2014 Nissan Armada

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Armada. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving and while parked the rear hatch opened unintentionally. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed with corrosion of the rear door handle motor. The contact was informed that the door handle motor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

I BOUGHT MY VEH ON 2/7/18 AFTER PURCHASING AND GETTING HOME SEVERAL DAYS LATER WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HWY THE LIFT TAIL GATE STARTED TO OPEN AND MY DASHBOARD STARTED TO DING BUT THERE WHERE NO WARNING LIGHTS. I HAD TO PULL OFF HWY REALLY QUICKLY TO DEAL WITH THIS ISSUE. THEN AGAIN ON 2/20/18 THE LIFT GATE DID THIS AGAIN 2 TIMES WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WENT TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID BEFORE THE SECOND INCIDENT IT WOULDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS HAS SCARED ME BOTH TIMES OF HOW DANGEROUS THIS IS. I HAVE TURNED THIS INTO NISSAN TWICE AND HAVE STILL NOT HEARD FROM ANYONE WHEN IT WAS TURNED IN ON 2/14/18. I HAD THE DEALERSHIP CHECK THE VEH ON 2/13/18 AND THEY FOUND A DEFECT IN THE BAR THAT OPERATES THIS LIFT AND ALSO A SENSOR ISSUE THAT CONTROLS THE ELECTRICAL FUNCTION AND ALSO A DEFECT IN THE MOTOR ON THE VEH. THEY SAID AFTER THE FIRST TIME THAT THE VEH WAS SAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE WITHOUT IT HAPPENING AGAIN AND THEY WERE WRONG AS IT HAD HAPPENED 2 TIMES AFTER THAT. NEITHER TIME WAS ANY BUTTON PRESSED TO OPEN THE LIFT GATE THE VEH WAS MOVING ON THE ROAD.
