WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WITH 65 SPEED MPH AND THE SUNVISORS JUST DROP RIGHT ON MY HEAD AND CAUSE ME JUMP AND ALMOST LOSS CONTROL OF MY CAR. BUT LUCKILY THERE WAS NO OTHER CAR AT THAT TIME. THIS SHOULD BE SAFETY RECALL FOR NISSAN. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
WHEN I TURNED MY ENGINE OFF, GOT OUT THE TRUCK AND LOCKED THE DOORS THE VEHICLE TURNED BACK ON WITHOUT ME BEING IN THE TRUCK OR PUTTING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. I DO NOT HAVE AN AUTO STARTER. THIS HAPPENED ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THE FIRST TIME WE DIDN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE IT HAPPENED AND IT DRAINED THE BATTERY, THE SECOND TIME WE THOUGHT WE WERE HALLUCINATING AND THE LAST INCIDENT ON MONDAY, JULY 15, 2013, IT WAS 8:30 AM AND I WAS EXITING THE VEHICLE TO GO IN TO MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT WHEN THE VEHICLE TURNED BACK ON. I INSTANTLY THOUGHT I LOCKED THE KEYS IN THE TRUCK WHEN I NOTICED THEY WERE IN MY HANDS. I UNLOCKED THE DOORS TRIED TURNING IT OFF THREE TIMES AND FINALLY ON THE FOURTH TRY IT STAYED OFF AND DIDN'T TURN BACK ON. I FELT BAD BECAUSE I THOUGHT MY DAUGHTER WAS TRYING TO SCARE ME ABOUT THE CAR STARTING ON ITS OWN. THERE'S ALSO AN ISSUE WITH THE CAR PULLING TO THE RIGHT ALL BY ITSELF. *TR

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLAPS DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY AND WILL NOT STAY UP, CAUSING AN IMPAIRMENT IN VISIBILITY AND DISTRACTION IN DRIVING. I CONTACTED NISSAN WHO WAS OF NO ASSISTANCE. I AM THE ONLY OWNER OF THE VEHICLE AND PURCHASED IT NEW. THERE IS ONLY 70,000 MILES ON IT. IN SPEAKING TO OTHER NISSAN OWNERS, THEY CONFIRMED THIS PROBLEM IN NISSAN VEHICLES. PLEASE RESEARCH THIS ISSUE. *TR

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR STARTED FALLING DOWN, IMPAIRING SIGHT OF THE ROAD. AFTER ABOUT 1 MONTH OF FALLING, IT WOULD NO LONGER STAY UP AT ALL. I'VE HAD TO PULL OUT THE SIDE VISOR FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE VISOR TO 'PROP" THE DRIVERS SIDE UP. NOW THE PASSENGER SIDE VISOR IS STARTING TO FALL. I'VE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE, BUT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO COMPLETELY REMOVE THE VISOR IF I AM TO SEE THE ROAD. *TR

VISIBILITY/WIPER
MY DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR HAS SUDDENLY DECIDED TO KEEP FALLING DOWN. IT WILL NOT STAY IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. IT SLOWLY WORKS ITS WAY DOWNWARD. WHEN I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD THE OTHER DAY IT JUST FELL ALL THE WAY DOWN. THIS WAS WHILE CHANGING LANES AND COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE DISTRACTION AND THE VISIBILITY ISSUES. I HAVE THE GOLD EXTENDED PREFERRED WARRANTY, AND NISSAN STATES IT ISN'T COVERED, YET I DON'T AGREE THAT IT IS A WEAR AND TEAR ITEM. I DON'T EVEN USE THE VISOR ENOUGH FOR IT TO BE WORN AND TORN....I THINK IT JUT FAILS OVER TIME, PERHAPS DUE TO HEAT FROM THE SUN. THIS APPEARS TO BE A RECURRING PROBLEM BASED ON THE COMPLAINTS ACTUALLY FILED HERE AT NHTSA AND THE POSTINGS FOUND ONLINE. A GOODWILL WARRANTY PROGRAM WOULD SEEM TO BE IN ORDER HERE AT THE MINIMUM. *TR

AIR BAGS
AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON. UPON REVIEW BY THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE SENSOR UNDERNEATH THE PASSENGER SEAT COULD BE THE REASON THE LIGHT WAS BLINKING. THE COST OF REPAIR WOULD BE $2500.00. UPON REVIEW ON THE NISSAN WEBSITE THIS INFORMATION WAS FOUND "NISSAN IS RECALLING 204,361 MY 2007-2008 ALTIMA, ALTIMA HYBRID, 350Z, 350Z ROADSTER, MY 2008 ALTIMA COUPE, ROGUE, MY 2009 MURANO, AND INFINITI MY 2007-2008 G35 SEDAN, MY 2008 G37 COUPE AND EX35 PASSENGER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH CONTINENTAL AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS' OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS) CONTROL UNITS. A VARISTOR IN THE OCS CONTROL UNIT LOCATED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED OUT OF SPECIFICATION. UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS, THIS COULD CAUSE AN INTERRUPTION OF SIGNAL BETWEEN THE OCS AND THE AIR BAG CONTROL UNIT." MY VEHICLE IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, YET I WAS INFORMED BY NISSAN THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. IT SEEMS AS IF THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS ON ALL FOUR DOORS MALFUNCTIONED, NOT AUTOLOCKING OR UNLOCKING WITH SMART KEY, OR DOOR HANDLE BUTTON. PASSENGER SIDE IS INTERMITTENT, SO IT IS UNCERTAIN WHEN DOOR IS LOCKED OR NOT AND I CANNOT GET MY CHILD OUT OF THE CAR FROM THE OUTSIDE WITHOUT SOMEONE ELSE BEING INSIDE TO MANUALLY UNLOCK THE BACK DOORS. THIS IS AN EMERGENCY SAFETY ISSUE AND REQUIRES RECALL. *TR
