I confirmed the recall and brought the vehicle in early they received it told me it should be done by lunch. At 3:45 pm they messaged me it was all done and ready to go. I called and questioned them as to whether or not the airbag needed to be replaced, where they admitted they actually didnt do anything. They started to work on it, realized they wouldnt have time and put it back together. The keys would be at the front desk at sales they were going home. I went down and asked about a rental as the vehicle had a dangerous recall (I had just purchased the vehicle used) they said service is closed go ahead and drive it home and set another appointment and try again. Not only did they lie originally by stating it was all done and ready to go in hopes I wouldnt ask about the airbag. They then insisted I drive it home knowing it was a danger to my family and myself.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"NISSAN","productModel":"ARMADA","manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11723188,"manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"03/09/2026","dateComplaintFiled":"03/10/2026","vin":"5N1AA08D78N","components":"EXTERIOR LIGHTING","summary":"No brake lights.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"NISSAN","productModel":"ARMADA","manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11707937,"manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"11/30/2025","dateComplaintFiled":"12/30/2025","vin":"5N1AA08C68N","components":"FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM","summary":"My son & I took the car out two days after I bought it. Wanted to see how things looked at night. I took an unfamiliar rd ,( why,I dont know) Enjoying the ride and all the dash lights and bright headlights. Coming up to what appeared to be a slight downhill, curved rd, The car suddenly would not let me steer or brake or, What the heck! I thought its broken and we are going to crash in the trees! Realizing the car shut itself off,im asking, ok yelling at my son, what do I do??? IT took all I had to try & stay calm, and drive like , back when. (No power steering,)but not sure what to do about brakes. Thank God, I had made that corner ok and as rd leveled, I was slowing enough to pull out of the way of the guy behind me in such a hurry. Pulling to the curb, slowly using ebrake, I stopped finally. Took me a good half hour to stop shaking to get out & let my son have a look. Gas tank still full, as it was a few weeks earlier when we test drove. He tried to start , the engine tried to start but just wouldn't cooperate. Didn't know what to look for under hood. So called a friend who thank goodness found us, bringing a battery, tow hook & gas. Hooked up battery charger, poured a little gas, stood out there freezing till they went to try & start & his magic worked. Started up and was on our way. No problem the rest of the night. Texted the people the next day asking about that & she said they never had any such problem. We tested the battery which was fine & still lots of gas. It happened again a couple weeks later. I inquired again about that problem & a couple other things. But, no the cars been great with only brakes replaced the time they had the vehicle. Ok, well this happen again, so I looked into it only to find there has been a recall on something to do with gastank & floater or such. We noticed if we keep a full tank of gas, It doesn't seem to happen. What I read was a recall which they said had never been a problem & never recieved. Well....??We wonder.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"NISSAN","productModel":"ARMADA","manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11553590,"manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"10/25/2023","dateComplaintFiled":"11/04/2023","vin":"5N1AA08D68N","components":"ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM","summary":"THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FUEL GAUGE IS INACCURATELY DISPLAYING THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAS SOME FUEL, TYPICALLY ABOUT ONE QUARTER TANK, WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS EMPTY.

It started out happening around a quarter of a tank with anywhere from 25 to 60 miles to empty according to the reading on the screen display. There has been no warning of running out of gas, it just happens while driving, the vehicle starts to shut down & the steering wheel eventually locks up, I do not have very long to find a driveway or parking lot to coast into before the vehicle completely shuts down. Over time it has happened at different intervals indicating I still have gas according to the gauge & the screen display, one time it showed as much as 147 miles to empty. My husband & I researched what may need to be checked or replaced to remedy the issue, everything led to changing the fuel pump which we did in August 2022. Within a few days it started happening again, at that time we had a mechanic look at my vehicle, they figured out that the fuel pump was missing a cap on the end of it, they replaced it. After about 4-6 months or so it started happening again, at that time we brought it back to the same mechanic to assess. After keeping it for 4 days, they decided that \"the fuel pump must be bad & needs to be changed, sometimes fuel pumps just go bad\". After paying over $700.00 to replace the fuel pump again (March 2023), it lasted about 2 weeks & happened again! There was a recall back in 2010 I believe for the fuel sending unit on my vehicle, Nissan replaced it at no charge, however, I was not having any issues at that time, when I called Nissan a year or so ago, they told me that a recall can only be done once where they fix the issue at no charge.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"NISSAN","productModel":"ARMADA","manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":11487995,"manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"10/03/2022","dateComplaintFiled":"10/05/2022","vin":"5N1AA08C68N","components":"AIR BAGS,FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE","summary":"The contact owns a 2008 Nissan Armada.

I immediately had a anxiety attack trying to figure out what was happening because no warning lights came on in which had me panic even more. I tried to calm down and get off to side of roadway at least before it did shut off. As soon as I started to drive off to side it shut off I tried to give it gas nothing and the steering wheel had tighten up(no power)so now we was rolling and I'm trying my hardest to steer so we wouldn't hit anything. It was the most scariest moment of my life and my life flashed in front of me and praying no trucks came flying. I proceeded to call AAA they asked my location and if we was in a safe area, did it run out of gas, etc.... They said they will dispatch a tow truck and also tell them to being gas just in case. I said it's by 1/2 tank and say it's 153 miles til empty, they said sometimes those gauge don't work, I said the digital fuel as well would be off. Well the tow truck came check fluids, batteries and nothing was wrong he put the gas and it started. This is very dangerous for this gauge to be broken and not operating correctly because it just shut off and had me and my children and friend was in a deadly accident due to a [XXX] malfunction from a defaulted gas reader. What would you people tell our families oh we sorry. This is a serious serious deadly problem that needs to be addressed immediately.\u00a0 Another problem is the suspension and tires.

