1 Engine Rattling And Whining Sounds problem

Failure Date: 09/11/2018

The vehicle initially would not start on 1/17/18 while parked. I called Nissan roadside and they sent a tow truck a few hours later. Vehicle was unable to be jumped. Towed to the dealership. They could not duplicate the issue. I got the vehicle back several days later and the problem occurred again. I was at work so I waited on calling for a tow and when I went back out it turned over. In March, I had the same problem and the vehicle was again stationary and could not be jumped so it was towed. The dealer told me they could not find an issue so I took the car back. On 8/18/18 I was on the interstate when I felt the car seem to lose power and heard a whining or whistling noise which I initially thought was a window slightly open. I got off the interstate and parked in the closest area I could. The vehicle would not start and I again called Nissan roadside. The dealer had the vehicle for 2-3 weeks and again returned it telling me it was ok. On 9/11/18 I went to get lunch and the vehicle stopped working in a parking lot. I took video on 9/11/18 of the problem and again had to be towed and find a ride home (1 hour from home). Now I am told the dealer added some "harness" and it should work fine so I should come pick it up. This vehicle is clearly dangerous. I was driving so I was able to handle it but if my wife or somebody else was driving I really don't know what would have happened. I have further repair orders not included in the attached documents.

2 Engine Rattling And Whining Sounds problem

Failure Date: 07/18/2018

While driving down the highway the power dropped to the car. The rpms dropped down to almost zero, the power to the radio and fan motor stopped as well. I went from 65 miles per hour to 35 miles per hour in a matter of seconds. Thankfully I was not hit by another car. The second issue is that the engine feels like it might stall upon start after sitting all day. This has happened multiple times. The third issue is that the bluetooth radio system has a whistling sound when trying to use this and be safe while driving. The fourth issue is that the interior back door pulls to close the door both pop out and cannot be pushed back into place. The vehicle has been away from me for a significant amount of time so Nissan can try and make repairs. Consumer affairs told us that simply there was no fix for the bluetooth issue and that the back door pulls was a design flaw from the manufacturer.
