2013 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH ONLY 52K MILES I FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM WHEN I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVE WAY; FIRST IT STALLED, SHAKY WHEN I ACCELERATE SLIGHTLY IT WAS FINE. WHEN I WENT TO CHANGE TO PARK MODE; EXPERIENCE THE SAME THING STALKED&SHAKE IF I STOPPED AT A LIGHT, STOP SIGN, OR CHANGE SPEED I EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM THIS WILL HAPPEN IN BUSY TRAFFIC, HIGHWAYS IN FACT MY 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER (1ST TIME DRIVEN HERSELF HOME FROM WORK) EXPERIENCE IT, AT A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION SHE COULDN'T GET THE CAR GOING. WE HAD TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF FOR ABOUT 15-30MINUTES AND PRESSED/ PULSED THE GAS TO FINALLY GET IT TO MOVE... THIS ALL HAPPENED FOR 3 DAYS AND I TOOK IT TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP (PAYED $140 TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM) MECHANIC SAID JUST FROM DRIVING THE CAR INTO THE SHOP, 9/10 IT MAY BE THE TRANSMISSION. TO PINPOINT THE PROBLEM THEY WILL HAVE TO REMOVE THE COVER BODY ($546) AND IF IT'S THE TRANSMISSION, REPAIRS WILL COST $4600!!!! EVEN THOUGH MILEAGE IS WITHIN THE WARRANTY RANGE OF <60K IT'S NOT COVERED BECAUSE THEY CLAIMED THE CAR WAS IN AN ACCIDENT AND WAS SALVAGED. I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THAT WILL IMPACT IT GIVEN THE CAR HAD ONLY 13K WHEN I PURCHASED IT. IT SEEM THIS IS COMMON PROBLEM REPORTED BY MANY WITH THIS PARTICULAR CAR. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, COMPLAINS DATING BACK TO IDENTICAL TO ISSUES WITH 2008-2011 MODELS, MULTIPLE RECALLS... THIS SORT OF PROBLEMS COULD COURSE ACCIDENTS AND LOSS IF LIFE. THESE ARE HUMAN PROBLEMS...I BELIEVE NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND TO MUCH HIGHER STANDARDS IN THIS SPACE- VEHICLE MANUFACTURING, DEALERSHIP, PARTS, SALES, REPAIRS ETC. IF NOTHING IS DONE TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES, I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A NISSAN!!!

I AM REPORTING A DANGEROUS CONDITION WITH THE 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA TRANSMISSION. THE TRANSMISSION FAILED ON MY CAR AT 75,000 MILES WHILE DRIVING 65 - 70 MPH ON THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE. THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY BASED ON MILES (NOT TIME) AND I WAS DENIED COVERAGE BY NISSAN DUE TO WARRANTY EXPIRATION AND BECAUSE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED USED. THE TRANSMISSION HAS STUTTERED SINCE PURCHASE BUT IT SEEMED TO BE A QUIRK OF THE CAR; HOWEVER, ON DEC. 5, 2017, IT BRIEFLY WOULD NOT MOVE IN REVERSE AS MY DAUGHTER (THE PRIMARY DRIVER) BEGAN A 4-HOUR DRIVE FROM ORLANDO TO MIAMI. IT ENGAGED AND SHE CONTINUED ON HER TRIP. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE, THE TRANSMISSION DISENGAGED WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. SHE WAS ABLE TO COAST THROUGH TRAFFIC TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. SHE TURNED OFF THE CAR AND IT STARTED AND MOVED AGAIN. IT WAS NIGHTTIME AND NOT SAFE FOR HER TO REMAIN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE TRANSMISSION CONTINUED TO STOP SEVERAL TIMES DURING HER DRIVE AND SHE AGAIN PULLED OVER, STOPPED, THEN RESTARTED THE CAR. SHE MADE IT SAFELY TO MIAMI. THE NEXT MORNING, DEC. 6, THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. ON DEC 10 THE CAR WAS TOWED BY AAA TO A NEARBY AUTO MECHANIC. ON DEC. 11 THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE WAS DIAGNOSED AND I WAS ADVISED TO TAKE THE CAR TO A NISSAN DEALER BECAUSE OF THE NUMEROUS REPORTED PROBLEMS WITH THE CVT TRANSMISSIONS, INCLUDING AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON MODELS UP TO YEAR 2010. ON DEC. 11 IT WAS TOWED TO NISSAN AND WE ESTABLISHED A CASE WITH NISSAN CUSTOMER CARE. TODAY, DEC. 19 WE WERE INFORMED THAT NISSAN WILL NOT COVER ANY OF THE COST OF REPAIR. THE REPAIR ESTIMATE IS AT LEAST $3,700. THEY WILL REPLACE WITH THE SAME TRANSMISSION, SO WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY IN THE FUTURE. WE STILL OWE ~$8,000 ON THE VEHICLE AND FEEL WE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE REPAIR.

