2010 Nissan Cube complaints

HORN IS NOT LOUD ENOUGH TO WARN OTHER DRIVERS OF PRESENCE. IT IS BARELY AUDIBLE. RESULTED IN DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE THAT MAY HAVE BEEN AVOIDED WITH A LOUDER HORN. *KB

THE VEHICLE LACKS A CLEAR VISIBLE INDICATOR TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN THE PARKING LIGHT SETTING AND THE SETTING WHERE THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ON. *TR

2010 NISSAN CUBE. HORRIBLE HANDLING CONDITIONS IN WINDS OVER 25 MPH. TIRE LIGHT WOULD COME OFF AND ON. THOUGHT IT WAS DUE TO COLD AND HOT WEATHER. TOOK VEHICLE IN TO ED HICKS NISSAN BECAUSE OF THE HANDLING. THEY SAID IT WAS TIRE. PUT NITROGEN IN TIRES. I HAD ALSO BEEN INFORMED THAT THEY SALE THE CARS WITH THIS SO DID NOT KNOW HOW THIS WOULD RESOLVE ISSUE. 24 HOURS LATER LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN AND STAYS ON. HAD TIRE PRESSURE CHECKED-SHOWED ALL 35. DROVE WITH THIS LIGHT ON FOR A WEEK-LIVE 60 MILES FROM DEALER WAS WAITING FOR A DAY WHEN I DROVE IN. ANYWAY-HAD A TIRE BLOW OUT BUT DID NOT EVEN KNOW IT FOR A MILE DUE TO IT BEING LEFT REAR AND COULD NOT GO BY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT. TIRE WAS SMOKING HORRIBLY. THERE ARE HORRIBLE GLARE EFFECTS ON THE WINDOWS ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. THE DASH LIGHTS REFLECT SO BAD YOU HAVE TO ROLL DOWN WINDOW TO SEE CARS IN MIRRORS. IF YOU LOOSEN YOUR GRIP AT ALL EVEN SLIGHTLY IN WIND THE CAR VEERS INTO THE OTHER LANES. DEALERS TRYING TO ACT LIKE I AM JUST BEING A FICKLE WOMAN. *TR

THE CAR HAS A KEYLESS IGNITION, WHICH SINCE OCTOBER HAS BEEN INTERMITTENTLY NOT STARTING WITHOUT TWO OR THREE ATTEMPTS. ON THIS OCCASION. AFTER PRESSING THE BRAKE AND THE IGNITION BUTTON THREE AND FAILING TO START THE CAR, I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND TURNED TO GET MY PHONE FROM THE BACK SEAT WHEN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STARTED UP ALL BY ITSELF. ALTHOUGH THE CAR HAS BEEN HAVING START UP PROBLEMS FOR MONTHS THAT THE MECHANIC HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO DISCOVER THE REASON FOR, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE CAR ACTUALLY STARTED BY ITSELF. ADDITIONALLY ON DECEMBER 17TH, THE CAR HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN IN THE SHOP THAT DAY, AND WHILE DRIVING THAT EVENING, THE CAR BEGAN SURGING AND SHAKING AT EVERY RED LIGHT, WHILE THE BRAKE WAS DEPRESSED, AS IF IT WANTED TO CONTINUE GOING FORWARD. WE DROVE IT STRAIGHT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY COULDN'T REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. WHILE THERE, WE ASKED ABOUT A STRANGE NOISE THAT IT MAKES ON IGNITION. THE MECHANIC TOLD US THAT NISSAN SAYS IT IS THE COMPUTER BOOTING UP. HOWEVER,WE LISTENED TO ANOTHER CUBE OF THE SAME YEAR THAT WAS ON THE LOT AND IT DOESN'T MAKE THAT NOISE.

ONE NIGHT AFTER HAVING RECALL WORK DONE, AS I WAS DRIVING THE CAR, AT EVERY RED LIGHT, THE CAR WOULD START SURGING FORWARD AS IF IT WANTED TO GO. AS I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE EVEN HARDER, THE CAR STARTED SHAKING. I DROVE IT STRAIGHT BACK TO THE DEALER BUT IT STOPPED DOING IT AND HASN'T DONE IT SINCE. HOWEVER, IT ALSO STARTED NOT STARTING WHEN I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE AND PUSHED THE IGNITION BUTTON. GENERALLY I HAD TO PUSH THE BUTTON, NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN, THE NEXT PUSH BROUGHT UP THE ACCESSORY LIGHTS AND THEN NEXT PUSH MADE THE CAR START. HOWEVER, SINCE THIS HAS HAPPENED A DOZEN OF TIMES, THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED, THE CAR WOULDN'T START AFTER FOUR TRIES AND AFTER I HAD DEPRESSED THE BRAKE AND WAS REACHING IN THE BACK SEAT TO GET MY KEYS AND PHONE AND FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM, THE CAR SUDDENLY AND ALL BY ITSELF STARTED THE MOTOR UP. THE MECHANIC RAN DIAGNOSTICS AND STILL CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THE CAR AND AM TRYING TO GET THE DEALER TO MAKE IT RIGHT. THEY WANT NISSAN TO BE INVOLVED IN HELPING THAT HAPPEN FINANCIALLY AND NISSAN IS STICKING TO LEMON LAW REGULATIONS. I REFUSE TO DRIVE THIS CAR ANYMORE. *TR
