STEERING
SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE WITH THE ELECTRONIC STEERING COLUMN LOCK MALFUNCTIONING ON A 3 AND 1/2 YEAR OLD CAR. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS THAT A PART THAT SHOULD LAST THE LIFE OF THE CAR FAILS SO OFTEN AND EVEN MORE RIDICULOUS THAT NISSAN IS NOT EXTENDING THE WARRANTY OR RECALLING IT FOR THE 2010 MODELS. NOT TO MENTION THAT THE PART IS ON BACK-ORDER AND WHO KNOWS HOW LONG I AM GOING TO HAVE TO COME OUT OF PACKET FOR A RENTAL AND OH BY THE WAY WAITING TO PAY $1300 PLUS TO GET THIS FIXED. THIS IS SO UPSETTING... NISSAN SHOULD STAND BY THEIR PRODUCTS AND RECOGNIZE THE FACT THAT THEIR DESIGN FOR THAT PART OBVIOUSLY DID NOT WORK. NISSAN SHOULD ALSO DO RIGHT BY THEIR CUSTOMERS AND TAKE CARE OF THIS ISSUE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK UNDER THE LCD DISPLAY UNIT, WHICH ALLOWED ITEMS TO FALL THROUGH THE OPENING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT COINS FELL INTO THE CRACK AND CAUSED THE INSTRUMENT PANEL GAUGES TO FAIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE AC AMPLIFIER AND THE UNIFIED METER CONTROL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 76,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
WENT TO GROCERY STORE WITH 2 KIDS (3YRS/2YRS OLD) CAME OUT AND CAR WOULDN'T START. YELLOW KEY LIGHT & RED KEY LIGHT WAS LITE ON DASH. THE CAR WOULD OPEN AND CLOSE WITH KEY FOB BUT CAR STILL WOULDN'T START NEITHER DID IT RECOGNIZE THE KEY FOB WHEN PLACED INTO SLOT. HAD TO GET IT TOWED TO REPAIR SHOP TO LATER FIND OUT A STEERING LOCK MODULE HAD GONE BAD. READ REVIEWS ONLINE ABOUT DIFFERENT YEAR MODELS RECALLED FOR SAME PART #487009N00B BUT NO RECALL ISSUED FOR 2010 MAXIMAS YET SEVERAL PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. REPAIR SHOP AND I CAN NOT GET PART LISTED ABOVE BECAUSE ITS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER WAS TOLD I HAVE TO PAY UPFRONT FOR PART $500 IN ORDER TO BE PLACED ON A WAITING LIST AND PART IS ORDERED THEN WOULD HAVE TO WAIT ANYWHERE FROM 40 TO 60 DAYS AND STILL NOT GUARANTEED. CALLED NISSAN ABOUT ISSUE AND THEY CAN NOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL THE PART IS ORDERED. CALLED AROUND MYSELF TO FIND PART AND VERY DIFFICULT. IF THIS PART WAS AN ISSUE & RECALLED PREVIOUSLY WHY DID THEY CONTINUE TO USE IT? AND NO ALTERNATE PART HAS BEEN MADE TO REPLACE EXISTING PART. IM GETTING THE RAW END OF THE STICK HANDED TO ME. 1ST TO PAY OUT OF POCKET WITH NO GUARANTEE OF THE PART 2ND TO HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE CAR TOWED 3RD FOR THE PART BEING ON NATIONAL BACKORDER. I DONT EXPECT A CAR WITH 52,000 MILES TO GIVE ME ISSUES LIKE THIS & NOT BE COVERED BEING THAT'S ITS A KNOWN PROBLEM. IM VERY FRUSTRATED AT THIS POINT. I HAVE TO MAKE ALTERNATE ARRANGEMENTS TO GET TO WORK. THIS NEEDS TO LOOKED INTO ASAP! *TR

SEATS
THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED 2009 NEW. APPROX 1 YEAR LATER THE DRIVERS SEAT BEGAN TO ROCK. NISSAN REPLACED THE DRIVERS TRACK WHICH THEY SAID WAS DEFECTIVE. A FEW MONTHS LATER IT BEGAN TO ROCK AGAIN AND WAS REPORTED TO NISSAN, THEY STATED THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. THE SEAT CONTINUED TO ROCK AND INCREASINGLY GOT WORSE. JANUARY 2014 THE VEHICLE IS RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT IS DANGEROUSLY ROCKING BACK AND FOURTH WHEN YOU ACCELERATE OR BRAKE. THE SERVICE MANAGER STATES HE IS WELL AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. NISSAN REFUSES TO MAKE REPAIRS BECAUSE ITS OUT OF WARRANTY. FURTHER INVESTIGATION FINDS THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES OUT THERE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I ATTEMPT TO GO THREW NISSAN TO OWN UP TO THEIR PROBLEM. I GET UP TO THE VP OF CUSTOMER SERVICE AND RECEIVE A PHONE CALL STATING THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BUT KEEP MY RECEIPT IN CASE THERE IS A RECALL AND I MAY GET MY MONEY BACK IF THERE'S A RECALL. *TR

ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA DOES IT SEEM TO READ MY KEY ANYMORE. IT HAS A ORANGE LIGHT ON THE TOP LEFT CORNER OF MY DASHBOARD. THE CAR OBVIOUSLY RECOGNIZES THE KEY FOR I AM STILL ABLE TO LOCK AND UNLOCK MY CAR. IT WILL NOT TURN OVER AT ALL. WHEN I PRESS THE PUSH START BUTTON, THE ONLY LIGHT THAT COMES ON IS THE LOCK LIGHT. IT ALL DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE AT ALL. I WASN'T DOING ANYTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY. ONE SECOND IT WAS WORKING, ANOTHER SECOND IT WASN'T. I FIND THIS HIGHLY INCONVENIENT THAT NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENTS AT THE DEALERSHIPS ONLY PROVIDES AID MONDAYS THOUGH SATURDAYS AS IF PEOPLE ONLY HAVE ISSUES WITH THEIR CARS ON MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. THERE SHOULD BE A 24/7 HELP HOTLINE AT LEAST. THIS IS MY SECOND ISSUE WITH THIS SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THE FIRST TIME I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A DEAD BATTERY IN MY KEY FOB. I WENT TO GET A NEW BATTERY FOR IT AND IT STILL DIDN'T WORK. IT'S ALMOST LIKE IT WORKS WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT. *TR

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AFTER LEAVING WORK TO DRIVE HOME, CAR WOULD NOT START, YELLOW KEY SYMBOL WAS ON DASHBOARD. KEY FOB STILL WORKED TO LOCK AND UNLOCK DOORS. CAR BATTERY WAS FINE, HEADLIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS STILL WORKED. CHECKED MANUAL AND IT INDICATED STEERING LOCK MALFUNCTION. HAD TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO NEAREST DEALERSHIP. AFTER WAITING 4 DAYS FOR THE PART TO COME IN, I HAD TO PAY OVER $800 TO HAVE THE PART REPLACED. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN NISSAN NOT COVERING THIS PART BECAUSE OF THE MANY OTHERS WHO HAVE REPORTED THE EXACT SAME ISSUE IN THE 2010 MAXIMA -- EVEN WHEN IT IS A KNOWN AND COVERED PART IN THE 2009 MODEL. *TR

TRANSMISSION SLIPPED WHILE IN TRAFFIC ON THE FREEWAY, THE ENGINE REVVED UP THEN THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED BACK INTO GEAR, JERKING THE CAR FORWARD AND NEARLY REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THIS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES IN SUBSEQUENT DAYS UNTIL I HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED. *TR

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I RETURNED TO MY PARKED CAR AFTER COMMUTING ON THE TRAIN HOME FROM WORK AND TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE. IT WAS A BITTER COLD EVENING AND THE TEMPERATURE WAS APPROXIMATELY 3 DEGREES. WHEN I TRIED TO START THE CAR, THE KEY ICON SHOWED UP ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE STEERING WAS LOCKED AND PUSH BUTTON IGNITION DID NOT START THE CAR. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY STIFF AND DID NOT "GIVE" WHEN DEPRESSED. ALSO, I COULDN'T GET THE CAR TO SHIFT TO NEUTRAL TO MOVE IT WHEN MY HUSBAND ARRIVED TO SEE IF HE COULD DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THEY SAID IT IS A NISSAN PROBLEM AND THE PART IS ON AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BECAUSE OF THE WELL-KNOWN AND ONGOING ISSUES. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF HAVING THE CAR TOWED TO MY NISSAN DEALER TO HAVE THEM INSPECT IT AND REPAIR IT. THEY ARE INSTRUCTED TO SEARCH FOR ANY RECALLS OR WARRANTY WHEN ENTERING THE VIN NUMBER. I'VE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND IT SEEMS LIKE A VERY COMMON ISSUE. EVEN THE TOWING COMPANY DRIVER SAID HE TOWS ABOUT 3-5 NISSANS A WEEK WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND IT'S VERY COMMON, AS IT HAPPENS ALL OF THE TIME. I'M HOPING THEY HAVE THIS PART ON RECALL OR HAVE IT LISTED ON AN EXTENDED WARRANTY REPAIR. MY 2009 MAXIMA HAS 37,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

