Driver's front window would auto-up but retract immediately after closing. Dealer adjusted. Volume knob not working reliably - would skip numbers or reset back to 0 in some circumstances, especially if you tried to adjust volume slowly. Steering wheel controls worked fine. A-pillar tweeters not functioning as expected, balance/fade/treble/bass adjustments not working as expected. Dealer flashed NAV unit with new firmware, seems to have resolved the issue.
Battery completely drained after 1 hour of parking. Able to jump started but it took several try (Battery totally empty). I replaced the battery with a new one.

Would not pass inspection because no computer interface info. Turned out shipping battery save switch never turned "on" at delivery. Dealer fault! PS, this kept A/C from remembering last "on" setting for 2 years! Also kept lock "beep

Wouldn't start; first analysis was push button start module. Upon further time at dealer BCM had failed (the brain of the car). Had to get part from Dallas. Part, loaner car and towing on warranty thankfully, otherwise costly. Keep car??

Battery does not always charge properly resulting in dead battery.Dealer unable to locate problem.I am an Electrical/Controls engineer.I suspect issue is with software controlling charger based upon numerous observations of charging pattern.
Tire light came on, all tires including spare were with correct pressures. Thought it may be a TPS but it turned out that the TPS "system" just needed a reboot. They didnt charge me due to them initally losing my keys (they were in the mechanics shirt pocket)

Battery was leaking acid. Was told the forced gasses and acid out of battery was being vented onto the terminals. That it was the reason for the constant green corrosion every 3 days for a month. Had to buy a new battery, alternator, installation.
EDIT: turns out they lied to try to get service work money and part money out of us. That this corrosion prob is in Nissans from at leats as far bask as 2006, that they know all about it, that they charge 57 dollars for battery terminals because you cant buy them anywhere other than Nissan, that Nissan wont change the design/slightly back terminals out of the battery venting process because they actually WANT the car to break down so that we will bring it to them for repairs. Or at minimum, buy the battery terminal ends from them at 27 bucks each, even though battery terminal ends for almost every car in the world cost 3 dollars. Bring it to them? Last time it did this they said it needed alternator, starter, battery, new battery cables, all kinds of crap, for about 7 to 800 dollars total. Turns out you only actually need the ends that tighten down to your battery posts, which are 3 bucks at walmart(if that) and which work on almost every car in world, and would work on Nissans vehicles except they made theirs where a simple battery post terminal in their cars wont quite do right. So again, either take it to them for overpriced work and parts you dont need, or, do it yourself after getting the Nissan oem ends that are like 8000% more than any battery terminal should ever cost. Then, after about a year or 2, be ready to do it again(at least you will have experience at doing by then). Have a NICE DAY!

Her it goes again. Remember, I have only ever used the Nissan factory parts. So just as the other battery post corrded last year, this one did now. It has something to do with those Nissan factory top posts parts!

Alternator just stopped working. Froze the pulley in it and burned off the drive belt! Nissan wants 590 bucks for one and then it goes up to over a thousand dollars to replace it. Without another drive belt! I hate this Nissan Junk, I mean Juke!!