I SPOKE TO A GIRL NAMED SUMMER WHO IN A MECHANICAL TONE SAID TO ME "YOUR WARRANTY RAN OUT. THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO" NOTHING I SAID MADE ANY DIFFERENCE TO HER. SHE EVEN CONTACTED THE NISSAN DEALER HOWEVER SHE STILL DID NOT BUDGE AFTER HE TOLD HER ABOUT MY CASE. THIS IS A POOR REPRESENTATION OF NISSAN. THEY DON'T STAND BY THEIR PRODUCT. I WAS VERY UPSET. I'M A SINGLE MOTHER AND I HAVE TO BORROW $4000 AGAINST MY RETIREMENT ACCOUNT JUST TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR. I FEEL THAT NISSAN SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR PRODUCT AND PAY FOR THEIR FAULTY TRANSMISSION.

COMPLAINT: MISLEADING SERVICE INTERVAL LETTER PROMISES CVT FLUID INSPECTION - BUT THIS ISN'T DONE AND CAN'T BE DONE ON ALTIMA'S SEALED TRANSMISSION. IN OCTOBER 2017, NISSAN MAILED A GLOSSY LETTER REMINDING ME THAT MY ' 2013 ALTIMA IS DUE FOR ITS 48 MONTHS SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE '. ' INSPECT THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION/CVT FLUID ' IS ONE OF 23 ITEMS LISTED IN THE LETTER FOR THE 48 MONTH SERVICE INTERVAL. THE ALTIMA WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN OF RICHMOND FOR ITS 48 MONTHS MAINTENANCE ON NOV 9, 2017. THE NEXT DAY, THE GAS PEDAL STOPPED WORKING, AND THE SHEEHY NISSAN GLEN BURNIE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS TOWED DETERMINED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED BASED ON DIAGNOSTIC CODES P2813, P0776, AND P0965. THE VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT NEW WITH ONLY 39,848 MILES AT TIME OF BREAK DOWN. IN A FOLLOW UP PHONE CALL TO NISSAN OF RICHMOND ON NOV 20TH ' I WAS EDUCATED ON WHAT ' INSPECT THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION/CVT FLUID ' MEANS: PER THE SERVICE ADVISOR ' CVT FLUID ISN'T ADDED OR CHECKED AT 48 MONTHS. BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION IN THE 2013 ALTIMA IS SEALED, 'INSPECT' SIMPLY MEANS LOOKING UNDER THE CAR TO MAKE SURE CVT FLUID IS NOT LEAKING. NO SERVICE IS DONE ON THE CVT FLUID OTHERWISE ' UNTIL 60,000 MILES. WHICH COINCIDENTALLY ' IS WHEN NISSAN'S POWERTRAIN WARRANTY ENDS FOR 2013 ALTIMAS. PARTICULARLY FRUSTRATING IS THAT PER THE SERVICE ADVISOR ' ANY CVT FLUID LEAK WOULD BE REPORTED ON THE MULTIPOINT INSPECTION REPORT CARD -- BUT THEIR COMPUTER FAILED TO ATTACH IT TO THE REPAIR ORDER IN NISSAN OF RICHMOND'S SYSTEM -- SO NO RECORD OF A REPORT CARD EXISTS IN THEIR SYSTEM. CIRCLING BACK TO THE DIAGNOSTIC CODES ' ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS CAUSES FOR THE P2813 CODE MAY INCLUDE CONTAMINATED TRANSMISSION FLUID; CAUSES FOR THE P0776 CODE MAY INCLUDE LOW TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL AND/OR DIRTY TRANSMISSION FLUID. CAUSES FOR THE P0965 CODE MAY INCLUDE LOW OR SUBPAR TRANSMISSION FLUID.

