Why can't Nissan update their software with confidence? I would not go to Nissan of Irvine (Irvine Ca) - they are boobs and unskilled.

radio freezes

Apparently not much resources to make this right. The Nissan support suggested factory reset which did not work due to same issue of DC1 module fail. After I posted online, more people facing the same problem came to share their issue as well.

Altima SL 3.5L

Radio freezes and or reboots while listening to satellite radio. Radio will freeze up for 2-3 minutes, or sometimes it's until you turn the car off. Then it will reboot and work fine for a little while.
