I had one day to fi d a car, so no time to research.

I had one day to fi d a car, so no time to research. Seats are very uncomfortable. Front crash sensor has gone bad for no reason whatsoever, meaning the front end hasn't even bumped into anything. The last sraw is the radiator fan and control module. Had to replace them together a year ago. Now they're out again. Poorly designed! Poorly engineered! A real piece of crap nissan!

Had this car two years, regularly maintained.

Had this car two years, regularly maintained. Transmission started slipping after 100k miles which is past warranty, had transmission oil changed, it got worse. Called shop about issue, says CVT transmissions are horrible and always have issues early on. Said he’s working on another kicks needing a transmission at 70k miles. By far worst car I’ve ever owned. Also, it’s got drum brakes in the back, stopping is never as tuned as my other cars in the past. It’s just a money pit, would not recommend, and I’m staying far away from any Nissan.

Kept getting check owner manual light after making a steep turn or going down a sharp decline hill. After taking to dealership several times was told it was common anti lock brake system warning. Should NOT be common for this to keep happening it's very stressful and unreliable to say the least. FIX this issue under a recall NISSAN! Never buying another Nissan.

Do not recommend.

I've had this car for 4 years. During this period I've had several malfunction lights turn on. They changed some parts but the problems persists. When the warranty expired they found that the problem was the EBS system so I had to pay. They also had to change the radio. I had to repair the a/c and now the paint is chipping.

Sadly a lemon, kicks 2023

Normally, I would say, I love the Nissan but certainly not this one! Since the second day of ownership I have experienced delayed acceleration, which is most which is most stressful when proceeding onto an interstate highway, I have experienced issues with the brakes, but worst of all the vehicle unlocks itself when the lights or the dashboard or ignition lights go out on the auto. Sorry but I'm very disappointed this is a lemon!

I love my Kicks

I’m coming up in July on 2 years with my Kicks and I still love it. I have gotten so many people stopping me and asking me about this crossover. The only thing I wish was offered were the options on more expensive models like the push button hatch closing and AWD option. I took care of my moonroof problem and had dealer install one before I picked up the car from the showroom. The only negative is that I’m my SR model is that they made the doors and dash great but skimped on the door panels. Would of been nice to have that wrap around. I think I will keep this for quite awhile.
