I HAVE A NEW 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA SL V6 I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS NEW CAR. BLIND SIDE WARNING, AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STAYED ON ONE TIME. MY CAR WOULDN'T START UP SEVERAL TIMES AFTER WALKING UP TO THE CAR AND PRESSING THE BUTTON ON THE DOOR. THE KEY WOULDN'T UNLOCK THE DOORS, IT WOULDN'T AUTO START THE CAR. I HAD TO WAIT TO GET IN MY CAR, I ACTUALLY HAD TO STICK MY KEY IN THE DOOR TO GET IN THE CAR. WHEN I DID FINALLY GET IN THE CAR AND TRY TO START IT NOTHING HAPPENED, IT SAID NO KEY THIS IS DANGEROUS I AM A FEMALE GOD FORBIDS SOMEBODY TRIES TO RAPE OR KILL ME AND I AM NOT ABLE TO GET AWAY IN MY NEW CAR THAT I PAY ALL THIS MONEY FOR EVERY MONTH. THE DASHBOARD SAYS: KEY NOT DETECTED OR NO KEY, OR INCORRECT KEY ID. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE SHOP AND THEY STILL DOESN'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG. I'VE RECENTLY WENT TO A DIFFERENT DEALER HOPING THEY CAN WORK ON MY CAR AND GET ME THE RESULTS I'M LOOKING FOR... I COMPLETELY HATE THIS CAR BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN N THE SHOP MORE TIMES THAN MY LAST CAR. ALL THEY KEPT SAYING WAS MORE COMPUTER PROBLEMS. I GOT MY CAR 12/2012 AND MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP OVER 20 TIMES WITH LOTS OF ISSUES. I'M STILL WITHIN MY 36000 WARRANTY. I ALSO HEAR A CLICKING NOISE IN THE FRONT TIRE. DEALERSHIP REPLACED SOME BOLTS AND GREASED IT AS WELL. THEY SAID IT NEEDED GREASE.. THE NOISE HAS CAME BACK ABOUT 2 WEEKS LATER!! ITS TIME CONSUMING TO KEEP GOING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET REPAIRS!! BUT I HAVE TO DO IT. I HAD THE RECALL FOR AIR BAGS BUT IT STILL DIDN'T REGISTER AN ADULT WHO SAT IN THE FRONT SEAT WHO WEIGHED ABOUT 103 LBS. SO HIS AIR BAG WOULDN'T DEPLOY IF WE GOT IN AN ACCIDENT. THAT ISN'T SAFE AT ALL.. PLS FIX AND CHANGE THAT FEATURE FOR THE SAKE OF SMALLER ADULTS. NISSAN SHOULDN'T RESTRICT THE WEIGHT OF A FRONT SEAT PASSENGER.. ALL THESE PROBLEMS.... I WILL BE OPENING UP A LEMON LAW CASE!! THIS IS RIDICULOUS!!!! *TR

AS I GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE (DRIVING 60 MPH) THEN REDUCED MY SPEED TO 20 WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE IT WOULDN'T GO!! IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND MY RPM WOULD CLIMB UP TO 4 OR 5! I HAD TO DRIVE ALL THE WAY BACK HOME ON INTERSTATE DRIVING 20 MPG!!! IT'S HAPPENED ONLY WHEN I TRAVEL LONG DISTANCES!! I AM HIGHLY DISSATISFIED WITH THE ALTIMA! EVERYONE I ENCOUNTERED ABOUT THE 2006-2008 ALTIMA REGRETS GETTING ONE. *TR

I HAVE READ NUMEROUS ACCOUNTS OF THE NISSAN ALTIMA BEING UNABLE TO START WHEN THE REQUIRED BRAKE/START BUTTON IS USED. I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED AND THE START BUTTON PUSHED, THE ACC LIGHT COMES ON THEN, IF PUSHED AGAIN, THE ON LIGHT COMES ON (OVER THE START BUTTON). THEN WHEN PUSHED AGAIN, THE SYSTEM SHUTS OFF. BY TRYING SEVERAL TIMES AND PUMPING THE BRAKE, THE CAR WILL EVENTUALLY START. SINCE THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED NUMEROUS TIMES, THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN THE CAR'S PARTS/SYSTEM. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL TO HAVE NISSAN REPLACE THE FAULTY PARTS FREE OF CHARGE. *TR

VEHICLE DIED WHILE COASTING DOWN THE SIDE STREET. ONCE I STOPPED THE VEHICLE I PUT IT IN PARK AND TURNED THE KEY TO OFF. WHEN TRYING TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE WOULD CRACK, BUT WOULD NOT START. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN LISTED FOR A RECALL FOR THE 2.5 ENGINE BUT NOT FOR MY 3.5 ENGINE, AND NISSAN WILL NOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP THE SITUATION. *TR

VEHICLE DID NOT START. VEHICLE WAS SUCCESSFULLY JUMPED, DRIVEN FOR ONE (1) HOUR, THEN TURNED OFF, AND THEN FAILED TO START AGAIN. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO MECHANIC. MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO BE A FAULTY BRAKE PEDAL IGNITION SWITCH, WHICH IS IDENTICAL TO NISSAN SERVICE BULLETIN # NTB10-139. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PINE BELT NISSAN, 111 HIGHWAY 36, KEYPORT, NJ, 07735-1424, WHO FIXED THE CAR AND RECOMMENDED I CONTACT NISSAN CORPORATE FOR ANY REIMBURSEMENT. CORPORATE NISSAN, UNDER CONFIRMATION NUMBER 315521 (SPOKE TO RAVEN), STATED THAT "THEY ARE NOT IN A POSITION TO PAY FOR THE PARTS", EVEN AFTER I TOLD THEM THAT I WOULD PAY THE LABOR. NISSAN KNOWINGLY HAS PUT OUT A DEFECTIVE BRAKE IGNITION SWITCH THAT COULD CAUSE THE CAR TO FAIL (NOT START) AT ANY TIME, AND WILL NOT WORK WITH THE CUSTOMER FINANCIALLY TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PART WITH A GOOD ONE. THE VEHICLE WAS BEYOND ITS WARRANTY TIME/MILEAGE.
