I bought this vehicle in 2018 since then I've had this vehicle in the shop multiple times . My differential was replaced a few months after I bought the vehicle along with my fan blades . This is again an issue for my car this just having gotten it back because I had to do a complete engine replacement in my now only 4 year old car . My car was out of warranty from Nissan based on any of the mileage . I took it to one dealership who claimed that I had metal in my oil said nothing of smudge in the oil mind you I had just had my oil changed again not told anything . I was driving home from work in March 2020 when my low oil pressure light kicked on which didn't make sense as I had just had an oil change a few weeks prior and kept up on my oil changes . The engine that is in my vehicle is apparently Nissans newest engine and a very expensive one at that . I requested an exception from Nissan in regards to the engine so I did as they said and took it to another dealership this time the Nissan dealership . They claimed my engine was a total loss and it was due to lack of maintenance there was no way this was the case in my situation . Nissan informed me that maybe the previous own r had done it and basically there was nothing that could be done . So I got online and started looking around to find that other people had reported the same thing . My vehicle is primarily all highway driving I paid over 7k for a new engine to be put in my car from a local shop . The engine had to be taken out twice because the inside pistons were sticking this was on the new engines . Once my engine was finally installed and my 02 sensors replaced as well a week later my car was throwing a misfire for low oil pressure light. This clearly is a fault with Nissans design of this engine . I have spent thousands on a newer vehicle with no help from Nissan and no fault of my own .
Cvt transmission shows significant hesitation when increasing speed on a hilly road and fuel immobilizer makes engine shows sign of idoling which feels like engine is about to stall.
