NHTSA Complaint #10731572 — 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA

I BROUGHT MY CAR TO FIRESTONE TO HAVE NUMEROUS REPAIRS DONE ON MY CAR 6/27/15-6/30/15. WHILE THEY HAD THE CAR UP ON THE LIFT, THE TECH NOTICED AND TOLD ME THAT MY FLOOR BOARDS ARE RUSTING OUT AND HE COULD SEE CLEAR THROUGH TO MY CARPETING. MY WINDOWS HAVE BEEN REPEATEDLY GETTING DIRTY FROM THE INSIDE AND I COULD NEVER FIGURE OUT WHY. I HAVE ASTHMA AND I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE FUMES THAT ARE ENTERING MY VEHICLE. THIS NOW EXPLAINS WHY I FEEL THE NEED TO USE MY INHALER MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN I'M IN MY CAR OR GETTING OUT OF MY CAR ON SHORTER TRIPS. FOR INSTANCE, I HAVE A 1.5 MILE RIDE TO THE TRAIN FOR MY COMMUTE TO WORK. BY THE TIME I GET TO THE TRAIN, I'LL NEED TO USE MY INHALER AGAIN ALREADY. MY CAR IS PAID OFF. I HAD PLANNED TO KEEP THIS CAR AS LONG AS I POSSIBLY COULD SO I CAN PAY DOWN DEBT. ALSO, I HAD JUST THIS PAST WEEKEND SPENT AROUND $700 IN REPAIRS ON MY CAR. I'VE TAKEN VERY GOOD CARE OF MY CAR (I.E., REGULAR OIL CHANGES, TIRE ROTATION, ETC.). I JUST WANT NISSAN TO FIX THE PROBLEM SO I CAN KEEP MY CAR. OTHER THAN THIS ISSUE, I LOVE MY CAR. I'VE HAD VERY FEW MINOR PROBLEMS WITH IT OVER THE YEARS AND I'M OVERALL VERY HAPPY WITH IT, EXCEPT FOR THIS ISSUE. I HOPE YOU CAN GET THEM TO HELP EVERYONE SIMILARLY SITUATED...UPDATED 09/03/15 *BF UPDATED 11/06/2017*CN
