLY. DOOR IS ABLE TO BE OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE. IT WAS LIKE THE CHILD SAFETY LOCK WAS ON. ALSO THE FRONT FLOOR MAT EYE HOOK RING TORE AWAY FROM THE FLOOR MAT ALLOWING IT TO MOVE UP UNDER THE GAS AND BREAK PEDAL. *TR

I BOUGHT A USED 2017 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH NO PROBLEMS WITH IT AND NO ACCIDENTS SINCE I'VE HAD IT. THERE'S QUITE COLLECTION OF WATER ON THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE. NO LEAKS FROM THE ROOF, DOORS, OR WINDOWS. *TR

THE FOB HAD STOPPED WORKING ONLY THING IT'S DOES IS START THE CAR NO REMOTE START NOT UNLOCK DOORS. AFTER PAYING 200 FOR A NEW PHONE TO BE PROGRAMMED NOT TO MUCH THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS I HAVE SPENT IN GETTING LOCK OUT ASSISTANCE FOR LOCKING KEYS IN CAR A FOB IS EASILY LOST WHEN IT HAD TO BE UNATTACHED FROM THE DOOR KEY ITSELF. *TR

MY CAR GET CRAZY ELECTRICAL DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE TRANSMISSION SLEEP ALONE 5 MINUTES LATER CAR TURN ON BY SELF LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED WHEN STAR HAPPENED I TRY TO STOP THE CAR BRAKE DON'T WORK CAR STILL RUNNING ONLY THINK ITS WORK EMERGENCY BRAKE. *TR

IT WAS CLEAR FOR ME TO PULL OUT ON TO THE HIGHWAY FROM A COMPLETE STOP. AS I WAS ALMOST IN MY LANE OF TRAFFIC MY CAR STARTED JERKING, SLIPPING, AND WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE SAFELY. *TR

AFTER DRIVING HOME FROM A TRIP TO THE LAKE OUR CAR STARTED HAVING DIFFICULTY ACCELERATING FROM STOP LIGHTS IN DRIVE. . IT WOULD SEEM TO STALL OUT AND NOT ACCELERATE. LUCKILY IT WORKED ENOUGH TO GET US THE LAST MILE HOME. TODAY (THE NEXT DAY) MY HUSBAND WENT TO GO RUN ERRANDS AND AFTER PUTTING THE 2017 NISSAN ALTIMA INTO GEAR THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE. THE CAR IS PARKED IN OUT DRIVEWAY. THERE IS A WHINING SOUNDS THAT COMES OUT OF THE ENGINE WHILE IDLING. WHEN THE CAR IS PUT INTO GEAR THE WHINING GETS LOUDER AND THE RPMS WILL JUMP UP BUT THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL. NO MATTER WHAT GEAR THE VEHICLE IS PUT IN. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HER RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY BACK IN FEBRUARY AND MY CAR STOPPED AT A CERTAIN SPEED AND WHEN I TRIED TO GO FASTER THE CAR WOULDN'T PICK UP SPEED. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON.I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE I'VE STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT AND WHEN TIME TO GO THE CAR SEEM TO STALL FOR A MINUTE BEFORE MOVING. JUST A FEW DAYS AGO MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I TOOK IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC TO BE TOLD THE CODE THAT CAME UP WAS P0776 AND I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION. THE MECHANIC CALLED NISSAN AND WAS TOLD THEY MY MODEL AND YEAR CAR DOES NOT HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THEY WILL NOT COVER IT. I HAVEN'T EVEN HAD THIS CAR FOR 3 YEARS YET. I'M CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY IN THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE 3 KIDS WHICH ONE IS A NEWBORN THAT I TRANSPORT IN THIS VEHICLE. NISSAN NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS.

THIS IS THE 2ND NISSAN ALTIMA WITH TRANSMISSION/POWER TRAIN ISSUES. THE FIRST I IMMEDIATELY RETURNED THINKING THAT PERHAPS IT WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. MY CAR DOES NOT WANT TO ENGAGE ON TAKE OFF. THE RPMS GO UP REALLY HIGH AND THE CAR BARELY TAKES OFF. THIS OCCURS DURING ALL WEATHER CONDITIONS ON ALL TERRAINS.
