2012 Nissan Altima

I JUST RECENTLY REPLACED THE BATTERY IN MY 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA AND NOW I AM HAVING THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS: GAUGE CLUSTER IS NOT WORKING AT ALL (ENGINE TEMP, RPM, SPEEDOMETER, GAS). EVERYTHING ELSE IS WORKING FINE. I HAD ALL THE FUSES CHECKED AND ALL ARE WORKING PROPERLY. I TOOK TO DEALER, THEY ARE SAYING REPLACE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, PROGRAM AND RETEST FOR BCM FAILURE(2 CONCERNS-INST CLUSTER NO COMM, POWER AND GROUND PRESENT, U1000 AND CAN SYSTEM DIAG FAILED CLUSTER CAN NOT GET MILEAGE) RETEST FOR BCM FAILURE AFTER INSTALL CLUSTER IS REPLACED (2ND CONCERN IS CAR IS HARD TO TURN ON AND OFF NEED TO REPLACE CLUSTER AND RETEST FOR POSSIBLE BCM FAILURE. MY CAR WAS FINE 1 WEEK AGO AND PASSED THE STATE SAFETY INSPECTION ON 03/25/2017 AT A CERTIFIED INSPECTION PLACE. I HAVE PROOF OF ALL THOSE COPIES IT IS TRULY MANUFACTURE ( NISSAN ) PROBLEM WITH KIND OF VEHICLE MANUFACTURING PRACTICE. I WOULD NEVER BUY ANOTHER NISSAN IN MY LIFE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE STATIONARY, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START WHEN PROMPTED BY THE KEY FOB. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK TO STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 113,090.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A MECHANIC WHO WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO EXHIBIT A LOSS OF POWER AND WAS TAKEN FOR FURTHER INSPECTION AND DIAGNOSIS. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

ALL THREE PASSENGER DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS ARE FAILING. THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY, WITH THE ENGINE AND ACCESSORIES OFF. WHEN I ACTIVATE THE LOCK WITH THE BUTTON ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE DRIVER'S DOOR, ONE OR MORE DOORS SOMETIMES FAIL TO LOCK OR UNLOCK. THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN IN COLD WEATHER. THE PROBLEM MAY HAPPEN LESS OFTEN WHEN I USE THE REMOTE FOB TO LOCK/UNLOCK THE DOORS. IF THE CAR THINKS IT IS LOCKED, AND I OPEN AN UNLOCKED PASSENGER DOOR, THE ALARM ACTIVATES. THIS MAKES IT VERY INCONVENIENT FOR ME TO MANUALLY CHECK THAT ALL OF MY DOORS ARE LOCKED. IF MY CAR DOES NOT LOCK, MY PERSONAL EFFECTS ARE AT RISK OF THEFT. AS A SAFETY CONCERN, IF MY CAR IS NOT SECURED, I AM AT GREATER RISK OF BEING CAR-JACKED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 NISSAN ALTIMA. WHILE IN PARK, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND "INTELLIGENT KEY ISSUE, WILL NOT START" WAS DISPLAYED ACROSS THE MESSAGE BOARD.

LIGHT IN THE GLOVEBOX DOESNOT HAVE A SWITCH. IT TURNS ON AS SOON AS THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TURNED ON. MY GLOVEBOX WAS FULL OF SOME PAPER AND I OPENED THE GLOVE BOX TO FIN DHTE PAPERS BECAME VERY HOT TO TOUCH AND I FELT LIKE THEY WOULD BURN ANY MOMENT. A SWITCH SHOULD BE INCLUDED SO THAT THE LIGHT TURNS ON ONLY WHEN THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT IS OPENED. ANY CLOTH OF EASILY FLAMMABLE MATERIAL CAN CATCH FIRE DUE TO HEAT AND GO UNNOTICED.
