2009 NISSAN MAXIMA Electrical System Problems

WARRANTY JUST EXPIRED AFTER 5 YEARS. FEW MONTHS LATER, THE TELESCOPING STEERING WHEEL STARTED MAKING GRINDING NOISES AND WILL NOT TELESCOPE BACK AND FORTH UNLESS I MANUALLY PUSH OR PULL HARD. GOT QUOTED $850 FOR A REPAIR, BUT I REFUSED TO PAY THAT MUCH TO GET IT FIXED AS IT IS NOT MY FAULT. I SEE MANY 2009 NISSANS HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED IN THE MANUFACTURER TO NOT RECALL THIS! THIS MIGHT BE MY LAST NISSAN AS I ALREADY HAD 3 NISSAN BATTERIES, MY ALTERNATOR REPLACED AND MY DRIVER'S SEAT FRAME REPLACED! I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL MY CAR LOAN IS PAID OFF! *TR

MY 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA WILL NOT START. THE YELLOW KEY LIGHT ON THE LEFT COMES ON BRIEFLY. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT IS THE STEERING COLUMN LOCK MODULE AND THAT IT WILL COST OVER $900 TO REPAIR, NOT TO MENTION OVER $100 FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC EXAM. I DON'T FEEL CONSUMERS SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A PROBLEM THAT THEY HAVE NOT CAUSED. IT'S APPARENT THAT THIS IS HAPPENING FREQUENTLY ACCORDING TO THE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE. I FEEL THAT NISSAN SHOULD PAY THIS COST. *TR

I PARKED AND WENT INTO LOCAL POST OFFICE. GOT BACK IN MY CAR AND IT WOULDN'T START. TRIED TO GET A JUMP AND WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH BATTERY, DOORS UNLOCKED, LIGHTS CAME ON AND HAZARD LIGHTS WORKED. CALLED LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED TO SERVICE GENTLEMAN WHAT WAS GOING ON AND HE IMMEDIATELY TOLD ME THE STEERING LOCK RELEASE HAD GONE OUT AND I NEEDED TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THREE DAYS LATER THE SERVICE GENTLEMAN CALLED ME AND TOLD ME IT WAS INDEED THE STEERING LOCK RELEASE THAT'D GONE OUT AND IT WAS $775 + TAX TO GET IT FIXED. I'M BAFFLED BECAUSE MY CAR IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION AND I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE END RESULT IS THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS. THE CAR WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT THIS RELEASE SWITCH BEING REPLACE AND I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS FOUND THAT THE POWER WHEEL LOCK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS BEING REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

CANT START CAR.. SEEMS LIKE STEERING WHEEL LOCK ASSEMBLY MALFUNCTION. I HAVE LOOKED AND NOTICED THAT ALOT OF 2009 NISSANS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. *TR

I AM A SINGLE 34 YEAR OLD WHITE FEMALE. I HAVE A 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA AND I WAS DOWNTOWN CINCINNATI AT 2:00 AM. I WALKED TO THE CAR FROM A BUSINESS NEARBY AND GOT INTO MY CAR AND IT WOULD NOT START. THERE WAS A LIGHT ON THE TOP LEFT OF THE DASHBOARD THAT WAS YELLOW AND SAID KEY. I ATTEMPTED TO START IT AGAIN AND NOTHING. I CONTACTED A FRIEND WHO HELPED ME TRY TO JUMP IT; THINKING IT MAY BE THE BATTERY AND AGAIN NOTHING. I WAS VERY UPSET THAT I WAS STUCK IN DOWNTOWN CINCINNATI, NOW WITH A FRIEND TRYING TO HELP. I ENDED UP SPENDING A $100 ON A TAXI TO GET HOME AND NOW TODAY I FIND OUT THUS IS GOING TO COST ME $900. THIS CAR ONLY HAS 56,000 MILES ON IT. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO FEEL SAFE. I NO LONGER DO. I...

