Hi I did not wreck my car. This has occurred for over a year. My windshield wipers quit working and then they work sporadically. My husband bought a new motor last year but when we checked it the motor said it was fine so we sent the new one back. I have taken my car to the Nissan dealership but when I got on the road to take it my windshield wipers started working again. I took there anyway and they charged me $160 I still have the receipt. They said they didn't see anything wrong but I honestly think they didn't look. Yesterday I took it to another mechanic Fastlane in Hiram Georgia Brandon looked at it and said it was the motor was not getting enough juice. We are going tomorrow to get another Motor at O'Reilly's in Dallas Ga today is On [XXX] and [XXX] I had to drive my car to work with no windshields wipers I had no choice. I have never had a car that this happened to. I have a really nice car and shouldn't even have to write this. My brother passed away in a car wreck and I shouldn't even have to think about getting in my car and dying because of the windshield wipers not working when I'm trying to drive. This has been going on for over a year. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My drivers side window doesn’t go up and down consistently, also just spent 1500.00 for a total tune up, always do my oil changes tires brakes etc. now I’m driving down the road and my car jerked so hard it caused my forearm to beep the horn and the driver behind me just missed rear ending me. It happened two more times driving very slow to get home and again almost got rear ended. I spent 32,000.00 for this car not even six years old. I have a 2007 Nissan Versa bottom of the line that has over 200,000 miles no problems. Nissan is very aware of the problem with these CVT’s and the extended warranty isn’t helping me as I drive a lot for work all highway, I can’t even work right now! This is ridiculous! They tried to tell me that 125,000 is a lot of miles I was like are you kidding me this is a 32,000.00 car! My Versa was 16,000 and almost ten years older and still going strong. If they are ok with these cars some only lasting from 45,000 miles to 125,000 miles then the price should be reduced severely!

I HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER TWICE NOW BECAUSE OF PASSENGER HEADLIGHT OUT, AND ALSO THE LICENSE PLATE LIGHTS OUT. WHEN I WENT TO REPLACE BULBS BOTH LIGHTS WERE IN WORKING ORDER. THE HEADLIGHT WAS WORKING WHEN I FIRST STARTED DRIVING. IT QUIT WHILE IN MOTION. THE LICENSE PLATE LIGHT QUIT WORKING ON A DIFFERENT OCCASION AND I AM NOT 100% SURE IF IT WORKED WHEN I FIRST STARTED TO DRIVE. I WAS PULLED OVER AND GIVEN A TICKET. THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO NEAREST AUTO PARTS STORE AND PURCHASED NEW BULBS. WHEN I WENT TO REPLACE BOTH BULBS THEY WERE BOTH WORKING. I OBVIOUSLY AM UNABLE TO SAY IF THEY BOTH QUIT WHILE DRIVING, HOWEVER I NOW CHECK ALL LIGHTS BEFORE DRIVING ANYWHERE.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE IN 2016 BRAND NEW. NOT EVEN A YEAR INTO OWNING THE VEHICLE, AT 12,497 MILES ON 5/1/2017, MY AC STOPPED WORKING AND NOTHING WAS BLOWING OUT OF THE VENTS. THE PART THAT WAS REPAIRED/REPLACED ON MY INVOICE STATES, "RPL THERMISTOR/THERMO CONTROL AMPLIFIER. THE AC STOPPED WORKING A SECOND TIME AT 14,976 MILES ON 8/14/2017. THIS TIME, THE PART THAT WAS REPAIRED/REPLACED ON THE INVOICE STATES, "RPL FAN & MOTOR". MY AC STOPPED WORKING A THIRD TIME AT 54,644 MILES ON 6/10/2020. THE PART THAT WAS REPAIRED/REPLACED ON THE INVOICE STATES, "RPL BLOWER RESISTOR/CONTROL AMPLIFIER." THIS TIME, I FINALLY REPORTED IT TO NISSAN AND THEY GAVE ME A "GOODWILL ADJUST" WHERE THEY OFFERED TO PAY 70% OF THE REPAIRS DUE TO BEING OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY. YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO BELIEVE THIS, BUT IT HAPPENED A FOURTH TIME AT 60,509 MILES ON 1/5/2021, BUT THIS TIME IT WAS DURING THE WINTER AND THE HEAT WOULD NOT COME OUT OF THE BLOWERS. THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP THAT TRIED TO DIAGNOSE MY VEHICLE ($140 DIAGNOSIS FEE) SAID THAT THEY WOULD NEED TO TAKE APART THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD (WHICH WOULD BE 1-2 HOURS OF LABOR AT $140/HOUR) BECAUSE THEY "TRACED AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITHIN THE DASHBOARD HARNESS, WOULD NEED FURTHER DIAG IN ORDER TO CONFIRM REPAIR NEEDED". BASICALLY, THE SERVICE ADVISOR WHO CALLED ME FROM THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THEY ALREADY NEED TO REPLACE THE PART THAT WAS JUST INSTALLED 6/10/2020 (NOT EVEN 6 MONTHS AGO) BECAUSE IT IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE, THEY WOULD MOST LIKELY NEED TO REPLACE THE BLOWER MOTOR, AND EITHER REPAIR OR REPLACE WIRING, WHICH COULD BE OVER $4,000 TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD HARNESS. I CONTACTED NISSAN AGAIN AND EXPLAINED THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE 12,497 OF OWNING THE VEHICLE AND BECAUSE THEY ALREADY HELPED ME ONCE OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY, THEY WILL NOT HELP ME AGAIN.

CLOGGED SUNROOF DRAINS HAVE CAUSE THE CABIN OF THE CAR TO GET A LOT OF WATER. CONDENSATION/WATER BUILDUP ON THE INTERIOR OF WINDSHIELD IS CONSTANTLY OCCURRING CAUSING MY ABILITY TO SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD TO BE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. LITTLE ELECTRICAL ISSUES HAVE BEEN HAPPENING, SUCH AS TURN SIGNAL BULBS GOING OUT. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS A VERY MOLDY/MILDEW SMELL THAT'S PROBABLY KILLING MY LUNGS.
