2014 NISSAN ALTIMA Engine Problems

MY VEHICLE STOPPED ON THE HIGHWAY IN A BUSY EVENING TRAFFIC. FOR 10 MINUTES I WAS NOT ABLE TO DO, BUT SIT IDLE. AFTER THAT CAR STARTED BUT IT WAS JUDDERING AND SHAKING EVERY TIME I USED TO STOP AT RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. THE VIBRATIONS WERE VERY VIOLENT AND SCARY. EVEN, IN NEUTRAL, CAR ENGINE REVS UP TO 2K-3K RPM WITHOUT ACCELERATING. NISSAN COMPANY AND DEALER ARE NOT HELPING AND PUTTING MY LIFE IN DANGER AS I COULD HAVE GOT HIT BY ANOTHER CAR/ TRAILER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, IT SURGED FORWARD AND THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL DEALER (SUPERIOR NISSAN OF CONWAY, 1090 COLLIER DRIVE, CONWAY, AR 72032), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS BEING INVESTIGATED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 41,000. *TT CONSUMER STATED SUPERIOR NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN CONWAY, ARKANSAS INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND COULD NOT GET IT TI TURN OFF. THEY SAID IT WAS SAFE, WE TRADED IN. UPDATED 8/28/18*JB

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON TODAY. TOOK MY CAR TO BAKER NISSAN DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO PUT IT ON DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE. I WAS CHARGED $135. NO WORK WAS DONE SINCE I AM OUT OF WARRANTY AND EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY TOLD ME THE ENGINE WAS MISFIRING. TWO CODES APPEARED P0304 AND P0300. IN ORDER TO REPLACE 1 IGNITION COIL IT WAS $357 FOR PARTS AND LABOR. TO REPLACE ALL 4 IGNITION COILS AND SPARK PLUGS IT IS $1023.

MY NISSAN ALTIMA 2014 ENGINE CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE DRIVING ON VA 286 INTERSTATE 66 W EXIT TOWARD FRONT ROYAL FOR MERGING ONTO I-66 W VIRGINIA. LUCKILY I GOT OUT SAFELY. I SAW SMOKE COME UP FROM UNDER THE HOOD SO SHUT THE ENGINE OFF, SO I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE. THEN A FLAME CAME UP AND I RAN OUT OF THE CAR. WITHIN A MATTER OF SECONDS THE WHOLE CAR WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES AND IS DESTROYED 75% AND I HARDLY SAVED MY LIFE BUT LOST LAPTOP, MOBILES, BABY CAR SEAT, STROLLER AND OTHER PERSONAL STUFF. WE LOST OUR CAR WHICH COSTED US $22,000.00 EVEN ENGINE WAS UNDER 5 YEAR WARRANTY WHICH CAUSED A REASON OF FIRE BUT NISSAN IS NOT READY TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY OF ITS PRODUCT EVEN THEIR PRODUCT WILL TAKE YOUR LIFE. WE STILL OWE TO BANK FOR NISSAN ALTIMA 2014. HELP US TO COVER...

MY CAR SHUT DOWN MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING IT TO WORK. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED TO NISSAN AND FIND A WAY TO WORK. NISSAN SAID THEY REPROGRAMMED THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND DIDNT BOTHER TO TELL ME THERE WAS A RECALL. WHEN I GOT IT BACK IT WAS WORSE THAN WHEN I TOOK IT IN THE FIRST TIME. IT IS UNPROFESSIONAL AND DANGEROUS FOR THEM NOT TO TELL ME ABOUT THE RECALL.

