I will see a warning notice in my dashboard while I'm driving on city streets and sometimes on the highway, during clear weather and rainy weather that says �front end collision undetectable� and my rear collision camera will sometime either have vertical lines or go completely out. This was supposed to have been fixed by musiccity autoplex in nashville, TN in late October of 2019.

Several times while normal driving and nothing in roadway the display will say unauthorized object in view and there's nothing there happens several times a day scares me at first cause I think something wrong and takes 10 minutes for display warning light to turn off.
I bought my car in February 2021 and me not knowing anything about vehicles I first heard the popping noise when I backed my car out of the driveway. I thought it was something to do with the steering wheel. I recently had someone to look at the car and they said it was my front axles going bad, this could be a safety issue. I have to work with mentally challenged people and I have to transport them back-and-forth to doctors appointments. Is there anyway that there could be a recall on those axles because I know someone else who has an Altima just like mine and hers does the same thing . It’s very embarrassing to hear that popping noise and I’m afraid that my car will break down because of it and my front crash light stays on constantly. Please help me resolve this issue. I’ve been dealing with it since I bought the car. .
The hood of my car keeps jamming but has a weird noise at times while in motion. The dealership is no longer in business I'm guessing because no one neither the cars are there. It's an empty lot. . The last time as I was driving around a curvy street the hood popped opened unexpectedly.
Display on my vehicle keeps saying front radar obstruction although nothing is either on the road nor in front of my vehicle. This does this without warning at least 5-6 times while I'm driving on city streets, highway or just turning. At random the warning will show and the lights will come up on my driver panel then a few mins later it goes off.
I was driving on a slightly damp road in the evening (dark). A warning flashed on my dashboard saying that their was obstruction in the road. Suddenly my braking assistance activated causing my car to come to a complete stop. I checked my surroundings, nothing was in the road, beside me, or behind me. Nissan has not claim responsibility for this sensor error. Instead told me that there were damages to my bumper, which was hard to believe. I was recommended to contact my insurance company. An appraiser found no damages to my car or bumper. Case has been dismissed by insurance company.

Every time I am driving, the automatic emergency braking light illuminates at around 55mph and it stays lit constantly. The system automatically brakes when nothing is in front of my vehicle almost causing the person behind me to hit me. The cruise control will not allow me to set it after turning it on either.
The front end collision warning goes off less than a mile after I begin driving. It was repaired after an accident (unrelated) & was fine until my state had snowfall that covered the road, that's when it began again! my cruise control suddenly stopped working & the metal piece that props up the hood snapped off when checking the oil, luckily I seen it snap and was able to jump back! gear shift sticks in park & sometimes even with my foot on the bake it wont start!.
The forward collision warning malfunctions and a warning light is displayed. This used to be an intermittent problem which now occurs every time I drive the vehicle. This is an important safety feature in the vehicle.
The collision lights keep coming on I have taken this car to Nissan now abour 4/5 times and have to take it again as the problem is never resolved. I wrote to corporate and was brushed off. Its a safety issue now because if im driving the vehicle it can abruptly stop and cause an accident. I fear driving this car because it not only jeopardizes my safety, my familes but the other drivers on the road. Nissa. Needs to accept liability and just take back this junk. I show the dealers these videos and pictures with the different times and mileage and problem still persists. I dunno what other options I have left. Thank you.
