2006 NISSAN ARMADA Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN ARMADA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED QUARTER OF A TANK WHICH WAS INACCURATE. THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF, AS A RESULT OF A LACK OF GASOLINE IN THE FUEL TANK. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON NINE SEPARATE OCCASIONS AT ANY SPEED RATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FOR THE MALFUNCTION. THE FAILURES OCCURRED BEFORE THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 10V074000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER: STORAGE: FUEL GAUGE SYSTEM). THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 45,000.

RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING ABS SYSTEM SEEMS TO ENGAGE AND NORMAL BRAKE FUNCTION IS LOST. USUALLY THIS OCCURS AFTER A STOP AND BEGINS NEXT TIME I PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL. OCCURS ABOUT ONCE A MONTH. TO RESOLVE IT WE HAVE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTART THE CAR. *TR

APPLIED PRESSURE TO BRAKE TO AVOID A COLLISION. BRAKE ARM SNAPPED INTO. NO BRAKES. VEHICLE TRAVELED 100 FT. BEFORE STOPPING. HAD TO EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP. NISSAN AS DONE NOTHING AS OF YET. THE BRAKE PEDAL, PIECES AND ARM ARE IN OUR POSSESSION. *TR

2006 NISSAN ARMADA- STALLS WITHOUT WARNING LEAVING VEHICLE STRANDED IN TRAFFIC, DASH LIGHTS FLASH AND NO VEHICLE CODES AVAILABLE. IPDM OR CONTROLLER REPLACED TO FIX. *TR

CAR STALLS WHILE IN MOTION. RESTARTS AFTER 4-5 CRANKS. THIS OCCURRED ABOUT TEN TIMES BEFORE CAR TAKEN TO DEALER. WHEN CAR STALLS / ENGINE STOPS AND THE LOSS OF STEERING ABILITY AND BRAKE ASSIST IS REDUCED. THIS OCCURRED ONCE ON THE INTERSTATE IN THE #1 LANE WITH NO EMERGENCY LANE AVAILABLE. CAUSING SEVERAL NEAR MISSES BY OTHER CARS IN TRYING TO COAST TO THE RIGHTSIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CAR RESTARTED AFTER SEVERAL CRANKS AND WAS DRIVEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER. THE IPDM WAS REPLACED UNDER THE DIAGNOSE OF A INTERMITTENT OPEN CIRCUIT INSIDE THE MODULE. ALSO THIS ISSUE NEVER GAVE ANY TROUBLE CODES OR EVEN NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT.. THIS STALLING WOULD OCCUR ANYTIME WITHOUT WARNING.THE OLD PART WAS NOT RETURNED TO ME EVEN THOUGH I REQUESTED IT BEFORE REPAIRS WERE MADE. THE SERVICE WRITER APPARENTLY DID NOT TELL THE MECHANIC. THE COST TO REPLACE THE MODULE WAS $439.00.*TR

EVERY 3 OR 4 MONTHS, MY 2006 ARMADA WILL HAVE A GRINDING NOISES WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WILL COME ON. I WILL NOT HAVE ANY BRAKES WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND I ALWAYS NEED TO STOP THE TRUCK, TURN IT OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON. THIS SEEMS TO RE-CALIBRATE THE SYSTEM AND IT WILL BE FINE FOR A FEW MONTHS. IT SEEMS NISSAN SHOULD RECALL THE 2006 ARMADA AND FIX THIS CALIBRATION PROBLEM BEFORE A TRAGEDY TAKES PLACE. *TR

ABS SYSTEM CAUSES BRAKES TO THINK THEY HAVE GONE OUT. STOPS IF I TURN CAR OFF AND RESTART. ALSO ANOTHER ITEM: SEAT BELTS LIGHT FLASHES CONSTANTLY EVEN THOUGH ALL SEAT BELTS ARE FASTENED. I UNDERSTAND THIS INTERFERS WITH THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. *TR

MY HUSBAND HAVE A 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA AND THE CLUTCH FAILS DAILY. WE HAVE NOTIFIED NISSAN AND WE HAVE GONE ONLINE TO PLACE COMPLAINTS ALONG WITH OTHER PEOPLE REGARDING THE CLUTCH PROBLEM WITH THE 2006 NISSAN. WHEN WE TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP HE WAS TOLD THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER WAS BAD WHICH IS STATED ON THE NISSAN SITE. I HAVE A 2006 ARMARDA SUV AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WILL COME ON DAILY AND THE BRAKES WILL STOP WORKING INSTANTLY. I HAD THE BRAKES REPLACED AND THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED. I HAVE ALSO PLACED THIS COMPLAINT ON THE NISSAN SITE WITH NO RESPONSE BACK. THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE 2006 SUV BRAKES AND I FEEL NISSAN SHOULD RECALL THE SUV'S ALONG WITH THE ALTIMA AND REPLACE THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND THE CLUTCH. THIS HAS HAPPEN MANY TIMES AND CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. BY THE GRACE OF GOD WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLES. *TR

MY COMPLAINT IT ABOUT THE 2006 ARMADA, THE WINDSHIELD POST ARE TO THICK, THEY OBSTRUCT YOUR VIEW TO MUCH . MY WIFE AND CHILD ALL MOST LOST THEIR LIFE'S PULLING OUT OF A SIDE ROAD, THE WINDSHIELD POST WILL HIDE AN ENTIRE MAC TRUCK! I MYSELF NOTICED IT THE FIRST TIME I ALMOST RAN OVER SOME KIDS ON BIKES , WE HAVE COME CLOSE TO HEAVING AT LEAST 10 WRECKS . I WANT MY MONEY THAT I PAID FOR THIS VEHICLE BACK BECAUSE IT IS NOT SAFE I KNOW WE ARE NOT THE ONLY FAMILY THAT IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM .YOU SHOULD CHECK IN TO THIS FOR US . I THOUGHT THEIR WAS A LIMIT ON HOW WIDE THE WINDSHIELD POST COULD BE . *TR

"FOR ABOUT THE LAST 6 MONTHS WE HAVE EXPERIENCED A HALF DOZEN TIMES OR SO AN ISSUE WITH BRAKES NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE BRAKES PULSATE WHEN PUSHED AS THOUGH THE ABS IS KICKING IN, GRINDING IS FELT AND HEARD AND BRAKING ONLY BARELY WORKS. THIS ONLY SEEMS TO OCCUR AT LOWER (NON-FREEWAY) SPEEDS AND THE ISSUE USUALLY CORRECTS ITSELF UPON SHUTTING THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTING. APPEARS OUR ISSUE IS TO TSB NTB06-040, BUT I AM NOT SURE AT THIS POINT. GOING TO TRY TO GET IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP THIS WEEK AND HOPEFULLY GET THIS ISSUE FIXED. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE ON THE NET AND IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE (SEE COMPLAINT #S BELOW) WITH SOME PEOPLE HAVING ACCIDENTS. MY WIFE NORMALLY IS THE DRIVER AND CARRYING MY 3 YEAR OLD TWINS....WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR THIS ISSUE TO HAVE A RECALL???
