  • Hi all, here is a brief overview of the problems I have experienced with my Nissan Qashqai since leasing new in 2016.
    This is not a bash Qashqai post, we had a 2013 one beforehand and this was excellent and suited our family needs. This time round however we have experienced end to end issues and have been far from impressed.
    Service from Sandicliffe Loughborough has been poor, with month(s) waiting times and a lack of loan cars. Nissan CEO office have been friendly but have added no real value in terms of compensation or a change in service. Wasted 8 days holiday, spent weeks idle on the drive and its been embarrassing to drive with the various rattling noises of loose piping and still have issues with stop start and the heating. This does not feel like a 24k car.
    In the video I list the following problems:-
    1) Flywheel Trouble
    2) Loose Pipe Fitting
    3) Rear Camera Not Working
    4) Stop Start Not Working
    5) New Tire after 12,000 miles
    6) Oil leaks
    7) Recall for brake line concerns
    8) Dipstick broken

    Thanks for this vid, I'm about to update my car again and was looking at one of these 2016 in tekna trim which was going to set me back 16k. This is definitely crossed off the list now. Cheers.

      Hi Golf Fox, Can't blame you for looking, design wise they look nice. If you were pitching up that kind of cash get an extended warranty to rule out any teething problems in your first few months. All cars have issues, but going back I would have put my money elsewhere.

    • @MyFoxworld

      Mini Man I never keep a car very long, around 2 years. And I always pay straight cash and expect to have no trouble from any car if I pay 12/16k for it. I really feel for folk that pay a lot of money for a car and have problems with it. It's just not on.
      Right now I have a Hyundai i40 premium and it has not gave me a bit of bother over the 18 months that I have had it. I just need a hatchback boot. My next two choices after the Nissan were a Citroen c4 Picasso exclusive plus as my kids absolutely love it when we went to look at one last week, while I like the extra toys I get.
      And a Suzuki SX4 S-cross Sz5 allgrip which would be my choice, although I have not been to see one yet I just like the look of the new shape ones I have seen. I'm limited to what I can choose from as my kids do not want to give up the panoramic roof like we have on the Hyundai.

      I've done 130,000 miles in my 1.6 tekna plus dci 65 plate I have had no issues what so ever with the car I service it regularly, I do 25,000 miles a year and still get anything from 50 > 60 miles per gallon. I will be seriously looking at the new e power in a years time .

    Thank you for your informative video. I would like to add a note about my own experience with a 2014 model Qashqai. On 22 June, I was ready to leave to go on holiday at 5:00 am except that my car refused to start; very annoying. Although I could use my electronic key to enter the car, nothing would happen when I pushed the start/stop button except that the dashboard would light up with all sorts of warnings and error messages. It took 22 days for the Nissan garage to try to identify the fault. They concluded that we needed to change the engine control unit. This took another week and cost 1,297 euros. But this morning, one week after that change, the same problem again. The Nissan garage says that it will take two weeks before they can take a second look at my car. During all that time the garage did not have a courtesy car available for me and I had to pay myself for car rental. I was satisfied with my Qashqai, but I think that my Nissan garage (the main one in Lisbonne) is badly lacking in competence and care.
    If anyone experienced the same sort of problem, I would be happy to receive advice. My guess is that it may be a faulty sensor somewhere.

    I had (have) issues 3, 4 and 8 in 2016 Qashqai (UK). Also the air intake part for the motor was rattling, similar to the noise in issue Nr 2. Solved by me with insulation tape. At some point the control panel (music, SatNav, etc) started to reboot randomly. This was fixed by Nissan as the guarantee was still valid. The stop-start (I refer here to the automatic one) doesn't work when the car is cold. after some 20 minutes of driving, I switch off the car manually and then it will work after restarting it. Still, I am happy with it, everything works well, nothing in the interior peels off or decolorates/cracks by sunlight, good connectivity with my phone. I use it a lot (1500 miles monthly) with heavy loads often. After 100K miles, it has never let me down on the road. Mine is a Tekna 1.5. No car is perfect, I had American cars with much worse problems (computers disconnecting while driving, temperature warning not working, etc).

    I am afraid that the Nissan brand and its build quality were the first things out of the window as soon as Renault had anything to do with it. Its a shame that people buying vehicles by name these days has nothing to do with that original name. Renault have destroyed the Nissan brand and disguised their terrible French vehicles as something else, thus duping people into buying their awful product.

Only 2 problems i had so far is rattling from inside doors (it dissapeared by now by itself) and the other issue i had is problems with engine. Sometimes during colder winters the engine would not start. It sounded like its common problem for this car. It worked last couple of years, but im still afraid that one day during winter time it wont start. Good news is we have warm winters here in south sweden. Around +5 to -10 celcius. Happy with the car otherwise, good bang for the buck. Paid it off in like 3 years so im driving happy now.

    Hi there. Is the Qashqai clutch heavy? I've test drive a 2016 model yesterday and OMG its very heavy - my car at the moment is a 17yrs old Peugeot 307 and its still lighter compare to the QQ. I've also sat in over 7+ Qashqai (2016 and 2017) today and press on the clutch, they're all quite heavy too.

    • @HenryGeorge2018
      @HenryGeorge2018  2 года назад

      From memory the clutch was stiff but felt a bit flimsy too. (Like they had used a cheap metal) They do tend to wear down on the Nissan quite quickly, so it could be that? What did you go for in the end? The 307's are such a classic 👍

    nice and honest review. I was thinking switching my kuga for nissan after 4 years, so I started searching videos like this one. I am not a heavy driver, 10000km per year at max, and in 4 years and didn't have a single issue with kuga. replaced the front left bulb last month and that's pretty much it. japanese cars especially mazdas seem to be unreliable. mazda vehiecles usually have issues with oil, paint, plastic elements (all kinds of plastic covers start to rattle and fall off) and electronics of course . I thought ford was the worst, but I was wrong. kuga is like a tenk when i compare it to mazda. after 4 years I still use original windshield wipers and there's no sign of tear whatsoever. after seeing this, I feel japanese cars are not what they used to be before.

    • @HenryGeorge2018
      @HenryGeorge2018  2 года назад

      Thanks for your kind comment. We had a Mazda for a while and that had paint and oil issues. Like you say, the quality was behind Nissan. BMW have been our most reliable to date, but I read people have loads of issues with them. Potentially it is all the luck of the draw. Are you still running your Kuga now?

  • @alexanderpatishi5876
    @alexanderpatishi5876 4 года назад +2

    I am in the US and cannot send a photo but I shall try to give more details.
    There is a long chute for the incoming air which is attached on one side to the front frame and further in the direction of the air filter, to the side panel of the engine compartment. 2 small 8 mm bolts are holding this chute. They are designed by Nissan engineers to give a small free movement because the air filter is vibrating with the engine but not the car body. The holes in the chutes are larger than the bolts. No matter how much you tight them there is a movement of about 3 mm.. My idea was not to stop rhis free movement, which is necessary, but to limit it. I opened the 2 bolts anf put around them, above the thread, Small 'O" rings (not discks,). This increased the diameter of the bolts by maybe 1 mm and thus reduced the free movement of the chute by 2 mm. It was enough to stop the air filter from touching the firewall and the irritating noise stopped.
    The whole construction of the air filter could be improved but as you know, the space in the engine compartment is limited.
    In order to reduce the diesel engine noise you can add a cover 1" above the engine but from a fire resisting material and thicker insulating to the bonnet. Do not worry about the engine getting hot. It will not. The engine in any case must have a clearance of 1-2 inches free so air will continue to flow freely around the engine.

    Have a 2015 identical to yours and have stopped returning to the dealership as they do nothing but waste my time; a technician privately admitted that 'Nissan would never have allowed the car to be released knowing it had such faults, since Renault got involved we're overrun'. The handbrake jammed on and they said I'd have to wait two weeks for an appointment before I could bring it to them! Had to get another garage to fix it and that was the last straw. I only have to put up with the rattles for a few more months!

    • @HenryGeorge2018

      Hi John, I hope you are well. Sounds like you have not had a great time with your one at all. The dealerships play a huge part here, and sadly there are a few which are not helping Nissan. Like you, it is getting to the point where it is a waste of time off and effort, as everything is your fault (According to them we are both driving with the foot pressed down on the clutch, hence our stop/start errors) or no fault found when it sounds like a diesel train. Did you ever contact Nissan directly? Be interesting to know what they did (If anything) Bet you can't wait to hand it back :)

    • @HenryGeorge2018
      @HenryGeorge2018  6 лет назад

All we want is a working car and frankly we would prefer to be doing something with our time :) Hope you get your problems sorted.

    • @TheRocco96
      @TheRocco96 6 лет назад +1

      I also have the stop-start problem. According to the dealership it's my fault because I don't drive enough kilometers (10K / year) so the battery isn't charged enough.

    • @HenryGeorge2018
      @HenryGeorge2018  5 лет назад +1

      Hi @TheRocco96 Interesting to see they have a variety of reasons for a silly stop start issue. Surely it is just a sensor and some software changes. Infact instead of the error they show now, they could easily update the software to say 'Please remove foot from clutch or allow warm up time etc' Basically the function doesn't work, and as a result their MPG being quoting is going to be wrong as most people are accepting the fault and turning of the functionality.

    the recall is just a bracket we do to keep the brake line away from rotating assembly , ) its for your own safety as well as others . The stop start system comes up with EVERY single fault you get on the car , so it's not the system itself, it's the way it works. When consult shows only stop start, you run a battery test. They run on 720 amps battery and most of the time the stop start itself kills the battery and usually you will find it sitting at merely 300 amps which isn't even half, so replacing the battery and clearing the faults will fix it . Other times it's the stop start relay which doesn't work properly as i said due to low battery amperage . The oil leak is most of the time coming from the timing chain cover . A simple removal and clean and re seal would fix it . Just a heads up .Worked on these cars for over 9 years now at our local Nissan dealership as a mechanic/technician .

