2009 Nissan Maxima

IN AUGUST OF 2014 I GOT IN MY CAR, 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA, STARTED IT. MEMORY IS SET FOR MY DRIVERS SEAT. SEAT SET AS NORMAL. STEERING/TILT DID NOT MOVE AS IT IS SET TO MY POSITION. DID NOT MOVE IN, OUT, UP NOR DOWN TRIED TO SET IT, DID NOT WORK MANUALLY EITHER. TOOK MY CAR TO DEALER, THEY SAID THE MOTOR HAS GONE OUT IN STEER/TILT AND IT WILL COST CLOSE TO $500.00 TO GET FIXED. *TR

TODAY I GOT STRANDED, MY 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA WOULDN'T START DUE TO MY STEERING WHEEL BEING LOCKED AND WOULDN'T UNLOCK. TRIED EVERYTHING THE MANUAL STATED AND NOTHING WORKED. NOW I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER WHERE I'M GOING TO GET CHARGED A LOT OF MONEY FOR SOMETHING THAT THE DEALER SHOULD PAY FOR. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT NISSAN IS AWARE OF THIS MALFUNCTION BUT DOES NOT PLACE A RECALL ON IT. MY CAR ISN'T EVEN PAID OFF YET AND I'M HAVING AN ISSUE WITH IT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND? I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW IN 2009 AND IS WELL MAINTAINED WITH LOW MILES. NISSAN SHOULD PUT A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM, IT CAN BE DANGEROUS. *TR

NISSAN INTELLIGENT KEY WAS NOT COMMUNICATING WITH ENGINE START FUNCTION. YELLOW KEY LIGHT WAS ON, KEY WOULD UNLOCK AND LOCK THE CAR, BUT IT WILL NOT START. SUSPECTED ISSUE FROM READING ALL OTHER NISSAN MAXIMA OWNER FORUMS IS THAT IT IS A STEERING LOCK FAILURE. HAD TOW TRUCK TAKE OUR CAR TO THE NEAREST CAR MAX NISSAN DEALER WHERE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BACK IN SEPTEMBER 2012. *TR

REACHES A NORMAL BEVERAGE CENTER IN MY NISSAN MAXIMA 2009 AND WENT OUT IN 4 HOURS WHEN NOT LIT IT WANTED TO TURN ON MY CAR, THE SCREEN SHOWED TWO INTELLIGENT KEYS WARNING LIGHTS NISSAN AND SECURITY INDICATOR, THE KEY WORKED PROPERLY, THE LIGHTS OF THE CAR TOO, THE PROBLEM IS JUST NOT TURNED ON AT ALL, I WENT TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND ARE CHARGING ME 1400 USD TO FIX MY CAR AND I SEE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM IN 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA IS VERY COMMON TO HAVE SOME GUARANTEE SHOULD THE DAMAGED PIECE, I NEED HELP WITH MY CAR. *TR

I HAVE HAD SEVERAL COMPLAINTS WITH MY 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA, FIRST I KEEP HAVING TO REPLACE THE BATTERY WHICH I RECEIVED A NEW BATTERY FROM THE DEALER IN JANUARY OF 2013 WITH AN 84 MONTH WARRANTY, WELL TODAY THE BATTERY DIED AGAIN. I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE STEERING COLUMN SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN AUGUST OF 2008. THE FIRST TIME STEERING COLUMN LOCKED AND THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALER AND WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. IT WAS REPLACED AGAIN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE BATTERY AND THEN SEVERAL MONTHS LATER STOPPED WORKING AGAIN THE UP AND DOWN FUNCTION. SECOND THE VEHICLE SUSPENSION WAS SUPPOSEDLY REPLACED DUE THE RECALL ...BUT I WAS TOLD RECENTLY BY DEALER THAT IT NEED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN AND THEY WERE TRYING TO CHARGE ME OVER $1200 FOR A RECALLED ITEM. WHICH I REFUSED TO PAY. *TR

WAS DRIVING AND STEERING WHEEL STARTED GRINDING AND MOVING. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND COST OVER $800.00 TO REPLACE TWO MOTORS STEERING WHEEL. THEY TURNED IT OFF SO IT STOPPED MOVING ON IT'S OWN. STILL MAKING GRINDING NOISE. THEY NEED TO ISSUE A RECALL AS THIS HAS HAPPENED TO HUNDREDS OF CARS AND IS CAUSING ACCIDENTS. SHAME ON NISSAN FOR JUST WANTING TO COLLECT THE MONEY, BECAUSE YOU CAN'T EVEN ORDER THE PARTS ON YOUR OWN TO HAVE SOMEONE ELSE REPAIR. *TR

THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN IS LOCKED IN THE DOWN POSITION MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER WITH THE WHEELS HITTING MY KNEES AND EXTREMELY HARD ENTERING AND EXITING THE VEHICLE. I AM UNABLE TO ADJUST THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN AT ALL. THERE IS A VERY LOUD GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE COLUMN, WHICH SEEMS TO BE THE MOTOR OR ELECTRICAL COMPONENT/ GEARS. *TR
