2006 Nissan Altima

I OWN A 2006 NISSAN ALTIMA WITH 28 K MILES CONTROL BUTTONS FOR DRIVER SIDE WINDOW NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. REPORTED TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP AFTER MONTHS OF HAVING TO HOLD DOWN MANUALLY CONTROL UP AND DOWN OPERATIONS OF WINDOW. NISSAN DEALERSHIP ASKED WHO HAD PERFORMED PREVIOUS WORK ON WINDOWS AND I TOLD THEM NO ONE ADVISED DEALERSHIP TO CHECK WINDOW FOR POSSIBLE # TO VERIFY TRUTH ON OUR BEHALF. DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITHOUT ME PAYING THE COST OF $ 100.00 SAYS SOME HOW OR ANOTHER WINDOW UNADJUSTED ITSELF AND NOW NEEDS TO BE READJUSTED. ADVISED DEALER I WAS NOT GOING TO PAY FOR A DEFECTIVE WINDOW. WINDOW WILL ROLL ITSELF DOWN MUST HOLD FIRMLY THE CONTROL BUTTON IN ORDER TO SECURE SAFETY OF VEHICLE. *TR

I HAD A 2003 NISSAN ALTIMA THAT STALLED ON I95 (3) TIMES BEFORE IT WAS CORRECTLY DIAGNOSED AS A CRANK SENSOR ISSUE AND BECAME A MAJOR RECALL FOR NISSAN. IN JULY 2006 I LEASED ANOTHER NISSAN ALTIMA AFTER THE ENGINE WAS COMPLETED DAMAGED ON MY 2003 ALTIMA DUE TO ANOTHER RECALL REGARDING OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUES. I INQUIRED A FEW MONTHS AGO AT A ROUTINE SERVICE VISIT IF MY CURRENT 2006 NISSAN WAS PART OF THE "CRANK SENSOR" RECALL THAT WAS RECENTLY ISSUED AND TOLD IT WAS. I HAD NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION IN THE MAIL FROM EITHER NISSAN OR THE DEALER, THIS RECALL I WAS TOLD WAS CORRECTED DURING MY VISIT. ON SATURDAY MARCH 29,2008 I WAS DRIVING ON I95 IN THE THIRD LANE AT APPROX 65-70 MPH AND THE CAR STALLED WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I WAS ABLE TO COAST ACROSS 3 LANES AND GET HALF IN THE BREAKDOWN LANE AT WHICH TIME I DEPARTED THE CAR GOT TO A SAFE AREA OUT OF HARM'S WAY OF TRAFFIC AND CONTACTED THE STATE TROOPERS FOR ASSISTANCE. THEY CAME AND STAYED WITH ME UNTIL THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED AND TOWED ME TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP. I WAS GIVEN A RENTAL CAR SINCE THE CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO START AGAIN WITHOUT STALLING WAS CONTACTED ON MONDAY MARCH 31, 2008 BY THE DEALER TO LET ME KNOW THE CAR STARTED NORMALLY THEY HAD DROVE IT FOR SEVERAL MILES AND NO PROBLEM. THE COMMENT MADE WAS THEY WILL DRIVE AGAIN ON TUESDAY AND IF NO ISSUES THEY CAN'T EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED. SINCE I ALREADY HAD A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE WITH MY 2003 ALTIMA AND SAME CAR DEALER I'M CONFIDENT THIS PROBLEM WILL REOCCUR AGAIN AND THIS TIME ONCE AGAIN ENDANGER MY LIFE AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD WITH ME AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. PLEASE ASSIST ME IN GETTING THEIR ATTENTION FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS REGARDING THIS LIFE THREATENING ISSUE. I'M SURE I'M NOT THE ONLY VEHICLE WITH THIS PROBLEM, SINCE MY 2003 ISSUE TURNED INTO A MAJOR RECALL FOR APPROX 650,000 VEHICLES. *TR
