TRUCK WILL NOT OPEN INTERMITTENTLY. OPENS 1 INCH B ACK AND FORTH ONCE PUSHED WILL DROP ONTO PERSON NO SENSOR . HAS BEEN TO DEALERSHIP 5+ TIMES SENT VIDEOS NO ISSUE. RADIO RANDOMLY DELETES STATIONS AND BLACKS OUT WITH NAVIGATION. TRUNK ONGOING LAST HAPPENED END JUNE

I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND MY AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. I WAS STOPPED ON THE INTERSTATE AND HIT IN THE REAR AT A HIGH SPEED. THEN MY SUV HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. IT CAUSED CLOSE TO $9000 IN DAMAGE.

ANTI COLLISION LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND BEEPING INTERMITTENTLY AND VEHICLE SEEMS TO JERK WHEN PROBLEM OCCURS. THERE IS NO OTHER VEHICLE AROUND ME. AND ANTI COLLISION LIGHT STAYS ON UNTIL VEHICLES IS TURNED OFF THEN ON AGAIN PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED 3 TIMES IN 1 WEAK .DRIVING FREEWAY 2 TIMES 1 CITY DRIVING STRAIGHT AHEAD. AND WHEN VEHICLES JERKS AFRAID IT JUST WANTS TO JUST STOP IN MOTION WERE I'M AT BUT DOESN'T.

THE FRONT RADAR SAFETY FEATURE DEACTIVATES AND THE AMBER FRONT COLLISION WARNING LIGHT COMES ON. THE SPEED CONTROL FEATURE IS DISABLED WHEN THE RADAR IS NOT ACTIVE. WHEN THE SYSTEM FINALLY KICKS IN THE SPEED CONTROL SUDDENLY ACCELERATES WITHOUT WARNING. THE SUDDEN ON/OFF SCENARIO IS DANGEROUS AND WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFETY FEATURE IS NOW ACTUALLY A HAZARD. A CAR SHOULD NOT UNEXPECTEDLY ACCELERATE TO THE SPEED CONTROL LIMIT 10-15 MINUTES AFTER IT WAS SET.

I PURCHASED MY 2018 PATHFINDER IN MARCH 2018 AND BEFORE I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT THE MIL LIGHT CAME ON. THEY TOOK IT TO THE SERVICE DEPT, SAID THEY FIXED IT. I DROVE IT HOME AND ON THE WAY HOME YOU COULD FEEL THE CAR STUTTER AND WHEN OUTSIDE OF THE CAR YOU COULD HEAR THE ENGINE MISFIRE. THE AEB LIGHT, SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT AND MIL CAME ON. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY NEVER COULD FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX IT. THEY ENDED UP FINDING ANOTHER CAR LIKE MINE AND I TRADED VEHICLES. NOW OVER A YEAR LATER THE AEB LIGHT AND SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT HAVE COME ON A COUPLE TIMES. WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A SENSOR THAT WAS RECALLED. THEY FIXED THAT. NOW THE AEB LIGHT AND SLIP INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN. CALLED TO GET A SERVICE APPT - DAYS LATER THE MIL LIGHT CAME ON. IT IS CURRENTLY IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP. I DO NOT FEEL LIKE THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE HAPPENING ALREADY. THE CAR IS LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD. HAVING THE SAME LIGHTS AND PROBLEMS WITH 2 CARS THAT ARE IDENTICAL IS SCARY. THERE IS A PROBLEM - IT WAS NOT A FLUKE. EVERYTIME THE INDICATOR LIGHTS COME ON I AM DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. YOU CAN FEEL THE CAR STUTTER AND YOU KNOW THE LIGHTS ARE GOING TO COME ON. THEN THE CAR JERKS A LITTLE AND THE LIGHTS COME ON. AFTERWARDS YOU CAN FEEL THE CAR STRUGGLE AT TIMES - LIKE IT ISN'T GETTING ENOUGH GAS. ALTHOUGH NOW THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON THE CAR IS MISFIRING - YOU CAN HEAR IT WHEN IT IS IDLING IN THE DRIVEWAY.

FAULTY RADAR ON MY NISSAN PATHFINDER IS COMPROMISING MY EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM. IT FREQUENTLY DEACTIVATES ITSELF THEREBY DISABLING MY CRUISE CONTROL AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM. A WARNING FLASHES ON THE DASHBOARD TO INDICATE THE PROBLEM: FRONT RADAR UNAVAILABLE. IN MY VIEW THE EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM IS UNRELIABLE. A RECALL AND A FIX SHOULD BE ORDERED.

FRONT RADAR MODULAR INTERMITTENTLY UNAVAILABLE. ARTICLE FOUND STATING NISSAN WAS WORKING ON A FIX, IS IT AVAILABLE YET? 2 DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENTS AND AN AGENT AT NISSAN USA KNEW NOTHING ABOUT IT. WHILE DRIVING WITH THE INTELLIGENT CRUISE CONTROL ON, SUDDENLY IT SHUTS OFF AND A MESSAGE ON SCREEN STATES, UNAVAILABLE FRONT RADAR OBSTRUCTION. 2-15 MINUTES LATER IT ALLOWS START UP AGAIN. THIS SEEMS TO BE TOTALLY RANDOM. HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES ON A 2500 MILE TRIP.

REAR LIFT GATE DOOR JAMS AND THE MOTORIZED FUNCTION WILL NOT OPEN OR CLOSE THE DOOR. THE DOOR CANNOT BE OPENED WITH THE KEY OR THE SWITCH ON THE DASHBOARD. THE ONLY WAY TO OPERATE IT IS BY MANUAL FORCEFULLY OPENING OR CLOSING AGAINST THE LIFT ARMS. THE MECHANISM WAS REPLACED BECAUSE IT IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, IT STARTED DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN.

METAL RATTLING NOISE COMING FROM UNDER THE CAR WHEN ACCELERATING AROUND 1,500RPM-2,000 RPM. I WENT TO TWO NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN TOTAL THREE TIMES BUT THE PROBLEM WAS NOT SOLVED. THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO WHICH IS RIDICULOUS. I HEARD FROM ONE PERSON WHO WAS IN THE STORE WITH ME THAT HIS 2018 PATHFINDER WAS RECALLED FOR THE RATTLING NOISE. HIS CAR WAS AN AWD SO IT MAY BE DIFFERENT, BUT I THINK IT MAY HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON. THE DEALER JUST CHECKED MY VIN NUMBER AND AS THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR IT THEY WOULD NOT CHECK IT ANY FURTHER. REALLY WORRIED SINCE THE NOICE IS CONTINUING FOR OVER 3 MONTHS NOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 NISSAN PATHFINDER. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE SUN ROOF EXPLODED WITHOUT WARNING. THE EXPLOSION MADE AN ABNORMAL BANGING SOUND SIMILAR TO GUN FIRE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE CONTACT CALLED KELLY NISSAN OF WOBURN (95 CEDAR ST, WOBURN, MA 01801, (781) 835-3500) TO INFORM THEM OF THE FAILURE, BUT AN APPOINTMENT WAS NOT SCHEDULED BECAUSE THE DEALER WAS CLOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.
