Problems with 2015 Nissan Altima STRUCTURE

I was driving on the freeway and all of a sudden my hood flew up onto my windshield. it was very frightening... i don't understand how this can happen when the hood is latched shut.

I tried to release the hood by way of pulling the interior latch, it did not open. i called the dealership they told me to bring it in the next day. i got out of the car and pressed on it (to be sure it was closed) and drove away from the gas station. i was driving 30 miles per hour when the hood let go and hyperextended and flew up in front of me and i was unable to see anything.

One day my hood latch came open while driving and now it won't even open up at all

Rear driver's door cannot open from the inside. it make fly open while car is in motion. while driving on expressway, i had to slam on my brakes because a car jump in my lane without warning; both passenger and driver seat belts did not snatch back.

The rear driver side door cannot open from the inside. have to let window down to grab the outside handle in order to open that door. reported it to dealership. no recall on vin..the problem was not solved. the door might open while car is in motion.

I was driving on the interstate and the hood latch failed and hood flew up causing extensive damage to the car.

Hood of the car randomly popped open. went to shut it and it felt as if there was tension when trying to close. drove it again and the hood popped open again. wasn't fully open as the safety latch was still working.

Takata recall the vehicle was stationary in a parking lot. someone backed into my front bumper & drove away. my insurance company has the pictures state farm. i had the bumper repaired, the collision company told me to take my car to a nissan dealer to see why the airbag light was still on. serra nissan told me i need a new airbag

I just purchased a 2015 nissan altima 3.5 sl sedan. while taking for a test drive after receiving the vehicle, my 12-year-old rolled down the window part way and her door popped open! i had to pull over to close the door. it happened again yesterday while parked in my driveway. i rolled down the window and the door immediately popped open. i could not close the door until i rolled the window back up. i learned of the recall for the window hitting the door release and reported it to my local nissan service center where i took it as well as to nissan na. i was given a case number and a representative contacted me today to let me know that my vin is not included in the recall and that nissan will not do anything for me, even though this is dangerous! something needs to be done to make manufacturers fix safety issues that come up even if they are not included in a pool of vins targeted in recall campaigns. nissan knows there is a problem and needs to fix them all, not just choice ones. especially if there is proof of the malfunction happening. *dt the consumer stated her husband rerouted the cables in the door and fixed the problem. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 nissan altima. while driving 15 mph, the plastic clasp that held the steering wheel became loose. the clasp fractured the floorboard and water leaked into the driver's side of the vehicle due to the rain. the contact's legs and feet became soaked. the contact dried off the inside of the vehicle at a nearby fuel station and drove home. the dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the failure mileage was 55,000.

On 12/30/2018 i had just left the parking lot of the local walmart and was at a complete stop for a stoplight on the corner of county hwy z and state road 13, waiting to turn left. on the green, i turned and drove approximately 500 feet and my hood flew open to the point of slamming into the roof of the car damaging the vehicle. i pulled over and closed the hood and slowly drove home. when home i checked to see if possible recall on hood. there have been some, i contacted the local dealership after the holidays and was told my vin was not part of the recall, therefore they couldn't fix any damages and i was to contact consumer affairs.

As i was driving on a back road, the hood flew up and rested on the windshield.

2015 altima has incurred two separate water leak issues within two months. first, diagnosed as clogged ac drain. this required complete replacement of carpet. this was repaired under warranty. second, diagnosed as faulty firewall grommet on steering assembly. this allowed excessive amounts of rainwater to flood driver side carpet and under dash electrical while driving. nissan claims is not a warranty-able failure due to "nature" being source of water which flooded through firewall. dealer states this has been a common occurrence on 2013-2017 altimas nissan also does not see how failure of firewall grommet (s) could lead to vehicles sinking faster in the event of a water crash.

While driving on a four lane main stree i let the rear window down behind driver and door unlocked and flew open couldn't close unless the window was put up confused pulled over and tried to roll window down again with same result next day door will not open or close from inside or out

My car caught fire and was totaled. i had been smelling something the day before it caught on fire. i was driving on the city street and i smelled the smell i had been smelling stronger and i looked at the hood and it was smoking. i pulled over and more smoking started pouring out from my car. then the dashboard went off. i got out and called 911 and by the time they got there the front of my car was on fire. after it was put out the fire had burned through just about everything under the hood.