    We had an issue where the car burned oil (1.2 dig-t). We couldn't get from one maintenance to the other without refilling the oil. So, there was an investigation started and Nissan themselves said the oil consumption was 'normal'. Come on, it's a brand-new car and it shouldn't burn oil. After 2 years of refilling Nissan allowed our dealer to replace the entire engine after they found scratches on the cylinder wall. So, don't buy the 1.2 DIG-T

  • @mka70
    @mka70 3 года назад +1

    I have the same sort of problems with the stop/start. 2 possible causes/solutions. 1) Battery level. I think I'm right in saying that if battery power drops below 80%, the system won't work. I have found that to be the case, especially after driving off on a cold day, with having the blowers on for heating/demisting. After driving for a while, and (presumably) the battery gets more charge in it, the system will work!
    2) Clutch hovering. I have a very bad tendency to leave my foot hovering/resting on the clutch. The Stop/Start system fault message has come up on my JII several times....each time it is when I have had my foot resting on the clutch pedal. As the system obviously relies on you pressing the clutch to restart, I'm wondering if by doing this, I'm activating the system somehow and it's either draining power out or tripping the system some way!
    I'm not a mechanic and have no real knowledge of this, just sharing my thoughts!

After replacing the battery a few times, the stop start they blamed for over a year on driving style, turned out the clutch pedal was at fault. We only leased ours, so can't back up how it is after 3 years. I can understand your nerves around it being a problem long term, so use it as much as you can now to see if there are problems. Outside this video, the alloys flaked on ours too, which made it look like it had hit the kerb alot, so keep an eye on that. They accepted this as a fault and replaced (common problem I am told).

    A few months later I was asked to bring the car in for the satnav fix. When I went to collect it they said “Your car needs a new engine”. Thinking they had confused me with another customer I explained that the car was in for a satnav problem. Answer? “Yes, we know, but it needs a new engine too!”

      Hi Alan, I hope you are well. Yes our is particularly bad on cold days. You can warm up but makes no real difference. Did you ever find out what caused your rattle or are you just putting up with it?As an update they have changed approach at the dealership and now saying no fault found on the rattle and that we are driving with our foot on the clutch all the time (Interesting as I don't and no other car had had this issue) so looking like I may have to take it beyond the dealership/CEO complaints now.

    They do seem to be a bit of a lottery. Had mine 5 months, and I'm about a grand in on repairs so far, and I still have a list of stuff that I'm not happy with. Brakes, tyres, suspension, steering angle sensor, battery, now it's running a rear wheel bearing and the handbrake has seized on one side. Bought as an everyday car that I can tow our caravan with; it's ok, but no better than ok. Wouldn't have another one; my previous Kia Ceed was better built, more efficient and waaay less trouble.

    Nissan Qashqai Front parking sensors manufacturing Fault!
    Just had my car in today for the replacement front parking sensors. The plastic coating on the front of the sensors bubbles causing the sensors to intermittently and randomly come on with nothing around the car. This is due to an manufacturing fault as there is no water egress hole in the plastic surround to the sensor!
    Nissan’s poor fix is getting the Dealership to drill a hole in the plastic surround under the sensor to allow water escape!
    Bristol Street Motors do not inform you of this and put all the blame on Nissan if confronted!
    The service assistant was telling me that this wasn’t a Warranty claimable fix! Than after it was done I challenged them why they had drilled 2 holes through my plastic surround and they said it was a common fault and this was Nissans official solution. Two faced service, they tell you that it’s not a warranty fix then admit fault due to manufacturing fault priceless!😂

      Classic example of the poorly thought out parts fitted here. To be fair to the dealership, they are just mopping up the turd they have been served, so unless they get paid by Nissan for the repair they are going to give the bare minimum. I like the fact the fix is to drill holes into a 28k car. This is a fix I'd do as a teenager on my Nova after picking it up for £50 with a few months MOT :) Priceless as you say.

