While driving all the lights come on with a warning that states "malfunction see owners manual" dealership said it needed a battery, replaced the battery and all the lights continues to come on. ABS, crash lights, check engine and other ones. Along with the high beam lights. Can't turn them off without pulling over and restarting the car.

I purchased a Nissan Kicks 2020 7 weeks ago. Yesterday while at a stop light, the engine shut off and then the battery and oil light popped on. This was extremely dangerous as I was on a busy highway and had to panic on what to do. I ended up having to put it in park and cut it back on. After researching this online, I have found other people are having the exact same issue. I checked for a recall and see NONE! How has there not been a recall? I had my three children in the car with me (one being a newborn) and was scared to death!

Sensor that states there has been a malfunction in the front braking system comes on randomly. The AEB system also stops the car at random times when nothing is in the road, good weather, sometimes going 75mph on the highway. Same thing has also happened driving in a parking garage or down a main road. I have also been in cruise control on the highway and this braking system comes on. I thought it was an isolated incident but it has happened at least 6 times. The date below only reflects the most recent incident.

I purchased a 2020 Nissan kick in October 2020. On March 5, 2021, I was in the highway driving when my vehicle suddenly slowed down and would not let me accelerate. My entire transmission blew out and I need a replacement transmission. My vehicle only has 14,000 miles.

Bought 2020 Kicks. It has an serious issue regulating temperature. It seems this car has a blend door issue that does not allow the car to have the temp set at an acceptable level for comfort. Its either too cold or too hot. 60-62 degrees its cold, move to 63 and up and its hot?? in any of Y other cars anything at 68 and below is cool to cold. This is bordering on having drivers being constantly distracted by having to manually adjust the temp repeatedly to maintain comfortable levels. This car is marketed for young adults as an economical/safe approach to a new vehicle. Nissan should fix this before someone get injured being distracted
