I purchased new vehicle March 10th the tire pressure came on soon as I purchased I took the car back it to big O Dodge get checked out but they told me they did not know and to take it by the Nissan dealer. I went to the Nissan service and all four tire sensors were bad and needed to be fixed the dealer (big O Dodge)would not help. They told me that they did not believe me or the Nissan service department. I also noticed that the front grille area of my car had small damage that they would not acknowledge that as well.

2017 Nissan Maxima sl. Had ABS recall serviced at tim dahle Nissan of orem, Utah. Retrieved car after service was completed and shortly after, my fry into emergency braking system deactivates after driving about 5-8 minutes every time I get in my car. When I turn off my car and restart my car, it works again. I called the dealership where work was performed and they stated fixing the recall would not have caused this issue and that I would have to pay for a diagnostic check $1xx.xx and I don't recall the estimated prices she stated for the sensors, brackets, and labor. I will be contacting Nissan themselves to see what option are since other 2017 Nissan Maxima owners are experiencing this issue.

1) the front radar obstruction warning comes on randomly when there is no obstruction while vehicle is in motion. 2) driver side door lock stops working for days (this is the 5th time and I have reported it to orr Nissan in searcy, ar) started messing up while there was still warranty but they couldn't find anything wrong due to it not messing up when they could get it in to look at. The key fob, outside button, and inside button works all other door locks except driver door- have to use the key to unlock/lock driver door. Can hear the part inside the door reacting in a slow manner prior to it not working. Very aggravating when has been reported many, many times and not being fixed due to it not messing up at appointments. Tried to get an appointment today while it's messing up but was told it would be next week before it can be looked at (probably won't be messed up then!)

While driving the forward emergency brake light comes on. After it comes on there is a reduction of power. It disables cruise control. This happens when the vehicle is in motion on a city street or when you go to take off.

I purchased 2017 Nissan Maxima sv on January 23, 2019 with 40,584. While driving the vehicle, post purchase, unsure of date, "front radar obstruction" began appearing on the instrument panel. On June 27, 2019 a local Nissan dealership documented radar distance sensor requires replacement..

Front forward collision sensor automatically engaged emergency braking system without any obstruction being in the roadway which caused a sudden unsafe lockup of the brakes. I was on a large airport parking ramp in motion. There is also numerous times when the front radar sensor deactivates and says unavailable due to front radar obstruction.
