Hood latch allowed hood to fly open at 30 mph, causing $3100 worth of damage to car, Potentially causing serious other vehicular/occupant injuries. Apparently the latch was inadvertently engaged, but the secondary latch did not hold and let the hood fly open. This incident happened 8/2023 but was not reported to Nissan and while estimate was obtained, repairs were not made.
When door assembly went out the door was stuck in the locked position the drivers door couldn’t be opened from inside or outside with or without the key. even if you manually opened the lock from the inside you couldn’t get out
MY PASSENGER DOOR HAS BEEN CATCHING ON SOMETHING AS IT OPENS. THE BLACK PLASTIC PIECE THAT STRETCHES OUT AS YOU OPEN THE DOOR IS VISIBLY SCRATCHED, AS IF IT IS CATCHING ON METAL IN THE DOOR. THE WINDOW ALSO HAS BEEN GETTING STUCK AND WOULD NOT ROLL DOWN ALL THE WAY. THIS WEEKEND THE DOOR WAS HARD TO OPEN, AND WHEN I OPENED THE DOOR, THE WINDOW GOT OFF TRACK. MY BOYFRIEND AND I TRIED TO SEE IF WE COULD MOVE IT, BUT DID NOT WANT TO MESS IT UP ANY MORE THAN IT ALREADY WAS. HE WENT TO ROLL IT DOWN JUST A LITTLE, AND THE WHOLE WINDOW SHATTERED. I DONT KNOW WHAT CAUSED THIS, BECAUSE THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. THE CAR WAS OFF AND PARKED.
