2012 Nissan Altima

WHEN APPLYING BRAKE AT LOW SPEEDS (10-30 MPH) THE BRAKE GRABBED AND THREW OCCUPANTS FORWARD. ON ONE OCCASION THE WHEELS FROZE WITH BRAKE PEDAL ONLY 20% DEPRESSED. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT BUT REPEATABLE. DEALER CLAIMS IT IS CAUSED BY DEFECTIVE BRAKE POWER BOOSTER. VERY DANGEROUS FAILURE MODE. NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. *TR

ALTIMA WAS SERVICED AT A DEALERSHIP LESS THAN A WEEK AGO FOR OIL AND FILTER CHANGE. I WAS DRIVING THE 2012 ALTIMA FROM WORK ON 4/10/14. IT LOOKED THE CAR WAS STALLING ON THE HIGHWAY MULTIPLE TIMES. I SLOWED DOWN AND MANAGED TO GET HOME, ALL ALONG IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STOP ANY TIME, LUCKILY IT DID NOT HAPPEN. BUT THIS MORNING (4/11/14) IT STOPPED ON THE DRIVEWAY STALLED AFTER MOVING 15 FEET. TOWED THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET IT REPAIRED. *JS

BOUGHT THIS CAR NOV 30 2013 FROM THE DEALER THAT ORIGINALLY OWNED IT, IT WAS A LOANER CAR FOR THEIR SERVICE DEPT. FROM DAY ONE THAT I HAVE OWNED IT, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT GOES ON AN OFF AT WILL. WITH NOTHING IN THE SEAT, IT COMES ON AND OFF, WITH A PERSON IN THE SEAT IT ALSO COMES ON AND OFF. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE! I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT DIDN'T DO IT WHILE THEY WERE LOOKING AT IT. BRING IT BACK WHEN IT GETS WORSE.... THERE ARE ALOT OF THESE CARS OUT THERE WITH THIS PROBLEM! THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THE SENSOR/SEAT/ELECTRICAL SYSTEM RELATED TO THIS. I AM SURE THERE IS A SHORT IN THE SYSTEM. MY GRANDMOTHER'S 2012 ALTIMA ALSO DOES THIS SAME THING. ALSO SOMETHING IS LEAKING ONTO THE PASSENGER SIDE FLOORBOARD BY THE CONSOLE. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS A BODY PANEL AND "FIXED" IT, BUT IT IS STILL LEAKING IN THE SAME SPOT, I HAVE NOT HAD TIME TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER YET FOR THE LEAK. *TR

I HAD PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AT A LOCAL GYM, AS I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STAY IN DRIVE AND SURGED FORWARD INTO THE BUILDING. ONCE THE VEHICLE HIT THE BUILDING, I ONCE AGAIN TRIED TO PLACE THE CAR IN PARK, AND IT ONCE AGAIN SURGED FORWARD AND HIT THE BUILDING. THE ONLY WAY I COULD STOP THE CAR WAS TO HIT THE POWER BUTTON TO TURN THE CAR OFF. ONCE THE OFFICER ARRIVED ON SCENE, HE ASKED ME TO PLACE THE CAR IN NEUTRAL SO THAT HE COULD MOVE THE CAR OFF THE CURB, HOWEVER, THE CAR CONTINUED TO MOVE FORWARD. AS A RESULT THE CAR WAS ONCE AGAIN POWERED DOWN TO AVOID ANY FURTHER INCIDENT. *TR
