If your battery dies, or is disconnected, it resets the automatic feature of the windows in the up direction. To return it to automatic operation, roll the window all of the way down, roll it up and hold the up button for 10 seconds. You will have to do this for each front window. You will have to do this every time that you disconnect the battery.

I had taken the car in to get the defroster and steering wheel fixed and the
service guy said they found it when checking the wireing.
I have spent more hours at the dealership than I have ever spent with any of my other vehicles and they are over 10yrs old

#128 of 130 2010 Maxima....when I start the car the heating and cooling by flustrated

Feb 28, 2013 (7:08 am)

is completely turned OFF. When I turn off the car, say the heat is on 75 and blower on 2nd level. When i reenter the car and start it, NOTHING! I am required to turn the fan on, which in turn, AUTOMATICALLY turns on the AC (in the middle of winter in Michigan).
 
My questions are:
 
1. Why is my heating/cooling completely OFF upon starting the car, especially since it wasnt left that way and....
2. Why does the AC come on when I dont turn it on?
 
The Nissan svc mgr told me "this is all normal and your car has always done this, you just didnt realize it". he added," the ac comes on because there is too much humidity in your car" Really?? Humidity?? Its the middle of winter in Michigan...there is no humidity issue....i say...."balderdash!" i know my car hasnt always done this and it just started this winter.
 
Any suggestions??

I find it absolutely frustrating that the a/c turns on when you start the blower. My 2010 Maxima has always done this which makes no sense. I hope this was rectified in the newer models.

Well after repeatedly returning to the dealer complaining of vibrations and noises that resembled the sound of a whole in a muffler on my 2010 Maxima SV, the dealer finally said the upper motor mounts needed replacing. One was busted and the other was close to it. The ride still was not right so I returned again. This time they stated the transmission required a software update but the vibration is normal. I may not be a mechanic but I don't think I should literally feel something vibrating upon exceleration. I am so frustrated with these so called certified Nissan mechanics.
