2009 Nissan Cube

Defect. Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain 2009-2010 Cube vehicles. The driver’s air bag inflator may rupture or detach from the steering wheel during air bag deployment.

Risk. A driver's air bag that ruptures or detaches can strike the driver or other occupants, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.

Remedy. Dealers will inspect the front air bag inflator serial number, and replace the inflator as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 9, 2026. Owners may contact Nissan's customer service at 800-647-7261. Nissan's number for this recall is R26A1. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning April 14, 2026.

Defect. NISSAN IS RECALLING MODEL YEAR 2009-2010 NISSAN CUBE VEHICLES MANUFACTURED FROM JANUARY 30, 2009 THROUGH JULY 30, 2010. THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 301, "FUEL SYSTEM INTEGRITY." WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ROTATED FOLLOWING A REAR MOVING BARRIER CRASH TEST AS REQUIRED, THE AMOUNT OF FUEL LEAKAGE EXCEEDED THE ALLOWABLE LIMITS.

Risk. FUEL LEAKAGE, IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE, COULD RESULT IN A FIRE.

Remedy. DEALERS WILL DEVELOP A SPECIAL PROTECTOR AND ATTACH IT TO THE GASOLINE RECIRCULATION TUBE AT THE LOCATION OF THE FILLER NECK CONNECTOR. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON SEPTEMBER 13, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261.

Defect. NISSAN IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2008-2010 VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD IN OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE STATES OF CONNECTICUT, DELAWARE, IOWA, ILLINOIS, INDIANA, MASSACHUSETTS, MAINE, MARYLAND, MICHIGAN, MINNESOTA, MISSOURI, NEW HAMPSHIRE, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, OHIO, PENNSYLVANIA, RHODE ISLAND, VERMONT, WASHINGTON D.C., WEST VIRGINIA AND WISCONSIN. THE MATERIAL IN THE NUT USED TO SECURE THE SENSOR-TRANSMITTER OF THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) MAY CORRODE AND POTENTIALLY CRACK IN AREAS WITH HEAVY CONCENTRATIONS OF ROAD SALT. IF THIS OCCURS, THE NUT MAY COME OUT OF THE SENSOR-TRANSMITTER AND THE TPMS LAMP WILL ILLUMINATE.

Risk. IF THE TPMS LAMP IS DISREGARDED AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO BE DRIVEN IN THIS CONDITION, THE TIRE WILL QUICKLY LOSE AIR PRESSURE AT A CONSISTENT RATE RESULTING IN A FLAT TIRE INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy. THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE TPMS NUT WITH A NEW, MORE ROBUST NUT. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN ON OR BEFORE NOVEMBER 9, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT NISSAN AT 1-800-647-7261 AND INFINITI AT 1-800-662-6200.

Recall issued. Kelly Nissan of 275 Broadway, Lynnfield MA 01940 told me to check back in a month to see if the parts were then available then a month later told me the parts were no longer being manufactured and were unavailable.

The contact owns a 2009 Nissan Cube. The contact received notification of NTHSA Campaign Number: 26V230000 (Air Bags); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the dealer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.

The contact owns a 2009 Nissan Cube. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V230000 (Air Bags). The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the contact was informed that parts were on back order. The contact was later informed that the parts were not available and were no longer manufactured. The manufacturer was contacted, and a case was filed. The contact had not experienced a failure.

The TPMS light keeps flashing off and on and all my tires are the pressure they're supposed to be

2009 Cube would not start. Steering wheel locked prevented me from starting the car. Called AAA and they tried to jump start and still would not start. AAA towed my car to Capital Nissan in San Jose and they confirmed it was the Steering Lock Unit. Replaced and charged me 1363.46. After researching online there was a recall (not my Cube and I don't know why) back in 2011. I also found that "recalls never expired". I feel because this incident happened at a later time the Steering Lock Unit became defective. I've noticed the warning light on my dashboard for awhile but it was off and on and have been taking my car for maintenance over the years at Premier Nissan (now called Capitol Nissan in San Jose) and thought maybe the tech would find the problem. I feel because it was defective and recalled I shouldn't have to pay for parts and labor. Also on my Invoice they wrote down the mileage as 140000 and that is not true. My Cube has 138000.