20V315000 · Latches/locks/linkages:hood:latch

May 28, 2020

Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2013-2018 Nissan Altima vehicles. If the primary hood latch is inadvertently released, there is an increased likelihood that the secondary hood latch may corrode over time.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: Corrosion to the secondary latch may cause it to bind and remain in the unlatched position when the hood is closed. If the primary latch is inadvertently released again and the secondary latch is not engaged, the hood could unexpectedly open while driving, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will install a stronger release spring in the hood release lever, a warning label near the secondary hood latch, and an Owner’s Manual addendum card with instructions on how to lubricate and maintain the secondary hood latch mechanism, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 30, 2021. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669. Note: Recall 16V-029 remains open for any unremedied 2013-2015 Altimas and this recall applies to all vehicles covered by 16V-029 even if those repairs have already been performed.

An incorrect Occupant Classification System (OCS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU) may have been installed in the front passenger seat. The incorrect ECU and seat combination may misclassify the front passenger seat occupant.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: 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.

Remedy: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ECU and update the OCS software free of charge. The recall began February 13, 2017. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury.

Remedy: Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors. Dealers will reprogram the Air Bag Control Unit (ACU) and OCS Electronic Control Unit (ECU) in Altima, Maxima, Murano, Rogue, and Sentra vehicles, and replace the OCS ECU in LEAF, NV200, NV200 Taxi, Pathfinder, Infiniti Q50, JX35, and QX60 and Chevrolet City Express vehicles, free of charge. Interim notices were sent to owners on May 31, 2016. Owners will receive a second notice when remedy parts become available. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-867-7669, Infiniti customer service at 1-888-833-3216 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020.

Remedy: These vehicles were previously included in recalls 14V-565 and 15V-116, however the previous remedy plan may not have been performed consistently to remove the safety risk. To correct this issue, Nissan will re-notify all affected owners and dealers will replace the hood latch with a new one, free of charge. The recall began on February 17, 2016. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261. Note: This recall supersedes recalls 14V-565 and 15V-116.

EA21002 · Desiccated Air Bag Inflator Rupture

Opened Sep 17, 2021 · No close date supplied

Status: open (inferred from source dates) · Air Bags:frontal:driver Side:inflator Module; Air Bags:frontal:passenger Side:inflator Module

From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.pdf.Consequently, all frontal inflators using propellant 2004 that do not contain a "desiccant" (a substance that traps and holds moisture) in US vehicles are under recall. These "non-desiccated" inflators either have been or are required to be replaced.In some cases, the remedy part for these recalled inflators was, or will be, an inflator using either propellant 2004 or 2004L that does contain a desiccant. None of these "desiccated" remedy parts (which were installed in older model year vehicles) are currently under recall for a degradation concern. Certain subsets of desiccated PSAN inflators using propellant 2004 for use as original equipment, however, have been recalled for a degradation concern. All Takata inflators produced with propellant 2004L contain desiccant, and none of these desiccated inflators using propellant 2004L are under recall for a degradation concern. There have been no reported field ruptures in any non-recalled desiccated PSAN inflators.It is understood that desiccants fully saturate at some threshold, at which point any additional moisture will not be captured. This means the degradation process observed in non-desiccated inflators using propellant 2004 may also occur in non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004, assuming additional moisture enters the inflator and high temperature cycling occurs. Based on available information, desiccant saturation can occur within the first five years in the worst environments, and the time required for full saturation is affected by multiple factors. While no present safety risk has been identified, further work is needed to evaluate the future risk of non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004.Three entities -- Takata (now known as TK Global), the Independent Testing Coalition, and Exponent -- have been studying the long-term behavior of Takata desiccated PSAN inflators using propellant 2004L (as well as 2004) in the presence of moisture and temperature cycling. The research efforts, which include development of predictive modeling techniques and field sample analysis, are ongoing. To date, none of the researchers have identified field evidence showing that propellant 2004L is undergoing a degradation process that leads to aggressive deployment and potential rupture. However, the time in service of such inflators remains short compared to that of the inflators using propellant 2004. Further study is needed to assess the long-term safety of desiccated inflators using propellant 2004L.The Office of Defects Investigation is opening this investigation to examine whether a safety defect related to propellant degradation exists in non-recalled desiccated PSAN frontal inflators manufactured by Takata. This investigation will require extensive information on Takata production processes and surveys of inflators in the field. Lists of recall actions that may have used desiccated PSAN inflators as remedy parts, as well as the makes and models originally manufactured with them, is available with the downloadable version of this document (see nhtsa.gov/recalls?nhtsaId=EA21002 -- note this information is subject to change/revision as the investigation proceeds). This investigation does not supersede EA15-001, which remains open.