THE STEERING WHEEL LOCK ISSUE IS LEAVING MAXIMAS STRANDED UNABLE TO START THE CAR WITH THESE SYMPTOMS: WHAT HAPPENS IS WHEN YOU TRY TO START THE CAR, WITHOUT WARNING, THE ELECTRIC LOCK FAILS TO UNLOCK SENDING ERROR MESSAGE TO THE BCM. THE CAR WILL NOT START IN THIS CASE AND WILL FLASH THE INTELLIGENT KEY WARNING IN THE CLUSTER. *TR

I STARTED MY CAR JUST FINE THIS MORNING BUT ON MY WAY TO WORK I STOPPED AT A STORE AND THE CAR DID NOT WANT TO START BACK UP. I CHANGED OUT THE BATTERY FOR THE PUSH START KEY AND THE CAR BATTERY. THIS PROBLEM FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN READING IS AN ISSUE WITH THE 2009 MAXIMA 370Z AND THE GTR. THEY HAVE THE SAME PARTS FOR THE IGNITION SYSTEMS. PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM. I'M FROM TEXAS BUT WORK AS A CONTRACTOR IN PENNSYLVANIA. I LOVE MY MAXIMA AND IT'S A SHAME THAT I HAVE BEEN STUCK IN THE COLD FOR 5 HOURS TRYING TO GET A TOW TRUCK AND TALKING TO MY INSURANCE. THANK YOU. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS LEFT PARKED AT MY JOB PARKING LOT AND WHEN I WENT TO LEAVE HOME AFTER WORK THE CAR SIMPLY DIDN'T WANT TO START. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE NEARBY DEALERSHIP WHICH STATED THAT THE ISSUE IS RELATED TO THE STEERING LOCK CONTROL UNIT. HE WAS NOT ABLE TO STATE WHY IT HAPPENED JUST THAT IT JUST HAPPENS SUDDENLY WITHOUT REASON AND NOW IT'S GOING TO COST APPROX. $1000 TO FIX. YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW MUCH THIS MAY COST IF THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THESE CARS AND THERE IS NO REAL CAUSE WHY IT HAPPENS PER THE TECHNICIAN AT NISSAN'S OF BURLESON STATED. *TR

I PARKED MY CAR AND WENT TO WORK. I GOT OFF OF WORK GOT IN MY CAR AND WAS UNABLE TO START MY VEHICLE. MY PUSH START BUTTON WAS HIGHLIGHTED IN A LOCK POSITION AND I WAS UNABLE TO START MY CAR DUE TO THE PROBLEM. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ONLINE AND FOUND SOME INFORMATION THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME SYSTEM. THIS VEHICLE IS VERY NEW AND HAS LOW MILES. IT DOES NOT SEEM FAIR THAT BECAUSE OF POOR DESIGN THAT A WORKING INDIVIDUAL SHOULD HAVE TO COVER THE REPAIR COSTS OF THE COMMONLY OCCURRING MALFUNCTION. *TR

THE STEERING LOCK MODULE STOPPED WORKING. I WAS UNABLE TO START THE CAR, THE STEERING WHEEL AND BRAKES WERE LOCKED. THE KEYFOB BATTERY WAS FINE, AS WAS THE CAR BATTERY. I HEAR THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH 2009 NISSANS. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR 7 WEEKS AGO. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO A DEALER. THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM. HAVE TO WAIT 3 DAYS FOR THE PART. TOTAL COST - APPROX $900. *TR

I HAD JUST STOPPED BY ANOTHER OFFICE IN MINNEAPOLIS TO PICK UP A PIECE OF EQUIPMENT. IT WAS MY LAST ORDER OF BUSINESS OF THE EVENING. I WAS ABOUT 30 MINUTES FROM HOME. I WENT BACK OUT TO MY CAR AND IT WOULD NOT START. I SPENT ABOUT 2.5 VERY STRESSFUL HOURS TRYING TO GET IT STARTED. I HAD MY 17 YEAR-OLD BRING ME MY OTHER FOB, I REPLACED BATTERIES IN THE FOB, I LOOKED UP PROBLEMS IN THE MANUAL. I HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED BACK TO THE NISSAN DEALER. TO MY DISMAY, THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A COMMON ISSUE AND IT COST $850 TO FIX. SINCE THAT DAY, I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THE INTERNET TO READ ABOUT SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND IT TURNS OUT THEY ARE EVERYWHERE! NISSAN MAXIMA, ALTIMA, 370Z...ALL 2009 TO 2010 MODEL YEARS. NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL AND GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK! *TR