Many complaints about the nissian cube... the battery are good and even put new batteries in the key fob.. the car isn't registering it and steering wheel is locked bc is a security feature.. many complaints online for these.. is this a recall yet?

Started my car at 9. Went to start my car at 10. Wouldn’t start. The escl has failed.

The contact owns a 2009 Nissan Cube. The contact stated that the horn failed to operate as needed while driving at various speeds. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where he was informed that the clockspring was defective and needed to be replaced. The contact was also informed that if the clockspring was not replaced, the air bags may not deploy in the event of a crash. The manufacturer informed him that there were no recalls on the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 142,000.

THE BACK DOOR LATCH/LOCK DOESN'T WORK. IT PERMANENTLY LOCKED AND CAN'T BE UNLOCKED WITH KEY OR ELECTRONIC KEY FOB. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND LOCKED IN MY APARTMENT DESIGNATED SPACE. WHEN I TRIED TO OPEN THE TRUNK, IT WOULDN'T UNLOCK. MY RESEARCH ON THE CUBE OWNER'S BLOG INDICATED SEVERAL OTHERS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY HAD ESTIMATES FROM DEALERS OF SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS TO REPAIR THE LOCK. NISSAN DEALERS ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. IT REQUIRES REPLACING THE ENTIRE LOCKING MECHANISM. THERE ARE A FEW INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS ON LINE OF HOW TO REPAIR THE LOCK. IT REQUIRES REMOVING BACK DOOR INSIDE OF VEHICLE.

ON 07/20/2020 TRANSMISSION BEGAN SLIPPING. VEHICLE VIBRATES AND SHUTTERS IN MOTION. LACK OF POWER. AT 124,000 MILES. UNABLE TO GET TO 50 MPH. VEHICLE ALSO VIBRATES WHEN STATIONARY.

TIRE VALVE STEM LEAKING AIR, TIRE GOING FLAT ON 2009 NISSAN CUBE. I SEE THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE BEFORE.

MY 2009 NISSAN CUBE HAD A RECALL FOR THE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ELECTRICAL STEERING COLUMN LOCK (ESCL). IT WENT OUT IN JANUARY 2020 AND THE NISSAN DEALER WANTS 832.00 TO REPAIR WHAT IS A NISSAN MANUFACTURING DEFECT. INVESTIGATING THIS IT WAS FOUND THAT IN JANUARY 2012, JUST BEFORE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED FROM THE NISSAN DEALER, THE ESCL RECALL WAS FIXED AT THE MURFREESBORO DEALERSHIP. AS I WASNT THE OWNER AT THE TIME I DO NOT HAVE PAPERWORK TO SHOW THIS, ONLY THE WORD FROM THE DEALER. THE ESCL IS OBVIOUSLY STILL A PROBLEM BUT THE DEALERSHIP SAID SINCE IT WAS FIXED ONCE THAT MET THE RECALL CRITERIA AND I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE MANUFACTURERS DEFECTIVE ESCL. THE RED LIGHT WITH THE KEY CAME ON WHEN IT WAS PARKED AT A STORE AND WOULDN'T MOVE SO IT WAS TOWED TO THE NISSAN DEALER. THEY HAVE STATED THE PART IS 579.93 AND THE LABOR WILL BE 312.50. NISSAN CONSUMER HOTLINE WAS CONTACTED AND THEY SAID THAT IT WAS REPAIRED BUT WOULDN'T GIVE ME A DATE/PLACE SO I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM TO GET THIS INFORMATION. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO STATED IT WAS DONE IN JANUARY 2012 WHEN IT WAS IN THEIR POSSESSION TO SELL ON THE LOT. SINCE IT IS A DOCUMENTED MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY AND THE DEALERSHIP SUPPOSEDLY DID THE WORK WHILE THE CAR WAS FOR SALE ON THEIR LOT (MEANING WE HAVE TO TRUST THEY ACTUALLY DID THE EXPENSIVE REPAIR), WHEN THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS WHY IS IT NOT BEING COVERED? THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM THROUGHOUT THE INTERNET OF NISSAN 2009 CUBE OWNERS WHO TO T

