Consumer Description

PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE FLOOR PANS, DUE TO RUST/CORROSION HAVE FAILED. THIS APPEARS FROM ON LINE RESOURCES TO HAVE BEEN A MANUFACTURING FLAW OF 2002 - 2006 ALTIMAS. A RUSTED THROUGH FLOOR PAN CERTAINLY AFFECTS THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE CAR AS WELL AS THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGERS. ROAD OBJECTS OR PASSENGERS FEET COULD EASILY PUNCTURE THROUGH WHAT IS REMAINING OF THE FLOOR BOARDS. IRONICALLY, I REMEMBER HAVING AN ISSUE SIMILAR TO THIS ON A 1979 CHEVETTE. I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT ENGINEERING AND MANUFACTURING PROCESS WOULD HAVE ELIMINATED SUCH A DESIGN FLAW IN MORE RECENT AUTOS. WHILE THE VEHICLE IS OLDER SUCH A SUBSTANTIAL FAILURE IN SUB BODY STRUCTURE SHOULD NOT OCCUR.
