2010 NISSAN ARMADA Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ARMADA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING, THE CONTACT COULD HEAR A LOUD SOUND COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHOM DIAGNOSED THE FAILURE AS THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD NEEDING REPLACEMENT. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 127,000.

I WON A NISSAN ARMADA 2010 AND IN 2017. DRIVING TO WORK IN THE HIGHWAY, I NOTICED A RATLLING SOUND COMING FROM THE OVERHEAD CONSOLE: THE PLASTIC LATCHES ARE BRAKING. IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS, THE CONSOLE FAILLED DOWN IN THE BACK SEAT BUT WAS STIL HANGING UP BY THE WIRINGS. I BROUGTH MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I DO MY OIL CHANGE REGULARY FOR REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT, THEY ASK ME $1000.00 FOR DIAGNOSTIC OF THE PROBLEM AND WITHOUT IT, THEY CAN NOT DO THE REPAIR. I DID NOT WANT TO SPEND $1000.00 FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND GET STUCKED WITH THE REPAIR BILLS AFTERWARD. I THINGH THEY WERE DISHONEST AND THE ISSUE MUST INVESTIGATED AND A RECALL MUST BE ISSUED. I HAVE PROBLEM OPENING THE REAR LIFTGATE OR THE GLASS HATCH. SOME ANSWER.

REAR CONSOLE FELL WHILE DRIVING, ON FREEWAY. COMPLETELY FELL FROM CEILING ONLY BEING ATTACHED BY WIRING. VERY DANGEROUS, JUST FORTUNATE THAT NO ONE WAS IN THE REAR SEATS SECOND AND THIRD ROW.

EXTREMELY LOUD KNOCKING WHEN HVAC DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES TO ACCOMMODATE THE INTERIOR TEMPERATURE CHANGES. WHILE MOVING OR WHILE PARKED. WHENEVER THE ENGINE IS RUNNING.

PRIORITY NISSAN MAZDA SOLD A 2010 NISSAN ARMADA WITH AN INCORRECT OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS) ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU) AND REFUSED TO REPAIR THE SAFETY DEFECT. THE INCORRECT ECU AND SEAT COMBINATION MAY MISCLASSIFY THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANT AND WILL CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO MALFUNCTION DURING A CRASH. IF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OCCUPANT IS MISCLASSIFIED, THE AIR BAG MAY DEPLOY INCORRECTLY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY. ACCORDING TO PRIORITY NISSAN MAZDA OF VIENNA VA, THE DEALERSHIP FOUND CODES STORED B1017 OCS CONTROL - NEEDS PASSENGER SEAT ASSEMBLY TO REPLACE OCS UNIT. NISSAN HAS PREVIOUS SAFETY RECALLS FOR THE SAME TYPE OF ISSUE WITH ALL OTHER YEARS AND MODELS. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE WITH MY CHILDREN AS IT IS UNSAFE.

LETTER FROM SENATOR SCHUMER ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT RE 2010 NISSAN ARMADA SE ACTIVE RECALL. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN HE/SHE PUT THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE, THE TRANSMISSION CHANGED HARD, THEN THE VDC OFF, BRAKE, AND SLIP LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. WHEN THE CONSUMER PUT THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE, AND ACCELERATED, THE VEHICLE TOOK OFF WITH MORE TORQUE THAN IT NORMALLY DID. UPON TRYING TO STOP, THE BRAKES WENT SPONGY, AND CAME TO A SMOOTH STOP, WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. *JB

THE OVERHEAD CONSOLE FOR MY 2010 NISSAN ARMADA FELL OFF WHILE DRIVING AND HIT MY SON (SEATED IN THE MIDDLE SECOND ROW) ON THE HEAD. THE PLASTIC FASTENERS FOR THE CONSOLE JUST DISINTEGRATED AND BROKE OFF. THERE WERE ONLY 2 TINY FASTENERS FOR THE HUGE CONSOLE. WHEN THEY BROKE OFF AND THE CONSOLE SWUNG DOWN IT BROKE OFF FROM THE STEREO CONTROL PANEL. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I'VE READ SO MANY POSTS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN RECALLED. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE BASED ON POOR CONSTRUCTION.

TAKARA RECALL: AIRBAG LIGHT IS FLASHING. AFRAID THE AIRBAG WILL NOT WORK IF IN AN ACCIDENT. NISSAN DEALERSHIP WILL CHARGE $1500.00 TO REPAIR. VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE SEVERAL WEEKS AGO.

THE OVERHEAD CONSOLE LEADING FROM THE SECOND TO THIRD ROW IS STARTING TO DROP IN MY VEHICLE. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED AS WITH CHILDREN IN THE BACK ROWS, THIS COULD CAUSE HARM.

RADIATOR FAILED AND LOST ALL COOLANT. ENGINE OVERHEATED CAUSING MAJOR ENGINE DAMAGE. *TR
