ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WHILE DRIVING (AT ANY SPEED), I EXPERIENCED THE ENGINE LOSS OF POWER LIKE IF THE BRAKES WERE SUDDENLY APPLIED FOR MAYBE 2 SECONDS THEN THE CAR PICKED UP SPEED AS IT WAS BEFORE. WHEN THIS HAPPENED, THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. THE CAR KEEPS EXPERIENCING LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING LIKE WANTING TO STOP RUNNING AND IT IS TAKING LONGER TO START. I'M AFRAID THE CAR WILL STOP RUNNING AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I CALLED NISSAN USA CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WERE NO SAFETY RECALLS FOR THIS CONDITION FOR MY VEHICLE, ONLY THE HEAD LAMP FIX. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE PLACE I BOUGHT IT FROM AND THE CODES ASSOCIATED WITH THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" WARNING LIGHT ON WERE P0725 -ENGINE SPEED INPUT CIRCUIT, AND P0335 - CRANK SHAFT POSITION SENSOR. THEY RESET THE CODES AND TOLD ME TO KEEP DRIVING IT OVER THE WEEKEND AND TO BRING THE CAR BACK ON WED JAN 25TH. AS I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP, IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON CAME ON. I GOT HOME AND PARKED THE CAR WAITING FOR WEDNESDAY APPOINTMENT. I THINK THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN ON THIS ALTIMA 2003 VEHICLE THAT COULD WARRANT A SAFETY RECALL. MY VEHICLE WAS BUILT IN SEPT 2002. *JB

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:ALTERNATOR/GENERATOR/REGULATOR
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE ENGINE INTERMITTENTLY OPERATED AT A REDUCED SPEED WHILE DRIVING. EACH TIME THIS HAPPENED THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. AFTERWARDS, THE ENGINE RESTARTED AND THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO PROCEED. NO WARNING INDICATORS WERE PRESENT WHEN THIS OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS SEEN BY A DEALER AND THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED. THE PROBLEM PERSISTED, AND THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO ANOTHER DEALER, WHO DETERMINED THE PROBLEM WAS THE ALTERNATOR, WHICH WAS REPLACED. THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ALTERNATOR SOLVED THE PROBLEM. *AK UPDATED 02/26/06. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
STARTING SEPTEMBER 2005, MY CAR "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT BEGAN COMING ON AND THE CAR STALLED SEVERAL TIMES AT SLOW SPEEDS. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES AND THE PROBLEM HAS STILL NOT BEEN SOLVED. THE CAR CONTINUES TO STALL AT UNPREDICTABLE TIMES AND THE DEALER AND NISSAN'S TECH PEOPLE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY A PROBLEM. *NM PHONE INTERVIEW UPDATE (FEB 1, 06): THE DEALER REPLACED THE THROTTLE SENSOR AND AIRFLOW METER UNDER "SECRET WARRANTY", BUT THE ENGINE STILL STALLS INTERMITTENTLY. THE DEALER DOES NOT WANT TO DO ANYMORE FOR ME. IN MOST CASES, THE ENGINE RESTARTS RIGHT THE WAY, SOMETIMES IT TAKES 3 OR 4 TRIES BEFORE THE ENGINE RESTARTS.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
MY 2003 NISSAN ALTIMA STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION. I HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED 85 MILES, BACK TO THE NISSAN DEALER IN DEVON, PA. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO START THE CAR, IT FINALLY STARTED, BUT WHEN I TRIED TO DRIVE IT, IT HAD NO POWER WHEN I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR. ALSO, THE CAR JUMPED ALL AROUND, SO IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE IT. I WAS AWAY ON VACATION IN NJ, SO I WASN'T EVEN NEAR MY HOME. DEALER DETERMINED IT WAS THE 'CRANK SENSOR', AND REPLACED IT, BUT CHARGED ME $180. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM! *NM

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
