Problem # 1- is 3 out of 4 door lock actuators all of a sudden stopped working at the exact same time, except the driver door. This is a huge safety issue and causes the door to remain locked. This causes someone getting locked inside the vehicle or locked outside. (Google) all the review's as this is a common thing people are reporting. Problem #2- My daughter said she almost passed out because he gas tank started to leak because the hose connector is plastic and integrated into the gas tank. The only way to fix...

this is replace the gas tank at $600+. (Google) this is a common problem that people are reporting. My vehicle only has 40k miles on it and its already a fire hazard because fuel is leaking from a plastic cheap fitting. This is the fitting that the fill hose connects to the gas tank. No warning signs until gas fumes filled the cab. This is a fire hazard and also can cause the driver to pass out because of the fumes in the vehicle. No inspections just phone calls to the service department. They want to charge me $175 to just tell me what is broken that I already know. So I called local dealership and they confirmed the symptoms are likely due to broken actuators, and plastic gas fittings.
Problem is the anti theft module located on the steering column has malfunctioned for my wife's 2010 Nissan Cube keyless ignition. Vehicle would not restart for my wife after sitting for 5 hours, luckily she was not way off somewhere. From what I've seen Nissan did a recall of a similar defective module on other models but did not include the Cube. Nissan doesn't even have the parts readily available for repair. Vehicle has been sitting at a repair shop for over a month now. This should be a safety issue as it...

could leave people totally stranded in the middle of nowhere with no meaningful way to repair the vehicle. The part number of the module is 487001 FA0C. It is believed that Nissan did not recall the Cube because of the low quantity of vehicles manufactured in relation to the other problem models.
Started my car at 9. Went to start my car at 10. Wouldn't start. The escl has failed.

needed to run it to see what was going on and would not present and spare car for the inconvenience or had any car fax on hand. July 16th 2020 I noticed that oil was indeed leaking from the bottom of the car.
The car will stop running and die. It has been worked on and the fuse box and brake lamp light switch has been replaced twice. When it dies it smell like burning electrical wiring and smoke comes out from under the hood. I have almost been killed half a dozen times. I can't drive the car safely.
My vehicle would not start. I had to have it towed to my mechanic where his computer diagnostic found the problem to be the steering module that starts the vehicle. I had to have it replaced at my cost of $971.00. My mechanic informed me that this same problem was prevalent in the year prior to mine and that they were being repaired by the manufacturer. I contacted the manufacturer and was told there was no campaign for my particular vin number. I don't understand why the year prior to mine is covered but mine is...

not. I am the original owner of the vehicle and I have had this vehicle serviced as required through the dealership originally, then continued by my mechanic. I would like to file a complaint against this manufacturer to get reimbursed for this defect.
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 this day are having problems with the escl and the extremely expensive repair bills that go with it.

The antitheft lock malfunctioned. Now the car wont start.
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 2010 nissan cube. The contact stated that the vehicle was driven to a location and parked.

The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 170,000.
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.
Back door handle fails to unlock no key access to open or fix...Known problem for these cars. Tps sensors malfunction