1) CHECK AIR BAG LIGHT WAS FLASHING A MONTH AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND IT WAS REPAIRED. THE LIGHT IS BACK ON ALMOST A YEAR LATER AND HAS CONTINUED TO FLASH ON AND OFF. 2) TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CONTINUES TO GO ON AND OFF AND I REPLACED AND ALIGNED MY TIRES AND STILL IT CONTINUES. 3) WHEN PUTTING GAS IN MY TANK THE GAUGE IS NEVER ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP AND YET THE PUMP WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO INPUT MORE GAS. ALSO THE GAS IS NOT LASTING THE AMOUNT OF MILE IT SHOULD, AND THE READING DOES NOT SEEM ACCURATE.

THE ANTITHEFT LOCK MALFUNCTIONED. NOW THE CAR WONT START.

VEHICLE STOPPED WHILE IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY. TRANSMISSION WENT COMPLETELY OUT.

THE BRAKE PEDAL HAS PROGRESSIVELY GONE LOWER TO THE FLOOR WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES. THERE IS A SPONGY FEEL AND ONLY ENGAGES FULLY AT THE LAST MOMENT ALMOST TO THE FLOOR. STOPPING IS AT THE LAST MOMENT, THE BRAKE PEDAL HAS TO BE PUMPED TO ENGAGE THE BRAKES. THE ROTORS, BRAKE PADS AND SHOES AND NEW BRAKE FLUID HAS BEEN REPLACED BUT THE BRAKE ISSUE REMAINS.

THE CUBE WILL FREQUENTLY STOP WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. IT IS POSSIBLE TO PUMP THE ACCELERATOR AT THE MOMENT THIS HAPPENS AND SOMETIMES THE ENGINE WILL CATCH AND CARRY ON. IF THIS DOES NOT WORK, THE CAR MUST BE SHUT DOWN FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE ATTEMPTING A RESTART. UNFORTUNATELY ONCE THIS SITUATION HAPPENS, IT WILL VERY LIKELY RECUR SOON AFTER. IT IS MY OBSERVATION THAT THIS HAPPENS MOST OFTEN WHEN THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE IS QUITE HIGH (75 F AND ABOVE). ON COOL DAYS THE SITUATION IS NOT LIKELY TO HAPPEN UNLESS THE CAR IS DRIVEN OVER AN HOUR IN DURATION. AS ANOTHER OBSERVATION IT IS MORE LIKELY TO HAPPEN IF THE GAS GAUGE IS LESS THAN FULL. I TRIED TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM TWICE FOR MAUS NISSAN BUT IT DID NOT OCCUR. THERE WAS A ENGINE SERVICE LIGHT ON DURING BOTH THOSE ATTEMPTS INDICATING A CATALYTIC CONVERTER ERROR. SINCE THAT TIME (EARLY 2018) THE PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES WITHOUT ANY SERVICE ENGINE WARNING BEING ON. THE FIRST TIME THE PROBLEM OCCURRED, I TOOK THE CAR INTO NISSAN IN CHATTANOOGA. THEY SAID THERE WAS A LITTLE TOO MUCH TRANSMISSION FLUID. THEY REMOVED SOME AND I CONTINUED ON THE FLORIDA. WITHIN 10 MINUTES THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN. WHILE IN FLORIDA, WE LIMIT DRIVING TO EARLY MORNINGS AND EVENINGS FOR LESS THAN 30 MINUTES AND WE MAINTAIN THE GAS TANK ON FULL.

REAR HATCH DOOR LOCK DOES NOT UNLOCK THE DOOR. THE LOCK HAS WORKED AND THEN IT QUITS WORKING. IN AN EMERGENCY A PERSON WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO EXIT THROUGH THE HATCH DOOR. ACCORDING TO THE INTERNET THIS IS A FREQUENT OCCURRENCE IN THE EARLY MODELS.

