The contact stated that after unbuckling her front driver side seat belt and standing outside of the vehicle, she reached over to grab her purse. The contact seatbelt had not fully retracted as she reached over for the purse and as a result, the seat belt's latch plate hit the contact in her abdomen. After the failure occurred, the seat belt no longer fastened.  The contact sustained pain to the abdomen for a couple days and sought medical treatment at an urgent care facility. The contact was informed by a doctor that she had suffered a hematoma to her abdomen and  was informed that the soreness would last approximately 4-6 weeks. The contact initially reached out to her auto insurance who then referred her to a dealer or the manufacturer. The vehicle was towed to a dealer where she was informed that there were no recalls and was given an estimate for the repair. The contact then reached out to an independent mechanic who linked the contact's failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 06V459000 (Electrical System). The contact then brought a print out of the recall campaign to another dealer where she was informed that the vehicle was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.","canonical_url":"https://api.morvs.ai/vehicle-complaint/2205491"},{"cmplid":"2203929","date_received":"2026-05-06","make":"NISSAN","model":"ALTIMA","model_year":2010,"deaths":0,"injured":0,"fire":1,"crash":0,"component_desc":"ELECTRICAL SYSTEM","description":"Vehicle caught on fire my be a electrical problem","canonical_url":"https://api.morvs.ai/vehicle-complaint/2203929"},{"cmplid":"2203046","date_received":"2026-05-04","make":"NISSAN","model":"ALTIMA","model_year":2020,"deaths":0,"injured":0,"fire":0,"crash":1,"component_desc":"ENGINE","description":"The CVT issue remains with this car even though I have complained.

On [Date of Incident], while the vehicle was parked, a gust of wind caused the trunk lid to slam shut unexpectedly. The metal door latch struck me directly in the frontal region of the skull, resulting in an injury that required medical monitoring for potential brain trauma. The current design relies exclusively on torsion bars or gas struts to maintain an open position. These components are prone to wear and environmental fatigue, and they lack a mechanical \"positive lock\" or secondary safety catch. Consequently, the trunk lid acts as a sail in windy conditions, easily overcoming the lift support and turning the heavy lid and metal latch assembly into a falling hazard for any consumer loading or unloading the vehicle. While Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) focus heavily on internal trunk releases (Standard No. 401), there is a significant gap regarding the prevention of sudden, gravity-induced or wind-induced lid collapse. I am requesting that the NHTSA: Investigate the frequency of \"unintended closing\" injuries related to Nissan Altima trunk lift systems. Evaluate whether the lift-support specifications for this model are sufficient to withstand common wind gusts. Mandate a mechanical locking mechanism or more robust secondary safety catches to prevent these lids from becoming dangerous projectiles.
