2000 NISSAN MAXIMA Unknown Or Other Problems

Unknown

THE STRUCTURAL SUPPORT ON THE BOTTOM OF THE RADIATOR AND THE MAIN ENGINE MOUNT IS RUSTED ALL OUT NOW MY CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR WHEN I WAS DRIVING WAS MAKING A NOISE FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND THEN PULLED OVER TO DISCOVER THAT THE THE MOTOR MOUNT WAS RUSTED OUT FROM THE RADIATOR SUPPORT

2000 NISSAN MAXIMA SE. WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON A HIGHWAY OR SECONDARY ROAD THE VEHICLE STARTS TO BUCK. SUDDENLY WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE (TCS) TRACTION CONTROL AND SLIP LIGHTS ILLUMINATE. THIS CAUSES ME TO SUDDENLY LOSE POWER AND DECELERATE IN HI SPEED TRAFFIC ALMOST LEADING TO REAR END COLLISIONS. I HAVE TRIED TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM BY RESETTING THE VEHICLE'S COMPUTER BY DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY OVERNIGHT AND SPEAKING TO MECHANICS. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. AT TIMES THE TCS WILL ACTIVATE ( SOMETIMES STALL ) WHILE I AM PULLING INTO TRAFFIC OR MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY ( RPM'S GO TO 2000 MAXIMUM WHEN THIS HAPPENS ) CAUSING CONCERN TO MYSELF OR OTHER MOTORIST. THE VEHICLE HAS 190K AND I HAVE OWNED IT SINCE 01/26/2018. THE VEHICLE OPERATED PERFECTLY UNTIL 07/2018. UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE BEEN UNEMPLOYED SINCE 04/2018 AND CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE THE CAR PUT...

UPON INSPECTION THE FRAME AND CROSS MEMBER ARE RUSTED BEYOND REPAIR. IT IS NOW TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND ULTIMATELY USELESS. THE MECHANIC IS AFRAID TO LET THE CAR DOWN OFF THE LIFT TO SUPPORT ITS OWN WEIGHT. HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE AND EVEN CLOSE TO ACCEPTABLE? THIS CAR HAS BEEN STORED IN A GARAGE, NOT DRIVEN OFTEN, AND PROPERLY MAINTAINED. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.

MY 2000 NISSAN MAXIMA CONSOLE IS "SOFT" AND SIDE DOOR CONSOLE PANELS. I READ WHERE OTHER 2000 MAXIMA'S HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. IT'S NOT DUE TO EXTREME HEAT OR ANYTHING. NUMEROUS COMMENTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WHEN I GOOGLE IT. THIS MORNING I TOOK AN ALCOHOL SWAB AND BLACK PAINT RUBBED OFF OF THIS AREA ON DOOR WHERE MOLDING FOR OPENING AN CLOSING/LOCKING DOOR. EACH MORNING WHEN I GET INTO MY CAR WHICH IS HOUSED IN A GARAGE THE INSIDE SMELLS LIKE SOMETHING BURNT. NEVER REALLY CONNECTED THIS WITH THE SOFT CONSOLE ARE UNTIL I READ ABOUT OTHERS COMMENTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. ONE GUY EVEN CONTACTED NISSAN PRESIDENT AND NOTHING WAS DONE. PLEASE ADVISE THE CORRECT WAY TO SEE IF THERE'S A RECALL WHICH MY RESEARCH DIDN'T FIND ONE.

FRONT SUBFRAME RUSTED OUT

ON APRIL 1, 2010, MY DAUGHTER WAS WAITING IN MY VEHICLE FOR ME TO LEAVE WORK, AS I APPROACHED THE CAR I NOTICED SMOKE COMING OUT OF THE HOOD, MY DAUGHTER WAS IN THE CAR, WHEN SAW ME APPROACHING THE CAR SHE EXITED THE CAR AND STOOD IN FRONT OF THE CAR TO OPEN HOOD OF CAR, ONE OF MY COWORKERS YELLED THE CAR WAS ON FIRE POINTING AT THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR. I NOTICED FLAMES COMING OUT FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR, I YELLED FOR MY DAUGHTER TO STAY CLEAR FROM THE CAR, I PHONED 911 IMMEDIATELY, MY CAR WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF A CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, I WORK IN A MEDICAL CAMPUS, I WAS CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF THE PATIENTS AND SURROUNDINGS NEEDLESS TO SAY MY DAUGHTER COULD OF BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT OR WORSE. THE CAR WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES IN LESS THEN 5 MINUTES,...

2000 MAXIMA ENGINE FAILED. PISTON ROD BROKE INTO PIECES AND TOTALLY DAMAGED THE ENGINE. *TS THE ROTORS WERE TURNED AND THE DOORS WERE HARD TO OPEN. THE DRIVE BELTS WERE REPLACED. *JB THE DECK LID LIGHT BULB WAS REPLACED. THE CONSUMER WAS UNABLE TO PULL OUT THE DIP STICK. UPDATED 03/20/06. *JB

THE "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" LIGHT COMES ON OFTEN. THE DEALER HAS REPROGRAMMED THE ECM UNDER THE EMISSIONS WARRANTY, BUT THE O2 SENSOR WAS BAD AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 58K MILES AT MY EXPENSE (OVER $400).

I AM AN OWNER OF A 2000 NISSAN MAXIMA SE. SHORTLY AFTER BUYING MY CAR IN AUGUST OF 2000, I HAVE FOUND MANY PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR. ONE PROBLEM IS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT KEEPS COMING ON. IT HAS BEEN CHECKED OUT WITH THE DEALER, AND WHILE THEY TURN IT OFF, IT HAS COME ON TWICE MORE. THE SECOND PROBLEM IS A VIBRATION THAT COMES FROM THE FRONT END FO THE CAR, AND IS FELT THROUGH THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS OCCURS DURING DEACCELERATION AT SPEEDS OF 60 MPH OR HIGHER. THIS HAS ALSO BEEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER WHICH SAYS THE PROBLEM IS DUE TO WARPED ROTORS. I HAVE CHANGED THEM TWICE SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, AND THE CAR ONLY NOW HAS 37,000 MILES. FINALLY THERE IS A CONSTANT ROUGHNESS TO THE RIDE OF THE CAR AS IF THERE IS NO SUSPENSION SUPPORTING THE CAR. ALSO...

ENGINE CHECK LIGHT ILLUMINATES WHILE DRIVING. DEALER HAS REPLACED CATALYTIC CONVERTER. HOWEVER, ENGINE CHECK LIGHT STILL ILLUMINATES.*AK

ENGINE CHECK LIGHT HAS COME ON 3 TIMES (WITHIN 13 MONTHS OF PURCHASE) CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS THE PROBLEM ALL 3 TIMES. *AK