IN MY TRAVEL TO WORK I ARRIVED AT THE LOCAL GAS STATION TO FUEL UP. AFTERWARDS, I GOT BACK IN AND TRIED TO START MY CAR AND IT WOULD NOT START. THE "KEY INDICATOR" WAS THE ONLY LIGHT THAT WAS SHOWING ON THE DASH AND THE WORK "LOCK" WAS SHOWING ON THE PUSH TO START BUTTON. I END UP HAVING TO CALL A ROLL BACK TO TOW MY CAR TO THE NEAREST NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHICH IS OUT OF STATE AND CAUSED ME $200. ONCE I ARRIVED, THE NISSAN EMPLOYEE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS THE CAR LOCK STEERING THAT WAS PREVENTING THE CAR TO START AND THAT IT WAS GOING TO COST $866 TO REPAIR. I HAD TO OPTION BUT TO PAY BECAUSE I NEED MY CAR TO GO TO WORK. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND DISCOVERED THIS HAS HAPPENED TO SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE THAT OWN NISSAN MAXIMA'S AND...

UPON ATTEMPTING TO START THE CAR, IGNITION WOULD NOT CHANGE FROM "LOCK" TO "ACC" OR "ON". INTELLIGENT KEY WARNING LAMP WAS LIT STEADY ON DASH. STEERING WHEEL COLUMN WAS NOT LOCKED. ALL POWER AND OTHER FUNCTIONS WORKED (LIGHTS, DOOR LOCKS, ETC). BATTERY IS FINE. DEALER FOUND STEERING LOCK CONTROL MODULE PART 48700-9N00A FAULTY AND REPLACED WITH STEERING LOCK CONTROL MODULE PART 48700-9N00B. SIMILAR PART ON NISSAN GTRS WAS RECALLED, PART NUMBER 48700-JF00A OR 48700-JF00B, BEING REPLACED BY 48700-JF00C SAME PART NUMBER IS FAILING FOR NISSAN 370ZS AS WELL, SAME YEARS AND SAME PART NUMBER 48700-JF00A OR 48700-JF00B, YET THEY ARE NOT BEING RECALLED. THIS PROBLEM IS ALSO OCCURRING IN NISSAN MAXIMAS AND NISSAN MURANOS IN ALL MODELS OF NISSAN THIS PART WAS REMOVED IN MID 2010 DUE TO CONSISTENT FAILURE. THE PART COSTS APPROXIMATELY $500 FROM NISSAN, IS USUALLY OUT OF STOCK AND BACK ORDERED, AND COSTS ANOTHER $400-$500 TO...

CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND PARKED IN A PARKING LOT FOR 3 MIN. WHILE I WENT TO THE ATM MACHINE. WHEN I RETURNED TO THE CAR IT WOULD NOT START. WARNING LIGHT WOULD COME ON, SO I CHECKED THE OWNER'S MANUAL TO LOOK UP THE SIGNAL AND IT WAS THE STEERING LOCK. HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO HAVE CAR TOWED TO DEALERS FOR REPAIR. *TR

I WAS STRANDED IN A PARKING LOT WITH FREEEZING TEMPERATURE. NISSAN HAD TO REPLACE THE STEERING LOCK ASSEMBLY TO THE TUNE OF $800. IT IS A PART THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED ON THE GTR. IT HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED ON THE 370Z. THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING ON THE MAXIMA OR ALTIMA. OWNERS OF THE 2009 ARE TOLD TO REMOVE THE FUSE TO TAKE THIS PART OUT OF THE EQUATION AND NOT GET STRANDED. NISSAN HAS REPLACED THIS PART ON 2010 VEHICLES AND NEWER. THEY SHOULD REIMBURSE ANYONE WHO HAS TO MAKE THIS REPAIR. IT IS A PART THAT IS NOT NECESSARY IN THIS VEHICLE. PROVEN BY NISSAN HAVING THEIR TECHNCIANS REMOVE THE FUSE IN 2009 MAXIMAS, ALTIMAS, 370Z AND GTR. THE FAULTY PART HAS BEEN PROVEN TO EXIST IN THE 2009 GTR, 370Z AND MAXIMAS. NISSANS CHANGING OF THE PART IN 2010 AND NEWER VEHICLES IS A DIRECT ADMSSION OF THEIR...