EA19002 · Rear Suspension Control Arm Failure

Opened Jul 29, 2019 · Closed Jun 16, 2025

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Suspension:rear

On July 29, 2019, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened EA19002 to investigate instances of alleged rear lower control arm failures in 2013-2018 Nissan Altima and 2016-2018 Nissan Maxima vehicles. At the time the investigation was opened ODI had 91 consumer complaints alleging rear lower control arm failures in the subject vehicles.ODI was concerned about these complaints because many of them alleged an increased steering effort or loss of vehicle control.At the time these complaints were received, ODI was also aware of a proactive service campaign addressing 2013 Nissan Altima in salt-belt states for a similar concern. Since opening the investigation, ODI has confirmed, based on consumer complaints, warranty data, and testing conducted by Nissan and ODI, that owners of the subject vehicles are experiencing a corroded bushing at one of three mounting points of the control arm to the rear subframe.ODI has also confirmed that drivers become aware of the problem because of sound and abnormal vibrations. In addition, the failure mileage is typically over 113,000 miles at the time of failure.In conjunction with Nissan and VRTC, ODI participated in testing to assess the potential safety consequence of a bushing failure.It was found the Vehicle Dynamic Control system allows the driver to maintain vehicle control in the event of a bushing failure.With between 7 to 13 years of field exposure, ODI is aware of only one low speed crash allegation describing minor contact with another vehicle’s trailer hitch. Nissan acknowledges that a crack can develop in affected control arms due to stress loading from normal use and that salts commonly used for roadway snow and ice treatment may result in corrosion that exacerbates the progression of the crack.Nissan implemented a design change in January of 2018 to improve the durability of the lower control arm.Affected vehicles have either been repaired with the countermeasure part under a customer satisfaction campaign or been provided a warranty extension from 3 years/36,000 miles to 10 year/unlimited mileage. Through testing and analysis of the information obtained to date, ODI has not identified a defect representing an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety involving corrosion of the subject rear lower control arm at this time.With a declining trend of reports and Nissan’s actions to implement a countermeasure and extended warranty coverage, further investigation of the issue does not appear to be warranted at this time.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist. The Agency reserves the right to take additional action if warranted by future circumstances. To review the ODI reports cited in the Closing Resume ODI Report Identification Number document, go to NHTSA.gov. A detailed discussion of the investigation and related complaint numbers can be viewed in the attached closing report.

PE18013 · Rear Suspension Control Arm Failure

Opened Dec 1, 2018 · Closed Aug 21, 2019

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Suspension:rear

PE18-013 was opened on December 1, 2018, with 4 complaints to ODI alleging incidents of the lower control arm fracturing at a connection point to the vehicle chassis due to corrosion. ODI has received an additional 87 complaints since the PE was opened. During PE18-013, Nissan indicated model years 2013-2018 shared a common rear lower control arm design. Nissan provided complaint and warranty data regarding 48 incidents of the subject failure. The majority of the complaints are from vehicles registered in salt belt states. There have been no crashes, injuries, or fatalities confirmed as of this date. Nissan advised that it has conducted testing to assess safety risk. Nissan states that due to low incident rate, high detectability, and low risk of adverse vehicle dynamics, it does not believe the subject lower control arm failure poses an unreasonable risk to motor vehicle safety.This preliminary evaluation has been upgraded to Engineering Analysis (EA) 19-002. During the EA, ODI will continue to collect and analyze complaint and field data in its efforts to fully assess the scope and frequency of the alleged defect. More importantly, ODI will also seek additional information and data regarding the potential safety consequences of rear lower control arm failure, both from evidence collected from field failures and through more rigorous and comprehensive vehicle testing to be conducted by either Nissan and/or NHTSA.The ODI reports (VOQs) cited above can be viewed at NHTSA.gov under the following reference numbers: 11234334, 11234232, 11234189, 11233771, 11233234, 11232381, 11231589, 11230323, 11230184, 11229023, 11229003, 11228730, 11228651, 11228631, 11228625, 11223086, 11222602, 11222427, 11222303, 11221802, 11219943, 11217980, 11217542, 11217505, 11217290, 11210699, 11209647, 11208580, 11208274, 11207545, 11206310, 11205711, 11205461, 11203864, 11203005, 11195416, 11193545, 11193020, 11192269, 11192066, 11191270, 11191207, 11191185, 11191042, 11190360, 11190323, 11187334, 11187157, 11186747, 11186195, 11185664, 11185632, 11185589, 11183799, 11183295, 11183198, 11182705,11182528, 11182265, 11182137, 11182088, 11181373, 11181223, 11181155, 11181009, 11180126, 11176565, 11176261, 11176135, 11175821, 11172604, 11172200, 11172065, 11170019, 11169930, 11165194, 11163833, 11163489, 11162559, 11162195, 11161956, 11161497, 11161117, 11157323, 11157234, 11156772, 11141169, 11139516, 11129476, 11122829, 11114374.

