Driving down the road and my parking brake light came on when it wasn’t in park and i was on a highway. Malfunction light came on, but car runs fine and had it looked at with no problems.

THIS ERROR HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING OR JUST BY HAVING IT ON. ALSO WHILE STEREO, BULETOOTH OR CARPLAY IS ON THE VOLUME WILL DECREASE ON ITS OWN UNABLE TO TURN UP VOLUME WITH KNOB. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I BOUGHT THE CARE IN 2021

The contact owns a 2019 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the engine had experienced an electrical shock due to coolant intrusion onto the spark plugs. The mechanic determined that the engine needed to be replaced. The dealer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the engine needed to be replaced; however, the dealer had not diagnosed the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the repair could not be covered because the VIN was not under recall. The failure mileage was approximately 170,000.

I was driving 65 mph on a major highway (I-95) at 7:40am on a clear morning when my tire blew out completely. There was no debris on the road. There were no warning signs. I put on my hazards and was able to cross the lanes to pull over on the shoulder. Fortunately no one was injured, but this is how deadly accidents happen. I waited for an hour but my roadside assistance never came. A road ranger thankfully found me and helped to put in my spare. The tire is complete blown out at the seams. This is the second tire from the same company and lot that spontaneously blew out in the same way. There are recalls in similar tires produced from this same time period and I am convinced these should be recalled as well. I will be obtaining an inspection report. Tire size: 215/55 R17 94V

I own a 2019 Nissan Altima S, and recently, all three door locks except for the front passenger door stopped responding to the key fob and the button on the door. From my research, it seems that the most common cause of this issue is a faulty door lock actuator. Many users on Reddit and other forums have reported that the door lock actuators in 2019 Nissan Altimas or new models 2020, 2021 and 2022 can fail, resulting in doors that won’t lock or unlock either with the key fob or even manually. This problem can affect one or multiple doors at a time and is often attributed to a defective actuator. I spoke with a Nissan customer who refused to repair my vehicle and advised me to contact the NHTSA. They will investigate, and if approved, Nissan will repair the issue at no charge. I would like to report this issue for a potential recall and seek assistance with repairs, which are estimated to cost around $1,000

Vehicle door locks stopped working with key fob and with interior controls. Radio volume control on unit doesn’t work only the steering wheel control. Radio will randomly change station by itself. Radio will randomly turn on when car is off. Car will not start and has to be jumped for no apparent reason. Battery has had to been replaced twice in the last 4 years. Dealership has not been able to replicate any of the issues other than the door locks that where repaired under an extended warranty that we purchased. There has to be some kind of electrical issue with these cars as I have seen many other reports of same issues from other people

Malfunction indicator light will come on and stay on. I took it to autozone, they gave me a printout, they said it wasn't my battery, that it was a communication circuit problem. (CODE U1000-01) I replaced the battery anyway and it's doing the same thing, I have to jump my car off because it want start. It's very frustrating. I took my car to Nissian after I got the print out, but all they do is wanna charge me ridiculous prices that I don't have.
