So my seat pump which raises and lowers my seat went out and broke. Nissan has said itâs covered under warranty. Itâs been 40 days since Nissan was first notified and they have my order on backorder. They refuse to give me a rental or park my car on their dealership lot while it awaits the part. The part is still on backorder for another estimated 2 weeks according to Nissan and they refused me a buyback and willingly and knowingly tell me to keep driving the defective vehicle. I have almost been in two car accidents form the lack of vision. I am [XXX] and canât rent a car and the only people who can waive the rental is Nissan and they refuse that as well. The Attorney general and the…

The rearview backup camera system on my 2026 Nissan Sentra is malfunctioning. The camera image is extremely blurry and grainy, making it nearly unusable and preventing me from clearly seeing the area behind the vehicle when reversing. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request, and the camera malfunction can be demonstrated by placing the vehicle in reverse.The severely blurry and grainy backup camera image creates a safety hazard when reversing because I cannot clearly identify pedestrians, children, other vehicles, obstacles, or objects behind my vehicle. This significantly reduces my ability to safely maneuver in parking lots, driveways, and other areas where people or vehicles…

On XXX, while driving a 2026 Nissan Sentra rental with approximately 5,000 miles, I was traveling about 75 mph on a freeway in [XXX]. The vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly rapidly decelerated/braked and became disabled. I had no warning before the failure and was barely able to get partially out of the travel area. After stopping, the vehicle was effectively immobilized. I could not shift it into neutral or otherwise move it safely completely out of danger. The steering/wheels would not allow us to move the vehicle normally. During the incident, the vehicle displayed a message stating that a system/software update was required. During the update process, I was unable to operate the…

Safety issue. I was on the highway when I has a flat. I opened the trunk to get the jack and spare , but to my surprise I found only styrofoam where the spare and jack should be. I called the dealer where I purchased the car and was told Nissan no longer provides those items. This was a real safety concern for me. Im a [XXX] female, often traveling out of town alone and I find Styrofoam! I was stuck on the side of the road...alone. More concerning to me was what if this had been my [XXX] granddaughter sitting there alone. Autos should always have basic safety equipment. Dealers should not be allowed to only provide a spray foam sealant. This flat was a tire replacemnet, a sealant will not…

Was going down some s curves when the car started trying to turn me to the left when I needed to go right. I started trying to correct it but I had no control of the steering wheel. The car then immediately accelerated which in turn made me flip end over end 3 times . My air bag didn't deploy and my seat belt let me fly out the seat and bounce around the car

Subject: Request for Assistance Regarding Safety Concern with 2026 Nissan Sentra , I am writing to respectfully request your assistance regarding a significant concern with my recently purchased 2026 Nissan Sentra.

Shortly after taking delivery of the vehicle, I noticed that the backup camera produces an image that appears blurry and lacks the clarity necessary to confidently identify objects, pedestrians,…
