What owners wrote
1-- the dashboard is has a bigger gap on the driver side in relation to the door than the passenger side. 2- tires don't respond immediately when driving off from a parking lot where the surface is not too smooth(not smooth enough) 3.the brakes don't work properly when driving les than 35 miles an hour it rolls instead of stopping the car at point of contact with the brake pedal
I have been to the nissan dealership multiple times trying to figure out why my vehicle loses power randomly and why the car randomly shifts gears and reduces speed even with my foot on the gas. Yet while it does this the RPM needle surges between 3000 to 4500. Vehicle has no codes and dealership claims they can't reproduce the problem.
