NHTSA Complaint #10150619 — 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA

WE PURCHASED OUR 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA 3 WEEKS AGO. AS OF TODAY THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 2 TIMES, AND IS CURRENTLY HAVING PROBLEMS. IT WILL BE TAKEN BACK MONDAY AND HOPEFULLY WILL RECEIVE A NEW CAR. IT ALL STARTED WHEN ONE DAY I WAS DRIVING AND THE LOCKS ON THE DOORS STARTED LOCKING AND UNLOCKING BY THEMSELVES, THE WINDOWS WOULDN'T ROLL DOWN AND WHEN I GOT HOME I WASN'T ABLE TO TURN MY KEY IN THE IGNITION. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES OF TRYING TO HOLD DOWN THE LOCK MANUALLY IN ORDER TO GET OUT OF MY CAR, I FINALLY TIMES IT RIGHT BEFORE THE LOCK SLAPPED BACK AND WAS ABLE TO ESCAPE. WE TOOK IT IN THE SHOP WHERE IT REMAINED FOR 6 DAYS. WE GOT IT BACK AND A FEW DAYS LATER THE HAZARD LIGHTS STOPPED WORKING, THE CENTER CONSOLE LIGHTS WOULDN'T LIGHT UP, AND ONE OF THE VENTS WOULDN'T TURN. THEY TOOK IT BACK IN FOR A DAY AND WE TOOK IT BACK HOME. IT WORKED PROPERLY FOR A DAY UNTIL THE LOCKS STARTED ACTING UP AGAIN. WE'VE HAD IT WITH THIS CAR. IT'S BEEN IN THE SHOP MORE THAN ITS BEEN WITH US, AND WE'VE ONLY OWNED IT 3 WEEKS. WE PAID $32K FOR A ROTTEN EGG AND WE'RE TIRED OF GETTING THE RUN AROUND. *JB
