No recalls found for the 2011 Nissan Cube.
The gas tank has malfunctioned and is leaking. According to the mechanic, it is the same issue related to the recall of the gas tank regarding the 2009-2010 Nissan Cube. My safety and others are put at risk because gas is leaking and causing a fire or an explosion. My mechanic confirmed the issue. At this point, the 2 Nissan dealers have not returned my phone calls. I need to get my car fixed as soon as possible. Gas is leaking from the site of failure. There were no warning lamps to signal that the gas tank was leaking gas. The only signs were the smell of gas and then discovering a puddle of gas pooling on the ground beneath my car.
On March 24, 2023 Friday, I was picking my child up when I noticed a loss of power and acceleration at the gas pedal. This was then followed by a loud, whining sound while in traffic. Luckily, we were not hit when the car lost power. I am mechanically inclined, and was able to deduct that the car went into limp mode. After further research, it is determined that the CVT transmission failed. This could have caused serious injuries to myself, my child, or whoever it may have impacted our vehicle, because of how it lost acceleration While in transit. Vehicle currently has 141,554 miles and it is a 2011 Nissan cube why does the recall affect 2009, 2010, it skips 2011 and then proceeds to carry-on from 2012 on up? What sense does this make , since it’s the same transmission in all of these vehicles? I am contacting Nissan USA to file a complaint, I have also confirmed this with an OBD two scanner. Today’s date is March 27, 2023.

AT 110K MY CAR STALLED. MID SUMMER 2020 I STARTED MY CAR IT BEGAN TO DRIVE THEN STOPPED MOVING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT ON LIBERTY ST IN SPFLD, MASSACHUSETTS. I HAD TO BE PUSHED OUT OF THE ROAD INTO THE CUMBERLAND FARMS THAT WAS TO THE LEFT FRONT OF ME. MY CAR WOULD START UP BUT THERE WAS NO POWER WHEN YOU PRESSED GAS IN DRIVE. IT WOULD TURN ON BUT WOULDN'T DRIVE. I HAD IT SENT TO NISSAN DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED THE TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED DUE TO CVT ISSUES THE BELT AND IT WOULD COST ESTIMATE OF $3500 TO REPLACE. I EMPTIED MY SAVINGS AND BOUGHT A NEW CAR. I STILL OWN MY NISSAN BECAUSE IT HAS LESS THAN 120K AND IS IN MINT CONDITION EXPECT THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE. I PAID FOR TOES AND RENTALS WHILE MY CAR WAS SERVICED AT NISSAN AS WELL.
2011 CUBE, REAR DOOR WILL NOT OPEN. NO DOOR HANDLE IN SIDE OF VEHICLE, NO WAY TO OPEN. THIS IS A REAL HAZARD. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS, FROM OTHER CUBE OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR
REAR BACK DOOR DOES NOT OPEN EVEN U U TRY TO LOCK & UNLOCK,JUST HAPPEND OUT OF THE BLUE .ALSO THE RIGHT DRIVER WINDOW ONE ROLL DOWN . THE OTHER PROBLEM THAT HAPPEN OUT OF THE BLUE WERE BOTH MY SUN VISOR DONT GO UP WHICH MAKE THAT A HAZARD TO SEE TRAFIC
PASSENGERS SEAT BELT BECAME UNBOLTED FROM BODY OF CAR. THE BOLT THAT HELD THE BOLT TO THE CAR AT THE FLOOR BY THE DOOR WAS JUST HANGING ON THE BELT. THERE WAS ABOUT AN INCH OF THREADS ON THE BOLT. IT MUST HAVE BEEN WORKING IT'S WAY OUT FOR A LONG LONG TIME THE PASSENGER WAS PUTTING ON THE BELT WHEN IT HAPPENED
MY CAR STALLED OUT OF NO WHERE WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. TRANSMISSION DIED AT 120,000 MILES.
UNDER 59,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME MY CVT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FOR $3,400. BUMMER.
ONLY A 103K AN ENGINE BEGAN TO MAKE A WHINING SOUND AND THEN JUST SLIPPING. DROVE IT THIS WAY FOR TWO WEEKS AND THEN IT WOULDN'T START REMOVE AT ALL. HAD TO SINK IN $3,000 FOR A USED TRANSMISSION. A NEW ONE WOULD HAVE BEEN OVER $4,000! EVEN MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WOULD NOT PAY FOR IT.
CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE. WILL NOT MOVE. CAR WAS RUNNING FINE I CAME TO A STOP, AND CAR WOULD NOT GO. THIS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES. NOW THE CAR WILL NOT MOVE AT ALL. NISSAN SAYS IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION. APPARENTLY IT IS THE FAULT OF THEIR CVT. I HAVE SEEN MANY MANY PEOPLE ON LINE WITH THIS ISSUE. I HAVE CONTACTED NISSAN AND THEY REFUSE TO HELP.
MY CAT TRANSMISSION IS FAILING. I ONLY HAVE 101K MILES AND A NEW TRANSMISSION ISN'T IN MY BUDGET. PLEASE GET NISSAN TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY TO 120K LIKE ON PREVIOUS MODELS. I HAVE 5 KIDS AND NEED MY VEHICLE TO GET THEM TO AND FROM SCHOOL. THE FIRST SIGN IS A HORRENDOUS WHINING SOUND. THEN SLIPPING AND FAILURE.
2011 NISSAN CUBE WITH JUST UBDER 100,000 MILES WAS FINE ONE DAY AND THE NEXT BARELY ABLE TO PULL ITSELF. MADE STRANGE NOISE UPON REVVING THE ENGINE. HAD TO BE TOWED FOR SERVICE. ALMOST $4000 LATER I WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION IS NISSAN PROPRIETARY AND CAN NOT BE REBUILT. VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT NISSAN IS CONTINUING TO HAVE CVT PROBLEMS. MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT EVEN THOUGH THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM HAD THE TRANSMISSON SERVICED AT 60,000. MAKES NO SENSE TO ME WHY IT WOULD GO OUT EVEN IF PROPERLY MAINTAINED TO INSURE NO DUST OR DIRT GOT INTO THE FLUID.
INVOLVED IN A FRONTAL CRASH WHERE SOMEBODY MADE A LEFT HAND TURN IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS GOING 40 STRAIGHT ON THE ROAD. SLAMMED ON MY BREAKS BUT STILL HIT THE TURNING CAR. THE WHOLE FRONT CRUMPED SO THE CAR WAS TOTALED BUT THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. *TT
SINCE NOV OF 2014 I HAVE DEALT WITH PERSISTENT START-UP ISSUE WITH MY 2011 NISSAN CUBE. THE VEHICLE SIMPLY CAN FAIL TO START AT ANY TIME AND WITHOUT WARNING. IT HAS PUSH BUTTON IGNITION. THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM JACKIE COOPER & NISSAN NORTH AMERICA. THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE AND UNWILLING TO SOLVE THE ISSUES DESPITE REPEATED VISITS TO THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THEY ARE ATTEMPTING TO IGNORE THEIR OBLIGATION TO FIX MY VEHICLE AS STIPULATED BY THEIR WARRANTY.
THE DOGBONE THAT HOLDS THE ENGINE, BROKE AND THE ENGINE WELL DOWN AND I HAVE TO GET IT REPAIRED, IT AFFECTED THE BRACKET TRANSMITTION MOUNTING, THE AXLE AND HAD TO REPLACE THE MOUNTS. IT COSTS ME $1,112.41 TO REPAIR. MY CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE CHECK MOTOR MOUNT FAILED.