SAME ISSUE AS THE OWNERS IN THIS THREAD WITH REGARDS TO THE ESCL. WENT TO START MY CAR AS A SNOW STORM WAS STARTING AND NO LUCK. MY LOCAL NISSAN DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE ESCL AND THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE CUBE. HOWEVER, MY PARTNER OWNS A 2009 ALTIMA AND HAD THE SAME ISSUE A MONTH AGO AND GOT IT FIXED AT NO COST. THE FACT THAT NUMEROUS 09 CUBE OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE AROUND THE SAME TIME WITH NO OFFER TO RECALL OR REIMBURSE US IS RIDICULOUS. I HAVE EMAILED CUSTOMER SERVICE WITH SCREEN SHOTS OF EVERYONE'S COMPLAINT AND REACHED OUT TO NISSAN VIA TWITTER. THEY HAVE RESPONDED AND ARE LOOKING INTO THE ISSUE NOW. FINGERS CROSSED THEY DO SOMETHING FOR US

VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A DOWNTOWN PARKING GARAGE WHILE MY WIFE WAS AT WORK. SHE CAME OUT OF WORK AFTER DARK, WITH NO ACCESS BACK INTO A BANKING BUILDING, AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START. AFTER CALLING ME AND TRYING A COUPLE THINGS, WE CALLED OUR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND I GOT IN MY CAR TO DRIVE 45 MINUTES THERE. MY WIFE HAD TO WAIT IN THE LOCKED CAR, ALONE, UNTIL MYSELF AND THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED. THIS WAS AN UNSAFE SITUATION. WE HAD IT TOWED TO A DEALER AND FOUND OUT THE NEXT DAY THAT THE ESCL (ELECTRONIC STEERING CONTROL LOCK) HAD FAILED, WHICH PREVENTS THE CAR FROM STARTING. AFTER SPENDING $650 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED, I DID SOME INVESTIGATION AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM NOT JUST ON THE NISSAN CUBE, BUT WITH ALTIMAS, MAXIMAS, 370Z AND INFINITI VEHICLES. AFTER OUR REPAIR, NISSAN HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE PART, BUT WE WERE PAST THE MILEAGE AND THEY WOULD NOT REIMBURSE US. THEY STILL HAVE AN OPEN SERVICE CAMPAIGN FOR THE ALTIMAS AND MAXIMAS, BUT NOT THE CUBE OR OTHER AFFECTED VEHICLES. THIS IS A SEVER SAFETY CONCERN. MY WIFE WAS ALONE IN A DARK PARKING RAMP FOR ALMOST AN HOUR IN THE INNER CITY. IMAGINE IF THIS HAPPENED TO OTHERS AFTER NISSAN HAS ACKNOWLEDGED IT AS A PROBLEM, AND SOMEONE GETS MUGGED OR KILLED WHILE IN AN UNSAFE AREA AND CANT GET THEIR CAR STARTED. NISSAN SHOULD ISSUE A 100% RECALL ON ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES AND PROVIDE REIMBURSEMENT FOR OWNERS WHO HAVE ALREADY PAID FOR THE REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN CUBE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD DIFFICULTY STARTING. THE CONTACT HAD TO LOCK THE STEERING WHEEL IN ORDER FOR THE ENGINE TO START. IN ADDITION, THE KEY FOB HAD TO BE VISIBLE TO START THE VEHICLE PROPERLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE REMAINED PARKED AT THE CONTACT'S HOME. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFUSED TO ASSIST THE CONTACT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE STEERING LOCK HAS FAILED, AND THE START BUTTON NO LONGER WORKS ON THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE "PLUNGER" HAS FAILED WITHIN THE STEERING ELECTRICAL BOX.

