Common Nissan Nl problems

Nissan vehicles, like those of other automakers, can develop problems that can disrupt the enjoyment of the vehicle. One of the most common issues reported by Nissan owners involves problems with the transmission.

Coolant Leaking into Transmission

A widespread defect affecting the 2005-2007 Pathfinder, Xterra, and Frontier models is the leaking of coolant into the transmission, leading to transmission failure around 90,000 miles. This issue was the subject of a class action lawsuit, and Nissan issued two warranty extensions. However, the extended warranty does not cover the issue in most vehicles. The NHTSA investigated but could not force a recall since no safety issue was involved.

Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) Failure

The 2013-2015 Nissan Altima and 2012-2017 Versa are among the models exhibiting CVT transmission failure. Owners complain about vibration, transmission failure, a whining noise from the power steering pump, and constant windshield cracks that may be due to the vibration. The CVT defect was subject to a class action settlement in 2019, but the settlement only covers transmission repairs up to 7 years after purchase or 84,000 miles, leaving many owners out in the cold.

Jerking When Shifting

The 2000-2003 Altima and 2004-2006 Maxima models are known for experiencing engine issues, including the tendency for the engine to start burning a great deal of oil. This problem can lead to the catalytic converter going out, the head gasket blowing, and the catalytic converter going bad, eventually requiring a complete engine replacement.

Blown Head Gaskets

The 2005 Sentra has earned numerous complaints about blown head gaskets. Some have reported that the design for the gasket is unusual, with bolts stretching when turned, setting them up for failure over time. The only remedy appears to be replacement.

Broken Door Handle

Owners of the 2004 Nissan Murano SUV report the door handle on their vehicles falling off in their hands. Complaints say that using just normal strength to open the vehicle’s doors results in the handle dropping off in their hands. The remedy for most has been going to the dealer for a replacement handle, though there are reports that replacements have fallen off as well.

Battery Problems

Some Nissan Note owners have reported that the battery that came with their vehicle drained too quickly. Putting a bit more charge into the battery can help prevent this issue.

Nissan Leaf Battery Issues

Nissan Leaf owners have reported battery problems, with some experiencing a "bricked" vehicle around 60,000 kilometers. Nissan has been unable to supply the component technicians judged to have failed in the battery for these Leafs, leaving owners with the option of dumping the vehicle at an auto wrecker to be stripped for parts. Some Leaf owners have considered legal action due to Nissan's inability or unwillingness to repair the issue.

Airbag Recall

Perhaps the biggest problem in the automotive industry in recent years has been the massive recall of millions of vehicles due to airbags that can explode, causing serious injury and even death. Several Nissan models were involved, and the company recalled the affected vehicles so that the airbags could be replaced.

Brake Fluid Leaks

In addition to problems with transmissions, coolant leaks, and batteries, Nissan vehicles have also experienced brake fluid leaks. These leaks can lead to a loss of braking power and potential accidents.

Rogue Inventory Problem

Nissan is currently facing an issue with unsold 2023 Rogue models, with as many as 24,000 unsold units clogging up dealer lots nearly a quarter of the way into 2024. Nissan has offered a volume-based retail program to incentivize dealers to sell the older model, but this may lead to price pressure on the 2024 Rogue and affect its residuals.

Nissan Note Common Problems and Quick Fixes

The Nissan Note has been reported to have battery problems, with some owners experiencing a drained battery. To prevent this issue, putting a bit more charge into the battery can help. Other common problems with the Nissan Note include issues with the engine, transmission, and electrical system. While some issues may require professional repair, others can be fixed with simple maintenance or adjustments.

What is the main problem with a Nissan Juke?

Some noteworthy Nissan Juke issues include grinding noises from the transmission, turbocharger failure, transmission failure, and engine failure. You should avoid the 2011 and 2014 model years of the Juke because it has a timing chain problem that can cause the engine to fail.

What is the downside of Nissan Juke?

Space and practicality

Though you do sit quite high in the Juke, giving you a decent view out of the front, there's a bit of a cramped feeling inside. It's not uncomfortable, but if you want more space to stretch out, the likes of the Skoda Kamiq and Volkswagen T-Cross will appeal more.

What is the weakness of the Nissan Note?

Nissan Note owners commonly report that the gears frequently slip when shifting gear. The usual culprit is a defective torque converter, which can be expensive to replace.
