All Unknown Or Other Complaints (63)
The problem with my 2013 Nissan Sentra relates to the transmission which was serviced April 22, 2024 at Passport Nissan in Suitland, M D. Two months later, June 12, 2024 my car was serviced again for transmission problelms. The CVT transmission unit was replaced because of internal malfunction on the transmission assembly. My car is currently unsafe 1 year and six months later with transmission problems. The recent diagnosis requires removing the existing transmission assembly and installing a new one to ensure proper functioning of the drivetrain. The cost is $7,509.41. My contention is that the transmission is still faulty and unsafe after multiple paid service attempts. Nissan service management informs that service is outside of the warranty by one month because of their recent policy change. Please assist with transmission repairs at no cost to me since it has not been serviced properly and is unsafe to me and my family. I would appreciate knowing what if anything can be done to help with transmission repair at no additional cost to me. Thank you.
While driving, the start/stop button was pressed and the vehicle turned off while in motion. WHILE IN D, THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHILE IN TRAFFIC, IN MOTION, DUE TO THE STOP/START BUTTON BEING PRESSED. It should not be able to shut off while in drive. The safety feature should not allow that.
2013 Nissan Sentra that I bought brand new in 2014 with only about 15 miles on it. December 2024 In the middle of traffic the vehicle would not accelerate forward, even when almost flooring the gas pedal. This would only Rev up the engine as if I was in park. I was able to drive in reverse to a park in a lot next to where the vehicle stalled. There were not any warning lights at anytime prior to the incident. The mechanic did take a look at it and believed it was a transmission issue. The first time this happened was about 2018 with the same type of scenario. The transmission was replaced $4000+ later by Nissan but when they gave the car back the AC did not work and I had to replace the compressor. They denied any wrong doing at the Nissan dealership but it was fine before I dropped it off except the transmission.
My car has has to repair its air conditioner on 3 Ocasion because it stopped cooling. On November 2023 the transition failed sending a code of: SECOND CLOTCH MODE. I TOOK IT TO 3 mechanics and all said it was the transmition and that all CVT cars have the same defect. My car is well care taken but right now it’s not functioning because of this issue. All cars I have seen NISSAN SENTRA fail for thr same …transmition. At this moment I don’t have any other car to solve my situation and don’t have $6,000.00 to buy a transmition. Please review people who have these cars .
Feb 26th, 2024 i drove my car for the first time since having surgery on Jan. 11, 2024. I was going about 35 mph when extremely fast the car radio turned off it felt as if the engine was also turned off but within a blink of your eye the car was turned back on , all by itself, a tiny jerk, nothing major. I instantly looked at the temp gauge, made sure the key was in ignition correctly. There was nothing to signal a problem. The next day i didnt leave my home. On Feb. 28, 2024 i drove the car about 7 miles and it did this same glitch twice .Again all gauges read normal, i got out of the car this time popped the hood. No smoke , no burning smell or any smell at all. I checked the fluids, the belt, the battery connections everything was fine. Later that night a family member had someone try breaking into their home. Very upset i decided to leave my home and drive over to be if some comfort. I drove a total of 21 miles, as i was turning into the driveway the car fid it again however this time i had to get it in park and restart my car. Again no over heating no smoke no burning or fuel smells. I parked the car went inside. About 7 minutes later , definitely no more than 10 minutes, i heared a loud bang. I look outside and my entire motor was on fire and the tire had already blown!! In under ten minutes!! I tried putting the fire out with the water hose but 911 dispatch heard the second tire blow and repeatedly asked me to stop and go inside the home that fire fighters were on their way . I had let my insurance go since i had emergency surgery and was unable to drive or work and pay for it. I bought this car in aug. 2020 and had to replace the cvt transmission nov. 2022. And now no car. This could have been a tragedy if anyone had small children and had ran back inside because they forgot a coat or a book bag, please look into this for other customers safety. Firefighters said it was so burnt they couldn't begin to tell how or where the fire started.
I was driving down the road and all of a sudden the car started to sputter and I couldn't accelerate. Whenever I came to a stop it jerked after a minute of the RPM just revving, it finally shifted and lunged forward. I think the transmission went bad. Made it home parked it and I've been too concerned to drive it since.
