My headlights, dome lights and tail lights were flickering changed alternator. Kept doing it took it to the dealership in Daphne, Alabama. Had it put on the machine. They told me it was because it was a refurbished alternator. I finally found a new one in Tampa fla. So I ordered it and had it put on. And it is still doing it. The danger of this is that sometimes they will go off. And you can't see anything if it's dark. There was no warning light prior to the problem. The dealership said its because the refurbished alternator was strong enough. That was the findings from them. But like I said even after the new one was put on its still doing it. This has been going on for a couple of months

1: the back-up camera display may suddenly go dark while you-??re in the middle of reversing 2: the vehicle would not start and something stalls when driving with with a boost off and had the vehicle serviced twice for this issue, but to no availability answer. The Nissan Dealership can-??t find any problems.

At random times when the car is started the engine starts but none of the instruments in the dashboard (digital gauge, sensors, etc...) including the stereo would turn on. In addition power steering is not functional. It takes several tries of restarting the car in order to get all the gauges, sensors, stereo and power steering to function. This issur can happen when the car is completely off and it is turned on. I even took a video showing the issue.
