Example complaints

“While pulling on to the I-26 on ramp the vehicle lost all propulsion power and wouldn't move. Then after I got over to the shoulder it would start but still continues to die after 1 or 2 seconds running. This is not the first time this has happened. It had done this before about 6 months prior. I am currently stuck due to this issue”

NHTSA complaint #11291759, filed 2019-12, 160,000 miles“I have 42000 miles on my car, and all of a sudden yesterday my muffler started rattling and being extremely loud. I parked my car and it was fine, but when I started it up to leave where I was it was noisy - very sudden and unexpected. Had someone look at it, and it appears that the flange between my muffler and the manifold cracked clean apart. Not due to rust or corrosion as it is a clean break. He said it appeared to him that it must not have been a very good weld to begin with.”
NHTSA complaint #10881562, filed 2016-06, 42,000 miles“I was on my way to work one morning at 430am I was on the interstate. I felt a pull in my steering wheel and heard a big popping noise and pulled over to check on it and everything to me at that time looked ok. I keep driving 5 more mins or so and I heard the noise again and at that time my passenger tire was flat, I had to call a tow truck which costed me 160$. I thought it was just a regular tire blow out till my I take it to get fixed and my suspension had busted. …”
NHTSA complaint #10761761, filed 2015-09, 110,000 miles“My vehicle has about 42,000 miles. All of a sudden, the engine roars and sounds like a helicopter. I took it to the dealership and they stated that the muffler and exhaust system needs to be replaced. They attribute it to rock salt. However, this is a common issue with this car. The material used by this manufacturer and/or their vendor is not of good quality. If not addressed, this could lead to an accident and it must be recalled. There are numerous complaints against Nissan regarding this issue to no avail.”
