At low speed car bucks After rain or during humidity-??, interior lights flicker uncontrollably
- Bellerose , NY, USA
A seal around the taillight was not properly sealed which caused rainwater to leak in the car's side body corroding the body harness and control module. Nissan Consumer Affairs is refusing to address the issue. The trunk hatch now pops open on its own and the car alarm goes off randomly making it extremely unsafe and undrivable.

The sunroof firmware programing failed and did not properly close the sunroof. There was no visible gap or signs of failed sealing. Recently, Southern California was hit with two storms. Unfortunately, the vehicle became flooded due to leaking in the sunroof because it did not close properly. The safety of my passenger and myself were put at risk as the dashboard filled with water, hence compromising airbag safety and electronic components. No error or check lights were illuminated. The vehicle has been inspected by both the dealership and my auto insurance representative. There were zero warning lamps, messages, nor symptoms. Had the sunroof firmware been properly coded, this never would have happened.

The climate control drivers seat does not operate. Nissan is aware of the situation and have issued a technical bulletin 1/17/19 Classification #EL18-035 Reference # NTB19-004. There are at least 1000 cases sited on the internet. I would like to know if there will be a recall issued as this is a safety fire hazard.

The liftgate won't open either with the key fob or mannualy every time I have to unhook the battery to reset vehicle was not in motion, opening the hood every time this happens to reset the liftgate is not ideal

As I'm driving down the freeway with my cruise control on, a front collision warning indicator on the dashboard will appear which causes the cruise control to turn off resulting in braking/slowing on the freeway unexpectedly. This is a serious issue and is a concern for me and my family's safety as we are out driving on the roads. When it happens, there is nothing on the road or obstructing the sensor from performing its task.

I have had several "electrical" problems with this vechicle- I purchased it Feb. 2016. In July 2018- my xm radio stopped working. Made 12 trips to Nissan-they finally replaced it in Dec. 2018!! now June 2019 my back up camera stopped working and the dash board doesn't show the compass and then the controls on my steering wheels doesn't work when I'm driving. Ugh! this is ridiculous car only has 17,000 miles I should not be having so many electrical problems I'm actually concerned about my safety. Dealing with Nissan is also horrible- now I have Nissan Corp involved as I just found out my "basic warranty" is expired (news to me?) and they expect me to pay for repairs/replacement not fair!! I been through hell with this car- this is only a small part of what I've been through but now this is my new issue. Does it ever stop with this vehicle"??? never, ever buy a Nissan. Can you help?"

The contact owns a 2015 Nissan Murano. While the cruise control was activated, the contact increased the speed using the cruise control speed gauge; however, due to the vehicle's forward collision avoidance system, it failed to function. Once the forward collision avoidance system was disengaged, the vehicle experienced unintended acceleration. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the vehicle was performing as designed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was unknown. The failure mileage was approximately 60.

Passenger seat switch that controls air bag would turn off airbag with an adult in the seat. Had recall work done at the dealer I purchased the vehicle from new after work was done dash light say passenger air bag of with no one in seat and stays on all the time. It does go out with an adult in the seat. My complaint is this is a temporary fix at best this is not how this is designed to work what happens when dash light burns out ? no other vehicle I own works this way if there is a problem with the position of the switch in the seat it should be repaired or replaced for free I did not buy this car thinking that Nissan would not stand behind its product a defect is a defect fix it properly.
