Re: unknown switch function.

I'd go with aftermarket parking sensors, possibly front ones if they are switchable.

Re: Qashqai 2019 1.3 engine problem after thermostat replacement

Either the members on this forum are extremely unlucky and we are seeing all the reports here, or these are failing on a large scale as this post has a number of failures within a matter of about 3 weeks, probably representing a very small fraction of those Nissan owners affected.

Re: Releasing the Electric Parking Brake when the ignition is OFF

Ignition on, not necessarily engine.

Roadside assistance would connect a starter pack and turn on the ignition to release it.

If for some reason even the ignition wouldn't turn on, they could drag the car with the brake on.
