2017 Nissan Altima owner complaints

The issue happened multiple times but seems to happen more, the longer the vehicle is running. The first time I was waiting in a parking lot with the air condition running. I was leaving the parking lot and the vehicle paused and lost accelertion power for a few seconds and started going. I though it was an issue with the air condition so I turned off the air condition to see if it would happen again. When I got to a stop light and started to accelerate it paused again then accelerated. The pause seems to be from 5 to 10 seconds before the car would move.the longer the car was running the more it happened. At this time the check engine light was not on. On shorter distances the problem would not start but on long distances or on acceleration, the pause would continue. Finally the che

Transmission started to slip in early 2019. Went to dealership immediately to be informed that the CVT transmission needed to be replaced. Dealership quoted us $5600 for the repair of a rebuilt. We looked at the error code and saw that all other years and models had already been recalled due to the exact same error. Nissan told us they would give us "assistance" at 60%, which still was over $1600 expense, for a car just 2 years old. The car was at the dealership for 3 weeks. When I picked up the vehicle, the check engine light came on again. Took it right back. Nissan informed me it was a faulty oxygen sensor. Cost another $800. We will never buy another Nissan again.

While driving at highway speed (75mph), my RPM's shot up. I let off the accelerator briefly and when I attempted to push the accelerator again, nothing happened. My car continued to slow down and I was almost hit from behind. I was able to pull off to the side of the highway. I had my car towed to a garage and they said the car had 4 error codes, all having to do with the transmission. I have had my car towed to the dealership as I am still covered under my 5 year/ 60000 mile warranty.

Car is not shifting properly by itself when accelerating get stuck in the first gear. Also periodically the pedal has a three second delay when pressing on it to accelerate this happens almost daily. The only remedy that fixes it is to shut the car off and restart it. This happens when the car is stopped as far as the pedal goes. The acceleration where it does not shift can happen at any time but at least happens 2 to 3 times a week does it matter if I'm on the highway or on a regular road.

Just bought a 2017 Nissan Altima SR. Took it for a ride. Attempted to merge into traffic and the car had zero acceleration once I merged and then the transmission seemed to completely disengage. The RPMs week to around 3500 so I quickly had to pull off so as not to get rear ended. Brought the car to a stop and attempted several times to push the gas but the car would not pick up any momentum. I eventually turned the car off and waited a couple minutes. I restarted the car and placed it in drive and the car accelerated like a turtle but eventually got up to 30 mph. I turned around and headed back home and parked the car. Calling my mechanic to see if he has any knowledge related to these damn CVT transmission. Not sure why these cars aren't barred from being resold like they did wi

Airbag light came on with no previous conditions that should have caused that. Dealership in Dothan, AL originally said a bad connection under the passenger seat caused it. They supposedly cleaned the connection and reset the light. The airbag light came on again days later. The same dealership now says the entire passenger seat and airbags sensors/connections will have to be replaced at $2500+ out of pocket costs.

The contact owns a 2017 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000.

Driver search airbag warning light illuminated Took vehicle to authorized Central Houston Nissan whi SCANNED VEHICLE AND FOUND DTC B0020-13 STORED IN AIRBAG SYSTEM. PRINTED AND FOLLOWED THE ESM DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE AND PER ESM WILL NEED TO START REPLACING THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG MODULE WICH IS PART OF THE SEAT ASSY This is of no fault of my own and not the result of normal wear and tear. My car is not safe to drive and will not pass state inspection due to this safety hazard. Without costly repair which is not covered by Nissan, airbags will not function properly and pose significant road and passenger safety hazard

UNKNOWN; Someone rear-ended me Monday, Nov. 27, 2023 and damaged my driver side taillight/corner of bumper. It was an impact of about 20mph, and believed to be a result of black ice/the other driver following too closely. Today, Saturday, December 2, 2023 the airbag warning light appeared. It didn't come on with Monday's impact, so I am concerned that it could suddenly deploy while I am driving.

The driver side airbag warning light appeared on dashboard approx 2 months ago. I took it to Piazza Nissan for service, where a 27 point vehicle inspection was performed. I was told the airbag needed to be replaced, as well as the LF seat back assembly. The parts would cost just over $2000.00, and with labor would be just over $3000.00. I was also told there is a national backorder for the parts, and the dealer would call me when they are available. The airbag does not work on the front driver’s side of the car anymore. My car has never been in an accident, the airbags were never deployed, and I have regularly had all of the maintenance checks done at Nissan dealers. I do not understand what would cause this problem except for faulty parts.

The collision avoidance sysytem come on when there is nothing in the area while I am driving . Is now happening every day .

Since the start of 2018 I have had my car shut off while driving. I have taken it multiple dealerships to help solve this issue. Every time they came back and said that they could not duplicate the problem and nothing could do for me. I have reached out to the manufacture they also said the same thing they could not do anything. This is a huge safety that I stated. This is still under manufacture warranty and they will not do anything.

The right rear window closes very slowly all the time

I was on my way to work on Saturday 12/18 and as I was making a left turn my steering wheel locked and I actually hit a curb hopped it and went back into traffic. My axel broke on left hand side and blew my tire. Thankfully my children weren't in the car and a police officer happen to see the whole thing. I couldn't get my steering wheel to turn or come unlocked. That was very dangerous, and I could have been seriously injured and someone else also. I didn't get any warning lights or anything to this was going to happen. Clearly from the complaints this has been ongoing and there still hasn't been a recall to get the issue fixed or resolved. My insurance company will be looking into it.

The power steering pump (2017 Nissan altima sr, 2.4l, 35,980 miles) began to produce whining noises (high frequency pitch sounds) both when the engine runs with moving and when the car moves. Particularly, when I turn the steering wheel while the engine is on, it produces higher noises. If I don't turn the power steering wheel while the engine is on, it produces lower whining sounds. Thus, boulder Nissan in colorado replaced the problematic pump with a new one. However, the new one is not the solution at all. I have complained this issue against boulder Nissan. They couldn't solve the issue because the power steering pump itself is defective. I know all of 2011 ~ 2018 altima have the same issue, which has been well known on the internet. Nissan company must recall the power steering wheel

I have made a complaint to attorney general office also.. I bought my Nissan brand new august 2017, not even a year old it started having issues , with the push button start and the brakes. I was driving home from work and my car stop. I could not move it this was 2018 where you cant move the car or start it . It was towed to Nissan dealer.

In 2019 the same issue happen again brake switch system failure. I also have receipts stating this. The car stop on a busy street. I waited 2 hours for Nissan road side assistance , they towed it to Nissan. This is a very dangerous issue. Ther should be a recall about the brake switch system failure.the towed it to

On Sunday December 12th just north of Birmingham on I-65 there was a foreign object in the lane (appeared to be a fairly large piece on concrete). It was between 8-9p thus dark. Due to the amount of traffic driver could not swerve to avoid the object. The object bent the front driver wheel which resulted in needing to replace the driver front wheel and tire (OEM Nissan Wheel and cover, third party recycled tire). The object in the road could have caused far worse damage and bodily injury. We do not have a receipt for the $60.00 used tire.

My vehicle was parked in the stalls in front of the casey's general store entrance in evansville, wisconsin. I was parked there from 8am-5pm and when I returned to my vehicle, there was damage to the rear right bumper as if another vehicle had swiped mine backing in or out of the neighboring stall. There was no previous damage to my vehicle-it was in perfect condition as it is brand new.