FAULTY TRANSMISSION, DISCOLORED, BROKEN. NEEDS TO EITHER BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED. AT 111,000 MILES MY CAR HAD TROUBLE STOPPING. I ALMOST GOT HIT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. HAVE REALLY BAD WHIPLASH AND CONTINUE TO SEE A CHIROPRACTOR EVERY 2 WEEKS. I HAVE TAKEN MY NISSAN CUBE 2009 111,000 MILES TO 3 MECHANICS. (NISSAN, MEINEKE AND PISMO AUTOMOTIVE) HAVE DOCUMENTATION AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. INCLUDING NISSAN WHEN THEY SAID THAT IT WOULD BE $260 TO DIAGNOSE I WENT TO 2 OTHER MECHANICS SHORTLY AFTER) OF WHICH, I COULDN'T GET A CLEAR ANSWER AS TO WHICH WAS GOING ON WITH MY ENGINE. THE TRANSMISSION CVT WHICH I NOW KNOW IT IS, BECAUSE OF YOUR WEBSITE, IT WAS MAKING ALL KINDS OF WEIRD NOISES (ENGINE REVVING). JERKING TRANSMISSION, SHIFTING (SLAMMING AND HARSH WHILE BRAKING) HAVE TRANSMISSION LEAKS REPORTED AND REPORTED THAT CVT WAS NOT ONLY LEAKING, BUT BLACKENED IN COLOR. (SAW IT YESTERDAY WHILE MECHANIC SHOWED ME INSIDE OF ENGINE AND CVT. WHEN I PRESS ON GAS PEDAL IT WOULD DROP OUT OF POWER AND HESITATES ON ACCELERATION. TAKING THE LEMON TO NISSAN AGAIN. IT'S CURRENTLY AT PISMO AUTOMOTIVE, AS SOON AS MECHANIC PUTS THE ENGINE BACK TOGETHER I WILL BE TOWING MY CAR (NISSAN SAID I HAD TO TOW IT TO THEM) BUT EVEN THEN, GETTING THE RUN AROUND FROM NISSAN SAYING I HAVE TO PAY BUT IT WILL BE COVERED. *DT CONSUMER STATED BRAKES DID NOT FULLY STOP. UPDATED 12/06/18*JB

THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE ELECTRICAL STEERING CONTROL LOCK (ESCL) THAT PREVENTS THE CAR FROM BEING ABLE TO START.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN CUBE. WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO JERK AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO METRO NISSAN OF MONTCLAIR (LOCATED AT 9440 AUTOPLEX ST, MONTCLAIR, CA 91763), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 132,000.

TAKATA RECALL: CAR WAS FINE WHEN I PARKED IT WHEN I GOT UP THE NEXT MORNING, I CRANK IT PUT IT IN REVERSE AND THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE. TOWED THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY ARE SAYING IT'S THE CLUTCH IN THE TRANSMISSION. I CAN'T SEE HOW IT GO OUT OVERNIGHT SITTING CART, I'VE OWN THE CAR 1 YEAR AND 1 MONTH JUST PASSED THE WARRANTY. CARMAX MAXCARE WILL NOT COVER IT SAYS IT IS A MAINTENANCE ISSUE. I HAVE NO PICTURES OR DOCUMENTATION AT THE MOMENT THE CAR IS AT A NISSAN DEALER JUST SITTING

RECENTLY MY NISSAN CUBE CAME UP WITH AN ERROR CODE INDICATING A STEP MOTOR MALFUNCTION. THIS IS A COMPONENT OF THE CVT TRANSMISSION THAT TELLS THE TRANSMISSION HOW TO OPERATE. WITHOUT THIS CRITICAL COMPONENT THE VEHICLE DOES NOT BEHAVE PROPERLY. I HAVE INVOLVED IN A NUMBER OF SITUATIONS WHERE THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY STOP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR NOT ACCELERATE AFTER REDUCING SPEED CAUSING AN EXTREME HAZARD. NISSAN IS AWARE OF THESE FAILING TRANSMISSIONS AND DID IN FACT INCREASE THE WARRANTY COVERAGE AT ONE POINT. THESE ARE AN EXTREME DANGER ON THE ROAD!!!

