Description of the problem	Prob #4 on august 9, 2006, i went to leave for work and my car would not start at all. When i turned the key it sounded as if it would start, but it would not turn over. It is an alternator problem. I had enough with this car. After reading and printing all the complaints on this website, i ended up with 42 pages of complaints, 3 to a page. A number of the complaints had alternator problems and the maxima dying on them while driving around the same mileage that my car is at right now, 27,300. My car is only 3 years old and it would not start!!! When my husband came home from work it started right up for him. I refuse to drive this car now. I am pregnant and cannot risk being stuck on the side of the road somewhere. My husband called the nissan dealership and spoke the man who sold us the car, we are going to try to get out of the lease. I have a complete lemon. On top of all this, i received two recall notices on this car. The first one is for corrosion in the back bumper for "salty" states. Since ny is considered a salty state, i am suppose to get this taken car of by their "caring" dealerships. I called nissan in smithtown, ny and made an appointment for 7/20/06 who lost my appt. I made this appointment a month and half before this. She put the service manager on the phone who told me he cant make an appointment for me until nov! I told him i would call corp and he said go ahead. Another complaint to corp, nothing done. Received another recall notice that the coils in the head rest can go on fire! Not only is the car terrible, but the dealerships are no better. All this money customers spend on this car and the service workers and managers at both habberstad and smithtown are rude & obnoxious. Corp told me to try another dealership! I told her i will not drive all over long island to find a dealership who will actually help their customers, and that the amount of money i paid for this car, no one should be treated this way. Nissan should be investigated. *nm

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
