2017 NISSAN ALTIMA Unknown Or Other Problems

My CVT transmission has been replaced three times by Nissan. I am currently on the third CVT transmission and it has failed requiring a fourth CVT transmission replacement. I was in a few different situations each time the trasmission failed that were unsafe. I've been at intersections, trying to accelerate forward when the stop light turns green causing me to stop in the middle of intersections or accelerate slowly through the intersection which is very dangerous. I've been on the highway going normal highway speeds over 60mph when I would lose power and try to keep my speed and my car would stay in the 15mph - 40mph, having to turn my hazard lights on so other drivers know I'm having issues accelerating. The first time I took my car to the dealership, they could not recreate the issue after having my vehicle for 30 days. I received my car...

The 2017 Nissan Altima has a delay in acceleration when the gas pedal is pressed. I couldn't accelerate pass 35-40 mph when I was driving. Thankfully it was bumper to bumper traffic.

Transmission

A few months ago, while at a stop light my car would not acceleration, I depressed the pedal all the way to the floor and there was no movement but rpm’s went up to 4000. I was almost rear ended as I was attempting to go. The car suddenly accelerated at a high rate of speed and drove normal. This occurrence happened intermittently a couple times, and is really dangerous while making left hand turns and almost being hit in the intersection. I took it to a shop to get a diagnostic but the mechanic said that since there was no check engine light or codes he’d “just be guessing.” I have been driving the car for sometime now without any issues. Last week I went an hour out of town and my car suddenly loss power on the highway while going 70 mph. It decelerated to 40 mph and...

When I push the start button my car sometimes won't start and it won't go in drive. There has not been any warning lamps, messages or symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. It started about 2 weeks ago, it doesn't always happen, but it's happening more frequently now. I had an emergency yesterday and I couldn't get my car started. After waiting about 10 minutes I was able to get it started, but I was afraid if I turned the car off it wouldn't start again. The problem has not been inspected by the dealership or confirmed by an independent service center. I'm interested in seeing if there has been a recall for this problem

My car is we don't have any problems

Mass airflow sensor and traction control light coming on . Second Nissan vehicle to do this.

Sun visor part number 96401-9HT2A needs replaced and Nissan has not had any available for this past year.

My Nissan was bought Used. It has no damages and it drives well. I was told it was in an accident that affected the right side. The doors were replaced.

Was driving and when we stopped and was ready to pull out the car wouldn’t move. The gas pedal was all the way to the floor after several seconds it shot across the road a then wouldn’t get above 20 mph. The rpm gauge shot all the way, pegged out. Drove for a few miles and pulled over. Turned the car off and then it took off just fine. Shortly afterwards it bogged down again and would get over 20mph again. Something needs to be fixed right away

Transmission: this is the 2nd transmission in about 22,000 miles. Car will start to stall out and then high rev the rpm’s. This has caused significant power loss suddenly in traffic. Issue has been recreated by mechanic and has been inspected thoroughly. Previously transmission was rebuilt with the torque converter being replaced. No indicator lights have come on prior or during sudden loss, only check engine light once. Shutting off vehicle for approximately 5 or so minutes resolves the issue but only for a limited amount of time.

Check Engine light is on and has been diagnosed twice at different Nissan dealerships. Once the car stops, it hesitates to accelerate. I have to press the gas more than once and then it zooms off. Cleaning the Mass Air Flow Sensor and Throttle Body worked for 3 days and light went out. I am back were I started with slower acceleration than before. Today I drove with my emergency flashers, after cars started honking at me for not moving. I have 3 kids with me most of the time and fear being rear ended. The car is being towed back to the dealership since its no longer safe to drive. This is a Safety Hazard due to the possibility of being rear-ended.

