Takata recall, doesn't accelerate when petal is pressed but instead delays for 3-5 seconds. Then it jerks and accelerates quickly

- Broadview, IL, USA

Takata recall- this car is the worst and horribly built. If you sit in the car it looks like a nice car but if you take a peak you will see how horrible it is. Under the steering wheel you can see the wires hanging out. The fuel on the car is done. We always get the car checked and it's always something wrong with the fuel. Which probably has to do with the 2015 recall that we weren't properly notified about. The windows do a weird lock thing, where sometimes I think I'm unlocking the window and the door at the same time. I hate that we invested so much into this Nissan and it's probably the worst car ever (and ive only had Nissan since I was 16 so that says alot). When your driving the car jerks like it wants to shut off but when we take it anywhere they don't see the problem. The car is trash.

The power steering pump went out in our 2015 Nissan Altima. I caused a very high pitched noise and steering was affected.

- Logan, UT, USA

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Altima. While driving 15 mph, the plastic clasp that held the steering wheel became loose. The clasp fractured the floorboard and water leaked into the driver's side of the vehicle due to the rain. The contact's legs and feet became soaked. The contact dried off the inside of the vehicle at a nearby fuel station and drove home. The dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was 55,000.

Power steering leaks contiuosly.

When trying to make a turn I randomly lose all power steering. It has happened twice since I've owned the car. I am a second owner and have driven it 4,000 miles.

The power steering on my 2015 Altima is very hard to turn. The mechanic replaced the power steering pump twice and replaced the fluid and the steering wheel is still very hard to turn. The power steering indicator light is now on and I still can't turn the steering wheel. This is a very unsafe condition that Nissan should recall and repair. This car has 5200 miles on it and this is totally unacceptable. The car also has a very high pitched whine noise that is very annoying. We previously owned Toyota Camry and I'd Nissan don't take care if this problem I will not refer them to anybody and go back to Toyota.

- Overland Park, KS, USA

Direction of car "wonders" slightly from side-to-side when driving at highway speeds. Need continuous small steering wheel correction in order to keep car in straight line. Very annoying and stressful to operate car.

Bought 2015 Nissan Altima brand new. From day one have had a problem with vehicle. Going above 60 vehicle wants to drift out of lane. Been in contact with Nissan corporation, and they are no help. Say that is how the vehicle is. This car is very unsafe. Nissan sent out a specialist for alitmas, and he said it was normal. He said he did something to help the driving, but it did not help at all. Horrible car. Really wish I could get out of this car, because of this issue. Will not buy another Nissan ever again!!!

- Townsend, GA, USA

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Altima. While driving approximately 65 mph, the vehicle drifted left or right without warning, which made it difficult to keep the vehicle straight. The contact stated that the failure became more severe in windy conditions. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. The dealer stated that in order to steer the vehicle, their hands needed to be located on the bottom of the steering wheel in order to better steer the vehicle. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 16,500....updated 09/14/16

I agree with others about Nissan needing to repurchase/compensate for all the issues.this vehicle feels very unsafe and they just push it all off. The power steering makes varying loud, annoying, distracting, whining noises the entire time you drive it. The car hesitates and jerks while driving or trying to drive from a stop which feels very unsafe and makes me worry about being hit. There are so many problems that are unsafe with the 2015 Altima and Nissan refuses to admit them and constantly says "everything is normal" or 'its the way that transmission works". a huge waste of time and energy trying to deal with Nissan. They also kept insisting to me that the airbag light coming on while a grown adult was seated was "normal" as well until all of a sudden there was a recall...just to show how they lie and cover everything up.I bought this car brand new in December 2015 and have had these issues since. Have been to dealership many times for the issues as well as having a Nissan tech come to assess but of course everyone sticks together and states it "all normal".there are also problems that are not safety issues but value issues such as the xm service that is horrible but you pay for and the cheap build of the vehicle/paint.

First I was pulling out of my driveway and the car just stopped, I started the car back up and it went. I drove about 3 miles and it was like I couldn't steer the car and as I was pressing the brakes the car was like accelerating. I had to repeatedly push on brakes for the car to slow down and stop. I haven't had this car but 6 months and it's a new vehicle

