general problems of the 2017 Nissan Altima

When driving down the street car shuts off lights flicker on and off continuously sometimes it don’t turn back on sometimes it does but I usually just coast until it turns back on very dangerous if on freeway or heavy traffic also the brake light and and trac lights go on when this happens. When stepping on gas the rpm’s go up really high like the transmission is going out.

I came out in the morning and the whole inside of my car had smoke damage, there seems to be what looked like a wire issue that has caused a fire in the center council of my Nissan . Thank god by the grade of god the fire went out by its self . I do not want this to happen to anyone else.

All 4 door lock actuators airbag system malfunctioning cvt slipping at 83,000 miles broken motor mount.

April-may, key fob not being recognized so changed the battery in key fob 4 times. May, driving at 55mph on i495 beltway, pushed on gas and did not get gas. Immediately put on flasher and drifted to right curb. Dashboard was still lit. Turned the car off. Within minutes restarted the car and went where I was going. I had autozone run a diagnostic and they said the car was fine. Drove another couple of weeks before it happened again. This time the car would not restart and I was stopped in a very dangerous location so I had aaa tow it to my residence. The next day the car started. I drove another two weeks before reoccurring. I was able to drive it home and it has been parked. There are never any warning, check engine light, etc. A Nissan mechanic told me the symptoms I told him sounds like an issue with the sensor mobilizer. I google searched and found a recall for the Nissan rogue but not the Nissan Altima. I did a VIN report and it showed 0 recalls. I definitely have a serious safety issue. Without warning the car gets no response from the gas pedal.

I was at work, the car was parked and off for more than 4 hours, came out and my car was on fire. Passenger driver side, at that point me and coworkers were rushing buckets of water and dumping them on my car. The fire department investigated and it was the cooling fan wiring that caused the fire.

My car is periodically not accelerating at a stop when I push on the gas pedal.

The backup camera lense has become blurry and makes it harder to recognize objects. My vehicle has only 38k + miles on it. I own a 2017 1/2 Nissan Altima sv.

The car delays to accelerate from a stopped position. While sitting at traffic lights you can press the gas all the way to the floor and the car will not accelerate for a few seconds and then slingshot you forward. After this happens the car will not change gears and revs to 5000 rpms while in the middle of traffic. If you can safely pull off to the side of the road and turn the car off for a few seconds and restart it, the car resumes to function normally. This is extremely dangerous, especially when making left hand turns with children in the car. In my research, this a known problem to Nissan and there has been no recall.

Speakers randomly stop working during a drive. No longer will come. Back on. As well as the door button to unlock the vehicle on the door handle on the driver side doesn't work at all and constant stereo issues. Stereo doesn't always provide connected devices current song playing.

The vehicle shuts off while driving, does not maintain a solid speed, increases and decreases speed on it own, when stopped the vehicle with not go when the gas pedal is pressed, it will take a few moments and then accelerate at a really high speed or force. The windows randomly stop working, the lights flicker on and off, the steering column tightens and the vehicle randomly shuts off while driving it on the road. It will display that the key is missing and turn off. It has taken several minutes to restart the car. This happens during idle and in motion, on the highway or in the city.

Driver side rear door wont lock as well as window does not go down all the way.

Push button start fails in driveway.

My car get crazy electrical driving on the highway the transmition sleep alone 5 minuts later car turn on by self like nothing happend when star happend I try to stop the car brake dont work car still runnig only think its work emergency brake.

Ii noticed a weird smell coming from the engine for a about month but didnt think anything of it. I was driving on my way to work when my car started smoking, shut off, and caught on fire! had this car for not even 1 year when this incident happened. Took good care of the car, took it to get oil changes. Not sure how this can randomly happen.

I have less that 8000 miles on vehicle. I'm a disabled veteran with a service related disability. I've had the car maybe two years. I was on the I-12 and the car begin to decelerate off and on and then stalled on me in the middle of the off ramp. I could have been killed or injured. Car still isnt paid off. I've read other year modles with same issues and no fixes either help or solve the problem. What or my rights and currently awaiting for dealer to look at car.

Since the start of 2018 I have had my car shut off while driving. I have taken it multiple dealerships to help solve this issue. Every time they came back and said that they could not duplicate the problem and nothing could do for me. I have reached out to the manufacture they also said the same thing they could not do anything. This is a huge safety that I stated. This is still under manufacture warranty and they will not do anything.

Transmission problems brake system is horrible, constantly have to replace brakes and rotors powertrain and other problems I've made several complaints to Nissan, I have put so much money in this car! compressor went out almost 7 months after I purchased this car. I would give Nissan a 0 rating on the 2017 Nissan Altima.

Have electrical issues with my vehicle. 1st the windows wouldn't roll down, and now all electrical features on the vehicle doesn't work ( power locks, rear view camera, turning signals, doors dont lock with remote, and car doesnt shift out of park unless I use the shift lock release button). Vehicle was stationary and it happened on July 6 2018.

First day of major heat wave. Fire on side of traveled road as traffic starts to move the 2017 Altima 3. 5 engine car with anout 9500 miles on it suddenly without any warning looses power and gas peddle has no response. Car felt heavy rolls backwards towards edge as it seemed it had shut down automatically. Try to restart and won't start until 4th try. Still heavy with loss of power. Managed to drive pass the danger area not knowing why a new veichle would shut down without notice. Doing some research now and getting scared. It sounds similar to other Nissan veichle problems. Worried this is a dangerous car to drive.

When vehicles put in reverse and the back up camera is engaged most of the time the screen is very dark you have to put the car into park and then back into reverse again to see. When vehicle is put in reverse and the back up camera is engaged most of the time the screen is very dark you have to put the car into park and then back into reverse again to see. This creates a safety hazard when trying to back up out of tight areas and has happened several times over the last few weeks for.

The insulation that wraps the electrical cabling to engine and other working parts to car are wrapped with a corn and soil product and rats ate the inside of my car to the point that the car would not work. It is 5 months old with 7,000 miles.
