STRUCTURE:BODY
MY FIRST COMPLAINT IS THE LIFTGATE, I HAD THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER 3/4 TIMES BECAUSE THE AUTOMATIC LIFTGATE OPENS THAN JUST CLOSES ON ITS OWN. I HAD IT CLOSE ON MY HEAD (ONCE GOT A BUMP) SEVERAL TIMES.. EVERY TIME I BRING IT BACK TO THE DEALER THEY TELL ME THAT IT HAD TO BE RESET , OBVIOUSLY THERE IS MORE TO IT THAN JUST RESETTING IT. LAST TIME I WAS THERE THEY SHOWED ME HOW TO RESET IT. THIS ISSUE IS VERY DANGEROUS AS IT DOESNT GIVE ANY WARNING.ALSO 25,000 AND I NEED REAR BRAKES, NEVER DID I HAVE TO REPLACE BRAKES SO SOON.

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET LOCAL NISSAN DEALER TO ADDRESS SEVERAL RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE SINCE JUNE 2016. I WAS TOLD BY MY LOCAL AND SURROUNDING NISSAN DEALERSHIPS THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AND DO NOT KNOW WHEN NISSAN WOULD SHIP THE PARTS TO LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR THE RECALL. I'VE CALLED LOCAL NISSAN EVERY MONTH SINCE JUNE 2016 TO ASK IF THE PARTS ARE IN BUT TO NO AVAIL.

THE COMPANY HAS FAILED TO PROVIDE A FIX FOR THE OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM (OCS). THIS IS PUTTING THE PASSENGER AT RISK OF FATAL INJURY OR RENDERS THE VEHICLE USELESS. I FEEL THEY HAVE HAD MORE THAN ADEQUATE TO GET THIS FIX REMIDIED. IF THEY CANNOT DO SO I WOULD LIKE THEM TO BUY BACK OUR VEHICLE.

POWER TRAIN
CVT TRANSMISSION HAS BEEN SHAKING SINCE THE FIRST MOTH OF PURCHASE. THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 1,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THE DEALER HAS SAID SEVERAL TIMES THERE WAS NO ISSUE WITH THE CAR AND SAID THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE DESPITE MY CONCERNS. EVERY SINGLE TIME I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAND NEW CAR. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN AT LEAST 4 OR 5 TIMES. THE CAR WILL SHAKE SO HARD IT'S ALMOST LIKE THE CAR IS SKIPPING BETWEEN 20-40 MPH AND YOU HAVE TO CLUTCH THE STEERING TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OR DISENGAGE THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING OR TURNING AND AT ANY TIME THE CAR SHIFTS BETWEEN GEARS AT LOW RATES OF SPEED. THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING PROBLEM SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. THIS IS UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND NEEDING TO PICK UP SPEED OR MAKING A TURN ONTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. NISSAN IF FULLY AWARE OF THE TRANSMISSION ISSUES AND CONCERNS OF CONSUMERS IN REGARDS TO THIS ISSUE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE. HOLD NISSAN ACCOUNTABLE, RECALL THIS TRANSMISSION, AND HELP PREVENT NISSAN FROM SELLING FAULTY CARS. *TR

RECEIVED NOTICE OF IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NHTSA RECALL 16V-244 SEVERAL MONTHS AGO WHICH STATED I WOULD HEAR FROM MY DEALERSHIP WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. I'VE JUST CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS INFORMED THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. IF THIS IS SUCH AN "IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL", WHY IS THIS PART STILL NOT AVAILABLE?

CVT TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS AND SHAKES THE WHOLE CAR WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS. VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WHEN SUV SUDDENLY SHAKES SO VIOLENTLY DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECT FROM NISSAN. HAPPENS ABOUT ONCE A MONTH. NISSAN DEALER HAS REFUSED TO REPAIR ANYTHING AS THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE EXACT ISSUE IN A TEST DRIVE. NHTSA PLEASE PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND GET NISSAN TO HONOR THEIR WARRANTY BY FIXING A DANGEROUS AND WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH PATHFINDER'S 2013-2015.

WHEN VEHICLE IS MOVING AT 60 - 65 + MPH, HOOD STARTS JUMPING IN LOCATION JUST UNDER WINDSHIELD AS WIND LIFTS THE HOOD. CROSS WINDS MAKE THE JUMPING MUCH WORSE. THE HOOD LIFTS AS IF IT WILL LIFT UP TO HIT WINDSHIELD EVEN THOUGH IT IS LATCH. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE TRAVELLING ON THE INTERSTATE WITH SMALL CHILDREN IN THE CAR WHICH I HAVE IN THE CAR ALL THE TIME. BEFORE TRAVELLING ON INTERSTATE, I ALWAYS HAVE TO OPEN HOOD AND SLAM DOWN TO MAKE SURE IT IS LATCH BUT THIS DOESN'T HELP AND ALL OF IT CONTINUES.

THE LIGHT ON THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG STAYS LIT WITH SOMEONE SITTING IN THE SEAT. PASSENGER WEIGHT IS 130-175 LBS AND IT STILL ILLUMINATES. WHAT RECOURSE DO I HAVE HERE.
