Transmission failure. We had been telling the Elk Grove Nissan dealer we were getting surging while still under dealer warranty for 15,000 miles!! but they stalled ( we are not happy with them!!). We had fortunately purchased a 100,000. drive trail extended warranty. My wife broke down in the mountains of Oregon! The insurance company fought with the dealer in Oregon but the new dealer persisted and we paid for fluids only...not cheap. Very fast repair! Thank you Lithia Nissan of Medford. The repair has held for several thousand miles since....we travel back and forth to Oregon every other week. PS buy AAA Premium Towing package super!! Long story but they hauled our car for hundreds of miles no charge!

Only Driver Side Front Window would barely go up or down during temps of -25 F at toll booth. All other windows worked fine. Dealer treated all windows with a special graphite lubricant needed in our Alaska Arctic climate. Problem solved! 
Jan 2012 Car overheated in -45F, 125 miles on remote hiway. Car shut down with Service Engine. Took 5 hours returning to dealer; found car was protected to only -15F, and not -38f per Nissan specs. Added special gel to radiator and reset CVT cooler!

For two and a half years I have been driving with a faulty tire pressure sensor/light. I declined to pay the dealer over $200 to repair it. 1500Km ago I disconnected my battery. Problem solved! Computer reset? Now, into my 7th year with this car. the TPS continues to come on when it gets cold and turns off when it gets warm. The design of this TPS system is poor. You never know which sensor is faulty, you must check each one, so who cares, I will live with it and check my pressures myself. It's just a money making scheme for Nissan.
