Conrail, why choose that name? I would have thought snowdrop would have been perfect

That trail of water left behind in the middle of the screen by the wipers.

I OWN THIS VEHICLE so why am I prevented from permanently turning OFF the stop-start feature? I think this puts undue stress on the starting system leading to premature failure of some components (battery, starter motor ETC) which far outweighs (in repair costs) the saving made on fuel.

The rain sensing wipers are a joke in intermittent mode, sometimes wiping when no rain is present and at others not wiping during heavy rain.

BTW my car is a 2016 Tekna model.

What are the main reasons why Nissan Qashqai owners dislike the stop-start feature and the rain-sensing wipers? please let me know, I know this is an old discussion but the answer to my question is very important I am appealing to the admin. Please approve my post, Thanks

I have a J11b 2020 N-Connecta and with the Stop/Start my concern is the repeated load on the battery. My previous 2017 N-Connecta killed the battery after around 15,000 miles and 2 years of use which doesn't seem very good to me. Fortunately failed at home but inconvenient never-the-less. I now make sure (99% on the time) to disable this when setting out.
The auto wipers are clueless most of the time. They either fail to operate unless on the highest setting or once started will go to the fastest speed when not really required. Spend all my time either manually operating the wipers "intermittently" or having them on manual mode.
