Nissan Altima electrical problems

THE FRONT TWO WINDOWS IN MY NISSAN ALTIMA ROLL DOWN, BY THEMSELVES, EVERYTIME I TAKE MY KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION! I HAVE TRIED TAKING THE BATTERIES OUT OF BOTH OF MY KEY FOBS, THINKING MAYBE THERE IS A SHORT OR SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY KEY FOBS, BUT MY FRONT TWO WINDOWS STILL ROLL DOWN. I CALLED NISSAN TO ASK THEM ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, AND THEY SAID, THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE NOT TAKEN THE CAR TO NISSAN YET TO GET IT REPAIRED, BECAUSE HONESTLY I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY 100 DOLLARS AN HOUR TO HAVE THE CAR SIT ON THE MACHINE TO TEST IT, THEN HOW EVER MUCH IT IS TO FIX THE PROBLEM, WHICH COULD RUN INTO THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. *TR

CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. CAR ALSO DOESN'T START UP RIGHT AWAY. TRIED TO BRING IT TO NISSAN BUT THEY SAID MY VIN# WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE WELL KNOWN RECALL (CAMSHAFT SENSOR). BS IF YOU ASK ME! THEY'RE GOING TO PUT PEOPLES LIVES AT RISK. SO I WENT TO ADVANCED AUTO PARTS STORE AND GOT THE CODE READ AND IT WAS A P-03040 WHICH WAS A CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR MALFUNCTION. I GOOGLED A BIT AND FOUND OUT THERE'S PLENTY OF PEOPLE OUT THERE WITH THIS PROBLEM. I EVEN CALLED NISSAN AND THEY DIDN'T WANT TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. OUTRAGEOUS DIAGNOSTIC FEE ALSO. $105 JUST TO PLUG IN A OBD READER. YOU CAN BUY YOUR OWN OBD READER FOR THAT PRICE. OR JUST GO TO YOUR LOCAL AUTO STORE AND GET IT CHECKED FOR FREE!!! NOT HAPPY. NISSAN ALSO SOUNDED LIKE THEY DIDN'T WANT TO DEAL WITH ME SINCE I DON'T BRING MY CAR TO NISSAN FOR OIL CHANGES/REPAIRS. *TR

2005 NISSAN ALTIMA - CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. MY 2005 PRE-OWNED NISSAN ALTIMA JUST EXPERIENCED CRANK/START PROBLEMS YESTERDAY. AFTER COMPUTER DIAGNOSTICS WERE PERFORMED, THEY DISCOVERED THAT THE ECM AND THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR WERE DEFECTIVE. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT THE 2005 NISSAN MODELS HAD A RECALL ON THE ECM MODULES AND THE CRANKSHAFTS. THEY ADVISED ME TO CONTACT NISSAN TO ENSURE THIS HAD NOT BEEN PREVIOUSLY CORRECTED DURING THE ORIGINAL RECALL. I CONTACTED NISSAN TO FIND OUT THAT IT HAD NEVER BEEN CORRECTED. NISSAN REP DIVYA CHEERAN ADVISED ME THAT THE ECM AND FRAME WERE ON RECALL HOWEVER THE CRANKSHAFT WAS NOT. I INFORMED HER THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAD ALREADY INFORMED ME OF THE RECALL FOR THE CRANKSHAFT. SHE INSISTED THE DEALERSHIP WAS WRONG AND THERE WAS NO RECALL OF ANY CRANKSHAFT ON ANY NISSAN VEHICLES. I TOLD HER THAT I WAS LOOKING AT A CONSUMER AFFAIRS REPORT ON THE INTERNET AS WELL AS THE REPORT/RECALL NOTICE WITH NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC AND SAFETY ADMINISTRATION. SHE STILL REFUTED THE FACT THAT THERE HAD BEEN ANY RECALL ON THE CRANKSHAFTS FOR THE 2005 NISSAN ALTIMAS. HOWEVER, SHE ADVISED ME TO TAKE MY CAR INTO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP (SHEEHY NISSAN IN SPRINGFIELD, VA) TO HAVE THE ECM AND FRAME FIXED. SHE STATED THAT ONCE THE ECM WAS FIXED IT WOULD RESOLVE THE CRANKING AND SHUTTING OFF PROBLEMS I WAS EXPERIENCING. I ADVISED HER THAT THE MECHANIC AT THE DEALERSHIP HAD ALREADY CONFIRMED THAT WOULD NOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM WITH THE CRANKSHAFT AND I WOULD LIKE FOR NISSAN TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE RECALL AND FIX THE ECM AND CRANKSHAFT. IT WAS PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE AND RECORD THAT THERE WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS AND COULD BE POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS TO MY HEALTH AND THE HEALTH OF MY NEWBORN WHO FREQUENTLY TRAVELS WITH ME. I ADVISED HER THAT $200 TO FIX THE CRANKSHAFT SHOULD BE NOTHING TO NISSAN AS OPPOSED TO ME FILING A LAWSUIT WITH THEM IF ANY HARM CAME TO ME OR MY CHILD DUE TO THIS HAZARD. CAN YOU PLEASE ASSIST ME WITH GETTING MY CAR FIXED? *TR

2003 NISSAN ALTIMA 3.5L V6 SE - THE DOOR LOCKS KEEP LOCKING REPEATEDLY. WILL DO THIS WHILE I AM IN AND OUT OF THE CAR REGARDLESS OF KEY FOB USE. MY HAZARD LIGHTS FLASH EACH TIME. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR OVER A WEEK AND HAS INCREASED IN FREQUENCY AND DURATION. IT IS NOW CONSTANT - GOING ON EVERY 3-5 SECONDS. I HAD TROUBLE GETTING MY DAUGHTER OUT OF THE CAR BECAUSE THE DOOR KEPT LOCKING ON ME. I WORRY ABOUT THE ABILITY TO GET OUT QUICKLY IF NEEDED. IT BRINGS ATTENTION TO MY CAR THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE ON MANY LEVELS. IT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED YET. I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT MAY BE THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHEN MY CAR REACHES APPROX 60 MILES AN HOUR IT JERKS AS IF IT IS GOING TO CUT OFF. ONE TIME IT DID CUT OFF, JUST SO HAPPEN I WAS ABLE TO PULLOVER. ALSO THE CAR WILL NOT CRANK AT ALL, IT WILL STALL. WE HAVE REPLACED THESE PARTS ON THREE TIMES AND I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR GOING ON THREE YEARS. I WENT ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF OTHERS WERE HAVING THESE ISSUES AND IF YOU LOOK YOU WILL SEE THE SAME COMPLAINTS FROM COUNTLESS CONSUMERS. NO ACCIDENT HAS BEEN REPORTED AS FAR AS I KNOW BUT WHY WAIT UNTIL ONE DOES. *TR
