Reliability Issues: What's Going On?

I've been experiencing some frustrating reliability issues with my Nissan over the past few months and I'm curious to know if others have encountered similar problems. Specifically, I've noticed a recurring fault code related to the engine's timing chain system, which has resulted in repeated trips to the dealership for repairs. Has anyone else experienced issues with their Nissan's timing chain or other critical systems? What were your experiences with diagnosis and repair? I'd love to hear about any similar problems others may be facing.

I've owned three Nissans and had zero major issues with two of them. The third one was a Sentra that needed multiple engine repairs within a year. Now I'm hesitant to purchase another Nissan due to these reliability concerns, which seem to be widespread in my research.

I've owned three Nissans in the past and have had consistent issues with their electronics systems. The latest one, a Sentra, has already had to be recalled due to faulty infotainment software. This is not an isolated incident, it seems like Nissan's reliability has taken a hit recently.

I've had my 2015 Altima for 6 years now and I'm on my 3rd transmission. Yes, you read that right - 3 transmissions. The first one failed at 60k miles and the replacement was a recall fix, which also failed after 10k miles of driving with a weird noise coming from it. Now I'm waiting for the third one to get installed under warranty. I've had my fair share of other issues too like faulty sensors and strange engine noises but thankfully nothing major has happened yet.

I've owned two Nissans in the past and had issues with both - electrical problems and faulty transmission on the first one, and engine light came on at low mileage on the second. It seems like a design flaw rather than just wear and tear.
