Recently reported ELECTRICAL SYSTEM problems on 2018 Nissan Kicks

Purchased 2018 nissan kicks with 1,000 miles on it on 08/16/19. has been to dealer twice now. clicking sound in speedometer area (started 2 days within purchase) which has been complained about 3 times and they keep telling me there is no reason as they cannot hear it (i have videoed numerous times) . within a week of purchase the a warning sign came onto dash stating unable to detect front crash sensor and within seconds front crash light appeared. at this time i was driving 25-30 mph and there was not a car in front of me for at least 100 years. husband took to dealer and they could not hear clicking sound but claimed it was the front sensor that could have been causing the problem and ordered new part. on 09/27/19 car was taken to dealer to replace front sensor - again clicking sound was mentioned to dealer and i was told again they could not hear it and it was probably the car waking up. since i let the dealer my front end makes a squeaky/creaking sound, and the accelerator has been delayed multiple times while driving and after already stopped to start driving again. very dissatisfied with this vehicle.

Front collison sensor keeps malfunctioning on a broad range of newer nissans including the kicks which could cause the vehicle to stop on its own. also, manufacturer should replace scratched up and malfunctioning touch screen radio units.

Purchased my 2018 nissan kicks new in february of 2019. have had many issues starting within 3 months of purchase. my first issue was while waiting at a light the vehicle cut off and took 3 attempts to restart. next issue was while driving the key light glowed as if the key was not in the vehicle. the car stutters and don't pick up speed. crash light and other lights coming on without warning or reason. have taken vehicle in after every issue and have left vehicle with nissan on several occasions and issues are still not resolved. this is a vehicle that they just can't seem to figure out what's going on with it. today 11/14/19 is my latest visit for the vehicle cutting off and not starting immediately after cutting off. the side door buttons have fallen into the door panel and still no resolution. i left the vehicle and i just hope that this time all my issues with this vehicle wil be resolved. very disappointed with nissan. i will never purchase another vehicle from nissan again.

Nissan kicks 2018 (bought july 2018) - problems with fuel gauge indicator and approximate mileage data. problems with fuel gauge after tank refilled and during moving. problem exists permanently and released in november 2018, just 4 months after buying. dealership service could not realize what is wrong with fuel gauge after more then 3 investigations. their software could not realize the reason of issue and how to solve it. risks - driver disinformation and possibility to stuck without fuel on highway. please see attached file: 1. car has a gasoline and fuel gauge indicator displays it, but "approximate mileage' displayed as - - - - km 2. 0.0 km and "approximate mileage' is 71 km. car refilled with a gasoline > fuel gauge indicator bar is not increased after gasoline refilling. 3. car moved 31.7 km. "approximate mileage" decreased only by 10 km, from 71 km to 61 km. but the car moved 31.7 km ! fuel gauge indicator bar added 3 more bars suddenly.

At random times when the car is started the engine starts but none of the instruments in the dashboard (digital gauge, sensors, etc...) including the stereo would turn on. in addition power steering is not functional. it takes several tries of restarting the car in order to get all the gauges, sensors, stereo and power steering to function. this issur can happen when the car is completely off and it is turned on. i even took a video showing the issue.
