2005 Nissan Altima Electrical System Problems

BROUGHT THE CAR AUGV18TH WARRANTY ENDED SEP 18TH.INTHAT TIME CAR WAS TAKEN BACK FOR ENGINE RELATED ISSUES ALSO NO HEAT WAS .THE CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TWICE FOR REPAIRS.THEN YESTERDAY CAR STOPPED RUNNING COMPLETLY ON SEPT 23RD.THEY SAID THE REPAIRED THE CAR AND GAVE IT BACK TO ME ON SEPT 19TH

I WAS GIFTED THIS CAR BACK IN APRIL AND SINCE THE CAR RANDOMLY STALLS WHILE IN MOTION A Z WHILE DRIVING WITH NO NOTICE. I'VE GOTTEN INTO 1 ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS. *TR

RECENTLY IVE BEEN GETTING THE RED AIRBAG SIGNAL THAT KEEPS FLASHING AND WONT GO OFF. IVE CHECKED THE FUSES. WIRING. RAN DIAHNOSTICS ON IT FOR THAT AND THE FOLLOWING ISSUES AS WELL. THE CAR MAKES A HIGH PITCH SOUND WHEN ITS JUST IDELING THAT SEEMS TO COME FEOM UNDERNEATH THE CAR MAYBE TOWARDS BACK MIDDLE IVE GOTTEN A NEW FUEL PUMP CHECKED WIRING FUSES AND BOUGHT OTHER NEW PARTS AND HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IT IS. ALSO THE GAS GAUGE WONT READ AFTER THE HALF WAY POINT. IVE TRIED TO RESET IT CALIBRATE IT AND NOTHING. DURING COLD DAYS THE GAS GAUGE READS CORRECTLY UNTIL THE CAR WARMS UP. MO THS HAVE GONE BY AND NOTHING SO FAR

MY CAR STARTED TO OVERHEAT AS I INCREASE MY SPEED, I HAVE TO DRIVE AT 30MPH OR LESS TO KEEP ME CAR FROM OVERHEATING ON THE HIGHWAY TO WORK.

TAKARA RECALL. SENSORS ARE MALFUNCTIONING ALSO MY MUFFLER IS GOING. CHECK ENGINE HAS BEEN ON BUT STARTED BLINKING WHEN SENSOR'S STARTED ACTING UP. CANT AFFORD TO FIX THIS BEING HOW I'M A SINGLE MOTHER AND LOW INCOME. I HERD ABOUT THIS RECALL ON MY 05 ALTIMA. AND HAD TO CHECK IT OUT.

I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH THE CAR LETTING OUT ALOT OF EXHAUST.DOESNT GO PAST 35MPH

THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA BECAUSE OF OVER HEATING DUE TO A FAILING CRANKSHAT/CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR WHICH CAUSES CAR TO STALL UNEXPECTEDLY AND CAUSE VEHICLE TO CRASH. WELL MY VEHICLE IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST BUT YET HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND ALMOST WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE DUE TO SENSOR GETTING HOT AND CAUSING CAR TO STALL AND DECREASE SPEED DRAMATICALLY. AND WITH NISSAN NOT RECALLING MY VIN FOR THE SAME OBVIOUS REASONS FOR THE RECALL. SO I'M BEING FORCED TO DRIVE THIS UNSAFE CAR THAT I'VE LET NISSAN KNOW IS DEFECTED, THUS ENDANGERING MYSELF AND THE PUBLIC. IT'S AS THOUGH I HAVE TO BE IN AN ACCIDENT AND THEN HAVE TO SUE NISSAN BECAUSE OF NEGLET AND ALLOWING ONE OF THEIR VEHICLES CONTINUE TO OPERATE KNOWING THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH ITS SAFETY. SO I MAY BE FORCED TO HAVE PROBLEM FIXED BUT WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR REPAIRS.