2003 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5 STALLED ON THE HIGHWAY. CAR HAD BEEN IDLING VERY ROUGH AND ENGINE VIBRATION AS WELL AS INTERMITTENT POWER LOSS 24 HOURS PRIOR TO ISSUE. AT TIME OF FAILURE, THE POWER STEERING AND BRAKES LOCKED UP WHILE TRAVELING AT 70 MPH ON BUSY HIGHWAY MOUNTAIN PASS. I WAS ALMOST KILLED AS CAR DRIFTED WITH NO CONTROL INTO OTHER TRAFFIC. CAR WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED. TOOK CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE MOTOR STARTED SHAKING ON DRIVE BACK TO DEALERSHIP. DEALER FOUND THAT THERE WAS A SCREW LOOSE. THEY FOUND THE SCREW MISSING HAD COME FROM THE POWER VALVE INTAKE IN THE POWER VALVE. THEY HAD TO THE REMOVE THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD TO GET THE SCREW OUT, THE DEALER HAD TO REPLACE THE MANIFOLD INTAKE/VALVE AND CYLINDER #4/ 02 SENSOR/ THE GASKET EXHAUST/GASKET ADAPTER, AND THE GASKET MANIFOLD AS THE SCREW HAD SHOT TROUGH THE ENGINE DESTROYING MOST OF IT. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT ONLY ON SOME 2004 AND 2005 MODELS, NOT MY 2003. THIS PROBLEM IS DOCUMENTED IN OTHER 2002 AND 2003 MODELS ON THIS ODI WEBSITE AND ON INTERNET FORUMS AS PER MY RESEARCH. NISSAN NORTH AMERICA REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEMS IN THE 2002 AND 2003 MODELS AS I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO WORK WITH THEM IN A REASONABLE MANNER. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY FATAL ISSUE AS NOTED IN DIFFERENT INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH ENGINES CATCHING ON FIRE OR CAR STALLING AND LOCKING UP IN TRAFFIC. INTERESTED IN PURSUING A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. ODI HAS DONE NOTHING TO MAKE CONTACT WITH ME OR OPEN AN INVESTIGATION. PROBLEM STARTED ON SEPTEMBER 24, 2005. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
I HAVE A 2003 NISSAN ALTIMA, I PURCHASED IN 03 WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IT WOULD JUST STOP. AT ONE POINT WHILE TURNING IN FRONT OF HEAVY TRAFFIC CAR JUST QUIT, AND EVERY TIME I CRANKED IT WOULD QUIT, WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED MAJOR ACCIDENT FOR ME AND MY 5 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. I WORK VERY FAR FROM HOME AND , TO GET ON A BUSY FREEWAY AND CAR WOULD JUST QUIT IS NOT SAFE. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION NISSAN IS A GOOD CAR AND RELIABLE, BUT THEY HAVE FAILED ME. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT DUE TO 69,000 MILES IT WOULD HAVE PROBLEMS. I HAVE A FRIEND WITH SAME 03 ALTIMA, AND OVER 100,000 MILES, SHE HAS NO PROBLEMS AND CAN DRIVE OUT OF TOWN. WHEN I AM DRIVING UP TO SPEED THE CAR WOULD START STALLING OUT OF CONTROL, AND THEN EVENTUALLY JUST QUIT ON ME. I CAN NOT EVEN DRIVE MY CAR OUT OF TOWN, DUE TO THE FACT I CAN NOT DRIVE IN TOWN IT MAY NOT CRANK. I NOTICED THE PROBLEM WHEN I FIRST GOT THE VEHICLE, BUT DON DAVIS NISSAN SAID IT WAS A RECALL ON STARTER. I CAN SAY DON DAVIS NISSAN SERVICE DEPT. WAS VERY HELPFUL, IT DID TAKE THEM A FEW DAYS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY WERE VERY HELPFUL AND FRIENDLY. I MISSED MANY HOURS AT WORK, AND COULD NOT WORK BECAUSE CAR WAS NOT DEPENDABLE. THE SERVICE DEPT. AT DON DAVIS NISSAN ASSISTED ME WELL, I JUST RECEIVED MY CAR BACK AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE CRANK SHAFT SENSOR INOP. THEY HAVE A RECALL ON THE 2002 BUT NOT THE 2003, GOOD THING I BOUGHT EXTRA WARRANTY, BUT I FEEL THIS IS A PROBLEM AND SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN PAID FOR THRU MY WARRANTY, I THINK NISSAN SHOULD HAVE TAKEN CARE OF IT. I GUESS IT'S JUST THE LOOK OF THE VEHICLE, I WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER ALTIMA AGAIN. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
