The passenger side pillar molding continues to fly off when I am driving my vehicle. This has happened three separate times. The molding hit my windshield twice while I was driving and almost caused me too wreck, as well as the other vehicles on the highway. This is unsafe and should be corrected. Not to mention that it cost me $150 each time it has to be replaced.

The left and right rear fender moulding is falling off of my vehicle. This is a trim piece that connects the rear fender and the roof. This piece is about 26" long. The plastic clips that hold it on are failing and the left piece has fallen off while driving, and the right piece is loose and failing. This is a hazard and many other owners have had the same experience.

My daughter parked my car outside at approx. 10:30 p.m. At 2:05 a.m, it ignited and exploded. My state farm investigator said it ignited due to ABS actuator leaking brake fluid onto the circuit board. I called nissan because there was a recall for this but they claim my car was not included in the recall. I had recently purchased the vehicle and only had it like 20 days. Car was totaled! *dt consumer stated former licensed construction contractor, and a certified fire investigator specializing in fire origin and cause investigation, and consultation. He already inspected my car and told me my car ignited and exploded because the ABS actuator pump leaked brake fluid onto the internal circuit board which started the fire.

The left side mirror on the driver side is blocking the view of the road and people crossing the hike making left turn. I was at a signal and waiting for yield to turn left and at the turning the driver side mirror objected the view and completely missed a walker crossing the road until she was almost head on..diagonal left views from driver side are blocked