VEHICLE IS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA 4 CYLINDER MOTOR. IT RECENTLY HAD THE TRANSMISSION RECALL, DISGUISED AS A "CAMPAIGN" PERFORMED. IT WAS A SOFTWARE UPDATE. SINCE THEN, THE CAR UPSHIFTS WHILE DECELERATING, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STUMBLE & ALMOST STALL. IT IS SIMILAR TO THE TORQUE CONVERTER LOCKING UP & AFFECTING THE DRIVETRAIN. IF THE ENGINE STALLED, DRIVER WOULD LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE & MIGHT CRASH THE CAR. THE CAR IS IN MOTION WHEN IT HAPPENS ON A ROAD WHERE SPEEDS ARE ABOUT 50 MPH, WHICH IS ABOUT THE SPEED WE WERE DRIVING WHEN IT HAPPENED. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT OR IN MILD TURNS.

I PURCHASED VEHICLE IN 2014 AND I HAVE HAD ALL REQUIRED MAINTENANCE PERFORMED. I'M NOT AT 71K MILES AND HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING ABRUPT JERKING WHILE DRIVING. NISSAN HAS A RECALL TO REPROGRAM THE CVT. HOWEVER, THEY OFFERED EXTENDED WARRANTIES TO FEW CUSTOMERS AND NOT ALL OF US. THIS IS AN ONGOING COMPLAINT REGARDING THE CVT AND THE ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY CONSUMERS HAVE PAID...NOT TO MENTION THE INEVITABLE SAFETY RISK. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE AND NISSAN SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT ON MONDAY REGARDING THE RECALL...WHICH THEY DID NOT INFORM ME ABOUT UNTIL I CALLED ABOUT MY CAR 2 DAYS AGO. NOT TO MENTION ANOTHER RECALL FOR THE AIRBAG, THAT I FOUND OUT ABOUT ONLINE. THEY ARE NOT COMMUNICATING WITH THEIR CUSTOMERS AT ALL.

ENGINE SHOULD'VE SHUT OFF OR GIVE WARNING SIGN THAT OIL FROM THE OIL FILLER CAME OUT ANDSPLATTERED ALL OVER ENGINE CAUSING A ENGINE FIRE WHICH COULD'VE INJURED OR KILLED SOMEONE THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE SOMEONE MUST'VE LEFT THE OIL FILLER CAP OFF OR DIDN'T TIGHTEN CAP,ALL MECHANICS TOLD ME THE CAR SHOULD'VE SHUT OFF OR WARNING LIGHT SHOULD'VE CAME ON. ALSO THE LOCATION OF OIL FILLER IS IN A BAD SPOT IT'S ON THE MIDDLE OF THE ENGINE WITH LOTS OF PLASTIC COVERS OVER ENGINE,MOST ENGINES THE OIL FILLER IS ON SIDE OF ENGINE SO OIL DOESN'T SPILL ON TOP OF ENGINE .THE ENGINE IS A 2.5 LITER ENGINE .THE ENGINE RUNS VERY HOT AND WITH ALL THE PLASTIC PARTS AND ANY OIL SPILLING IT CAN EASILY CATCH FIRE .I THINK NISSAN SHOULD INSTALL A OIL FILLER CAP SENSOR TO AVOID POTENTIAL ENGINE FIRES.CAR IS BEING REPAIRED NOW FROM INSURANCE CLAIM...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE SENSOR FOR THE CAMSHAFT FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

SINCE I HAVE HAD MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA IT HAS FACED SEVERAL MAJOR ISSUES SUCH HAS TWO TRANSMISSIONS REPLACEMENTS, NOW THE AC COMPRESSOR, THEN THE CAR DISPLAY SCREEN TURNED COMPLETELY PINK, AND OTHER NUMEROUS ISSUES THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN DOCUMENTED IN YOUR SYSTEM. PLEASE REFER BACK TO MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS THAT I HAVE SUBMITTED, MY SERVICE RECORDS FOR THE DEALERSHIP, AND SO FORTH FOR DOCUMENTATION PURPOSES. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT A CAR WITH ONLY 7 MILES ON IT WHEN PURCHASED SHOULD NOT HAVE ANY OF THESES ISSUES UNLESS IT WAS MANUFACTURED POORLY. I AM SO FED UP WITH DEALING WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND RUN AROUNDS FROM THE CORPORATION THAT I MAY HAVE TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION IF THIS ISSUE IS NOT RESOLVED IN A TIMELY MANNER.

