Nissan Kicks

On the morning of October 19 at approximately 6:16 AM, I was driving the vehicle to my sister's home roughly 15 miles away. About 5 miles into the journey, without any other vehicles around or any external impact, I heard a loud boom. Upon pulling over to inspect the car, I discovered that the rear windshield had spontaneously shattered and exploded, held in place entirely by the window tint. Based on the environmental conditions and vehicle operation at the time, I believe this failure was…

The stereo randomly spikes to 100 and says alarm interrupt. It gets VERY loud and is very startling which is scary when driving. It has almost caused a wreck multiple times.

After a refuel, I noticed the gas was being auto stopped before what I know to be full based on length of time pumping and cost. After driving several days the gas meter did not lose notches despite the mileage showing a decrease in available miles. I am concerned I will be driving and run out of gas at a dangerous time due to not being able to read an accurate fuel level.

My 2024 Nissan Kicks, with approximately 50,000 miles, experienced a spontaneous rear windshield failure on October 13, 2026, while parked in my residential driveway.

Got a diagnosis they thought it was a wheel bearings and sensor but the car didn’t accelerate again. And stopped working.

The center high-mounted brake light flashes/pulses approximately three times before becoming a steady light. this is not a single momentary flicker. The light intentionally flashes/pules approximately three times at the initial application of the brakes and then changes to a steady-burning condition. The vehicle was purchased from a Nissan/Wyler dealership on October 28, 2024. I am concerned that the initial flashing/pulsing operation of the required center high-mounted stop lamp may not…

Engine timing and Transmission failed and replaced before 90,000 miles,

Was driving at low speed after entering a parking lot and the engine quit. When I attempted to restart the starter would not engage. The power widows still functioned. A subsequent check of the battery indicated it is fully charged. Had this occurred at Highway speed it could have been dangerous situation since the power brakes and power steering were not functional.
