Intermittently looses power, total loss of acceleration. Definitely a safety hazard not knowing when it's coming. I'm very familiar with turbo lag, this is not it. Usually happens around 1/4 throttle, squeeling accessory drive belt, exhaust odor in the truck, makes you nauseous, afraid to let my kids ride in it! severe clunking in driveline, rattle in turbocharger, check engine for waste gate, leaking window seals, drips on window switch surges forward when coming to a stop, they say it's shifting into first, it will shove you into an intersection! radio has loud popping, they have attempted fixes many times to no avail. Nissan response "its normal"

The truck is leaking diesel fumes into the passenger compartment. The smell is more noticeable during a regen. The odor and fumes can become very intoxicating if stopped in traffic to the point you would need to roll the windows down or exit the vehicle for a break.

Diesel smell coming into the cab when regen is taking place its so strong and the fumes are so bad I have to get out of the truck its my opinion its carbon monoxide poisoning it is giving me respiratory trouble for my self this must become a recall before someone passes out from the fuel smell the dealer is still waiting for a engineer sins there is no fix and the dealer has never had to do a repair like this they said we don't know what to do and never had a new truck like this so I am stuck driving it and don't know when I will get a call back it happens when moving or parked and it worse driving

Vehicle lost power on highway and would not exceed 40mph with full acceleration, was able to limp vehicle to dealership for repairs. Was told dpf regen triggered engine fail-safe causing loss of power. No warning lights were visible during incident. Dealer does not know cause of issue but was able to reset vehicle. This issue occurred again several days later and has not been resolved and has no clear fix.

Cummins 5.0 liter engine missing out at 1700 rpms, you can rev the diesel engine to 1700 rpms and then all of sudden the unit starts missing out. But yet a cummins engineer stated that some of them do it, and some don't. well being a cummins tech my self I knew this was not true. Nissan refuses to send the truck to an actual cummins dealer to have it properly checked out. So U took it to cross point cummins dealership here in Indiana their diagnosis the egr flap is sticking on the casting and causing lose of power, with excessive regeneration due unit only has 800 miles on it. I have video of the issues!
