You canât always predict the weather when you head out for a drive. Sometimes, no matter what the weather report may have said, Mother Nature can make different plans. Nissan wants to ensure that their customers remain safe and confident behind the wheel no matter what the weather may bring which is why they have made Intuitive All-Wheel Drive available on all of the vehicles in their SUV lineup.
The efficient and impressive capabilities of this system were recently displayed in a new 30-second advertisement the brand has released featuring the 2016 Nissan Rogue. In this unique spot, a couple is seen driving down the road in their Rogue while a dark storm cloud follows them around wreaking havoc on the road around them creating a series of weather-related obstacles. However, they are able to overcome everything with ease thanks to the Intuitive All-Wheel Drive system.
You can see this new advertisement below and you can test drive the 2016 Nissan Rogue, Pathfinder, or Murano here at Younger Nissan of Frederick. We will also be happy to provide more information on the features and functions of this system.

National Tire Safety Week
In honor of National Tire Safety Week, Nissan has released a list of six helpful tips to help their customers to prolong the life of the tires on their vehicle. Tire safety is extremely important as damaged or improperly inflated tires can lead to serious issues. In fact, data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) shows that a tire that is at least 25 percent below the recommended level will be three times more likely to cause a tire-related crash.
“Checking tire pressure for just a few minutes each month can help protect your family, improve vehicle performance and lengthen the life of tires,” said Sarah Cardinali, senior manager, Product Safety, Nissan North America. “Our innovative Easy-Fill Tire Alert system helps drivers fill their tires to their recommended inflation rating with ease.”
Nissan Tire Safety Tips:
1.) Donât Overload – Do not to overinflate your tires since this has the potential to cause dangerous blowouts.
2.) Be Temperature-Conscious – Be sure to check your tire pressure more often during the colder months since the outside temperature can affect tire pressure.
3.) Avoid Obstructions – Do your best to avoid road hazards such as potholes and curbs which could cause damage to your tires.
4.) Know Your Target – Make sure that you know the recommended tire pressure level for your tires, you can find this information on the driver-side door jam.
5.) Rotate and Balance – In order to allow your tires to wear evenly you should have them balanced periodically and rotated about every 5,000-7,000 miles.
6.) Inspect visually – The best way to stay ahead of any potential tire issues is to perform regular visual inspections on your tires and look for signs of potential issues such as under-inflation, damage, or wear and tear.
Proper tire maintenance and safety is very important to Nissan which is why they created their Easy-Fill Alert System which takes the guesswork out of filling up your tires by having the vehicle monitor the process for you. Check out the video below to see how this system works.

Nissan is dedicated to ensuring that their customers remain safe and secure as they embark on their travels in a new Nissan vehicle. That is why they developed their innovative new line of Nissan Safety Shield Technologies, which all offer first-rate accident prevention to help stop an accident from happening in the first place, rather than only protecting passengers when they do. The brand decided to gain some expert opinion on these feature by inviting groups of  âhighly trained and experienced subject matter professionalsâ to join them for a test drive demonstration of these technologies.
The group of experts included a variety of individuals that have all experienced first-hand the results of the type of trauma an automobile accident can to drivers and passengers. These experts include Firefighters, E.R. Doctors, EMTs, Paramedics, Police Officers, Physical Therapists, and more. All of these experts were excited to see that the brand has created technologies that work to help stop these types of traumas from happening,
