Back Over Prevention · reported Nov 3, 2026
The infotainment system has failed completely, including the rearview-camera display. When I put the vehicle in reverse, no backup-camera image appears. This reduces rear visibility while backing up. I am requesting that this be documented and addressed as a safety-related concern
Electrical System · reported Nov 2, 2026
Vehicle will drain it's battery over-night occasionally (approximately 2-3 times monthly for me). I park in the garage of my home and will sometimes walk out the truck displaying an error regarding the parking brake. When I go to start the vehicle, it does not and then requires I jump start it. After getting it started, the dashboard lights up with every error under the sun: showing proximity sensor system failures, engine malfunctions, 4WD failures, etc. It typically takes 1-2 drives for the system to fully reset itself and clear the errors.

The technician stated in…

The vehicle was taken to an authorized Nissan dealership, where all three passenger door lock actuators were replaced. Following the repair, the seized lock condition was resolved; however, the underlying malfunction continues. The passenger front and passenger rear doors will unlock electronically but will not lock using the key fob, interior lock switch, or intelligent key functions. The driver rear side door does…
Power Train · reported Jun 26, 2026
While underway at speeds under 20 mph. Vehicle hesitates and lurches creating a danger when taking off from a stop light. Vehicle may delay acceleration from a stop, which can feel unsafe in traffic and in merging situations.This activity is uncontrollable as the driver has no control and could lead to an accident or injury to pedestrians or other wise. Another problem is rough shifting, hard downshifts and a jerking. There is both an audible clunk and felt responce or "shift shock". Potential safety risk of hesitation or unexpected gear changes may compromise vehicle control. I have reported…
