NHTSA Complaint #10808079 — 2015 NISSAN ALTIMA

CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW IN LATE APRIL 2015. WHEN I OPENED THE TRUNK OF THE VEHICLE FOR THE FIRST TIME, I NOTICED THERE WAS RUST IN THE SPOT WELDS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE TRUNK. FRONT BUMPER ALSO STARTED TO POP OUT ON BOTH SIDES AFTER DRIVING IT THE FIRST DAY AND IS RUBBING AND PEELING PAINT FROM FRAME OF VEHICLE. REAR WINDSHIELD WAS PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT WITH A LARGE GAP TO THE RIGHT. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. FRONT FASCIA MISALIGNED FROM FACTORY AND RUST EATING AWAY AT MAIN FRAME OF VEHICLE DESPITE THERE BEING NO SCRATCHES OR DAMAGE TO VEHICLE. BOTH SIDE SKIRTS MISALIGNED. ALL DOORS SIGNIFICANTLY MISALIGNED FROM FACTORY. POWER STEERING WHINES AND TRANSMISSION GROANS AND SHIFTS ERRATICALLY. CAR DOES NOT DRIVE STRAIGHT AT SPEEDS 55+ AND WANDERS BETWEEN LANES. IT TAKES MUCH EFFORT TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT. TRUNK LID NOT ALIGNED PROPERLY. BBB MANDATED NISSAN TO REPURCHASE VEHICLE AND BRAND IT AS A LEMON DUE TO SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECTS & NON-CONFORMITIES. NISSAN FAILED TO FIX REAR WINDSHIELD AFTER ONE ATTEMPT AND FAILED TO FIX OTHER ISSUES AFTER 3 REPAIR ATTEMPTS. CAR HAS BEEN AT DEALERSHIP FOR 28+ DAYS. NISSAN FAILED TO CALCULATE CORRECT REPURCHASE NUMBERS AND NISSAN STILL REFUSES TO FIX VEHICLE. AFTER MY PROTESTING, NISSAN REPAIRED REAR WINDSHIELD BUT STRUCTURALLY, THE REST OF THE CAR REMAINS A SAFETY ISSUE. AN INVESTIGATION SHOULD BE LAUNCHED. I REQUEST NHSTA TO INSPECT THE QUALITY AND BUILD OF THIS VEHICLE AS IT ENDANGERS MY SAFETY AND THOSE OF OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME. I AM STILL IN POSSESSION OF THIS VEHICLE.
