I have been having several issues with this vehicle since I bought it. I-??ve had the vehicle break down on me about 3 times and need repairs or adjustments to previous repairs. The main issue right now is that the car has been in the shop for about 50 days or so for repairs on the suspension or tie rods, inner/outer. I-??ve had the same issue with vibrations and shaking coming from the front end when going about 60MPH. This has been going on for about 4-5 months now since I bought the car back in June. The car has been repaired about 6 times already and still no resolution to the problem. The technician at the dealership said there isn-??t anything else they can do as all the work they-??ve done has been by the manufacturer-??s recommendation and book. My other main concern is the car tends to pull or JOLT when driving sometimes. The car has also been needing an alignment every so often. I-??m not sure if it-??s because the rack and pinion is broken or needs to be replaced. The boots around them keep tearing or coming off. This is my 2nd time hearing a technician tell me about them.The motor has been replaced already at 32K miles, 2 weeks before I bought it. Lately the car also been tugging and or shifting hard. My other issue is the back up camera and the windows, along with the outside button not working to keyless entry feature. I-??ve been having several issues with the back up camera lately. It-??s always DULL and DIM when switching from P to R, the screen turns dark and black. The other side issues are the Button for the Windows not rolling up or down. They seem to be getting stuck. This makes it hard sometimes as my kids don-??t like the A/C on as much. It gives them horse cough. When it-??s hot the car has no circulation or ventilation besides turning the A/C or FAN on.

- Farmingdale, NY, USA

I bought my car in June 2023 and I-??ve been having problems with my steering wheel. The dealership's goal was to fix that issue. They said they fixed it, but I-??ve been having the same issue since I bought the car. They had me pay a $500 deductible to fix the same issue since I bought it. Today is August 15, and they haven-??t offered to fix it. I believe they are taking advantage of the fact that I-??m young, and I'm very aware that I-??m paying $27,000 for this car. Please help me I believe the previous owner lied about what was wrong with the car an I was sold a car with unseen issue that the dealership fails to disclose to me, I believe fail to hold there end of the contract.

MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. For over a year (with a tie rod unresolved recall due to a "national back order") my young son's Nissan Sentra has consistently made noises and vibrations when he turns at low speeds. My husband repeatedly called the local Nissan Dealership in Pensacola, Sandy Sansing Nissan, citing the recall and the issues he was having but was offered no fix. My son was/is having actual safety issues related to the faulty tie rod. We went dealership on January 5, 2024 where they claimed that they fixed the recall, but after, my son noticed no change. Last week July 17, 2024, my son took his Sentra to our local mechanic who we've used and trust for over 20 years, thinking it needed brakes/rotors because the vibration and noise had gotten worse/different. Our local mechanic told him his brakes/rotors were fine but upon inspection said it needed new Rack and Pinion steering, front lower control arms, and left/right CV axles total cost $4600. That afternoon I called the Nissan Dealership, knowing these were related to the recall, and told them what our mechanic said and that we needed the next available appointment. The next morning, Nissan says he needs a new subframe (which he does not need) AND steering rack $5,117.49, Alignment $130 and both CV Axles, but for triple the price that our mechanic quoted. Nissan's total was $9000, and our Nissan service advisor looked up and told us on January 4, they couldn't have fixed the recall since the part isn't available. Now, since the recalled tie rods (that were never fixed) are bad (and the tie rods are directly connected to the steering rack), they have damaged the steering rack. This is my son's first car he financed, and he was so proud of it. The excitement has become a safety nightmare for our whole family. Nissan, please show your customers some integrity. $9,000 bill, but no fix for the recall that caused the issues and could literally cause him (and others) to lose control of the steering at any point and crash?

The electrical system is a nightmare in this vehicle. My automatic emergency braking system was activating while I was going 60mph on the highway with no vehicles or reasons to have this feature activate. It happened on numerous occasions. I had passengers in the car and they witnessed it. It was very alarming to be cruising along at 50+ mph and the braking system jolted the car to a stop. I also had to replace the battery twice. Had to purchase a portable jump starter. Had to replace alternator. None of these things should be an issue with a 36 mo lease I complained numerous times how I felt the car was a death trap. I asked for a loaner if I left car since it-??s a safety hazard and I-??m sickly and must get to my dr appts. I was told by dealer that-??s not their problem. I broke down at night alone at least 5 times. My gas said a quarter tank yet I broke down for no gas. The radio volume knob never worked. The driver rear door never locked. System malfunction wld constantly flash on my screen. The car made a ticking noise inside when shut down. My heater didn-??t work. I opened 2 consumer affairs claims. They put me off everyday. The girl Tyler did NOTHING. This car is a death trap. I think the dealer knew it had electrical problems. I kept car past end of lease for legal proof. I continued to pay. Finally I gave up. 5 hrs b4 inspection they sent a tow truck to take vehicle. I lost all belongings in trunk. They were still using my registration and never contacted me or returned calls or sent any letter to get my belongings. They kept new battery and battery jumper. Plz I need help. Nissan has been nasty to me and my [XXX] mom and instead of offering some money back they want to put me in collections for $1500 for mileage. Which I kept paying lease Plz help us. Nissan resold vehicle. Someone is going to die in that car INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The wheel keeps turning to the right and won't go straight. The wheel makes a clicking noise when it turns. It seems to be something to do with the steering column. Must keep turning the steering wheel to the left for it to work properly. I have replaced the steering gear assembly at my own expense, but the problem has not improved, proving to be a design issue near the tire and tie rod. I'm sure the sound is coming from near the tire and tie rod. Yes. I found the recall notice but no solution was given. There doesn't seem to be any plan to fix this design flaw? I need to file a complaint!

My front passenger tire rod on my Nissan broke while backing it up out of my driveway in Gillette, Wy. So I contacted the Nissan dealer in Casper, WY and they informed it was on a recall. So I had Quality Auto in Gillette, Wy take it to Vista Nissan in Casper, Wy and they informed me that they could not fix it because Quality Auto welded the tire rod together to get it on to the trailer.

Dealership is refusing to repair recall: NHTSA Recall Number: 23V581000 Manufacturer Recall Number: R23B3 On [XXX] approx [XXX] I backed out of a parking spot in a strip mall parking lot in Oceanside, NY. When I shifted into drive, I completely lost the ability to steer. Luckily I was in a parking lot and was able to avoid a collision with another vehicle or pedestrian. I had my car towed to Nissan of Rockville Centre (Long Island, New York), where they advised that my tie rod broke, which damaged the tire rack, and the repair would be $3200. I was advised to put a claim into my insurance. Upon researching, I found that this part was in fact being recalled for this very issue. Dealership is claiming outside forces, however I was pulling out of a parking spot extremely slowly when this incident occurred, with no potholes or debris in the parking lot that could've caused the damage. Nissan Consumer Affairs and the dealership both have given me the runaround for almost two months waiting on their warranty department to either approve or deny the claim. Meanwhile, I have spent over $4000 on rental vehicles to be able to continue working, still waiting for their decision. This has been going on since late March and it is 5/19/24 at the date of this complaint. My car was inspected when I bought it the lease in January/ February of this year, and has been serviced multiple times without the dealership noting the recall, perhaps because the "remedy is not yet available"? I am thankful that this tie rod didn't snap while I was commuting to work on the Belt Parkway in Brooklyn. Nissan is not taking responsibility for this malfunction and associated damage. They are still in possession of my vehicle since late March, refusing to repair the recalled parts, when I am still receiving email and text alerts from Nissan to have the recall repaired urgently! It already broke and the dealership is blaming me. I am requesting support in having this issue remedied. Thank you. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORM
