Received engine malfunction reduced power service now message while driving (received message 6 times so far). Error goes away when I shut car off and restart it, no code is found when scanned at Nissan dealership. Car seems to shift weird during a stop and feels like it runs rough but nothing is ever found at dealership to be the cause.

My 2020 Nissan Altima is having issues with the transmission. When you accelerate the engine Jerks, Vibrates, Shutters. It hesitates even when stopping acts like it doesn-??t want to shift into another gear. My Tires are always loosing air as well. The Front of my car is always making a sound think suspension issues.

Vehicle goes into limp mode (shows all engine warring signs flashing ) and my speed goes down to 5-15 miles. This happens instantly and my car will jerk and basically stop where it is at. This is happening when the temp. is below 0 and it is snowing. There is no warring or time to get out of the way of traffic and on the hwy cars are coming up on you. Someone can hit you from behind instantly when this happens. My vehicle has been towed twice to the dealer and i have filed 3 complaints with NIssan consumer care but this is not resolved. All they can do is reset the computer each time. The dealer tells me this is happening all the time but they can not get it do duplicate when they have it. I have 18K miles and this has happened 3 times in total.

Key system error Started a few months ago. It happens at random and when it does the car won't start. It on occasion will come on while driving which I read can cause loss of control and not being able to turn the vehicle off.
Car continually goes into malfunction mode. It goes away when the car is turned off and re started. It throws a code for mass air flow sensor. Have replaced mass air flow sensor three times. No dealership or mechanic can find an issue. Sometimes, the collision warning goes off for no reason causing panic. This has been going on for a year. Began March 2022.
I was driving the car at about 70 mph on the expressway and it just randomly de-accelerated dripping from 70-34 mph and would not allow me to accelerate and then proceeded to shut down stating engine stall I almost got hit from the back when the car de-accelerated and couldn-??t do anything about it after about 10-15 seconds I pressed the gas again and it took off abruptly. I-??m scared to drive my car anywhere that I-??ll get hit if my car de-accelerates again. Nissan can-??t replicate the issue to come up with a conclusion.
Driving on the freeway car started losing power, pulled over and then caught fire in matter of minutes the whole car was engulfed in flames. Fire department said it was an electrical fire near the battery and the fire wall on the driver side.
Parked the car for roughly 10 minutes. Came back and started car with all lights on dash illuminated. Hard to drive, hard to steer and could not tell how fast vehicle was moving as speedometer didn't work. This has happened before, had it taken to Nissan dealer. Advised that they couldn't duplicate the lights issues after it sat for 3 days before "resetting" itself.
During cold temperatures the car accelerates poorly, engine RPM is unusual. At least one instance of the engine warning light illuminates with a "service now" message displayed. In all cases the vehicle engine was running, in (slow) motion, and on a city street and one incident on a highway going straight ahead. A service department of a Nissan dealer was contacted and they stated that they have received multiple complaints of this nature about this call year and model.
The engine light constantly comes on. Have had the solenoid valve timing control replaces twice and engine light back on for the same problem. I have had my car for 6 months and has been in the shop frequently.
