POWER TRAIN
THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE SLIPPING. AT LOW RPMS THERE IS A NOTICEABLE METALLIC SOUND AND LOSS OF POWER, ESPECIALLY WHEN MAKING LEFT OR RIGHT TURNS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AT LEAST THREE TIMES WITHOUT THEM FINDING A SOLUTION OR BEING ABLE TO FIX THE ISSUE. INSTEAD I'M BEING TOLD THAT THE HEAT SHIELD IS THE ISSUE AND THAT IT HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OFF EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS.

PURCHASED THE CAR IN JANUARY 2019 COMPLETE HOOD LATCH SYSTEM HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED IN FEBRUARY. THAT WAS MAJOR PROBLEM ONE. THE HOOD WOULDN'T CLOSE. PROBLEM 2. EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE CAR I GET AN ALERT THAT UNAVAILABLE FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION. AS IF SOMETHING IS BLOCKING THE SENSOR. IT WILL BE A CLEAR DAY NOTHING IN MY WAY AND THIS POPS UP. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE CAR BREAK FOR NO REASON DUE TO THIS!!!!! NISSAN IS AWARE OF THE SITUATION AND I WAS TOLD THE NEW SENSOR IS ON BACKORDER. EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE! HOPING FOR A BUY BACK SO I CAN GET OUT OF THIS NIGHTMARE OF A CAR. ALSO THE CAR WILL ALWAYS BE IN MOTION WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I HAVE ALSO HAD IT WHERE THE CAR BEEPS AS IF I AM GOING TO HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND THERE IS NO CAR IN FRONT OF ME!

FOUR SEPARATE TIMES AS I WAS DRIVING A WARNING APPEARED THAT SAID " FRONT RADAR UNAVAILABLE DUE TO OBSTRUCTION". I AM UNDER WARRANTY, TOOK TO COGGIN NISSAN @ THE AVENUES JACKSONVILLE FL. THEY ARE AWARE OF FAULTY SENSOR PROBLEMS BUT REFUSED TO FIX THE ISSUE STATING THAT THEY DID NOT SEE THE WARNING WHEN THEY DROVE IT AND THEIR ANTIQUATED COMPUTER CHECKER COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. THEY KEPT MY CAR FOR 5 HOURS AND DID NOT REPLACE THE FAULTY SENSOR THAT NISSAN CORP IS TOTALLY AWARE OF. THIS DEALER SAID THEY WON'T GET REINBURSED FROM NISSAN FOR THE PART UNLESS I CAN PROVE THAT I AM RECEIVING THESE MESSAGES. THAT IS THEIR WAY OUT OF HAVING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR NOW AND ONLY HAVE 15,930 MILES ON IT ! MANY NISSAN MODELS HAVE THIS FAULTY SENSOR. THEY ALSO DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE RADIO/NAVIGATION SCREEN FREEZING AND TURNING ALL BLACK. SAME EXCUSE THAT THEIR COMPUTER CHECKER CAN'T "DUPLICATE" THE PROBLEM. THERE IS A DEFINITE ISSUE AS I HAVE DISCOVERED AFTER RESEARCHING NISSAN ISSUES, THE SENSOR IS RANDOMLY DEACTIVATING ITSELF AND NISSAN IS AWARE IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE THIRD PARTY COMPONENT FROM BOSCH, BUT WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL.
