My wife drives our 2009 Nissan Altima 2. 5s to work on 3rd shift and on her lunch break goes to her car and takes a nap with the car running and was complaining to me for a month or more that she has this smell in her car like a "gas smell" and also was complaining of being tired and nauseous when I spoke with her about it. I noticed her car was abnormally louder when she started it at home and it had not been run that day. I have determined that this is from a cracked exhaust manifold and my wife and I are very lucky she was not killed from the carbon monoxide poisoning she was receiving while sitting in her car while it was idling on her break. The exhaust fumes were being brought into the cab of her car from the cracked exhaust manifold, thru the vents from the outside hvac air ducts under the hood in the engine compartment. I never could smell a "gas smell" which I assumed she meant gasoline or possibly a coolant smell from a leaking heater core and so I blew it off until I myself had to use the car and I quickly realized it was an exhaust gas smell she was smelling and it nearly caused me to become unconscious while driving at which time I immediately pulled over and returned home with the car. I researched this same exhaust gas leak with this car and it is not uncommon but has yet to trigger a recall . Most likely due to no one being killed from the carbon monoxide poisoning and thank god my wife was not the first. I will be ordering a complete exhaust system new for repairs as to not miss any unseen issues with the car having 101,000 miles . I do expect complete reimbursement for the bill from Nissan .

1. The airbag is keep blinking at all times. 2. Load noise from exhaust manifold when start the engine and engine is cold. 3. A few weeks after a rainy day, when the weather gets hot, inside the car smell very bad as if there is a rotten or dead animal in the car.

Carbon build-up on valves causing misfire and the break down of the catalyst. Codes p0300 and p0303 stored in ecm. Required replacement of long engine assembly and exhaust manifold. Initially, dealership cited need to replace ignition coil, software update, fuel line flush. Picked up car and immediately the service light came back on and car began to misfire. Returned to dealership who surmised that there might be a loose wire. Not the issue. Dealer contacted Nissan corporate for direction with diagnostics. Car mileage 59,802.

Starting in April 2016 we had a problem with the vehicle when my wife while driving the car suddenly lost the ability to drive, the engine had shut down entirely. At the time the vehicle had just over 100,000 miles and she was driving on a busy express way between cleveland and akron I-77. She costed into a rest area and we had to leave the car there over night until we could get it towed to the dealership. They told us it was the O2 sensor and it cost us almost 1,200 $ to repair. A few months later in June of 2016 on fathers day with our almost 2 year old daughter in the car, my family and I were driving down to virginia to spend some time with friends. We had another incident. While driving in the DC area on another busy express way I-70 in maryland our car again lost power in the engine. We couldn't drive it any where. We had it woed by aaa to frederick maryland, rented a car, and drove the 5 hours home. A few days later I drove back down to pick the car up. This time it was the mass air flow sensor. It cost us almost 500$ to have it repaired. To my understanding both sensors belong to the exhaust system of a car. On Monday of this week October 30th 2017 the check engine light came on while my wife was driving to work on back roads. When we brought it to the dealer and it was diagnosed with a damaged front exhaust pipe and manifold. The price to fix it is 2,132. 74$. I felt that to have 3 major costs associated with the exhaust system in our car in a year and a half was excessive so I investigated it and discovered that the 2009 Nissan Altima was recalled for the exact problem we have now. For some reason our vehicle wasn't included in that recall. I have spoken with Nissan and they have told me there is nothing they will do to help us out with these repairs. In all 3 situations we were driving.

The vehicle was taken to the local dealer (ron marhofer Nissan, 247 howe Ave, cuyahoga falls, OH, 44221) where it was diagnosed that there was damage to the front exhaust pipe manifold, which needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The Nissan manufacturer was contacted and provided case number: 28754357. The manufacturer also stated that there was a voluntary recall (pc130), but the VIN was excluded. On two previous occasions, the vehicle stalled and was towed. The 02 sensor and mass air flow sensor were replaced. The failure mileage was approximately 103,000.

This car leaks water into the drivers side floor, and keeps trapped rain water inside of both panel doors for weeks after it rains. I've already had to get the exhaust manifold leak fixed (which luckily was covered under a recall). Not to mention that I ended up having to go to the er last year for a breathing treatment because fumes were leaking into my cabin via the air conditioning(problem unknown/undiagnosed). But now like many other owners of the 2009 Nissan Altima, unfortunately the steering wheel ignition lock/switch malfunctioned causing my engine not to be able to turn on suddenly. When I returned to my car, the key fob was not recognized and the engine will not turn on. After towing it to a local Nissan dealership, it was diagnosed as a faulty steering wheel ignition lock, and will cost me an average of $1100 to fix. After contacting Nissans headquarters to see if it would be covered even though their "campaign" ended in Jan 2016 for my vehicle, they denied the request to provide assistance. I don't understand how any auto manufacturer can be allowed to get away with installing a faulty part into the car, and then pass along the ultimate cost of fixing it to any owner. It's not okay to simply cover the cost of those owners who's switch fails during a certain time period, and then inform the rest of us that they are unwilling to help. Nissan installed the defective part, and the right thing to do would be to own up to that mistake and issue a recall. Clearly Nissan does not have the best interest of their customers at heart. And from what I understand, they must have known that part was faulty enough not to issue a temporary extension of the.

This part is cracked/broken just like all the other Nissan Altima exhaust manifolds. Had it happened six months earlier it would be covered under warranty. Six months, 9000 miles??? its a $18000 car. A vital emissions part made of steel cracked and they wont fix it? there is a recall,ntb12-092 in effect for this car but according to Nissan my car dosnt fit the parameters because of the VIN#. It clearly has the exact same problem as the other cars,a defective emissions part and should be included in this safety recall.
