I would take the SUV to a good car wash that has under carriage cleaning.

Let the SUV dry and inspect it someone who can compress the front end.

If the front of the SUV re-bound two times then the struts will need to replace.

the front spark plugs are easy just remove the coil packs and there right there, now the back ones are a bit tricky if u want to tackle it yourself, because you have to remove the intake manifold to access the coil packs to remove the sparkplugs, i also recommend remove the cowling and wipers this gives u more room and opens the area up to make the job simpler, when removing the intake manifold try not to damage any connectors you should be able to find a do it yourself book at a automotive store but if at any time you feel you do not have the skill to do it successfully stop and put it back together

Check the wiring harnesses for bare or brittle spots. If none are found replace the spark plugs, all of them and spark plug wires. I know these are still fairly new but that is the next step. If you have over 60,000 miles on the vehicle it could be an issue with the timing chain but my experience tells me replace the crank Position sensor first if none of the other steps yield any results. Because these vehicles come with the power train warranties they do you can't really trust the Dealer Mechanics because they will do anything they can to prolong this to get the vehicle out of warranty.

You need to go to your authorized mechanic and have the a/c charged and tested for leaks.Radiator fluid gives you your heat so the a/c has it's own issue.As for the heat the heater core may need to be replaced.

To change the headlight bulbs, you will need to remove the wheel liner cover to gain access to the back of the headlamp assemblies. Then you can pull off the screw cap / cover that seals the bulb into the headlamp assembly for the bulb you want to change. Once the cap is off, you will need to disconnect the harness from the back of the bulb. With the harness off, you will then need to either twist a black lock ring to release the bulb, or you will need to push on a metal lever to release the bulb (this varies on models and high and low beams).
Install in the reverse order....

Try increasing the octane of your gas, i.e. from 87 to 94.

First thing I would do is check oil level. If its low fill to correct level. retry. Low oil level will cause cam actuators to stick & your problem can happen with SES light. Second I would make sure you got updated cam sensors from dealer. El-****-o sensors can cause this problem also. Third off If you can fined out what the codes are in the PCM...... Nissan ignition coils that start to go bad will do this also. Throttle body that wast or lost its programmed learn can do this also.... So please see what codes are stored will help the way to look.
