This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.

Air bag sensor light starts blinking after engine startup and continues to blink until engine is turned off. Sent email to Nissan in Dec 2013 regarding this issue and they indicated "a review of our system indicates that the above-referenced vehicle is not currently involved in any recalls or service campaigns." I find it hard to believe this is not a Nissan issue when there have been air bag sensor recalls in 2005, 2006, 2007,2008,2009, and 2010.
