2006 NISSAN ALTIMA Complaints

I WAS TRAVELING HOME AROUND 9:45 PM FROM CHALMETTE, LA WHEN THE CAR GAVE NO WARNING SIGNS THAT IT WAS GOING TO STOP. I KEEP COASTING THE CAR HOME AND IT DIED. HAD THE CAR TOLD TO THE DEARLERSHIP IN SLIDELL, LA ON 4/3/14. I WAS ADVISED BY MR. DALE SHOCKLEY THAT THEY WILL HAVE TO KEEP THE CAR. CALLED AROUND 0845 TO CHECK WHAT IS WRONG BUT THEY HAD NOT LOOKED AT IT. AROUND 11:30 MR. SHOCKLEY CALLED TO SAY THE TRANSMISSION WAS GONE. I ASKED THEM HOW THAT HAPPEN BECAUSE THERE IS NO OIL UNDER MY CAR PART. THE MANAGER STATED THAT THIS JUST HAPPEN AND THEY NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WAS GOING TO GO OUT. I ASKED THEM WHY THEY DID NOT SEE IT AND THE MANAGER STATED AGAIN THEY GO OUT UNSUCCEPLY. THESE PEOPLE WANTED TO KEEP MY CAR AND TOLD ME IT WAS GOING TO COST THEM $4,045 PLUS OTHER WORK. THIS IS A DISGRACE. DID THEY SEE THIS BLACK GIRL TO ROB HER. I NEED TO KNOW IF THE PART NEXT TO THE TRANSMISSION HAS A RECALL? *JS

I HAD A RECALL ON MY 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5L & I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER IN 2010 BECAUSE THE CAR ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF WHEN DRIVEN. IT OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES & SEVERAL TIMES IT OCCURRED ON A HIGHWAY GOING AT 60 MILES PER HOURS. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER & THE CHANGED THE PART BECAUSE OF THE RECALL. AFTER BATTLING FOR MONTH TO GET MY MONEY BACK FORM THE DEALER THE PROBLEM IS OCCURRING AGAIN. IN 2012. I TRIED TO TRADE IT IN BUT THEY UNDER VALUED MY CAR BECAUSE OF THE RECALL HISTORY AT $2,500. I NEED HELP & NISSAN IS REFUSING TO PAY FULL TRADE VALUE ON A RECALL. ALL I WANT IS THE PROBLEM FIX PERMANENTLY INSTEAD OF HAVING THIS ONGOING PROBLEMS. NISSAN IS NOT TAKING MY CONCERN SERIOUSLY & I AM GETTING ROB ON A PROBLEM THAT IS NOT MY FAULT. *TR

2006 NISSAN ALTIMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE FAULTY AIR BAG SYSTEM. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. NISSAN INFORMED THE CONSUMER IT WOULD COST $1900, TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG.

THE FLOOR BOARD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE IS RUSTED OUT. ABOUT THE SIZE OF 12"X12".I HAVE CHECKED ON LINE AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH 2002-2006 NISSAN ALTIMA. THIS IS A UNSAFE ISSUE. WHY HAS NISSAN NOT CORRECTED THIS PROBLEM?THIS WAS A ISSUE YEARS AGO WITH CARS. THE METAL MUST BE OF VERY POOR QUALITY.

WHILE DRIVING HOME ON THE APPROACH TO THE NEW YORK STATE THRUWAY (RT. 87 NORTH) THERE WERE SEVERAL CARS ENTERING THE NYS THRUWAY. NOT MORE THAN 2 MILES ON THE NEW YORK STATE THRUWAY NEAR EXIT 15A (SLOATSBURG) MY VEHICLE HIT A SERIES OF POT HOLES ON THE ROADWAY. MY TIRE WENT FLAT IMMEDIATELY AND I WAS ABLE TO STEER TOWARD THE SHOULDER AT MILE MARKER 31.5. I THEN PROCEEDED TO CALL MY AAA EMERGENCY SERVICE AND WENT ON TO LET THEM KNOW MY EXACT LOCATION. WHILE PULLED OVER ON THE SHOULDER, THERE WERE 8 - 10 VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. NOTHING BUT FLAT TIRES! I WAS INSTRUCTED MY AAA SERVICE COULD NOT ENTER THE NYS AS INSTRUCTED BY THE NYS POLICE. I TAKE THIS WAY HOME NIGHTLY RETURNING HOME FROM WORK. IT HAS GOTTEN SO BAD, I WATCH THE ROAD MORE THAN I WATCH FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE! I EXPECT TO HEAR FROM SOMEONE ASAP [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ON 2-17-14 I HAD CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND ON FRIDAY HAD DEALER PUT IT ON THE DIAGNOSTIC. RESULT WAS PO 420 REPLACE MANIFOLD/BOLT AND GASKETS. THIS WAS AT 132,000 MILES BUT WE HAVE PROBLEMS WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION ALSO. CHANGE OIL EVERY 3000 MILES BUT END UP PUTTING IN 4 MORE QUARTS BESIDES OIL CHANGE AMOUNT BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE IS DUE. HAD BOTH O2 SENSORS AND MASS AIRFLOW SENSOR CHANGED LAST YEAR AND PASSENGER FRONT SIDE BALL BEARING REPLACE. TWO YRS EARLIER HAD BOTH CRANK SENSORS REPLACED. MAY HAVE TO HAVE CAT CONVERTER REPLACED IF KEEPS DRINKING THE OIL BUT WAS TOLD BY DEALER IF REPLACE CAT CONVERT STILL WILL HAVE OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM ( SO MEANS COMPANY REALLY HASN'T FIXED PROBLEM IF HAVE IT REPLACE AND WILL STILL HAPPEN). EXPENSIVE REPAIRS CRANKS ABOUT $500, O2 ABOUT $300 EA., MASS AIRFLOW $700, AND THIS MANIFOLD PROBLEM IS $780 + 106 FOR DIAGNOSTICS. FIX PROBLEM AND LOOK AT OTHER BLOGS AND SEE MANY HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS YR OF ALTIMA. *TR
