What owners say

Verbatim reports filed with the United States safety regulator (NHTSA) by owners of this exact model year. Public record.

The Vehicle has developed this problem: the passenger-side door will not lock or unlock using either the key fob or the interior power-lock switch and has to be operated manually.

I have a case number open with the Nissan Consumer Affairs. The case number is…
Passenger side door lock will not respond via iKey or button inside of car rear automatic trunk hatch will let down and close on its own with someone bending over to remove or put something in the trunk also rear back middle seat seatbelt locked while being filled extended and has permanently stayed locked and will not wind back in.
Passenger side door lock became unresponsive to the vehicle's key FOB, and any attempt to open the passenger side door triggered the alarm system. Shortly afterward, the horn began sounding at random while the vehicle was started and being driven.
