Description of the problem on August 28, 2025, I had my vehicle serviced at Nissan of dearborn due to a transmission malfunction. After the service was completed, I noticed the front end was pulling to the right, as time progress I became concerned. I took the vehicle to an independent service center for a front-end alignment. During the inspection, I was informed that the control arms were loose and needed to be replaced. Responses to required questions what component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? the transmission initially malfunctioned, and later the front suspension/control arms were found to be loose after the transmission was replaced. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? loose control arms and steering misalignment significantly compromised vehicle stability, creating a risk of loss of control while driving, which could lead to an accident. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? yes, the issue with the control arms was confirmed by an independent service center during the alignment inspection. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others? the vehicle has not yet been inspected by Nissan corporate or other authorities, but it is available for inspection. Were there any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? there were no warning lamps or messages prior to the transmission malfunction. The pulling to the right began immediately after the dealership service on August 28, 2025. Safety concern I purchased this vehicle, August 22, 2024, but have not owned it long enough to expect major component failures. This situation has created a serious safety risk, and I am requesting Nissan corporate to investigate this matter urgently and provide a resolution, including repair or reimbursement.

We took our car to mclarty daniel Nissan for new tire installation and wheel alignment. During checkout, we noticed that the alignment printout shows some of the values were still out of spec (see attached photo) and the red warning note stated that this may result in tire wear, handling and safety problems. The service advisor said those are not adjustable so there is nothing they could do. I reached out to Nissan consumer affairs and they did not take responsibility either and asked me to work with the dealer. The dealer says it is a manufacturing issue and is not willing to do anything. I am so disappointed with both parties and hoping you will help with this issue so we do not have to drive an unsafe car. Thank you.

Nissan has elected to manufacture and deliver Kicks automobile without a spare tire. Nissan delivers the Kicks with a can of fix a leak spray which places most drivers in an insane usafe prediciment on our highway and roads. All vehicles sold in american must include a spare tire with jack and tools. I demand action be taken against Nissan and my complaint satisfied immediately.
The contact owns a 2020 Nissan kick. The contact stated that while their wife was driving at approximately 20-25 mph attempting to make a left turn they suddenly lost control causing the vehicle to go straight across the road instead of completing the left turn. The vehicle crashed into 2 mailboxes before it came to a stop. The right wheel bent outward causing the right fender to lodge into the door. The left wheel had turned in the opposite direction. The right axle detached from the transmission. The lower ball joint detached from the lower control arm and the sway bar had fractured the air bags did not deploy. The mailboxes were damaged. The contact received bruising to their abdominal area. No medical attention was needed. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a repair shop where the right axle, right lower control arm, and both front wheels and rims were replaced. Several sensors associated with the front of the vehicle, the bumper, the fender, the right headlight assembly right, struts, and suspension were all replaced as well. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 22,485.

I bought a brand new Kicks sport s that was delivered to me with 231 miles on it. It ran great but when driving on the interstate when a slight crosswind kicked up the vehicle steering was almost unmanageable. It was difficult keeping the vehicle on the road below the posted speed with only 5 -10 mile winds. Tire inflation was proper and everything worked great until there was even the slightest wind. I traded the car in at under 4000 miles due to this fact since it was not safe to drive and took a $10,000 loss only months after purchase and paid in full at the time of purchase. This is the biggest scam for a vehicle and should not be on the road they are dangerous and sorry but after losing almost a year's income on this vehicle I wish I had never seen one of them much less bought one. Very unsafe people will end up dying buying this vehicle. I would not put my children or grandkids in this car if there was any wind whatsoever nor would I ever ride in one with any wind ever again.
Low pressure signal always coming in saying tires are low, every month.
