2020 Nissan Rogue Sport S AWD - The entire car unexpectedly shut down (I.E.: Exactly as if the car was completely off) while driving on two separate occasions, almost causing massive accidents and potential severe injury and/or death for everyone affected. Fortunately, I immediately reacted to get on a shoulder lane and allow the car to slow down, even though the car had no power steering, breaks that malfunctioned, and an electrical system/lights that completely went dead. This is all due to the JackKnife Key recall, which was not properly disclosed by the dealership, and which Nissan refuses to properly address and fix the matter even while acknowledging that an accident could have caused severe bodily injury and/or death. Also, the recall permanent fix is negligent due to the fact that the key fob would have a plastic spacer that would require key fob to have the key out in the open position at all times. The issue is that the key fob was never engineered to be in an open position at all times, so it would most likely break fast. This would require the consumer to now pay thousands of dollars to have a a new key fob made and to replace the affected areas of the key slot. Nissan should be responsible for finding a permanent fix, which should be to replace all affected parts with new ones, instead of inserting a cheap plastic spacer in the key fob which would require it to stay erect 24/7 all in the name of profits. The lives of our family members, kids, loved ones, and anyone affected are more important than Nissan's cheap fix (a cheap plastic spacer that probably costs less than $0.99 to produce, all in the name of increased profits and decreased costs by finding the most unsafest and cheapest solution possible. What if the spacer breaks, since the key will get destroyed being erect 24/7 in someone's pocket all day, and this happens again! Nissan should be mandated to either replace all affected parts with completely new parts or buy the car back above value.

Vehicle has 61k miles and the a/c began blowing cold and hot intermittently as the car was idle but no engine lights were coming on. 5 days later a mechanic was able to look at vehicle and discovered the one fan responsible for entire car wasn-??t not coming on and it was only the air being pushed into the front of vehicle by having it in motion that was turning the fan thus making the vehicle blow cold air when in motion and keeping the engine cooled. No warning lights were coming on and staying

Bought new in 2020, then after 24k miles, had rough idle, uneven acceleration, occasional lurching while decelerating. Check engine indicator, code p0301. Dealership diagnosed faulty transmission, said needed replacement, then took about 90 days to finish repairing the vehicle. Now, as I expected, 25k miles later, exactly the same situation, except so far the check engine light has not come on and diagnostic code was only obtained by checking OBDII data after noticing the return of symptoms. I have no reason to believe if the vehicle is turned in that it will be completed in a reasonable time frame. Also it's clear that even after replacement, the new component is only likely to run for an additional 20k-25k miles.
