About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
The windshield spray does not spray cleaning fluid on the windshield. It hits the bottom of the wiper. I have taken it to the selling dealer, Nissan of chesapeake. I have been told that people complain about it all of the time and that it was the number one complaint on this model and it cannot be adjusted. Very dangerous if trying to clean salt/road grime from the windshield.

Traveling northbound on hwy 5. a truck veered into the lane and hit the car head on. Severe damage yet the air bags did not deploy. Thankfully my daughter had on her seat beat. I just brought this car on Nov 23, 2013.

I got side-swiped on Monday, and on wed a second person was in my blind spot while I was trying to merge to the right. I had my signal lights on, I looked several times each time. The only reason why I was able to avoid the 2nd accident was because I heard the person's brakes screech. There is no visibility out the back rear passenger window. The door comes up significantly higher (maybe 4-5 inches) than in the older Sentra's. the mirror does not rotate far enough to the right in order to see in to the blind spot. No one riding in my blind spot can see my blinking signal light. Overall this car is dangerous to drive. Getting hit once and almost a second time was scary. This happened on a very busy highway (495). This car needs to be recalled. The flaws are inherent to the poor design of the vehicle. The door and mirrors are defective. These are design flaws which the consumer can't fix or maybe unaware of during a simple test drive. This car should not be driven on a highway.
