2017 Nissan Altima Suspension Problems

Failed component: drivers front coil spring broke. Yes available for inspection upon request. Does not appear to have signs of exterior corrosion. Could effect drivability of vehicle. I think Nissan issued a technical service bulletin for 2022 Altima but not for 2017 Altima. Part has not been inspected by manufacture, police, or any others. No warning indications to driver. Incident occurred pulling out of driveway.

One month Insurance policy lapse and license plate surrender license suspension when I was in hospital emergency room bed time .

Both front springs broke at 30k miles.

NISSAN ALTIMA 2017 LOUD RATTLING FROM PASSENGER REAR SUSPENSION. VIBRATION OR TRAVELING OVER BUMPY CONDITIONS WOULD CREATE RATTLE NOISE. VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 16,000 MILES AND DEALER STATED THAT BOTH REAR SHOCKS NEED TO BE REPLACED. AFTER RESEARCHING MULTIPLE NISSAN FORUMS HAVE DISCOVERED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM NOT ONLY WITH ALTIMA MODELS BUT WITH MAXIMA AS WELL. DEALER STATED DUE TO YEAR IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND RECEIVED REPAIR ESTIMATE FOR OVER $800. DEALER CHARGED $50 FOR DIAGNOSTIC EVEN THOUGH I TOLD THEM WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. HAD SHOCK MOUNT KIT REPLACED ON PASSENGER SIDE AT ANOTHER REPAIR FACILITY FOR LESS THAN $200. LOUD RATTLE IS NOW GONE BUT SHOCK WAS NOT REPLACED AND IS STILL MAKING SOME NOISE OVER BUMPY CONDITIONS. DRIVER SIDE IS CURRENTLY NOT MAKING ANY NOISE BUT PROBABLY WILL FAIL EVENTUALLY. CONTACTED NISSAN AND THEY WOULD NOT CREDIT ME FOR REPAIR COST I INCURRED AND WOULD ONLY COVER HALF OF THE COST IF I TOOK VEHICLE BACK TO DEALER TO HAVE BOTH SHOCKS REPLACED. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED BY NISSAN DUE TO HIGH FAILURE RATE ON PARTS WITH MINIMUM MILEAGE. THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR 100% OF COSTS.

ALL THE SUDEN I WILL START MY CAR AND GIVE IT GAS AND WILL NOT MOVE AS IF IT WAS BEING FORCE TO RUN. THIS HAS HAPPEN MANY TIME AFTER THIS DAY.

MAKES A POPPING AND CLANKING NOISE WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS SLOWLY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE REFUELING THE VEHICLE WITH THE SHIFT LEVER IN PARK, THE VEHICLE ROLLED AWAY SEVERAL FEET FROM WHERE IT WAS PARKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HUDSON NISSAN OF NORTH CHARLESTON (7331 RIVERS AVE, NORTH CHARLESTON, SC 29406, (843) 553-1000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WHEEL BEARINGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER HAD THE VEHICLE FOR FIVE DAYS WITHOUT IT BEING REPAIRED OR RETURNED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WITH THE 2018 NISSAN VERSA, WHICH WAS PROVIDED AS A LOANER VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.