I OWN A 2005 NISSAN. I RELY ON MY CAR DAILY TO GET TO MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS. THE CAR STALLS IN PARK ALL LIGHTS START BLINKING THEN DIES. HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING AS WELL THE CAR WILL MOVE BUT YOU CANT ACCELERATE ON THE PEDAL THIS HAPPENED IN A TRAFFIC CIRCLE MY FIANCE AND TWO FRIENDS WERE WITH ME AT THE TIME. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS I COULD GET INTO A BAD ACCIDENT AND DIE OR EVEN KILL MY PASSENGERS. I HAVE HAD A MECHANIC RESET MY ECM BUT THIS KEEPS HAPPENING I HAVE TRIED TO FIX THE PROBLEM ON MY OWN AND HAVE HAD NO LUCK. I OWN A 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA 3.5SE V6 FOUR DOOR SEDAN AND I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE I WAS HOPING MY EXPERIENCE WOULD BE AWESOME IVE ALWAYS LIKED THE CARS NOW HONESTLY IM SCARED TO DRIVE IN IT AND WONT RECCOMEND ANYONE GETTING ONE. I HAVENT HAD ANY ACCIDENT OR ANYTHING. ME HAVING THIS CAR IS REQUIRED MEDICALLY. ALSO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ONE DAY STAYED ON FOR A MONTH THEN JUST SHUT OFF SO NOW I HAVE NO CLUE WHATS GOING ON WITH MY CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, A WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

CAR SHUTS DOWN NO POWER WILL NOT START. BACK UP ON THE FREEWAY IT JUST SHUTS OFF WITH NO WARNING THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS PROBLEM WILL KILL ME OR PPL AROUND ME ON THE ROAD. IT WILL STOP AND YOU CAN'T PUT ON YOUR BRAKES NOR STEER TO MOVE TO A SAVE PLACE

MY CAR IS BEING ILLEGALLY REMOTELY HACKED BY AN I.T. TECHNICIAN BY THE NAME OF [XXX] WHO IS ILLEGALLY HACKING MY VEHICLE WITH BLUETOOTH. HIS BLUETOOTH DEVICE NUMBER THAT COMES UP IS [XXX] (WY STANDS FOR THE FIRST 2 LETTERS OF HIS LAST NAME, 23 IS PART OF HIS DATE OF BIRTH WHICH IS [XXX].) HIS # [XXX]. HIS ADDRESS: [XXX]. HIS EMAIL: [XXX]. [XXX] IS DANGEROUSLY HACKING MY VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. [XXX]IS VERY DANGEROUS HE IS HACKING MY CAR ALMOST DAILY, SEVERAL TIMES DAILY. ***HE DOES EVERYTHING LISTED IN THE FBI IC3 ARTICLED CALLED "MOTOR VEHICLES INCREASINGLY VULNERABLE TO REMOTE EXPLOITS." *** HE HAS DISABLED MY ENGINE EVEN CAUSING 2 CAR ACCIDENTS RECENTLY IN JUNE & JULY 2017 (WHEN I WAS DRIVING UNDER 10 MILES PER HOUR), HE HAS DISABLED MY BRAKES, HE HAS HACKED MY TRACTION AT LEAST 100 TIMES AND THE LIGHT COMES ON STATING TCS OFF/SLIP INDICATING THAT THE TRACTION IS DISABLED-THE POLICE TOLD ME TO PRESS THE BUTTON ON THE DASHBOARD THAT SAYS TCS OFF WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND IT WILL RESET ITSELF-BUT IT DOESN'T BECAUSE [XXX] IS REMOTELY HACKING MY CAR. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I AM DRIVING AT A SLOW PACE USUALLY UNDER 10 MILES AN HOUR IS WHEN HE DISABLES MY ENGINE COMPLETELY REMOTELY AND HE CAUSED 2 CAR ACCIDENTS BY DOING THIS. BUT HE DISABLES THE TRACTION AT ANY SPEED OR EVEN BEFORE I TURN THE CAR ON, HE DISABLES IT WITH BLUETOOTH AND WHEN I TURN THE CAR ON, I HAVE NO TRACTION. HE IS CLEARLY TRYING TO HARM/HURT ME. WHY ELSE WOULD ANYONE DO THIS? HE IS CLEARLY SICK AND HIS SICK DANGEROUS BEHAVIOR IS ESCALATING. EVERYDAY ILLEGALLY DANGEROUSLY REMOTELY HACKS MY VEHICLE MULTIPLE TIMES, DISABLED THE TRACTION. AS YOU KNOW, CAR HACKING IS VERY DANGEROUS-HE DOESN'T CARE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I WAS DRIVING MYSELF AND CO WORKER HOME FROM WORK. WHILE DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET MY CAR JUST STALLED OUT AND WOULD NOT START. I COULD HAVE BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY, OUR LIVES WERE PUT AT RISK DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE CAM SHAFT POSITION CENSOR ON MY 2005 NISSIAN ALTIMA. THE CONSUMER WOULD LIKE AN UPDATE ON THE INVESTIGATION INTO THE CAMSHAFT POSITION CENSOR AND THE FUEL PUMP. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO AN INCOMPLETE RECALL THAT WAS PERFORMED ON THE CAMSHAFT CENSOR. *JS

