2017 Nissan Maxima

I was driving home from Durango, CO when I hear a big bang, I pulled over to see that my panoramic sunroof exploded. There no debris that flew and hit my car, it just exploded for no reason at all. We called Nissan of Durango where it was purchased as of today we have not heard back from them. This incident took place on 3/5/22 around 3:14 pm. There was no oncoming car, there was a vehicle in the right lane, three land highway. I was going the speed limit of 65 at the time of explosion. It was snowing slightly, but not sticking to the highway. our claim number is 22-7318190 with Progressive Insurance.

From a complete stop and in stop and go highway traffic, the car failed to accelerate. The gas pedal was pressed as far as possible but the car would not accelerate. This is dangerous because the issue occurs without any warning and I could have been hit by oncoming traffic. I had the car checked at a Nissan dealership, they kept the car for abour 6 days, they could not replicate the issue and the car did not give a code, so there were no repairs. The issue occured again 5 days later while trying to make a left turn from a traffic light. The car barely acclerated to 9mph. Since the car does not give an error code, the dealership said they could not make any repairs. This issue was also reported to Nissan Consumer Product customer service, who referred me back to the dealership. So no resolutions for this issue.

I PURCHASED NEW VEHICLE MARCH 10TH THE TIRE PRESSURE CAME ON SOON AS I PURCHASED I TOOK THE CAR BACK IT TO BIG O DODGE GET CHECKED OUT BUT THEY TOLD ME THEY DID NOT KNOW AND TO TAKE IT BY THE NISSAN DEALER. I WENT TO THE NISSAN SERVICE AND ALL FOUR TIRE SENSORS WERE BAD AND NEEDED TO BE FIXED THE DEALER (BIG O DODGE)WOULD NOT HELP. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT BELIEVE ME OR THE NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE FRONT GRILLE AREA OF MY CAR HAD SMALL DAMAGE THAT THEY WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT AS WELL.

PURCHASED 2017 NISSAN MAXIMA AT PASSPORT OF MARLOW HEIGHTS ON 3/17/20. TOOK CAR TO FIRST SERVICE AT PASSPORT ON 6/22/20 FOR OIL CHANGE & TIRE ROTATION. AFTER FURTHER ISSUES WITH MY FRONT LEFT WHEEL AND GOING TO SHEEHY OF WALDORF FOR MY SECOND SERVICE I DISCOVERED THAT PASSPORT OF MARLOW HEIGHTS SERVICE ADVISOR DID NOT NOTIFY ME OF "THE LEFT WHEEL STUD ISSUE" WHILE PURCHASING THE CAR AND UNTIL A WEEK AFTER MY INITIAL SERVICE VISIT OF 6/22/20. THE SERVICE ADVISOR AT PASSPORT REPORTED A INCORRECT SERVICE DATE OF 6/25/20 TO COVER UP THE LATE MULTI-POINT "LUG NUT" NOTIFICATION. ON 1/8/2021 2ND SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE AT SHEEHY OF WALDORF, I REQUESTED OIL CHANGE, TIRE ROTATE, 4-WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCE. SHEEHY FOUND: LUG NUTS WERE CROSSED THREADED WHICH CAUSED STUDS TO BE MESSED UP AS WELL. SHEEHY "REPLACED 2 LUG NUTS AND 2 STUDS ON DRIVER FRONT TIRE." FOR AN ADDED AMOUNT OF $251.53. I LEFT SHEEHY OF WALDORF AFTER MY SERVICE AND AS I ACCELERATED, I FELT STRONG VIBRATION AT EACH INTERVAL, I RETURNED TO SHEEHY AND ASKED FOR SOMEONE TO RIDE WITH ME. A SHOP FOREMAN DROVE MY CAR AND HE FELT THE VIBRATION AT EACH INTERVAL. THE FOREMAN TOOK VEHICLE BACK IN GARAGE AND INSPECTED WHEELS "& FOUND THAT THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL HAS BEEN WELDED & THE WELD HAS SPLIT & CRACKED. THE OTHER 3 WHEELS HAVE BENDS IN THE WHEEL & OUT OF ROUND" VIDEO & PHOTO PROVIDED BY SHEEHY. SHEEHY ALSO INFORMED THAT AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON: TOOK CAR BACK TO PASSPORT TO RE-INSPECT WHEELS/RIM/AIR BAG ISSUES THEY CREATED AND AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND: AIR BAG RECALL: REPORT RECEIPT DATE: APR 26, 2016 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V244000 COMPONENT(S): AIR BAGS - AIR BAGS: SENSOR: OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION. NOW - PASSPORT IS STATING THAT MY AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON BECAUSE "RODENTS HAVE CHEWED THRU MY WIRES IN MY ENGINE HARNESS. BASED ON MY RESEARCH PASSPORT KNEW ABOUT THIS ISSUE, DEALER DIDN'T DISCLOSE ACCIDENT.

