“I purchased my 2017 Armada in may of 2000 and my airbag light has been blinking off and on. I took it to a Nissan dealership and they told me that it could be my cabin airbag or my side panel. They said they checked my modular under seat panel and they said it wasn't any wires loose but what ever they did it stopped my air bag light for blinking but they said it will come back on and it did. Now it's time for my car to get inspected this month .what can I do”

“While driving at rate of 45 miles per hour in the city of oxnard, ca in my 2017 Nissan Armada sl, the car started to immediately slow down to a speed of 5 miles per hour, which almost caused an accident. The antiskid and 4x4 lights and check engine light came on, but the car could not accelerate. I had to pull over to allow traffic to continue. After waiting for several minutes with the car off I restarted the car and then drove as normal. I took the vehicle to get looked at, but the technician couldn't determine the cause using diagnostic equipment. …”

“I own a 2017 Nissan Armada with factory paint color QAB Pearl White. The paint has begun peeling and separating from the primer in multiple areas despite normal use and proper care. This appears to be a premature paint failure or manufacturing defect, not normal wear. I am requesting Nissan review this issue for goodwill repair or extended paint warranty consideration.”

“BCI Malfunction has occurred twice with the vehicle. I almost always have my children in the car with me. The first time it wouldn’t start again after I shut the engine off. Now the malfunction lights remain on. The brake switch was replaced and isn’t the issue. I’m afraid of this happening more often and am afraid of the potential risk for sudden braking.”
