This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
My Altima was purchased in January, 2002 with about 67,000 miles on it, and it is a 1995 model. I have had to take it in more than seven times and have paid at least $2,000. My main complaint is that I have had to go in three times to repair my gear shift. It repeatedly locks into the park position and in order to turn the car on, you have to put it in neutral then start it. Whenever that has happened, my brake light stops working also. I do not know how I get from place to place safely when my brake lights go out. I am not able to drive around without brake lights, therefore, I lose money because my work requires that I travel by car on a daily basis. The mechanics keep repairing the same electrical fuses, which must be faulty because whenever they are replaced, the gear shift works and the brake lights work. Less than six months later, I am back at the mechanic to have the same thing repaired again. My car is parked indefinitely because the brake lights are out again and I have to start the car by putting it into neutral again. I do not think I should have to pay for this problem again!!!!!!ps I do not know what oem means which is why I have a yes and a no answer....
Vehicle jumped into drive and accelerated suddenly and unexpectedly, causing a colli sion which resulted in minor injuries. Air bags did not deploy. A recall has been issued on the vehicle. However, the owner of this vehicle was not notified. Manufacturer has been notified.
Consumer was parked when noticed that the gear shift will not move from park. Dealer notified, and will not repair unless cost is picked up by the consumer.