FOR A FEW MONTHS, WHENEVER I DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY, TYPICALLY FOR MORE THAN 30 MIN, THE SENSOR WITH THE TWO CARS COLLIDING TURNS ON WITH A BEEP SOUND. IT TURNS OFF AFTER I TURN OFF THE CAR BUT WILL TURN ON AFTER DRIVING FOR MORE ON THE FREEWAY. I'VE BEEN DRIVING WITH TURNS OR HILLS AND COULD BE A PART OF IT BUT I'M NOT SURE. AFTER 3 YEARS OF HAVING THE CAR, IT STARTED DOING THAT. THE ABS WAS ALREADY CHANGED AS PART OF A RECALL AND I DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. I SEE THAT ANOTHER PERSON HAS REPORTED THIS ISSUE AT THE FOLLOWING LINK. I TALKED TO MY DEALER AND THEY DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND A SCANNER DOESN'T PICK UP A CODE SINCE THE CAR HAS TO BE OFF AND THE LIGHT TURNS OFF WHENEVER I TURN OFF THE CAR. I DON'T KNOW WHERE EXACTLY THE ISSUE COULD BE, SENSOR, IF SO WHICH SENSOR, OR A PART. HTTP://WWW.ARFC.ORG/COMPLAINTS/2017/NISSAN/MAXIMA/11202864.ASPX

I WAS DRIVING THIS MORNING ON THE WAY TO WORK TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AROUND 5:43 AM; AND I HEARD A LOUD BANG SOUNDING LIKE A SHOTGUN. IT SCARED ME TO DEATH AS I SWERVED AND HEARD WIND NOISE AS IF MY WINDOWS WERE DOWN. AND ALSO COULD HEAR GLASS FALLING ONTO MY SUNROOF SHADE. I FOUND A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER AND SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND WHOA AND BEHOLD MY SUNROOF HAS SHATTERED. IF THE SHADE WAS OPEN THEN THE SHATTERED GLASS COULD HAVE FALEN ON ME POSSIBLY GETTING INTO MY EYES AND CAUSING AN ACCIDENT.

WHAT CAUSES MY 2017 MAXIMA'S BLIND SPOT WARNING SYSTEM TO RANDOMLY TURN OFF THEN BACK ON HOURS LATER? COULD FAULTY RADARS IN NISSAN'S EMERGENCY BRAKING KILL PEOPLE? THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AS YOU RELY ON THESE SENSOR WHEN DRIVING AND THIS CAN CAUSE FATAL ACCIDENTS. WHEN THIS BSW SYSTEM FAILED, I DID CYCLE THE BLIND SPOT OFF THEN BACK ON AGAIN TO NO AVAIL. I DID EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEMS WITHIN THE 1ST YEAR BUT I CHALKED UP TO MY NEWNESS TO THE CAR AND BRAND. WHAT IS NISSAN WILLING TO DO RESOLVE THIS UNSAFE SITUATION? TONY IN OHIO, USA

I PURCHASE THE MAXIMA CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED ON JUNE 2017. IN SEPTEMBER 2018, I NEEDED TO HAVE THE DISTANCE SENSOR ARRAY REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. IN JULY 2019, I NEEDED TO HAVE THE SAME DISTANCE SENSOR ARRAY REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. WHY DOES THIS KEEP FAILING? THIS SENSOR CONTROLS THE EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM AND THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL. THE CAR WILL NOT OPERATE AS ADVERTISED IF THIS SENSOR IS NOT WORKING. SOON MY WARRANTY WILL EXPIRE AND I WILL NEED TO REPLACE THIS EVERY YEAR?

THIS ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT, HAS BEEN CHECKED SEVERAL TIMES BY MY DEALER AND DOES NOT SHOW UP IN ANY ERRORS. THE CAR WILL STALL AT RANDOM TIMES. IT STARTED OUT MOSTLY WHEN I STOPPED ACCELERATING, EITHER WHEN STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR TURNING A CORNER. OCCASIONALLY WILL STALL WHILE DRIVING. USUALLY IT IS VERY BRIEF BUT OCCASIONALLY TAKES A FEW SECONDS TO RE ENGAGE. ONLY ONCE ON THE FREEWAY BUT PRIMARILY ON CITY STREETS. I AM REPORTING THIS TODAY BUT IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY SAVE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE SINCE MAY 2018.
