“The emergency collision light came on my vehicle, then traction light, car stalled and wouldn't accelerate. This issue put me at risk to be rear ended at 55 mph. Took it to the dealer and was diagnosed as the Mass Air flow Sensor. I've read about 100 articles of other owners experiencing this repetitively.”

NHTSA complaint #11653825, filed 2025-04

“I keep getting the p0101 code for the MAF sensor and I’ve replaced it 2 times with OEM ones and I still get that code later on. I’ve cleaned the throttle body and replaced the air filter with an OEM one and that light with also the “wet road” and “forward collision” light keep popping up. Stalling has also occurred multiple times while in park or at a stop light and rough idle when ever not in movement.”

NHTSA complaint #11678136, filed 2025-08

“Recently had brake sytem replaced and it was done incorrectly. Almost had a wreck and issue has drained my battery and cauing issues to alternator too. Constantly having issues with heat and now my AC. Have to constantly pay diagnostic charges. Request drive belt be replaced.”

NHTSA complaint #11515274, filed 2023-04

“Fuel: I filled the tank and the reading was much lower, as if I had less gas in the tank. I filled the tank, and driving 1 mile, the reading said I drove 3 miles, so I was losing 3 miles of gas per 1 mile drive. I took it into Nissan and they said the tank was reading accurately. After they took a look, I notice I wasn't losing gas as before, I think they did a reset and now looks to be working. This took place on 01/20-23/2020 other: I bought the car in for a grinding noise, came out to be wheel bearing replacement on my brand new car. Very disappointing. Replacement on 01/09/2020”
