Nissan Cube Common Problems and Solutions
Tyre pressure problem
Problem:
A known issue on the Cube is for the tyre pressure to go down very quickly. This problem was the result of a failure with the TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) sensor corroding, which can be very dangerous driving on low pressure tyres.
Solution:
This problem was subject to a recall, where Nissan would fit a revised TPMS nut to resolve the issue.

Automatic window up switch failure
Problem:
It has been known for the automatic up window switch not to work, which means that you may have had to hold the switch in the up position to get the window up. This problem is due to a software failure.
Solution:
Resetting the system should fix the problem.
Difficulty level
Clunking/creaking noise from suspension
Problem:
If you have noticed that there is a clunking/creaking noise coming from the suspension, particularly when driving over speed bumps, or rough surfaces then the coil springs are most likely the problem.
Solution:
You will need to adjust the coil springs to sort this problem out. Sometimes lifting the weight off the wheels and spinning the coil around to a different position does the job.
