Altima

  • Automatic transmission
  • 134,000 miles

Obviously there is something defective. The suspension corroded away from the frame of the vehicle that is only 2013 and I bought the vehicle in 2014. Yes I live where there is snow, but that is not even a factor. previous vehicle owned was a Chevy Cavalier... I had that car for over 10 years and NEVER had a rust problem or any breakage from the frame. Nissan wants to not have a recall, when this is a matter of life and death. My situation could have been a lot worse if I was driving at a higher speed or on the highway. This is a lawsuit waiting to happen. I also have children who ride in this vehicle and I DO NOT feel safe at all now.

The car is sitting unable to be driven. The repair bill is over $1000. Supposedly it's not covered under warranty. I was not aware this was a problem until I did some internet research. Thankfully I have not had engine or any other trouble besides a front wheel bearing which cost over $500 to replace/repair. I did not even know I had 3 other recalls regarding transmission/hood latch/seat belt sensor. Nissan just doesn't want to admit whatever they have used is defective and its a failure on the vehicle maker. This is putting lives at risk. I don't even have the car paid off. Definitely considering a trade in. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE ANYMORE! Thank you for creating yet another PTSD trauma in my life when it could have been avoided had you made a better/safer vehicle.
