I HAVE NOTICED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS THIS SUMMER, A CRACKLING SOUND IN LOWER PORTION OF THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. I ACTUALLY REMEMBER HEARING IT LAST SUMMER BUT IT IS NOW MORE AUDIBLE. THE WARM WEATHER MUST BE A FACTOR. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS WITH MY KEYLESS FOB, IT DOES NOT ALWAYS WORK AND MY IGNITION AN REAR LIFT GATE SOMETIMES WILL OPERATE EVEN WHEN THE FOB IS WITHIN 3 FEET. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST 2 MONTHS. I TOOK IT TO NISSAN AND THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. I PURCHASED THE CAR BRAND NEW IN AUG. 2011. NO ACCIDENTS. UPDATED 4/24/2015 *JS