The inspection i change lamps the head light 2023 this year my car Still no warning the police officer

When I am driving this vehicle, I get to a stop sign or red light or even stopping at a drive-through window and when I need to go the car will not accelerate I have to shut the car off and turn it back on to get it to accelerate and go. This keeps happening and is very dangerous especially when I have my children in the car. The car also has trouble shifting into gear and jerks when I get onto the hwy. The car dealership last year told me it was nothing that they could not locate any issue with the vehicle. No symptoms prior to failure of the car sometimes it does it and sometimes it doesn't

I experienced My 2017 Nissan Altima having a delay accelerating after I stop at lights then it took a couple of seconds of my foot pushing down on gas petal to get going with it taking off very fast! It happened 3 times in a 2 week timeframe, then on Sunday, 9/17/2023 my daughter was driving and I was the passenger and it happened 4 separate times in 1 hour! I took it into Nissan in Salem, NH , (where I purchased the vehicle), on 9/18/23 and it isn’t giving a Code so they say they can’t fix it until they get a code by replicating it! That is unacceptable because it happens sporadically so unless you give me a loaner car so they can drive it all the time that to see it happen. So right now my car is at that service place! I need a “loaner car”...

I got this car 2 weeks ago and 4 days after i got it, I was driving on the free way when it started lunging forward and slowing down. There was a car behind me that almost hit me because the car was malfunctioning. This problem caused danger to me and others on the road.

Nissan has a very serious safety concern that if not remedied I will have to take action elsewhere. My 2017 altima lags and sputters randomly. I was almost hit today when I turned from an intersection and the car slowed down in the middle of the intersection. I demand more information about this issue and how to fix it within reasonable price range. The dealer couldn't find a problem. This is a huge problem that could cost many people their lives and money I do not have right now.

Nissan of Cerritos knowingly and with malice sold me a defective car. The car has a delayed acceleration issue. It is the most helpless feeling to be in such danger everyday due to this ongoing CVT defect. My life and passenger lives is in danger because I never know when the issue will occur.

My car is periodically not accelerating at a stop when I push on the gas pedal.

On September 14, 2022 at about 7: 30 PM I attempted to shift from park to reverse and the gear shift would not move from park. I reset the park brake and released it once again thinking perhaps the brake did not fully release but it would not go into reverse. The gear shift was locked. I restarted the car and did everything I normally do and still nothing. I wiggled the shift after making sure I pressed the release lock on the shift at the same time and made sure the break was not the cause. Finally the shift released and I was able to put it into reverse. The next morning the same thing happened. I am taking it to the shop for an evaluation. My concern is that this situation is happening more than consumers are reporting and I suggest that NISSAN should look into having a...

Delay acceleration at stop sign/red light : car moves very slow after pressing the gas paddle, engine revs 3-4K. It is really a safety issue when it comes to left turns with incoming traffic. Car move slow after complete stop with pressed gas paddle.

My problem began about a year to a year and a half ago. When I come to a full stop, and I press the accelerator pedal down, the engine does not rev, the RPM’s do not go up and the car does not move for about 3-5 seconds, and then the car just starts accelerating rapidly all of a sudden. This problem has been persistent and very random. It has occured countless times and at first I thought oh, that’s weird, maybe the car was just on an incline but that was not the case because it kept happening over and over. This problem has become more persistent and it is very scary, as whenever I am trying to turn left at a green light at a busy intersection, there have been times that I was almost hit by an on-coming car because my car would just roll for about...

While driving down the highway at 70 mph, the transmission went out, no warning lights nothing. Vehicle RPM starting spiking then down to zero, engine sounded like it was in neutral, and the gas pedal being pushed. Got off the road and car would not go in drive or reverse, just stopped, had to have towed in. Cost $5000 to repair. Have owned many Altima’s and never a problem, this was awful.

After I am sitting in park or at a stop light my acceleration delays when I try to take off and gives an abrupt jolt to take off. It doesn’t happen all the time, but started in the last few months.

Since October 2021 I have been taking my car back and forth to the Nissan Dealer Bob Bell in Baltimore MD for a check engine light. They fix parts each time and the light still came back on . As of today this will be my 6th time taking the car back. I don’t feel safe driving it and don’t know if this light caused other issues that may put me and other drivers in immediate danger. I have anxiety that it may break down on the road while driving and I won’t have a way to get out of harms way. I don’t know what else to do. It’s my only means of transportation.