Hood flies up randomly due to latch recall. resulted in scratches as i lost control of the vehicle. went to two dealerships to have the issue resolved. nissan refused to cover damages stating that there is no way to prove its associated with the incident. you try driving with hood in your face and see if you can avoid not killing yourself...updated 03/01/17 *bf *cn

While driving on intersate highway i77 in july 2016 with an outside air temperature of ~100f the sunroof exploded / shattered for no apparent reason. the inside sliding panel was closed so no passengers were affected by flying glass.

Car caught on fire by it self while driving, it was a clear night, i did not hit anything. just started by its self.

Nissan altima 4d sedan 2.5s felt and looked great at 17 odometer readings. overtime it has lost power and has made me have a rough time on highway than usual. going at speeds of 55-75+ all seats feel as if they're going to detach from the bottom compartment. wheels on this sedan are at recommended psi 35-40 yet going at 55-75 speeds it feels as if i'm riding a horse with different types of measures on each side. front window along with rear end window have both been dislocated from its original position. my car is slowly breaking down at 7.2k miles brand new. recently went back to the dealership car loan was made and obviously everything was fine. i'm not going to deal with their little game. it's a matter of time until the body on this sedan breaks apart. i have had no car accidents, problems began as first oil change was performed nov 11 2015. it's becoming very difficult to manage vehicle on highway as it goes left or right as wind hits front/rear. have personally tried figuring out what the problem is have noticed a lot of black goo rear area by tires, front end, under back seats, under passenger and driver seat. at times i feel as if the right side is suspended a bit more than the left, and vise versa. noise level has increased significantly with all windows and doors closed. somethings definitely wrong with the structure of this vehicle nhtsa, i'm asking for an investigation helping me and others with this problem.

I am unable to close the hood of my car completely. the hood latch is loose at all times and i am unable to use the "open hood" button on the interior. i never received a recall notice from nissan. however, when i took my car in for it's first service appointment at edison nissan dealership (04/21/2015), the service technician reported that the recall was addressed and serviced. today on 08/10/2015, the hood popped open and i am unable to close it. i have tried to contact the dealership to set up a repair, but no service managers or store managers were available to discuss my concerns and the representative was unable to set up a courtesy loaner car for me tomorrow, which would allow me to drop off my car for repair and still get to work.

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 nissan altima. while driving up an incline at 60 mph, the vehicle lost power and began to roll backwards. the vehicle was towed to a dealer who was unable to diagnose or repair the vehicle. the failure recurred. in addition, the contact noticed corossion on the trunk where the latch was located. the vehicle was taken back to the dealer who was unable to duplicate the failure and repair the vehicle. the vin was included in nhtsa campaign number: 16v029000 (latches/locks/linkages). the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 20,000.

The vehicle "high centered" at various places on speed humps, some of which required backing up to spare worse affects. early damage is inevitable, and unsafe, and costly. frequently the vehicle scrapes at parking barriers and curbs. in no way can it be driven on a pasture road of ruts and center ridged elevations, both for "high centering" and catching plant life on fire due to dragging the vehicle bottom on the center ridge. the rear camera is more distracting than beneficial, since about five views must be made when moving in reverse, and the camera view, the 6th, is so inconclusive.

Car was purchased new in late april 2015. when i opened the trunk of the vehicle for the first time, i noticed there was rust in the spot welds on the left side of the trunk. front bumper also started to pop out on both sides after driving it the first day and is rubbing and peeling paint from frame of vehicle. rear windshield was pushed all the way to the left with a large gap to the right. this is a big safety issue. front fascia misaligned from factory and rust eating away at main frame of vehicle despite there being no scratches or damage to vehicle. both side skirts misaligned. all doors significantly misaligned from factory. power steering whines and transmission groans and shifts erratically. car does not drive straight at speeds 55+ and wanders between lanes. it takes much effort to keep it straight. trunk lid not aligned properly. bbb mandated nissan to repurchase vehicle and brand it as a lemon due to serious safety defects & non-conformities. nissan failed to fix rear windshield after one attempt and failed to fix other issues after 3 repair attempts. car has been at dealership for 28+ days. nissan failed to calculate correct repurchase numbers and nissan still refuses to fix vehicle. after my protesting, nissan repaired rear windshield but structurally, the rest of the car remains a safety issue. an investigation should be launched. i request nhsta to inspect the quality and build of this vehicle as it endangers my safety and those of other drivers around me. i am still in possession of this vehicle.

The dashboard/center console area has highly reflective/shiny plastic, that reflects the sun into the drivers and passengers eyes, temporarily blinding them a large area of the center console is highly reflective, everything around the stereo controls and upper center vents.. this is a hazard, and not found on many other manufacturers . *tr
