Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	ALTIMA
Model Year	2009
File date	12/08/19
Component	STRUCTURE:BODY
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Door handles on car break internally preventing door from being unlocked or opened from inside or outside. Dealer has replaced two at my expense and now the other two are broken with the same symptoms. No abuse or accident involved they just alll of the sudden stop working. Concern is in an emergency (fire, accident, etc..) passengers or driver would not be able to exit car easily or at all in a timely basis, possibly causing severe injury or death. I have contacted nissan and they lodged a complaint but nothing more. I have read of multiple instances on the internet with nissan owners having the same problem. Fix is very expensive when done at the dealer and i belive a recall/reimbursement is due.
