What owners report
Owners of this model year most often describe the continuously variable transmission losing power, refusing to accelerate or dropping into a reduced-speed mode, usually on long highway runs, in hot weather or on grades; many say shutting the car off and letting it cool restores normal operation temporarily. A second frequent theme is the dashboard becoming sticky, shiny and reflective, creating glare across the windshield. Other recurring reports involve the air bag warning light and passenger seat sensor, and occasional stalling or no-start conditions.
- Transmission and drivetrain
CVT loses power / drops speed on long drives or hills
Mentioned in 20 of 60 sampled complaints
Owners describe the car suddenly slowing on the highway, sometimes from 65-75 mph down to 20-40 mph, with the gas pedal unresponsive and the engine revving without the vehicle picking up speed. Several say the condition appears after an hour or more of continuous driving, on grades, or in hot weather, and a whining noise may accompany it. Many report that turning the engine off and letting the car sit for a while restores power, and dealers or mechanics variously advised a transmission replacement or that the vehicle was outside any coverage. Mostly reported between roughly 50,000 and 180,000 miles, frequently after extended highway driving, in hot weather or uphill.
What to check: Ask whether the CVT fluid was serviced and whether the vehicle has ever gone into reduced-power mode; a long test drive at highway speed, ideally uphill, is worth doing. Service bulletins describe diagnostic procedures for the reduced-speed fail-safe condition.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“The car started slowing down in the freeway and it lost power while I was in the carpool so I drove carefully to the emergency lanes on the side risking getting hit by a car cause it didn't have any power or shifting. I though the transmission went bad. I turn off the car for five minutes and started it again and I try to move the car again and it went well. …”
NHTSA complaint #11397041, filed 2021-02, 83,000 miles“This car has just 101,000 miles and the transmission is not doing the overdrive. I read into it and alot of other people has the same problem Nissan should take the vehicles and fix it its not like we pay 5 bucks for a car its not even paid off and I already have problems. I went to see what wrong and its the torque converter clutch.”
NHTSA complaint #11326895, filed 2020-06, 101,099 miles - Body and structure
Melting, sticky dashboard with windshield glare
Mentioned in 14 of 60 sampled complaints
Owners describe the top of the dashboard becoming soft, tacky and shiny, sometimes giving off a chemical odor, and spreading from the base of the windshield toward the steering wheel. The reflective surface produces glare on the glass that owners say makes it hard to see the road in sunlight or at night. Complaints describe dealers declining to help or quoting a dashboard replacement, with owners often told the car is outside warranty coverage. Reported from as low as 12,000 miles to about 120,000 miles, and described as worsening in hot, sunny climates and over summer months.
What to check: Look at the dashboard in direct sun and check for a tacky or glossy surface and reflection on the windshield; ask whether the dash has ever been replaced or covered.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“Dash is melting and shiny creating a glare on the windshield making it impossible to see when driving. This started years ago and only gets worse. It has been reported several times to dealer. I have to drive but it is very dangerous and I cannot believe Nissan is taking the chance and not fixing this problem.”
NHTSA complaint #11360956, filed 2020-09, 40,000 miles“My dashboard is starting to melt. This year, in early march I noticed it was very sticky and really soft to the touch. My hand would dent it with slight pressure. A slight glare started to develop in the windshield and it worsened during the summer. I do not use any chemical cleaners, just wipe my car with a damp cloth, so I was at a loss until I got online recently and found this was a known issue with Altima models. …”
NHTSA complaint #11372928, filed 2020-11, 60,000 miles - Vehicle speed control
Loss of acceleration linked to mass air flow sensor
- 42 complaints (10%)
- median 100,250 mi at 6.0 yrs old (30 state mileage)
- filed 2012–2024
Owners report the car decelerating on the highway without warning and the accelerator pedal having little or no effect, sometimes with the traction control light coming on. Some had a mass air flow sensor replaced, and a few noted the problem returned afterward; others were told the vehicle was out of warranty. Reported from around 47,000 to 215,000 miles, typically at highway speeds.
What to check: Ask whether the mass air flow sensor or throttle-related codes have been addressed, and request a scan tool check for stored and pending engine codes.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“I had driven about 350 miles using the cruise control I would accelerate or cancel and then accelerate with traffic this worked throughout my trip until I reached between 350 to 400 miles then it stopped working for acceleration at 75 miles an hour would not go any faster with the steering column controls or the gas pedal”
NHTSA complaint #11350825, filed 2020-08, 103,000 miles“Something happened to the mass airflow sensor where it limits the RPM and slows the car down a lot almost made a accident happen I took it to my mechanic he told me it was normal and I would have to take it to Nissan to get it fixed but that he sees that a lot”
NHTSA complaint #11377845, filed 2020-12, 120,000 miles - Engine
Engine stalls or cuts off while driving
- 16 complaints (4%)
- median 71,000 mi at 4.9 yrs old (15 state mileage)
- filed 2014–2020
Owners describe the engine shutting off without warning at low speeds or while turning, sometimes with no warning light, and then restarting after one or more attempts. Other complaints describe intermittent no-start conditions and a check engine light that could not be reproduced at the dealer or an independent shop. In some reports the vehicle was serviced on schedule and the cause was never confirmed. Scattered across the range, from around 40,000 to 80,000 miles, often at low speed or while turning.
