“On january 4th, 2020 when we went to start the car, all the lights flickered and the seats rattled from electrical pulses. The car did not start at all. We have had this happen 20+ times. Sometimes when we jump the car, it will start. The dealership has replaced the battery 4 times. It is clearly not the battery. Nissan never has an answer.”
NHTSA complaint #11386924, filed 2021-01, 22,000 miles“2019 Nissan was purchased aug 2020 from vallejo Nissan(ca). October 20' the Armada wouldn't start, I took it to the tracy Nissan dealership as I have the Nissan plus extended warranty. Tech said it was the battery which was not covered.

NHTSA complaint #11350814, filed 2020-08, 38,800 miles“2019 Armada with just over 5000 miles. Dead battery towed or jumped 5 times. Recall switch replaced. The problem still continues. Seems like a dead battery just 15 minutes after shutting off . We called but wrecker was a problem so we used a jump start. Battery is suppose to be a brand new one dealer said when we drove and dropped off at dealership this a.m. Have no idea how it could just be the battery. It shows it's charged once started. We live in a rural area and of course like anyone we need a dependable car. …”
NHTSA complaint #11374580, filed 2020-11, 5,000 miles“On somewhat random occasions the vehicle will not start, in total over 13 separate occasions. At times it will start after 5 or 6 attempts sometimes 20 attempts. On the last 5 occasions it would not start until a battery charger or other battery was used. I have used the last occasion for date of occurrence. Had it to the dealership 3 times and they cannot duplicate. It is a random occurrence sometimes after a week and sometimes after a couple of months. The last time in november I had to jump start it 4 times before I could get it to the dealer and they could not duplicate it. …”