Mass air flow sensor. The check engine light comes on. It’s a safety hazard because the car does not have the power to accelerate so very dangerous when trying to cross intersection driving on The road is dangerous. This mass air flow sensor part is not a maintenance/ regular service. This is the second time I’m having this issue within 14 months. I had it replaced Aug 2022 and now dealership is say I need a new one AGAIN
My car just started messing up and I took it to my nearest Nissan dealership and I was advised it was the transmission but before that day I was looking up information on what the car issue could be and it came out to be that there was a transmission CVT recall for my car 2013 Nissan Sentra. I moved from Chicago to Arizona in June of 2020 and I was never informed either via phone or email. I do not thin that it is fair that I should have to pay for this issue at all if it is a manufacturer recall and I was never informed of the recall.
I'm driving on Freeway an aproximate speed of 60' 65mph when my car begins to shake and losses power I hit the Gas and doesn't respond I have cars all over me at higher speeds I'm trying to merge to slow lane but my car doesn't do anything I put on my emergency lights turn off my car reignite it turns on but it feels like it skips speeds shaky and I take it home at a speed of 20/ 40" I'm not able to take it higher the motor sounds forced.
I bought the car in May 2019. The dealership I bought it from said they worked with a Nissan dealership and replaced the transmission just before I purchased the car. Shortly after I got the car I noticed problems. I had my mechanic tell me it was the transmission slipping. In August I took it back to where I bought it and they sent it back to the Nissan dealership to check. The Nissan dealership said there was nothing wrong with it. They said it showed no codes. It continued to be a problem. I eventually took it to another mechanic and a transmission shop. Both confirmed a transition problem. I then took it to a different Nissan dealership. Lamb Nissan. They looked at it and said the program that will show error codes was not up to date and the original Nissan dealership should have updated and it was not updated. They said there is a problem but the program needed to be updated for them to know more. They updated it and I have been driving it with continued problems. I will be taking it back to Lamb Nissan in a couple weeks to have them check it out again. The problems have been after stopping at a stop sign on an incline, when I accelerate it gives a rurring sound as if it is going fast, but it barely moves. Then it will finally kick in and drive a normal speed. It also jerks. Especially when I take my foot off the brake. I have occasionally smelled a burning smell. Not sure if it is related. Answering the questions: 1) transmission - I can arrange for it to be available for inspection. 2) my safety is in question because I don’t know the exact problem and when/if it will just shut down and possibly cause an accident. 3) the problem has been confirmed by 4 places as described above. 4) it has not been inspected other than above as far as I know. 5) no warning lights have come on.
The wiring that connects to the throttle sensor is fraying and causes the car to stall unexpectedly when driving. If the car stalls unexpectedly it increases the chances of a fatal accident. There are no warnings, all the warnings appear when the car stalls. My safety is at risk because it stalls when driving unexpectedly and another car can hit me from behind causing an accident without warning.
My 2013 Nissan Sentra transmission had to be replaced. I wanted to report this problem because Nissan in my experience have had transmission problems with some of their vehicles causing consumers to pay out of pocket for expensive repairs. My daughter has a 2015 Nissan Maxima whose transmission blew also. Also, I received a notice that my 2018 Nissan Pathfinder may have future transmission problems. Fortunately I traded this vehicle for a Toyota so I wouldn’t have this problem in the future. This is very concerning that all of these cars have the same transmission problem. Is there anything that could be done for Nissan owners?
I purchased this car in 2018 with 30k miles. In 2020 I had to replace the transmission. Now 2022 and I have to replace the transmission again. The car is decelerating and sputtering at times. But it’s not covered? How does a car have three transmissions within such a short time under 120k miles?
While driving my car will act like it's running out of gas, then it will kill, sometimes it starts right back up other times it won't, I have had the feul pump replaced and it's still doing it now have not had any codes till yesterday now it is saying my camshaft sensor is malfunctioning, it has killed in the middle of an intersection and almost killed on the highway, it acts like it can't switch gears but it is a cvt transmission, it cant seem to accelerate to well and has a hard time getting up to 60 mph and going up hills.
