2006 Nissan Maxima Problems

WELL MY CAR WHILE DRIVING IT WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF IN ME WHILE IM DRIVING IT. AFTER IT CRANKS BACK UP IT IS VERY SLOW TO TAKE OFF

I BOUGHT THIS 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA SL WITH 137,806 MILES. I DROVE IT HOME. THE NEXT DAY, IT WOULD NOT START, I WENT AND BOUGHT A BATTERY, ON THE WAY THE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON., THEN THE TCS AND SLIP LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC SHOP, HE KEEP IT ALMOST 4 WEEKS, AND THEN TOLD ME IT WAS NOT WORTH FIXING/REPAIRING IT. I COULD NOT BELIEVE, I JUST SPENT OVER $4,000.00 ON THIS CAR AND I ONLY DROVE IT HOME!!, I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER WELL KNOWN MECHANIC SHOP, HE TELLS ME THAT IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION, MOTOR MOUNTS, SENSORS AND PROBABLY MORE. IT IS NOT WORTH FIXING IT. I AM A 57 YEAR OLD LADY AND I DONT HAVE THE MONEY TO BUY ANOTHER CAR AND I DONT HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT. I HEAR THAT THESE CARS HAVE ALOT OF TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND MORE. I WISH I HAD KNOWN THAT BEFORE BUYING IT.

SUDDENLY BROKE DOWN WHILE IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. CAR WAS TOWED AND HAD CAM SENSORS REPLACED. TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SLIP SHORTLY AFTERWARDS. THE ENGINE WOULD REV BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. IT THEN WOULD BEGIN TO ABRUPTLY SHIFT BUT NOT GAIN SPEED. THERE WAS ALSO KNOCKING WHEN SHIFTING FROM DRIVE TO PARK AND VICE VERSA. WOULD AT TIMES BE STUCK AT 20MPH OR THE ENGINE WOULD REV. HAD TO PULL OVER ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR FEARING THAT IT MIGHT ACCELERATE AND REAR END ANOTHER VEHICLE OR ABRUPTLY LOSE SPEED AND MYSELF BE REAR ENDED. ALSO LETS OFF A HORRIBLE SULFUR SMELL. WAS DIAGNOSED WITH TRANSMISSION FAILURE ON 8/22/13 WITH 48500 MILES. *TT

This Vehicle is Severely Defective. This Vehicle is not safe to be on the road. This Vehicle has had several repairs for the same repair issue but the problem still exists. I have spent thousands on this Vehicle and this vehicle is still inoperative and not drivable. This Vehicle is a hazard for the road. VEHICLE IS UNSAFE! VEHICLE has still not been Repaired. Please I like to be Compensated and Reimbursed for the Loss I have suffered. Please compensate and/or reimbursed me for the $10,000.00 I lost in a Defective, Inoperable, and Unsafe Vehicle. Thank God My Child and I did not get seriously hurt while I was driving this vehicle. I remember one incident while I was driving this vehicle: Right in the middle of me driving this vehicle I was going about 40-45 mph on the highway, the vehicle just shut down all of a sudden. The entire Electrical System just Shutdown. That was very frightening! So, yes I like to be Fully Compensated for all my troubles with this vehicle.

My brakes dont work unless my 3 dashboard lights come on. Slip, tcs and abs. Sometimes I forget and drive off. When I brake at the light you could here the wires buzzing as if there was a short circuit. Finally on my passenger side in the 'back, the tire was wiggling and noticed some lugs were missing plus the hubs lugs were loose. I haven' t taken to go get it inspected because I dont have money at the moment.

PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR BOARDS RUSTING OUT. MY 2006 MAXIMA HAS 106701 MILES AND HAS BEEN GARAGED SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW. IT NOW FAILED INSPECTION

When you're driving in hazardous conditions the car loses stability and it caused me to go into a spin and hit a wall, anytime it rains you can feel that the car starts to lose grip of the road and I fear for my life every time it remotely starts to rain or the road is wet. And there's a recall on the Nissan Maxima regarding the rear suspension something and the effect of the recall on that vehicle is what's happening to my vehicle.

