1999 Nissan Maxima Electrical system Problems

“I have 1999 Nissan Maxima and it started giving problem with the ignition coil when it had only 50000 miles and the mechanics were not able to find which coil was having the problem, and finally asked me to change all the six coils for around $1000.00. They also told me this is seen in many Maxima's and infinity i30.”

“My 1999 Nissan Maxima will display service engine soon light and cannot be reset. I have replaced the ignition coils and spark plugs plus the air temp sensor. This code p1320 is always on and there seems to be many other Nissan owners with this problem.”

“Just found out that we should replace all 6 coils in our 1999 Maxima. Nissan was aware of this problem and decided to rip us off even more (since the car is falling apart in eveyway possible) by only offering replacement coils - which are better instead of a recall. It wasn't until I had the coil problem that I learned that it was a problem in all Nissan '99 maximas. It is costing me over $700!”

“I need to replace the following for my 99 Nissan Maxima so far:- (1) 2 oxygen sensors. (2) 1 engine control module (3) 6 ignition coils and 1 condenser now, the traction control system is not working. My Maxima has only 52,000 miles. All these repairs right after 36,000 miles. Nissan should recall all these. However, I know NHTSA won't recall it because there is no injuries. Thank you very much.”

“I bought a Nissan Maxima 1999 for my daughter only to find out that she got in her car one morning after just having her vehicle at a mechanic for a check up/service. They told her the car was fine. She then proceeded down the road to the freeway, stopped for gas and the car would not start. Panicked by the 'area' of town she was in I had a tow truck from aaa dispatched to meet her as soon as possible. The vehicle was towed back to the mechanic and we were told that the key to the vehicle had become deprogrammed. …”