CAR CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. HAS CUT OFF SEVERAL TIMES. NISSAN DIAGNOSTICS TEST SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG, BUT CAR CONTINUES TO CUT OFF. THE VEHICLE IS GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO RESTART AFTER THE ENGINE STALLED OUT. ONCE WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN THE ENGINE STALLED AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY AN ONCOMING VEHICLE. THERE WAS A RECALL ON AN ENGINE SENSOR FOR NISSANS MANUFACTURED 2000 TO JULY 2002. MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED OCTOBER 2002, AND THEY WILL NOT CONSIDER THAT THIS COULD BE THE PROBLEM. A CAM OR CRANK POSITION SENSOR WAS REPLACED TO CORRECT THE STALLING PROBLEM.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
1) THE POWER VALVE SCREWS LOCATED IN THE ENGINE INTAKE VALVE ON MY 2003 NISSAN ALTIMA 2.5S HAVE STARTED TO COME LOOSE, CAUSING POWER LOSS IN THE ENGINE. ONE OF THE POWER VALVE SCREWS ACTUALLY CAME LOOSE AND WAS SUCKED INTO THE ENGINE, DAMAGING THE CYLINDERS, THUS RUINING THE ENGINE. THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD, O2 SENSOR AND OTHER COMPONENTS IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT HAVE BEEN DAMAGED ALSO. THIS HAS RESULTED IN SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS WORTH OF DAMAGE, ANYWHERE BETWEEN $1500 TO $7500+ WORTH OF DAMAGE. 2) THE FAILURE IS THAT THESE POWER VALVE SCREWS HAVE COME LOOSE AND STARTED BEING SUCKED INTO THE ENGINE CAUSING HIGH DOLLAR VALUE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. MORE IMPORTANT IS THAT THE LOSS OF POWER AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE ENGINE DURING DRIVING ALMOST CAUSED A FATAL CRASH THAT WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN MY DEATH AND THE DEATH OF OTHER INDIVIDUALS ON THE HIGHWAY. ADDITIONALLY, EXHAUST IS ESCAPING THE ENGINE AS A RESULT OF THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THE POWER VALVE SCREW, AFTER BEING SUCKED INTO THE ENGINE AND CAUSING DAMAGE, WENT INTO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND CRACKED IT. EXHAUST FUMES WERE LEAKING FROM THE CRACK IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD POLLUTING THE ENVIRONMENT AND CAUSING ME PERSONAL DAMAGE FROM THE FUMES AND OTHER COMPLICATIONS. NISSAN NORTH AMERICA IS ALREADY AWARE OF THIS EXACT ISSUE IN THEIR 2004 AND 2005 NISSAN ALTIMAS WITH THE SAME ENGINE AS MINE, WHICH IS THE 2.5S ENGINE. THEY ARE IN THE MIDST OF CONDUCTING A SERVICE RECALL RELATED TO THIS ISSUE. HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUE IN MY 2003 NISSAN ALTIMA. 3) NISSAN HAS DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. MY DEALER, WOODMEN NISSAN OF COLORADO SPRINGS HAS WORKED TO COMMUNICATE WITH NISSAN NORTH AMERICA TO MAKE THEM AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND ADD THE 2003 MODEL TO THE RECALL. HOWEVER, NISSAN NORTH AMERICA HAS DECLINED BOTH MY AND THE DEALERSHIPS REQUEST TO ADDRESS THIS COSTLY AND SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS/FATAL FLAW IN THE AUTOMOBILE. *JB

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
2003 NISSAN ALTIMA - 2.5 LITER ENGINE: ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AND THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON.THE ENGINE WAS DIAGNOSED AND THE CAUSE WAS FAILURE OF THE CRANK POSITION SENSOR. THERE WAS NO WARNING BEFORE THE ENGINE STALLED. THE ENGINE STALLED APPROXIMATELY 8 TIMES BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE ENGINE DID NOT START RIGHT AWAY AFTER STALLING'.THE STARTER ENGAGED FOR A LENGTHY PERIOD BEFORE THE ENGINE WOULD START AGAIN. I DID HAVE SOME DIFFICULTY MANEUVERING THE VEHICLE TO A SAFE STOP SINCE THE POWER STEERING DOESN'T WORK WHEN THE ENGINE STALLS. MY WIFE HAD AN EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TIME DUE TO STRENGTH DIFFERENCES.