BACK DOOR HANDLE FAILS TO UNLOCK NO KEY ACCESS TO OPEN OR FIX...KNOWN PROBLEM FOR THESE CARS. TPS SENSORS MALFUNCTION

THE STEERING LOCK COLUMN UNIT IN MY 2009 NISSAN CUBE FAILED, DISABLING THE CAR FROM STARTING, AND PUTTING ME AT RISK AS I WAS STUCK IN A LOCATION AWAY FROM MY HOME, AND UNABLE TO START MY CAR. MY CAR WAS PARKED ON A CITY STREET. I COULD UNLOCK AND LOCK THE VEHICLE, BUT I COULD NOT START THE CAR USING MY INTELLIGENT KEY. IT WAS TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP IN NEWPORT, RI WHERE I AM BEING CHARGED $814.00 IN PARTS AND LABOR TO REPLACE A PART THAT NISSAN HAS ACKNOWLEDGED IS FAULTY NOT ONLY IN THE CUBE, BUT ALSO IN THE ALTIMA. WHEN I CALLED NISSAN CONSUMER AFFAIRS, THEY SAID THERE IS NO CURRENT RECALL CAMPAIGN AND DUE TO THE AGE OF THE CAR THERE WAS NOTHING THEY WILL DO. CONSUMER AFFAIRS CASE NUMBER IS 31941337.

DRIVER SIDE POWER WINDOW WILL SHATTER IF LEFT DOWN PARTLY WHEN YOU OPEN THE DOOR. I WAS PARKED AND THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE.

TAKATA RECALL. MY CUBE WILL NOT GO ANYWHERE, I PUT IT IN DRIVE PUSH GAS AND CAR WILL NOT ROLL. IT WON'T DRIVE IN ANY OF GEARS. VEHICAL DROVE MY FAMILY LAST NITE, WE WENT ON A TRIP, GOT TO DESTINATION WENT TO BED , WOKE UP TO LEAVE AND CAR WILL NOT GO ANYWHERE . STARTED THE ENGINE AND PUT CAR INTO DRIVE PUSHED ACCELERATOR AND CAR WILL NOT ROLL. WE ARE STUCK IN YOSEMITE 150 MILES FROM HOME.

THE CAR HAS A TRANSMISSION FAILURE IF I DID FULL STOP AND TRY TO MOVE THE CAR WILL TAKE ABOUT 10 SECONDS TO MOVE, I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID BECAUSE THE CAR IS REBUILT TITLE THEY WON'T FIX BUT THE TRANSMISSION IS FACTORY DEFICIT AND CALLED THE CUNSOMER AFFAIR AND WILL NOT HELP ME. IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IT EVEN IF YOU TAKING A LEFT TURN IN MAY STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OTHER ROAD IT WAS IN MURFREESBORO TN AND MY JOB IS LIKE AN HOUR AWAY FROM HOME

ENGINE WILL NOT START AFTER TURNING OFF. CAR CANNOT BE MOVED BECAUSE SHIFTER WILL NOT COME OUT OF PARK AND VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE. STEERING COLUMN;

TIRE WILL NOT HOLD AIR

CAR WOULD NOT START. ELECTRONIC STEERING COLUMN LOCK.

INNER FENDER FELL OFF IN PARKING LOT AND WAS RUN OVER. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN DEVASTING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND COULD HAVE BEEN A HAZARD FOR OTHER DRIVERS. ALSO THE BOTTOM COVER CAME LOOSE AND WAS DRAGGING ON THE GROUND.

CLUNK NOISE WHILE MAKING TURN

I COULD NOT PUSH START WITH MY KEYS IN MY POCKET LIKE I USED TO. I DO NOT HAVE THE CAR SO I WAS UNABLE TO TAKE A PICTURE IT IS BEING FIX I HOPE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN CUBE. WHILE PARKED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL LOCK FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 150,000.

SIMILAR TO NHTSA ID NUMBER:10717816 AND OTHER COMPLAINTS SEEN ONLINE. EXHAUST SYSTEM COMING APART AT THE FLANGE HEAT FROM THE BROKEN EXHAUST HAD MELTED THE BACK BUMPER ALSO, THE HEAT SHIELD SEPARATING THE EXHAUST FROM THE FUEL TANK APPEARS TO NOT COVER THE AREA OF THE COMMON SEPARATION. NISSAN DEALER SAW THIS OCCUR ON MY CAR, DID NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY OF THEIR FAULTY FLANGE OR CARBURETOR. IT WAS IN WARRANTY AT THAT TIME AND THEY SHOULD HAVE FIXED IT. VERY DISHONORABLE PRACTICE TO HAVE A FAULTY FLANGE CREATE ISSUES SIGNALING CARBURETOR REPLACEMENT AND CAR BUMPER MELTED AS A RESULT FROM IT. I BELIEVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY SHOULD TAKE PLACE TO FIX THIS POTENTIAL ROAD OF CUBE CATCHING FIRE HAZARD, ALTHOUGH IT IS ONLY PLASTIC.

