POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
TRANSMISSION FAILURE WITH 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA. AT ABOUT 60,000 MILES I NOTICED MY TRANSMISSION SLIPPING FROM 1ST AND 2ND GEARS. THEN IT GOT PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND STARTED JERKING WHEN COMING TO A STOP. I TOOK IT TO NISSAN DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION AND THAT IT WOULD COST ABOUT $4000. AFTER REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION THE PROBLEM IS GONE AND CAR IS BACK TO NORMAL. I DID RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF CASES WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. HOW CAN I GET MY COMPLAINT HEARD AND RECONCILED BECAUSE THIS IS TRULY A NISSAN DEFECT AND NOT JUST ORDINARY WEAR AND TEAR ON THE CAR. I THOUGHT INITIALLY I JUST HAD BAD LUCK. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. *TR

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
TIMING CHAIN PROBLEM WITH 2005 NISSAN MAXIMA. AFTER HAVING MY TRANSMISSION REPLACED (DIFFERENT COMPLAINT), THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE TIMING CHAIN GUIDES BREAKING AND THAT MY TIMING CHAIN AND CORRESPONDING PARTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED FOR $1600. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A PROBLEM BECAUSE MY CAR IS NOT OLD AND SHOULD NOT NEED THIS REPAIR. I DID RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF CASES WITH THE SAME DEFECT IN NISSAN MAXIMA'S. I WOULD LIKE MY COMPLAINT HEARD AND A POSSIBLE RECALL DONE IF POSSIBLE. THIS IS CLEARLY A NISSAN DEFECT AND PROBLEM AND NOT NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE CAR. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL
I HAVE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT CODES TO A "CAM POSITION SENSOR" PROBLEM. I WAS GOING TO HAVE MY REGULAR MECHANIC REPAIR IT, BUT THEN I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A PREVIOUS RECALL ON THIS PART. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY SAID TO TAKE IT TO A CERTIFIED NISSAN DEALER AND VERIFY IT WAS A "CAM POSITION SENSOR" CODE. THE DEALER VERIFIED IT WAS.THE DEALER SAID THEIR RECORDS SHOWED THAT PART HAD BEEN REPLACED ONCE BEFORE, BUT NISSAN SAID THE REPAIR WOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF. WHEN I BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR THE REPAIR, THE DEALER CALLED ME LATER TO SAY HE COULDN'T REPAIR THE PART BECAUSE THE PROBLEM WAS THE CONNECTOR NOT THE SENSOR. THE COST JUST HAPPENED TO BE THE SAME PRICE AS THE CAM POSITION SENSOR. ($260.00) I FOUND THAT TO BE A VERY COINCIDENTAL. L TOLD THEM NOT TO REPLACE THE CONNECTOR AND I WOULD LIKE TO RESEARCH THE COST OF THE CONNECTOR TO MAKE SURE THEY WEREN'T PULLING THE WOOL OVER MY EYES. TO DATE THE REPAIR HASN'T BEEN MADE. IS THERE A DANGER TO MY WIFE IF SHE DRIVES THIS VEHICLE? I'D LIKE NISSAN TO PAY FOR THE COST OF THE CONNECTOR. MY CASE FILE WITH NISSAN IS # 6381655. THE REPRESENTATIVE I SPOKE WITH WAS MARCUS. HIS EXTENSION AT NISSAN'S 800 PHONE NUMBER IS # 41490. ARE THERE ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PART GOING OUT TWICE? I'D APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE ME. *TR GREG THOMPSON

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, SUSPENSION
I HAVE A 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA WITH 61,038 MILES ON IT. AS I AM DRIVING, MY CAR WILL JUMP SOMETIMES LIGHTLY & AT OTHER TIMES VERY HARD. IF I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND THEN PUT THE GEAR BACK INTO DRIVE, I WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE CAR TO JUMP INTO GEAR. WHEN I BRAKE, THE CAR WILL JUMP BEFORE STOPPING. IT FEELS LIKE THE ENGINE IS SLIPPING. AT TIMES, THE CAR JUMPS SO HARD THAT I SEE OTHER PEOPLE LOOK MY WAY. THIS CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME, DAY OR NIGHT, HOT OR COLD... THE CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN DRIVEN FOR HRS., SO YES IT IS WARMED UP. IN JUNE OF 2008, I TOOK THE CAR TO A TRANSMISSION SHOP & I WAS TOLD I NEEDED 2 TRANSMISSION MOUNTS AND A TRANSMISSION FLUSH WHICH WOULD COST OVER $900.00. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND I HAD IT DONE FOR A LITTLE OVER $600.00. A FEW DAYS LATER I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO MY MECHANIC 3 MORE TIMES & THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2008, I TOOK THE CAR TO A NISSAN DEALER & IT PASSED ALL OF THE DIAGNOSTIC TESTS. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED. ON 2/6/2009, I TOOK THE CAR TO A NISSAN DEALER & I WAS TOLD THAT I NEEDED A TRANSMISSION WHICH WILL COST ME $4507.00,I NEED A RIGHT ENGINE MOUNT WHICH WILL COST $361.00, BOTH FRONT STRUTS ARE MAKING A CHUCKING NOISE...$832.00, LOWER CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS ARE BROKEN...$809.00. ALL OF THESE REPAIRS BECAUSE OF THE CAR'S JERKING. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IF I GET THIS DONE, THE CAR SHOULD LAST ABOUT 6 TO 7 MORE YRS. I HAD TO PAY $98.00 FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO TROUBLE SHOOT, WHEN THE AMOUNT IS USUALLY $65.00 FOR INSPECTION AT OTHER PLACES. I CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY A NEW TRANSMISSION, I WOULD BE BETTER OFF TRYING TO BY SOMETHING ELSE (NO NISSAN) TO DRIVE. I STILL HAVE PAYMENTS ON THIS CAR, SO THAT IS NOT EVEN BEING REALISTIC. I AM FED UP WITH THIS CAR & THERE IS NOTHING THAT I CAN DO ABOUT IT. I ONLY DRIVE THE CAR TO WORK & PLACES THAT I MUST GO TO, BECAUSE I AM SCARED TO RELY ON IT. I CAN'T ENJOY MY WEEKENDS ANYMORE BECAUSE I HAVE TO DEPEND ON THIS CAR. PLEASE HELP. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY 1999 NISSAN MAXIMA. MY SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND REGARDLESS OF WHAT I DO TO FIX IT, IT JUST COMES BACK ON. I HAVE HAD DIAGNOSTIC TESTS RAN ON IT AND IT HAS COME UP AS SOMETHING DIFFERENT EVERYTIME I FIX THE PROBLEM IT GIVES ME. SO FAR I HAVE FIXED TWO IGNITION COIL PACKS, A NOC SENSOR AND A COUPLE OTHER THINGS RELATED TO EMISSIONS. I HAVE SPENT AROUND $800 TO FIX THESE THINGS AND I AM NOW AM GETTING A CODE THAT SAYS THERE IS AN IGNITION MISFIRE. THE SHOP THAT I AM TAKING IT TO HAS TOLD ME THAT IT'S A PROBLEM THAT THEY CAN NOT FIGURE OUT AND THEY HAVE RESEARCHED IT AND BEEN TOLD THAT NISSAN CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT EITHER. *TR

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA. IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN DECEMBER OF 2008, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD REMAIN ILLUMINATED WHEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WAS OCCUPIED. IN ADDITION, THE AIR BAG SENSOR WOULD NOT WORK WHENEVER A PASSENGER UTILIZED THE BACK REST. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE SENSOR WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE SENSOR WAS NOT DESIGNED TO WORK WITH A BACK REST AND THEY WERE NOT LIABLE FOR THE REPAIRS. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 750 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP, SUSPENSION:FRONT:WHEEL BEARING