HI HOW ARE YOU? SOMEONE RECENTLY BROKE INTO MY VEHICLE AND SINCE THEN THERE HAVE BEEN SOME INCIDENTS OF REMOTE VEHICLE HACKING WHICH ARE EXTREMELY SCARY TO ME AND AS YOU KNOW, ILLEGAL.

I WORK AT: [XXX] THE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY TECHNICIAN WORKS REMOTE IN ALBANY NY FROM HIS HOME. HIS NAME IS [XXX]. HIS PHONE NUMBER IS [XXX]. HE HAS ALSO BEEN ELECTRONICALLY STALKING ME 24/7. I DON'T WANT ANYONE REMOTELY CONTROLLING MY VEHICLE EVER! THIS IS SCARY! WHAT KIND OF PERSON WOULD DO THAT. PLEASE CHECK THIS FOR ME. I DON'T WANT ANYONE REMOTELY CONTROLLING MY CAR. PLEASE CHECK THIS FOR ME TO ENSURE MY SAFETY AND IF NECESSARY CAN I HAVE NEW CODES FOR MY VEHICLE. I DON'T WANT THIS PERSON TO KILL ME ON THE ROAD BY TURNING MY ENGINE OFF. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

TAKATA RECALL WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR STARTED MAKING A SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT OF MY CAR I TURNED DOWN THE MUSIC TO LISTEN TO THE SOUND. AS I WAS DRIVING THE CAR MADE ONE LAST SOUND THEN THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING SO I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. I GOT OUT TO CHECK THE CAR AND NOTICED IT WAS SMOKING I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR AND NOTICED IT WAS ON FIRE. I GRABBED MY KIDS OUT THE CAR AND MY BELONGINGS AND WALKED DOWN THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY JUST IN CASE THE CAR BLEW UP. I CALLED THE AMBULANCE AND NOTIFIED THEM ABOUT THE CAR. ABOUT 5 MINUTES LATER MY WHOLE ENTIRE CAR WAS IN FLAMES. AS I WAS ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY SOMEONE STOPPED AND LET ME AND MY KIDS SIT IN THE CAR UNTIL MY RIDE CAME. THE FIRE FIGHTERS CAME AND PUT THE FIRE OUT. THEY TOWED THE CAR AND WE LEFT.

