2003 NISSAN MAXIMA Unknown Or Other Problems

CAR STALLS AT LIGHTS AND JUST STOPS RUNNING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET. THE STALLING PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS BUT THE CAR STALLING WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IS FAIRLY NEW. STALLS AT LIGFHTS, STALLS WHILE IN MOTION

THE SUBFRAME AND THE RADIATOR SUPPORT BRACKET ARE RUSTED OUT. ENGINE AND RADIATOR READY TO COME DOWN.

I NO THERE WAS A VOLUNTEER RECALL ON A COUPLE DIFFERENT PARTS OF THIS CAR , YET LOOKING AT THE VIN NUMBER DOESNT SHOW A RECALL NOW. I BOUGHT MY 5TH GEN MAXIMA AND SINCE THEN IVE HAD TO REPLACE THE CAMSHAFT SENSORS IN IT NOW 3 TIMES AN EVEN GOTTEN NEW CONNECTORS INSTALLED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IVE HAD MY CAR JUST SUDDENLY DIE IN TRAFFIC AS IM DRIVING OR SOON AS YOU TRY TO ACCELORATE IT DIES AND IS HARD TO RESTART.. ITS FRUSTRATING TO LOVE THE CAR AND CANT EVER SEEM TO GET IT RIGHT., IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO HAVE A PROBLEM. I MONITOR NISSAN'S WEBSITE TO SEE IF THEY HAVE ANY TSB'S WHEN I HAVE AN ISSUSE AN NORMALLY I FIND THERES SOMETHING FROM FEW YEARS BACK THAT HAD A RECALL FOR IT.

TAKATA RECALL DRIVER AND PASSENGER WINDOWS WERE BOTH DOWN ON 11/9/17 AROUND 8AM IN THE MORNING. BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER WINDOW WERE ALL THE WAY DOWN. I DID LEAVE THE DOORS UNLOCKED OR WINDOWS DOWN WHEN I WENT TO SLEEP. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY ON A REGULAR STREET PARKED OVER NIGHT.

OUR 2002 NISSAN MAXIMA HAS BEEN TOTALED. WE NO LONGER HAVE IT, BUT OUR SON WAS IN A MAJOR FATAL CAR ACCIDENT ON A MAJOR CITY STREET 2007, TO WE OURSELF DO NOT KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WAS THE CAUSE, OUR SON FELL ASLEEP. NO DRUGS OR ALCOHOL INVOLVED. COURTS STATED SPEEDING WITHOUT INVESTIGATED PROOF. OUR SON IS INCARCERATED FOR 36 YEARS...UPDATED 11/08/17 *BF ...UPDATED 11/14/17 *BF UPDATED 9/12/18*JB

I HAVE A 2003 NISSAN MAXIMA GLE, WITH APPROXIMATELY 148,000 MILES ON IT. THE TRANSMISSION "SLIPS:" FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD WHEN DOWNSHIFTING AFTER BEING IN A HIGHER GEAR, CAUSING THE CAR TO "HESITATE", OR SHUT OFF WHILE I'M DRIVING, STOPPED AT A LIGHT, STOP SIGN, ETC. NUMEROUS OTHER MAXIMA OWNERS WHO HAVE HIGH MILEAGE HAVE COMPLAINED OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS, BUT NISSAN HAS NOT ADDRESSED THIS PROBLEM.

