2 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 12/03/2019

I purchased a used 2014 Nissan Altima with 58,000 miles. It drove great during test driving and on my way home which is 1 hour away from where I live. By day 2 the car began jerking around 60 mi per hr. And under. I made an appointment to have it looked at my local Nissan dealership. By day 4 on the way to the dealership the rpm would jump up to 4 and the car made a winding noise. It would advance forward quickly and then stall. All of this while driving on a major highway. I came to a place where I could pull over waited a few minutes and then tried to pull off the car would not go anywhere. I finally had to have it towed to the dealership. Nissan has yet to know what the problem is, saying it has an "unspecified code". It's been 3 days. I know there had been a recall on the cvt transmission however I don't see my vehicle VIN on the list.

Failure Date: 10/19/2019

The vehicle stalls when pulling from a stop sign or stoplight. The vehicle restarts without issue then will stall again when engaging into gear. This happened at highway speed also with the car turning completely off. After exiting the highway, the car restarted without issue and was able to continue off the road. At a stoplight, it stalled again in the intersection. Research online shows multiple complaints on this vehicle similar to my complaint. This vehicle is unsafe to drive and I don't think I will drive it again.

6 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 11/06/2016

Engine should've shut off or give warning sign that oil from the oil filler came out andsplattered all over engine causing a engine fire which could've injured or killed someone this happened because someone must've left the oil filler cap off or didn't tighten cap,all mechanics told me the car should've shut off or warning light should've came on. Also the location of oil filler is in a bad spot it's on the middle of the engine with lots of plastic covers over engine,most engines the oil filler is on side of engine so oil doesn't spill on top of engine . The engine is a 2. 5 liter engine . The engine runs very hot and with all the plastic parts and any oil spilling it can easily catch fire . I think Nissan should install a oil filler cap sensor to avoid potential engine fires. Car is being repaired now from insurance claim but Nissan refused to reimburse any fincancial offer or a replacement car,since I brought the car brand new 6 months ago . I think someone should investigate this,a simple fix like a oil cap sensor could prevent fires and save lives.

8 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 11/26/2014

Vehicle is driven several miles so the engine is warm. Three times the car has stalled when stopping at a light or slowing at an intersection to make a left turn. When moving from the waiting position the car will stall and as an oncoming car is coming poses a left threatning situation as it will not move forward immediately. Car has been taken to Nissan dealership 2 times and both times nothing shows on the computer. Also, the car was driven the last time and the stall is not replicated. Because the problem is not replicated nisaan refuses to admit there is a problem with the car although a life is in jepordy due to the danger of making a left had turn in front of traffice when there is ample time to make the turn. I have spoken to the national office and they refuse to do anything since the computer says the car is not broken.

9 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 06/30/2014

Since I leased my car in may2014 I forgot to turn the engine off 4 times . Twice it ran all night in my garage but fortunately the gas fumes did not enter my house while I was sleeping. I believe its because I'm not use to the keyless ignition system. At first I thought I mistakenly started the engine with the remote start capability while the key was in my pocket. I reported the problem to the car dealer and at my request they disengaged the remote start feature on the vehicle, recently the car was left running all night for the second time so I apparently forgot to turn it off, I am elderly and hard of hearing and can hardly hear the engine running, I wear a hearing aid. It runs very quietly. Once I loaned my daughter the car and she encountered the same problem of not turning off the engine, I learn from internet post that countless reports have been made and several deaths by carbon monoxide entering homes have occurred due to this problem, I understand the keyless ignition system has been around for many years and is installed in many different vehicles, I was not aware of it until I got my car. I feel a safety recall should be issued to correct the problem before more people get killed, the public should be made aware of it without further delay since countless reports have already been made. Please acknowledge receipt of my report. Thank you.
