“Well, first, my struts are bad on the right wheel. And I've went through about 5 tires now. And I guess my wheel bearing or something is messed up too. I don't I don't know exactly, but it does not sound good. Next would be the brake light is on and it won't shut off. No matter what I do, it will not turn off. The third thing is my cameras are not working, right and the fourth thing is, as it's making some kind of weird noise. I don't know if it's the engine or it could be where the wheel is.

“At about 12 months we noticed an intermittent clunking sound from the rear of the car. We took it to the dealer and was advised they could not duplicate the problem. I went to have the car state inspected 1/20/22 and it failed. Both reared shocks were determined to be bad, one of which was leaking badly. I brought the car back to a Nissan dealer and was told nothing could be done as my mileage was 45,000. I was told the repair would be approx. $800. Most of my miles are easy highway miles. There obviously was a defect in the shock observers or the assembly of them. …”