      @awakawiateazrutyialocinadn5207 3 года назад +2

      I am a foreigner, but I could just say for Nissan, they should rather replace Renault with the Hyundai Motor Group - which mainly contains the Hyundai Motor Company and Kia Motors - as their technical assistand and stakeholder/mentor instead.
      Which means, if Renault cuts ties with Nissan - as well as Mitsubishi Motors - in exchange for Nissan to merge with Hyundai - which is now selling more cars -, therefore Hyundai being a mentor to Nissan could mean for the i20/Rio manufacturer to treat the aforementioned Qashqai maker like the way Opel is doing in regards of themselves selling their cars, e.g. Corsa, Grandland X, in the UK market as 'Vauxhall' instead . A type of excuse that is also an example of a company's national identity/pride, as with Vauxhall being restricted [only] to the British market, while Opel is available in not just the rest of Europe, but also in ex-UK colonies like Ireland, Malta, and Cyprus, as well as South Africa.
      Hence, the only reason why Vauxhall is deeply restricted to the United Kingdom market is because of the anti-German sentiment happened before, during, and after World War II.
      Which meant that marketing a German-named car manufacturing company on British soil could frustrate its sales, so the solution to resist the entry of Opel in the British automotive market was to favour Vauxhall instead, which has already been a household name in the UK's automotive industry even until Peugeot - now Stellantis with Fiat - took over the griffin - Vauxhall's logo - marque wayback 2017.
      Now, back to the issue regarding Hyundai buying Nissan - plus Mitsubishi, which supplied parts to Hyundai's cars in the past - from Renault's umbrella:
      The only reason for Hyundai, which bought Kia circa 1998 due to the impact of the Asian Financial Crisis, to buy and treat Nissan like Opel/Vauxhall is because of the point that Nissan and Mitsubishi Motors, a former supplier of technologies to Hyundai, are Japanese by origin.
      As Japan colonised and invaded Korea - the country of origin of Hyundai/Kia - from 1910 to 1945, which meant that the legacies of Korea's independence from Japan led Korea to freeze their ties with the Japanese. Resulting both countries to use and apply those ill-bred memories into their companies, e.g. Toyota, Hyundai/Kia, while they're competing with each other. Especially with Nissan already planned to withdraw the Korean market at the end of this year, leaving Hyundai/Kia to be the leader of the pack in the Korean automotive industry.
      Whereas for Japan and their automotive market, Hyundai - and not Kia - also has/had a presence in the Qashqai developer's country of origin. But, while Hyundai returned to selling passenger cars in the Japanese car manufacturing market back circa June this year, Hyundai's market share in Japan on the other hand is deeply smaller than Nissan.
      Which means, as with Nissan [still] being the second largest automotive manufacturer in Japan by terms of production, Hyundai's lineup in the Japanese market - following their reintroduction in Japan - in fact, is smaller in comparison to Nissan as well.
      As with Nissan selling smaller cars that were essentially licenced rebadgings of smaller Mitsubishi cars exclusive to Japan, since Nissan not just took over Mitsubishi back in 2016, but also Nissan started dealing with Mitsubishi for the sake of supplying their [Nissan's] automatic transmissions to Mitsubishi's cars in 2001.
      Moreover, that is how Hyundai could take caution if they could take over and treat Nissan - plus Mitsubishi - like Opel for the sake of selling their cars in the UK as a Vauxhall. So, the point is Hyundai/Kia is restricted to [South] Korea, but they will also sell cars alongside Nissan overseas, as Nissan is already selling cars alongside Kia through a joint venture in Indonesia called 'Indomobil Group'.
      Whereas, Nissan plus Mitsubishi will be restricted to Japan, thus Hyundai could also withdraw from Japanese grounds if Nissan favours themselves to take Hyundai's place in the land of the rising sun, as having said that both East Asian democracies are still yet deeply wed with national pride than globalism.
      Bottomline, if Hyundai could purchase Nissan from Renault's control, then Nissan could swap parts with Hyundai/Kia instead, making half of Nissan's cars - including Navara - to behave like Hyundais/Kias, but that could lead Nissan to push Infiniti - their response to Lexus - into cessation/bankruptcy instead. As well as killing off the GT-R, Z sports cars, and even other Nissan vehicles that are mainly saloons exclusive to the North American market, which is the biggest for both Nissan and Hyundai/Kia overseas due to the proximity between East Asia and the USA/Canada... - to be continued...

      @mastrasport 5 лет назад

      Hi William Brown,
      I am driving mostly in the town, so the verdict from dealer was those errors are caused by preasure getting too high on first sensor before DPF. Basically it does not maintain high temp for enough time to clean the soot from filter. They cleaned errors and adviced I take the car for a decent run. That actually helped, and have not had those errors any more. I have had similar issues before (check engine lamp on) when I did more than 1000miles city dring only. With the diesel you need to take it out for longer runs from time to time.

      Hi William, a 30-40mile motorway drive should do it. Of Course the longer the better. Battery is not a factor in my case as the original one was replaced as being from a "faulty batch" on the 2nd year of my warranty. So far I have had engine light on twice and it was both times due to congested DPF due to city driving. I guess I should go on out-of-town vacations more often ;)
