2 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 06/03/2022

While in reverse the automatic braking system locked up. There was nothing behind me or in my camera visually. Then I went to pull forward, the panel lights lit up, and, crash lights front can't up and the radar front light. My car has stayed in the shop at Nissan since January 2022 to present except for 4 weeks. Nissan refuses to deem as a lemon, yet everything is pointing to what other owners have experienced with this particular car. When those brakes locked up my car is no longer stable to drive, yet Nissan is saying it's a shock on the right side. A shock doesnt go out at this early in a brand new car. Nor does all of the components mentioned. We take meticulous care of our vehicle. I have a case opened with Nissan USA consumer affairs currently. Car is still in shop.

The fuel doesn't pump correctly as it should. The fuse burnt out. The automatic braking randomly activates for no apparent reason while driving. It also doesn't activate at all. The front end of the car lifts upward like a wheelie from a stop light. There was smoking and burning smell from under the hood.

5 Service Brakes problem

Failure Date: 09/17/2019

First issue was a defective brake system. The part that compressess air to make a hydrologic had a hole. You could hear what sounded like a basketball being deflated near the brake pedal. They fixed it this was at about 25k miles. And now the persistent problem is the transmission. It makes my car jerk or run with reduced power, or sometimes more power. Its very annoying and a burden. Also the fuel oxygen intake ratio has to constantly be reset by me either switching the car to neutral while driving or by turning the engine off then turning back on 5 seconds later, then turning it off again. And turning it back on 30 seconds later, and repeating the 30 seconds on and off until the engine sounds stable. Also the Nissan dealership totally took advantage of me. And they still treat me average at best when I get my lio changes there. And always make comments about the mileage. I don't even complain to them about the car.
