While exiting the freeway/slowing to stop at a light, my front collision light came on and no one was ahead of me. While still in motion my vehicles engine shut off and I had to pull the emergency brake to regain control of the vehicle. I put my foot on the break at the light and shifted the car from drive to park. Keeping my foot on the break started the engine with the push button which had trouble turning over and the dash lit up the following lights: Master indicator, slip warning and automatic emergency breaking system warning. On the digital display it read something to do with emissions but went away before I could take the photo. When the light turned green I gave gas to the vehicle and it struggled to gain speed over 5 mph for over 1000 feet then went back to normal speeds and the other lights went off and only the check engine light came on and stayed on. The next day as I was pulling out of my driveway to take my vehicle to the dealer, my vehicle shut off again but no display this time, just completely shut off.I've also had issues with the center display and controls since I purchased a vehicle just over a year ago. The radio turns on and off on its own turn the volume up and down on its own which I can sometimes control from the steering wheel but never from the center. Even when using steering wheel controls the radio will do its own thing. So I could be driving with the radio off and it will be on full blast I turn it down with the steering wheel and it will go back to full blast. The very next day after the first incident listed I took my car to the dealership. As I left the radio proved to be not fixed. I immediately went to to fix it & was told a week for the part to come. I contacted corporate after investigation, they would not buy back my car which is just over a year old with 15,500 miles. No receipt given after replacing center consol.

Driving like normal and the car ahead of me slammed on their brakes to avoid a wreck I slammed on mine to prevent this afterward traffic started moving on and the collision and impact sensor came on but I didn't hit anything. I have looked at the manual and it will not tell the owner me how to get the crash light to go off. Even online you can find nothing about how to reset or turn off the alert. The other alert is for the assisted braking feature it didn't work but the light came on but will not go off and there are no instructions on how to reset it or take it off. Not even the factory reset or unplugging the battery will make it go off. I bought an extended warranty and the dealer I purchased the Kicks from said they would fix the error but they will charge me to do so which I think is wrong since it is not wrecked but just malfunctioning. If I knew to get something on the Kicks was going to be like pulling teeth II would have stuck with the Altima as I did with my last previous purchases with Nissan. Not happy and it's just like with the touch screen it freezes up and the usb to it will quit working to the point you have to turn off the engine just so it will work again every once in a while and I was thinking my cords weren't operating right or worn out.

I purchased this vehicle a Nissan Kicks 2019 at naples Nissan in May 2019 at 5 miles and it started having problems in September 2019. Swaying and shimmy feelings, floating on the highway especially over bumps and lane changes in the rain its worse. I took it to naples Nissan told them the problem they said the road was unlevel after requesting the manager they put it on machine and claim it needed a wheel alignment.I got the wheel alignment same situation. Honestly I didn't think it was a wheel alignment issue because the steering wheel was not off but what do I know. All I knew was it felt the same way scary, unsafe and dangerous.I contacted Nissan corporate office and was told to take to another dealer which I did. After taking it to surtherlin Nissan they check the vehicle and claim there was nothing wrong said it was the wind.they had my vehicle all day and only drove the car for 6 miles and stated 2 people drove vehicle and found no problems and that since I had a truck which was a Nissan armanda theres a difference. I drive this car one and half hours every day, I have numerous amount of cars never felt this before. I almost got into accident due to car going in its on direction. I had to take days off of work. I am scare to drive or allow my daughter to drive this car it's a serious problem it's scary, unsafe and dangerous for my life and others I need someone help. Thank you
