CAR WILL FREQUENTLY DELAY MOVING FORWARD FROM A STOP WHEN PRESSING THE GAS. IT TAKE ABOUT 5 SECONDS FOR IT TO RESPOND. ALSO THE CAR DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHIFT WHEN ACCELERATING. I HAVE TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS FOR THE CAR TO SHIFT TO STOP THE RPMS FROM REVVING TOO HIGH. THIS WILL OCCURS WHEN TRYING TO GAIN SPEED FROM A STOP. THESE ARE BOTH SAFETY ISSUES BECAUSE MY CARS REACTIONARY TIME IS DELAYED OR IMPAIRED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT THE SPEED OF 50 MPH AND MY HOOD FLEW OPEN. I HAD TO SLAM ON MY BRAKES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY AND TRY AND PULLOVER WITH NO VIEW OUT MY FRONT WINDSHIELD. THERE IS DAMAGE TO MY HOOD AND SURROUNDING AREA DUE TO THIS MISHAP. I AM AFRAID TO EVER OPEN MY HOOD IN CASE IT DOES NOT SHUT PROPERLY AGAIN. I HAD JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR IN NOVEMBER OF 2019. I HAD MY SON IN THE CAR WITH ME AT THE TIME. *TR

I CONTACTED THE CLAY COOLEY DEALERSHIP IN DALLAS FOUND AT 39690 LYNDON B JOHNSON FWY SOUTH, DALLAS, TX 75237 ON MAY 1ST, 20202 VIA CHAT FOR AN AIRBAG SERVICE RECALL.

STEERING, SUSPENSION, WHEELS
BOUGHT USED 2015 ALTIMA SV 13 DAYS AGO. BRAND NEW TIRES WERE PUT ON BEFORE I TOOK DELIVERY. THREE DAYS AGO, IT STARTED FEELING LIKE I HAVE A FLAT TIRE, DRAGGING THE RUBBER, PULLING, AND SWAYING FROM REAR WHEN I PARK. MPG IS TERRIBLE, TURNS ARE WIDER, VIBRATES IN STEERING WHEEL WHICH WORSENS AT HIGHER SPEEDS. CHECKED TIRES, SAW 9 .25 WEIGHTS ON PASS FRONT WHEEL, 2 .25 WEIGHTS ON PASS REAR WHEEL, DRIVER FRONT WHEEL HAS GLUE WITHOUT WEIGHTS, DRIVER REAR WHEEL, SAME THING. PASS REAR TIRE HAS 1/2 INCH SLOPE INSIDE ON TOP OF TREAD, LIKE IT'S SEPARATING. FEELS LIKE LOOSE SUSPENSION, WOBBLY AND OUT OF SOCKET. TIRE GUY SAYS BAD TIRE. DEALERSHIP SAYS I GOTTA PAY FOR ALIGNMENT. I JUST BOUGHT THE THING LESS THAN TWO WEEKS AGO, WITH EVERY PENNY TO MY NAME. DEALERSHIP SENT ME AWAY, UNTIL I HAVE MONEY IN MY ACCT TO ALIGN IT. I'M A DELIVERY DRIVER AND NEED TO BE SAFE, ESPECIALLY WITH COVID19, I'M AN ESSENTIAL DRIVER, MAKING DELIVERIES OF FOOD AND NECESSITIES TO STAY AT HOME ORDERED CIVILIANS, TO STOP THE SPREAD OF CORONAVIRUS IN DFW, TEXAS, ORDERED BY JUDGE ABBOT, TO PROVIDE FOR OUR COMMUNITY. I WORK FOR SEVERAL COMPANIES, PROVIDING HOT MEALS, GROCERIES, MEDICINES, PERSONAL CARE, AND CLEANING SUPPLIES TO COLLEGE STUDENTS, RETIREMENT HOMES RESIDENTS, AND FAMILIES, WHO MIGHT NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THESE KEY SURVIVAL NECESSITIES WITHOUT THE WORK WE DO.

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. IT RAINED AND THE WATER FLOODED IN THROUGH SOME DRAIN. NOW THE VEHICLE HAD 2 INCHES OF WATER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, FRONT AND BACK. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY ARE NOT ACCEPTING RESPONSIBILITY. THE VEHICLE IS DEVELOPING MOLD AND ELECTRICAL ISSUES. IT IS NOT SAFE TO SIT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND IS A MAJOR HEALTH AND SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS MANUFACTURING ISSUE BUT THE DEALERSHIP IS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE ME PAY FOR REPAIRS SINCE THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY.
