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.
My transmission gave out. My car stopped in the middle of the street as I was crossing to the next intersection and would not go. I had to have my car pushed to the curve until tow truck came. The car was towed to the dealership (nissan of mobile) the dealer confirmed the transmission was bad. No lights or warning came on prior just stopped and would not go. This was a very scary situation and I'm still devastated.

Sway bar link broken, causing dangerous risk of steering failure. Rear hub bearing disintegrated, causing worn tires and high risk of wheel randomly separating from axel while driving! Wow! Car not old enough for such problems!

Vehicle was shuddering or hiccuping accelerating and decelerating on its own without any warning lights turning on. Warning light (MIL) only came on after total failure and car would not move forward at all.without any control of acceleration I was forced to let the vehicle roll down the hill I was on to coast it into a parking lot to be off the road, while traffic was behind me causing a potentially dangerous situation as it was on a short street so line of cars driving the wrong direction with traffic entering behind going the appropriate direction.

Car has had problems since day one when it was purchased for lack of power going up hills, and when changing lanes it shutters. Also since day one door latches have a problem working in cold weather.....Now at 46, ooo miles the right front passenger door does not want to open from outside, and sometimes will not open from inside, and the rear hatch will not open at all. The drivers door you have a 50/50 chance of it..may or may not open. This is a long term problem with Nissan cars and is a major safety problem if you cannot get out of a car. It is also problem that effects the safety of those who ride in Nissan Cars.....This has been a service bulletin and should be a major recall... It needs to be address...just look at the youtube video's its a common problems..

I left my car parked in front on my house for a whole week, as I left for vacation. Came back and now my car key get stuck in the ignition.

During colder weather, as the car is moving, air comes in through the bottom seam of the backseat and through the edges of both rear doors. The weather stripping around these parts is inadequate. This inflow of air causes all windows to fog up and condensate, which the defroster is unable to contend with. Water literally drips down the windows and makes it hazardous for the driver because they can't use their mirrors to navigate and are wiping the winshield so they can see the road in front of them.

Unknown at a stop, when the A/C kicks on, I hear a very audible rattling noise coming from somewhere between the engine and the transmission. Whenever I am starting off, for example, going down my street, I can hear a very audible, yet different, rattling noise coming from somewhere behind the glove box. I thought that noise was something I had in the glove box, but I already tried emptying all of the compartments and driving and it still made that noise, which tell me that it must be something just behind the glove box inside the dash. The electroluminescent lights for the instrument panel are already beginning to fade out in some places. These problems began at 12K, 15K, and 17K miles respectively. I have mentioned these problems at 2 different Nissan dealership service departments 4 individual times and the only response I get is that it will be around $250 to check and see what the problem is and that the warranty probably will not cover the repairs. The vehicle has 33K miles currently and I will be trying one more time to have the issues resolved at the 35K mile service before the warranty expires at 36K. I am afraid that the instrument panel lights may go out at night and I won't be able to read the speedometer. As far as the rattling noises go that I and others are hearing is questionable. Whatever is rattling could eventually break and cause a very serious accident and injure/ kill one of me or my passengers. I cannot remember the exact day these problems began but I'm sure it was sometime between Oct 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016