WIRELESS KEY FAILED TO START CAR. CAR COMPLETELY DEAD. COULDN'T MOVE WHEEL OR PUT INTO NEUTRAL TO MOVE VEHICLE. IT WAS NOT PARKED SAFELY (A QUICK STOP) BUT NO WAY TO MOVE IT. NO BACK UP MECHANISM TO ALLOW CAR TO BE STARTED OR MOVED. *TR

ON THE MORNING OF 1/8/13 I DROVE MY 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA TO MY COMMUTER PARKING LOT, AND REALIZED THAT I DIDN'T COMPLETELY PARK IN MY SPACE AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF. I PROCEEDED TO START MY CAR WITH THE PUSH STOP/START BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. AS SOON AS I REALIZED MY VEHICLE WOULDN'T START, I BECAME VERY UPSET BECAUSE I JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE LAST JANUARY AND ONLY HAD A POWERTRAIN WARRANTY THAT WAS STILL ACTIVE. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM AND COMPLAINED, WHILE CRYING LEMON LAW. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN ATTEMPTED TO HELP ME START THE VEHICLE WHILE OVER THE PHONE AND AFTER REALIZING WHAT THE ISSUE MAY BE, HE EXPLAINED THAT THERE IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA'S THAT HE BELIEVES THE COMPUTER MODULE IN THE STEERING COLUMN HAD GONE BAD. I ASKED IF NISSAN HAD RECALLED...

STEERING/BRAKE LOCK FAILED TO DISENGAGE WITH ATTEMPTED ENGINE START UP. KEY INDICATOR LIGHT AND SECURITY LIGHTS FLASHING ON DASH. STEERING LOCK REQUIRED REPLACEMENT AFTER CAR WAS TOWED TO NEAREST NISSAN DEALERSHIP. THIS REPAIR WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY WHICH HAD EXPIRED 7 MONTH EARLIER. ON LINE RESEARCH WOULD SUGGEST THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON OCCURRENCE; A NISSAN SERVICE BULLETIN HAS APPARENTLY BE PUBLISHED FOR THIS ISSUE AS IT WAS REFERENCED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT PROVIDING THE REPAIR. *TR

ON DECEMBER 17, 2012 I HAD DRIVEN FROM MY HOUSE TO THE GYM. THERE WAS NO ISSUE WITH MY CAR AND WHEN I WENT TO LEAVE MY CAR WOULD NOT START. MY NISSAN MAXIMA HAS A PUSH START IGNITION AND WHEN I PUSHED THE BUTTON NOTHING HAPPENED. IN THE DISPLAY IT KEPT INDICATING THE YELLOW KEY LIGHT AND THE RED KEY SECURITY LIGHT. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE LOCAL NISSAN DEALER WHO TOLD ME THE STEERING LOCK ASSEMBLY HAD FAILED. IF I WANTED THIS FIXED IT WAS GOING TO COST ME $800.00. I ASKED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT IF THIS WAS A COMMON FAILURE AT THE MILEAGE THE CAR WAS AT AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT COMMON. RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM IT SEEMS THAT THIS ISSUE OCCURS REGULARLY FOR A 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA AROUND THIS MILEAGE RANGE. I WAS TOLD THE WARRANTY DOES TO COVER THIS AND IT...

STEERING WHEEL LOCK/IGNITION PART FAILED JUST OUT OF WARRANTY. PART# 48700-9N00B. *TR

THE STEERING WHEEL LOCK ISSUE IS LEAVING MAXIMAS STRANDED UNABLE TO START THE CAR WITH THESE SYMPTOMS. WHAT HAPPENS IS WHEN YOU TRY TO START THE CAR, WITHOUT WARNING, THE ELECTRIC LOCK FAILS TO UNLOCK SENDING ERROR MESSAGE TO THE BCM. THE CAR WILL NOT START IN THIS CASE AND WILL FLASH THE INTELLIGENT KEY WARNING IN THE CLUSTER. THIS IS A KNOWN COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND A $1000.00 REPAIR. IT IS OBVIOUSLY A DESIGN FLAW. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. *TR

