Brake and charge lights on from time to time - The dealer tested the alternator ok, but on the same day the car completely failed (no acceleration available, electrical commands gong crazy)- the car was towed to the same dealer, who finally identified failed alternator (!). Had it replaced.

US $177
15,000 mile check showed that the resistor for the driver side heated seat switch was bad. Part ordered, but not yet installed. The seat would heat, but the indicator light did not illuminate. 
16000 mi Seat heater switch installed. 
26040 mi Tire pressure warning light came on. Dealership said it was a faulty tire pressure sensor in a wheel. They did not know which wheel, so finding out would involve a complicated routine. The cost would be over $200 + Tax. I declined. 
31000 mi 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. 
3000 mi Nav was giving out wrong destination information (photos of proof were submitted). Nissan Rep told me to live with it (did not seem to really care at all about customer satisfaction)which was unacceptable. Source magically changes to IPOD (when iPod is connected) Nissan Rep said known (for a few years) and they have no solution for it and I need to wait till they get a software update (not expected any time soon based on history) 
5000 mi Again source changes to iPod and dealer finally called Nissan only to be told that this is a known issue and that they have 3 updates being worked and that there is no ETA for it and will not even give a time frame.The joke was may be never 
57040 mi

C $1500
Motor on driver seat wore down. Would not move forward or reverse.
