What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
The contact stated that after purchasing the vehicle, there was a whining and ringing sound coming from the vehicle. There was a grinding sound while making a hard turn. The dealer was contacted to return the vehicle. While driving, there was an abnormally loud bang.
No crash, fire, or injury occurred. Reporting because failure of the electrical insulation systems in both high-voltage traction motors at low mileage may indicate a traction-motor/high-voltage system defect.
Car's backup camera doesn't engage, leaving the screen black. Dealer claimed it was fixed after a four hour visit, but the camera broke again the same day.
My infant daughter became stuck in the rear seat due to a seat belt malfunction in my Nissan Ariya Evolve+. The seat belt buckle would not release even after repeated attempts to press the release button. We tried multiple times to unbuckle it normally, but it remained stuck and would not open.
The car was purchased new from the Nissan dealer at the end of Dec 2024 with 100miles, and currently has 5,798 miles on the odometer. The 12v battery failed, unable to be charged and hold a charge, this disabled the the EV from starting and functioning.
While charging my vehicle, the charger failed to stop the charging session on command. I was unable to stop the charging session from the vehicle as well. I was therefore unable to move the vehicle for any reason (medical emergency or other urgent reason) until the state of charge reached 100%.
1/18/2025 EV SYSTEM SHOT OFF, Car is totally malfunction, can't accelerate and stop in the middle of FWY-15, CA, Can't turn it back on. We are at speed 70-80 mph and no warning, suddenly the EV System shut off, only take 3-5 second and fully stop in the middle of I-15 FWY at Barstow, CA.
EV system failure when starting trip created car that could move sluggishly but was unable to perform. Car has 120 miles on OD
