2012 NISSAN ALTIMA Structurebody Problems

I have owned this vehicle for over ten years and now there is paint delamination on the hood and roof of the vehicle which is a manufacture defect.

The hood latch is defective and the hood can not close properly.

While driving at 70mph on interstate the hood flew open with no known explanation as to why as hood had not been opened by anyone in the last 120 days prior to incident. This caused hood to snap back, strike and smash windshield and significantly dent roof of car in front of moonroof.

MY 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA'S SUNROOF IS LEAKING, WHETHER DRIVING OR PARKED. I HAVE HAD THE DRAINS CLEANED, THE HEADLINER REMOVED AND STILL HAVE THIS ISSUE. UPON RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM IT SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM ON INFINITI'S AND NISSAN'S SINCE 2003. THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE FIXED BY NISSAN, BEING IT'S AN ONGOING ISSUE IN ALL MODELS. I HAVE SPENT HUNDRED'S OF DOLLARS TRYING TO HAVE THIS CORRECTED.

MY DASHBOARD APPEARS TO BE MELTING AND IS STICKY TO THE TOUCH. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN THEY SHOW NO CONCERN AS TO THE DASH BOARD MELTING OR ANY RESOLVE TO REMEDY THE ISSUE. IT CAUSES A BAD GLARE ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING INTO THE SUNLIGHT. I FEEL THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT IN MATERIALS.

ALL 4 OF MY DOOR ACTUATORS ARE SUDDENLY NOT WORKING. THIS IS SAFETY HAZARD. NISSAN NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE WITH A POSSIBLE RECALL. ALL 4 SHOULD NOT GO BAD AT ONCE.

FLASHING SEATBELT SIGN RELATING TO PASSENGER SIDE. ALSO WHEN IT RAINS BOTH FRONT AND BACK DOORS ARE FILL WITH WATER. WHEN DRIVING WATER CAN BE HEARD SWOOSHING. AFTERWARD TO RELIEVE THE NOISE, I HAVE TO PICK UP THE RUBBER AT THE BASE OF THE DOORS AND WATER WILL RAN OUT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA. DUE TO THE GLARE OF THE SUN, THE CONTACT OBSERVED THAT THE DASHBOARD WOULD MELT AND BECOME VERY STICKY.

I HIT A DEER HEAD ON@ 40 MPH, THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY

THE BACK DOORS OF THESE CARS ARE TAKING IN WATER WHEN IT RAINS OR WHEN YOU GO TO CAR WASH.. AS YOU DRIVE YOU COULD HEAR THE WATER SLOSHING IN THE DOORS. YOU HAVE TO ACTUALLY OPEN THE DOOR AND USE YOUR HANDS BY PICKING THE RUBBER AT THE BOTTOM OF THE DOORS TO LET THE WATER OUT. THEN IT GUSHES OUT LIKE AN OPEN FAUCET.

LEAKING SUNROOF. WHEN WE GET A HEAVY RAIN, WATER LEAKS THROUGH THE SUNROOF ON THE PASSENGER SIDE.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A 4 CAR PILE UP ON THE HIGHWAY. MY AIRBAG DID NOT GO OFF ON IMPACT AND WAS ABOUT 30-40 SEC. DELAYED. AIRBAG DEPLOYED WHEN I WAS UNBUCKLING MY SEATBELT AND GETTING OUT OF THE CAR. MOST OF MY INJURIES WERE CAUSED BY THE AIRBAG. CAR WAS TOTALED I'M MAKING THIS REPORT IN CASE SOMEONE PURCHASES CAR AT AUCTION AND ONLY REPLACES DRIVER AIRBAG HOPEFULLY THEY WILL CHECK CURTAIN AIRBAGS FOR DEFECTS AS WELL SO SOMEONE ELSE DOESN'T GET HURT.

FLOOR BOARDS ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSAGE SIDE ARE VERY SOFT .

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE LISTED ON 9/23/14. I RECENTLY FOUND OUT AFTER GETTING A CARFAX REPORT THAT THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN FLIPPED WHILE IN LA. I AM TRYING TO FIND OUT IF THE TITLE FOR THE CAR HAS BEEN A "REBUILT TITLE OR "SALVAGED TITLE" AND CAN'T SEEN TO GET ANYMORE. HELP PLEASE! *TR

THE HOOD RELEASE ON THESE CARS IS DOWN UNDER THE DASH, WHERE IT CAN EASILY BE PULLED WITH THE TOE OF YOUR SHOE. IT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE, BUT MY WIFE WAS OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AND HEARD IT POP. THIS DAY, WE WERE ON OUR WAY HOME FROM CHURCH. MADE IT ALL THE WAY ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND REACHED 70 MPH, SPEED LIMIT ON THAT HIGHWAY IS 75 MPH. THE HOOD FLEW UP, DAMAGING THE WINDSHIELD, ROOF, HOOD, FENDERS AND HOOD HINGES. THIS IS VERY DISTURBING THAT THE 2013'S ARE BEING RECALLED WHEN THE DESIGN IS THE SAME FROM 2012 TO 2014 THAT I AM AWARE OF. WE HAVE BEEN WARNING OTHER DRIVERS OF THIS DANGER. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 30 YEARS AND HAVE EMERGENCY VEHICLE TO 18 WHEELER TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE. NOT EVERYONE WILL BE SO LUCKY. *TR

PURCHASED MY 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA COUPE 8/2/2012. IN JUST OVER 30 DAYS THE PAINT WAS COMING OFF THE REAR BUMPER ON BOTH SIDES NEAR THE REAR TIRE WHERE THE BUMPER MEETS THE BODY OF THE CAR. TOOK THE CAR IN TO HAVE THE BUMPER REPAINTED. WITHIN 60 DAYS THE PAINT WAS COMING OFF IN THE SAME PLACE AGAIN. TOOK THE CAR BACK LAST MONTH AND WAS REPAINTED WITH 3 FLAWS...NEEDLESS TO SAY IT HAS TO GO BACK YET AGAIN!! ALSO, WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF PURCHASE I NOTICED THAT THE RADIO WOULD NOT PICK UP LOCAL RADIO STATIONS WITHOUT A LOT OF STATIC AND INTERFERENCE. ONLY 1 OUT OF 12 PRESETS DO I GET ON A CONSISTENT BASIS AND I ONLY DRIVE WITHIN A 25-30 MILE RADIUS OF MY HOME. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE WINDOW TINT. GAVE THEM INFORMATION FROM 3M THAT...

AS DRIVER WAS BRAKING UPON ENTERING A PARKING SPOT AT A LOCAL STORE, CAR SURGED FORWARD AND JUMPED A CURB HITTING A RED BOX VIDEO DISPLAY. *TR
