Having Trouble with My 2017 Nissan Armada: What Are the Common Issues?

Discussing Common Issues with the 2017 Nissan Armada

I’ve been hearing a lot about problems with the 2017 Nissan Armada, and I’m curious to know if anyone else has faced similar issues. It seems this model has a few notorious problems that owners have been struggling with. Here are some of the major issues I’ve come across:

1. Transmission Failures

Many owners have reported experiencing transmission issues, including rough shifting and unexpected slippage. Has anyone found a reliable fix for this?

2. Battery Drain Problems

Another common complaint is about battery drain. Some owners mention that the battery seems to die quickly, even after a full charge. I’m starting to wonder if there’s a software issue they need to address to prevent battery depletion.

3. Crankshaft Problems

It appears that crankshaft issues have been mentioned in various forums as well. Has anyone here had a diagnosis or repair experience regarding this?

Final Thoughts

If you’re an Armada owner or you’re thinking about buying one, it’s important to be aware of these potential pitfalls. The more we share about our experiences, the better informed we’ll all be. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences!

I’ve heard many owners of the 2017 Nissan Armada reporting issues with transmission failures. It’s becoming quite common. Has anyone else experienced this?

That’s so true! My friend had to get their transmission replaced after only 50,000 miles. What a hassle!

In addition to transmission issues, I’ve experienced engine problems with mine. It’s a 2017 model, and it started making odd noises around 60,000 miles.

That sounds frustrating, christopher30! You should probably have a mechanic check it out to avoid bigger issues.

I heard there have been recalls for the 2017 Armada that might affect performance. Does anyone know the details about those?

Yes, several recalls involve the safety systems. It’s best to check with a dealership for any outstanding recalls on your vehicle.

I bought mine used, and I’ve been having problems with the brakes too. Is that common?

Honestly, every time I drive mine, I worry about it breaking down. It feels like a ticking time bomb sometimes!

I get that! It’s sort of like a dramatic suspense movie when you’re behind the wheel. Let’s hope they release some fixes soon!

I’ve also noticed electrical issues with mine, mostly with the dashboard lights flickering occasionally. Has anyone dealt with that?

I’m having issues with the dashboard indicators on my 2017 Armada; sometimes they just reset for no reason! Has anyone else experienced this?

Yes, I had the same problem! It turned out to be a faulty sensor. A quick fix at the dealership!

I’ve noticed my infotainment system frequently freezes and reboots. It’s incredibly frustrating; has anyone found a solution?

I hear you, andersonamanda! My infotainment system acts up too. A software update might solve the issues; that’s what the dealer suggested.

Unfortunately, the battery issues are common too. I’m on my third battery in this vehicle. Anyone else dealing with constant replacements?

Yes! It’s like playing a game of ‘Will it start today?’ Really frustrating.

I wonder if these electrical issues are all connected? I’ve had random warning lights pop up even when everything seems fine.
