What should I do after reaching 120,000 miles or 96 months?

What should I do if the registered key will not start the engine?

2018–2021

  1. Keep the ignition switch in ON for about 5 seconds; move it to OFF or LOCK, then wait about 10 seconds.
  2. Do that ON-to-OFF or LOCK sequence one more time.
  3. Try starting the engine again with the device that may cause interference held apart from the registered key.
  4. If it still will not start, put the registered key on its own key ring to prevent interference from other devices.

How often should I rotate the tires?

2005–2017

Rotate the tires every 5,000 miles (8,000 km), checking for damage and uneven wear during rotation.

How can I check whether the vehicle is ready for an emissions test after a repair?

2005–2017

After a powertrain repair or battery disconnection, turn the ignition ON without starting the engine.

The I/M condition is not ready if the MIL stays on for 20 seconds and then blinks for 10 seconds; otherwise, it is ready, and NISSAN recommends dealer preparation if needed.
