AIR BAGS
Potential Consequences:
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY VEHICLE RAN OVER A SPARE TRAILER TIRE THAT HAD FALLEN OFF ANOTHER VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE ALMOST CLEARED IT BUT THE TIRE JUST BARELY LODGED UNDERNEATH IN THE UNDERCARRIAGE,JUST PAST THE FRONT TIRES. EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS NO FRONT COLLISION OR SUDDEN REDUCTION IN SPEED; THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED RENDERING THE VEHICLE UNDRIVEABLE. THIS IS A FLAW AND SAFETY ISSUE. WHILE THE VEHICLE DID SUSTAIN SOME DAMAGE TO THE UNDERCARRIAGE, THERE WAS NO NEED FOR AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND DOING SO EXACERBATED AN ALREADY HAZARDOUS SITUATION. THE AIRBAG STARTLED ME, OBSTRUCTED MY VIEW, AND COULD EASILY HAVE CAUSED ME TO COLLIDE WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. I REPORTED IT TO NISSAN USA. I WAS CONTACTED BY NISSAN INCIDENT INVESTIGATIONS AND THEY HAVE DISAVOWED ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE INCIDENT AND CLAIM THAT THE SYSTEMS ARE WORKING AS INTENDED. I AM A FIREFIGHTER AND HAVE DEALT WITH MANY CAR WRECKS. I KNOW WHEN AN AIRBAG IS SUPPOSED TO DEPLOY AND IT IS CLEAR TO ME THAT THE SYSTEM IN THE VEHICLE IS NOT OPERATING AS IT SHOULD AND IS PRESENTING A SAFETY HAZARD. FURTHER, BOTH THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER AND THE ATTENDANT AT THE REPAIR SHOP EXPRESSED CONFUSION AS TO WHY THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT ALONE WILL COST NEARLY $3,000 AND, SINCE THE PARTS ARE ON BACKORDER, WILL TAKE NEARLY A MONTH.

Defect Description:
VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
WHEN USING ANDROID AUTO IN THE INFOTAINMENT, ONE CANNOT SEE THE CLIMATE (HVAC) STATUS, SO IT CREATES A DANGEROUS DISTRACTION TO ADJUST THE HEATING/AIR CONDITIONING, FAN SPEED, DEFROST, ETC. WHEN IN NORMAL MENUS AND AN ADJUSTMENT IS MADE TO THE CLIMATE SETTINGS, IT IS DISPLAYED ON THE TOP OF THE SCREEN IN A BANNER. THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE WHERE THIS INFORMATION IS VISIBLE, AND GENERALLY WORKS FINE. HOWEVER, WHEN USING ANDROID AUTO, THIS BANNER DOES NOT ACTIVATE AND IS NOT VISIBLE. AS A RESULT, CHANGING THE CLIMATE SETTINGS INVOLVES MULTIPLE TOUCHSCREEN INTERACTIONS IN ADDITION TO USING THE PHYSICAL CONTROLS. THIS COULD AND SHOULD BE UPDATED VIA A SOFTWARE UPDATE. I WILL ALSO MAKE A YOUTUBE VIDEO SHOWING THE PROBLEM FOR FURTHER ILLUSTRATION.

Potential Consequences:
WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN STOP AND GO OR HEAVY TRAFFIC, THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM THROTTLES ITSELF BACK TO CONSERVE POWER IN THE TRACTION BATTERY. COMBINED WITH THE FACT THERE ARE NO REAR SEAT VENTS (EITHER IN THE CONSOLE OR THE FLOOR), IT GETS DANGEROUSLY HOT IN THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE. ACCORDING TO NISSAN, USA, THIS IS THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE. TEMPERATURES OF OVER 100 DEGREES HAVE BEEN RECORDED IN MY DAUGHTER'S CAR SEAT WHILE IN TRAFFIC WITH THE AIR CONDITIONING HARDLY RUNNING OR RUNNING AT A VERY LOW POWER. ACCORDING TO NISSAN, THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THEY CAN MEET THEIR ADVERTISED EPA RANGE. ANOTHER AREA THIS PROBLEM EFFECTS IS THAT WHEN THE WINDSHIELD IS FOGGY, AND YOU ARE IN TRAFFIC, IT WILL NOT PROPERLY DEFROST CAUSING A SERIOUS VISIBILITY PROBLEM. I HAVE MULTIPLE VIDEOS OF ALL OF THIS. I CONTACTED NISSAN BUT THEY CLAIM THAT THE CAR IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. I AM CONTACTING THE BBB LEMON LAW SECTION. MY LOCAL REPRESENTATIVE HAS ASKED ME TO FILE A NHTSA COMPLAINT AS THEY FEEL THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.