MY CAR AS AT A STOP SIGN OFF A HIGHWAY. AS I TRIED TO EXCELERATE, THE CAR DIED. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK. I LET IT SIT FOR A SECOND, PUT IT IN DRIVE, IT MOVED LESS THAT A FOOT AND DIED. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO A SERVICE STATION WHERE THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY. ONE WEEK LATER I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY TRYING TO EXCELERATE AND THE CAR DIED, MID HIGHWAY, I PULLED OVER. GOT IT STARTED AND AFTER NOT HAVING ANY RESULTS AT MY NISSAN DEALER, MADE IT TO MY HOME WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A FAULTY TRANSMISSION. THE CAR IS A 2014 WITH 65 THOUSAND MILES AND NISSAN WILL NOT HELP

I HAVE TO MUCH THROBBLE WHIT MY CARR HARD TO START I HAVE MORE ONE MONTHY THE NOT RRUNIG

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AND ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE OVER 25 MPH, THERE WAS AN LOUD ABNORMAL NOISE AND THE VEHICLE VIBRATED UNCONTROLLABLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000.

SINCE THE FIRST WEEK WE OWNED THE CAR, OCCASIONALLY THE SCREEN(BACK UP CAM, RADIO...) DOESN'T START, OR FAILS WITHIN FIRST MILE OF DRIVING- MAYBE 10 TIMES SINCE PURCHASE DATE. ON JULY 29, 2015- MORNING- CAR UPON START, NO SCREEN AND NO DASHBOARD. RESTARTED TWICE AND THEN FINE. AT 9:30 P.M. SAME DAY-- CLOSE TO HOME, SIDE MIRROR FAILURE WARNING SHOWED ON DASH- AND A SUBSEQUENT FAILURE OF SYSTEMS- INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO- GPS, SCREEN, TURN SIGNALS, HEADLIGHTS,HAZARD LIGHTS, ALL DASH INFORMATION.

AAA DISABLED THE ELECTRICAL OPERATING THE FUEL PUMP. CAR TOWED TO COCHRAN...

WHEN IM IN TRAFFIC AND TRY TO SPEED UP THE CAR DOESN'T CHANGE GEARS. IVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER FOUR TIMES AND THEY DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. IT HAS HAPPENED TWO TIMES WITHIN THE LAST THREE DAYS, WHICH IS MORE FREQUENTLY THAN BEFORE. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. WHEN I STOP THE CAR COMPLETELY, LETS SAY AT A RED LIGHT, THEN PRESS THE GAS IT TAKES A FEW SECONDS FOR THE CAR TO EVEN START MOVING.

PURCHASED NEW 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA SL 3.5L AT APPROXIMATELY 2200 MILES WHEN ACCELRATING AT A STOP LIGHT THE VEHICLE JERKED (AS IF IT COULD NOT CHANGE GEARS), HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY AT FIRST. TOOK VEHICLE TO REPAIR SHOP AT 2 DEALERS IN 2 STATES WHO COULD NOT CAPTURE INFORMATION AT THAT TIME. BY 12000 MILES WHILE RETURNING FROM VACATION (1/4/2015) THE VEHICLE WAS UNDRIVEABLE. TOOK TO LOCAL DEALER AND NEEDED A COMPLETEE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. AT THIS TIME, VEHICLE WAS JERKING, MISSING GEARS, CHANGING GEARS INDEPENDENTLY, TRYING TO GO IN TO A LOWER GEAR WHILE BREAKED AT A STOP LIGHT AND ENGINE WOULD REV TO ACCELRATE, VEHICLE SHOOK, AND WAS LITERALLY DETERIORATING EACH MILE. TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED, AT APPROXIMATELY 14500 MILES, THE SAME VEHICLE SYMPTOMS HAVE BEGUN. TOOK TO DEALER WHILE TRAVELING, THEY WERE ABLE TO CAPTURE MINIMAL DATA BECAUSE AS THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO JERK AND SHAKE, THEIR BATTERY DIED IN THE...

