The 8 speaker Bose system is the BOMB !!!!

Spend the extra 3 grand and get the SR version.....you get a sweet Bose sound system with fake leather seats that are very decent. Yeah, you can't win any drag races with the Kicks, but who cares? This is a very big bang for the buck at less than 25 grand !!!!

I am a small women and found the car a perfect fit for me..getting in or out..comfortable inside not overwhelmed just arm rest to short and narrow as I have to have my seat forward so far in order to be comfortable with gas and brake pedals. Minor inconvenience..definitely glad I chose my KICKS!

Sensor issues and ABS issues

I’ve had my Nissan kicks since 2020 and she has about 66000 miles on her. I was driving one day and all of the sudden all off her sensor light up. Take her in they say ABS and lane departure camera cost me over 5000 to get fixed. Not even one month later I’m driving her and she won’t reverse and guess what more lights. Finally get her out and she won’t accelerate took a while to get her home. Next day take her up to Nissan and now it’s the sonar control unit and the throttle body and MAF, they want another 2100. Talked to the mechanic at Nissan and his response is that the kicks have these issues all the time. Dealership wanted to try to get me upgraded to a brand new kicks. SMH, why would I want another if this is a regular issue. I could’ve taken my 7000-8000 and used a down payment on car that’s not going to keep having electrical issue after issue. I know I will NEVER get another Nissan again, I’ll stick to my Toyota’s.

Very underrated car!

I’ve had my 2020 Kicks for almost a year now, I’ve had absolutely NO ISSUES with the car. until about a month ago, but let me start with it’s a technology issue not an engine or CVT issue, thankfully. The crash sensors periodically flash at me but don’t beep at me. When I got my oil changed at around 3,200 miles we had them look at it and they explained that it could’ve kept flashing because something could have just triggered it but they ended up resetting it and told us to keep an eye on it. It flashed again but it was 26° outside when it started to flash I don’t know if that could’ve been what set it off I’m not sure I’m still going to keep an eye on it and if it ends up continuing to flash even if it’s not cold then I’ll have to take it in again. I also know that the front sensor crash warning will flash when it’s cold that is normal for all Nissans but however the whole thing flashing meaning the front crash sensor and the line detectors is not normal. But i love my kicks. It’s very comfortable and I recommend this car to anyone.