On Saturday morning about 12:03, my son was in an accident. the car rolled over, there were a total of 4 people if the vehicle. the air bags didn't deploy. the 4 people had injuries consisting of concussion, a shattered foot, sprained wrist, and other injuries. I have an open claim with the insurance company. there were no other vehicles involved. The police came to the seen and the vehicle will be investigated further.
Nissan replaced my defective cvt and since that time my car rolls back when I am taking off from a stop at the top of a hill.
The transmission works fine until the car reaches 50-55 mph and reaches higher operating temperatures, then the car becomes "limp". The transmission becomes very weak. The cars tachometer, on the dashboard, will go from almost 4,000 rpms down to less than 1,000 rpms. This happens in traffic, while driving along at 55 mph it will only go about 20 or less mph. When the car is driven to the roadside and turned off, smoke will come from under the hood and around the transmission, like it's been burning transmission fluid that has dripped all over the transmission body. After the transmission has cooled down for at least 30 minutes or so, it may resume being driven if driven slower, like 40 mph or less. Also, when climbing any percentage of a grade, the car starts losing power and going slower while proceeding up the grade.
The left headlight went our or so I thought until I tried to change it then it worked until I put the cover back on. Also the car beeps a warning but I never know what the warning is for. The mass airflow system sensor has been replaced 5 times as of today since 5-2021. It stalled and died leaving me scared as I tried to enter the road luckily o wasn't injured.inhave no info as far as mileage, fuel usage etc..
The mass airflow sensor is known to be an issue. I have had to replace it 5 times now since may 2021. I was trying to get on the street with oncoming traffic and it died and the car tried restarting while in gear. Luckily I was not injured. This is the #1 issue with this make and model of car. After this happened I went to see what the check engine light meant as it has been on for months even after changing the sensor and I could not drive my car. I changed the sensor in the parking lot to get home. How many people have to die before nissan corrects the issue? I can't read the mileage, gas usage etc even after changing the sensor. I drive blindly to these
This vehicle will not go forward or move backward. We were on the freeway ... luckily we were able to get car to drive forward before oncoming traffic hit us We were scared for our lives. We have reached out to Nissan of North America SEVERAL times about this and correcting the issue. We were just made aware recently by an attorney to try reaching out to you. They are refusing to fix issue or a recall vehicles. It is a CTC transmission issue according to mechanics. I was told that a consumer filed a suit against them for this COMMON safety issue but Nissan corporation of North America are refusing to do a recall. They are putting consumers through a lot of red tape so that they can save money while risking human lives. I’m scared that someone will be hit bad or killed because Nissan North America will not do a recall for consumers. I reported to Attorney General in Tennessee, the Home State of their Corporation but they are doing nothing seemingly regarding Nissans’s North America lack of concern for their drivers and consumers.

MY CAR STALLS WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A SLOW DOWN OR STOP.IT START THE END OF 2016 BUT IT WAS ONCE EVERY FEW WEEKS. I TOOK IT TO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN OXFORD MS IN 2017 AND HAD IT TESTED AND WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. IT IS MUCH WORSE NOW. IT USE TO BE A COUPLE TIMES A MONTH AT FIRST NOW IT HAPPENS ON AT LEAST HALF OF THE ACCELERATIONS FROM BEING STOPPED OR SLOWED ESPECIALLY IF YOU TRY TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY. I HAVE READ ABOUT OTHER CARS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. THE HAVE ISSUED A BULLETIN FOR IT TO BE TESTED AND REPAIRED AT MY COST. THIS SHOULD BE NISSAN'S EXPENSE PLUS ANY DAMAGE IT HAS COST WITH ME DRIVING IT THIS WAY FOR 50,00 MILES AFTER THEY SAID IT WAS ANYTHING TO BE FIXED. THIS IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED. THIS STARTED AT 52,000 MILES NOW IT HAS 99,000 MILES IT WAS TESTED AT 56,000 MILES.

CVT TRANSMISSION WENT OUT ON VEHICLE WHILE ON THE ROAD. I ONLY HAD 76,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME.

VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY STOPS PULLING. I WAS ON A US STATE HIGHWAY WITH MANY VEHICLES BEHIND ME. WITHIN 18 MILES THE TRANSMISSION STOPPED OPERATING 3 TIMES RESULTING IN ME WORKING TO GET MY CAR OUT OF THE WAY OF OTHER TRAFFIC. VEHICLE HAS LOW MILEAGE.
Mileage: 73,000
MY CAR WOULD START TO JERK AS I WAS DRIVING, I WENT AND GOT IT LOOKED AT AND THE AUTO ZONE GUY SAID IT WAS THE VOLTAGE REGULATOR IN THE ALTERNATOR SO I HAD THAT FIXED, THEN THE MOTOR MOUNTS HAD TO BE REPLACED. AFTER ALLTHAT IT WAS STILL JERKING AND IT IS MY ALTERNATOR. I DROVE MY NISSAN OFF THE LOT WITH 298 MILES ON IT AND THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING. I CALLED NISSAN AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT COVER IT BECAUSE IM AT 101K MILES EVEN THOUGH I HAVE THE SECURITY +PLUS CONTRACT AND THERE IS A STIPULATION WITH KENTCUKY. THERE SHOULD BE ABSOLUTELY NO REASON AS TO WHY A 6 YEAR OLD CAR IS HAVING SO MANY ISSUES ALL OF A SUDDEN. IT LITERRALY STARTED A MONTH AGO AND IS DUE TO BE PAID OFF IN JULY. WHEN I PULL OFF FROM STATIONARY SITTING IT JERKS, ONCE I COAST TO A GOOD SPEED AROUND 50MPH AND UP THEN IT WONT JERK BUT HESITATES AND MY RPM GAUGE JUMPS UP AND DOWN.
THE CAR JERKS AND SHAKES WHEN DRIVING AND COMPLETELY STOPS ON THE FREEWAY WHEN DRIVING SEVERAL TIMES, CAR STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY, DOOR ON DRIVER SIDE ALSO DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY. TOOK THE CAR TO NISSAN DEALER IN MONTCLAIR METRO NISSAN IN CALIFORNIA, THEY STATED ITS THE TRANSMISSION AND IS IN SERVICE RIGHT NOW. BIG SAFETY HAZARD.

WE BOUGHT OUR DAUGHTER A NEW 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. IT WAS SERVICED REGULARLY AT OUR NISSAN DEALER. ON OCTOBER 18TH, MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING HOME FROM A FRIEND'S HOUSE ON LOCAL STREETS. SHE SMELLED FUEL, THE CONTROLS ON THE DASHBOARD WENT HAYWIRE AND ALL SYSTEMS ON THE CAR STARTED SHUTTING DOWN. SHE PULLED THE CAR OVER, PUT HER EMERGENCY BRAKES ON, TURNED THE CAR OFF AND GOT AWAY FROM THE CAR. SHE WATCHED AS HER CAR WENT ON FIRE. WE NOTIFIED NISSAN AND THEY TOLD US THAT BECAUSE THEY FOUND NO MANUFACTURING DEFECTS, THERE WAS NOTHING MORE THEY COULD DO. HOW DOES A 5 YEAR, WELL MAINTAINED, 48,000 MILE CAR JUST SET FIRE WITH NO WARNING? HOW WAS THIS VEHICLE NOT PART OF THE MARCH 2013 RECALL? HOW CAN NISSAN NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS? MOST IMPORTANTLY, HOW CAN THEY NOT GIVE US AN ANSWER TO WHY MY DAUGHTER'S CAR SET ON FIRE? IS THIS USUAL? IS THE LIFE EXPECTANCY OF A CAR ONLY 5 YEARS NOW? ARE THESE CAR MANUFACTURER'S NOT BEING HELD TO ANY STANDARDS? DO I HAVE TO BE CONCERNED WITH MY OTHER 2 CHILDREN'S NISSAN CARS? MY SON'S CAR IS A 2013 NISSAN ALTIMA BOUGHT AT THE SAME TIME WE BOUGHT THE 2013 NISSAN SENTRA. OUR OTHER CAR IS A 2014 NISSAN SENTRA (ALSO MANUFACTURED AT THE SAME PLANT AS THE OTHER NISSAN SENTRA, A YEAR LATER). WE PURCHASED IT USED TWO MONTHS AGO FROM OUR LOCAL DEALER AND ALREADY HAD THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED. HOW COME THESE MANUFACTURER'S ARE GETTING AWAY WITH PUTTING OUT FAULTY PRODUCTS AND NOT BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE WHEN THERE'S A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR? BESIDES NOT HAVING A CAR FOR 8 WEEKS, MY DAUGHTER SUFFERS FROM ANXIETY WHEN SHE'S IN A CAR AND HAS NIGHTMARES ABOUT BEING IN A BURNING CAR. THIS IS SO TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. I CONTACT SOMEONE AT THE NHTSA WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED AND THEY TOLD ME TO GET IN TOUCH WITH NISSAN. HERE WE ARE 9 WEEKS LATER AND NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT. CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVICE? [XXX]. THANKYOU. *DT*JB INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

AS I WAS GOING 60MPH ON A HIGHWAY WITH HIGH TRAFFIC MY CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN NO MATTER HOW MUCH I STEPPED ON THE PEDDLE. I MADE IT TO THE SHOULDER AND ATTEMPTED TO MAKE THE CAR GO BY SHIFTING THE GEARS. AFTER A COUPLE MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO MOVE. ANOTHER TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS CROSSING INTERSECTION SPEED LIMIT IS 35. IT STARTED TO LOOSE POWER AND I BARLEY MADE IT PAST THE INTERSECTION. MY NISSAN DEALER STATES IT ISN'T MY TRANSMISSION. I HAVE READY MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS LIKE MINE ABOUT NISSAN CVT TRANSMISSION. IT'S DANGEROUS TO BE DRIVING A CAR LIKE THAT.

TAKATA RECALL. TRANSMISSION WENT OUT WITHOUT SHOWING CODES.. NISSAN KEPT SAYING IT WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH CAR BUT THE CAR WAS STALLING AND PULLING AT TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF MAKING A TURN ON CITY STREETS THE CAR WOULDNT GO.. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. SO IT TOOK MONTHS OF THEM REFUSING TO FIX AND MY WARRANTY COMPANY TO ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM. ALSO, THE MASTER BREAK CYLINDER WENT OUT WITHOUT NOTICE. I HAVE HAD MANY MECHANICS LOOK AT CAR AND SAY THAT MY CAR HAS VERY LITTLE MILES FOR THIS TO HAPPEN SO SOON.. WHILE DRIVING ON MAIN ROADS AND HIGHWAYS THE BRAKE PAD WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR. WHEN AT A RED LIGHT AND STOP SIGN OR ANY TIME I AM AT A STOP THE CAR KEEPS MOVING WITH BRADE PAD ON FLOOR OF CAR..

MY CAR HAS A CVT TRANSMISSION AND NISSAN KNOWS THAT THESE CARS AT AROUND 70,000 MILES, THE TRANSMISSION STARTS ACTING UP. I NOTICED THAT MY CAR FELT A LITTLE DIFFERENT WHENEVER I WAS DRIVING IT BUT JUST THOUGHT IT WAS MY IMPRESSION. AS MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING IT WITH MY TWO KIDS IN THE CAR, THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE AT A STOP SIGN. IN THE HIGHWAY IT JERKS, SPEEDS AND SLOWS DOWN AT VARIOUS TIMES UNANNOUNCED WHICH MAKES IT VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I CONTACTED NISSAN ABOUT IT AND WAS TOLD THAT I NEED A $4000 TRANSMISSION THAT THEY WOULD'VE REPLACED FOR FREE, BUT UNFORTUNATELY I HAPPEN TO BE 1800 MILES OVER WHAT THE BOOK STATES. IF I KNEW THAT MY CAR HAD A TRANSMISSION THAT IS NO GOOD THAT PUTS ME AND MY FAMILY IN DANGER I WOULD'VE BROUGHT MY CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP A LONG TIME AGO. BUT I DIDN'T KNOW AS THERE IS NO RECALL AT THIS POINT.

