THE KEYLESS ENTRY FOB IS SLIGHTLY SENSITIVE. I FINANCED THE CAR ON 3/10/2020. AFTER TAKING A NAP UPON LEAVING THE VACCINATION CLINIC FOR TETNA ADULT SHOT, I SLEPT FROM AROUND 6PM-142AM IN A WOODED AREA PARKING SPOT AT A LOCAL PARK AND WHEN I WOKE UP, MY CAR DOORS WERE UNLOCKED AND MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WAS OPEN A LITTLE AND I HAD IT RAISED AND WAS SURE TO LICK THE DOOR PRIOR TO GOING TO SLEEP. THEN ON 3/11/2029, I WENT TO THE CONVENIENCE STORE FOR A PIT STOP WHEN I ARRIVED BACK TO THE CAR, THE TRUNK WAS OPEN AND WHEN I GOT OUT IF THE CAR I WAS SURE TO LOOK AT IT WHILE HITTING THE LOCK AND PLACED THE KEY IN MY POCKET.

THE BUTTONS ON MY STEERING WHEEL WORKS WHEN THEY WANT TO.. THEY FRONT RADAR SENSOR CUTS OF AND SAYS IT'S OBSTRUCTED AND THE CRASH LIGHT COMES ON I WAS DRIVING OUT OF STATE THE FIRST TIME THE RADAR QUIT WORKING UNTIL I COULD SHUT THE CAR OFF AND STARTED IT AGAIN.. THE BUTTONS WAS THE SAME TIME IT STARTED IN JANUARY THE FIRST TIME THEN HASN'T DONE IT TILL NOW 02-28-2020 CONSTANTLY

DRIVING ON FREEWAY LESS THAN 35 MPH, CAR MADE LOUD NOISE FOR 1-2 MINUTES AT SAME TIME I FELT UNDER FLOOR BOARD SOMETHING PULLING. I TRIED TO SLOW DOWN, BRAKES DIDN'T WORK. I REAR ENDED A CAR. THE CAR GEAR SHIFT POPPED INTO REVERSE; I PRESSED HARDER ON BRAKES & THEY FINALLY WORKED. I NOTICED A BIG LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD SAYING 'MALFUNCTION, CHECK OWNERS MANUAL' THERE WAS A GRAY SYMBOL NEAR THESE WORDS. INSIDE THE SPEEDOMETER CIRCLE THAT SAME SYMBOL APPEARED IN BRIGHT YELLOW. AT SOME POINT WITHIN AN HOUR 2 MORE YELLOW SYMBOLS APPEARED ON THE FAR LEFT OF THE DASH, A YELLOW TRIANGLE WITH AN EXPLANATION POINT, AND A CAR WITH 2 CURVED LINES BEHIND THE BACK TIRES. WHEN THE CAR WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED IT FROM, THE STAFF IMMEDIATELY ATTEMPTED TO BLAME ME FOR THE INCIDENT'ASKING WHY DIDN'T I BRING THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE? AND THAT I HAVE TO GET A RENTAL CAR AND MY CAR REPAIR THROUGH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. HE PUSHED THE IDEA OF GETTING THE CAR REPAIRED. I STATED I JUST BARELY GOT THE CAR 3-4 WEEKS AGO BRAND NEW. I LEFT THE CAR TO BE CHECKED BY SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THE NEXT DAY THE SERVICE MANAGER DENIED ANY MALFUNCTION SAYING THERE WASN'T ANY CURRENT CODES JUST PAST CODES; I ASKED WHAT THAT MEANT HE SAID A BRAKE SENSOR AND SOME OTHER DATA I DIDN'T COMPREHEND. HE SAID GET MY INSURANCE TO FIX THE CAR. I SAID NO SIR, I WANT MORE INFORMATION ON WHY THE CAR MALFUNCTION FIRST. ONCE I EXPLAIN TO HIM AGAIN WHAT HAPPENED HE SAID HE WOULD HAVE HIS FORMAN CHECK OUT THIS CAR THE NEXT MORNING; HOWEVER LESS THAN AN HOUR THE SERVICE MANAGER ME BACK TO SAY HE TALKED TO A FIELD TECH ENGINEER AND WAS ADVISED THAT I HAD A RIGHT TO CALL NISSAN CORP TO MAKE A REPORT. I WENT BY SRVC DPT TO GET SOMETHING, THEY TRIED TO GET TO TAKE/REPAIR MY CAR. I DIDN'T. ONCE I SPOKE TO NISSAN CORP THEY SAID IT TAKE 6-8 WEEKS FOR INVESTIGATION ETC TO BE COMPLETED AND FOR ME NOT TO GET CAR REPAIRED.