WE BOUGHT OUR MAXIMA BRANDNEW IN JULY OF 2009. LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT UNTIL THIS PAST JUNE OF 2012. OUR FIRST PROBLEM WAS SOME CLITCHING ELECTRICAL WIRING. THE OUTSIDE MIRRORS WOULDN'T MOVE UP AND DOWN WHEN WE PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE. THIS WOULD HAPPEN OFF AND ON WHILE WE TOOK OUR TRIP OUT OF TOWN IN JUNE. AFTER WE CAME BACK MY HUSBAND MADE A APPOINTMENT TO GET IT CHECKED OUT, BUT BECAUSE THE OUTSIDE MIRRORS WERE WORKING AGAIN WE JUST LET IT BE AND DIDN'T FOLLOW UP WITH THE NISSAN SERVICE DEPARTMENT. IN JULY OF 2012 I WAS SITTING IN MY PARKED CAR WHEN I WAS READY TO LEAVE, I STARTED MY CAR ONLY TO HEAR THIS AWFUL SORT OF GRINDING NOISE. I HAD A TOW COMPANY COME TO TELL THAT MY BATTERY WAS "DEAD". WHICH I WAS SURPRISED, BECAUSE MY CAR IS JUST 3 YEARS OLD AND I...

MY FAMILY AND I WERE DRIVING SOUTH BOUND ON THE NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE AT 75 MPH AND THE CAR SHUTDOWN, IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND LOST POWER. LUCKILY WE WERE IN THE RIGHT LANE AND I ACTED QUICKLY TO TURN ON THE HAZARDS AND GET OFF THE HIGHWAY ON TO THE SHOULDER TO AVOID A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THIS CAR ONLY HAS ~16000 MILES AS WELL AS ALL OF ITS SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE IS UP TO DATE. AFTER GETTING IT TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THEY INFORMED US THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR AND THAT EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS WITHIN THE WARRANTY PERIOD THE WARRANTY WOULD NOT COVER IT AS THEY FOUND A LEAF IN THE SENSOR. WE HAVE NO WAY TO VERIFY THAT THERE WAS A LEAF IN THE SENSOR AND THE CAR IS KEPT IN A GARAGE AND/OR DRIVEWAY NOWHERE NEAR A TREE....

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AT ENGINE STARTUP, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND SPARKS BECAME VISIBLE ONCE THE HOOD WAS OPENED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CONTACTED AND A REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE THE DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THE ALTERNATOR HAD MELTED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 130,000.

WHILE TRAVELING IN THE NUMBER (2) LANE OF THE US 405 N FREEWAY AT SPEEDS OF OVER 65 MPH, I NOTICED THAT THE BATTERY LIGHT STARTED FLICKERING, AND WITHIN 10 SECONDS THE ACCELERATOR CEASED TO RESPOND WHEN PRESSURE WAS APPLIED. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS PUSHED, THE ENGINE WOULD REV, AND THE RPM GAUGE WOULD SHOW THE GAUGE MOVING UP, BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT RESPOND. I PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR ALL THE WAY INWARDS, BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT RESPOND. APPROXIMATELY 15-20 SECONDS LATER, I NOTICED THAT THE ENGINE CEASED OPERATING, AND THE WHEEL LOCKED. I WAS ALSO UNABLE TO APPLY THE BRAKES, AS WHEN I PUSHED THE BRAKES NOTHING HAPPENED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT VERY STIFF AND NON-RESPONSIVE. AT THE SAME TIME, LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD CLUSTER WERE ILLUMINATED. I STARTED PANICKING AS I HAD NO CONTROL OF A VEHICLE TRAVELING OVER 60 MPH ON A FREEWAY DURING EVENING...

I PURCHASE MY 2004 NISSAN MAXIMA IN JULY 2003. SINCE I HAVE HAD THE CAR I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT MAJOR PROBLEMS. I PERFORM THE REQUIRED MAINTENANCE ON THE CAR AND STILL HAVE NUMEROUS PROBLEMS. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THINGS THAT SHOULD HAVE LASTED ON THE CAR THE CD PLAYER HAS BEEN REPLACE AND WHEN OUT AGAIN TWICE. TENSOR ASSEMBLY AND TIMING BELT ALSO 1500. AND NOW I HAVE THE REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION ANOTHER 3100.00. THIS IS RIDICULOUS FOR A CAR THAT HAS A LUXURY PRICE TAG. NISSAN HAS NOT BE HELPFUL AT ALL AND DO NOT TRY TO ANSWER OF HELP IN ANY WAY. NISSAN NEEDS TO RECALL ALL 2004 MODELS. *TR
