Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Overhead console plastic becomes too brittle to support weight of console causing mount points to break allowing console to swing down. My console nearly hit me in side of the head. This cause view to be obstructed and could easily hit driver. Upon researching this for repair I found many other having the same issue. My guess is an inferior batch of plastic in the 08 lineup.”
NHTSA complaint #10672935, filed 2015-01, 35,000 miles“I was driving on a rough stretch of I-55 south. I then noticed the overhead console slowly separating from the front. Then all of a sudden it started falling. I couldn't pull over at the time this was happening. I also couldn't see anything from the rearview mirror. By the time I was able to exit, the console had broken up to the last compartment. I pulled into a parking lot so that I could try to disconnect the wires. I still had 40 plus miles to drive to get home. I was able to disconnect the wires and put the broken console on the seat. I called a local Nissan dealer once I got home. …”
NHTSA complaint #10475335, filed 2012-09, 61,040 miles“The back two door latches do not open untilled jiggled or continually vibrated. This would not allow the doors to be opened in the event of a emergency. I have taken the vehicle back to be repaired but to no avail. Vehicle was stationary while trying to open doors. Its this a safety hazard since the occupants may not be able to exit the vehicle during a critical time?”

They say no problem brought to independent alignment shops and frame shop. They determined that rear axle was off center therefore causing the tracking to be off and preventing a proper alignment and causing erratic steering and having to constantly correct the steering wheel while driving.”
