As I was driving on a highway, my sunglasses and light compartment on my roof completely fell out of my roof in front of my windshield view. I contacted Nissan and they stated that they could do absolutely nothing for me. Did not have any concerns regarding the fact that it almost caused me to get into an accident as it came swinging right in front of me and almost hit me and my head. This is also a very common issue when you look it up online with these vehicles.

The system that-??s got the issue is the backup camera. When I-??m backing up periodically, all of a sudden it-??ll go black or really dim to where I-??m not able to see anything. I never know when it-??s going to go black or dim, but it will happen when I-??m backing up. I noticed that there was a recall while looking at credit carma. It stated that it had a recall, but when I called the Nissan customer service, I was told my car doesn-??t have any recalls. My car has this same issue, but for some reason my car wasn-??t included in the recall, when it should-??ve been. I feel that this is a hazard for me, but yet for some reason Nissan doesn-??t think so, since my vehicle wasn-??t included in that recall. I don-??t have any pictures because I don-??t know when or where it may happen-?" for instance out shopping when I-??m backing into a parking space using my camera it-??ll go black or really dim. Then this scars me because I-??m in the middle of backing and not knowing how close I-??ve gotten to the vehicle behind me.

When backing up, often times my rear camera screen goes black and I-??m unable to see anything. It is not consistent and sometimes it appears to be distorted like a tv channel trying to clear. There have been no accidents and the most recent incident was on 1/3/24. I see there is a recall for cars as early as 2019 for the same issue, however, my 2018 vehicle is experiencing the same thing.

I was riding down the road and the interior overhead dome light just fell out and was hanging. It was hanging right by my head. I researched this issue and it seems to be a REGULAR occurrence in these cars and the dealer wanted to charge me to fix it even though I have a warranty.

- Danville, VA, USA

When pressing the brakes the push button does not start the car. The car also will not shift from park to drive even if the brakes are pressed. There are no warning lights and the problem has been -??fixed-?? once by a Nissan dealership already but it is a recurring issue. This problem is ongoing since October 2022

Battery cables corrosion is awful. I have replaced my battery three times since buying this car in 2018

My transmission began shuddering then next couple days when I put the car in reverse it would stick and when I put it in drive it would hesitate to move. Then when it did move it wouldn-??t get up to at least 55 miles per hour. Took it to Nissan, put it on the rack ($170) test indicated that transmission was shot

The brake light switch fails which will not allow me to start vehicle with push start. Already replaced switch once while vehicle under warranty. Now around 60,000 miles it started failing intermittently. I have been stranded numerous times, sometimes in dangerous situations with car not starting. I have been stranded in parking lots in bad neighborhoods and in airport parking lots. There is no alternative to starting the car without engaging the brake, so when this switch fails you have no way to start vehicle. You get no warnings that it has failed or to tell what the problem is. I have spoken with dealer and described what vehicle is doing and they agree that the problem is the brake light switch again.

The front end collision warning goes off less than a mile after I begin driving. It was repaired after an accident (unrelated) & was fine until my state had snowfall that covered the road, that's when it began again! my cruise control suddenly stopped working & the metal piece that props up the hood snapped off when checking the oil, luckily I seen it snap and was able to jump back! gear shift sticks in park & sometimes even with my foot on the bake it wont start!

Low beam headlights are not effective in seeing at night. Known issues in Nissan Altima models where headlight assembly reflective parts becomes foggy and distorted/melts due build up of heat from halogen light bulbs located in the assembly. Creates dangerous road conditions not only for the driver but for others as well. Nissan continues to ignore the ongoing issues and has yet to issue an alternative to correct the problem.

Basically I was at the store came out to go home and the car would not start then after a while it started up but then when I went to drive it again it was giving me a hard time to start and after I waited a while and tried again it started up but would not switch gears out of park at all and it has been an ongoing problem I went to Nissan and when I got there they told me to change the key fobs in which I did and it started up with no problem but after a few weeks the same problem has happened then it fees like the vehicle stalls to drive off when you press the gas. And when it wouldn't start it kept showing my brake pedal and key fob together. I was parked in a parking lot and actually had to end up calling my road side assistance to have the vehicle towed because it wouldn't start up and there are no warning lights or anything coming up on my dashboard ok top of that I just had the battery, alternator, transmission and engine checked at Nissan and they said there was nothing wrong

Since I purchased this 2018 Altima (I had previously driven a 2016 Altima without aeb), I have gotten false positives from the front sensor, stopping my car at random times in clear day light traffic, on dry pavement, with no leaves or other road debris. Front sensor has continuously reported the "front sensor not available" alert multiple times in my cars short lifetime, followed by the crash icon at random times of the days, and all speeds including in the stopped position. The sensor goes out regardless or whether there are other vehicles around. I reported these issues beginningin October 2018 (the same month I purhcased my car). No Nissan vehicle should be equipped with the technology where driver's had no clue when the vehicles will come to a halt and lock without warning. This commonly happens when there are cars around me and there is a change in speed (anticipated or nto), which is common in la. My front sensor has malfunctioned several times and engaged the brakes, several times while driving on the freeway at 50mph. My car also seems to lug at times when I brake from a distance and normally which concerns me. I have reported this issues to technicians and had the brakes checked with no problems found so I have had no choice but to wait for the issues with my brakes and car to compile. The owner's manual admits aeb systems do "not function in all driving, traffic, weather, and road conditions" but the manual leaves out the part about how the systems can cause vehicles to suddenly stop even when no objects are in the driving lane. I originally reported this issue to steve yaeger on October 19, 2018--the same month I purchased the vehicle. Have brought in my vehicle into to Nissan various times in the first 3 months but technicians always told me there is nothing they can do and just shake off my concerns/try to give explanations.
