Carrier/rack problems of the 2013 Nissan Altima

The passenger side door handle will not open the door, I heard and felt a crack when trying to get out of the vehicle. You have to open by using the outside door handle. If this car was too be in an accident the passenger could become trapped inside. This happen while parked.

While driving on the highway at about 67 mph my entire car swerved to the left side. I felt like my steering wheel was loose and the wheel alignment was suddenly off. I did have to have the car towed from work. The final diagnosis is my left rear control arm split in half and my right rear control arm is cracked in the same spot. This is a significant safety issue as it could of caused a major accident if there was a car to the left of mine during this incidence. Nissan reports $1192. 05 to replace both rear control arms. I am in the process of attempting to get reimbursement from Nissan because the local Nissan dealership states that they stock the parts for the repair because they have had a a few of them lately. My case # with Nissan is 33841223.

I close my truck of my car and the window just shattered. I went into the home where I was. We called a neighbor a man to come. He said it would be fine to drive home. It would not fall in he said. We could continue to hear it cracking. It was 74 degrees outside. Another person said they have never seen a back window shatter before. Since it was dark we could not know if something fell onto it. Nothing but dark skies and stars above. Someone touch it and it fell in. So I put a sun visor in the back to catch the falling glass. We all was shock. They all thought with the heater coils it would not fall in or with the protective coating like tint would hold it. Strange I drove home 20 mph. Covered and now I have to wait because it needs to be ordered and I have to pay out of pocket. Please help. I was in n. C, 27870 on 514 davie st. About 9:30 pm. On 04-29-17.

On 12/25/15 after leaving gas station, hood of car came open and crashed into windshield. I immediately pulled over and thankfully their were no cars in front of me nor the rear of me. It did not crack the windshield, but damage has be done to hinge and some body damage when the hood flew open.

Car was parked in driveway and next day noticed an exterior crack on my windshield from middle of the driver's side to the center without any evidence of impact from a foreign object. Size of crack is about 12"-17".

I purchased my car from davis-moore in wichita, kansas on June 27, 2014. I then had to have the windshield replaced in January because of a "stress fracture crack. " that windshield cracked in early April (at least eighteen inches) but dealer says it is from a rock chip, so they won't replace. The rock chip they claim caused the crack is barely detectable. I parked my vehicle in the garage in the evening, it turned cold overnight, and the next morning the crack was there.

Nissan seriously needs to issue a recall! I have a brand new 2013 Nissan Altima (less than 2 months old) and I was at a drive thru waiting for my food when all the sudden my windshield cracked. The crack is very large and it's on the bottom right hand side of the windshield by the passenger seat. Nothing even hit the windshield to cause it to crack and I had a passenger in the car at the time this occurred to confirm that. I cannot believe I have to replace a windshield of a car I just bought less than 2 months ago. I'm actually scared to replace it because I don't want the same thing to happen again. If you google "altima windshield cracked for no reason" you will see that there has been numerous complaints from Altima owners about this issue for the last couple of year. However, nothing has been done to resolve it. Please investigate to see if there is a design flaw that is causing extra stress on the window. I've never had to replace a windshield or have seen one crack right in front of me without anything stricking it.

After returning home from the store, I noticed that there was an object done by my gas pedal. I went to pick it up and it looks like its suppsed to be holding something up there. I looked up and could not find where it went, but then noticed a bolt that holds the bracket for the hood, and gas door cables was loose. I mean it was half way out and the other was tight. I do not feel safe in this car finding all of these diferent problems. Almost like they did not quality check it!.