HOOD LATCH RECALL 2017 NISSAN ALTIMA SR- CAUSED ACCIENT AND TOTAL DAMAGE TO MY CAR!!! 1.24.22 my 18yr daughter was getting on the on ramp to interstate 75 south, accelerating to merge onto the interstate. The hood flies up, breaking the windshield, hitting the roof, where the interior light falls smacking my daughter in the face, causing her to veer off the road, where she took out a reflector on the side of the ramp, where it damaged my front end and the car then sliding to a crashing stop over a steel grate or utility box in the ground, where it snatched the under carriage apart- my car is totalled! I have since filed a claim with Nissan and gap insurance apprasier should come to the house tomorrow. I really feel like we need a lawyer. Please let me know your thoughts. I work nights at the hospital from...

Twice in one day, one hour apart, the xar would not accelerate, then accelrated wildly. First time, pulling onto a road from a stop, it hardly sped up, I put the pedal to the floor, and it did not increase speed as expected, in fact hardly at all. I was trying to merge with oncoming traffic so this would have caused a wreck if there wasn't as much space between me and the oncoming traffic. I kept trying to accelerate, pushing the pedal, letting it out, pushing it again, and it continued to not accelerate as expected. I then pulled off the road to let traffic pass and see if it revved in park, and it sounded fine. After traffic cleared, I tried again, and thia ti.e it functioned normally. I drove about 50 miles, stopped somewhere, and ha no problems. When I left that place, trying to pull onto...

I allege odometer tampering. I purchased the vehicle on 03/21/2021 with 74,826 miles. I found a smog document in the car which reflects the vehicle was smogged on 02/06/2021 with 75,526 miles.

Had to replace rear brake pads at 21,100 miles…very odd to have to replace at such a low mileage. Also, the major issue I’m having is with water leaking into my car…the dealership first said they thought it was due to clogged sunroof drains….they were wrong…took it back after issue still happening, and now they are saying that the sunroof drains are deformed…the water is coming in from under the dash onto the passenger side of the floor and going to the back. Also, leaking from the top edge onto the passenger seat. There also is some water on the driver seat, and the driver’s seatbelt feels damp. Under both the passenger & driver’s seat there is rust….this car was brand new when I got it. The car has heated/power seats. I’m concerned that this water damage may cause other issues down the road..including safety issues. Rust and mold are...

1).Sometimes I can smell exhaust gas inside the car room like in my previous car Nissan Maxima SE 2008, which is extremely dangerous. 2).The rear camera works no so well - sometimes rearview disappearing completely. Also, approximately a year ago, I received a letter regarding Nissan Altima SV 2017 recall(s). I contacted several different Nissan dealers in Miami but nobody knows about the recall. Could you explain please what is going on with recalls? Thanks.

While driving, my car seems to lock up, for instance, I was driving down the highway, doing 70 mph, and my car suddenly locked up, slowing me down to 55 mph within seconds, before it finally unlocked. Also, while I was breaking, the car accelerated, almost shooting me through a stop sign.

I HAVE A 2017 NISSAN ALTIMA SV, 4CYL, 2.5L... I AM HAVING WORSENING PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO PULL OFF FROM A RED LIGHT FOR EXAMPLE, IT WILL HESITATE FOR ABOUT 4,5 SECONDS, RPMS INCREASE THEN A SURGE OF ACCELERATION. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING IT WILL LOSE SPEED WITH MY FOOT ON THE GAS, EVEN WITH THE RPMS UP AS IF IT WERE MOVING FASTER.. THANKFULLY THE DRIVERS BEHIND ME WERE ATTENTIVE OR IT COULD HAVE CAUSED ME AND OTHERS A GREAT DEAL OF DAMAGE, LIKE WHEN I WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A CROSS STREET TURN LANE. IT WAS SPORADIC AT FIRST; I WENT TO VALVOLINE AND GOT REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION FLUID, AND THE GUY TURNED OFF THE ENGINE LIGHT. IT STARTED UP AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER, AND I GOT A NEW AIR FILTER AND WENT BACK FOR A FUEL SYSTEM CLEANING. ANOTHER GUY RESET THE ENGINE LIGHT AGAIN,...

