Warning Problems of Nissan Kicks

On August 5, 2026, an authorized Nissan dealer performed safety recall pma66 / NHTSA 26v-331 on my 2025 Nissan Kicks sr. The vehicle’s combination meter/instrument cluster had been functioning normally before the recall. During the recall software update, the programming failed and the original combination meter became unrecoverable. After consultation with Nissan techline, Nissan authorized replacement of the combination meter. The replacement meter was installed and the vehicle was returned on August 11, 2026. Immediately afterward, several new problems were discovered that did not exist before the recall repair: vehicle speed is displayed in km/h instead of mph even though u. S. /miles units are selected; the tpms/tire-pressure information screen is missing; the lane-assistance/driver-assistance information screen is missing; and traffic sign recognition no longer displays detected speed-limit signs. Additional affected functions may not yet have been identified. These conditions were reported to the dealer and Nissan consumer affairs. Nissan consumer affairs advised on August 21 that the recall/remedy is under review, that there is currently no approved repair procedure and no estimated timeline, and that it could neither confirm nor deny whether the vehicle is safe to drive. The vehicle is available for inspection. No crash, fire, injury, or death has occurred. I am reporting this because a safety-recall repair failed, the Nissan-authorized replacement introduced new incorrect or missing safety-related display functions, and Nissan currently has no approved procedure to restore the vehicle.

All of my safety light came on dash. Abs, front end collision, back up, skid, lane assist as well as abs. Took car in paid 6,000 for the lane assist as well as abs car worked for only one month before it would not back up nor would it accelerate after it finally got to drive. All lights came back on and now it’s another 2100 for throttle body and maf and sonar control unit. Car is very unstable and un-drivable.

The ldw sensors do not function and Nissan tells me it would cost 2300. 00 to fix the problem. After researching, I find that this is a common, known problem with this make, model and year of vehicle. I feel that nhsta should get Nissan to issue a recall.

Lane departure randomly deploys also the cars collision stop happens often even without being near objects and/or people.

The collision warning lights randomly come on, the vehicle loses power suddenly. If I was trying to merge or go on the interstate and suddenly my vehicle loses power while thinking I have enough distance and can accelerate safely but my vehicle just loses power other drivers wouldn’t be able to stop while I was pretty much stuck.

Hello, this has happened multiple times within a year & a half of having the vehicle (bought in Jan 2023) where the front collision warning will randomly go off during anytime of the day, even at night. I have also had all the side collision warnings just stay yellow in the screen while driving. Just recently when I was driving in the mountains of GA, I had everything go off & the "forward driving aids temporarily disabled. ".

The sensor lights constantly come on and then the engine light comes on. When I got the engine light read, it says I need a new mass airflow sensor. I have replaced this sensor 3 times now and the air filter, the same issue is occurring over and over again. Every sensor light comes on and the car starts to decelerate while you are driving making it difficult to press the gas or accelerate to a higher speed.

On June 16, 2022 I suffered a medical emergency and the vehicle drifted out of the lane into the guardrail to the right. No lane departure warning sounded or alerted me. The vehicle grazed the guardrail on the passenger side then veered left across the other 3 lanes with no warnings or alerts sounding. The seatbelt did not lock up during the guardrail incident or upon impact of the vehicle into a hillside where the vehicle eventually came to a stop. When I fully came to, I saw the gearshift broken off and I had a broken nose. Several other items from the dash were also broken off from my face hitting them. I suffered multiple injuries, one of which required surgery. I have a door panel shaped hematoma on my left hip, however all the medical records state "restrained driver" and can be provided upon request along with any other reports. The vehicle is currently at monroe's collision center awaiting a determination on the extent of the damage. Several, if not all, airbags deployed. I had my car for 17 days. The windows are currently down and the vehicle will not start.

The driver side (left) camera seems to be partially out (gets a faint signal in sunlight, fully out at night) and it is unclear how well the saftey features work as a result.