In April 2014, Nissan North America launched Safety Recall 14V-138 to address problems with the Occupant Classification System (OCS) algorithm in the following vehicles: model year (MY) 2013-2014 Nissan Altima, Pathfinder, Sentra and LEAF; MY 2013 Infiniti JX35; MY 2014 Infiniti QX60 and Q50; and MY 2013 Nissan NV 200/Taxi vehicles.According to Nissan, the OCS may misclassify adult front passenger occupants and turn off the passenger's frontal air bag for an adult occupant of sufficient weight.In March 2015, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened this Recall Query after the agency received approximately 124 complaints alleging problems with the OCS after the recall repairs and/or other OCS related repairs were made by Nissan/Infiniti dealers.The majority of the complaints alleged the passenger air bag status light stays on (i.e., indicating passenger air bag is turned off) for adult front passengers of sufficient weight.Many of the complaints stated the dealers have made multiple repairs but the problem still persists.In its June 2015 response to ODI's information request under the Recall Query, Nissan provided approximately 1,121 complaints and field reports on the recalled vehicles.These reports alleged OCS issues similar to the NHTSA reports described above.At this time, NHTSA has received a total of approximately 208 complaints (note: total of 1,271 reports shown in the table above eliminates 58 duplicative reports received by ODI and manufacturer).This Recall Query has been upgraded to an Engineering Analysis (EA15-004) to conduct a comparative assessment and further evaluate the effectiveness of the recall remedy which will include a thorough review of the countermeasures taken by Nissan and its suppliers.The ODI reports cited above can be reviewed online at http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/owners/SearchNHTSAID under the following identification numbers:10583283 10585264 10585349 10585379 10592434 10593399 10593501 10594329 10594614 10594755 10595161 10595645 10595946 10596128 10596459 10596952 10597037 10597452 10597518 10597719 10598537 10598869 10604755 10604834 10605188 10605251 10606565 10606828 10607038 10609649 10610519 10610991 10614467 10614609 10614745 10616905 10617008 10617507 10617903 10618099 10618202 10619059 10619563 10620719 10621840 10622214 10625808 10625981 10625998 10626006 10626023 10626335 10626458 10626732 10628355 10629382 10629460 10629606 10630441 10630502 10630990 10632251 10632588 10632934 10632997 10633714 10633810 10637994 10638591 10639040 10639147 10639324 10639473 10643046 10643843 10644203 10644333 10644341 10644690 10644891 10644985 10648834 10648997 10649414 10649772 10649874 10651360 10651564 10651924 10651982 10652024 10658665 10658844 10659484 10660294 10661195 10661358 10661541 10661795 10661855 10662901 10663033 10663338 10663860 10663978 10668054 10668768 10670538 10672807 10673088 10676471 10678478 10678997 10679512 10680748 10680769 10680975 10681656 10682235 10682902 10682993 10683391 10683689 10689672 10689809 10689981 10691626 10692137 10692558 10692625 10693168 10695312 10700614 10700960 10701008 10701011 10701014 10701018 10701023 10701027 10701031 10701032 10701035 10701045 10701055 10701064 10701074 10701146 10701196 10701228 10701237 10701254 10701301 10701306 10701326 10701367 10701370 10701384 10701415 10701453 10701526 10701558 10701656 10701670 10701946 10702003 10702667 10702798 10703032 10703657 10703766 10703813 10704196 10704988 10705530 10705919 10706621 10712543 10712568 10712575 10713335 10714316 10714330 10714536 10714980 10715132 10715945 10717336 10720918 10720971 10721331 10721746 10723424 10724568 10731167 10731868 10732012 10732065
