Maxima 6-cyl

  • 60,000 miles
Our confirmation for earlier complaint is : 10628840 since we bought the car, it is an on going problem. We had engine light and suspension problem. While driving car some times starts wavering and jumping. Also gets very difficult to control the steering. Many of the Nissan places have charged us a healthy amount of money but the problem stays the same. Can not be driven on highways. I have submitted all the documents with the previous complaint. Please advise and help us. Thank you

Maxima 6-cyl

  • 99,000 miles
Car completely looses all power steering and brakes, with no driver and or passenger recourse but to escape the vehicle before a car comes up behind you. 93 complaints seen on line with the same problem. Seems I saw other Nissan Maxima owners in those complaints to Nissan petition that had 2001 2002 and 2003. The ignition coil wires are being replaced and sometimes the ignition module. Takes a lot of money to find out what it is and the cost to fix is usually 600 to more than 1000 dollars, not to mention all the things replaced trying to figure out what it is. All coil wires have to be replaced as the diagnostic test wont show which cylinder it is, when driving all loss of RPM then stops suddenly with no steering because it locks up.
