The air bag light came on, on November 2021, and stays on all the time. When I took the car to the dealer to check what was wrong with it I was told the airbag might not deploy in case of impact. The car is less than 8 years old, but I was told it was not under warranty and there was no recall for that. I was told they had to replace two parts: 98820-9HN9ASensor-Side AIRBAG Center and 87650-9HP3ABack Assembly Front Seat, for a total cost of approximately $2400, but the parts were not available. The money was refunded to me three months later and the parts have not been replaced. I do not feel safe driving the car around; unfortunately it is the only car I have. The car is available for inspection upon request.
Many people complain about the sunroof leaking and the compressor. This will be the second time having issues with compressor. It effects my defrost which can be a serious safety hazard. Water accumulates in the floor boards and the headliner which causes mold and mildew which leads to respiratory issues. I paid 1200 to replace the compressor one year ago and not I am having the same issues. I see many people talk about this issue online. Standing water on the floor boards and air does not cool.
When I bought the car the headlights were dim they driver side headlight keeps burning out they said it wasn't covered under the warranty whatsoever but yet you can't see at night to drive if it is dark I cannot drive my car never have been able to since about it but yet Nissan says nothing's wrong with it hit the repairs on me this is not the first time I've made a complaint about this but it does no good
Low beams are too dim while driving at night they look like they are practically not even on at all.
Engine shuts off while driving.. Replaced crankshaft and camshaft position sensor, replaced throttle body, spark plugs, same problem.
Hood latch defective they state recall but no remedy and car stalls while driving locking me in car in middle of road or intersections
Driving at night is very dangerous for me to drive with my kids home I'm a single parent the headlights mainly low beams are very very low you can even till they are on the police pulled me over and made a joke saying I would be better off using two flashlights can you please tell me the problem or help I almost was in a accident with my children in the car is the low beams the highbeams I've had to resort to put a fog lights on my car thank you please respond
I own a 2014 nissan altima, over the time of ownership I have noticed the headlights getting dimmer and dimmer, I assumed it was the bulbs aging and replaced this on 02/15/2020. The new bulbs (silvania silverstars) were supposed to be brighter. There were not much brighter. Later when I went to the dealership they suggested new headlight assemballies as the chrome painting on the insides of the lenses has faded and as a result is not reflecting much light onto the road. The estimated cost of this repair was 800$. I have never owned a car where the headlights have failed in this matter and as a student it is unacceptable and dangerous to have low beams that are so dim they do not even appear to be on at night. Googling this issues shows many forums where people are complaining about the same issue I was having with new headlight assemblies fixing the issue
Where the mileage screen is it keeps blinking on and off and stays black out majority of the time I can't see miles and I can't see what the gear it is in on the dash board . When the weather outside reach over 95-100 the dash board starts too light up and blink lightly too see the miles my car has it is a wire issue and shortage somewhere on electrical part . Second issue is there is a recall already on the hood latch and nissan dealer telling me they can not fix it until they have a solution my hood will not latch so I am driving around with a hood that can fly open and cause a accident any minute and being there a recall nissan is gonna be responsible for all damages

Headlight are very dim at night . When you are driving at night you cannot see anything with the low beam light you will have to turn on the high beam light . I contacted nissan they inform me that this issue would be investigated however they still haven't contacted me back . I changed the headlight multiple time , also I had the headlight restoration . However that sill haven't resolved the issue . I am at the conclusion that a accident will take place due to the headlight been very thin you cannot see what is in front of you once you are driving this is very dangerous in will take someone life.
Sir/madam, I filed a complaint already file #11243824. Back in august. Nissan called me but no action taken. I can not see at night because the lenses are defective. I change the light bulb 3 times. It is not the light bulb it's the mirror surrounding it. There are 48 similar complaints about the light is dim in the same exact car.
Takara recall - the low-beam headlights in my altima are dangerously dim, and I was told it had nothing to do with my bulbs. I was told by nissan it's a wiring issue but online it states "the material inside the projector bowl wear down, burn off, or scuff up, the projector lens doesn't receive as much light to, well project".
Headlamp assembly of the vehicle is extremely dim. High beam works exceptionally but low beam seems to be burned out. Light bulbs have been replaced several times but there is no change is visibility. Vehicle has been taken to autonation nissan where they concluded nothing was wrong with the headlamps. Headlamps have even been adjusted in the direction that project, but still no change in visibility. Headlamp visibility became drastically decreased while vehicle was in motion on the highway
The low beam lights on my 2014 nissan altima are so low that you cannot see at night. I have change the bulbs 2 times and I'm still getting the same results. I took it to my local shop and they suggested me changing out both head lights. Why haven't this issue been recall by nissan?

While driving car lights would dim when turning car shut off while driving. No warning ,no codes , no safety lights to use. Couldn't move car because steering locked plus no power. Would not start towed car to dealer. They can't find the issues. Car is unsafe to drive shutting off and no emergency lights to warn other drivers. Because all power goes. I tried to pull over but lights continued to dim. If it had been daylight wouldn't have noticed. I'm
The bulbs are fading and have been replaced. My research shows that I am not the only owner finding this problem.
I was driving the freeway and lost power engine and shut offs I'm not sure how I didn't have the accident yet. Take it to mechanic find out it was a throttle body position sensor and the throttle body camshaft position sensor crankshaft position sensor replaced all that still giving the same problem how to replace it again. So the speed limit was 70 I was going 65 so lost lost in the entire engine at speed of 65 is really difficult to maneuver
The dealership informed me of the recalls. I was told to contact them as soon as possible. To set up an appointment to get it checked
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 nissan altima. While driving 35 MPH, the steering wheel seized. As a result, the contact had difficulty keeping the vehicle in the correct lane.

The double safety feature of pressing the break to start the car becomes void when the caliper has an issue even without the brake light engaging to show an issue. The car is tricked into thinking that the break is being pressed and will allow you to start it with just pressing the start button. My 8yr old was in the car playing while I was cleaning it and was also able to put the car in gear due to the mechanical system reading that the break was engaged. The car also continues to run after the key is removed and you can drive off with no key in the car. I
Takata recall- I noticed that sometimes the 'airbag' light on the passenger side will be on and no one or anything would be on the passenger side.
After taking in my altima 2014 sv for a recall on the airbag sensors, the issue did not go away. The issue is that there is that about half the times a passenger sits next to the driver seat, the airbag system does not detect them. I am having to restart the car for security purposes in case something ends up happening. I am also having an issue with my AC system. I replaced the compressor a year ago and it seems to be failing again. As a senior software engineer I can safely say that there is definitely an issue with their software. I hope they can fix this soon. Thanks, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).?