THIS IS A MILEAGE ISSUE. I BOUGHT ON JULY 8, 2005 FROM EMPIRE NISSAN, ONTARIO, CA A 2003 350-Z VEHICLE THAT A AN ODOMETER READING OF 11684. ON JULY 11, MY INSURANCE AGENT CHECKED ON LINE WITH CARFAX ON THE HISTORY OF THIS CAR. PER CARFAX REPORT, MILEAGE AS OF DEC. 15, 2003 WAS 12,243 AND AS OF MARCH 2, 2004, IT WAS 12, 244. UPON CARFAX ADVICE, WE CAN EITHER NOTIFY YOUR OFFICE OR THE CALIFORNIA DEPT OF MOTOR VEHICLE. DMV ADVISED US TO BRING IT TO THE DEALER'S ATTENTION BECAUSE THEIR RECORDS ONLY SHOW 1 REGISTRATION UPON THE PURCHASE OF THE FIRST ORIGINAL BUYER. THEN, THE MILEAGE WAS 8 MILES. IT HAS NOT BEEN SMOGGED NOR RE-REGISTERED. I HAVE BROUGHT THE MATTER TO EMPIRE NISSAN ON THE EVENING OF JULY 13, 2005. I WAS ASKED TO WAIT AND THEY SAID THEY WILL RESEARCH THE MATTER & CALL ME...

THE PAINT ON THE VEHICLE IS OF EXTREMELY POOR QUALITY. IT CHIPS EXTREMELY EASILY, MUCH MORE SO THAN ANY OTHER CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED. THE HOOD AND OTHER PARTS OF THE VEHICLE ARE LOADED WITH PAINT CHIPS. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND SCORES OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT IT. NISSAN NEEDS TO DO A RECALL AND REPAINT THE VEHICLES. *JB

PURCHASED NISSAN MAXIMA ON DECEMBER 11, 2002. NOTICED, IN EARLY MAY, THE PAINT HAD CHIP MARKS ALL THE WAY TO THE METAL OF THE CAR (ON BACK PANELS CLOSE TO BOTH PASSENGER DOOR'S. PAINT IS STARTING TO CHIP ALONG THE FRONT EDGE OF BOTH PASSENGER DOORS.) I LIVE IN WI & BOUGHT VEHICLE NEW ON DECEMBER 11, 2003. SO THAT MEANS THERE IS SNOW ON THE GROUND UNTIL, AT LEAST EARLY, APRIL. SO OUT OF THE FIVE MONTHS THAT I HAVE BEEN MAKING PAYMENTS ON THIS EXPENSIVE VEHICLE...THREE OF THEM HAVE BEEN DURING THE WINTER WHEN THERE AREN'T A LOT OF STONES, PEBBLES, ROCKS, ETC. I REALIZE THERE COULD BE SOME PAINT CHIPPING...BUT MY GOODNESS!!! I HAD TRADED-IN MY 1996 MAXIMA FOR THIS UPGRADED MODEL!!! MY 1996 DIDN'T HAVE PAINT CHIPS THAT WERE CHIPPED TO THE METAL OF THE VEHICLE!!! *NLM

UNDER LOW LIGHT DRIVING CONDITIONS SUCH AS EARLY MORNING OR AT DUSK, DURING RAIN, SNOW, OR HAZE, WHEN HEADLIGHTS ARE REQUIRED FOR SAFE DRIVING, MY INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS CAN BLEND WITH THE DIALS AND UNDER THE RIGHT LIGHT CONDITIONS CAN BECOME UNREADABLE. I DROVE FOR OVER ONE HOUR ON ONE DAY AND COULD NOT DISTINGUISH MY SPEED. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING IS POOR. I HAVE NOTIFIED NISSAN AND SENT LETTERS BUT HAVE NOT YET HAD A RESPONSE. THE DEALER INVESTIGATED THE PROBLEM AND IT WAS DECIDED THAT THIS IS HOW THE PANEL WAS DESIGNED. AFTER THE DEALER COMPLETED HIS WORK, I RECEIVED A VOICE MESSAGE FROM NISSAN CUSTOMER SERVICE. I RETURNED THE CALL AND LEFT THEM A VOICE MESSAGE TO RETURN MY CALL. THEY NEVER DID, SO ON NOVEMBER 18, I SENT A LETTER WITH ATTACHMENTS TO MR SEMPLE, THE PRESIDENT OF NISSAN DESIGN AMERICA. AS OF TODAY, I HAVE...
