Takara recall - the low-beam headlights in my altima are dangerously dim, and i was told it had nothing to do with my bulbs. I was told by nissan it's a wiring issue but online it states "the material inside the projector bowl wear down, burn off, or scuff up, the projector lens doesn't receive as much light to, well project".

The double safety feature of pressing the break to start the car becomes void when the caliper has an issue even without the brake light engaging to show an issue. The car is tricked into thinking that the break is being pressed and will allow you to start it with just pressing the start button. My 8yr old was in the car playing while i was cleaning it and was also able to put the car in gear due to the mechanical…

I ran low on windshield washer fluid and a light can on notifying me. The next day i noticed that the lane detection system and the car in your blind spot indicator was no working. Causing a safety concern. Come to find out. When you run low on wiper fluid, it deactivates these safety features. I think this is crazy and dangerous. Put in wiper fluid and it corrected the problem. Wow!!!

First this car only has 11,000 miles on. We got the battery change on it last year. But some reason the battery keeps on dying on us. Saturday may 7th the car was working fine and we stop to go food shopping come back out and the car would not start. We had this check out last year and they said nothing was wrong with the car. But there is something going with this car to act up this way.

I keep getting a key id incorrect or key id undetectable when i try to start the car. I have replaced the battery in the key fob and the same issues arise. I have to open and close the car door at least 10 times before i can get the car to start. This could be a safety hazard as i might get stranded somewhere if i shut the car off and it doesn't start. I am getting really tired of this issue and hopefully a recall…
