ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

I am writing to formally report ongoing and unresolved issues with my vehicle that have significantly impacted its safety and reliability. The persistent problems include: Multiple simultaneous dashboard warning indicator illuminations Recurring "See Owner's Manual" malfunction notifications Intermittent Key System Error messages Continuous presence of diagnostic Code P0101 A representative from the dealership management informed me that Code P0101 is a known and widespread issue affecting multiple Nissan models, including the Versa, Sentra, and Altima. Despite this acknowledgment, I have been repeatedly told that these concerns are "under engineering review," yet no progress has been made, nor have I received any meaningful updates regarding the investigation. This lack of resolution raises serious safety concerns, and I urge the NHTSA to investigate this matter further. I appreciate your attention to this issue and any guidance you can provide on the next steps to ensure the safety and functionality of my vehicle. Sincerely,

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

I’ve read other other complaints about this make/ model car and my car does ALL of those things. First the acceleration at Rand times my car will not accelerate whether it be pulling out of a parking space, sitting at a red light, making a turn etc. have took to a mechanic because this issue and my check engine light was on due to the mass air flow sensor or filter got that fixed and car still does the same thing. Second when playing music through Bluetooth the radio just randomly restarts after playing approx 3 songs. Next the forward and back collision , abs system lights make an appearance on the dash whenever they feel like it. The emergency breaking system forward and back breaks for me when nothing is behind my car or I’m a great deal behind another car. The car now cuts off while driving. My passenger side door does not lock when pressed on the key fob with all of the other doors. The remote start does not work AT ALL. The trunk does not open when pressed on the key fob either. The lighter port does not have any power. I did buy this car used for being 5 years old and having 71,000 miles I thought that I was getting a somewhat decent deal but that is not the case, I do not feel safe in this car nor do I get to enjoy any of the features of “having a newer car”.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

Potential Consequences:

After the car in front of me turned onto a side street, the Forward Collision Warning system alarmed and then the Automatic Emergency Braking slowed my car. I was following at a sufficient distance that I was at no risk of hitting the car in front of me. This incident was a near miss because nobody was following my car, but had someone been following me when my car unexpectedly braked, there would have been a risk of me being rear-ended. I have not reproduced the error and it would be very burdensome for me to try. I reported this to Nissan Consumer Affairs and they told me to get it inspected by a dealer, which I plan on doing but have not done yet. There were no warning lamps inconsistent with the event. Generally when this system actuates a light or two will come in and then clear on their own. I was focused on the road and not the dashboard so I cannot confirm this happened 100%, but there were no warning lights before or after the event.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

I am not sure which component or system is failing neither does Nissan however it is available for inspection. This vehicle will stall in traffic starting at high speeds and it fails to accelerate while driving which’s puts my safety and other drivers at risk. The dealership has not been able to properly diagnose or repair this ongoing problem. This problem has persisted for 2 years. It has only been inspected by the dealer ship at two different locations. Of the seven times it has been to the shop only one time the check engine light came on. No other lights have ever been ignited on the dashboard.

WHEELS

Potential Consequences:

Stock road tires are 205x55/16 - diameter of 24.9”. Stock spare tire is 125x70/15 - diameter of 21.9”. The spare tire is 3” smaller than the road tire or 17.9% smaller. Checking other marques, the spare typically is less than 7% smaller and some web sites say 3% is a good limit. I am aware of the 50 mile, 55 mph limits. Is it safe to put the spare tire on a front wheel position of this FWD car? NissanUSA refers all questions to the local dealer who says no problem. Thank you.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

Safety is at risk for multiple reasons one because a month upon receiving this brand new vehicle with 40 miles on it I’ve been experiencing malfunctioning problems. I am not able to receive a forward collision warning at times. I’m not sure if these electrical problems also caused my battery to die a few weeks later. In these moments is the start of when the malfunction notification would appear daily. Two— The transmission has been having issues for a long time as well. My drives no longer have a smooth transition when I press the gas it stutters and will not accelerate immediately. The problem has been confirmed by an independent service center. I brought my car new once again so am very disappointed at how much needs to be worked on and do not want to purchase from Nissan ever again.
