2006 NISSAN ALTIMA Complaints

NISSAN NEEDS TO TAKE OWNERSHIP FOR THEIR HORRIBLE VCT TRANSMISSIONS. I HAVE AN ALTIMA AND TRANSMISSION JUST WENT OUT ON ME. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND THERE IS THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS WITH TYE SAME ISSUE!!! THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON CVT TRANSMISSIONS AS THEY ARENT MENT TO BE PUT ON CARS AND NISSAN KNOWS THIS! NOW IM BEING TOLD IT COST THOUSANDS TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. FOR WHAT FOR ANOTHER CRAPPY TRANSMISSION WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS. RECALL NOW!!!

VEHICLE TRIES TO START BUT WON'T. VEHICLE IS STATIONARY WHILE TRYING TO START. BATTERY IS FINE, THERE'S ENOUGH GAS, IT TRIES TO START BUT WON'T TURN OVER.

THE BRAKE LIGHT AND BATTERY LIGHT COME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY THE CAR FEEL S LIKE IT WANTS TO STALL. BUT GOES AWAY. THEN IT HA COMING ON MORE AND MORE AND AS I DRIVE ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL MY RPMS SPEED GO FROM 40 ,60 OR AT 80 DROP TO ZERO . LIKE THE CAR WANTS TO DIE BUT KICKS BACK ON. IT HAPPENS AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR DRIVING THE INTERMEDIATE BRAKE BATTERY LIGHT COMING ON. ONCE THE CAR WARMS UP IS WHEN I NOTICE IT STARTING. IT HAPPENS ON CITY STREETS, BUT THE ALL RPMS AND SPEEDOMETER DROPPED SEVERAL TIMES LAST WEEK 9 TIMES IN A 15 MILE SPAN AS I WAS ON A INTERSTATE.

THE FUEL GAUGE IS INACCURATE AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHTS ILLUMINATES WITH FAULT CODE P0462. MONEY SPENT UNNECESSARILY ON BRAND NEW FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. OCCURS BOTH STATIONARY AND IN MOTION PROBLEM OCCURS.

MY 2006 ALTIMA STARTED MAKING A TICK SOUND AROUND 80,000 MILES AND AROUND 115,000 MILES IN 2014 MY ENGINE FAILED. WHILE AT A RED LIGHT MY ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE I HAD ROCKS IN A TIN CAN. MY ENGINE WAS STILL UNDER FEDERAL WARRANTY BUT NISSAN WOULDNT HELP ME BECAUSE THEY SAID I SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR IN BUT I WAS OUT OF DEALER WARRANTY SO I DIDNT KNOW. I ASKED THEM ABOUT THE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION RECALL AND THEY SAID MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF IT BUT AFTER MONTHS OF RESEARCH I CONCLUDED THAT IT WAS DUE TO MY EFN BEING LISTED UNDER THE RECALL INFORMATION REPORT PROVIDED BY NISSAN, THEY STILL DIDN'T ACKNOWLEDGE MY ISSUE. I ENDED UP REPLACING THE ENGINE MYSELF IN 2014 FOR A TOTAL OF $3600 AND $1000 FOR LABOR AND HAVE BEEN DRIVING IT SINCE. I CALLED NISSAN, I SUBMITTED MY COMPLAINT BY MAIL AND I TOLD THEM MY ENGINE WAS UNDER WARRANTY UNTIL 150,000 MILES FEDERALLY (I HAD 120,000 AT THE TIME) BUT THEY JUST OVERLOOKED MY COMPLAINT AND NEVER DID ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED ENGINE STALLING, RUNNING HARD DURING IDLE, SEVERAL ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED, AND EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION.

TAKATA RECALL THE CAR USES EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL AND GETS POOR GAS MILEAGE. THE CAR ALSO HAS SLIPPING TRANSMISSION AT TIMES WHEN EXCELERATING. SUSPENSION IS ALSO AN ISSUE.

I WAS DRIVING 2 WEEKS AGO N I WAS DONIG ABOUT 45 OR 50 WHEN IT JUST SHUT OFF BY ITS SELF NO WARNING OR NOTHING N ITS COSTED ME LOTS OF MONEY ON TOP OF JUST REPLACING ALMOST THE WHOLE FRONT SUSPENSION I WAS ON A CITY SREET IN MOTION WHEN IT JUST CUT OFF 6