POWER TRAIN
I HAVE BEEN INFORMED BY MY DEALERSHIP THAT MY TRANSFER CASE IS LEAKING AND IF I DO NOT REPAIR OR REPLACE IT THE CAR WHILE DRIVING WILL BASICALLY THE GEARS IN THE MECHANISM WILL GRIND MAKE A LOUD NOISE AND JUST STOP. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A SAFETY CONCERN. WHEN I CONTACTED NISSAN USA I WAS INFORMED MY CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THEY WOULD NOT REPLACE IT EVEN IF IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. IT ALSO IS WELL DOCUMENTED THAT NISSAN HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSFER CASE LEAKING. WHY IS NISSAN NOT REPLACING THIS PART WHILE UNDER WARRANTY IF THEY NO THERE IS AN ISSUE. *TR

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND CAR WILL NOT START. BATTERY WORKS FINE, INTELLIGENT KEYS WORK FINE, WINDOWS WILL NOT ROLL UP. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT TELL THE REASON OF ITS MALFUNCTION SINCE IT WONT START. THEY RAN THEIR TESTS AND CONSULTED THAT IT IS THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKING UNIT. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WOULD COST 750 TO REPLACE. THEY ALSO TOLD ME TO CALL 1800 NISSAN 1 AND FILE A COMPLAINT. I THEN HAD IT TOWED (PAYING OUT OF POCKET THIS TIME) TO MY HOUSE UNTIL I CAN PAY FOR THE PART AND HAVE IT FIXED. IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT NISSAN HAS NOT RECALLED OR EVEN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR OTHER YEAR MODELS, OR AT THE LEAST MAKE SOME KIND OF CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS THE COST OF THEIR OWN MANUFACTURING MISTAKES. INSTEAD, THEY ASSUME THAT THIS SAME ISSUE WILL NOT HAPPEN TO OTHER MODELS. YET WITH RESEARCHING, THERE ARE A PLETHORA OF CUSTOMERS GOING THROUGH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH THE EXACT SAME PART AND GETTING SCREWED. SO MUCH FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, THEY SURELY WILL NOT HAVE MUCH CUSTOMERS IF THEY CONTINUE TO LEAVE THIS ISSUE HANGING DRY. I WILL ASSURE THAT I WILL NOT RECOMMEND OTHERS TO PURCHASE NISSAN VEHICLES. *TR

STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WENT TO WORK PARK THE CAR WITH NO PROBLEMS, CAME OUT OF WORK CAR WOULD NOT START. THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERIES IN THE REMOTE DUE TO THE YELLOW LIGHT WITH THE INTELLIGENT KEY ON THE DASH, AND THEN REMEMBER I JUST REPLACED THE BATTERY.THE DOORS WOULD UNLOCK AND LOCK WITH NO PROBLEMS, THE BRAKE PETAL WOULD NOT GO IN. THEN THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY HOOD UP A CHARGER AND IT READ IT WAS ON 70% CHARGED, CALLED THE DEALER THEY TOLD ME TO HAVE IT TOWED IN. THE DEALER CALLED ME THE NEXT DAY AND TOLD ME IT WAS THE STEERING COLUMN, WHEN I ASKED THEM WHY WOULD IT DO THIS THE ONLY ANSWER THEY HAD FOR ME WAS THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR MAKE AND MODEL. WITH THE TOWING AND THE DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AND THE PART WITH LABOR IT'S COSTING ME OVER 1,000 DOLLARS, THE STANDARD WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER ANY OF THIS, ALL OUT OF POCKET. I JUST GOT RID OF A 2008 GL 450 MERCEDES BENZ, BECAUSE OF HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT, I HAVE A 4 YEAR OLD VISUALLY DISABLED CHILD THAT I AM CONSTANTLY TRAVELING LONG DISTANCES TO MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS SO THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE TO ME. I ALWAYS HAVE LOVED NISSAN AND THIS IS MY 4TH NISSAN AND WAS PLANNING ON PURCHASING A PATHFINDER IN THE FALLTIME. WHEN I PURCHASED THIS CAR I STOOD BY THE DEPENDABILITY OF THE NAME, AND I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED. *TR