CAR WILL NOT START. SITTING ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET. ELECTRONIC STEERING CONTROL LOCK DEFECT.

WAS DRIVING HOME WITH MY HUSBAND FROM THE GROCERY STORE. PULLED ONTO HIGHWAY AND CAR STOPPED ACCELERATING. PULLED OVER AND CAR WOULD REV UP BUT NOT GO IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. CAR WAS TOWED BACK HOME AND BEING TRADED IN. IT'S 1,000 MILES OVER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY SHOULD RECALL THESE KNOWING THE CVT IS BAD. *TR

THE STEERING LOCK COLUMN IN MY 2009 NISSAN CUBE FAILED, DISABLING THE CAR FROM STARTING, AND PUTTING ME IN A SAFETY RISK AS I WAS STUCK IN A LOCATION AWAY FROM MY HOME, AND UNABLE TO START MY VEHICLE. IT WAS NOT A BATTERY ISSUE- THE LIGHTS WORKED, I COULD UNLOCK AND LOCK THE VEHICLE, BUT I COULD NOT START THE CAR USING MY INTELLIGENT KEY. IT WAS TOWED TO A NISSAN DEALERSHIP WHERE I AM BEING CHARGED NEARLY $1,000 IN PARTS AND LABOR TO REPLACE A PART THAT NISSAN HAS ACKNOWLEDGED IS FAULTY. DESPITE AN EXPIRED EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT WAS PLACED ON THAT PART, NISSAN HAS NO RECALL ON THE PART AND OWNERS EVERYWHERE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE.

I AM THE 2ND OWNER OF THIS CAR. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE APRIL OF 2016. THE ONLY LIGHT THAT HAS BEEN ON HAS BEEN THE TPM LIGHT. ON JULY 3RD,2016 , I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY CHILDREN WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY STALLED. IT COMPLETELY STOPPED DRIVING NO MATTER HOW HARD I WOULD PUSH ON THE GAS. WHEN I HAD TO VEHICLE INSPECTED, IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION THAT HAD FAILED. ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP, THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRENTY ON THIS CVT TRANSMISSION BECAUSE OF PROBLEMS IT WAS HAVING. THERE WAS NO LIGHT ON OR ANYTHING TO SHOW THAT THERE HAD BEEN AN ISSUE WITH THIS TRANSMISSION, IT JUST SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING AS I WAS DRIVING. I CONTACTED NISSAN DIRECTLY AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. I FEEL THIS IS UNSAFE BECAUSE PEOPLE DO DRIVE WITH THEIR CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A BAD COLLISION ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN IT SUDDENLY JUST STOPPED. IN THE SAME INCIDENT, THE BACK DOOR SUDDENLY WILL NOT OPEN.

THE ELECTRONIC STEERING CONTROL LOCK MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING ME TO BE UNABLE TO START MY VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY AT THE TIME. THERE WERE NO MOVEMENTS OR SOUNDS COMING FROM THE CAR WHEN I TRIED TO START IT. ONLY THE SECURITY INDICATOR LIGHT AND THE KEY LIGHT WERE ON IN THE DASH. NO RESPONSE FROM THE CAR WHEN WE ATTEMPTED TO JUMPSTART IT. THIS ESSENTIALLY LEFT ME COMPLETELY STRANDED AND WITH LIVING OUT IN THE COUNTRY WAS VERY DIFFICULT AND EXPENSIVE TO GET THE VEHICLE TOWED INTO THE NISSAN DEALERSHIP. I DID RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT LOTS OF OTHER 2009 CUBE OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND JUST LIKE ME MANY HAVE PREVIOUSLY HAD THEIRS "FIXED" ONLY TO HAVE THE PART MALFUNCTION AGAIN AND HAVE TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF POCKET. THIS IS NO CHEAP FIX AND I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO SPEND MONEY I CAN'T AFFORD TO SPEND IN ORDER TO HAVE A WORKING VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND TAKEN CARE OF BY NISSAN AS IT COULD LEAD TO SOME REALLY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. I AM ALMOST ALWAYS OUT CAMPING IN RELATIVELY UNPOPULATED WILDERNESS AREAS, TYPICALLY WITHOUT CELL SERVICE AND IF THIS HAD HAPPENED THEN I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I WOULD HAVE DONE. I REALLY HOPE THEY STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND ISSUE A RECALL/REFUND FOR THE PROBLEM JUST LIKE THEY DID FOR THE ALTIMA ISSUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 NISSAN CUBE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO UTILIZE THE REAR HATCH, THE DOOR WOULD NOT UNLOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