2002 NISSAN MAXIMA HAD ABS MODULE FAILURE. CONSUMER STATES THAT THE BRAKES FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. *NJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM BEGAN WITH A VERY LOUD EAR PIERCING SCREECHING NOISE WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THE SOUND WAS INTERMITTENT, SO IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR THE DEALER TO DUPLICATE. THE CONSUMER WENT TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES TO HAVE THE BRAKES CHECKED, BUT THEY WERE FOUND TO BE OK. THE CONSUMER STATED ON ONE OCCASION, HER HUSBAND APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP, THE ABS CAME ON AS HE APPROACHED THE INTERSECTION. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER THE ABS ACTUATOR AND THE REAR ABS SENSOR HAD FAILED. THE SCREECHING NOISE WAS DUE TO A BAD WHEEL BEARING. *JB

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
CAR IS JERKING WHEN BRAKES ARE FULLY APPLIED. ALMOST BAD ENOUGH TO GET WHIPLASH. CAR WAS PURCHASED SEPT. 2006 WITH 64,000 MILES. CAR RAN GOOD FOR ABOUT 1 YEAR. AFTER OWNING THE CAR FOR ABOUT 18 MONTHS, THE JERKING STARTED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE NISSAN DEALER IN MY AREA. THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED TO FLUSH THE TRANSMISSION. I HAD THAT DONE. THE VERY NEXT DAY THE CAR STARTED JERKING AGAIN. AS MENTIONED IN ANOTHER COMPLAINT, JERKING STARTS ONCE FLUIDS ARE WARM. I TOOK THE CAR BACK, THEY LOOK AT IT AND TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM THEREFORE, THEY COULDN'T TELL ME WHAT WAS WRONG. I ASKED THEM IF IT COULD BE THE TRANSMISSION. SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT IT WASN'T THE TRANSMISSION. I TOOK THE CAR HOME. I WAS A LITTLE FRUSTRATED BY NOW. ONE MONTH LATER, I TOOK THE CAR BACK IN. I HAD THE SERVICE WRITER RIDE OUT WITH ME. HE FELT THE JERKING. I ASKED HIM IF IT COULD BE A BROKEN MOUNT. HE WROTE BROKEN MOUNT DOWN ON HIS NOTEPAD. I LEFT THE CAR WITH NISSAN. NISSAN'S SERVICE WRITER CALLED ME BACK THE NEXT DAY AND WOULDN'T YOU KNOW IT, HE SAID IT WAS A BROKEN MOUNT. I TOLD THEM TO GO AHEAD AND FIX IT. THEY DID. I PAID AND TOOK THE CAR HOME. GUESS WHAT? CAR STARTED JERKING AGAIN. I CONTACTED NISSAN AND THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING. 6 MONTHS LATER, THE CAR IS STILL JERKING AWAY. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO NISSAN. I TOLD SERVICE MANAGER ABOUT THE JERKING. HE CAME OUT FOR A TEST DRIVE AND TOLD ME THAT IS WAS THE TRANSMISSION. SAID THAT HE HAD SEEN A LOT OF 2004 MAXIMAS COMING BACK DURING THE LAST OF 2008 WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. HE TOLD ME TO CLEAN IT UP AND SELL IT TO CARMAXX BEFORE IT GAVE ALL THE WAY OUT. HE SAID THAT CARMAXX WOULDN'T KNOW THE TRANSMISSION WAS HAVING PROBLEMS HE TOLD ME THEY DIDN'T CHECK TRANSMISSION BEFORE. HE SAID IT COST 250.00 TO DROP PAN TO CHECK TRANNY. PLEASE PEOPLE, LETS FLOOD NISSAN USA WITH YOUR COMPLAINTS. THEY WILL HAVE TO RESPOND IF WE ALL COMPLAIN. DON'T LET THEM GET AWAY WITH THIS. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
NISSAN OF MIDDLETOWN REPLACED DRIVE BELTS, AIR FILTER, & CHANGED OIL 12/1/08. (I REQUESTED THE ORIGINAL DRIVE BELTS TO SHOW MY HUSBAND AS I NEVER RECALLED HAVING THIS SERVICE DONE ON ANY OF THE CARS I OWNED AT SUCH LOW MILEAGE.) ON 12/5/08, MY 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA (APPROX. 