DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. ABS LIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS, AND ODOMETER STOPPED WORKING. SMELLED BURNING FROM UNDER THE HOOD.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MILES AN HOUR WHEN I NOTICE THE ENGINE WAS REVVING AT A HIGHER SPEED WITH NO CHANGE IN ACCELERATION. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO BAY RIDGE NISSAN AND THEY REPLACED THE CVT TRANSMISSION FOR $500, EVEN I THOUGH I HAVE AN EXISTING WARRANTY. I HAVE CONTACT NISSAN CORPORATE AND I HAVEN'T HEARD FROM THEM. I AM FILING A COMPLAINT BECAUSE A LOT OF NISSAN OWNERS, INCLUDING MYSELF, HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, POWER TRAIN
FIRST NOTICED IT KEPT POPPING OUT OF ALL WHEEL DRIVE IN A SNOW STORM WHILE DRIVING 15 MPR. NEXT ISSUE WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 65RPM THE SPEED KEPT DECELLERATING OR STICKING LIKE IT HAD A GOVANOR ON IT AT 65. NOW I CAN NOT DRIVE IT FOR MORE THEN TWENTY MINUTES WITHOUT IT DECELLERATING. IT WON'T SHIFT JUST STICKS AT 3RPM AND THE SPEED WILL NOT INCREASE. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES. FIRST TIME THEY SAID IT WAS A BAD BATTERY. SECOND TIME THEY HOOKED IT UP TO CHECK ENGINE MACHINE. IT DID NOT THROW A CODE SO THEY SAID IT WAS SAFT TO DRIVE. COMING DOWN A MOUNTAIN IT STARTED BUCKING AND SPEED DECELLERATED VERY QUICKLY. THANKFULLY I WAS NOT HIT FROM BEHIND. SEEMS LIKE A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM TO ME BUT HAVING A HARD TIME GETTING NISSIAN TO REPLACE IT. VERY SCARY AND UNSAFE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
WHEN I TURNED MY ENGINE OFF, GOT OUT THE TRUCK AND LOCKED THE DOORS THE VEHICLE TURNED BACK ON WITHOUT ME BEING IN THE TRUCK OR PUTTING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. I DO NOT HAVE AN AUTO STARTER. THIS HAPPENED ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. THE FIRST TIME WE DIDN'T EVEN RECOGNIZE IT HAPPENED AND IT DRAINED THE BATTERY, THE SECOND TIME WE THOUGHT WE WERE HALLUCINATING AND THE LAST INCIDENT ON MONDAY, JULY 15, 2013, IT WAS 8:30 AM AND I WAS EXITING THE VEHICLE TO GO IN TO MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT WHEN THE VEHICLE TURNED BACK ON. I INSTANTLY THOUGHT I LOCKED THE KEYS IN THE TRUCK WHEN I NOTICED THEY WERE IN MY HANDS. I UNLOCKED THE DOORS TRIED TURNING IT OFF THREE TIMES AND FINALLY ON THE FOURTH TRY IT STAYED OFF AND DIDN'T TURN BACK ON. I FELT BAD BECAUSE I THOUGHT MY DAUGHTER WAS TRYING TO SCARE ME ABOUT THE CAR STARTING ON ITS OWN. THERE'S ALSO AN ISSUE WITH THE CAR PULLING TO THE RIGHT ALL BY ITSELF. *TR

THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR STARTED FALLING DOWN, IMPAIRING SIGHT OF THE ROAD. AFTER ABOUT 1 MONTH OF FALLING, IT WOULD NO LONGER STAY UP AT ALL. I'VE HAD TO PULL OUT THE SIDE VISOR FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE VISOR TO 'PROP" THE DRIVERS SIDE UP. NOW THE PASSENGER SIDE VISOR IS STARTING TO FALL. I'VE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE, BUT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO COMPLETELY REMOVE THE VISOR IF I AM TO SEE THE ROAD. *TR
