There are 3 owner-reported body & structure complaints for the 2024 Nissan Altimain NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Yesterday at around 9:10 AM I was driving home southbound on the New Jersey Parkway around exit 89. It was a clear day. It was about 43°, the sun was out. I was doing the speed limit which was 65 mph. I heard a loud bang and then my moonroof spontaneously exploded and all of the glass fell on me and in the car, luckily I was not hurt. I leased this vehicle a little over two years ago. Ever since I have driven it, I have stated to the dealership in writing and on the phone that I feel it is not right and unsafe. I have had three Popped tires in under a year , granted they were from potholes, but I have been complaining about the tires. I have said repeatedly they don’t feel right there is something wrong with them and they’re not even safe for the road because if you hit anything, it immediately pops out the side wall. They are clearly too thin, and not safe for driving even locally. There is a class action lawsuit against Nissan for spontaneous moonroof explosions and there are tons of people talking about online the inadequacies of the Bridgestone tires on the 2024 Nissan Altima.
The contact owns a 2024 Nissan Altima. The contact stated that on several occasions while the vehicle was parked, the contact observed water draining from the driver’s side door when the door was opened. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the there was a leak in the driver's rear seat through the seat belt and possible the door weld body. The contact stated that the carpet floor, front spacer, and trim assembly needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
There is an obvious gap in the lining of the rear upper left corner of the trim that attaches the back windshield to the top and the car and rear door. I have photos included the dealership admitted to it not existing on their other models from that year and that I was correct although they could do nothing about it because it was an obvious manufacturing defect. I have photos included... Called national Nissan help line for assistance and they called me once and never responded to my emails after that.