MY VEHICLE HAS HAD ONGOING ISSUES WITH ACCELERATION AND THE RPMS GOING PAST WHAT IT SHOULD UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS ISSUE OCCURS SPECIFICALLY WHEN I ACCELERATE. ON JANUARY 21, 2018, AS I WAS MERGING ON TO THE HIGHWAY TRYING TO ACCELERATE, MY SPEED WOULD NOT INCREASE INITIALLY AND MY RPMS WERE PAST 5. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND CONCERNING AS I WAS TOLD BY NISSAN THAT MY TRANSMISSION IS IN PROPER WORKING ORDER AFTER HAVING BEEN REPLACED ONCE ALREADY. MY CAR DOESN'T FUNCTION PROPERLY AND I WENT TO A TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST WHO ALSO SAID THAT MY TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING. I PRESENTED THIS INFORMATION TO THE NISSAN SPECIALIST WHO STATED IT WASN'T AND IT IS FINE. HOWEVER, I'VE HAD INSTANCES WHERE THE VEHICLE DOES NOT OPERATE THE WAY IT SHOULD UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS AND PRIOR TO HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE ON MAY 6, 2016 AT THE SPEED LIMIT (70 MPH) WHEN I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION THAT WOULD COMPARE TO A SHOTGUN BLAST. THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD AHEAD OF ME LESS THAN 1/8 MILE. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE EXPRESSWAY TO INSPECT MY CAR. THE GLASS IN THE SUNROOF APPEARED TO HAVE EXPLODED. THERE WAS NO OTHER APPARENT DAMAGE. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND AFTER INSPECTION, THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE WHAT CAUSED THE DAMAGE AND THAT MY WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED, THEREFORE, THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THIS CAUSED NO ACCIDENT OR INJURIES. MY INSIDE SUNROOF COVER WAS IN THE CLOSED POSITION.

WHEN THE VEHICLE'S GAS GAUGE IS INDICATING THE FUEL TANK IS EMPTY, AFTER REFUELING THE GAUGE DOES NOT INDICATE THE CHANGE. THIS IS A FAIRLY NEW CAR, I DON'T THINK THIS SHOULD BE HAPPENING ALREADY! I WILL RUN OUT OF GAS, AND IT WILL BE BECAUSE MY CAR ISN'T TELLING ME THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF FUEL.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL CAN SUDDENLY BECOME UNRESPONSIVE, CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LOSE SPEED AND THE ENGINE TO SLOW OR NEARLY STALL. THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY WHEN DRIVING, AT ALL SPEEDS FROM A STANDING STOP TO HIGHWAY SPEED. THIS ISSUE SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO THE RECALL FOR 908,000 NISSAN VEHICLES FOR ACCELERATOR PEDAL PROBLEMS IN EARLY 2013. I THINK THAT RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO NISSAN MODELS SOLD IN THE USA. I HAVE HAD THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE AT MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP TWICE FOR THIS ISSUE SO FAR, AND THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED.

THE MORNING STARTED OFF WITH HAVING PROBLEMS WITH ESF LGHT, AND HAND BRAKE LIGHT EVEN THOUGH HAND BRAKE WAS NOT APPLIED. I TRIED TO PULL OVER MANY TIMES, AND FIX LIGHTS BUT NOTHING WORKED. I WAS AT A RED LIGHT, THEN IT TURNED GREEN AND STREET TRAFFIC PROCEEDEDD TO DRIVE FORWARD BUT A CAR 3 CARS IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED ABRUPTLY. THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME , HAD ENOUGH TIME TO STOP , BUT MY NISSAN SENTRA HIT THE BACK OF THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I THINK THAT THE CAR AND ITS SYSTEMS MALFUNCTIONED AND I WOULD LIKE IT INVESTIGATED , BECAUSE MY ACCIDENT COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED. I AM HURT FROM THIS ACCIDENT, AND SO IS THE DRIVER FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME.
