Nissan Altima electrical problems

MY COMPLAINT IS FOR OIL LEAK AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PROBLEM. 1 YEAR AFTER PURCHASING MY 2007 NISSAN ALTIMA, I TOOK IT FOR OIL CHANGE WERE THEY STATED WE THINK THERE MIGHT BE A LEAK SOMEWHERE. 3 MONTHS LATER I TOOK THE CAR FOR ANOTHER OIL CHANGE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WAS A MAJOR OIL LEAK. THIS JUST ONE INCIDENT AND I HAVE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINT FORUM WHERE PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND SOME RESULTED IN THERE CARS CATCHING ON FIRE. THEN ON APPROXIMATELY APRIL 22, 2015 I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE AND IT RANDOMLY SHUT OFF, NONE THE CAR WOULD START, THE KEY ENTRY WOULDN'T WORK, THE RADIO WOULD COME ON AND THE HEATING/AIR UNIT WOULD WORK NOR WOULD THE TRUCK OPEN AND ACTUALLY THE TRUCK STOPPED OPENING A MONTH BEFORE THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. NISSAN REFUSES TO FIX ANY OF THESE PROBLEMS AND I REALLY FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD FIX THIS PROBLEM SINCE IT IS A MULTITUDE OF CARS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. ALSO, MY CAR HAS BEEN SITTING SINCE APRIL 22, 2015 DOWN THE STREET FROM MY HOME

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING LOCK MECHANISM FAILED AND THE DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO START THE ENGINE. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE FAILURE HAD OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO INDICATED THAT THE STEERING LOCK MECHANISM WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 133,000.

MY GAS GUAGE READ HALF, WHILE TURNING CAR RAN OUT OF GAS. POWER STEERING AND BRAKES FAILED WHEN ENGINE SHUT OFF. FORTUNATELY I WAS TURNING INTO INSIDE LANE ON 8 LANE STREET BECAUSE IT TOOK ALL 5 LINES TO SAFEL ROLL TO STOP. AFTER ASKING NISSAN 700 TO CHECK FUEL SYSTEM SENSO 4/BOLT 1 PLUG SOLID PIECE. WENT TO AAA $150 TO CHECK AND DETERMINED GUAGE NOT SENSOR. $600 TO MAYBE REPAIR PART. CALLED NISSAN 6 BOLTS 1 PLUG TO REPLACE GUAGE MODULE WITH 3RD PARTY REPAIRED USED MODULE FROM ANOTHER STATE. MODULE HAS TO BE SENT PRIOR TO 3RD PARTY SENDING PART. INTERNET HORROR STORIES. 6-60 DAY TURN AROUND AND VEHICLE CANNOT BE DRIVEN WHILE PART IS OUT OF CAR. MAIN REASON: SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER ARE PART OF MODULE. MODULE REQUIRES REPROGRAMMING TO CURRENT VEHICLE MILEAGE BEFORE MOVING. NISSAN SHOULD CARRY PARTS IN STOCK DUE TO BOTH DANGEROUS SAFETY AND MILEAGE ISSUES RELATED TO FAILURE OF EITHER MODULE AR FUEL SENSOR. I AM PRETTY STRONG ALTHOUGH 66 BUT YOUGER, FEMALE OR OLDER FOLKS IN SIMILAR SITUATIONS COULD END UP IN BUILDING, TREE OR ANOTHE VEHICLE. NOT KNOWING WHEN CAR IS DIE WITHOUT WARNING IS A DIRE SAFET ISSUE.. RECALLS SHOULD BE ENFORCED BY FAILURE NUMBERS, NOT %AGE OF FAILURES PER MODEL. 50% OF A MODEL THAT SOLD 200 IS NOT AS DANGEROUS AS 50% OF 100,000 SOLD. THE 2005 ALTIMA SER WAS A VERY LIMITED MODEL OF ALTIMA BUT OEM PARTS SHOULD BE AVAILABLE UNTIL AT LEAST A MAJORITY OF THEM ARE OFF THE ROAD WHEN THE RELATE TO SAFETY. NISSAN SEEMS TO GET AWAY WITH OUT RECALLS FOR SAFETY RECALLS, HIGH FREQUENCY ISSUES, SERVICE GUAGING AND FROM WHAT I HEAR KNOWN LEMON PROBLEMS. WHY????

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN ALTIMA. AFTER OPENING THE DOOR WITH THE KEY FOB, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AS THE KEY WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE ELECTRONIC STEERING COLUMN LOCK WAS DAMAGED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

ON 8/3/2015 I WENT TO THE GROCERY STORE DROVE MY CAR PERFECTLY WELL. WHEN I WAS READY TO GO HOME MY CAR WOULD NOT START. MY STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED. I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK SINCE THE DEALERSHIP WAS CLOSED. NEXT DAY I CALL NISSAN SINCE I SAW SO MANY POSTINGS ABOUT THIS ISSUE OPENED A CLAIM, AND THEY TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR TO GET A DIAGNOSIS FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND CALL THEM BACK WITH THE FINDINGS, BECAUSE I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AS OF MARCH 3,2015. I TOOK THE CAR PAYED A TOW TRUCK AGAIN THEN HAD TO PAY $130 FOR THE DIAGNOSIS ONLY TO FIND OUT THEY COULD AND WOULD DO NOTHING! I HAD TO PAY $1007. AND THEY CLAIMED I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY FOR OVER 41 MONTHS. HOW IS IT THAT THEY KNOW ITS A MALFUNTION, AND THEY GET AWAY WITH NO RECALL! I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER NISSAN VEHICLE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS AND THE ABS AND VDC WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS JUMPSTARTED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 67,000.

THE PASS. SIDE AIR BAG OFF LIGHT DO NOT ALL WAYS TURN OFF WHEN SOMEONE IS SETTING IN PASS. SEAT. NISSAN LAST YEAR HAD A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, THEY RELOADED THE OCS SOFTWARE FOR THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD 3 PROBLEM SO FAR SENSE THE RECALL. MOST OF THE TIME THERE IS NO ONE BUT ME IN THE CAR SO I DO NOT HAVE A IDEA OF HOW OFTEN IT COULD HAD FAIL IF SOMEONE WAS IN THE PASS. SEAT WITH EVERY TRIP. I HAVE ONLY TAKEN THE CAR ONCE TO THE DEALER FOR THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THE FIRST TIME I DID NOT THINK ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND AFTER CHECKING IT OUT, THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTING THEY COULD OR WOULD DO BECAUSE THEY HAD NO FAILURE AND THAT NISSAN WILL NOT LET THEM REPLACE ANY PARTS UNLESS THERE IS A FAILURE AS NISSAN WILL NOT PAY FOR THE ITEM. OPEN REF.# 19611123 WITH NISSAN AND WAS TOLD ABOUT THE SAME THIN, EXCEPT NISSAN SAID THAT IT WAS THE DEALER CALL BUT THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR NO FAILURE PART REPLACEMENT. I BELIEVE IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AND SOMEONE WITH POWER SHOULD LOOK INTO IT, DO TO THE FACT THERE HAVE ALREADY BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. NO ONE I TALK TO AT THE DEALER OR ON THE PHONE TO NISSAN WOULD OR COULD DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE INTERNET HAS MANY WRITE UP ABOUT THIS PROBLEM THAT NO ONE WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT. I GUESS THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO BE BADLY INJURED OR KILLED TO TAKE THE PROBLEM SERIOUS.
