Altima

  • 100,000 miles
The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Altima. The contact stated the door panels, and the sunroof was leaking water and the floor panel would be drenched with water. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the sunroof drain to be drained. The vehicle was repaired but continued to experience the failure. The contact had the vehicle repaired a third time. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.

Altima 4WD 4-cyl

While driving 65 mph on the freeway when my sun roof exploded a very loud boom.glass flew outward causing the glass to scratch the roof and trunk. Went to Nissan dealership and talked to manger and explain what happened. He told me I could not prove that it was a manufacturer defect. There was nobody around me at the time of explosion it also was not hot. It was at 9:00 am in the morning and was 68 degrees. My car is garage kept. This week our local news station had a segment about sun roofs exploding on Nissan with over 100 reports of the very same thing that happened to my car. I was told by Nissan to file a claim on my insurance and pay my $500 dollar deductible. I feel that this was a manufacturer defect and should be investigated. I am upset that Nissan dismissed me knowing they already been having complaints on this same problem.

I came too a stop sign. I proceeded to make a right turn as I accelerated I heard what sounded like a gunshot. The sunroof apparently exploded and it rained glass on me. I was shocked I pulled over and looked throughout car looking for a object thinking it was thrown at the car. I exited looked for physical damage besides the shattered roof. Nothing was scratched or dented. I looked at the roof I noticed the glass shattered upward. It looked like it exploded inside out. I looked up online and see this happens more then I thought.