VEHICLE KEEPS SHIFTING INTO SPORTS MODE WITHOUT ACTIVATING IT

DELAY WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, IT WONT REV OR DO ANYTHING FOR A FEW MINUTES UNTIL THE CAR WILL FINALLY MOVE. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IN AN INTERSECTION OR SWITCHING LANES. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, NO CODES WHEN THE DEALER TEST IT. DOESN'T ALWAYS HAPPEN, HAD TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES, NO HELP. ONCE I TURN OFF THE CAR IT RESETS ITSELF AND WILL WORK FINE UNTIL THE NEXT STOP.

THERE IS AN ACTIVE RECALL FOR THE HOOD LATCH WHICH NISSAN HAS NO RESOLUTION FOR AT THIS TIME. FIRST- THIS SAME RECALL EXISTED ON MY 2014 NISSAN ALTIMA AND WHILE THE CURRENT RECALL IS LISTED AT JUNE 2020 FOR THE 2017 ALTIMA THIS ISSUE IS NOT NEW OR UNKNOWN TO NISSAN. THEY SIMPLY DO NOT KNOW HOW TO PERMANENTLY AND SAFELY RESOLVE THE ISSUES. SECOND- THE CURRENT "FIX" IS TO PRESS DOWN FIRMLY ON THE HOOD EVERY TIME BEFORE DRIVING. THIS IS NOT A RESOLUTION AND OWNERS OF VEHICLES IMPACTED BY THIS RECALL SHOULD QUALIFY FOR A MANDATORY BUY BACK FROM THE MANUFACTURER.

ON SEPT. 15TH 2020, I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY, I WAS REAR ENDED BY A TRACTOR TRAILER AND FROM THERE PUSHED ACROSS FOUR LANES HEAD ON INTO MEDIAN CEMENT WALL THE CAR THEN ROLLED BACK INTO TRAFFIC WHERE I WAS HIT AGAIN BY ANOTHER TRUCK IN THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE WHEEL AND HOOD AREA, THIS SENT ME BACK INTO THE GUARD RAIL ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. DURING THIS COLLISION NONE OF AIRBAGS DEPLOYED IN THE FRONT OR REAR, THIS CAR HASN'T BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS, AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS LISTED FOR THE AIRBAGS, SYSTEM DID NOT ALERT ME TO TRAFFIC IN BLIND SPOT, SAFETY FEATURE FOR THIS WAS ON. THE CAR IS LOCATED AT BARROW WRECKER SERVICE SHOP & YARD 2267 DIXIE AVE SE, SMYRNA, GA 30080. 770-435-8945. I WILL ATTACH POLICE REPORT AND PICTURES.

REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCK STOPPED WORKING INTERMITTENTLY THEN THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCK STOPPED WORKING INTERMITTENTLY. I NEVER KNOW IF THE DOORS ARE LOCKED OR UNLOCKED. IF THE FOB WAS USED TO LOCK THE CAR AND THELOCK DID NOT FULLY LOCK, YOU CAN OPEN THE DOOR BUT THEN IT SETS OFF THE CAR ALARM. THE REMOTE START WILL NOT WORK ANYMORE WHICH I AM ALSO GUESSING IS DUE TO THE LOCKING ISSUE. SPOKE TO THE DEALER BUT MY CAR IS OVER 3 YEARS OLD AND I DID NOT PURCHASE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, SO THEY SAY IT'S AN EXTREMELY COSTLY DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR. I FEEL THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE, ESPECIALLY FOR A CAR THATS ONLY A LITTLE OVER 3 YEARS OLD.

