Windshield Wiper Fluid Reservoir sensor going on even when reservoir is full. Gives drivers a warning light which is very distracting. If you go on line, this appears to be an extremely common problem that Nissan has not addressed. This can lead people to not know if they have fluid in reservoir as they will eventually ignore warning light or disconnect sensor (the two most common solutions in Nissan Altima forum).
1 of 2 problems! 1 the passenger head light seems to be leaking water into the headlight and blurring vission forwards and gives a blurring illusion and mabe shorting out the headlight. 2 the windshield wipers liquid sencer showes it needs windshield wipers fluid when it's full. The light on the dashboard keeps flashing showing this and keeps the odometer blocked.
Its not unknown. I arrived at work on Thursday the 12th of May, AT 8:00 A.M. I work in an Industrial Park where there is no traffic. My car was looking great, I put my sunshade cover up and proceeded to go into work. After working all day I came out to my car and my windshield was crack starting from the top of the car and flowering down. Nothing hit my car on my way into work, and actually there is nothing that shows it was hit a all. This is a factory defect and there are bubbles when the glue or whatever they use is a mess.
First, the chip has started to malfunction around 13k miles. Secondly, there is a lurch when the car first starts and an aggressive RPM jump and then drop, it begins to run fine upon warming up alittle. Now, at 20k miles the car is having issues with the wipers not spraying the windows well and the rear passenger door has to be locked manually from the interior.
The washer fluid motor or spray nozzles design is defective. I’ve been to my dealership multiple times they have replaced the pumps and gone through the whole set up and said there’s nothing that can be done. When dirt and dust are on the windshield and you want to spray it off is when the problem arises. The fluid is only sprayed on the lower portion of the windshield and does not spray the part that needs sprayed the middle and top where you look out off. This is not only a hindrance but could be a safety issue when your visual path is compromised. The dealer said they were putting in complaints and hopefully the engineers or design team looks at it as a problem. I hope this grabs the attention of the people that can make safety issues known and hopefully something is put in the motion to...
My windshield cracked on the front passenger side out of nowhere...meaning not any reason for it to do so. First it was on the passenger's side which I originally assumed that something/somebody must have hit it while parked at my child's school. I took it to AAA Glass to get an estimate and was told that that usually a windshield does not do that unless it is 3 years old. My car is a 2020!!! Then my car was parked in my driveway all weekend and when I got in it, I noticed that the driver's windshield area was cracked. Finding this VERY usual, I did a google check to discover that several drivers have had the SAME problem with the SAME year, SAME model and SAME make of the car. A YouTube video of their car even showed it is the SAME area that I experience the crack. I...
MY WINDSHIELD CRACKED FOR NO REASON . NO SIGNS THAT IT WAS CRACKED BY IMPACT . THE CRACK KEEPS GETTING BIGGER. GIVING ME POOR VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING . VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE .
SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THIS VEHICLE I'VE HAD TWO INSTANCES THAT I FEEL ARE DEFECT RELATED. THE TIRE INDICATOR LIGHTS CONTINUED TO READ LOW AIR. THE TIRE WAS LEAKING SOME TYPE OF BLACK FILM AND A HUGE KNOT APPEARED ON THE SIDE OF THE TIRE. ANOTHER INCIDENT INVOLVED THE TIRE COMPLETELY BLOWING. THE TIRE DEFECTS WERE REPORTED BACK TO THE COMPANY AND WERE INDICATED AS NO FAULT TO MANUFACTURE. SINCE I'VE COMPLAINED OF A RECALL THAT HAS BEEN IN THE MODEL VEHICLE BUT A DIFFERENT YEAR. MY VISIBILITY IS OBSTRUCTED DUE TO ALL WINDOWS RETAINING DEW AND MOISTURE CAUSING FOG TO APPEAR IN ALL WINDOWS. IT HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING EARLY MORNING & AT DAWN DURING TEMPERATURE CHANGES. THE DEFROST DOESN'T CLEAR THE WINDOWS. DURING RAINY WEATHER THE CAR IS COMPLETELY DISABLED DUE THE OBSTRUCTION IN VISION FROM THE THICKLY FOGGED WINDOWS. I HAD IT CHECKED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND...
MY WINDSHIELD CRACKED IN OCTOBER 2020. BOUGHT IT IN AUGUST 2020 AND MY SISTER AND MOTHER BOTH OWN NISSANS(SENTRA AND ROUGE). BOTH WINDSHIELDS ARE CRACKED.
MY WINDSHIELD CRACKED FOR NO REASON WITH ONLY 460 MILES ON THE CAR. UPON LOOKING THROUGH A SOCIAL MEDIA GROUP AND READING FORUMS IT WAS VERY EVIDENT THAT THIS IS A SUPER COMMON ISSUE. I DON'T KNOW IF IT CRACKED WHEN I WAS DRIVING OR OVER NIGHT BUT I NOTICED IT ABOUT A MILE INTO MY MORNING DRIVE TO WORK WITH NO OTHER CARS AROUND AND ONLY DOING 30MPH. THE WINDSHIELD IN THIS CAR IS NOT ONLY VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE BUT IT ALSO POSSES A SAFETY ISSUE AND IN MANY STATES YOU CAN BE TICKETED FOR IT BEING CRACKED. THIS FORM WON'T ALLOW ME TO UPLOAD A PICTURE, JUST A PDF BUT I DO HAVE PICTURES OF THE CRACK. I PERSONALLY KNOW 1 AND HAVE FOUND AT LEAST 20 OTHER PEOPLE WITH THIS ISSUE WITHOUT LOOKING HARD