MY GAS GUAGE READ HALF, WHILE TURNING CAR RAN OUT OF GAS. POWER STEERING AND BRAKES FAILED WHEN ENGINE SHUT OFF. FORTUNATELY I WAS TURNING INTO INSIDE LANE ON 8 LANE STREET BECAUSE IT TOOK ALL 5 LINES TO SAFEL ROLL TO STOP. AFTER ASKING NISSAN 700 TO CHECK FUEL SYSTEM SENSO 4/BOLT 1 PLUG SOLID PIECE. WENT TO AAA $150 TO CHECK AND DETERMINED GUAGE NOT SENSOR. $600 TO MAYBE REPAIR PART. CALLED NISSAN 6 BOLTS 1 PLUG TO REPLACE GUAGE MODULE WITH 3RD PARTY REPAIRED USED MODULE FROM ANOTHER STATE. MODULE HAS TO BE SENT PRIOR TO 3RD PARTY SENDING PART. INTERNET HORROR STORIES. 6-60 DAY TURN AROUND AND VEHICLE CANNOT BE DRIVEN WHILE PART IS OUT OF CAR. MAIN REASON: SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER ARE PART OF MODULE. MODULE REQUIRES REPROGRAMMING TO CURRENT VEHICLE MILEAGE BEFORE MOVING. NISSAN SHOULD CARRY PARTS IN STOCK DUE TO BOTH DANGEROUS SAFETY AND MILEAGE ISSUES RELATED TO FAILURE OF EITHER MODULE AR FUEL SENSOR. I AM PRETTY STRONG ALTHOUGH 66 BUT YOUGER, FEMALE OR OLDER FOLKS IN SIMILAR SITUATIONS COULD END UP IN BUILDING, TREE OR ANOTHE VEHICLE. NOT KNOWING WHEN CAR IS DIE WITHOUT WARNING IS A DIRE SAFET ISSUE.. RECALLS SHOULD BE ENFORCED BY FAILURE NUMBERS, NOT %AGE OF FAILURES PER MODEL. 50% OF A MODEL THAT SOLD 200 IS NOT AS DANGEROUS AS 50% OF 100,000 SOLD. THE 2005 ALTIMA SER WAS A VERY LIMITED MODEL OF ALTIMA BUT OEM PARTS SHOULD BE AVAILABLE UNTIL AT LEAST A MAJORITY OF THEM ARE OFF THE ROAD WHEN THE RELATE TO SAFETY. NISSAN SEEMS TO GET AWAY WITH OUT RECALLS FOR SAFETY RECALLS, HIGH FREQUENCY ISSUES, SERVICE GUAGING AND FROM WHAT I HEAR KNOWN LEMON PROBLEMS. WHY????

THE CAR'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED AND WHILE DRIVING. THE BRAKE AND BATTERY LIGHTS KEPT GOING OFF AND ON. THERE WAS ALSO A CLANKING SOUND. I STOPPED AND LET CAR COOL. CONTINUED DRIVING AND NOTICED FIRE FROM MY REAR VIEW MIRROR. RAN OUT OF CAR AND IT CAUGHT FIRE 30 SECONDS AFTER FOLLOWED BY COUPLE OF EXPLOSIONS.

MY SON WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WHEN HE HEARD A LOUD NOISE, THEN SAW SMOKE AND STOPPED THE CAR, WHEN HE RAISED THE HOOD THE ENGINE WAS ON FIRE TRIED TO PUT IT OUT WITH WATER AFTER HE SAW HE COULD NOT STOP THE FLAMES CALLED 911 THE CARE TOTALLY BURNED NOTHING LEFT EXCEPT FRAME THE FIRE DEPT. PUT OUT THE FIRE BUT THE CAR WAS ALREADY BURNED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THERE WAS SMOKE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE CRANK SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

VEHICLE DIED WHILE COASTING DOWN THE SIDE STREET. ONCE I STOPPED THE VEHICLE I PUT IT IN PARK AND TURNED THE KEY TO OFF. WHEN TRYING TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE WOULD CRACK, BUT WOULD NOT START. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN LISTED FOR A RECALL FOR THE 2.5 ENGINE BUT NOT FOR MY 3.5 ENGINE, AND NISSAN WILL NOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP THE SITUATION. *TR