I BROUGHT MY 2006 MAXIMA NEW AND HAD ALL KIND OF PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR AT THE VERY BEGINNING. EVERYTHING WAS UNDER WARRANTY, BUT WHEN MY CAR HAD ABOUT 62000 MILES THE CAR STARTED SLIPPING AND MISSING GEARS SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY TRANSMISSION WASN'T COVER UNDER THE POWER TRAIN BECAUSE THERE WERE 2 TYPES OF TRANSMISSION PUT INTO THE MAXIMA AND THE ONE THAT MY CAR HAD WAS NOT COVER UNDER THE POWER TRAIN. I CALLED NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICES AND DIDN'T GET ANY SATISFACTION. I HAD TO REPLACE THE TRANS AND MANY OTHER THINGS ON THIS CAR. I WOULD NOT EVER OR SUGGEST THAT ANYONE BUY A NISSAN. I BELIEVED THAT NISSAN KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THE FIRST COMPLAINT WAS EVER MADE. SAME ON YOU NISSAN

MY CAR WAS UNDER 90K MILES WHEN IT EXPERIENCED TRANSMISSION SLIPPAGE, PREMATURE CLUTCH WEAR, OVERHEATING, AND OTHER PROBLEMS THAT ULTIMATELY RESULTED IN SERIOUS AND EXPENSIVE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLES TRANSMISSION.

MY 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA IS SHIFTING GEARS ON ITS ON AS IF THERE IS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. THE STEERING WHEEL KEEPS SHIFTING TO ONE SIDE THE GUYS AT THE WHEEL ALIGNMENT PLACE TOLD ME IT'S THE RACK AND PINION. THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THE RACK AND PINION GOES OUT VERY FAST AND THE PART IS ABOUT 400$. THE GAS LIGHT AND THE LIGHT THAT TELLS YOU THAT YOU NEED COOLANT HAS BEEN ON AND STAYS ON. THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING HOT AND MY CAR HAS A FULL TANK OF GAS.

The contact filed the complaint on behalf of the owner of the 2006 Nissan Maxima.

The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The local dealer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 90,948.

"TAKATA RECALL" TRANSMISSION SLIPPING AND WIRING ON HEADLIGHTS GOING OUT ALL THIS GOING ON WHILE IN MOTION.

BOUGHT CAR ONE YEAR AGO AT 120000 MILES. AFTER 2 MOS, CAR STARTED JUMPING WHILE PRESSING ACCELERATION AND THEN BEGAN TO JUST STOP WHILE I WAS DRIVING. ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON , HAD CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSORS REPLACED. LESS THAN 2 MOS LATER, CAR WAS STARTING TO STALL AGAIN, ACCELERATOR STILL MAKING THE CAR STALL. HAD FUEL SYSTEM CHECKED, WAS FINE. THEN MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN, NOW SAYING CAMSHAFT POSITION TIMING NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MECHANIC TOLD ME THIS IS THE MOST COMMON PROBLEM HE SEES IN NISSAN VEHICLES. SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THE TIMING CHAIN IF THE PROBLEM IS SO COMMON. I RAN INTO A DITCH TWICE AND VERY NEARLY WAS IN AN ACCIDENT WHEN MY CAR CUT OFF WHILE I WAS TURNING AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. I COULDN'T TURN THE WHEEL AND NEARLY CRASHED! THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES. I REPORTED THE ISSUE DIRECTLY TO NISSAN BUT SINCE NO ACCIDENT WAS REPORTED I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY HELP OR ADVICE FROM THEM.

THIS CAR HAS HAD HARDSHIFTS, BETWEEN 2-3 GEARS AND HORRIBLE DOWNSHIFTS. NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THESE ISSUES. FLAIR SHIFTS WHEN COASTING. SLIPPING IN AND OUT OF GEARS. PLEASE HELP! THE CAR SHIFTS ERRATICALLY AND THIS IS DUE TO A PRODUCTION ISSUE WITH THESE TRANSMISSIONS. NISSAN KNOWS OF THESE PROBLEMS AND THAT'S WHY THEY NOW USE CVT TRANSMISSIONS. PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL! *TR