EQUIPMENT
NISSAN ALTIMA 2003 - VENT BLOWS HOT AIR OVER 100 DEGREES WHEN TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE IS COMFORTABLE (80'S) . MANUFACTURER CHECKED CAR & CLAIMS EVERYTHING WITHIN SPECS. - THEIR SOLUTION IS TO ALWAYS USE AC. HAVE BROUGHT CAR SEVERAL TIMES SINCE PURCHASE NEW & THEY WILL NOT RESOLVE. MY CONCERN IS ARE THERE FUTURE PROBLEMS TO THE CAR CONNECTED TO THIS & OF COURSE THE UNCOMFORTABLE OF THE HEAT. *NM

I BROUGHT A BRAND NEW 2003 NISSAN ALTIMA 3.5 FROM LEN STOLER NISSAN. WE NOTICED A LIGHT MIST OF SMOKE FROM THE TAILPIPE IN THE SUMMER TIME. I CALLED TO THE DEALER THE DEALER STATED THAT WAS NORMAL. THE CAR STARTED BLOWING LIGHT WHITE SMOKE, THE DEALER STATED CHANGE MY GAS TO SUPREME OCTANE. AT JUST OVER 25,000 MILES THE CAR STARTED BLOWING HEAVY WHITE SMOKE, WE HEARD A WATER SOUND UNDER THE CAR, THE OIL LIGHT WOULD COME AND GO OFF, AND IT STARTED LOSING POWER. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER THEY TOLD US WE HAD SLUDGE IN THE ENGINE. WE TURNED IN ALL SERVICE RECORDS SHOWING THAT THE MAINTENANCE WAS KEEP UP ON THE CAR. THE DEALER AND NISSAN MANUFACTURER STATED THAT SLUDGE ONLY COMES FROM LACK OF MAINTENANCE AND SLUDGE DO NOT COME FROM NOTHING ELSE AND REFUSED TO HONOR THE WARRANTY. THE DEALER SAID FOR $700. THEY'LL CALL THE NISSAN REP. BACK OUT; LOOK PAST THE OIL CRANK CASE OPENING AND LOOK IN THE BOTTOM OF THE OIL PAN. I REFUSED TOOK IT TO NATIONWIDE NISSAN THEY OPENED MY OIL PAN TOOK MY MONEY, DID NOT LET ME SEE WHEN IT WAS OPEN JUST CLAIMED MY PAN WAS FULL OF SLUDGE. THEY DID TAKE A PICTURE, SHARED IT WITH THE OTHER DEALER, AND TOLD ME THE SAME THING BUT THEY ALSO SAID THAT THE NISSAN REP THIS TIME TOLD THEM OVER THE PHONE THAT NISSAN WILL NOT FIX THE CAR. WHERE IS THE CUSTOMER SERVICE? THAT SHOWS HOW NISSAN STICKS TOGETHER! SO WHAT NOW? I KNOW I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER NISSAN AND IS TELLING EVERYBODY ELSE ALSO! THESE DEALERS/NISSAN WILL SELL U A CAR BUT WILL NOT HONOR THERE WARRANTY! *JB

DT: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE IT WILL COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN . ONCE THE VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN THE DASH LIGHTS WILL ILLUMINATE. THE CONSUMER STATED THAT ONCE THE VEHICLE STALLED ONCOMING TRAFFIC DID NOT KNOW THE VEHICLE STOPPED, AND THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THE SERVICE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. BUT THEY DID ADJUST THE IDLE AND SUGGESTED ROUTINE MAINTENANCE. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A SERVICE STATION TO HAVE THE ROUTINE MAINTENANCE PERFORMED. THIS DID NOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM. *AK
