2007 Nissan ALTIMA HYBRID Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1175499
Internal NHTSA #	10705715
Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	ALTIMA HYBRID
Model Year	2007
File date	31/03/15
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	When i was driving on a highway at approximately 60mph, car gave shriek warning beacon, with all indicators lit up & abruptly came to a halt. In this incident car lost all electrical power. Hence i was only able to open the door via mechanical knob and run to the shoulder to save my life. Car has to be towed from freeway to a mechanic shop in the neighborhood. Mechanic found the battery fuse being melted & recommended me to take the car to the dealer. Upon diagnosis, dealer confirms that main wiring harness that goes from the engine through the vehicle to the ev battery that is located in the trunk of the vehicle is shorting out due to the wire being melted/harness being melted causing a resistance within the cable & hence causing the vehicle to stall & lose all power. This is similar to another complaint filed on nhtsa with id number : 10560398 the car is well maintained for past 7 years with all major & minor milestone maintenance was performed by the dealership. Looks like checking the electrical systems of the car was not part of nissan's recommended plan. I never received any recommendation from dealer during any of my maintenance visit about failure in the electrical systems. I am lucky to be alive, despite my car abruptly came to a halt in freeway. But, nissan should consider recalling this model of vehicle and include check for electrical systems in their recommended maintenance plan. Electrical system of a car is equally important as the mechanical components of the car, which needs to be frequently inspected for adequacy of operation.
