2013 NISSAN ALTIMA Complaints

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM PASSENGERS DO NOT WANT TO RIDE IN MY CAR BECAUSE THEY FEAR FOR THEIR SAFETY. I CANNOT SEE MORE THAN A FEW FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR UNLESS I HAVE HIGH BEAMS ON. THIS IS THE CASE ON COUNTRY ROADS AT NIGHT. IN THE CITY, I MUST COMPLETELY RELY ON STREET LIGHTS AS THEY OVERWHELM THE HEADLIGHTS OF MY CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, THE HEADLAMPS FAILED TO ADEQUATELY PROVIDE ILLUMINATION FOR SAFE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SHEEHY NISSAN OF MANASSAS LOCATED AT (9010 LIBERIA AVE, MANASSAS, VA 20110). THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT BOTH HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO THE PROJECTOR BOWL FADING. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 74,254.

LIGHTING THE HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AT NIGHT HARD TO SEE WITHOUT THE BRIGHTS ON. WAS INFORMED THAT REFLECTIVE MATERIAL DETERIORATION IS THE CAUSE. NO RECALL FROM THE MANUFACTURER. TRANSMISSION THE CVT TRANSMISSION HAS GONE OUT ON ME AT 67,000 AND AGAIN AT ABOUT 186000 MILES. NO COMPENSATION OR RECALL FROM THE MANUFACTURER ON THIS EITHER. POOR QUALITY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REVERSING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED RESTARTED THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED AN ADDITIONAL 5 TIMES BEFORE THE VEHICLE STARTED TO OPERATE AS INTENDED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL DAYS LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. CANNON NISSAN OF JACKSON LOCATED AT (905 I 20 FRONTAGE RD, JACKSON, MS 39204, 601-360-7490) CONFIRMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. A CASE WAS FILED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 156,749.

THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE DIMMED AND CAN BARELY SEE AT NIGHT. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT IS KNOWN BY NISSAN AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS ISSUES REPORTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET. THIS MUST BE CORRECTED BY THE MANUFACTURER IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. I OWN 2 OF THESE VEHICLES AND THEY BOTH HAVE THE SAME ISSUES WITH POOR HEADLIGHT PROJECTION! THE HEADLIGHT REFLECTOR DETERIORATION IS SO BAD THAT I CAN SEE THE SHADOW OF MY CAR IN MY HEADLIGHT BEAMS FROM THE CAR'S HEADLIGHTS BEHIND ME. I DO NOT FEEL THAT THE OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES SHOULD BEAR THE COST FOR REPLACEMENT OF OEM PARTS AND/OR AFTERMARKET PARTS DUE TO THIS ISSUE BEING THE #2 COMPLAINT ON NHTSA WEBSITE BEHIND AIRBAGS AND AMOUNTS TO 15% OF ALL COMPLAINTS FILED AGAINST THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD ISSUE RECALL IMMEDIATELY FOR INSPECTION AND REPAIR/REPLACEMENT RESOLUTION BY CERTIFIED DEALER.

MY TRANSMISSION HAS FAILED TWICE WITHIN 6 MONTHS AND MY CAR TURNS OFF ON ITS OWN WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE DIMMED OVER TIME TO THE POINT THAT THEY DO NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION TO ALLOW FOR NIGHT DRIVING.

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING VERY POOR LIGHTING FROM MY 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA HEADLAMPS. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, LIGHTING IS TERRIBLE AND VERY UNSAFE. I HAVE MENTIONED TO DEALER MANY TIMES, AND THEY HAVE TOLD ME THERE IS NO CURRENT RECALL. I'M SHOCKED, AS I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE, AND THE NHTSB HAS NOT RECALLED THESE VEHICLES FOR SAFETY CONCERNS. WHY IS NISSAN DOING NOTHING???

PURCHASED MY CAR IN 2014 WITH 36000 MILES. AROUND 55,000 MILES THE GEAR SHIFTER COMPLETELY WENT OUT. NOW I'M AT 107,000 MILES AND MY CAR IS STALLING WHEN STOPPED. THE CAR IS NOT READING ANYTHING ON THE DIAGNOSTIC TESTS AT THE DEALERSHIP AND NO ONE IS ABLE TO TELL ME WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. I LIVE IN A HIGH TRAFFIC AREA SO THIS IS A VERY BIG DEAL.