What to check: Ask for any stored diagnostic codes and whether the ECM has been reprogrammed; a scan for pending codes before purchase is inexpensive.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“My 2012 Nissan Altima 2.5 sl cut off while I was driving yesterday. I was going about 15 MPH and making a right turn when the car cut off in the middle of the turn. There were no warning lights before, during or after the incident. I was able to coast into the parking lot where I restarted the car. There was of a tank of gas in the car and all of the battery cables were secure. I had the battery and alternator checked and both were fine. There are 76,979 miles on the car. …”
NHTSA complaint #11373030, filed 2020-11, 76,979 miles“On 8/17/2020 at 11:30am I was driving at approximately 15 MPH when everything in my car, including the engine shut down with no warning. I quickly placed the vehicle in park and after 2 attempts my car restarted with no other problems that day. On 8/18/2020 at approximately 1750hrs after exiting the expressway, again my car shut down while driving 10-15 MPH, after 2 attempts my it restarted. The car currently has 46,000 miles, I am the original owner and the car is serviced as scheduled by manufacturer. …”
NHTSA complaint #11350226, filed 2020-08, 46,000 miles - Air bags
Air bag warning light / passenger seat occupant sensor
- 52 complaints (12%)
- median 51,000 mi at 4.4 yrs old (37 state mileage)
- 14 mention a crash, fire or injury
- owner-quoted repair $1,400 (median of 7 quotes)
- filed 2012–2026
Owners report the passenger air bag indicator staying on the "off" setting even with an adult seated, or the air bag warning light flashing or staying lit while driving. In several cases a dealer diagnosed the occupant classification sensor or seat cushion as needing replacement, sometimes quoting around $1,000, and some owners say they were told the vehicle was not included in a related recall. Most often reported between about 28,000 and 80,000 miles.
Recall 11V408000Recall 12V0550001 related service bulletin
What to check: With the ignition on, confirm the passenger air bag status reads correctly with an adult in the seat, and check that the air bag warning light goes out after the bulb check.
2 excerpts from owner complaints in NHTSA records
“The air bag warning light for the front passenger side started going off any time the car is on - indicating there is no airbag functioning even when someone is sitting in the seat. Took the car to Nissan dealership, and they say the whole seat cushion needs to be replaced because the sensor is not working. Cost about $1000.”
NHTSA complaint #11327004, filed 2020-06, 93,000 miles“The contact owns a 2012 Nissan Altima. The contact stated while starting the vehicle, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the OCS control unit was malfunctioning. The dealer determined that the front passenger’s side seat needed to be replaced. The dealer charged a fee to repair the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 78,000.”
NHTSA complaint #11559125, filed 2023-12, 78,000 miles
Buying note. These cars are old enough that transmission condition matters more than almost anything else, so budget for a thorough highway test drive and a pre-purchase inspection that includes reading transmission and engine codes. Check the dashboard for a sticky, reflective surface and confirm the air bag warning and passenger-seat indicator behave normally.

NHTSA complaint #11171967, filed 2019-01, 160,000 milesEngine: “As I was starting to slow down in preparation of taking a turn off the frontage road my car completely shut off, my brakes and steering locked and luckily I was able to complete my turn into a gas station where I immediately put it in park and restarted via push start., 2 days later this occurred again on a fairly busy street where I repeated the steps to start it again. …”
NHTSA complaint #11228596, filed 2019-07, 161,000 milesOther or unknown: “My 2012 Nissan Altima's sunroof is leaking, whether driving or parked. I have had the drains cleaned, the headliner removed and still have this issue. Upon researching this problem it seems to be a problem on infiniti's and Nissan's since 2003. This problem needs to be fixed by Nissan, being it's an ongoing issue in all models. I have spent hundred's of dollars trying to have this corrected.”
NHTSA complaint #11375980, filed 2020-11, 50,000 milesAir bags: “Takata recall - the light on my air bags pops up randomly when I drive it. There could be nothing in the passenger seat and it will still light up. I have asked the service men at the Nissan service in woodbridge, va to check this problem when I have taken it in for servicing but they said it was nothing. They will not fix it. I am a woman and I don't know these things until a recall is sent out. What should I do?”
