Car was purchased new in late April 2015. When I opened the trunk of the vehicle for the first time, I noticed there was rust in the spot welds on the left side of the trunk. Front bumper also started to pop out on both sides after driving it the first day and is rubbing and peeling paint from frame of vehicle. Rear windshield was pushed all the way to the left with a large gap to the right. This is a big safety issue. Front fascia misaligned from factory and rust eating away at main frame of vehicle despite there being no scratches or damage to vehicle. Both side skirts misaligned. All doors significantly misaligned from factory. Power steering whines and transmission groans and shifts erratically. Car does not drive straight at speeds 55+ and wanders between lanes. It takes much effort to keep it straight. Trunk lid not aligned properly. BBB mandated Nissan to repurchase vehicle and brand it as a lemon due to serious safety defects & non-conformities. Nissan failed to fix rear windshield after one attempt and failed to fix other issues after 3 repair attempts. Car has been at dealership for 28+ days. Nissan failed to calculate correct repurchase numbers and Nissan still refuses to fix vehicle. After my protesting, Nissan repaired rear windshield but structurally, the rest of the car remains a safety issue. An investigation should be launched. I request nhsta to inspect the quality and build of this vehicle as it endangers my safety and those of other drivers around me. I am still in possession of this vehicle.

I bought a brand new Nissan Altima 2015 car. My car has been having issues. Right now, its mass air flow (maf) sensor failed which had caused safety concerns including drivability problems. The car at times dies in the middle of the road and its hard to control the car. I have infants in my car and I feel it is not safe for a brand new car to have issues. According to my dealer maf sensor is a known issue with Nissan cars. Two days ago I nearly had an accident because of this issue.

This car was purchased new in exchange for a 2015 Nissan Altima that had serious issues with the power steering components. This car seems one step worse than the one I just traded. Heated steering wheel does not work. Power steering growls when the transmission is put into gear and whines with a high-pitched noise that can be heard very clearly in the cabin when the wheel is turned. Engine is noisy. There is also a shimmy in the steering column when the car exceeds speeds over 40 mph. Appointment made with dealer with a Nissan representative (requested by me). Poor manufacture and design of vehicle. Nissan has innovation that is disappointing, to say the least. If Nissan is unable to repair vehicle properly, I will trade vehicle for a Subaru and never purchase another Nissan again due to poor design and safety issues.

Purchased car new. I previously owned a 2014 Nissan Altima with no issues. Power steering on car was very noisy at all times. It sounded like a high-pitched dentist's drill that only gets worse when wheel is turned. Not sure how long electric power steering system will last. After three weeks, dealer agreed to accept car back and swap it for another one. Apparently, there is no fix for this. Degradation in quality and safety is noted on the 2015 Nissan Altima.will never purchase another Nissan again.

On Jan 22, 2015, I test drove a beautiful 2015 Nissan Altima, the speed during test drive did not exceed 45mph and the drive was smooth and without incident. I decided to buy the vehicle and trades a Nissan 2012 Altima with low mileage and no mechanical problems. On the way home, on the Florida turnpike I noticed a drifting from left to right with no easy transition back to center lane. The wheel was pulling to the left and then would sort of hang up when I tried to return to center lane. Each time it went left, when I tried to return to center lane it would over compensate and drift to the right. This shifting occurred throughout the ride home which is approximately 12 miles of turnpike at a speed of 70mph. I took the vehicle back right away and 2 more times after that, the last time the steering almost caused an accident at 70mph on the turnpike. I contacted the dealership and they again said vehicle is in tolerance and nothing can be done. I contacted Consumer Affairs for Nissan and they also could not help, since the dealership said the vehicle is in tolerance. Other family members have driven and confirm my fears that the vehicle is not safe.
