2007 NISSAN MAXIMA Complaints

ABS, SLIP, TCS & BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON SUDDENLY WHILE TAKING OFF AND THERE WAS EXCESSIVE VIBRATION. AS A RESULT, THERE WAS (AND STILL IS) A TOTAL LOSS OF ABS & TCS SYSTEMS.. ENGINES REVS HIGH & SURGES WHILE TAKING 1/4 MILE TO REACH 40MPH. DIAGNOSTIC STATES THAT THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH THE ABS ACTUATOR, SPEED SENSORS & WHEEL HUB. &2,858.65 TO REPAIR. GIVEN THE LACK OF ACCELERATION RELIABILITY AS WELL AS THE LOSS OF BRAKING & TRACTION SYSTEMS, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY CHILDREN TO DAYCARE THIS MORNING WHEN I NOTICED MY BRAKES MAKING A FUNNY NOISE AND SOUND. I COULD HEAR A CLICKING SOUND FROM THE FRONT, DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL, AND THE CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE AS I TRIED TO COME TO A STOP. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY TOLD ME THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AT A COST OF $1,600. AFTER DOING MY OWN ONLINE RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF MAXIMA OWNERS OUT THERE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS HAS GOT TO BE A NISSAN DEFECT. ITS TERRIBLE THAT NISSAN CAN PUT OUT A BAD PRODUCT AND MAKE THE CONSUMER COVER THE COST OUT OF POCKET! *TR

WHEN DRIVING H THE VEHICLE HAD A LOSS OF POWER WHEN THERE WAS A HILL AND THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS LESS THAN 35 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND HAS BEEN TO A NISSAN MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE RPMS ON THE VEHICLE WILL BOUNCE BETWEEN 2000 TO 4000 RPM OR MORE BUT THE VEHICLE WILL STILL NOT ACCELERATE ANY FURTHER. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS ON THE ROAD. THE PROBLEM IS RECURRING AND HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. THE NISSAN MECHANIC SAID THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL THERE WAS A CODE SENSOR TO LOOK AT. WE WERE ALSO INFORMED TO BUY NEW TIRES WITH THE THINKING THAT MIGHT BE THE PROBLEM. *TR
