| Description of the problem | The vehicle was purchased in 11 nov of 2016, the day of purchase the left passenger window would not go down. The new car was left at the dealer the day of purchase for repairs. Three plus weeks later, around 12/03/2016 i had to call to find out if the car had been fixed. No communication from the dealer. The car was picked up and used after repairs. 03/march 2017 while driving down the road my 11 year old son rolled the left passenger window down and the door came open while on the highway. I researched the recalls and there was a recall for the right door only. Research nissan had not sent to the dealerships.(recall number, 17v-040, recall date 01/18/2017) no notice of recall was ever sent to me nor was the dealership aware of the recall.