COLLISION LIGHT SHOWS UP ON DASH. THE LIGHT COMES ON ALL THE TIME WHEN DRIVING ON LITTLE BUMPY HIGHWAY STREETS AND / OR DRIVING DOWN ON BRIDGES. LIGHT TURNS OFF AFTER DRIVING FOR SOME TIME. NISSAN DEALERSHIP HAS CHECKED AND COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM. NO DTC. WAS PRESENT WHEN SCANNED BY TECHNICIAN. CAR IS DRIVEN 17500 MILES ONLY AND NO ACCIDENTS.

DRIVER SIDE REAR DOOR WONT LOCK AS WELL AS WINDOW DOES NOT GO DOWN ALL THE WAY.

MY NISSAN ALTIMA 2017 WILL JUST STOP ACCELERATING OUT OF NOWHERE WHILE OTHER VEHICLES ARE COMING BEHIND ME ON THE INTERSTATE ROAD THIS MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND IT HAPPENS LIKE ALMOST EVERY 3 WEEKS BACK TO BACK, SINCE DECEMBER 2019 TILL DATE MY CAR DOESN'T ACCELERATE AND WILL BE MOVING TOO SLOW LIKE ITS ABOUT TO STOP ON THE ROAD WHILE STILL DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WILL ACCELERATE SLOWLY AND MOVE BUT STILL NOT MOVING LIKE NORMAL.

MY 2017 ALTIMA IS EXPERIENCING A SPORADIC DELAY WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. IT WON'T REV OR DO ANYTHING FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS NO MATTER HOW FAR DOWN THE PEDAL IS. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT'LL GO. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND NO CODES. IF I TURN THE CAR OFF, IT'S LIKE IT RESETS AND HAS MORE POWER AFTERWARDS. *TR

THE FOB HAD STOPPED WORKING ONLY THING IT'S DOES IS START THE CAR NO REMOTE START NOT UNLOCK DOORS. AFTER PAYING 200 FOR A NEW PHONE TO BE PROGRAMMED NOT TO MUCH THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS I HAVE SPENT IN GETTING LOCK OUT ASSISTANCE FOR LOCKING KEYS IN CAR A FOB IS EASILY LOST WHEN IT HAD TO BE UNATTACHED FROM THE DOOR KEY ITSELF. *TR

ALL ROTORS ARE BAD PADS OK

WHEN I STOP AT A RED LIGHT AND PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS TO PROCEED IT WOULD BARELY MOVE AND THEN TAKE OFF. MY CAR HAS UNDER 19,500 MILES AND THE CAMERA IS MESSED UP, MY CAR WOULDN'T START BEFORE, MY BLUETOOTH HESITATES AT TIMES AND MY WARNING LIGHTS ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. NOW MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS AND I GET MY OIL CHANGES DONE AND JUST GOT MY BRAKES DONE AND MY CAR IS SQUEALING AGAIN.

NISSAN AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONING. THE ALARM GOES OFF 'FRONT RADAR UNAVAILABLE DUE TO OBSTRUCTION" AND LITTLE SYMBOL LIGHTS UP OF TWO CARS CRASHING ON DASHBOARD PANEL. MY VEHICLE STOPS SHORT INTERMITTENTLY WHEN THIS WARNING OCCURS. I HAVE NOTICED THE PROBLEM IS MORE FREQUENT WHEN I MAKE A TURN, GO OVER A SPEED BUMP OR IN INCLEMENT WEATHER IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE FREQUENTLY... CAR COMES TO COMPLETE STOP WITHOUT ME TOUCHING THE BRAKE. I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED TWICE TODAY BECAUSE OF THIS. ON THE WAY HOME FROM WORK TODAY THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON 3 TIMES AFTER MAKING SEVERAL RIGHT TURNS ON CITY STREET IT WAS ALSO RAINING. MY CAR STOPPED SHORT AND CAR BEHIND ME HAD TO SLAM ON THEIR BREAKS TO AVOID HITTING ME. .
