On Sat. 8/7/21 I was driving on a bridge overpass on Roosevelt Ave. in Carteret, NJ at approx. 8:15pm when the HOOD of my 2015 Nissan Ultima suddenly popped wide open, obstructing my view. There was only as tiny gap between the hood and car that I could peak through. I tried not to panic. I slowed down hoping and praying I wouldn't the car in front of me and the cars behind me wouldn't slam into me. The immediate car behind me was able to swerve around me into the other lane and the others were able to stop without hitting me or hitting each other in a domino effect. As cars were whizzing by in the left lane and cars were stuck behind me, I waited for a safe moment and got out to see if I could shut the hood. With effort I managed to shut down the hood, but it wouldn't lock properly. I had no where to pull over so I decided to drive very slowly with emergency lights down the road overpass and then pulled over. I was eventually able to drive slowly and get home without further incident. Several months ago I took my car to the dealer after receiving a recall letter from the manufacturer about this problem. There was only a temporary fix at the time and was told I would receive notification when a permanent fix was available. I was assured the car was safe to drive. I did not receive any further communication from the manufacturer or the dealer. I thought it okay to drive and never imagined this would happen. It was a miracle I didn't crash my car; it would have been a terrible outcome for myself and others. I will be calling them and demand a tow to the dealership for the hood latch repair. The car is absolutely not safe to drive! I just found out on your website that there is now a permanent fix. As of yet I have not been notified! Why is that? This is very negligent and inexcusable! They need to be held accountable! Thank you for your help in this matter.

Hello, I have a 2015 Nissan Altima. I was driving my son to school on May 28, 2021 when my car began uncontrollably shaking. I had to pull over and stop. I took it to a garage in Pleasantville, PA as there is NOT a Nissan Certified dealership near me. The closest one is 1 hour away in Erie, PA which is where i purchased the vehicle. The garage told me the rear control arm broke. I did some research and the internet is full of information regarding recalls for this SAME EXACT issue in the 2013 and 2014 models. Especially in areas that are highly salted in the winter time, which northwestern PA is. A quick reviewof the 2013 to 2015 Nissan Altima model will show you there is not much difference in the models. The difference is mine is a bit newer and the rear control arm should have NEVER broke. I contacted Nissan via email and they stated that there is no recall and therefore nothing they can do. I persisted and they said they would have a specialist review the case. I spoke with the specialist on the phone and they stated that they MAY be able to reimburse me for the PART but not the labor since I didn't take it to a Nissan Garage. I explained to them that the closest garage is an hour a way and so then on top of that, they would have (or I would have) had to pay a tow bill of over $200 as well. There is NO reason this should have broke and is a HUGE safety concern. My son and I were in danger when this broke, which is why the 2013 models have had a recall on this part. The fact this is a 2015 is irrelevant because it's even newer than a 2013 and STILL BROKE, so there SHOULD be a recall. Luckily i was on a highway going pretty slow compared to an interstate. I most definietly would have crashed my car if i would have been on the interstate or going any faster than i was. Please consider declaring a recall. Thank you for your time.

UKNOWN. There is a metal piece under the vehicle that has broken and now scrapes the ground making the vehicle undriveable as this is a safety hazard for sparks and fire. The problem is persistent. The vehicle has not been inspected yet. No warning lights or messages appeared. I was driving in my neighborhood all of a sudden heard a terrible metal grinding noise coming from under my vehicle. I got out and looked and could see something metal had broke and is now dragging the pavement.

When I turn my car on and the whole time it is running there is a noise under the hood sounding. You can not hear it from inside but when you are outside you can most definitely hear it and tell the car is on due to the noise.I thought it may be a fan noise due to maybe leaving the ac on but even with it off and just turning on the car you can hear it. This car has never been in an accident to my knowledge or any fender benders at that. Also sometimes after sitting at a stop light or stop sign and it's my turn to go I put my foot on the gas (not hard) and it goes up to like 3/4 rpms and it takes a few seconds to drop down to regular RPM while driving

The hood of my car keeps jamming but has a weird noise at times while in motion. The dealership is no longer in business I'm guessing because no one neither the cars are there. It's an empty lot.. the last time as I was driving around a curvy street the hood popped opened unexpectedly

Low beam headlights are very dim. Honestly I can't remember if they were ever good when I bought the car bran new. No matter what light bulb I put in there doesn't make a difference they are dim.

I keep getting emails from car fax regarding a safety recall: The secondary hood latch may become stuck in the open position due to a potential for corrosion (in regions with excessive road salt use) in the hood latch combined with improper inspection and maintenance. But the recall status is incomplete: Remedy not yet available. It's been like that for months and I am wondering if I should be concerned.

I was driving down a busy road when my 2015 Nissan Altima started swerving I pulled over to find my rear passenger tire facing inwards come to find out the tow truck employee told me had just towed the exact same kind of vehicle with the same lower control arm break the week before. I see there is a service campion from Nissan but amy vehicle is not included which makes no sense because I live and have always lived in a winter state

Car randomly stalls and stutters. Check engine light appears. Can clear code but the problem always comes back. Happens about once a month, sometimes days in a row.

I was driving and realized my hood wasn't locked in place properly. As I'm driving on the interstate (I-95) the hood was seemingly blowing with the wind going under it. I had to pull over on I-95 to lift and force it to close down completely.

Recall notice sent to deceased owner and not the current owner. Nissan does not appear to have a way to change or add current owners' information in regards to safety recalls.

Arizona emissions testing provided me a recall on secondary hood latch. On 8/31/20 I called thoroughbred Nissan to correct and the service advisor said parts will not be ready, if ready by next year.

While driving on a city street the hood of the car flew open damaging both fenders. Hood was closed but the latch did not secure causing it to fly open causing damage to the body of the vehicle.

I have two ongoing issues that seems to be a very common issue with Nissan Altima. 1st issue is periodically I have no acceleration on gas pedal. This is very sporadic and only seems to happen when the vehicle is warmed up. Almost had crash on a couple of occasions while going thru intersection. Second problem is periodically the cruise control will not engage. These problems are getting worse. Car only has 80K miles on it. 1st appeared around 50K miles on it.

I was driving home from the gym when my car had a funky smell, so I stopped at a friends house, I opened the hood and it turned out it was something with my tires, but the smell went away, as soon as I got back into my vehicle a D I drove maybe a quarter mile away I was making a left hand turn when my hood suddenly popped open, even though I made sure it was closed, that has never happened to me and ever since then I been afraid of opening the hood to even check on anything.

I was driving on a highway at the speed of 50 mph and my hood flew open. I had to slam on my brakes in the middle of the highway and try and pullover with no view out my front windshield. There is damage to my hood and surrounding area due to this mishap. I am afraid to ever open my hood in case it does not shut properly again. I had just bought this car in November of 2019. I had my son in the car with me at the time.