ESCL FAILED FOR 3RD TIME. DROVE THE CAR, PARKED IT FOR 15 MINUTES AND IT WOULD NOT START WHEN I CAME BACK OUT. THIS WILL MAKE THE 3RD ESCL INSTALLED IN MY CAR BY NISSAN SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW IN JULY 2009. THE 2ND ESCL WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY ON NOVEMBER 2011 AT 22912 MILES. THE 3RD ONE COST ME $892.09 PLUS $140 TO TOW IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT TOOK NISSAN WARRANTY 2 WEEKS TO TELL ME THAT THEY WOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR THE COST OF THE PART ONLY. DEALING WITH THE WARRANTY PEOPLE WAS MORE FRUSTRATING THAN GOING TO THE DMV. I WOULD RATHER HAVE A ROOT CANAL WITHOUT NOVACAINE THAN DEAL WITH THEM AGAIN. TALK ABOUT MAKING YOU WANT TO JUST WALK AWAY AND NOT BUY ANOTHER NISSAN. I LOVE MY CAR BUT NISSAN'S CUSTOMER SERVICE FOR FAULTY PARTS SUCKS. THE ESCL HAS ISSUES THAT STILL AREN'T RESOLVED. NISSAN SAID IT WAS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. THAT IS BULL- NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR IS REPLACING BRAKES, TIRES AND EXHAUST. I JUST REPLACED MY TIRES LAST YEAR AND MY BRAKES AND MUFFLER ARE STILL IN GOOD SHAPE AND ORIGINAL FROM WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR. THEY SHOULD LEAVE THE ESCL OFF GOING FORWARD. IT DOES NOTHING FOR YOU IF IT LEAVES YOU STRANDED.

NISSAN ISSUED A VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN BULLETIN NTB11-057 ON JUNE 23, 2011. THIS NOTICE ACKNOWLEDGES A MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITH THE ELECTRONIC STEERING COLUMN LOCK (ESCL) WHICH RENDERS THE VEHICLE INCAPABLE OF STARTING. I OWN A 2009 CUBE EQUIPPED WITH AN ESCL WHICH HAS MALFUNCTIONED. WHEN THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN PROCEEDED TO INITIATE A SERVICE COMM TO REPAIR THE DEFECT AS INSTRUCTED IN THE BULLETIN PRODUCED BY NISSAN WHEN HE ENTERED MY VIN THE VOLUNTARY SERVICE CAMPAIGN WAS NOT NOTED ON MY VIN RECORD. I CONTACTED NISSAN CORPORATE OFFICE TO DETERMINE WHY AND THEY HAD NOR RECORD OF THIS ISSUE ALTHOUGH IT IS CLEARLY REPORTED ON NHTSA'S WEBSITE AND THE ACTUAL BULLETIN WAS OBTAINED FROM NISSAN. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALED SEVERAL OWNERS WHO UTILIZED THIS BULLETIN TO HAVE THEIR VEHICLES REPAIRED. MY CAR CANNOT START WITHOUT THIS REPAIR BEING COMPLETED. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS BULLETIN IS LEGITIMATE AND WHY MY VEHICLE FITS THE DESCRIBED AFFECTED VEHICLE BUT IS NOT ELIGIBLE TO BE REPAIRED.

WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH CAR LOOSES POWER UNDER ACCELERATIN AND THEN STALLS WHEN YOU GET BELOW 10 MPH WILL START BACK UP AFTER SITTING FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES THE CAR IS A 6 SPEED MANUEL. NO LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE DASH THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW
