I just purchased this vehicle. The dashboard gives a reflection on the windshield. It is a visibility hazard. The dashboard is very sticky, like it's melting in the sun.

Not sure what is goiNg I have spent so Much money replaciNg parts on this car. And it is still not fixed. It-??s one thing after Another. I cannot fight out why the engine light is on its like the whole care is malfunctioning. And no one knows what it is. And heavy smoke From tail pipe. While driving it feels Like It Wants to StAll like the gas gets stuck. I was told To buy a control module but it didn-??t need that. And I can-??t Afford To Keep trying to Fix it. It-??s my only Car and I-??m A non working single Mom trying my Best to fix it. But this car is Causing So Much depression I don-??t know what else to do. Because it-??s costing too much and times is already hard.

Electrical and ac failure, spent a lot of money and couldn't really afford to spend bc I was trying to get my ac repaired and no ine can figure out what the problem is. The warm weather is approaching and I cannot have my self and my child sweating bullets again this year. Purchased a new ac compressor, new ac condenser and had the ac charged still not fix to it. Have several people check for leaks ect and ac compressor doesn't even kick in at all and no one knows why.

The dashboard melting is causing extreme glare on the entire windshield and difficult to see during the day out of windshield so it's affecting my driving ability. And everything is sticking to it and it's destroying the other parts in my vehicle it is melting on too. I have sun visor on everytime out of the vehicle but stickiness is always there and continues to melt regardless.

The car loses power as I'm driving, I replaced alternator and fuel pump I'm at around $1100 in with repairs and labor. The problem still exist I turn car on and drive within 10 mins the car loses power and acceleration then eventually dies. This happened on the highway on one occasion, very frustrating and scary to say the least. It's not the battery cuz it's also new. This is getting scary and ridiculous.

I was driving on the hwy, no vehicles around me, and it was a sunny day, I heard what sounded like a gun shot. I pulled over and my moon roof over the driver seats exploded out. The glass flew off my car. About a week and a half later as I was driving on the interstate, my moon roof in the backseat exploded out, causing all the glass to fly off the car. Now my whole tempered glass is shattered. Thankfully at the time of the glass exploding, I was the only one in the vehicle. But the day my rear moon roof exploded I had to pick up my kids. I was only driving 20-25 mph and the shards of glass kept dropping on me and my kids (from the wind blowing the fabric) my oldest daughter got glass stuck in her as well.

My car keeps losing power after driving it for awhile. I had a new alternator and battery installed. It continues to lose power and starts up after a few hours. This is unsafe and very scary.

My dashboard is melting. It has been like this for a very long time and nothing will fix it, as it is simply a problem with the way it was made. I have looked it up and I am not the only one with this problem. Many other people with a Nissan Maxima or a Nissan Altima have melting dashboards. Texas heat, along with many other states, is damaging our dashboards. Not only is it melting, but it breaks and cracks if you touch it. If a fingernail touches it, it creates an indention. I have many spots on my dashboard where pieces have fallen completely off. Not only is it breaking, but it is also very very sticky. It is hard to clean. The worst part is that it causes a glare and it is very dangerous to drive. Since it is so sticky, the sun reflects and causes a glare on the windshield. It makes it very hard to see and it is very dangerous.

Multiple instances of the escl (electronic steering column lock) failing. Nissan is offering to replace free of charge for vehicles with certain VIN numbers (NHTSA #10119190, Nissan campaign id PC516). However, Nissan has stated that my VIN# is not part of the program. Nissan has also told me that the NHTSA set the parameters for the voluntary service campaign, and they are unable to explain why my car is not included in the program. I would like to know if it is true the NHTSA set the VIN# parameters for this program, and if so why my car, which has had this problem multiple times, is not included. If it is not true that the NHTSA set the parameters, what are the potential liabilities Nissan faces in blaming the problem on the NHTSA. This is an extremely dangerous problem that has left me stranded on multiple occasions..it happens without warning, and has potential to strand drivers in potentially harmful situations.

Dashboard melting very sticky and shiny, very hard to see out of windshield when sun glares off dashboard.
- Port Richey, FL, USA
My 2009 Nissan Maxima has a cracked and melting dashboard. The result of this is that the sunlight causes an extreme glare on the windshield that makes visibility almost impossible on sunny days. A biker or pedestrian could be crossing the street in front of me and I would not know it due to only seeing the glare on the windshield. I have contacted Nissan Consumer Affairs about this and they were nothing but rude the entire time. They said there are no known defects with it and they don't believe it is an issue. I told them that I cannot see and it is an extremely big issue and they disagree. I even offered to pay towards the cost of a new dashboard and they said they aren't going to do anything about it. There seems to be nothing else I can do at this point and it is only a matter of time before an accident occurs due to the blinding reflection from the dash.