I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT A MOTOR WOULD JUST CATCH ON FIRE AND AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE TO RANDY REED NISSAN, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT STATED THE SEAT ADJUSTER WAS STUCK IN THE \"ON\" POSITION. THE QUESTION I HAVE IS HOW CAN IT STICK IN THE ON POSITION WHEN WE ARE NOT TOUCHING THE SEAT ADJUSTERS. LASTLY, SINCE MY WIFE STATED SHE SMELLED A BURNT SMELL WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE OFF POSITION, WHAT IF THE ADJUSTER CAUGHT FIRE WHILE IN THE GARAGE AND CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO BURN AND CATCHING THE HOUSE ON FIRE. I SAY THIS BECAUSE THE ADJUSTOR WOULD HAVE CAUGHT FIRE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS OFF. IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH HAVING THE VEHICLE ON. THERE SHOULD BE A SAFETY SWITCH TO KEEP SOMETHING LIKE THAT FROM HAPPENING. IT ALSO CAUSED $3,600 IN REPAIR WHICH WE HAVE NOT COMPLETED YET. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"NISSAN","productModel":"ARMADA","manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":10548545,"manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"10/01/2013","dateComplaintFiled":"10/19/2013","vin":"","components":"ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,STRUCTURE","summary":"THE OVERHEAD CONSOLE FELL DOWN WITHOUT WARNING GOING DOWN THE ROAD AT 55 MPH. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"NISSAN","productModel":"ARMADA","manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":10548159,"manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"09/15/2011","dateComplaintFiled":"10/16/2013","vin":"5N1BA08D38N","components":"STRUCTURE","summary":"I PURCHASED THE 2008 NISSAN ARMADA BRAND NEW.

THE EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE: - I WAS ON A HIGHWAY OVERPASS BRIDGE, BRAKING AS I APPROACHED THE RED STOPLIGHT & PREPARING TO ENTER THE HIGHWAY ON-RAMP. AS I WAS BRAKING, I FELT A LOST OF BRAKE CONTROL, SLIPPING MOMENTARILY FOR 1 SECOND. AT FIRST I BRUSHED OFF THE SENSATION AS DUE TO BRIDGE VIBRATION, POSSIBLY DUE TO MINOR EARTHQUAKE OR VEHICLES/TRUCKS PASSING THROUGH THE BRIDGE. - ABOUT 3 WEEKS AFTER THE 1ST EVENT, I WAS APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION AND THE TRAFFIC LIGHT WAS RED AND APPLYING LIGHT & CONSTANT PRESSURE, I LOST CONTROL OF THE BRAKE AGAIN FOR LIKE 1S BEFORE REGAINING CONTROL. MY CAR WAS WITHIN INCHES OF HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. - ABOUT 3 DAYS AFTER THE 2ND EVENT, I WAS APPROACHING A RED INTERSECTION, BUT THIS TIME MY CAR IS AHEAD OF EVERYONE. AS I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKE, I AGAIN LOST CONTROL OF THE BRAKE FOR ABOUT A SECOND BEFORE REGAINING CONTROL. MY CAR ENDED UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION & OTHER ANGRY DRIVERS ENDED UP HONKING AT ME. 2.THE FAILURE, HOW OFTEN IT OCCURS, ITS CONSEQUENCES: A MOMENTARY SENSATION OF LOSING BRAKE CONTROL, AS IF I AM DRIVING & SLIPPING ON ICE. ALL 3 EVENTS HAPPENED UNDER 30-40 MPH, WITH LIGHT BUT CONSTANT BRAKING APPLIED. IT IS LIKE THERE IS SOMETHING TRIGGERING/NOT TRIGGERING THE ABS. THE ROAD CONDITION IN ALL 3 EVENTS IS PAVED SMOOTHLY, DRY, NOT RAINING. IT HAPPENED ABOUT 3 OBVIOUS TIMES IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS. AS A RESULT, I HAVE TO GIVE MYSELF MORE DISTANCE WHEN BRAKING AT LOW SPEED. IN ALL 3 EVENTS, THERE WERE 2 OTHER ADULTS IN THE CAR AS WITNESS. I STILL FEEL IT OTHER TIMES, BUT I GAVE MYSELF MORE DISTANCE TO ANTICIPATE THE SENSATION. 3.WHAT WAS DONE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE. AFTER EVENT 2 & 3, I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION BUT THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG, NOTHING WAS REPLACED AND ASKED ME TO BRING IT BACK NEXT TIME IT HAPPENED. I TOLD THEM THAT NEXT TIME SOMEONE MIGHT GET KILLED OR I MIGHT BE DEAD AND NOT COMING BACK. 2008 NISSAN ARMADA SE 4X4. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"NISSAN","productModel":"ARMADA","manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc."}]},{"odiNumber":10300277,"manufacturer":"Nissan North America, Inc.","crash":false,"fire":false,"numberOfInjuries":0,"numberOfDeaths":0,"dateOfIncident":"01/19/2010","dateComplaintFiled":"01/19/2010","vin":"5N1BA08D78N","components":"ELECTRICAL SYSTEM","summary":"NEED TO REPLACE A BATTERY IN A 2008 NISSAN ARMADA.
