The tire maintenance notification stays on after the tires have been properly rotated by a tire shop and reset on dashboard and it pulls to the right been doing this complaint made to dealership no response and now received notification that there was a safety recall on my car. It does it while driving the pulling to the right and the tire maintenance stays on.
Car idling, jerking and hesitating at 30mph. When accelerating it does not. The car is going but from a slow speed going to a higher mph, it will stay stuck and if you floor it, it just won't move. This is dangerous. It's happened on the freeway three times. Now the brake fluid is leaking everywhere. This is a second issue. Transmission. Engine. Cvt, ECM issue and mass air flow sensor and pvc sensor must not be on correctly. I have videos. The service dept has seen them but they can't seem to duplicate the issue.

Aeb light and brake light came on dashboard Feb symbols displays on dash per Nissan, my vehicle is very unsafe to drive and per owners manual recall before I bought the car but was sold to me without being fixed and wasn't notified by dealership.

Cruise control drops out while engaged under all road/weather conditions. Dashboard indication "front radar unavailable due to obstruction" seems well documented online for several other Nissan vehicles. System will reset itself after several minutes, but also drops out and is non-functional intermitently, essentially making the tracking cruise control inoperable.

The anti-lock brake pump leaked brake fluid onto a circuit board, causing an electrical fire which caused my car to catch on fire. This resulted in the vehicle being totaled out. The vehicle was stationary for about 12 hours in front of home. While on fire the vehicle started itself up without anyone being in the vehicle.
I experienced a loss of brake pressure when starting my car and was able to stop the car only from a low speed. The car was towed to the closest dealer, martin Nissan in skokie il. The dealer reported a fluid leak and that the master cylinder had failed. The dealer replaced the master cylinder but still observed that there was still a loss of brake pressure. The dealer then replaced the ABS brake actuator which resolved the brake pressure issue. The ABS brake actuator has been replaced twice before on this vehicle, once under NHTSA safety recall campaign 16V193000 and once under NHTSA safety recall campaign 16V636000.

2016 Nissan Maxima breaks squeak on every stop. Dealer, hears the noise, claims resurfaced rotors, sanded break pads however the noise persists. Concern over the reliability of the breaking system. Had dealer look at the breaks 5 separate appointments. They now say the noise is associated with the pads and I have to live with it. My concern is there may be a deeper issue that they are not addressing. I commute 100 miles daily on a major highway. I am expressing this concern for someone to look into the safety of this issue. New car breaks just don't squeal on each breaking action. Please review and advise me of any avenue that I can use to get this addressed as well as take my comments to address others with the same concern. Thank you.
