BACKUP CAMERA REMAINS ON WHEN CAR IS PUT IN DRIVE. CAMERA WILL REMAIN ON UNTIL CAR IS SHIFTED OUT OF DRIVE - CAN BE FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME. THIS HAPPENS SPORADICALLY, MAYBE ONCE EVERY 2 WEEKS, BUT HAS HAPPENED FOR THE ENTIRE 11 MONTHS WE HAVE HAD THE CAR. NISSAN HAS OFFERED NO SOLUTION. CAUSES MAJOR DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING.

THE BACK UP CAMERA WILL GET STUCK WHILE IN DRIVE. YOU CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND SEE THE ROAD BEHIND YOU MOVING. THE SCREEN ALSO HAS A LOT OF DISTORTION ON IT AT TIMES MAKING IT HARD TO SEE OBJECTS BEHIND YOU. THEY PURPOSE OF A BACK UP CAMERA IS SAFETY. IT IS NOT SAFE TO HAVE A LARGE MOVING SCREEN IN YOUR CAR WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO DRIVE & LINES & OTHER DISTORTION COULD MAKE OBJECTS (SUCH AS CHILDREN) HARD TO SEE. THE BACK UP CAMERA OCCURS WHEN MOVING AND IN PARK. THE DISTORTION WILL OCCUR WHILE YOU ARE IN REVERSE MOVING OR NOT MOVING. ALL OF THESE THINGS OCCUR INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE AN EMAIL FROM NISSAN SAYING THEY HAVE NO FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO TAKE THE CAR BACK. THEY DON'T SEE HOW THIS COULD POSSIBLY BE A SAFETY HAZARD (YES, THEY HAVE ACTUALLY TOLD ME THIS). ALSO, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE VIDEO DOCUMENTATION SHOWING THESE EVENTS THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE IT. I DON'T WANT SOMEONE GETTING KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS!

POWER TRAIN
MY VEHICLE IS A 2017 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHEN DRIVING AND COMING TO A STOP, THEN ATTEMPTING TO ENTER TRAFFIC OR CLIMB A HILL, THERE IS NO ACCELERATION. IT HAS A HESITATION WHICH IS VERY CONCERNING WHEN ATTEMPTING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC. MY VEHICLE ALMOST APPEARS TO SPUTTER OUT. THIS HAS OCCURRED WITH ME SEVERAL TIMES BUT WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE AT LEAST FOUR TIMES. THE DEALER DID ATTEMPT TO REMEDY THE SITUATION WITH A RECALLED PART ON THE TRANSMISSION, HOWEVER, IT IS STILL HAPPENING. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE SINCE FEBRUARY 2017, STILL ONGOING.

THIS CAR ONLY HAS 244 MILES ON IT. HOWEVER, WHEN I DRIVE IT FOR MORE THAN A FEW MINUTES, I START FEELING A LITTLE DIZZY AND DISORIENTED. ONCE I'M OUT OF THE CAR IN FRESH AIR AGAIN, THE FEELING SLOWLY GOES AWAY. I'M GOING TO CALL THE DEALER (BROWN'S DULLES NISSAN) IN THE MORNING TO GET ON THEIR SCHEDULE AND REQUEST THEY CHECK THE CAR THOROUGHLY, BUT WANTED TO SEE IF NHTSA HAS ANY PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS OR INFORMATION WHICH MIGHT BE HELPFUL. STARTED NOTICING IT LAST WEEK. THE SPEED I'M GOING DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
I RECENTLY BOUGHT A 2017 PATHFINDER. I HAVE OWNED NISSAN PRODUCTS FOR MANY MANY YEARS AND APPRECIATE THE QUALITY AND SAFETY. HOWEVER, MY PATHFINDER HAS WHAT REALLY COULD BE A FATAL FLAW IN THAT THE SIDE MIRRORS, ESPECIALLY THE DRIVERS SIDE ARE TOO HIGH ON THE FRAME TO SAFELY SEE WHEN TURNING.. IT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD. IT IS A LARGE OBSTRUCTION OF VIEW AND COULD BE CORRECTED BY PLACING THE MIRRORS LOWER ON THE FAME. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN LIGHTLY, IT COULD COST LIVES AND VEHICLE DAMAGE AND COULD BE CORRECTED IN FUTURE DESIGN. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR BACK ON THIS ISSUE AND SEE IF YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS. [XXX] 'INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
DRIVER SIDE FOG LIGHT BRACKET BROKE, FOG LIGHT FLEW BACK INTO TRANSMISSION COOLER, TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP, THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS NO IMPACT TO THE LIGHT NOR THE VEHICLE, THAT THE 4 METAL CLIPS ON THE BRACKET SOME HOW BROKE OFF AND THAT THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW THIS COULD HAVE HAPPEN, THEY STATED THEY WERE SENDING THE PART TO NISSAN FOR THEM TO INVESTIGATE AS POSSIBLE FAULTY MATERIAL. THE FOG LIGHT COULD HAVE STRUCK AND DESTROYED THE COOLERS THAT SIT BEHIND IT. THEY REPLACED THE FOG LIGHT HOUSING. VEHICLE WAS BEING PULLED INTO DRIVEWAY WHEN A CLUNKING SOUND WAS HEARD, WHEN CHECKING IS WHEN IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE LIGHT WAS NOT IN THE HOUSING AND WAS LAYING INSIDE THE BUMPER ONLY BEING HELD IN BY THE WIRING