I PURCHASED MY 06' MAXIMA IN 08' I HAD IT FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS AND THE CD PLAYER DOESNT PLAY ANY THING IT SKIPS SPITS THE CD OUT AND AN ERROR MESG. COMES UP. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY "FIXED IT" SO THEY SAY 1 WEEK LATER IT STARTS WITH THE SAME ISSUE I CALLED AND THEY SAID THEY CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT MAYBE ITS THE CD. SO I NEVER GOT THAT ISSUE FIXED. AN OTHER ISSUE IS MY CAR HAS ABOUT 70K MILES AND EVERY TIME THE CAR GOES 20-30 MPH IT HAS A HARD HIT TO CHANGE GEARS EVERY TIME. MY CAR GET SERVICED EVERY 3-4 MONTHS AND NOW I NEED A NEW TRANMISSION!! I ONLY WORK ABOUT 20 MILES FROM WHERE I LIVE HOW CAN THAT BE? ALSO I HAD TO REPLACE SOME KIND OF BRAKE PART. EVERY TIME I WENT TO BRAKE THE CAR MADE THIS NOISE AND IT STARTED TO SHAKE THE SOUND WAS THIS GRINDING SOUND THEN AN OTHER SOUND STARTED LIKE WHEN YOU PRESS THE BRAKES AND THE ROADS ARE WET. BUT SHAKING REAL BAD. I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID ITS W & T ON THE CAR. WHEN I ASKED HIM HOW OFFTEN THIS HAPPENS AND HE SAID NOT THAT OFFTEN SO HOW CAN THAT BE? OTHER THAN THAT ITS LITTLE THING LIKE MY TRUCK LOCK DOESNT STAY PUT I HAVE TO TIGHTEN THE BOLTS OF IT ONCE AWEEK PLEASE MAKE NISSAN DO A RE-CALL I HAVE READ ALL THE COMPALINTS AND THEY ARE ALL THE SAME AND EXPENSIVE ISSUE. *TR

VEHICLE CAME EQUIPPED WITH A FEATURE THAT ALLOWS THE SIDE MIRRORS TO TILT DOWN WHEN PLACED IN REVERSE. HOWEVER, WHEN THE FEATURE IS ACTIVATED FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE MIRROR, THE MIRROR DOES NOT ADJUST PROPERLY BACK TO ITS NORMAL POSITION, WHICH MAY HINDER DRIVERS VIEW, POSSIBLY CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NISSAN WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE MIRROR WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. SEVERAL WEEKS LATER, THE REPLACED MIRROR BEGAN EXHIBITING SAME PROBLEM AS THE DEFECTIVE MIRROR.RETURNED VEHICLE BACK TO NISSAN TWICE AND THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WAS NORMAL. WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE ON HIGHWAY, PASSENGER SIDE MIRROR BEGAN ADJUSTING ON ITS OWN TO A POINT WHERE I COULD NOT SEE VEHICLES ALONGSIDE THE RIGHT OF THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE WAS NOT EVEN PLACED IN REVERSE! RETURNED VEHICLE BACK TO NISSAN, THEY DETERMINED THAT MIRROR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, BUT AT MY EXPENSE, BECAUSE WARRANTY EXPIRED, DESPITE THE FACT THAT I RETURNED THE VEHICLE TWICE FOR THIS PROBLEM WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

THE PASSENGER SEATBELT ON MY 2006 NISSAN MAXIMA ALWAYS LOCKS UP ON MY WIFE JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. SHE IS 5'4 210LBS, IT DOESN'T HAPPEN WHEN SHE DRIVES. I ASKED A FEW OF MY FRIENDS AND TWO OF THEM SAID IT HAPPENS TO THEIR WIVES ALSO IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, ONE IS HEAVY ALSO BUT ANOTHER ISN'T HEAVY AT ALL. NON OF MY MALE FRIENDS THAT SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT HAVE IT HAPPEN. EASTER ON THE WAY HOME SHE GOT MAD AND TOOK THE BELT OFF TWO MILES FROM HOME. THAT'S NOT GOOD. HOW MANY OTHER CARS HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH FEMALES IN THE PASSENGER SEAT? *TR
