Description of the problem	I have had this car for 5 months and bought it brand new and it has been nothing but problems that nissan cannot resolve. On top of all of the recalls, brake and starting issues it now starting to fall apart. Recently i have been noticing a noise coming from the windshield almost every time i drive and especially when i am driving 60-75mph on the interstate. The noise i have been hearing sounds like small rock hit the windshield and at other times i hear a cracking noise. So here recently i was driving on the interstate at 75mph and hear something flapping on the windshield and notice that it is the rubber seal that goes around the windshield. So i pull off at the next exit and reattach the seal. The car is only 5 months old and nothing should be coming off like that. Also my car has black interior and it tends i be much hotter on inside especially in direct sunlight. One day i left my car parked in the direct sunlight and got it and the interior was pretty warm and i was going to plug my phone in and the a/c outlet inside the cubby under the radio and as soon as i tried to lift the outlet cover it cracked and broke off. I traded in my 2010 altima for the 2013 because i loved my previous altima and i had 60k on it and never had a problem with it. I thought i was buying quality and reliability when i purchased a nissan, but that has not been the case. I have had the car only five months and having mechanical, exterior and interior issues. This will be the last nissan i own, i will be getting a camry next time i purchase a car.