Car was brought brand new. Did not have any problems until one day my husband was driving to the dealership to have the car scheduled maintenance done at 3000miles. While driving, the steering wheel went stiff and hard to control. He managed to drive to the dealership without hurting himself and getting into an accident. The dealership stated that the electric steering pump was the problem and car has to stay for 4 days and they changed the steering pump. A few days after, I was driving the car to work which is about 2 miles or less away from home, the steering wheel went stiff on me while I was making a turn to the parking lot. I had to step on the break to avoid hitting the electric pole. Went to the dealership, they said that they needed to repair the wiring harness and something about a rust Y nut that they needed to polish so it would not lose contact with the electric system"?" im not sure about that part though. It was my husband and the service advisor who had that talk. My concern now is that we feel that we have a lemon car. Tried contacting Nissan Corp but they said that all repairs have been done and if it happens again that they will review the case. My point is, the car is unsafe to drive. The steering wheel will give out on you while driving and might cause an accident. Please advise us on what to do with this. I almost had one in this car, I don't feel safe hauling my two kids in this vehicle anymore but Nissan would not do anything about it- well I guess not until we have an accident. I could not even bear to trade the car in because the next owners might have the same problem... please help!

Brake issue, ABS, traction, while driving my car at 15 mph my brakes locked up and stopped my car in the middle of the road (with traffic) fairly forceful stop I might add. There has also been a grinding noise when applying the brakes at random time. 1 week prior to the issue with the brakes my driving assist sensors malfunctioned. After obtaining a rental car the Saturday that my brakes failed I was told that Monday morning that my car was fine and that my brakes failed when my driver assist sensors malfunctioned a week prior. Talk about scary and my family no longer feels safe in my car. Nissan told me this was a normal function of the car and there was nothing they could do about it. There is also according to Nissan rep an unknown clanking noise coming from the suspension and or steering. I truly believe that with all of these issues going on there is a huge risk of my family being in harms way.

My car which was purchased less than a month ago, is back at the dealership for the third time. The car continues to have many issues. There is a shimmy/vibration in the steering column as well as vibration in the door, accelerator and floor boards. It often seems that there are problems with the suspension as well as the brakes. The most important issue is that the car continues to drive off the road to the right and you have to force it out of a right-hand turn. Although this problem also seems to occur to the left as well, it is not as apparent. What is apparent, is when you try to compensate for the drifting, it over-compensates to the other side and it never feels as though the tires are holding the road at all times. It is practically impossible to manage the car on the highway. This issue is a huge safety issue that is not only putting the lives of myself and my family in danger but the lives of the others on the road as well. I have absolutely no confidence that this car can be repaired to any level of safety.

My Altima is only 2 months old and did not start 4X already. It seems to do this first thing in the morning when the car is cold. My steering wheel is vibrating constantly and I can feel a vibration with my foot on the accelerator. There is a loud noise like a constant dentist drill under my hood that is louder every time I turn. The dealership just replaced my power steering pump and there is no change! my passenger airbag light is on when there is a passenger in the car. It will go off during drive time. It does not matter if I have my purse, a bag, heavy books or a person-it sporadically goes off and on while I am driving. I do not feel safe knowing the airbag will not deploy in a crash! lithia Nissan has checked the sensor, but it is still doing it. I owned a 2008 Altima and 2011 Altima that never required service other than oil changes and air in my tires. I am very disappointed with this 2015 piece of junk! I can hear wind noise no matter what speed I am driving. I feel like I am in a crash test every time I slow down. Nissan tech said it is the new cvt transmission. Honda, Lexus, Toyota, Mercedes and Audi have cvt and it is a smooth ride! why does Nissan cvt jerk you around? the car is so cheaply made the speakers are popped up and paint is chipping. I have reported my issues to Nissan Corp. And BBB. The newest issue is the RPM rev up as I sit at red lights. I want Nissan to rebuy this car back!

I feel while I'm driving the car want to go left or feel like it's about to loose control of the car. Trouble accelerating

Nissan Altima 4D sedan 2.5S felt and looked great at 17 odometer readings. Overtime it has lost power and has made me have a rough time on highway than usual. Going at speeds of 55-75+ all seats feel as if they're going to detach from the bottom compartment. Wheels on this sedan are at recommended psi 35-40 yet going at 55-75 speeds it feels as if I'm riding a horse with different types of measures on each side. Front window along with rear end window have both been dislocated from its original position. My car is slowly breaking down at 7.2K miles brand new. Recently went back to the dealership car loan was made and obviously everything was fine. I'm not going to deal with their little game. It's a matter of time until the body on this sedan breaks apart. I have had no car accidents, problems began as first oil change was performed Nov 11 2015. It's becoming very difficult to manage vehicle on highway as it goes left or right as wind hits front/rear. Have personally tried figuring out what the problem is have noticed a lot of black goo rear area by tires, front end, under back seats, under passenger and driver seat. At times I feel as if the right side is suspended a bit more than the left, and vise versa. Noise level has increased significantly with all windows and doors closed. Somethings definitely wrong with the structure of this vehicle NHTSA, I'm asking for an investigation helping me and others with this problem.
