I am a Nissan Maxima lover!! I have had a 95 max, a 00 max, and now a 04 max. I had no major problems what so ever with my Maximas except for this 04. This car is literally driving me crazy! first the car started jerking. Then my windows started sticking my driver and passenger window will go down then sometimes not come back up. Then later it started making this embarrassing rattling noise. Everytime I got an oil change it would stop for a while. I needed a dependable car which is why I got another Nissan but about two weeks ago I was grocery shopping with my kids and as I turned on the highway headed home the whole car shut down in the middle of traffic. How dangerous is that. I managed to coast to a gas station and had to call aaa to tow it home now I am stuck with a car that I cannot drive and have to continue to make car payments on. Ive been told it was a mixture of my transmission and timing chain. There have been several reports on this site with transmission and timing chain problems. Unless Nissan does something about this my next car will be a Ford fusion! love my Maxima but cannot endanger my kids with an undependable vehicle. With all that business Nissan gets what harm will it cause for you to help your customers fix cars that you caused the problem to with this faulty engine and transmission problems. It would keep customers like me coming back to Nissans. I do like the new models but I dont want to go through this problem with a newer car. Nissan what are you going to do?????.

I brought my car to Nissan for service because I heard a whining noise coming from the engine. I was informed by Nissan that the timing chain on my vehicle may need to be replaced. I have a 2005 Nissan Maxima with only 50,000 miles. If this part is not replaced, the car will stop immediately and will require towing. I'm disturbed by this issue, because Nissan was made aware of this issue with their 2005-2008 models, since 2006, and have only listed this as a bulletin. There have been many complaints and forums on this issue, however they do not deem this as a recall. I feel this is a safety issue, because if a vehicle halts in the middle of a highway, this can be a disaster waiting to happen. Also there may be extensive damage to the engine. I also have a 1995 Maxima that has never undergone a timing chain replacement. I'm hoping that someone will look into this issue.

2004 Nissan Maxima: October 7, 2009 the check engine light came on, several miles later as we entered our drive way the car started to shut down. I notice some jerking and metal rattling noise as I slow down. After stopping the car would not go forward. At this time the car would only go in reverse, but once I turn the engine off I could not start the car again. The dealership were I purchase the car has done all the services, and yes they did flush the transmission. Type of transmission fluid is not know.

I purchased a 2004 Nissan Maxima in 2006. The first year my tires were on recall. That same year my car had a rattling noise when you start the car. One day driving on the city street with my kids the car completely shut down. The engine light was on. A few months later the car was not driving past 20 mph. I had the car towed to the dealer who said it was a cam crank sensor. That cost me 441. 46 cents. The car was now driving on 4th and 5th gear. That was on 10/10/o8. This past year on 1/22/09 the dealer called me to say that Nissan recalled the rear suspension membrane. I towed the vehicle to get fixed I was then told my transmission was gone. Nissan did not want to pay for this bill. I paid 3,000 to replace the trasmission. My car is still rattling.

When accelerating, there's a rattling sound/noise coming from around the engine area.
