2004 Nissan Armada

2004 NISSAN ARMADA SE 4WD VEHICLE JUST STALLS WHILE DRIVING NO WARNING LIGHT SO INDICATION SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH CAR, STALL IN A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION WHILE DRIVING , LOSS OF STEERING BRAKES ETC. DASH LIGHTS BLINK AND LIGHT UP. CAR RESTARTS IF YOU CRANK IT A FEW TIMES , BUT THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL MORE OCCASIONS , TOOK TO A DEALERSHIP AND NO LIGHT INDICATORS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM , THIS IS VERY UNSAFE FOR MY FAMILY AND I TO BE IN THIS ARMADA. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH IN THE NIGHT TIME, SUDDENLY DASH BOARD LIGHTS FLASHES VERY RAPIDLY AND STALLS THE ENGINE. LUCKILY, NO OTHER CAR WAS NEXT TO US. WE SAFELY STOPPED THE OUR 2004 NISSAN ARMADA SUV ON THE SIDE OF ROAD. AFTER ABOUT 10~15 MINUTES, WE TRIED TO RE-START THE CAR, BUT NO LUCK. AFTER GIVING GAS PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES, WE COULD RE-START THE CAR. WE DROVE HOME (ABOUT 5 MILES IN DISTANCE) SAFELY. NEXT DAY, WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING TO HER PARENTS' HOUSE, ONCE AGAIN, WITH RAPID FLASHING ON THE DASH BOARD, THE ENGINE DIES WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING. WE TOOK TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP NEXT MORNING, THEY SAID IT WOULD BEEN NO GAS IN THE GAS TANK. WE HAD MORE THAN 1/4 TANKFUL OF GAS. WHILE THE SERVICE MAN WAS DRIVING INTO THE SERVICE BAY, THE CAR STALLS IN SAME MANNER. THEN, THEY SAID IT WAS THE ELECTRICAL PART PROBLEM IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE. BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUE, WE HAVE LET NISSAN DEALER REPLACED THE ELECTRICAL PART. LETS' SEE WHETHER IT FIXED THE PROBLEM. *TR

ANTENNA FOR RADIO BROKEN LOCATED IN THE TWO REAR WINDOWS(PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE ), WINDOWS ARE DESIGNED TO OPEN AND CLOSE. WHEN VEHICLE REACHES SPEED OF FORTY MILES AN HOUR OR GREATER WINDOWS WILL RATTLE . NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY NOR UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE COST FOR REPAIR FOR ANTENNA IS IN THE RANGE OF 800.00 TO 1000.00. I FEEL THAT THIS IS AN ENGINEERING DESIGN FLAW, AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED AT NISSANS EXPENSE. NOT AT THE CONSUMERS EXPENSE! REPAIRS NEEDED REPLACEMENT OF PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE GLASS AND REWIRE. REMOVAL OF HEAD LINER( WIRES ARE LOCATED UNDER HEAD LINER). *JB

IN NOVEMBER 2004 I PURCHASED THE ARMADA 2004. I DROVE IT TO FLORIDA IN DECEMBER 2004 AND LEFT IT IN MY HOUSE. I LEFT WITH THE MILITARY UNTIL JUNE 2005, I DROVE THE VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL JULY 2005, IN WHICH, ONE MORNING I TRY TO TURN IT ON, THE VEHICLE DID NOT START AND IT SOUNDED LIKE THE BATTERY OR STARTER WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE BATTERY GAGE WENT FROM HALF WAY TO THE NEGATIVE SIDE AND THEN BACK TO THE MIDDLE AND ONCE AGAIN TO THE NEGATIVE SIDE AGAIN. THE CONTROL SYSTEMS ARE STILL SHOWING NEGATIVE INFORMATION OF BEING OFF OR ON. I HAVE NOT TAKEN IT IN FOR A CHECK UP DUE TO I PURCHASE THE VEHICLE IN NY AND I AM IN FL. I HAVE TO CHECK WITH THE NY DEALER IF I COULD TAKE IT ANY NISSAN DEALERSHIPS IN FL. I WILL REPORT BACK ON ANY INFORMATION FROM THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. IF ANY ONE HAS HAD SIMILAR PROBLEM POST IT THANK YOU. *NM

I PURCHASED A NISSAN ARMADA IN APRIL 2004 AND TWO MONTHS LATER HAD TO BRING IT TO DEALER FOR REPAIR AS THE BRAKES WERE SHUDDERING CAUSING TREMENDOUS SHIMMY IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE DEALERSHIP, NISSAN THOUSAND OAKS, DID NOT REPLACE THE "WARPED ROTORS", INSTEAD "SWITCHING" THEM AROUND AND REPLACING THE BRAKE PADS. THE ADDITIONAL PROBLEM OF A RATTLE AND SQUEAKING SOUND FROM DASHBOARD RESULTED IN THE DEALERSHIP REALIGNING THE DASHBOARD PROPERLY. TWO MONTHS LATER I WAS BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX THE BRAKES AGAIN. THIS TIME I DEMANDED THAT THE INFERIOR ROTORS BE REPLACED WITH HIGHER-QUALITY ROTORS. THEY REPLACED THE FACTORY-INSTALLED ROTORS WITH NEW ROTORS (TOLD BETTER QUALITY ROTORS) AND THEY ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE BRAKE PADS AGAIN. ADDITIONALLY, THERE I WAS EXPERIENCING AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH THE A/C; IT WOULD SOMETIMES RUN VERY HOT AIR. THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND FOUND THAT THE CLUTCH FAN NEEDED TO BE REPLACED; THIS PART IS ON ORDER AND I WILL HAVE TO RETURN FOR INSTALLATION. ALSO, I ASKED THEM TO ONCE AGAIN FIX A SQUEAKING AND RATTLING ISSUE THAT SEEMED TO BE COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD AGAIN AND ALSO INTERMITTENT FAILURE OF THE STEREO CONTROLS LOCATED ON THE STEERING WHEEL. ACCORDING TO THEIR MECHANICS, THE SOUND PROBLEM AND STEREO CONTROLS PROBLEM DID NOT OCCUR WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS IN THEIR POSSESSION. A WEEK LATER, AUGUST 12, 2004, I HAD TO RETURN TO HAVE THE CLUTCH FAN REPLACED AND THIS TIME I ALSO REQUESTED THAT ONE OF THEIR MECHANICS DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH ME SO THAT I COULD POINT OUT THE SQUEAKING ISSUE. THE MECHANIC HEARD THE SOUND PROBLEM THIS TIME AND I AM TOLD THEY WILL TRY TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I HAVE NOT HAD A PROBLEM AGAIN, AS YET WITH THE STEREO CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL.
