| Back on july as i was on the hwy, set my cruise control, for the first time since i've owened my nissan, at 55mph, the speeddometer stopped working, my right headlight went out. now ever since then, it has gotten worse, i have replaced the right headlight 3 times . i've noticed that when i grab the handle of the turn signal it crackles, and causes the headlights to flicker, and the odometer doesn't work when the speed control is on zero while driving. | |||

| As i was driving on city street, my car started accelerating on its own. when i shifted into neutral, the rpm shot up to 4-5000. the breaks were too hard and failed to stop the car until it was in neutral. the mechanic found the origin of the problem in a faulty cruise control. eventually the nissan dealership disconnected the cruise control. this happened last week and so far i have not experienced any other problem. dealership believes that tihs was a failure of an electronic component as a normal wear and tear. i disagree, since the problem also caused the motor mounts to crack and i had to repair those. | |||

| For the fourth time in as many months, my headlight has gone out. it has yet to be the light that is the problem. it seems the connector to the light is the problem. this has happened three times on the passenger side and once on the driver's side. i could understand even two events, once on each side. four times is too many. i usually drive alone, most of the time only to and from work. however, having headlights that are not dependable is not a comfort to me. my mechanic said the supplier told him he had lots of this particular part. this tells me that i am not the only one, i just may be the only one complaining. however, if this were your daughter would you want her driving a car that has no dependable headlights. *jb | |||

| Electrical wiring: headlights and taillights. first the passenger headlight went out. pressing on the connector would make it work. i disassembled connector/wiring and reassembled it. it has been working. next the driver headlight went out. pressing on the connector will make it work. while my wife was driving another driver informed her that the tail lights where out. no blown fuses, burnt wires or connectors found. will try to correct today. in addition i filed a complaint on the radio display which went out one week after warranty. dealer will not cover radio. | |||
