Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Clock spring issues, as far as I know a clock spring should last as long as the life of the vehicle, unless there is an accident or something unavoidable. Due to this issue my horn stopped working; this happened while in motion. I hope Nissan takes responsibility and replaces my clock spring at no charge. Also, in less than a month two front signal bulbs had to be replaced (left and right.)”

NHTSA complaint #11361015, filed 2020-09, 126,000 miles

“While traveling down the road entering the freeway the vehicles power steering stopped working rendering the vehicle no control. After nearly getting hit we were able to slow the vehicle down on the freeway and push it off of the road. The vehicle was not driveable and was towed to a dealership where it was learned that the power steering needed replaced for 1500.00 dollars out of the warranty.”

“My car makes a loud screeching noise while I drive. It stops and starts when my speed changes (I'm assuming when gears change) and stays for an extended period of time.”

NHTSA complaint #11340087, filed 2020-07

“Whenever my car is in motion, when trying to climb a hill, it would stop automatically. And often times, I would have to reverse my car, turn it off and gently drive it up the hill for fear that it may shut itself off. I have had to change the air mass flow 3 times. The check engine light has been on since september, and when I took it to the shop, the diagnoses came back as the air mass flow, after I have just replaced it. The car would automatically not get gas for no apparent reasons. I am not comfortable driving on the freeway any longer.”
