 After a panic stop which activates the abs system, this vehicle is unresponsive to throttle input for an excessive period of time (10 seconds or more). this has been demonstrated to the dealer and a new, similar vehicle showed the same performance. the dealer indicates it must be inherent with the vehicle, no fix is available from nissan. this unresponsiveness after a panic stop is un-safe.

 I was on a highway in heavy traffic, travelling 5 mph in a brand new nissan car that i had recently leased. i had to stop and go several times. during this time my brakes failed sporadically. each time it stopped only after hitting the truck ahead. i was towed to the nearest nissan dealer. it then took me two weeks to get to speak to an appropriate person. he was part of nissan's arbitration department. he said he himself would feel unsafe to drive this car, and that his wife would definitely not let him drive it, even if nissan failed to duplicate the problem. therefore, if nissan can?t duplicate the problem, i need to keep the same car. i have read reports on the nhtsa website that even after cars with similar brake problems were repaired, the same problem recurred. at the time of the incident the mileage on the car was 3200. *tr

 Heating / ac fan suddenly started making loud noises when fan was turned on. this is on a vehicle less than 6 months old. local nissan dealership mechanic investigates the climate control system, discovers the fan area has leaves and debris in it that was causing the noise. nissan refuses to cover the debris removal under the manufacturer warranty, leaving owners on the hook for hundreds of dollars of labor to address a design defect. a brief internet search revealed other rogue owners complaining of the same problem. to make matters worse, the debris clogs up at a point behind the dash that is all but impossible for an owner to reach himself. so when this happens you are pretty much guaranteed an expensive labor bill from the nissan dealership. either that, or go without heating or a/c. i had to pay my dealership $85 in labor to pull a handful of leaves out of a vehicle that is basically brand new. if nissan refuses to design a climate control system that won't frequently clog up with debris, they should at least cover the labor for debris removal under their warranty.
