2023 Nissan Pathfinder

I bought my 2023 Pathfinder FWD brand new in September, 2023. First few days I bought it it would switch to neutral or cut off while sitting at a light. It is now December and the ac/heater when on full blast reduces to mild on it own, the remote start no longer sets car temp based on outside time, the light in car doesn't come on when open doors, if key is in car and car is own it will lock by itself, the radio will play 5 seconds then turn off and go to a different screen, at times the screen will go from screen to screen on its on and will randomly switch to manual when i am stopped at drive through or backing out and putting in drive. Very frustrated with my purchase.

Stop & start fuel saving system, which automatically engages while waiting in the traffic, is malfunctioning. In the best case scenario car switches the gear to Neutral when releasing the break pedal to auto-start the engine. Another variation is shutting down the engine when attempting to drive off from the traffic lights or intersection after even a short stop. In a occurrence of this issue engine must be manually started like if it was parked. Last scenario, which happens to be the most dangerous, combines both previously mentioned behaviors and the fact that before the engine stops or gear switches to Neutral, car may roll into the intersection and stop there, potentially leaving the car in a crash course with other cars. The last scenario is especially critical on left turns with no traffic lights. If driven by less skillful drivers this leads to some very nasty situations on the road. Nissan doesn't offer a menu option to permanently disengage start & stop system. One has to always remember to turn this function off after each car-start. Finally, turning stop & start system off results in significantly higher fuel consumption.

Dear NHTSA, I would like to report a safety issue while driving this vehicle on Interstate 35E North of downtown St Paul, MN. While driving in traffic I went to move into a lane to the right allowing us to move in a less congested lane of traffic. During the move I pushed the pedal to full and the engine just shut off/cut out and stalled while in the middle of moving lanes in fast moving traffic. The vehicle jerked and slowed then the engine can back to life (fired back up) and my wife was screaming at this point that we were going to get us killed with traffic behind us moving at 60 plus mph. First my wife blamed me for this issue and I explained the vehicle just shut off under load and I was doing nothing wrong. This issue needs further attention or intervention from a higher authority than a dealer. Also, the emergency braking does not work on this vehicle going forward or backwards with all systems turned on. It has been at the deal for 7 days as of today Sept 12, 2023. This event took place on Sunday September 03, between 3:30 PM according to our tracked google map trip.

1. Loud Noise when starting the engine - Noise like a train 2. I’m driving along and my car just starts vrooming it’s stuck between gears. It cuts off and changes gear to Neutral or just cut off. Cars behind me literally almost wrecks everytime. 3. Panel on the driver side warf and came loose at within 7 days of purchse 4. Oil Light came on- frighting 5. Loud Noise from windows when driving - Loud. All of this happen within a week after (Jan/2023 ) purchase. Reported to Dealerships and Nissan Corp. I requested to return the vehicle they said NO. I stated that the vehicle is unsafe to drive. At First Dealerships said they could't duplicate the problem, after many trips to dealships they said it was the fuel pump. I have been waiting on a fuel pumps for months. The bottom line is that the vehicle is unsafe to drive and cut off unexpectly whenever and has put myself and others in harms way. As of today I am still waiting on the part for my vehicle. Nissan nor any of the dealership has provide me with transporation while I am waiting. Please Help.
