Engine stalls while driving by model year
What owners say
I get error message for my 2019 nissan altima of engine malfunction, reduce power, service now. Along with other safty features like cash detection, traction and engine light. My car shakes, feels like it will stall especially when stopped and jerks. My VIN does not show this recall. I have gotten this message several times and a obd code reader gives code p0404.
I’ve been experiencing recurring issues with my 2019 Nissan Altima. The malfunction indicator light comes on randomly, often accompanied by several warning lights including the check engine light. When this happens, the car struggles to accelerate and feels like it’s stalling, creating serious safety concerns. I’m aware that there is an active recall for the same symptoms affecting the same model year of the Altima, but my vehicle is not included in the recall due to having the 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine instead of the 2.0-liter VC-Turbo. Despite this, the problems I’m experiencing are nearly identical to those described in the recall notice. I believe this issue may extend beyond the current scope of the recall and deserves further investigation.
The contact owns a 2019 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. After several attempts, the vehicle failed to restart. The vehicle was towed to the dealer; however, no cause for the failure was found. The contact stated that an unknown part was replaced. The contact stated that the failure persisted. The vehicle was towed to several dealers, who refused to accept the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, Southern Nissan Chesapeake, where it was diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the grill shutter valve had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact left the vehicle at the dealer where the vehicle was towed without the contact's consent. The contact could not find the vehicle. The contact found out that the vehicle had been towed to another dealer. The contact stated that when the vehicle was found, the vehicle had been vandalized, and parts were stolen from the vehicle. A Police report was filed. An investigation by the Insurance Company was pending. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle remained at the dealer and had not been driven since. The failure mileage was approximately 43,000.
In August 2024, while driving at around 35 mph, several unknown warning lights illuminated. The background was red and had white writing. The only word I got to see was "Master" something. It flashed so quickly I couldn't read it. The car lost speed like it was about to stall simultaneously. A week later I had to jump start the engine. I had my battery checked and it was good. I had to get another jump start on October 8, 2024. I bought the car new in April 2019. I've replaced the battery twice. I shouldn't have to replace the battery that often. I have kept the maintenance up as required.
My car since 45000 miles has had an acceleration issue. When I engage the gas pedal, 3- 5 seconds pass before the vehicle moves. Once moving, the engine will stutter or slightly jerk forward and backwards, almost to a stalling point. The safety issue is the potential for accident as cars may collide with me from the side or rear not seeing the issue I’m having. Dealership refuses to fix telling me not to bring it in until a check engine light is on. There is electrical malfunctions happening in my car as I near 100k miles still having this issue. In research, many if not all Altima owners are reporting this acceleration issue, there are countless, so much so, the talk is wondering why no recall has been issued. A lawsuit was also filed, Judge dismissed, but plaintiffs were taken care of and problems rectified. If I don’t make a complaint, I’m not doing my part to advance this issue to a higher level. Thank you for listening and taking my voice seriously.