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY INITIAL INCIDENT OCCURRED SOMETIME IN DECEMBER, AFTER PUTTING MY VEHICLE IN TO GEAR (D) FROM PARK POSITION IT HESITATED AND THEN IT FELT AS IF MY WHOLE CAR JUMPED. I STEPPED ON THE GAS TO SLOWLY ACCELERATE AND THE CARS ENGINE REVVED UP BUT THE CAR DID NOT MOVE. IT KIND OF SCARED ME. IT CONTINUED TO DO SO ON MY DRIVE HOME. IT CONTINUES TO DO SO OFF AND ON PREDOMINATELY WHEN MY CAR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WARM UP. AFTER DOING SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AS TO WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THE ISSUE IT SEEMS THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS WITH THIS SAME MATTER. IT IS BELIEVED THAT THE TRANSMISSIONS INSTALLED IN NISSAN MAXIMAS ARE FAULTY AND NISSAN REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IT IS VERY HAZARDS TO BE DRIVING LIKE THIS AND IT IS A VERY COSTLY FIX FOR A PROBLEM THAT SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING THIS EARLY ON OR AT ALL WITH A VEHICLE. *TR

STEERING, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
THE ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER OR START AND THE STEERING WHEEL IS LOCKED. A SMALL YELLOW KEY APPEARS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE LEFT INSTRUMENT DIAL. THE INTELLIGENT KEY DOES NOT ENGAGE. WEB RESEARCH INDICATES PROBABLE STEERING LOCK FAILURE. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO NEAREST NISSAN DEALER TODAY FEB. 5 WHO CONFIRMED THAT STEERING LOCK HAS FAILED. THE DEALER SERVICE PERSONNEL TELLS ME THE REPLACEMENT PART IS ON BACK ORDER, NONE OF THE OTHER DEALERS IN THE WASHINGTON DC AREA HAVE ONE. TECHNICALLY IT MAY NOT BE A SAFETY PROBLEM REQUIRING A RECALL BUT IF YOU HAD THIS PROBLEM ON THE SHOULDER OF AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY OR SITTING ON THE TRACKS AT A RAILROAD CROSSING IT COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. NOW WE WILL NEED SOME EXPERIENCE IN ORDER TO TRUST THE CAR TO OPERATE CORRECTLY IN A SAFE MANNER. I AM GLAD WE HAVE ANOTHER CAR THAT IS WORKING CORRECTLY. *TR

AFTER CONSULTING WITH NISSAN THEY SAID IT WAS FUNCTIONING NORMALLY. IT IS NOT FUNCTIONING NORMALLY AND IS A SERIOUS SAFETY MATTER. NOTICED NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT SAME SUBJECT.

SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE CASUALLY DRIVING, HANDS ON STEERING WHEEL, FOOT ON ACCELERATOR, ASPHALT ROAD SLIGHTLY DAMP BUT NOT WET, ON A TWO WAY STREET WITH NO REASON TO EXPECT A SUDDEN CRISIS, THE ABA BRAKES ON MY 2006 MAXIMA SUDDENLY LOCKED THROWING THE REAR END OF THE VEHICLE INTO A SLIDE FACING ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHICH AT THIS TIME THERE HAPPENED TO BE NONE. WHEN I FELT THE SUDDEN ACTION, WHICH WAS LIKE I HAD RUN INTO AN INVISIBLE WALL, I THEN HIT THE BRAKES ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE STEERING WHEEL SEEMED TO FLOAT WITH NO CONTROL OF THE DIRECTION HEADED. THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE INSTEAD OF BRAKING. THIS SENT THE VEHICLE BACK ACROSS TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD INTO A CONCRETE CURB AND OVER INTO A GRASSY AREA BEFORE THE CAR CAME TO A STOP. ONLY EXTERIOR MINOR DAMAGE FROM HITTING A SMALL SIGN POST. HAD IT IMMEDIATELY TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO ROAD TESTED IT BUT FOUND NO REASON FOR THE INCIDENT. THEY SAID THERE WERE NO COMPUTER CODES FOR WHAT HAPPENED. I SPOKE TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AND CALLED NISSAN TO EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED. THEY HAD NO CLUE FOR WHY. I AM STILL AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC FOR FEAR OF A REPEAT. WITH SUCH LOW MILES AND IN THE GARAGE CARE OVER THE YEARS IT IS NOT TIME TO TRADE IT IN. *TR
