The Nissan Cube I Loved is back -~- BROKEN! I sold it a year ago! 

One who has no common sense.

Probably an echo chamber thinking it was a smart decision

A Renault inspired one

Likely it was thought of but was dismissed for whatever reason

those senseless decisions are often driven by budget. the engineers' ideas are filtered by program management.

this channel is a little too popular to teach you how to break into one of these cars

@@oldfag_adventureseven better

Who would make a car that you can't open with a key? Say hello to tesla... He did show why the key didn't work. Stupid little electrical button died.

Your altima is before Renault acquisition. That's when Nissan actually built good cars. French ain't making cars.....

@@henrykim4230 I know 🙂 As for this Cube, do the inside lock controls also depend on electric power? Worse than not being able to get in your car, is being trapped inside it without electric power - especially after an accident! On my friend's '05 Audi, the key only unlocks the driver's door. His front passenger door lock has failed and it's been permanently unlocked for a couple years now. There's no key-lock outside, and the inside button appears to be electric, with no mechanical linkage. (I haven't checked, but wonder now if ALL his doors are like that!) There's a bunch of vehicles today using electric-only door locks and latches. Where's NHTSA when you need 'em?!

Normally, on an emissions inspection, even if the 'Check Engine' light stays off long enough to get tested, the test will bring up a "Not ready" warning and the car will fail, unless the problem stays away after multiple driving cycles!

It does 😂

I have noticed that the larger the engine attached to a CVT, the higher (and sooner) the failure rate.

Agree. My Chevys and wife's VW Golf have plastic pop-off covers too, covering keyholes. They are designed to be popped off with the key, and on the driver's side. Asked AI "How to unlock 2013 Nissan Cube Doors". AI said same thing we all said and that it's on the driver's side. Keep in mind that the battery in the Smart Key should be checked first.

If that was the case it would be that way on the drivers door also.

I was thinking the same thing :)

yup a pos! hahaha😂😂😂😂😂

the issue is not the suspension but the front crossmember. they are bushing mounted. they even have a link kit look bracket on ea side that will bang at every bigger bump. we have 2 for delevery. its also eating alot of fuel pump.

Can someone check this out? It would be in the owner’s manual, in the what to do about a dead battery section.

Connected to another micro switch or a mechanical linkage to the door look?

Have you sat in a Volvo before? I find Volvo's seats incredibly comfy but never sat in a Nissan before.

@@clover7359 yeah I’ve sold cars for like 7 years and have sat in basically everything. The cube still left an impression on me lmao. The seats are really flat and wide and soft so it feels like your grandmas old couch

Just picked up a 5spd 08 XB with only 46k miles. Hope to have it for many years

@@irsever that’s great!! They can go 300k plus miles. Note (and you may know this) the 08-2010 weee very subset-able to oil burning due to faulty piston design. There was a campaign fir ones burning excessive oil, but many did not take advantage of the updated pistons/lifters. Just watch the oil if t was never done on record with Toyota.

yep, I'm just checking the levels regularly, no problemo yet even on on full synthetic@@djkenny1202

Dime that recently with a hj60 i loved but couldn’t afford to fix…

My 2009 VW only has the driver side keylock, not even in the trunk. But that has never been a problem. Mostly because it's remote controlled by the keyfob anyway, and that one has never failed on me. It the battery ran out I can always use the keylock to open the drivers door. Normal stuff.

My '20 Blazer has it in the drivers' door end cap, you pull out the key from the "fob"....

@@TheOzthewiz yeah minis are the same, key is retractable, wizards point is the drivers door is the only door that has a key hole for the key, im saying if you take the blank cap of the passenger door there may just be an emergency access keyhole

My 2018 Versa Note had a dead battery one morning, and I was still able to open the driver’s door lock manually with my key.

In the US there are places that do not require emissions inspections. Kansas is one of them. There isn't a single county or municipality in Kansas that requires emissions testing. So you can get away with a check engine light for quite some time, especially if it doesn't affect driving quality. In my home state of Georgia, there are only 13 out of 159 counties that require emissions testing. Of course, those 13 counties are where the vast majority of the population live, but still... I live in a rural county that doesn't require emissions testing, so I could legally register and drive an emissions-failing vehicle, no problem. *Technically,* it's a violation of Federal law not to have a functioning emissions system on a vehicle that was equipped with emissions controls from the factory. But the Feds simply don't enforce that. They leave it up to the states, and as you can see, many states just don't bother.

Same here. 2018 Versa note. Had a dead battery one morning, and I was still able to manually unlock my drivers door.
