Hello,
Was driving home 2 days ago and literally every warning light came on one by one and my steering practically failed and had to wrestle it home somehow. As soon as I parked I turned it off then tried to turn it back on again and the screens just started flickering then the power died. No idea what to do as I can't drive it anywhere now. The latch that lifts the bonnet seems to have come off so it won't open the bonnet.
I did leave my headphones charging in the cigarette lighter by mistake so it may be that. Got the battery replaced in December 2017.
Is there anything I can do to check what's going on? Also, what to do if I can't actually move the car anywhere and the bonnet wont open?
Thanks for any help
Qashqai wont start. No lights at all

Hello,
Sounds like an alternator issue (this charges battery while car is running). Unlikely to be your battery. Also had this happen on my old car a couple of times - an Astra which were notorious for alternator problems and what happened each time were exactly the symtoms you described.
Hope you get back on the road soon