2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE OIL LEAKS ISSUE. *SMD CONSUMER SENT ADDITIONAL CORRESPONDENCE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THERE WAS A SMELL OF HYDRO-CARBONS WHEN HE STARTED THE ENGINE. THE DIP STICK SHOWED A DROP OF AT LEAST 3/8 OF OIL ON THE DIP STICK. ALSO, THE AIR BAG ISSUE WAS NOT ADDRESS AND THE PLASTIC PROTECTING THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE FELL DOWN. *JB

SINCE I LEASED MY CAR IN MAY2014 I FORGOT TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF 4 TIMES . TWICE IT RAN ALL NIGHT IN MY GARAGE BUT FORTUNATELY THE GAS FUMES DID NOT ENTER MY HOUSE WHILE I WAS SLEEPING. I BELIEVE ITS BECAUSE I'M NOT USE TO THE KEYLESS IGNITION SYSTEM. AT FIRST I THOUGHT I MISTAKENLY STARTED THE ENGINE WITH THE REMOTE START CAPABILITY WHILE THE KEY WAS IN MY POCKET. I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO THE CAR DEALER AND AT MY REQUEST THEY DISENGAGED THE REMOTE START FEATURE ON THE VEHICLE, RECENTLY THE CAR WAS LEFT RUNNING ALL NIGHT FOR THE SECOND TIME SO I APPARENTLY FORGOT TO TURN IT OFF, I AM ELDERLY AND HARD OF HEARING AND CAN HARDLY HEAR THE ENGINE RUNNING, I WEAR A HEARING AID. IT RUNS VERY QUIETLY. ONCE I LOANED MY DAUGHTER THE CAR AND SHE ENCOUNTERED THE SAME PROBLEM OF...

PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT WITH BRAKE ON THE CAR ACCELERATED BY ITSELF AND JUMPED THE CURB. WHEN THE BACK TIRES BOUNCED OVER THE CURB THE CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING.

I HAVE NUMBER OF PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE - 2014 ALTIMA SL. SEVERAL TIMES AFTER STOP AND GO TRAFFIC THE TRANSMISSION STOPS SWITCHING GEARS (SPEEDS). IT GETS STUCK ON A FIRST GEAR EQUIVALENT IN CVT TRANSMISSION. THE FIX IS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, OBVIOUSLY THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS ON THE ROAD WHERE THERE ARE NO PLACES TO STOP. ANOTHER MAJOR PROBLEM IS A HEAD UNIT (NAVIGATION, RADIO, ETC). IT RESTARTS BY ITSELF NOW AND THAN, SOMETIMES RIGHT IN A MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY WHEN I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT EXIT TO TAKE AND I NEED THE GPS GUIDANCE. ITS ABSOLUTELY UNRELIABLE. I'M NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE SOFTWARE HERE THAT IS TERRIBLE, BY THE WAY, BUT IN ANY SITUATION IT SHOULD NOT RESTART BY ITSELF! ANOTHER PROBLEM, AS MENTIONED BY OTHERS, IS MILEAGE. I GET MUCH LESS MILES AS ADVERTISED! THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST NISSAN!...

