The seal on the oil cooler of my vehicle has failed and Nissan won't repair it. I have researched this and I have found that this problem is common on my vehicle. Here is a link to an example of what I am talking about -- Nissan told me they would have to have a mechanic at one of their dealerships at a cost to me look at it. I have had a mechanic I trust, who looked it at no charge and who only works on Nissan, diagnose it as a problem with the engine oil cooler seal. The problem has been going on for awhile and I have explored options to repair it and have failed discussions with Nissan a few times because I refuse to pay a Nissan dealership mechanic to look at the vehicle when a mechanic I trust has already done so. The date I put in for when it happened is only an estimate, but my car has had this problem for at least a year. I just thought of contacting the NHTSA about it after researching this online. This has caused oil to leak out from the oil cooler according to the mechanic who looked at it and that happens all the time, but it hasn't been severe to the point where I have to constantly put oil in the car.

I have a automatic 2012 Nissan Altima w. 130K miles. While driving, my car automatically shifted to neutral and in order for me to stop, I had to place my emergency brakes on. The gear was stuck in between neutral and reverse and unable to move. Thought it was a shifter console, but turns out it was my transmission. In this model car, there is a class action law suit against Nissan for failing cvt transmissions/engines. My failure happened while driving and could have caused a major accident. Due to the miles, I am out of warranty and I do believe that Nissan should be at fault seeing that there is a suit pending.

The vehicles engine is burning oil very rapidly and when I spoke with several mechanics to get a other opinions, and I was told it is a common problem with this vehicle. The dashboard is also very sticky and is melting was told that that happens to the vehicles as well.

One 2 separate occasions my vehicle has completely shut down without warning. The first time was while I was sitting a red, the second time I was actually driving through traffic and the car lost all power I without any warning. The first time it happened it took about a hour before the car would start again, luckily the second time it happened I was able to start the car within a few minutes. I have read a few stories and complaints on car gurus that other Nissan owners are having the same issues with their vehicle. I truly feel unsafe in this vehicle and this matter needs to be looked into immediately before someone gets seriously injured. It is only a matter of time.

The dash is melting creating a shiny residue covering the dash. When the sun or bright lights guys at night is shining the shiny dash reflects on the windshield creating a glare that obstructs your vision while driving or turning on any highway or road. The service dept at my local dealer took photos and sent it to Nissan about 18 months ago and I have heard nothing. It is getting so badd that while driving it has started obstructing the vision of the roadway.

I have a sticky, shiny, melted, reflective dashboard causing a problem with safely operating the vehicle because I cannot see out of the windshield due to the reflective glare. This is had a gradual onset and is gradually worsening. Nissan took responsibility for this defect in 2007-2009 models but in my case Nissan refuses to take responsibility for this defect in my car.

Codes are : BCM; transmissions fault 4; ipdm E/R fault 3. this is ridiculous, I will be taking it into fort worth Nissan on Saturday 3/17/2018 to determine if it is failing again, it being only 9,000 miles later.

Vehicle just lost all power while driving on a busy highway. No power at all, almost tail ended by another vehicle that swirled into emergency lane to avoid hitting me. Unable to use hazard lights, as there was no power to the car. Luckily I had a portable jumper and had to exit my car and stand in front of vehicle with hood up, unable to see traffic coming and very scared of getting hit because I had no hazard lights. Vehicle finally started and would barely accelerate, I was able to make it to work. I live over an hour from work and now I'm scared to drive home on the interstate. There are numerous posts about this, I found while trying to find out what happened, several others have been in near miss accidents due to the exact same reason and have reported this but Nissan is making no effort to find and fix the problem. I could have been hurt badly having this happen where it did and I am notifying whoever is necessary about this situation, because if something happens to me while driving my car and it's related to this issue that Nissan is aware of, my family will be suing along with many others I'm sure. I had no power, no steering, no control at all

The carpet is loose around the area when the car mat attached. Causing the mat to move and get stuck under the gas pedal. I have talked to couple of Altima owner and it the same. I have not seen a recall on this yet.

The wiper blades suddenly stopped working during a heavy downpour. My son was driving on the interstate at the time and attempted to get off on a side road as he had very limited visibility which resulted in a head on collision with another vehicle coming in the opposite direction on the side road.

The dashboard is completely melting and it is getting sticky and dangerous to drive. It produces a glare and it obstructs the view. The glare is stopping me from seeing the cars and objects in front of me. It is extremely dangerous.

I was driving my car down the road heading to get something to eat. It was a Sunday night, it just started misting rain. I drove on my usual curvy 2 lane paved highway and then proceed onto my usual 4 lane paved highway to mcdonald's where I got food inside and then upon leaving decided to go through drive through for another item. I left and headed approximately 3 miles back on the same road I traveled to town on. As I was on the 2 lane ithe all of a sudden appeared to be raining heavier and I could tell by the rain crossing over my headlights. Something different than normal caught my eye, it looked like orange rain, I assumed just the appearance from one of the bulbs. Unsure though, I continued driving but scooted to the edge of my seat and set up tall to getta better look, at that time I seen flames. The car was on fire, I couldn't pull off side of road as it has no ditches just ravines so I slowed down and tried unlocking my door to open it wouldn't and my window wouldn't roll down, terrified I proceeded to call 911 and inform them my car was on fire and I was in it driving down the road and was hoping to get to next road I knew I could pull off. The entire time never did anything warning lights or gauges come on nor did the temperature rise. I finally was able to exist the car fully engulfed in flames. The police department and fire department finally arrived. Theyou got it put out but it was complete loss. I have no idea as to why this fire happened I took well care of my car, maintaining it regularly as recommended and always cautiously driving it. I have another Nissan Altima that's still running strong with $300,000 miles on it, so this should show I care for my vehicles above what's recommended.
