welcome aboard. do you have any codes present or it's just the monitors that have not settled? If you have a code scanner get it to reset. 500 miles should have made all of the monitors have settled. Other members should be able to pitch in.

 

take it back to the person you bought it from and demand a refund they swindled you first before buying any new car from a shady second hand dealer take it to a shop to have it looked over bring a scan tool look it over initially first

first use the scan tool any codes and no light on the dash run any codes at all run... that will save you time no codes then ask to drive it to a shop and do a indipendant inspection if they refuse walk away.. if you buy off a individual then bring a scan tool bring still do the above if he refuses walk away.. if they make the excuse your not driving off with it understanable you can come too ill pay for your time ill give you 50 bucks to stand there for 1 hour etc or hire a person that does inspections in the feild.. never trust a seller

 

My father owns a 2019 Nissan Kicks w/around 49,500 miles. I had the ABS Module replaced [by Nissan] at the end of May & state inspection is due in June so time is just about up. It has failed 3 inspections. I have driven it a good 600 miles & it failed yet again. I took it to Nissan & they said there is nothing wrong w/it, I just need to drive it more. I then took it to Firestone, I was told that I have to drive it between 25/30 mph on one day & the next day I need to drive it on the highway between 50/65 mph until I drive it a little over 100 miles total; & when stopping, I have to stop for at least 5 seconds. I was told Kicks are finicky in "resetting" after repairs. The guy I have been going to for state inspections for years told me the exact thing the Firestone guy told me. I was also told most cars have a "workaround" but not Kicks.

 

your talking about the rediness state.. it takes up to 5 days to reset. some cars are faster.. some nissans a few drives but the newer ones seem to be 3 days or so... what you have to do is drive a variety of styles.. first from dead cold engine start engine let it warm up then drive around a parking lot or your neighborhood around 15mph give or take for a few laps.. then find a place where you can do 25 mph for a few laps... then go on the freeway do over 55mph for 5 miles or so.. then come home after your errands and let the car cool then do this the next morning same proceedure..\
the computer needs to see 15 mph then 25 then 65 variing rpm up to 2500 rpm from a dead cold engine to hot engine..

it does take some time id give it a month after just drving the 5 times i told you how to drive before you took it in after the 5 times just drive normally.. do errands etc.. that way your sure to have set the readyness codes.. you can confirm this with a scan tool.. evap-ready fuel system-ready etc etc these newer cars i found some are right away first drive but i had to do mine and it took awile i dont even remember how long.. but seemed like 5 or so cycles or a week of daily driving... if it still wont reset somethings going on and you need further diag possibly a new catalic converter or o2 sensor etc vacuum leak or sensor eavap purge valve etc.. somethigns going on

 

and the work around they are talking about isnt really a work around.. theres no way to tell the computer hey your ready its software some cars are like i said eaiser you can do it on the lift in the shop just run the engine then sit and do the test with the wheels spinning etc and its done or a day or so.... but firestone mechanics are like your buddy fixing cars i woulndt trust a word they say that and pep boys or anyone of thoes tire repair shops that do engine work... you want a actual shop independate non tire shop or the dealers advice..

me im a former nissan tech got 22 years i retired.. these new cars suck to many electronics to many problems how you luck out is just luck meaning you get a car with no issues or wont have any issues etc.. there is no money that can be thrown at them to make them better etc this is how the world works now they designed cars even expensive ones to fail

 

I took it to Nissan & they told me the same thing the Firestone mechanic said. I've just been driving it at different speeds on different days. Hopefully, it will pass inspection next weekend.

 

Check your owners manual. I found it in mine. Mine is 2019 so not sure if yours is different. Every time a power train part is repaired or the battery is disconnected, the vehicle may reset to not ready. Mine tells me how to check if it’s ready or pressing on without starting the engine. Watch what the engine light does. My car says if the engine light starts blinking after being steady, it’s not ready. If it it doesn’t blink and is just steady, it’s ready.
Mine says to visit a Nissan dealer to set readiness condition. You may have to go and show them your manual if they don’t believe you.
Mine is found under Technical and Consumer Information- “Readiness for Inspection/Maintenance Test”