VEHICLE IS DRIVEN SEVERAL MILES SO THE ENGINE IS WARM. THREE TIMES THE CAR HAS STALLED WHEN STOPPING AT A LIGHT OR SLOWING AT AN INTERSECTION TO MAKE A LEFT TURN. WHEN MOVING FROM THE WAITING POSITION THE CAR WILL STALL AND AS AN ONCOMING CAR IS COMING POSES A LEFT THREATENING SITUATION AS IT WILL NOT MOVE FORWARD IMMEDIATELY. CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP 2 TIMES AND BOTH TIMES NOTHING SHOWS ON THE COMPUTER. ALSO, THE CAR WAS DRIVEN THE LAST TIME AND THE STALL IS NOT REPLICATED. BECAUSE THE PROBLEM IS NOT REPLICATED NISAAN REFUSES TO ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR ALTHOUGH A LIFE IS IN JEOPARDY DUE TO THE DANGER OF MAKING A LEFT HAD TURN IN FRONT OF TRAFFIC WHEN THERE IS AMPLE TIME TO MAKE THE TURN. I HAVE SPOKEN TO THE NATIONAL OFFICE AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING...

I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA S ON 7/20/14. ON 9/17/14 MY CEL BEGAN FLASHING, CAR SHAKING & LOSING POWER AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY (WHICH IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION WITH NO SHOULDERS TO PULL OVER ON). BROUGHT CAR TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY TRIED TO FIRST TELL ME THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY ISSUE. I FORCED THEM TO CONTINUE TESTING & IT HAPPENED AGAIN & THEY WERE ABLE TO PULL 2 ERROR CODES (MISFIRE & MULTIPLE MISFIRE). AFTER A WEEK OF DRIVING MY CAR AND TESTING, THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX IT. I OPENED A CASE AT THAT TIME TO REQUEST A BUY BACK OR REPLACEMENT OF THIS VEHICLE AS IT IS CLEAR THAT SOMETHING WAS DONE WRONG ON THE ASSEMBLY LINE & SAFETY OF VEHICLE HAS BEEN COMPROMISED. ON 9/26/14, THE DEALERSHIP CALLED AND TOLD ME TO PICK UP MY CAR AS THEY...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN LEAK COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN REPLACED THE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE AUTHORIZED DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED NO REMEDY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

THE WHOLE EXHAUST SYSTEM FROM THE ENGINE ALONG TO THE REAR OF THIS CARS EXHAUST TIPS IS RUSTING AWAY ALREADY! SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS SAY ITS NORMAL! *TR

WHEN I TURN THE IGNITION NOTHING HAPPENS. ALL I HEAR IS A CLICK WHERE THE CAR IS TRYING TO IGNITE. AFTER TRYING SEVERAL TIMES IT FINALLY CRANKS UP AND START. I'VE HAD THE BATTERY CHECKED AND HAVE TAKEN IT TO NISSAN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND BOTH CAME BACK NEGATIVE. NOT SURE WHAT THE PROBLEM BUT IT IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENT NOW SINCE THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED IN NOVEMBER 2013 AND AGAIN IN APRIL 2014. IF THE ISSUE ISN'T SHOWING UP AFTER PAYING $85 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AT NISSAN, I WONDER IF OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE. *TR

ON THE WAY TO GET A CUP OF COFFEE (LESS THAN ONE MILE FROM MY HOME) A CAR STARTED COMING INTO MY LANE. I SWERVED SLIGHTLY TO AVOID A COLLISION AND MY CAR WENT INTO THE DITCH AND HIT A TELEPHONE POLE. OVER $22,000 IN DAMAGE. RADIATOR BENT INTO AN "L" SHAPE. SIDE FRAMES AND ENGINE WENT INTO THE FIREWALL, WHICH TOTALED THE CAR COMPLETELY. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH NISSAN CORP. AIR BAG SAFETY ENGINEER, DEALERSHIP OWNER, GENERAL MANAGER, SALES MANAGER AND THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS $22,000 DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END AND NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. OFFICER SAID DRIVER AIRBAG AND SIDE CURTAIN AND IN SEAT AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE ALSO DEPLOYED. THEY DIDN'T AND I WAS ALMOST KILLED. THE CAR WAS ONLY 2 MONTHS OLD, NO MODIFICATIONS, AND VERY LOW MILES. KIRO7 TV IN SEATTLE EVEN DID TWO STORIES ON THE CRASH AND AIRBAGS NOT...
