What Are Examples of Nissan Problems and Complaints?
There are many Nissan models that have known issues and recalls. Nissan will issue what is know as a Technical Service Bulletin(TSB) for a vehicle and provide these to the dealer so that common problems and complaints can be addressed. These TSB’s do not always fix the problem
Some owners of the Nissan vehicles listed below are experiencing many problems, please review for your vehicle and contact our lemon lawyer for a free consultation if your vehicle continues to exhibit problems and issues even after multiple repair attempts.
- 2018 Nissan Leaf battery problems – Defective Forward Collision Avoidance System, Electrical System issues.
- 2019-2021 Nissan Rogue transmission problems – the car makes noises including howling and whining sounds when under heavy acceleration. One owner alleges on CarComplaints.com; “Nissan knows about the problem but is waiting for the transmission to die rather than repair my car. In the meantime, I’m stuck driving an unreliable car since I have to factor “being stranded” into my trips. I’m currently under warranty, but others with Rogues who have had the same problem had their transmissions die at around 40K. My car is a lease so they are gambling that the transmission will die when the car is no longer under warranty. I’m driving a car that is unsafe for me and/or anyone else near me on the road. When my transmission slips, my car moves very slowly, much to the chagrin of other drivers.”