37,900 MI) JUST STOPPED ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY. I WAS PUSHED OFF THE HIGHWAY, OPENED THE HOOD, CHECKED THE BELTS (WHICH WERE FINE) & NOTICED FRESH BATTERY ACID SPEWING FROM THE BATTERY. TOWED TO MECHANIC IN TOWN WHO HAD THE CAR FOR 10 DAYS IN WHICH TIME HE CHANGED THE BATTERY AND SAID THE BATTERY WIRING HARNESS HAD BEEN DAMAGED BUT STILL THINKS IT IS SOMETHING ELSE AS THE CAR WOULD START BUT WOULDN'T RUN. CAR WAS TOWED BACK TO MIDDLETOWN NISSAN AND THEY IMMEDIATELY FOUND THE PROBLEM - THE MASS AIR SENSOR WAS BAD. THEY REPLACED THE SENSOR 12/15/08 AND TOLD ME THAT THESE THINGS GO BAD. I CONTACTED NISSAN HEADQUARTERS AND STATED MY CONCERN THAT THIS HAPPENED AFTER THE MAINTENANCE WORK HAD JUST BEEN DONE. AFTER REVIEW, NISSAN REPAID ME $426.25 FOR THE SENSOR. I CONTINUE TO HAVE CONCERN THAT NOT ONLY MUST I NOW REPLACE THE BATTERY WIRING HARNESS AT A GREAT COST WHICH THE LOCAL MECHANIC ESTIMATED THE PART AT $700 PLUS LABOR, BUT ALSO WHEN I STATED THAT MY CAR JUST STOPPED, WITHOUT WARNING--NO SERVICE LIGHTS, NOTHING (WHAT IF I WERE ON THE THRUWAY DOING 65 MPH AND LOST POWER - ENGINE, STEERING, EVERYTHING -- WITH NO WARNING-- I'D PROBABLY BE DEAD ALONG WITH ANY PASSENGERS) NISSAN'S HEADQUARTERS VERBALLY REPORTED TO ME OVER THE PHONE THAT A CAR IS MECHANICAL AND THESE THINGS CAN HAPPEN. WELL, I'M NOT SATISFIED WITH THIS RESPONSE. I STILL QUESTION WHAT HAPPENED TO MY BASICALLY BRAND NEW CAR WHEN NISSAN MIDDLETOWN DID THE MAINTENANCE WORK ON IT. I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR OPINION ON THE MECHANICS AND THE SAFETY OF THIS VEHICLE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ASSISTANCE. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA HAS 86,000 MILES NEVER WRECKEDOR ANYTHING WELL MAINTAINED AND JUST 5 YEARS OLD THE TRANSMISSION HAD STARTED JERKING AND SLIPPING REALLY BAD. IT DOES IT WORSE WHEN THE FLUIDS ARE STARTING TO GET WARM THAN IT DOES WHEN ITS COLD. MECHANICS TOLD ME BEST BET IS TO CHANGE IT OUT FOR A NEW THAT JUST SERVING IT WITH IT SLIPPING THAT BAD WOULD BE A WASTE OF MONEY. THE TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN GREAT UNTIL RECENTLY I AM STILL PAYING FOR THIS CAR AND STILL HAVE A FEW MORE YEARS LEFT ON IT AND I THOUGHT WHEN I BOUGHT IT SINCE IT WAS PUT OUT BY NISSAN THAT IT WOULD BE A GREAT VEHICLE, WELL IT IS STARTING TO LET ME DOWN, I A NEWBORN BABY AND A WIFE GOING TO COLLEGE AND HERE I HAVE TO WORRY IF SHE WILL GET TO SCHOOL OR HOME WITHOUT BREAKING DOWN. THESE TRANSMISSIONS ARE VERY EXPENSIVE TO JUST GO OUT AND REPLACE. I AM THE ONLY ONE WORKING FULL TIME RIGHT NOW AND IT WOULD BE HARD TO SWING AROUND A ROUGH ESTIMATE OF TRANSMISSION AND LABOR OF ABOUT $4500.00. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE ALOT OF PEOPLE WITH THESE MODELS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION, SO IF YOU COULD PLEASE HELP US AND MAKE NISSAN RECALL THESE TRANSMISSIONS BEFORE THEY HURT OF KILL SOMEONE OR THERE FAMILY I WOULD PERSONALLY APPRECIATE IT.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
I PURCHASED A 2004 MAXIMA MARCH OF 2007, AND NOW AS OF RECENTLY MY CAR IS SUFFERING FROM TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. I CHECKED OTHER WEBSITES TO SEE IF OTHER VEHICLE OWNERS OF MAXIMAS WERE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM AND I HAVE READ SO MANY REVIEWS ON THE TRANSMISSION ON THIS CAR FAILING. I NEVER WOULD OF BOUGHT THIS CAR IF I WOULD OF KNOWN THAT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD FAIL SO EASILY. IM VERY UPSET AND DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE TO GET THIS TRANSMISSION REBUILT AND PUT BACK INTO MY CAR WOULD COST 2300 DOLLARS. AS OF RIGHT NOW MY CAR STALLS OUT EVERYDAY AND STICKS IN 5TH GEAR UNTIL IT COOLS DOWN, BUT IT IS CONSTANTLY SLIPPING WHEN IT DOESN'T GO INTO THIS PROTECT MODE. I REALLY THINK NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS BECAUSE EVERYONE IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS FAULTY TRANSMISSION. *TR
